some good SSD deals, 27GL83A-B is at a great price if you need a 27" 1440 monitor

My ASUS ROG 27” 144hz gsync monitor has a bad backlight bleed on the bottom left corner now… well slightly above the corner on the side.
Annoying.. but $265 new monitor fix annoying? Probably not.

Looks like a 4-5% increase at 1440p. Probably higher at 1080p

Anyone know the monitor required for FPS boost for the series S not the series X? Is it the 1440 that I need?

The Logitech G29 racing wheel is over 50% off today on Amazon. Usually $390 and is now $190

Depends on the game, but I’ve found that going from a 3600 to a 5800x has a huge impact on lows, far more of an impact than it generally captured in max frame rate benchmarks. I frequently dealt with frame stuttering (frametime spikes) that have all but gone away since the upgrade.
In short, if you’re looking to increase max frames, you’ll get a solid but not massive increase. But if you deal with stuttering, that would be a game changer.

Evga 3070 XC3 - $588.02 ($649.99)
you're probably not going to see many sales on those. you're best bet is to probably get a used B-stock gpu form Evga.

what are the chances a used card was a crypto card that got rode hard and put up wet

let me put your mind at ease about that....
IN LINUS WE TRUST
ETA: b-stock is more than likely from their step up program. meaning, people trading up from a 3060 to a 3060 ti or better. there might be some crypto cards in the bunch, but i'm willing to bet most of them are from gamers that just bought what they could until their number was called to "step up" from evga.

I wouldn’t want to buy an “old” mining card, but a card from this Gen? Mining can only do so much damage in a year or two. As long as I got a great deal on it, I wouldn’t worry about it too much.
Eta: Especially if it’s a 3070ti or lower, as they simply have less of a thermal concern.

You can get a used 3070ti for like $500. How much does that couch cost?
