Same here, except over two years with a 12600K. Was always planning on upgrading it but haven't had the need to. No support Bracket, she is as flat as possible as it is to measure. Could be like these new reports of "faulty" 14700K and 14900K's where the vocal minorities are causing a larger...

got it, thanks. haven't bothered trying as I figured it was something like that. wait, if I don't own the reforged one, can you just not play online anymore? (you said it updates to reforged edition which still costs money and people say is not finished)

What do you mean give back? Meaning "fix" the original versions so they work as intended instead of focusing on stupid reforged? you can and always could play WC3 vanilla and frozen throne i thought... https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/256212

Yep, last gen I am almost positive it was 3080FE + that all had it. I never had a 3070FE (I think they existed...) but I had several 3060ti and they do not have RGB. i believe 4xxx series is the same. but 4080 owners could speak up, i did see in one of the 4090 RGB threads a 4080 owner not...

Oh it was definitely going to be faster, more cores as well sealed its fate there, so long as things were setup properly and no issues arose. So glad to hear of your positive results, enjoy the new silicon.

Finally, a $100 price drop on the 4080 FE here in Canada, I still think its a far cry from being anywhere near enough to move these. With supers coming I am wondering if this is just the beginning as all the FE's appear to be on sale with exception of the 4090 FE. The two FE units that showed...

Sure, ;) Which 2060? KO, super, re-launched version? You will find we agree on most of this convo in the end I believe, I don't think I ever intended to say that all SKU's were trash or that the value wasn't there. I am typing on a 2060 super based system right now, since the main use I have...

must resist.... source of evil.... (good times... many many good times)

That is also an excellent choice, because YOU made it :) take care sir.

yep, totally agree with you here. I made a comment in a different thread about intel. I want the feature complete $100 card to return. I bought one when my kids were little, cant even remember the name, it was a ati card though. it wasn't a 1080ti class card by any means, but I was playing...

Since we are focusing on specific issues here, no problems I am always glad to oblige! The 2080 wasn't competing against the 1080... more name muckery by NVIDIA and also a key part of my point... it was the same price as a 1080ti and barely faster than one. I know because I built a system at...

14700k without a second thought... but that's me and I have a obsession with "value" and also FOMO issues... (ie, buying a last gen chip when the new one is available) 14700k does have more cores than the 13700k and like I said (still cant remember the feature... APO, thats it) it has APO...

agreed, but the inflated (past "normal" CAD pricing anyway..) pricing does not seem to have hit here either... the "MSRP" cards are all still floating around that price, the best buy FE"s have not gone up, so is that good? who knows.

I totally agree, 3080 was the bright spot and i wish more people got their hands on them instead of going into mining rigs. Specifically with ampere though, the 3090 was a complete joke, so was the 3060. (I know first hand, I've owned every iteration of 3080 and up, 10GB, 12GB, ti and 3090)...

oh the $3200 ASUS matrix or whatever its called doesn't do it for ya? :yuck:
