#

I think it has everything, there might be a reason why it's so much cheaper that I missed

#

Also, my mobo is not decided on at all, I'm not even sure what chipset I should do

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

You might want to check your local used market for a GPU

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

Ok

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

I already got a refurbished gpu

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

That's the most expensive part of your pc and not exactly the best

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

I bought my gpu for 229 and it's fine for me

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

Ok

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

I dont need that much gpu power

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 AM

#

Davinci benefits from your gpu also

#

But if you're happy with it then good

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 AM

#

Yeah, I know I could upgrade but I'm fine with that

#

I should probably do a different mobo though

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

Nah what I was suggesting was a mining 1070ti or something

chilly goblet Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

whats a mining 1070 ti

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

1070 ti that's for mining

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

It's a guy on kijiji who for some reason is selling 12 identical 1070ti's

#

And he swears they were never used for mining

#

(they were definitely used for mining)

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:23 AM

#

He just needs 12 for sli which wouldn't even work

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:23 AM

I mean, im building a new PC, im willing to part it out for cheap and help out others

#

It's a bit above but with deals and what not should work for your budget

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

I cant go above at all, but it might work cause I'm getting a lot of the parts on black Friday

#

And my gpu is already purchased for less than in the list

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:27 AM

#

Man I wish I could boost your buying power. You remind me of me.

Look at this

#

36 above

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:28 AM

#

I can subtract 34 cause I bought the gpu

#

So 2 above

#

That could definitely work

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:28 AM

#

And it fits 32 GB of ram

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:28 AM

And 3600 speed

@cursive quest I'll sell you a 2month old ryzen 9 3900x for $325 if u want it

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:30 AM

#

That's a good deal, but I dont know if I can fit my budget around it

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:30 AM

Sorry to say but that's sus

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

How would the money get transferred

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

#

whatever way buyer would be comfy with

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

#

Then sell it this is not the place

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

#

Yeah, and I wouldn't know if it's actually getting sent to me or I got scammed

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

well, first you start an escrow account....

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:31 AM

I cant afford it anyway lol

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

all good bro

heady cliff Nov 4, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

The budget barely fit a 3600

cursive quest Nov 4, 2020, 4:32 AM

#

And the 3600 is pretty overkill for what I'm doing

#

I gotta go to bed now

#

Before I spend all night making pc part lists

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:35 AM

so ne1 know when newegg gonna list the ryzen 5000's on their site?

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:35 AM

#

i called microcenter today, they told me they will only do instore pick up and stock is "sufficient" (dallas)

#

whatever that means, but hoping they have a lot

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:36 AM

#

I managed to get that day off work thankfully, but yes, time would be good. Don't much like the idea of checking website every hour from midnight on...

gritty meadow Nov 4, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

@tough wyvern fair chance we will have launch times when the reviews drop

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

Would be nice. I know we had them for 3070s

#

I also enlisted family to help try and get me one, so I need to be able to tell then when to wakeup and start clicking 😄

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:38 AM

#

You'll end up with four 5900Xs

#

Everyone will be happy for you

#

Except you

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

lol

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:39 AM

#

Hah, nah, can always cancel extras, or just resell them (at cost)

#

I doubt lots of extras will be a problem though if this is even remotely like everything else has been this year.

#

I just hope stock lasts more then a minute so it's not an absolute absurd crush

#

I want the 5900, but I'll settle for a 5950 if it's all I can get. Not sure which will actually sell out faster though.

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:42 AM

#

LAst time it was the 3900X that got blasted into oblivion

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

Think it makes more sense to try for the 5950 first then if it'll (maybe) be up for longer?

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

I think you should go for what you actually want first

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:43 AM

#

A computer that turns on lol

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:44 AM

#

If that's your only requirement may I suggest a FX 4100?

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:45 AM

#

pish, not an Athlon 64?

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:45 AM

#

If you can find one

#

You'll be able to play fun games such as "Boot into windows" and "Ms calc"

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:46 AM

Not ture. I can still go play UT2k4

I was thinking of saving some money and buying a b450 motherboard and just updating the bios for a 3600

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:47 AM

#

I'm pretty sure after the windows update you won't have the memory capacity for that

heady root Nov 4, 2020, 4:47 AM

#

b550 is just as affordable

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

Well, I have a 3600 on order. If I can't get my 5900 or 5950x I'll just use that until they come back in stock. The RTX 30s have taught me to have a plan B

modest ice Nov 4, 2020, 4:50 AM

#

I only have a plan A

#

5900x and 6800XT

Wouldn't the 5800x be enough for a 6800xt?

