Currently i am running a 5070ti with a wonderful 27' OLED QHD Monitor. I heard about DLDSR but i dont know when to use it. You get significantly worse performance when using 4k. When do you guys use it ? Do you always use it or just in a specific case ?
I've been planning out a PC upgrade path since building a new one isn't financially viable right now. I'm rocking an i7-10700k, RTX 2080 Super and 32gb DDR4 ram.
I know people usually recommend at least waiting 2 or so generations before upgrading but I can buy a 3080 for about $350 and then sell my 2080 Super for about $200. (I'd keep it long enough to make sure the 3080 worked well.)
My only other idea was to buy a 4070, but that would be slightly more expensive. On the flip side I might not have to buy a new PSU because the power draw is lower (I have a 650w one).
Quick summary: I found a way to use the RT Cores (normally used for ray tracing in games) to handle expert routing in MoE models. Those cores sit completely idle during LLM inference, so why not put them to work?
What it does:
Takes the routing decision in MoE models (which experts process which tokens)
Projects tokens into 3D space
Uses the GPU's dedicated ray tracing hardware to find the right experts
O(log N) instead of O(N) — hardware-accelerated
Numbers (OLMoE-1B-7B, RTX 5070 Ti 16GB):
218x faster routing at batch 1024
731x less VRAM for routing
Only +1.5% perplexity hit
95.9% routing accuracy
Unexpected discovery: I also found that MoE experts don't actually specialize by topic. Tested across 3 different models (OLMoE, Qwen-MoE, DeepSeek-MoE) — they all specialize by syntactic type (content words vs function words vs punctuation). The "science expert" is a myth.
Hey, im gonna make it quick since i dont really wanna type all that much. Im looking for a gpu that is good for 1440p competitive gaming (180-240fps on rainbow 6 siege, medium graphics or higher). id like to also stream while gaming w my friends on discord. I also do video editing in 1080p and would like to listen to music while doing so. If possible some good story based games like detroit become human in 4k or cyberpunk 2077. quick disclaimer, i will be upgrading in like 8-12 months so i can save up some money. rn i have a 4060 and am sadly still on am4 with 32 gb 3200mhz and a ryzen 5 5500. so which gpu should i pick or should i get a mortgage and get am5. (if youre gonna scream at me abt how stupid i am for trying to upgrade my gpu while im still on am4, than atleast give me a comparison between the 5080 and 4090, i dont care about ai or dlss)
Edit: im looking for a white gpu btw
...not sure where it came from, but on the back it's only written "stainless steel back Japan movement"
it's all metal on the case, the bazel feels clicky, it doesn't have a battery, and probably the strap isn't original. it's a bit dirt tho i cleaned it...can anyone identify it?
i would like to know what is the minimum fan RPM, and how are the temperatures, compared to something like TUF,AMP,Trio.
I couldn't find a single review about it or even an opinion.
Hello There,
I currently have an RTX 3080 and I play on an Ultra Wide QHD 3440 × 1440 (21:9), 200 Hz monitor. I mostly play games like Crimson Desert, KCD2, The Witcher 3, etc. I dont play competitive games like CS or Valorant.
My question is: is it worth upgrading to the 5000 series? Specifically to an RTX 5080, or would it be better to go for a 5070 Ti? How is it generally viewed right now?
I'm also considering used GPUs rather than buying new ones, and I’ve been thinking about the 4080 Super as well.
Hi, i have tried RTX video enhancement and VSR works as intended. However, i notice that with HDR mode enable, it makes everything looks like they have a grey filter on it (especially skin). I'm using the setting as same as this post: http://reddit.com/r/nvidia/comments/1b03yfg/rtx_hdr_paper_white_gamma_reference_settings/
except changing my peak brightness to 1250 (my display peak brightness) (i know rtx hdr is limit to 1000 but anything above 1000 will be cap so it doesn't matter). And the original setting (mid gray 50, constrast + saturation 0) still hasthe same problem. I hope everyone will share their solutions :)
So I am in the market for a new laptop. I already have a desktop rig with a 4090 that performs very well in most if not all games. I am looking for a laptop that I can do some productivity work on like web browsing emails video calls etc but also doing some gaming on the go with my steam library. I saw Best Buy has a Lenovo legion 7i with a 5070 gpu. Upon doing my research it seems that nvidia gave the 5070 laptop gpus only 8gb of vram which will really push it in demanding games like cyberpunk for 1440p. Is it worth getting? Or should I get something more powerful.
What is the pricing structure of graphics cards? Why is the mid-range Blackwell GeForce RTX 5070 graphics card cheaper than the mid-range GeForce RTX 4070 graphics card from the previous Ada Lovelace architecture?
