Retesting how much RAM you need for gaming your way!
Good choices. I replay KOTOR I and II every year. They never get boring. I also like CoD Modern Warfare trilogy.
I would have added Far Cry 3, Crysis, Bioshock Infinite, Borderlands and Mass Effect Series
Great games! I need to replay Far Cry 3, was one of my favourites.
sometimes we forget how many choices we have in fun games, that can run good without the need of a top end pc.. also you can add emulation, and that opens you to hundreds of hours of fun with more games on low end or older hardware ... great vid !
People managed to play Half Life 2 up to 16K and it would still work well, just goes to show how skilled the developers at Valve are
Almost same with my htpc/second pc, Xeon E3-1270 /16GBram/7870XT, but my gpu died so i bought a GTX 960 2GB (dual fan MSI) for 25 eur. It plays newer indie games/ esport titles just fine. If someone is using i7 2600/i7 3770 with a (Z)77 mobo , you can overclock them even being non-K with turbo boost +400mhz and probably undervolt em the same time lol (4ghz all core i72600 as an example). It could help playing newer titles with a more powerful gpu. Xeons V1 cant use this feauture, havent tested V2( ivy bridge).
@@Kanivalos80 Half Life even has an official VR mod on Steam. It's just a timeless game.
Bro ,I have the sony vaio pcg 61a11 w laptop .Can i upgrade it with a external gpu?If,yes which is the best one.
Excellent low light performance. OSBOT is one of the best. It's not as good as the 5-12mm f/2.8 C Mount lens.
i d'ont a now why nvidia call this card an rtx 3050 its an rtx 3040
Love the new camera, much better than the old one.
It's awesome.
Why can't people do the compact tower design with the motherboard hub facing up the back instead of downward?
30 is not good, the image is just choppy, you always lose a little FPS and when it drops below 30 it's not good, but if you put 36 or 40 FPS everything is great Some games can be played at 26 FPS, but it hurts my eyes For me personally, 36 -50 frames is enough.
I mean i still rock my 1080ti
I watched your video and by coincidence you have the same graphics card as I do. My RX 580 wasn't performing well and I wondered what was the cause for that. Very well explained in every detail. I'll let you know if this method will work. Btw, cool T-shirt mate 😅😅
I’d like some help if it’s possible. I have an RX 580 Dual GPU Core, which means it’s two GPUs on one single board. But idk which way to pull the switch to enable the compute mode on it (I have two of these switches one for each GPU core). Any help would be appreciated!
I buyed rx 6800xt before 6 months and I am very satisfied with it but now i want to sell it I want to try nvidia :)
Were can i get the eGPU adaptor and the power suply like teh one in the video please!
Still waiting for ours to turn up.😅
Nice !
Comparisons vs maybe RTX 20 and 30 series card would've been also really interesting
They will come.
Mine has to. I still use a amd Ryzen 2700 with a Amd 5700xt gpu. Maybe 2019/2020 set up. I cannot afford to upgrade
Will still play 99% of games so you are good for now unless you want to play the latest AAA titles.
what the hell is going on? The Titel and Description are in German but the Channel is Englisch? XD
I have no idea, it's all in English here.
@@TechLabUK It seems to be youtube's new feature. There are different sound lines in other languages. even german
Aye bro slide me one of them cpus😂😂
That's pretty impressive. I've never thought that you can actually plug in a desktop graphic card to the laptop via the wifi card internal connector. Please tell me if there's any chance that this could also work on my old laptop, that is HP Envy DV7-7335ea. Just checked that it has Intel Centrino Wireless-N 2230 WiFi card and its connector looks alike to the one you had in the video.
Have to admit i always loved how that card looks like. Im not into LED lights but aesthetics
My friend has fx 8320 and gtx 960 16gb ddr 3 idk now if it should be that slow but even starting pc( from ssd) or opening any app such like edge or file explorer is extremly slow, id expect 10yo cpu would be slow but not that slow after all specifications are pretty midly good
Thanks man for the power adapter, you're a life saver.
NP. Worked a treat for us.
How to you record? What soft and settings? Pls
Everything is captured on a separate system through a capture card.