Mine is more or less that. I'd rather have a 3090 then a 3080, rather have a threadripper then a Ryzen, etc.

ember knot Nov 4, 2020, 4:52 AM

I was planning on getting the 5800x, but now I'm tempted for the 5900x and 6800xt combo

tough wyvern Nov 4, 2020, 4:52 AM

3090 has more memory.

hallow frigate Nov 4, 2020, 4:52 AM

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 2:05 PM

#

I believe that no one knows yet and that we should get more information today

fallen lynx Nov 4, 2020, 2:11 PM

#

nothing more specific than just "tomorrow"

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 2:14 PM

#

That means atm up all night

green terrace Nov 4, 2020, 2:20 PM

#

If you don’t know a time, neither do scalpers 🙂

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 2:28 PM

#

But the bots do cuz they just goooo

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 2:31 PM

#

And not everyone has time to sit at a computer all day pressing refresh every two seconds

summer abyss Nov 4, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

does anyone know why my game is only taking 2gb of ram when its supposed to take like 5 or 6

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

So itd be nice knowing what time itll come out

summer abyss Nov 4, 2020, 2:32 PM

#

its causing my game to stutter

pastel monolith Nov 4, 2020, 2:33 PM

#

directx 12?

summer abyss Nov 4, 2020, 2:37 PM

#

on MHW yes

#

im using DX12

pastel monolith Nov 4, 2020, 2:37 PM

#

try DX11 and see if the stutter ram thing goes away

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:23 PM

#

do you guys expect the 3600 ryzen to drop price much with the new releases tomorrow?

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

nope

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:24 PM

#

nope
@main pulsar im sort of glad to hear that i rly want to go grab one today... i only plan on doing 60hz anyway with 4k for a lil while

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

if you wait for the new cpus to drop, then you can snag one of the many 3600 that will inevitably be listed on ebay for dirt cheap

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

ah i just hate used tho

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:25 PM

#

why?

#

its being pulled right out of a working system

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

thats a good tip for others. i dont trust it/ebay. id rather get the money together

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

ive been using ebay for a loooong time, as long as you know what you are doing, you will never get scammed

#

i never have

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

heh one time i used ebay teh seller used fake pics of a real product and sold me a knockoff

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:26 PM

#

i have ebay parts that i used, that i have given to others and they are still using

#

gotta watch out for those things

#

theres gonna be literally thousands of people upgrading from their 3600

#

so many are gonna end up on ebay for dirt cheap

#

like, 120 cheap

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

maybe ill try and wait its just a day xD. but also about 60 bucvks extra for new and in the box doesnt sound bad (microcenter price at least)

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:28 PM

#

yeah, but listings for them wont pop up untill at least a week after tomorrow

#

so if you really do need it now, then getting it now is fine

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

i have a 3080 FTW ultra coming in mail and i want to try and get a pc ready for it, when it comes in but i /could/ wait

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

well, at 4k60, the 3600 is a totally fine choice

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

i was expected suprise at the combo cheaping out on the processor haha

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:29 PM

#

no reason to get 5600x

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

I bought one thing on eBay

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

im pretty noob idk how id even update the bios on the board to be compatible with 5000 series (especially without a processor already...)

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

And it worked

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 3:30 PM

#

what would be a good mobo for a test bench?

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

500 series boards work out of box with 5000 series cpus

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

oh that makes sense idk i thought i heard otherwise once tho. ty for your help btw

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

np

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 3:31 PM

#

dont update ur bios for 5000 series just yet, you might brick your mobo and wont be able to use your existing cpu you cant revert back to the old bios as well

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:32 PM

#

if you are using a b450 or x470 board, then yes

#

but B550 and X570 dont need bios update, unless you are buying a much older used one

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:32 PM

dont update ur bios for 5000 series just yet, you might brick your mobo and wont be able to use your existing cpu you cant revert back to the old bios as well
@hollow kraken luckily i plan on getting the strix rog 570e so it should be good based on sassyfish, ty for warning tho thats scary

youre gonna pay 200+ for a router?

not the scalping

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:36 PM

#

there are MSI products that GN has rated highly

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:36 PM

lying about products and pretending they dont realize there defective, selling anyways

alot of my ram seems to be on standby I already used rammap to free the standby ram and it kinda just goes back after a while its causing some of my games to stutter

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

and why do you need PCIe gen 4?

#

i see no reason, unless you are overpaying for an ssd

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

Like me

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

i dont /need/ it but i plan to get gen 4 ssd in future upgrade. i work in data analysis

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

i see

#

so gigantic datasets?

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

pretty big but not gigantic i guess

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

just organizing/analyzing, or like calculations on datasets

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:40 PM

#

the benefit may not be worth it tbh. both

i use R

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:41 PM

#

the 5600x and its single core performance might be the better option. of your work is highly multithreaded, then something like the 3900x might be beneficial

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

the 5600x and its single core performance might be the better option. of your work is highly multithreaded, then something like the 3900x might be beneficial
@main pulsar not optimized for multithreaded in my coding. i think ill just try and wait

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

R runs as a single task. It is possible that some of the the support
functions (notably the BLAS) can be multithreaded, and this will often
(but not always) help if the task is intensive numerical linear algebra.
But even if a multithreaded BLAS is used (and it is not the default
build), the effect on a typical R task is very small.

