I recently created a CPU Cinebench thread and wanted to create a GPU thread as well! I’ll link to a Google Docs spreadsheet that will be updated frequently with submissions in the thread below. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/104ktRNATV7L5kGGWHC77GM5_WGkl0SzVPsuFu98eKIA/edit?usp=sharing If you have feedback or…
I went to Micro Center i mid August looking to build my first PC, so I'm new to the whole building process and all the different choices for components. I knew I wanted to spring for the Geforce RTX 4090 GPU, but I wasn't aware at the time that different manufacturers besides Nvidia produced the cards like Asus, MSI, etc.…
Trying to understand something about temps. So when playing games I have noticed something I cant seem to understand, when I am playing Destiny 2 and in orbit, and when i disable the cap limit, my fps jumps from 162 to 500+ fps, and my junction temp on my GPU sky rockets to 110c, and that's on every setting the game offers…
I have a RTX 4090 gigabyte gaming Oc and I noticed today that the backplate is starting to lift up over by the integrated graphics card mount (for the motherboard). I looked at it and I can't find any damage but it seems the metal backplate is a little bit bent I guess from the weight of the gpu or something. I have a…
Today I launched a game, beamng.drive, and for some weird reason I was running at 20FPS with a 6950 XT. Normally I would get around my monitors max display output (165FPS) but today I did not. I rebooted, no change. I then tried different games and saw it happened in all of them except 2. I reinstalled drivers, reseated…
Bought a card today, but did not receive a code for Starfield. How does one get one?
Attached is my PC build except I have Windows 11 not 10 But let me start by saying I am pretty much clueless when it comes to builds. From what I’ve been told by friends, with the GPU I have, I shouldn’t be having the issue I am I mainly play FiveM/GTA 5 and Warzone which is when the issue usually happens but it also…
I just recently put together a new system with a 7900xtx and it has been working great so far. The only problem that I have had with it so far is that the highest sensor read 107-108 degrees C today while under full load (I have plenty of airflow in the case.) To be fair this was a full ray traced load and it is a factory…
I've tried reseating the GPU, reinstalling the drivers, and tried manually controlling the fans with Adrenalin but nothing is working. Please help
So my friend gave me a starfield code after buying the RX 6700XT. I have the same gpu( i bought it a few months ago) and I was wondering if I can redeem it on my pc that also has the RX 6700xt

This is on a refurbished Dell Precision 3530 laptop, i7 8850H CPU, Windows 11. , 32gb with NVIDIA Quadro P600 graphics card, It has this problem when I use the Cycles renderer, whether I use the CPU or the GPU for rendering. Does anyone know what to do about this? Any help would be appreciated. Blender is what I bought…
Hi all, first caveat I have never built a PC before and just did so for the first time so I am still learning about how things work, so if I say anything wrong please forgive me. I did build it with a friend who has done it many times before so I am not too worried that I did something drastically wrong. The issue I am…

I'm currently running a Ryzen 7 2700x with a 2070 Super. I'm in the market to upgrade, i want to get into 1440P gaming now. However, i'm troubled on graphics cards. I can not decide if the 4080 is worth the extra $400 over the 4070 TI. I will be paring it with a 13600k processor and DDR5 ram. I am looking for a hand on…
How do i get the $100 Steam credit for buying a Nvidia 4090 gfx card?
I have a red devil 6800xt and it crashes to a black screen every other day or so and the drivers need to be reinstalled everytime. Each time it crashes, it takes like 3 attempts in safe mode to be able to install the driver because it crashes when booting up. Sometimes it wont even boot after a crash I did a full restore…
Bought an open box one and it's likely messed up. Tried it in my old setup and then upgraded my motherboard, CPU, and power supply, and I'm having the exact same issues. Prior to GPU swap I had no issues. Would like to exchange for another.
Recently purchased an Intel Arc A770 16gb LE from Microcenter, on a bundle deal with the i5-12600k. Built the pc, everything was fine, after a day or 2 the Intel Arc Control Software stopped working, as in it became unresponsive. The software loads, however once on screen you can not click anything on the display. Any…
I recently purchased an EVGA 2080 Ti from a classmate and prior to using it in a build I would like to get the thermal pads and paste redone as they have been releasing an oily residue. Does Micro Center offer this service for cards that where not purchased from them and at the Cambridge, MA store?

I was thinking of getting a RTX 3070 but is it worth the money to get the 3080 for 1440p gaming?
I live 4 hours away. I’ve contacted micro center support 3-4 times everyday for 2 weeks, and I’m aware that they don’t know when the cards will arrive, but if somebody in the inventory department can help me get insight on when to go. I saw the cards were added today on the site, so I drove 4 hours and missed work. I’m…
Hi!

I've finally saved up enough money to buy parts to build a pc. I've bought everything I need for my build except the graphics card. I've done enough research to find that the card listed online at the MicroCenter in Fairfax County would be the smartest choice to make. However, I've seen that the card I'm looking at has…
How do I get this coupon?
I grabbed a Asus TUF 4080 a couple weeks ago and since I've installed it, my displays seem to sporadically blink to black for less than a second then goes back to normal. It seems to primarily happen when I'm playing games (but maybe it happens when I'm not as well and I've just not noticed yet, since I don't tend to stare…
Will I be able to install a GeForce GTX 680 in the PowerSpec B249 ? Thank you.