@TechLabUK oh thats why! I dont have another pc. Could you recommend something? I get laggy recording on obs. Currently using xbox game bar but still not good! 😢
@ I have used both the Nvidia and AMD built in tools in the past but they tend to hit game performance a little. MSI afterburners built in capture tools seemed good though but I suppose it all depends on the specs of the system.
@TechLabUK Mine is R5 3500x (without graphics) 16gb ram A380 😵💫
@@lootgooddude Worth trying the MSI AfterBurner one, it's free to try.
For some reason after installing them both I can't open the rivatuning part of it is there a way to fix this
Rivatuner usually opens on its own when you open Afterburner. If RivaTuner isn't working you might have to re-install it. You can download RivaTuner on it's own and get the latest version and just install/overrite the current one.
52C is below the 75C that the AMD 7600x is rated for. great benchmarks!
i love this card, its getting up a little bit in price, bought on october one of these for 290 euro incl. shipping now it fits around 320-380 euros.... but its still good value but all the kids wanted nvidia.
Still a powerful GPU, without question and even "cheap" to get used. but a nightmare of efficiency with a TDP of 300 watts! I therefore opted for an RX 6750 XT (TDP 250 watts) back then, paired with an R 5 5600 X and was very satisfied with the performance/efficiency in WQHD-gaming.
You do know you can undervolt it down to the same TDP as the 6750 XT with barely any fps loss, right?
I got my 6800 non-xt used on facebook for a bit under $300. Absolutely amazing card, my pc feels invincible now. Completely overkill since I rarely play AAA games, but super nice to know I can play just about anything I want at 1440p
Managed to buy a RX 6800 recently for 350 bucks, my cpu is bottlenecking it very heavily but im still really happy with it :]
You will always have some kind of bottleneck each game will be different too.
AMDead RIP
no one with at least 2 braincells wants an AMD GPU
Sir, if i want to change the dvd optic to hdd caddy? Can i do that?
I haven’t done it but being a laptop type drive you can buy enclosures for SSDs this size and replace the optical drive with that.
please bro do not ever forget half life 2, come on bro 😢😢😢😢😢
I shall never forget it! This GPU is just way too big to showcase that game lol. Basically 4K Highest Settings will net you maximum settings 😄
I have Ryzen 5 1600AF and GTX 1080 😅 but for music production I will need in future more stronger CPU, but for Total war series, World Of Warships, WoW.. no need to change that beautiful GPU 😊
I caught a steal on fb marketplace from a 5 star seller for $250 for one of these at the beginning of 2024. Best deal I ever came across!
Amazing deal!
the 6900xt red devil was my favorite GPU all time, so fun to OC and so powerful. this 6800xt is so cute and powerful even now. sadly this reference model have too high temperature in game.
I wonder if the igpu is better than my RADEON R9 380 4GB.
6800xt owner I run a powercolor red dragon. Good card. Holds 2.4ghz easy till this day around 68c. I have it paired with another old dog a 10900k and 64gb DDR 4 4kcl18. Still a crazy good rig. I can't justify an upgrade till this day.
Still good in 1080p

"update bios failed" :(
i did the Q flash thing and i was able to get the bios updated, many thanks for ur great guide, couldent of done it with out ya, made my night thank u
this was my solution incase someone has my issue, follow all the video instructions and if you get that error message try below. Use Q-Flash for BIOS Update Enter BIOS Setup: Press DEL repeatedly when powering on the PC to enter the BIOS. Open Q-Flash: In the BIOS, look for the Q-Flash utility (usually under the Save & Exit tab or via a hotkey like F8). Select the BIOS file: Navigate to the USB drive, select the BIOS file, and proceed with the update.
I bought a 6900xt on eBay a few months ago for about $320 shipped/tax. It was listed as a 6800xt but I got an unexpected upgrade! Lol I know they actually have similar gaming performance to each other
just bought a used Red Devil a couple months ago - and loving it!
Red Devil. B. E. A. UTIFUL!
was not clear what bios version you went with, not sure if i should get the newest one or the one for 5000 cards
Doesn't matter what we went with, always go for the latest to make sure it's up to date and follow the upgrade path if they describe one.
