My main issue is auto dimming after 5 minutes although I don’t know if you can turn it off in newer monitors

Hmm not bad then, I have the gigabyte from the same era and I always do dark mode and as low brightness as I can read. No problems so far…

not worried about burnin?

Well if rumours are true Nvidia doesn’t even want to sell you 5070tis lol

Interesting, why did everyone stop shopping at MSY?

I think the 2 of you are talking past each other lol, but I believe the answer is not to race to the bottom on price like Techfast.…

I think the point is that smaller builders will struggle to weather any adverse events big or small, whether it’s a scandal or market…

There shouldn’t be any difference, maybe your computer doesn’t support dp1.4?

The Gigabyte one has both 2.1 and 1.4 and reviews say basically no difference in the image between DP2.1 and DP1.4 versions.

Yeah it’s strange how so many guys just mutter to themselves like they forgot the mic was on, there must be a reason for this phenomenon…

Umm thanks? I think you should keep it though, you're gonna need a lot to buy that 60% faster PC for $2k next year

> This is what $2399 got you mere months ago. and it would be reasonable to expect around 60% more performance at this $1999 price point in…

Well, yeah, it's going to be slower than a 9800x3d but you're not going to get that PC for $2k. And the 14700f is good for 250fps in…

I don't get it. If you're a pro gamer you would have a much larger budget and gone straight to X3D. If you just want a nice gaming pc on a…

I wouldn't go used if you can help it since older cards will probably not get the latest features/support in games eg FSR4, DLSS4 or run…

TLDR: blah blah blah no one cares because cheap cheap cheap

I’m going to be doing the same but it is kinda sad that after 5 years it’s going to be $500 more to only be 40% faster. Graphics cards…

Any recommendations? And is it because your favs are not as sweet?

IMO diplomatico is nowhere near the level of the Ron Zacapa but dictator 20 is quite close, both are quite sweet and very smooth.

Just got an update, they said they’ll post before the end of next week. Sounds like they will have enough for everyone.

OP wants the spot kept free in case guests come over.

If you want that maxed out 4k 144hz then the 4080, otherwise this is fine and better value.

Could be spotlight caching? It doesn't sound like normal behaviour.

Let’s not forget Internet Explorer and the monopoly lawsuits that made MS wake up

At least $1300, maybe $1500 if we're unlucky, and slightly faster than 4080

There's not really much room to drop, I'd be surprised if it's below $1250, 1300 when 5080 drops

Almost 1% is way higher than I thought, I thought it'd be closer to .1% considering it's so niche

DSC works perfectly for 4k 240fps.

Not sure what he meant but for me the difficulty level is a bit strange, for example I spent hours on the whiteclad noble whereas my friend…

Still a few available at vintage cellars but mostly sold out depending on store, saw Oban lagavulin talisker cardhu singleton around Sydney…
