Ah. Cause my gc is Nvidia. Not amd. So I think it's using g-sync

I used AMD card on G-Sync monitor, or Nvidia card on freesync monitor, Intel Arc A380 on G-sync monitor as well. No issues.

AA is official distro for Kingston products.

Convergent distribution is also the distributor for Kingston. I RMA KC3000 2TB with them a few months ago.

RTX3060 12GB or RTX 5060 Ti 16GB. Before you think about 8GB cards, just watch these videos before you decide.







It will happen to RTX 5060 8GB as well.

Just get Kingston KC3000 for your SSD. It still has the best price/performance/storage for your money.

Unfortunately it is out of stock. RM1299 is worth it! You still need at least Ryzen 7000 or Intel 14th gen for it to work properly as well.

IF you got app that can utilise all 16 threads, better go with 9700X as the thread load is easily balanced by Windows. X3D CPU only has 3D cache on 1 CCD so workflow will be unbalance if half goes to the 'faster' CCD and the other process goes to 'slower' CCD. If you do video editing stick to nonX3D.
*
7800X3D and 9800X3D is a single CCD CPU. There is no balancing.

Indeed but if I had only RM 1500 and not a dollar more to spend, I know which I would choose and Team Red just doesnt cut it

Another option. Save RM600 more and get RTX 5060 Ti 16GB. Best of both worlds. VRAM and performance. This is better than buying another card in the future when too many games crosses 8GB. Also, the second hand value is better.

Indeed then why not top up for a 5070 or topup to a 9070XT or top up that for a 5070TI or more for a 5080... theres no end were going that route.

Budget tier GPUS exist to cater for the majority buyers where topping up more doesnt make financial reason or perhaps working on a strict budget cap. Its why 60 class GPUS are the bulk seller and most popular used.

5060TI 16GB emm... has very poor value. Its priced at upper mid tier as most xx60TI class are but perf cannot beat previous gen 4070 so it give even poorer gen on gen uplift compared to 5060. Its only value is its availability at/near MSRP compared to 9070/XT.

Sure, if you want to spend even more time saving more. But do people have that patience? Did you see me asking people buy RTX 5090 when people shopping for RTX 4060? Once again, I will not recommend and help Nvidia selling garbage 8GB on the year 2025. Don't wanna feed their greed. Saving cost on 4GB VRAM and still selling high price is not something you want. Remember 3060 12GB, or Arc B580 12GB? Once you start hitting 8GB wall more often, you have to buy another graphic card again. Thats even more expensive.

Plenty. And it will keep increasing. If you wanna tell people to buy a new graphic card in 2025 at RM1.5k to reduce setting, be my guest.

Its easy to tell people "dont buy that RM 1.5k GPU go buy that RM 2.2k GPU and while your at it why not go for that RM 3.9k GPU as its more futureproof!"

What choice do budget gamers have other than self build their own perfect GPU? Might as well just give up PC gaming and spend that money on PS5 Pro, maybe thats what your pointing at.
*
LOL. Overexaggerating much? You'll be surprised with some people that can save their money for the item they want.

There is always choice. Right now. 8GB card at RM1k+ is the wrong one.

Some refinements:

Ryzen 5 7500F - RM607
Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE - RM114
MSI B650M Gaming Plus WiFi - RM604
Corsair Vengeance RGB 2x16GB DDR5 6000 - RM493
ASRock RX9070 Challenger 16GB - RM3175
Kingston KC3000 1TB - RM347
FSP Vita GM 850 - RM481
Lian Li Lancool 207 - RM349

Total: RM6170

Much faster GPU, and if TS is okay with lower VRAM then consider swapping the GPU to a 5070 instead  icon_idea.gif
Tip: you might want to survey a few physical shops for GPU prices, especially when Lazada/Shopee searches are very unreliable sweat.gif

Yes, but the performance improvement seems to be rather small, around 10 min FPS with a 5090 on 1080p (which is an unrealistic scenario) icon_idea.gif
So I don't think it's worth that much to go 8 cores IMHO icon_idea.gif

This game is the most CPU demanding in 2025 so far. It even give my 13900K 100% as well.

Built this early 2020, running very great indeed and had some upgrades in RAM along the way. Only shut down for occational dusting, not really sure on the power consumption.

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X
MSI B450 Tomahawk Max
Kingston fury 32gbx2 (mistakenly bought a single 32gb instead of a pair of 16gb, so i thought why not 2 32gb)
Colorful rtx 3060 ti
Crucial MX500 1TB (windows on this) + another 6tb harddisk
Super flower 650W leadex ii 80+ gold full modular

Looking to upgrade the graphics card.. budget i'd say best bang for buck (depending on what needs to be upgraded). I run double monitor (both ultrawide/wide) for work and a long cable to the tv in the living room for couch gaming.

Any advise would be good!
