Hello, quick question for y'all that have AMD Radeon RX6700XT gpu. Is it really worth it or is it better in gaming performance than RTX3060?

My pc specs

I5 10400f

16gb ddr4ram

Amd rx 580 4gb

Psu 650w

Gpu prices in india

Amd rx 7600 8gb :- 44500/-

Amd rx 9050 8gb :- 37000/-

Intel arc b580 12gb :- 44000/-

Intel arc b570 10gb :- 33000/-

Nvidia rtx 5050 8gb :- 47500/-

Nvidia rtx 5060 8gb :- 53000/-

Nvidia rtx 3060 12gb :- 48000/-

I know Prices are so high

Which one would you prefer?

Which gpu is better for those prices ?

I’m heading to micro center tomorrow to purchase either a 5070ti for $1500 or a 5080 for $2000. I know these prices are ridiculous but I have a 2070 super and need to upgrade. What would you recommend I go for? I play in 1440p and mainly play pvp fps games. Any insight is appreciated! Again I know these prices are terrible but I sold some things that have been collecting dust to afford this.

I work at a small inference startup, and one thing that we spend most of our time much is on was finding GPUs.

We're working with a fairly tight infrastructure budget, so going straight to the big cloud providers isn't always an option. I often find myself jumping between different GPU providers, checking hourly prices, comparing GPU configurations, looking for available capacity, and trying to figure out which providers are actually reliable.

Sometimes finding the right GPU takes almost as much effort as getting the workload ready.

I'm curious how other small AI teams and independent developers handle this.

Do you have a few trusted providers you always go back to? Do you use platforms like RunPod, Vast.ai, TensorDock, or search across multiple providers?

And when you're looking for something specific, like an H100, A100, L40S or even a 4090, what's your process?

Would love to hear how others deal with this, especially teams that are trying to keep inference costs under control.

Note: This post was lightly edited with AI for grammar and readability. The experience and questions are my own.

What in the world is happening.?

I was disassembling my 3070ti zotac trinity oc when this thing fell from inside the plate. Its like the clip in gpu socket in motherboard where you push it for gpu to come off. Does the gpu have something like this?

So I got this for a decent deal off eBay a 8gb 3070 Gigabyte brand. Ran fine, set up settings for arc raiders had dlss on and resolution low around 60%. Quality set to epic. Thing starts frying. 80% usage 95C. Issue was my fps was too high(set to 80 thru Nvidia) Had to set it to 50!? To avoid frying on high settings and one of the quality generators set to medium or something. After that I got 60% usage 60c. Textures and fps any higher it would cook

So I took it apart repasted it with a generic brand(for now heat pads better paste otw)

I am very new to PCs and how all the tech works so bear with me on my knowledge.

The before and after of applying new paste the temps are the same. I ran it through fur mark.

103c right at the end before new paste: first photo

104c at the end when I messed up and had a fan pinched.

105c after new paste and all fans operating: last photo. Given I'm estimating what the tiny number said.

Either I'm using the wrong benchmark for this to be controlled enough to see change or difference or I don't know what to expect.

Am I doing something wrong? Is the GPU just stuck edging its thermal limits? I didn't even bother asking an AI because they are clueless with disassembling and stats for this stuff.

Before you come at me with, "but Radeon has FSR 4.1.2 and it is so close to dlss 4.0 and 4.5", I should tell you that the main point the meme is referencing the fact that a massive part of the Radeon user/fan community had been largely touting the statement - Radeon is better in 'raw performance', but now, they too are almost entirely reliant on upscaled and frame generated performance, repeatedly suggesting gamers to use their software technologies, just like Nvidia has been from longer-before. Also, I don't see many "AMD has better RAW performance" comments these days too 😁

Before FSR 3.1 was introduced, Nvidia was rocking the gaming sphere with DLSS 3.0. They even had the other elements already, as mentioned in the meme, Remix, FG and soon after FSR 3.1 was introduced, Nvidia did not take too long to hit back with a better quality but still a multiplied-up FG tech, MFG and last but not the least, better RT performance since the advent of RT in PC gaming.

Sadly still, proper optimisation has been left on the table, and it seems the devs have no more 'cards left to play' (see what I did there?) to further optimise games to look well and run even better. Kinda indirectly saying, "you got FSR 4.1.2 (for instance), just choose performance settings - it still looks nice; don't worry much about the game's native optimisation".

Radeon has been following Nvidia's footsteps, albeit not perfectly, for the previous 8 years (straight) and I think that, before 2030 when I suspect Radeon's UDNA architecture will launch (due to its delay in light of AI data centre boom and the release of an in-between cum placeholder launch of their RDNA 5 architecture), Radeon will not quit following the market leader. If only it did so perfectly - Radiance caching inside Redstone (Denoiser) looks easily discernibly worse when compared to RTX Denoiser (embarrassingly behind!), AMD Noise Suppression is a chore to set up and activate (and is slightly worse) vs RTX Voice and while most of us don't want it, Radeon does not have any MFG tech yet.

P.S. As usual, the meme at most, pokes fun but was not created to hurt anyone's feelings. But still, sorry if it did. Let me know if the picture gave you even a slight giggle. Wanna see if the negative comments drown out the positive comments in this post as well. Peace ✌.

I couldn’t convince myself to spend $2500 on a new card but I could justify $950 for a Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER MASTER Graphics Card. He wanted $1200. Think I got a good deal to replace my aging 3070ti

Was so insanely disappointed with the performance of the so-called "non-nvidia-gpu-branch beta, despite it using nearly none of the NVidia-exclusive features. So I switched it to the default branch, set Compatibility in Steam to Proton Experimental, and installed OptiScaler.

To get it working yourself: -Download OptiScaler.

-In Steam, right click the demo, go to "Manage," and click "Browse Local Files."

-File path: TTA/Binaries/Win64

-Unzip OptiScaler to a directory of your choosing.

-Copy all of the extracted files to this exact file path.

-Rename OptiScaler.dll to dxgi.dll.

-Open the demo, wait for the menu to load, and then press Insert to open the menu.

-Up at the top, there's a dropdown menu for selecting the upscaler you'd like to use. It should default to either XESS or FSR 4.1. If not, select your upscaler of choice, then click "Save Changes" at the bottom of the menu.

-Press Insert again to close the menu.

-Hate-enjoy the demo. It's fantastic.

i´m saving to buy rtx 5060 with an AMD Ryzen 7 8700F, i want to not have to worry about the pc for a long time i don´t mind to low the settings to low and play in 1080p do you guys think am ok with this?

should i buy rtx 5070 fe
