I'm in the market for a new gpu, my favorite games simply aren't giving me a satisfying amount of FPS anymore, I'm running a rx6600 with a 5600x3d. I've been looking around and $400 seems like it can get you something nice, considering you go used (sad I couldn't get the 9060xt 16g when they were this cheap tho 😔), I only ever game, I usually use the lowest settings and very occasionally actually crank it up higher. I am NOT getting an intel gpu 💀.

Seems like the best competitors here are used 6800xt, 3080, or potentially a used 9060xt16gb if I can find one.

Does anyone have any other suggestions for a good upgrade at this price range? I will also probably need a new psu too (on 550w rn) so any suggestions for those would also be appreciated. Thank you! :)

Everywhere I’m looking I cannot find a 9060xt 16gb or a 9070GRE that are not the same price. Should I just get the 9070gre?

Everytime I turn my
pc on it gets stuck in this loop of automatic repair and resetting or eventually just freezing. Very very rarely it’ll boot but if I thrn it off then it goes right back into this loop. I’ve tried everything I can think of, I’ve even tried reinstalling windows but I couldnt get it to boot off of my flash. Is there anything I can do?

The occasions prior to this it booted with everything in it, no drives or gpu removed. But just now today, it would boot into a windows blue screen (just as rarely as it would regularly boot the other times). I was only able to get into the blue screen recovery menu twice, and ran some commands, but they did not work.

I’ve tried removing both of my nvme drives
i’ve tried the ram trick
i’ve tried cmos battery
I’ve tried removing the gpu
I’ve tried loading into linux (I got stuck in the same loop)
When I was in bios YES I made sure the boot order was proper
I tried using both csm and uefi mode
I’ve tried enabling and disabling secure boot
I would’ve tried fast-boot but it doesn’t exist on my bosrd

I really dont know what to do I really love this pc

I removed the gpu and got stuck in the loop for a while but eventually got it running on integrated graphics. I really hope the gpu is not faulty because I really dont want to get another.

Is there any easy way to diagnose this while the pc is still on and running.
It’s currently running with the gpu removed and the nvme drive that does not have windows installed removed. I really love my pc and I use it all hours of the day and I would do anything to fix it.

Can anyone give me some helpful pointers to getting it working (with everything in it) again. Please and thank you.

I’ve been dealing with this for the past month.

Any help will be appreciated SOOOOOO muchhh pleaseee!!! Thank you guys I would really love to have my pc back!! ❤️

How do I fix this? Without losing any files prefarably.

Everytime I turn on my pc it says automatic repair on the motherboard screen, then it either restarts and tries again, or it will freeze and I’ll have to restart my computer. Randomly sometimes it’ll boot into windows, but trying to turn it back on it runs into the same loop. I am able to boot into the bios menu but nowhere past that. Is there anything I’m able to do?

Hey I just got my first job, and it’s at chick-fil-a! Does anyone have any tips for people who are going on their first day?

Hello, I'm a 17 year old, in high school, I get off earlier than most so I can work earlier. I desperately need a job, I don't really care what it is I just need something to do. I've applied everywhere I could find online over the past month, but have had no luck, besides a taco bell interview lmao. Is there anywhere that I can just go and get a job fast. Preferably within a week or two, and hopefully further out east (I am in the farthest part of eastern aurora).

Can be any job, any pay, just need one, bad. Thanks.

Whenever the shows season would change I would always look for specific clues to see how much time has passed since last season to help me get an easy time frame of the show. It also helped me understand how old the characters would be during certain seasons. But this made me notice that when characters would get pregnant, they would stay pregnant for super inconsistent periods of time. Most giving birth very prematurely, only being pregnant for 6-7 months. I really struggled to understand these time frames because they never seemed to explain them, despite being very important for knowing things (specifically how advanced technology would be.)

Hello, I'm currently a resident of the neighborhood (Murphy Creek) and ever since I've lived here I hated the lack of public transportation, and I would love if we were able to gain RTD support in this eastern-most part of aurora (Murphy Ceek, Traditions, Harmony), even if it was just a small bus route.

On their website it says it's possible to get have an election for the RTD to decide whether or not to annex a neighborhood, like these eastern-most ones, but has anyone ever actually been able to annex a neighborhood like this or is it just not possible. I'd really really love to see public transport support in my hometown, I hate how secluded it feels, but I don't know how possible this would be. Thank you guys.

Ever since I started driving here, I've seen probably 100 cars with expired temp plates. Not expired by a couple days either, expired by up to multiple years. (I've seen one with plates from 2021!). The process for trying to register a car is absurd, and due to a certain check engine light code (Yes I read it 🤦‍♂️), I'm just not able to pass emissions unless I pay an outrageous fee to get it fixed. Is it even worth bothering to try and register the car at this point? Has anyone ever actually been pulled over for something like this. Because it seems like extremely old tags are very, very common.

Where the hell do I apply to find jobs bruh I swear it’s impossible.
Indeed is the worst app known to man
Denver, this job market sucks
I got my license so I could get a job where did they all go!
Help meee

When I'm driving my little shitbox of a car I feel like I'm more aggrivated and probably more unsafe of a driver. I also don't really care as much to fuck the car up compared to a nicer one. But when I am driving a nicer, newer car, with better amentities. I feel very patient and nice and overall like a much safer and better driver.

Hello, I'm currently quite young; I have only just graduated high school and am working on going to college for an accounting degree. I'm wondering what the best/quickest way to start saving for a house would be. I want to be able to hopefully save enough for a nice down payment, and am hopefully subsequently able to make a high enough salary for a good mortgage.

I am mainly planning on living with my parents while saving, as to avoid larger expenses like housing/renting, which (*should*?) help me accrue the funds for a down payment, much quicker.

What kind of savings accounts should I use? Should I focus on splitting my funds into things like 401K's and Roth IRA's? What type of things should I look for in a house? Important things.

As for my current area of residence, I am currently located in/around Denver.

I don't want to live with my parents for too long, though, but if I'm able to make myself a nice chunk of change for a house before moving out, to avoid renting apartment that would be lovely.

Hello, I am quite young but I've wanted a hellcat (a trackhawk mainly) since forever, I just don't know what the proper way to approach getting one would be. I'm not extremely interested in owning the hellcat itself, rather potentially leasing it for 2-3 years, just to have some fun. Does anyone have a good idea on what the finances would look like on that? I don't mind "wasting" my money for a little while if I can enjoy my life for a while (atleast while I'm still young lol). You only live once! What about would be the finances for this type of thing, and a fair or comfortable amount you would need to make to own such a car.

I would like to own some kind of fun sports car before I get old and have a bunch of responsibilities (But I would also like to not accidentally ruin my credit lmao) 😂

There's two schools and possibly 1,000 houses. But someway somehow there's never been any thought to build a grocery store by here 🤦‍♂️

I have been scouring facebook marketplace for the past few days and I feel like I've seen some amazing cars for <$3,000 except I just don't know how I'm supposed to check for a cars reliability? This is gonna be my first car and I'd like for it to run how it's supposed to as I'm not picky. Anyone have good tips on how to find a good car? Thanks.

I need a good daily for like $3,000. Looking at mostly Camrys and civics but idk what exactly to look for in the cars (maximum miles, service history etcetera). This would be my first car and I have absolutely no knowledge so any pointers on how to know if a car will be reliable would be great! Thank you guys :)
