    Does LHR have any effect on use as a gaming PC? What is the purpose of reducing use of these GPUs for mining?

    I did a quick search on LHR as I hadn't heard the term before and still a little confused.

    Looks like a great deal otherwise.

    Cheers!

      LHR halves the mining rate for Ethereum using the main algo or whatever its called. Makes it unattractive for miners.

      Makes no difference in performance for gaming.

        Thanks. Why does the manufacturer want to do this? What does the manufacturer not like about mining? They will sell the product regardless. Just curious, as I didn't know manufacturers would want to deter anyone from purchasing (profit wise).

          Because miners will non-stop keep buying GPUs which 1) drives prices up 2) makes gamers angry since they are always OOS

        • Caped Baldy on 04/08/2021 - 13:57
          +2

          Miners were taking GPU stock with the use of bots. So less went to gamers. The limited GPUs would take longer to recoup the costs.

        • OpticalCog on 04/08/2021 - 13:59
          +4

          There is a significant shortage in GPUs as a result of multiple factors (including global chip shortages d.t. pandemic and crypto mining) the large number of GPUs being used by miners has made it difficult for gamers to get graphics cards - which upsets them and makes them think less of nVidia as a brand/company.

          It also has implications on nVidia when it comes to reporting their sales - i.e. if they were to sell all the cards to miners and none to players shows in their company results as a significant decrease of gaming revenue, given the volatile nature of the crypto industry, investors would probably prefer seeing growth/stability in the gaming revenue compared to that going to miners.

        • PiratePete1911 on 04/08/2021 - 14:25
          +18

          A lot of people above said to get more cards in to the hands of gamers which is incorrect. Nvidia waited a very long time to do this even though they proved they could with the 3060 at the beginning of the year.

          They have only just pushed LHR now because they are releasing mining only cards for double the price so if miners want them they will have to pay nvidia loads more money.

        • Jimbuscus on 04/08/2021 - 17:38
          +4

          They say it's to ensure more cards go to individual gamers ethically, but it's more to reduce future used sales.

          Miners will always sell their cards when they are no longer profitable, it doesn't make sense not to for a business. Gamers are more likely to give theirs away or not go to the effort. It's also more likely that the gamer will use the GPU for much longer than it would be hashrate efficient, meaning the cards would be less competitive against new gens.

        • BargainKen on 04/08/2021 - 19:54

          So they can sell mining cards to miners. The mining cards are sold significantly more than gaming cards with virtually no resale value post mining boom. At least with a graphics card it can be reused and resold for gaming.

          Take a look at the 30Hx for example which is said to be a 1660 equivalent. Mining card $699, 1660 can be had for 500-600 and thats with inflated prices.

          https://www.mwave.com.au/product/gigabyte-nvidia-cmp-30hx-d6…

          Nvidia couldn't care less about gamers, anyone who thinks they do are deluding themselves. Its all for profit.

      • ashftc on 04/08/2021 - 14:34

    • Caped Baldy on 04/08/2021 - 13:52

      No issues with gaming. Will possibly impact resell value. It is meant to only affect ethereum mining but that should only be mineable to the beginning of next year.

      • buffalo bill on 04/08/2021 - 14:34

        Pretty soon LHR cards are all that will be on the market. A year or 2 down the track this is unlikely to factor into card buying decisions.

      • justtoreply on 04/08/2021 - 16:39

        • Caped Baldy on 04/08/2021 - 17:00

          I thought it was meant to have happened by now but have heard proof of stake is sometime in the new year. I think you can keep mining and that would more than make up the difference. I'm getting $4usd per day on a 3070 so about $150aud a month.

      • klownz on 04/08/2021 - 17:56

        LONDON hardfork is in like 24hours, that might impact block reward for ETH farmers.

    Is this good for 4K video editing? Currently in the market for one :) TIA

    • OpticalCog on 04/08/2021 - 14:03
      +2

      Depending on the footage size you are working with and how you plan to store it, may need more RAM (if you are working on large/multiple video files at once in the editing program) and more storage (SSD +/- Hard Drives to store the footage).

      Both of these could be upgraded later if needed and this system for the price would handle the editing well enough imo.

      • Ohreally on 04/08/2021 - 14:12

        Thanks opticalcog for your response.

      • Zackeroo on 04/08/2021 - 14:14
        +1

        I second this, 16GB of RAM should be the minimum imo, and for video editing it's usually a must to have additional RAM.

        • Ohreally on 04/08/2021 - 14:55

          Thanks Zackeroo

    • ywpn on 04/08/2021 - 14:24
      +2

      Short answer: Yes - as long as you're using proxy video (e.g., 720p) for complex timelines and then encoding in 4K OR you're only making a handful of edits on your timeline.

