Why would you buy a 265k

#

Nice wallpaper but like

#

Why

vestal yoke
#

One sec

elder robin
#

Oh ok lol

vestal yoke
#

but in all honesty, I am legit happy, My 13700k still works, it was replaced. I was not happy with the 14900k at all. direct x 12 seems to run better too. Maybe it wont be as great as if not Ill report as much, but my early impression I am very happy

#

Bro they told you to go with Intel like 5 years ago lol

elder robin
#

Was just wondering tho

vestal yoke
#

Yeah I think alot of the issues were also window related as you need 24h2 to run the cpu properly

#

and if old bios you need to install the OS with onboard graphics like in windows xp/7 era

#

but once updated never again need to

elder robin
#

Ah okay

#

yeah that was common

#

nowadays pretty much every amd board comes with flashback but yeah that is frustrating lol

vestal yoke
#

I dont hate AMD, I just followed the advise they gave me πŸ™‚

#

I still do suggest amd to ppl when they ask, its a personal choice, but yeah, if I come across issues Ill report it on this cpu, ill be uploading game tests over the next week, but wont lie, i almost miss the 14900k-my room is now cold haha

#

isnt that a downgrade technically

Intel returned my 13700k and I had buyers remorse too

#

so now when the 5090 is out ill put my 4080 in the old pc and use it as an entertainment system and guest pc

people should reserve the right to say f*** any company based on a bad experience, who cares what others say. More power to ya

#

Yeah man cool setup, I'm gonna be doing a 265K build soon as well, don't worry about what others say

#

otherwise its not a bad cpu by any means

#

The 265k was actually cheaper for me, since I got it for $365 + 379 on the mobo, the 9800x3d, if I was willing to go amd, is I think $500 when in stock + 479 for the mobo equiv, but yeah, price vs perfomance over generational leap, I do agree I wish it was less πŸ˜„

plush egret
#

which is neat

vestal yoke
#

much like a PSU, I wont skimp on a mobo, as it has the potential to break everything connected to it, no matter how rare a chance. Peace of mind if priceless

#

im just happy I can use my ram at full speed. Something I couldnt do on 14th or 13th gen

plush egret
#

yeah but psus are far more of a minefiled then motherboards

#

there are psus that genuinely will 100% never work

#

I usually pay for the name Corsair, overpriced I know, but they have a non failure rate for me(unless keyboards, my god keyboard and icue software sucks) but their hardware warranty is why I chose them

#

I predict in 2 generations intel will rise like a pheonix with the Core 7 465k or they will be forced to merge with amd πŸ˜›

#

they are being eyeballed by qualcomm

vestal yoke
#

oh really? My father is 72, he has stock in qualcomm, hed love that lol

vestal yoke
#

I actually got a better score than I did on my 14900k lol

just an update everything ive tossed at it from grayzone warefare to helldivers 2 to battlefield 2042, I am having no issues, Granted I am playing in 4k so it is more gpu dependant, but I am not seeing as many drops in my 1% lows. I am finally happy to say I have a decent pc for work and play in one.
