Well done!
This is a good deal considering tsmc is hiking the prices by up to 10-20% later in the year.
Only to new clients - not existing ones. Won't affect AMD.
This still isn't good for an Acer X34P is it?
I'm locked in with NVidia if I want screen tear gaming on this monitor?
That screen is compatible with Freesync ( AMD ) as well as GSync ( Nvidia )
Don't listen to the above, it definitely isn't, uses a hardware Gsync module
https://www.acer.com/ac/en/GB/content/predator-model/UM.CX0E…
"Adaptive Sync provides artifact-free performance. It is compatible with both NVIDIA® G-Sync® and AMD FreeSync™ technologies when used in combination with select NVIDIA/AMD graphics cards"
I thought this was a triple burner/induction plate like they use at buffets to keep the 3 pots of pumpkin, mushroom, and chicken and corn soup warm.
Out of stock in eastern states, can we still order?
Yup, in on the 9th Sept
2 grand for a graphics card…. Sorry but you guys must SERIOUS enthusiast or just plain mad haha.
But the Encoder is garbage.
Will I be able to run this with Skylake Core i5 and PCIe Zen 3? Don't have money to upgrade entire PC and I will do so over time stage by stage. Thanks in advance.
Radeons tend to do better with older CPUs due to hardware scheduler instead of software found of the likes of Nvidia cards.
Seriously, call me old or what.. But why on earth would people spend that kind of money just on gc?!! i remember I used to be able to build a basic gaming system for 2k…madness
Yes but back then video cards didn't have the capacity to make you money unlike today. Technically mine has already paid itself off since it was mining on the side.
This is a very high end gpu though
You also used to buy a house for about 50k, and I used to wear an onion on my belt, which was the style of the time.
What of it?
So which is the better card this or the ASRock Phantom which is back in stock now?
Bought it. Now I have to decide if I should cancel it or not
This one has a better cooler but the Phantom has 3 8 pins so it won't run into any power limitations. If you're more of the undervolt type then the MERC is for you if you want to overclock it then the Phantom.
Well.. I gave up and bought one.
Now I can finally stop checking prices, adding something to my cart and then changing my mind.. Rinse and repeat
you can still cancel and reorder
This or 3080?
Depends
If you want raw raster performance, this is a fair bit better
If you game at 1440p, this is betterIf you care about ray tracing, rtx 3080 is the way to go but 6900xt ain't too bad if you don't mind dropping the resolution and quality settings down a bit
"6900xt ain't too bad if you don't mind dropping the resolution and quality settings down a bit"
Exactly what you want to hear when you drop $2000 on a GPU lol
How did I miss this deal.
Anyone who ordered… Has your card shipped yet?
mine has progressed as far as "being processed"
Mine is still sitting at "awaiting processing" no progress at all. Money is of course out of my account. I'm in Brisbane and I chose the free shipping option from Melbourne.
Update… Mine shipped today
Still no progress. Are you located in wa?
@Megahowler: I think that is the same warehouse that I had to choose. Maybe today. They said ETA 9.9. I ordered about 12h after the deal was posted.
I also have an ETA of 09/09/21. Has anyone else with this ETA had theirs ship from the Melbourne warehouse (Dandenong)? I'm still at 'awaiting processing'.
I contacted support. They are expecting cards to arrive tomorrow, 10/9, from another store and should ship early next week.
I hope you're info is correct, my ETA just updated to 16/09/2021
When did you place your order? Still no updates here.
Early Monday am - order just shipped so 16/09 must have been an automatic update after 09/09 passed.
Received notice that mine shipped today. I've got a bit of stuff off PLE over the years and never had any problems so everything should be good.
I got my card today..
Now I've had to buy a new power supply.. I forgot the PC it was purchased for only had a 550W in it (whoops)
Battlefield 4 runs fine.. But any stress testing crashes the PC almost instantlyGoing for a quality 850W :)
For this card you need a minimum 750w, some good 6900xt can reach 23000 time spy score, even better than any 3090 overclocked.
Mine shipped too on Friday.
Anyone from Greater Sydney area, received your Card? Mine was shipped on 6th, I am still waiting. I selected StarTrack Air.
I received mine today, Brisbane area.
I picked mine up today. Awesome performance but mine causes a hektic buzzing sound through my speakers when playing games/doing gpu intensive tasks. My 3070 didn't make any buzzing sounds at all. It is not coil whine.
I use a USB DAC so I'm very surprised its an issue…Try swapping it for a new one I guess? :(
15 Days since I placed my order (StarTrack Express), Still haven't received my item. I live in greater Sydney area.
Anyone elses card arrive like its been opened before? Mines got torn box tabs, tape on the plastic is full of carpet fur, and the card is scuffed on the corner :/
