Not only that, they have been bound by purest blu-tack. Would they risk the further humiliation of being consumed by a fire of their own making? One doubts it.

Thats really funny. I should do the same – have enough space to place something like a small guy, holding a flag back from the sucking power of the vertical fan for the CPU, standing on the GPU back plate :-)

According to leaked benchmarks, the RTX 4060 is up to 20% faster than RTX 3060 but slower than 3060 Ti:

In terms of performance, the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Non-Ti GPU scored 99,419 points within the Vulkan API test and 105,630 points within the OpenCL API test. Compared to the RTX 3060, the RTX 4060 scores a 20% & 17% lead over its predecessor, respectively. Meanwhile, the RTX 3060 Ti ends up around 3-5% faster in the same benchmarks.

Whereas...

Compared to its closest current-gen competitor from AMD, the RX 7600, the GPU offers up to a 32% improvement in performance but also ends up 20% slower than the RTX 4060 Ti.

I've found the real pc hardware status symbol. A much better way to flex your wealth compared x1 4090, plasma tv, thermomix etc.

https://www.aftershockpc.com.au/series/hyperfocus?tw_source=fb&tw_adid=23855012663870311&fbclid=IwAR1IKJSxXI5QxhOjEK5T2NZBebkkAKk_CbSnuwSrXTsJixCHFt8ERWm4pO8

With inflation that must be comparable to the Alienware builds of the mid 00's. A real ferrari. When the next person posts "Which model 4090 to buy my 8 year old kid" people can just link this instead

It's also the first build I've seen that's actually futureproof. As in it will do Ue5 and Pathtracing? 8k etc?

Actually they're all probably bought through tax and not income. But there'd be are few that aren't aka a legit flex.

That's actually hilarious, given the price being asked. Non the less though, when I win Powerball, I might even consider looking at that setup..

Note I said Powerball, and looking at..it's so over the top. :-)

That's what I was wondering. If it's like old SLI then it won't be 4x faster. Maybe it's just an ai/rendering rig as I think they got rid of sli.

It's a pretty nice looking system.. but lol at the price. The rest of the parts must also be boutique, I saw someone critique the fact it used soft cooling hoses. Has 26 fans!

I expected more NVME storage for that price instead of just a single 1TB PCI-e 4.0 NVME drive. It has a nice amount of ECC memory though so I expect it can run Crysis in 4K, a few fluid dynamics sims and a few VMs at the same time.

$46,749 if you customise with a few extras!
I've left off keyboard, mouse, monitors and speakers in my config.

I'm hoping I get my diablo 4 code from Asus before Diablo 5 is announced. Fingers crossed.

MAWI United has shared a new tech demo for Unreal Engine 5.2 which uses full Nanite for foliage and trees, Lumen and Virtual Shadow Maps. This tech demo showcases all of the new features that Unreal Engine 5.2 brings to the table.

They claim that the 128 bit bus is too narrow for switch emulation and will quickly become saturated if you use a 2x scaler.

So just a reminder to anyone looking at buying the 4060 Ti, you're buying 4050 Ti silicon and being scammed.

I had to chase MSI for mine. When I did eventually message them, they replied, oh your claim has been rejected because we need a photo of the card literally in your pc..
Luckily I just reapplied with the new pic uploaded and magically it was approved, and code given in 30 mins..

Wow, that's ridiculous. Surely the serial and invoice is enough. Anyway I got my code on Thursday night, I've been playing all day and up until a few minutes ago. Too much but I had a lot of fun and my it's running so cool on my rig. It sits around 50 degrees at ultra settings, 4k 90fps (DLSS Quality). I can't get over how cool this 4080 runs after having a 3080.

Had the same issues with MSI, where I had to both upload a picture of the serial number from the box and then on the card. After waiting a week only after contacting support was I told that the picture of my actual card was a problem.

Couldn't reattach to the existing claim, simply sent the picture to support and luckily they attached it for me. My brothers issue was funnier, after contacting support they said they also needed a picture of the card in the PC, sent him a claim rejection due to this. Following on from this sent his redemption key 5 mins later, even though the status was still rejected in the MSI dashboard and he never updated the claim.

G'day everyone, I am considering getting my hands on a PNY RTX 4090 OC XLR8 Gaming Verto and just wanting to reach out to the community here to see if anyone has any feedback on PNY's warrantee. Just wanted to be sure the warrantee will be ok as I have never gone outside of the mainsteam ASUS, Gigabyte, etc... Thanks in advance for any feedback.
