BTC is at an all time high right now, thats why I just sold. Several articles said that after the halving, the new price should be in the $40s. Invest then?
Whats peoples general impression of BTC right now?
I think a whole forum dedicated to Crypto would be beneficial to the members. Theres always bitcoin talk around here (HODL???) so may as well put it in one place
So no idea why this is happening all of a sudden. I've used Chrome for years, and I've had this pc for the past 12+ months. Chrome is crashing my pc. It's random, and seems to happen when I click on a link or open a tab. I know its Chrome because I'll do a chrome action, then shit starts to get...
In my previous 6700XT, i set to hotspot temp and noise levels werent terrible. With the 7900xtx, when the hotspots are around 90C, it turns into a lawnmower. It's not defective, its just super loud. I am trying the undervolt game so TBD on that.
What do you guys do? Set the fan curve to core...
I have an Asus TUF X670E and the wifi module sucks. It crashes all the time, forcing me to keep Device Manager perpetually open so I can disable it and enable it. Maybe its hardware, but to me seems like software since the fix is a software one.
The wifi module is RZ608 Wi-Fi 6E 80mhz. The...
I have a reference AMD 7900XTX that works perfectly well, just a bit on the loud side. I am willing to trade it for an ASRok Taichi or Sapphire Nitro 7900XTX because those triple and quad cards have much better thermals/cooling.
Let me know if you want to offer something!
I recently bought a used EVGA 3080 FTW Ultra and at around 40-50% pwm, I often hear this grinding noise. I know its coming from the gpu because when I manually turn the fans down to 0, the fans stop, and the noise goes away. I put the fans at 20% or 70% and the noise also goes away. Only around...
So I just bought this EVGA RTX 3080 FTW3 ULTRA from a fellow [H] and I have no reason to believe he did me a dirty. The problem is that it is getting terrible FPS. In Horizon Zero Dawn, TechPowerUp has the 2080ti getting 75 FPS at ultra settings at 1440. So my 3080 should get at least that, and...
I have for sale my MSI Geforce 1080ti GamingX that I bought from fellow [H] terpsy in late 2022. He said he was the 2nd owner, so I am the 3rd owner. It has never been abused, mined, etc.. It sat in my HTPC and got light usage, truly a pampered life. Comes with all the original red plugs too...
I have a Corsair RMx 750x and I recently bought a 3080 that comes with a triple power connector (3 connectors of 2x8 pin). For all previous cards (including my 7900xtx), they have used a double connector of 2x8pin. I always thought that since the PCIe cable comes with that double head at the...
So for my hanging case build, I need right angle HDMI dongle extension because its a much cleaner look. I have tried a few on Amazon (Poyiccot) but I keep getting flickering. The cables clearly suck. The issue is that there doesn't seem to be any reliable brands.
What does [H] use?
EDIT:
Ok I...
I am looking to upgrade from my 1080ti for 1440 gaming on my HTPC. Looking for non-reference 3070/3070ti/6800/6800xt. Willing to pay around $300-400, depending on the card.
also, local to NOVA
feel free to pm. thanks all!
I am building an open air case for downstairs and it has to hang on the wall. The reason is that the wires go straight to my tv, and everything is behind the wall and off the floor. I originally got what I thought was a low profile be quiet! BK031 Dark Rock TF 2, and it is somewhat low profile...
Hey peeps,
So the wifey has a hand written calendar on the fridge, and I want to surprise her with a digital calendar, one that syncs to gmail etc.. I see Skylight makes a great solution, but it has to be plugged in at all times. I hate dealing with cables, and especially a cable on the fridge...
A lot of people are obsessed with 5.1, 7.1, directional audio every which way, and I get that, that's what I use my headphones for. But my Logitech Z5500s are for music only. Here, I want the same sound coming out of all 5 speakers. Nothing positional, just a 'dumb' feed, that I am surrounded...
So my Thermaltake Core P3 build is going well, I am almost done. The last thing I want is to really hide the power cables coming from the bottom of my psu. Is there like a funnel shroud or something I can install over it? I googled it, but they were all for internal cases. I'll be installing the...
So I am building a Thermaltake Core P3 and I like the placement of the cpu/gpu/psu. Its significantly slimmer of a full fat gpu riser, and since it's wall mounted and an outside case, I don't need that extra cpu fan to cool the 65W Ryzen 5600x. The issue is that the cylinder stands that the...
So I have a Thermaltake Core P3 that I am wall mounting. I want to make it as slim as possible, so I want to mount the GPU where the non-existing AIO would go. The mounting hardware I can solution through easily enough, but the PCI riser cable is vexing me. I know they make cables that are for...
Strange move. Why limit to MC? Seems like on Amazon/Neweggs these would sell like hotcakes. Still, kinda dumb to release a processor like a year+ after the previous one. And only $50 less? I would gladly pay $50 more for 2 cores and 4 threads...
Hmmm this interests me greatly. I had a 6700K that I delidded and was able to do a massive OC of 700mhz. Now obviously, the Ryzens wont be able to do that, but the temp drop does make me really excited.
My question is: how to delid? With my 6700K, I got a rockitcool guide that made it super...
Absolutely nothing to upgrade over, but cool that Noctua are including them for free in all future purchases. And I do question the part below where this will lead to higher boost clocks or reduced fan/noise levels. 3C is not anything anyone will notice
Cost is 'symbolic price'...
So I normally don't upgrade after only one generation, but an absolute sir here on [H] (sketch) was willing to sell me his ref 7900xtx for $825 shipped. I found this price to be fair, being that the venerable 1080ti was in the $700-$800 range and this was several years ago.
Test Setup:
Ryzen 7...
So wtf? 4k OLED 120hz tvs have been around for a year or three. Yet not a single one of them are 27". They all are 42" at the smallest. When will the gaming monitors with these specs come out?
Hey peeps, I am interested in a used non-reference, non-mined 6900xt or 3080TI, ideally for around $500 cash/paypal. I am local to NOVA. The particular brand doesnt matter as long as it won't blow up on me. Thanks!
Looks like no 7700s for now. No matter how much AMD spins it, this is not good news. They don't know how to position their product against an entire Tier of performance, so they decided to just abandon or postpone it all together. What a disaster. Not to mention that there is no 7800 series...

