The thread which sometimes talks about RDNA2

Clearly you don't need 750w to run a 300w part so there's an assumption about the rest of the system the card will be put in.

My guess is that the assumption believes you are running a higher wattage CPU if you're going with the higher wattage GPU.

this was what I assumed but wanted to get clarity. Ive a superflower 650w psu and in the new year will be looking at probably a 6800xt and a 5900x. Mobo will have 1tb/500gb M.2 drives and only 6 argb fans connected so im assuming it will be fine and an aio cooler. Might change to custom wc loop eventually too.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x Super Flower Leadex III ARGB 650W 80 PLUS Gold Modular Power Supply - Black= £107.33

Total: £117.83 (includes shipping: £10.50)​

I run a [email protected] + 3080 both overclocked with a 650w no problem at all

5700xt owners aren't going to like this, but Dirt 5 needs more than 8GB VRAM at 4k, the 5700xt gets absolutely smashed. Nvidia 8gb GPU's seem to handle it better for some reason, AMD GPU's seem to loose the plot when they run out of VRAM

 

[Phate]

Ummm the 5700xt was never geared/marketed as a 4k card?

It was very clearly said to be a 1440p card...

 

[Dontrocktheboat]

It's 50% discount - from $1500 down to $999.

GSCE maths fail. 33% mate.

3090:=

50% more memory, though.
50% better drivers. Apart from the "modern looks".
50% more RT performance.
50% more productivity perf
50% better cooler.

Is it weird that there's no sign of these on the Ocuk store yet? They added the Nvidia cards and AMD 5000 series almost straight after their announcements.

Is it because they don't want to list them with high prices or slowly increasing prices?

You gotta twist the plot if you have an agenda like a certain someone does.

The interest rate is particularly bad ATM for OCUK. Especially because Zen3 CPU are coming out with a £50 OCUK tax in place.

I hope this is a Joke ... but

The only one of those we know for sure is the RAM, and the RT performance has been leaked not confirmed

50% better drivers - lol you cannot really quantify that
50% better cooler - are you saying it will be 50% louder or run 50% hotter

Its a bit of tonged and cheek fun

Does anyone know when Overclockers listed the 30XX series on their website? I'm curious to know which of the 68XX series they're looking to have at launch, and the prices of them - a week before launch on the 11th perhaps?

You’ll want to look at the prices 10 minutes before, not a week before as OCUK will start raising the prices for their regular new release gouging.

 

[Parsley]

But exchange rate.

Not if they open up to pre-order, but perhaps that's why they're not listing currently

They were listed immediately when Nvidia made their announcement.

 

[BogEyes]

Yeah, it's a strange how they're not listed yet.

I think you may have nailed it on the head. It's the only logical explanation really.

 

[Hotwired]

Doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

The CPUs have been up quite a while, with prices and they simply have not been on pre-order.

They could just have done that for GPU also.

 

[Phate]

Its not just OCUK though - others haven't listed anything. So it must be something from further up the chain IMO

I was going to say, this is happening worldwide so I have no idea why people think it's just an OCUK thing.

 

[BogEyes]

Yeah that's a fair point.

I wasn't intending to single out OcUK, rather UK retailers in general.

But I realise now if the products aren't listed in the U.S. yet where pricing has been confirmed, something else must be going on.
