She's hot and noisy.
Just like I want on the bed
Did someone summon me?
dafaq created 2010 they stole your name bro
For Mini ITX formfactors really. You're not gonna stick a dual fan in those.
Or a Corsair Obsidian Series 1000D
Might need a bigger case TBH
Single dual ball bearing is also better than dual sleeve bearings for crypto mining.
Yesterday was like Gigabyte today, would today be ASUS day, lets see
tomorrow will be EVGA day then …
HODL, not HOLD, HOLD, Not HODL, HODOR
Can someone please explain this to me (I'm familiar with GoT, but not how it applies to overpriced GPUs)?
HODL - Hold on for dear life, essentially waiting until it becomes more or less "socially" acceptable to purchase at what the majority would consider a reasonable price.
Gotcha! Cheers for that.
if you have been checking out the ozbargin gpu posts
alot of pople are saying HODL or Hold, keep waiting for the prices to drop
i just added the Hodor for the hell of it :)
It started when someone in the bitcoin forums mispelled HOLD as HODL, and it stuck around as a meme.
basically HODL until its sold out and you got nothing left to buy…
Feel so bad… paid $160 more a few months ago ..lol on the plus side i sold me 5600XT for $500 … win some you lose some
Also you need to undervolt this and keep the fan speed down for it not to be noisey … so i wouldnt recommend this card personally.
Can’t you use one of those fan programs like Afterburner. Setup you own fan profile.
I did that back in the day on an 8800GT, not to keep it quiet, it was to stop it catching on fire,
yep that is what i used to tune it.. also just realised this isnt the MSI Aero but it'll be the same crap hehe
Whats the benefit of 12gb on a 3060?
There is none according to everything I’ve seen and read, purely a marketing gimmick.
Probably student modder lol
Mostly marketing?
12GB! I've seen cards with similar amounts costing thousands! This must be a very good deal!
Only guessing, but don't games like FS2020 make use of lots of VRAM by preloading textures?
Not at the 1080p resolution the 3060 will be playing the game at.
What about at 2K though? My ageing 1060 manages 2K at moderate settings, albeit with frame rates around 30-35. I'd imaging then the 3060 would be quite capable of playing it at 2K.
@Boodek: 1080p is "2k" and 2160p is "4k". There is also really no such thing as 2k or 4k, they're marketing names.
Here's a benchmark if you're curious, it seems to handle 1080p ultra quite well. The VRAM allocation shown is a little misleading as there's a big different between VRAM required, usage and allocation.
It makes the 3060 Ti look really good by being ~20% more expensive but offering ~35% more performance thanks to the high cost of VRAM.
You get a bigger epeen by having more VRAM.
Deep leaning and other professional work can use lots of vram, this is the best budget deep learning card imo
HODLHR
FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.
Can someone please buy a GPU to save us from all these GPU posts!
THINK OF THE CHILDREN
You could always contribute to the bargain pool to dilute it.
HODL IF YOU CAN!
Been doing that with my Dogecoin since buying it at 60 cents. You think I get lambo soon?
Almost almost, I can feel it Phil Collins style…
Don't get me wrong. I bought it
What the heck is this? GPU for ants?
They dropped the price by $0.20 just before 6pm, from $638.90 to $638.70. So it is now $542.90 after discount.
By the way how can you tell it's LHR? It doesn't say, or all 3060 are LHR now?
V2 I think maybe LHR
I instantly assume all new cards are LHR anyway