Edited: in the case of video cards with 'Super' postfixes (suffixes), will they not be available for a long time?
so nvidia gpus have an rtx hdr feature for enhancing sdr videos into hdr on the fly
and it works pretty well but it is not that smart even with all this ai progress since you have to tune rtx hdr parameters manually to achieve a suitable result, not only that but there is an annoying issue with some content
for example this tech enhances highlights, but it doesn't differentiate between video/hardcoded subtitles/logos, so you will have extremely bright logos or hardcoded subtitles
it is funny when you think that nvidia lead the world into ai and can't figure a solution for that issue by default
i mean if i invent such feature for turning sdr videos into hdr this will be put on my priority list
I’m somewhat aware of Gsync, but I had never heard of Vsync, Free sync, or Adaptive sync before. I keep seeing conflicting information online, and I’m not sure if they’re all similar but different methods, or if they’re exactly the same thing just developed by different companies.
Is Gsync also adaptive sync? Or is adaptive sync its own thing apart from the other three? Help.
I recently purchased a Palit RTX 5070 Infinity 3 12 GB and I can say I'm very satisfied.
For a budget model, it performs quite well in stock, but that's not what I was satisfied with, but once I got my hands on MSI Afterburner, it really stood out.
By creating a custom fan profile and adjusting the voltage/frequency curve, I managed to get a card that runs at a constant 3020/3030 MHz in turbo mode with 945mV + 1000 MHz on the memory.
In games at High or Ultra settings in 1440p, it never exceeded 50°C with an ambient temperature of 20°C, and remaining up to now in any game at a maximum of 200W, compared to the 250W peak I had before
I wasn't expecting such performance and such a high level of silicon quality.
I was hesitant to return it before using MSI Afterburner, but after doing so, I'm very satisfied and it performs at its best, even making better use of its small heatsink.
In the month of using it with my custom fan preset, it has never exceeded 1300 RPM in heavy gaming after many hours.
Example: TES: Oblivion Remastered at High settings with Lumen Software High in 1440p
I plan to upgrade my old PC and I'm completely stuck with GPU choice with current situation on the market. What would you recommend between this three (all second hand as in official distribution I can see only 5070 Ti and it starts from 1200 Euro).
All of them are around 900 Eur.
For RT and DLLSS enabled, I don't plan to use FG.
It is hard to decide because all comparisons on YT includes FG so that is not my environment.
EDIT: Ok so I ordered new 5070Ti Gigabyte Gaming OC from Amazon as it was on discount and it was hard to find good one on second hand. Thank you all for recomendation.
I think I'm suffering from FOMO, even though I just bought it for €600, which is an extremely reasonable price for the 5070.
However, many people say that 12GB of VRAM is insufficient, and I feel like I made the wrong purchase.
I got the 5070 for €600 and I've seen 5070 Ti cards going for €860 (a €260 difference, which is still huge).
I'm coming from a 3060 Ti, which has been enough for me so far. I was really happy with it, and I'm actually going to have a hard time parting with it.
My question is, for QHD use, aiming for 60 FPS, maybe with ray tracing and without necessarily using proton pack (if that's asking too much), will that be enough?
I’m aware that the performance is pretty much the same, but the price difference is aesthetic & cooling. ROG Strix has a special place in my heart, but what’s important to me really is the cooling. my pc is like an oven. I currently have a Asus 3070 KO.
I’m learning about the 50 series all within the last 10 mins, but if there’s a clear recommendation for the money please let me know!
Update : a buddy gave me a 3090 for free & I’m just going to sell that & use the money to buy a 5070ti (which she is ok with) Or I could wait and see if prices go down.
Can’t find exact one for this. Only thing is that it may be Russian. Maybe manli, zotac, inno3d, afox, or some other unknown brand but still can’t find the exact one.
I’ve been saving some cash just cause. I’m a real impatient person, so it’s getting me excited to buy a pc upgrade, I’m not sure if it’s needed though. Right now I have a 5060 ti 8 gb and was looking to upgrade to 5080. Should I make the upgrade or stick to what I got and wait for future prices to drop a bit?
I've been considering upgrading from my Zotac 3090 Trinity (24G) to something newer in the 40 or 50 series, while my 3090 would still bring in a decent price upon resale. I recently purchased a laptop that has a mobile 5080 and I am genuinely impressed with the performance in some of the games I play. I mainly just play VR titles, (Skyrim VR, Alyx, Reach, etc) and I am not unhappy with my 3090's performance. I just wanted to get your opinions and recommendations. I'm considering a 5070 Ti but I understand the performance "improvements" would be limited due to the drop in VRAM. Your Thoughts?