For those of you wondering about MSRPs of past cards with 2023 inflation in parenthesis. So with inflation, it's in line with the 2070 and 3070. Quite a bit more expensive than...

I have for sale my former
gaming pc internals, reason being that I just recently upgraded. Everything works perfectly and is in great condition. As you see below, the cpu is delidded. I used the official rockit tool part and it’s been rock solid. Your mileage...
Howdy all. With so many ‘Should I upgrade to Zen 4’ posts, I decided to chronicle all the things I experienced with my upgrade. This post details out the issues I faced, solutions, performance increases, gaming improvements, and lasting thoughts.

I have 2 nvme drives, one is the original 512gb that my OS Windows 10 is on. The other is my brand new SD850x 2 TB. I want to clone/os migrate everything that is on my smaller, older 512gb drive to the new SD850x bc its bigger and faster. I then will format the 512gb and use it for game storage...
I just upgraded my PC from a 7 year 6700k to an amd5 7700x. I changed the mobo, cpu, ram. Kept everything else including storage. They are:
WD_black pci 3.0 nvme (OS installed)
Wd_blue SSD
Wd_blue SSD
Wd_black sn850x nvme (newly installed for this build)
I can navigate around bios just fine...
I currently have a Noctua NH-D15 cooling my oc 6700k. I have had several noctua fans/parts over the years, and I have built up quite a collection. The problem is that it's all hodge podge.
Using only the parts in the picture (and whatever is currently being used by my d15), can I mount this to...
For the WIFI mobos I am seeing, half have antennas that directly plug into the mobo, and have are the 'movable' type which is attached via wires and you can move it around your desk as needed. I have a strong preference to reduce clutter, and since I'm not all that far from the router, I love...
In theory the regular price is $149, and I have no idea how accurate that is. But right now it's $99 at Amazon.
I have this for my gaming PC and it keeps my OC 6700k whisper quiet. I also removed the stock fans and put on two A12x25s
For those that don't know, this dual tower cooler is a...
I am planning a project in my basement that involves a wall mounted pc on an alcove wall. The sad thing is that this 24" wall is studless. Yet this is the only section I have where I can store the pc (long story). Drywall only.
This concept is getting nothing but good reviews on the internet...
I live in a split level home and we are trying to improve the downstairs. Currently, we have the entertainment system that I had since being a bachelor and thats what holds everything. The HTPC (fractal design C case) looks quite svelt compared to this unit. We want to get rid of the...
I currently have a 6700K (delidded) that is OC to 4.7 on all cores. The mobo is at 1.375v iirc. When the Ryzen 7000 X3D chip comes out, I plan on upgrading to that, and selling my cpu/mobo/ram here on [H]. Due to the nature of delids, OC, potential shoddy work, internet scams etc.., what...
I recently upgraded my HTPC, so the previous guts (CPU, GPU) are up for sale. These have never been mined, abused, OC, I am first user etc. Used in HTPC which was only occasionally on, def not 24/7.
