Charles Lee
I'm not a fanboy, I can admit that each chip maker has advantages and disadvantages, if you exclusively game intel is still going to be the top dog, if you use your computer for rendering and workstation tasks amd is a much better buy
Jace Cruz
Yes goyim, buy intel BUY INTEL
David Campbell
cpu and gpu are completely different markets, even amd pairs has paired nvidia cards with their own chips, and intel cpus with their graphics cards
Oliver Roberts
>intel is still going to be the top dog, by 2 frames, complete unavailability and stuttering i have intel and i know why people hate them first hand

100 posts and every reply to the op is telling you to stop shilling, this thread is needed
Juan Roberts
980ti user here. Should I wait for Volta or buy a 1080ti?
Sebastian Rogers
>i have intel and i know why people hate them first hand a 2500k?
Bentley Reyes
I also have a 980ti, I'm planning on waiting for volta unless 1080ti's go on a really good sale for the holidays.
Ian Ramirez
WAIT for volta
Austin Collins
4790k, people with 2500k's should have a positive image of intel when they were actually good
Owen Perez
>4790k that's a solid chip, unless you are doing workstation tasks with it
Isaac Hughes
Will Volta worth getting than a 1080ti?
Jack Morris
Why? Is it significantly better?

>wanna upgrade ram >costs as much as an i7-7600

Andrew Lopez
>solid i have a custom WC loop where it is regularly hotter than my 1200 mhz 290x and hotter than my old athlon II when the athlon was on its stock cooler, it stutters in modern games if i have too many background processes open, i use VM's pretty often, and the intel shills here insisted that that cpu can oc to 5 ghz but the highest i was ever able to get to was 4.6 ghz with 1.4 volts
its anything but "solid"
Charles Jenkins
hopefully it will be but its quite a while away from coming out
Brody Wilson
>stutters in modern games if i have too many background processes open is this what all the intel stutters meme shit stems from? bad housekeeping? of course shit is gonna stutter if you are streaming 4k trap porn and have 50 browser tabs loaded while gaming you are literally throwing hardware at a software problem (your indecisive brain) have some fucking discipline and debloat yourself
Adam Nguyen
> of course shit is gonna stutter if you are streaming 4k trap porn and have 50 browser tabs loaded while gaming AMD doesnt
Henry Miller
theres usually a 20-30%ish gain between flagship cards ie 980>980ti>1080>1080ti>volta xx80>xx80ti and if you end up paying the same amount for a 1080ti as the new volta card that also has better performance it's not much of a deal

Is AMD's replacement service good? Thinkin of buying a Ryzen R5 1600. Don't know if I want to purchase Microcenter's protection plan or just deal with whatever AMD's warranty service is.
Adam Fisher
>intel has an issue >ur fucking stupid its your fault intel is shit how do you even rationalize this shit?
Angel Sanchez
how much is the protection plan there?
Gavin Ortiz
Finally a non-shill OP, thanks.
Adam Martinez
I assume hes just trying to derail this thread so it can make his look better, could just be autism, post purchase rationaization, shilling or a combination of the above
Angel Parker
20 bucks for 2 years, but I don't have much cash to spare
Grayson Sanchez
but how are you supposed to hit 144hz on a amd system?
Luke Green
bump fuck intel OPs
Mason Moore
I think amd has a pretty good warranty protection but if you want the peace of mind you could go for microcenter's plan if you trust it, besides you shouldn't need it, CPUs dont break that often
John Ward
So when will volta be out? Early 2018 or mid 2028?
Gabriel Torres
Mid 2018 i mean.
Robert Moore
average fps doesn't matter, evidenced by how the 7700k can get 144 fps in a game and still "fee" less smooth and a 135 fps r5 1600 because of worse frametimes
Colton Moore
>mid 2028? considering amd doesn't care about consumer anymore and nvidia has no competition it probably will be 2028
Daniel Lewis
>Fat fingers. Mid 2018 i mean.
Levi Jones
honestly navi and volta should be around the same time and that is early 2019 at best
Robert Bell
probably end of 2018Q1 for the first volta cards and then Q4 or 2019Q1 for the ti
Easton Rodriguez
Damn.
Michael King
What's a decent SSD for a poorfag?
Should I worry about getting rid of my 970 yet?
Dylan Thomas
volta is already developed though, just no consumer cards since vega sucked balls and nvidia is only selling DGX systems, I wouldn't count on seeing navi anytime soon since raja is on vacation and AllMyDelays has a history of pushing back timescales by years
Chase Hughes
Does it i5-7600K need to be delid like the i7-7700K?
William Peterson
>2018Q1 for the first volta cards the teslas and quadros will be out then maybe, the geforce cards will be late 2018, early 2019
Carter Bailey
they all need the DELID, or you could just get something that doesn't need to be delided
Gavin Robinson
>they all need the DELID
Not really, the 7600K gets nowhere near as bad as the 7700K in terms of heat spikes... Neither really Need to be delid, just have decent cooling and you're right.
Dylan Jackson
teslas are already shipping out