      Long answer: Based on my experience, it depends on the following (and probably other factors I'm missing):
      -software you're using,
      -bitrate/file size of your 4K video,
      -how many videos you're using in your timeline,
      -amount of cuts/edits/chops/changes you're making to the video.

      I'm using a Ryzen 2700 (8C/16T), 32GB RAM (3200MHz) and for 1080P edits on Davinci Resolve with ~30-50 cuts/edits/changes and multiple videos on the timeline, it gets pretty sluggish, so 4K will get sluggish quicker.

    I was looking at this myself. Apparently the 10700k runs really hot and that cooler might not be enough, needs like a 240mm AIO for gaming I feel ?

    10700k performs ahead of 5600X from my research - but at higher power usage and heat generation (has 2 more cores).

    Got in touch with customer service via email to see if I could get an AIO upgrade and the response didn't really make sense.

    Research on case also suggest it has restriction on air flow.

    • alz on 04/08/2021 - 14:31

    5600x beats it in single core performance and runs at 65c-70c under full load so it's better for gaming in most cases. But the i7-10700k would be better for multitasking or if the extra cores are required.

      better looking for 3060ti+ your Sim game benchmark videos.

    • UltimateAI on 04/08/2021 - 17:02

      I have a 3060ti, and this is a great card for Flight Simulator at 1080p on high settings.
      If you don't mind lower frame rates, 1440p on high is still very playable.

      I might get shot down for this, but I like to play at 1080p connected to a 4K Sony TV. Sony (as do a few other decent devices) have great in-built 4k upscaling with no performance hit. I believe Flight Simulator may support DLSS now (which is basically 4k upscaling), so I should try it and compare.

      I used DLSS on Cyberpunk and found it superior to the TV upscaling, but older titles like GTAV that don't support DLSS I have found 1080p to look absolutely brilliant using the TV upscaling. Like when I test with 4k, I really can't tell the difference and not worth the killing performance.

    • UltimateAI on 04/08/2021 - 17:15

      While cheaper (and far better value) both would deliver similar performance (without DLSS), with DLSS the 3060ti offers much better performance,
      Unfortunately, the Series X still takes a quality hit on the textures, shadows and reflections (could be addressed in the future but we can only go on what is out now).

      But again for the value, how could you dismiss the Series X for less than the GPU price alone for slightly less performance and less hassle.

      PS: Lots of talk though of Microsoft working hard to improve the performance of Flight Simulator on older hardware. Optimizations and more processing off to Azure.

  • Canberralad92 on 04/08/2021 - 16:49

    If it was 11th Gen Intel CPU and actually took full advantage of the B560 board it is in this would be a great buy. Weird they didn't just put in a b460 to match the 10th Gen CPU.

  • UltimateAI on 04/08/2021 - 16:53

    Low hash rate cards won't really affect re-sale, people will assume the GPU wasn't used for mining. Many studies have shown GPU's used for mining lower the GPU performance by 10% per year. (Yes there are exceptions where someone undervolts and takes care, but not the bulk of the miners who have been buying all the GPU's)

    Miners want the most profitable cards, typically the latest, but not always. Ethereum moving to POS will do more to lower GPU prices (new and old), so expect any GPU re-sale to be lower in the future LHR or otherwise.

    LHR cards can still be great for mining, plenty of other algorithms where their performance is not lowered.

    TLDR, don't be put-off by LHR if the price and quality of the card is good.

      • UltimateAI on 04/08/2021 - 17:24

        I can tell you the pro's don', they overvolt. As profitability reduces by the day they run them extremely hard. Only a home miner or someone with power concerns.
        But even in Australia miners use cheap power, undervolting is leaving too much money on the table.

  • conza on 04/08/2021 - 18:01

    I think it's all pretty decent really, keep in mind.

    Case is meh, it's closed at the front and the MSI upgrade might be worse, definitely don't go for it. Buy with budgeting for a proper case and a couple of case fans in mind.

    Motherboard is a B560 chipset, won't allow you to overclock the 10700K, I don't think that matters too much but you're paying for a K chip and won't get that feature from it, it'll probably still boost ok on it's own.

    Which RTX 3060ti is it? Might be answered here in another comment but can't find it easily on the website, good luck. Picture shows MSI so it's an MSI card, why not say that?

    650W PSU, by a bigger oem like Inwin is more promising than a no name, but I'd still want to know who makes it and how it performs, also it's "only" 650W, would be great to have a 750W option for future upgrades as the next gen of CPUs and GPUs are likely to be in the higher wattages still.

    Which ram? What are the timings? Is it low profile, RGB? What is it? Again picture shows T-Force RGB so why doesn't it just say that?

    500GB NVMe SSD… PCIe Gen 3 or 4? Who makes it? This one isn't pictured (afaict).

    So lots of questions, but if the answers are fair enough, then the value seems, fair enough.
