Here's what a 3090TI looks like poor fags

There are good reasons, in my mind, to pirate shit. You buy games, then you're in a slump so you pirate, then you buy again. I have pirated Capcom games but I have also bought tons of Capcom games, even the ones no one likes. Or maybe you live in a poor country and (((adjecent))) people are abusing regional pricing, eventually forcing it up to western prices, then piracy is also fine in my mind. Maybe buy it on sale to throw a shekel at the devs.

If someone pirates games because they can't afford them after buying a $3000 graphics card then let the cactus enter their arse.

I'm of the opinion that if you don't have a lot of disposable income to throw around and it's a company like Nintendo, then it's fine. Indie games (aka not $60 AAA titles) on the other hand people have no excuse to pirate.

I bought a 6800, and yes I paid way too much. It s not worth it, buy an older card.
 
Gratz, richfag. I need to find a second Zotac 2080ti AMP. Just replaced the fans after a coworker killed them, he was going to throw the card out. So I got it for 200 with parts. Works good, now I need to find something to play that isn't a decade old. Also keeping my 2060 Super in its box as a backup, because poorfag.

He's probably running some opensource GPT model on it to generate animu fanfic smut, maybe even the kind of smut you'd want to generate locally because you'd be worried about obscenity laws and feds if done so on a public service

what a time to live in

My goals are to create a electric super Nazi just because that's what the naysayers were so worried about and to create a electric Jersh for the lulz. There is plenty of animu fanfic smut to fap to without spending two grand.

I spent today dicking with the card mining. Long story short, it is shit at mining. It would probably do better in a open mining rig, but I have it in a case. Mining is a secondary or even tertiary use for it for me. I'm the most savvy on mining so I fucked with that first. Everything is mining eth on nbminer. I won't go too deep into the weeds but when mining you want to get the most hashrate out of the least power. I found that it can perform as well at about 78% power as 100% so I started there. That translates to 350ish watts for this card. I cant even fuck with the core without hanging or getting a blue screen but it responds well to memory overclocking. Condensing 12 hours of testing into a few sentences, the fucking vram runs fucking hot and the only thing the card responds to is memory clocking. I managed 130mh with a super aggressive fan curve on the seven chassis fans and running the gpu fans at 85%. Anything above that and the gpu starts vibrating harshly against the support. The motherfucker wants to take flight. I rate noise by whether it is louder than my tinnitus. It was above it. The chip itself is having a good time. I'm doing this shit to try to keep the vram "cool" meaning under throttling temps. In the end I set my chassis fans to the performance preset my mobo offered and the gpu at the more aggressive fan curve it offers. That keeps everything under my ear ringing and I can give the card an extra thousand on memory and it will stay stable at 119 to 122 mh without thermal throttling. That is with me running three big monitors. Running headless in a open mining rig I imagine that it would perform a little better, but there are other more efficient cards for mining. Don't buy the fucker for mining.

Cheapest 3090 lmao

When I bought it the evga card was cheaper but on backorder. I would have went with the cheapest 3090ti but I'm glad I payed a extra hundo for this one because it is argb and it came with a neat argb bracket instead of the penny's worth of rope the evga model came with. I guess you have the most expensive 3090ti. Post pics and tell us all about it. Personally I'm quite happy with my purchase.

I used a decent camera and it still came out like shit. Oh well, I'm not a photographer. The ram is cpu and gpu temps. The red one is the 3090ti vram. You cant tell from the shitty pic but the card extends into where there should be a hard drive cage. This is in a full atx case. Yeah I know. Make fun of me for having a $30 cpu cooler in my $4000 machine @Monocle. I deserve it.

Reminds me of when I got a 980TI back in the day, only to play games from the early 2000s. I did end up getting into some creative pursuits so it wasn't a complete waste.

tfw original RE games and HOI4.jpg

I have a 1070 and all that I play is the original RE games, SC2 coop and HOI4.
I'm probably going to get a 4080 when they come out and still play them
