man i want a 3080 upgrade that ram and mobo yo

[topaz hound]

@robust pendant I see no reason to upgrade the mobo but I was planning on doubling up the ram and getting 4 sticks for 32 down the line, but it runs rly good for now

[robust pendant]

how far can you oc cpu?

[robust pendant]

probly get more stability out of 32gb what i expierienced

a few games use just over 16gb with windows and such

[topaz hound]

@robust pendant I probably would would but it’s very stable atm and I haven’t tried ocing my cpu yet

[robust pendant]

i dont think u can oc it with that mobo why i recommended the z series

i could only oc my ram with my b560 why i switched

[topaz hound]

Yeah as you said it isn’t offered but I didn’t intend on ocing it so it works better for me

Bc of the price of the board and the features at that price

[robust pendant]

couldve gotten the 12700 saved a few dollars or nows a good time to sell your mobo and buy a new one

The point of that cpu is the Ecores VS a 12400. It's fine on a B series mobo. 1 of the few things I'd do is lower that rear fan down a bit to be inline w/ the cpu cooler.

[robust pendant]

yea good point on both cpus dont get performance like they use to from ocing unless you just like ocing its fine

Cool stealth style... 😎

@civic mantle thanks, that’s what I was going for, not a big fan of rgb on PCs