#

this is semi meaningless to me

#

but it seems like it is not very multithreaded

#

either the 3600 or 5600x would be good, the 5600x wont make a huge difference in games, but will speed up tasks, such as R

#

whether or not that speed increase is worth 100 is dependant on how much your time is worth

#

how often does your system spend running R?

#

also, do you ever find yourself waiting for R to complete whatever task has been assigned to it in order to continue working?

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

def depends on the month, project based/contract work typically and fairly variable. higher use cases when analyzing a data set and not writing up about it could get to 3+ hours of script running. Not so bad to walk away and come back between necessarily for now

#

to be honest my use case isnt super intense

#

i just want to spoil myself :x

#

looking at cheaper mobos now tho

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

How much was that mobo?

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

ill find you a mobo dont worry

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

299 for the one i was looking at b4, highly stylized tho. partially wanted it cause it looked semi-noob friendly

#

1st build

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

so i assume you will be running possibly more than one gen 4 ssd in the future?

#

b550 gives one pcie gen 4 ssd slot, x570 can give around 3

naive pendant Nov 4, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

im soo confussed btwn b450 and b550

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 3:49 PM

id probably be fine with a single 2tb one actually

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

B550>B450

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

has to do with PCIe support, other IO interfaces, and cpu support

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

simple

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

I got the Asus prime x570 and kinda wish I got a cheaper one

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

ok, so b550 is still an option

naive pendant Nov 4, 2020, 3:50 PM

#

lol

#

i mean what better options does it have?

#

cuz its costlier than b450

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 3:50 PM

because the answer is extremely simple with that

You can get a good b550 for $100

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 4:04 PM

idc what your budget is

#

#

I can make it work

#

if it's <600$, I can make it work with used parts

@spring scarab 2tb of gen 4 storage is gonna cost you like 400 usd btw

@spring scarab 2tb of gen 4 storage is gonna cost you like 400 usd btw
@main pulsar im just gonna grab a 500gb intermediary gen 3 i think, esp if i end up getting 2 slots

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

yeah ik, but im thinking in the future

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 4:11 PM

looking at Gigabyte B550 AORUS Pro AC AMD AM4 ATX Motherboard now

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:12 PM

ive already picked out the SN750 500gb

#

good ssd

#

im looking at the AORUS ELITE

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

In the future, gen 4 won’t be as expensive

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

yeah i want to wait it out a bit

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

I got a b450 mobo

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

no onboard wifi on the elite eh

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

because i didnt need gen 4 speeds so i put that money towards a better gpu

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

elite has wifi

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

Why do you want the on board wifi?

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:13 PM

u dont need wifi if u have ethernet

he already bought it

#

why u put that in list \

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 4:14 PM

#

i gess 32gb ram is good enough for everything for forseeable future, was thinking initially i might do 16x2

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

oh ok if he bought it its fine

#

if ur doing rgb ram do 8 by 4

spring scarab Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

i have a 3080 ftw3 ultra coming xD im trying to cheap out on the rest a little

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

theres no real difference between 2x16 and 4x8, that board is good enough to handle both

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

im waiting for bug navi benchmarks

#

from reviewers

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

the differences come down to other issues with cheaper boards

#

but i understand if you think you may need 64 in the future

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

yeah cause sheaper boards have ass vrms

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

nope

#

not what i was thinking

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

oh lol

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

was talking about memory configs

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

but some cheaper boards might have only 2 dim slots

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

vrms have nothing to do with that

#

thats part of it

mine has 4 slots and im mostly gaming so im fine with it i have 16 gigs of ram

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

he lurks

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

4x8 doesn't make sense to me

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

looks cool

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

2x16 just better

#

@silent sandal I'm still here

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

4 x 8 looks better with rgb

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

in this scenario, they are the same

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

ye

#

its based on ur preference

2x16

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:17 PM

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

ye

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

board can handle 4 dimms at 3600 CL 16, and at that point the difference between 4 ranks of 8 chips and 4 ranks of 8 chips is nil

#

but yes, upgradability

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

is it tru that r5 5600x better than 10900k in gaming

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

we dont know

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

just a leak

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

we know that its better than 3600 at gaming

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

no reall

#

really

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

I wouldn’t trust leaks like that

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

10600k better for gaming than 10900k imo

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

ik just speculating reviews should come out today or tomorrow

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

5600x competing with 10600k

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

ye

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

10600k is 275

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

i think more people would go for 3600 because it will recieve a price drop

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

so it absolutly must outperform the 10600k

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

and upgrade ltr

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

im banking on the 5600x besting the 10600k, hence why i suggest it

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

im with u bro

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

of course, the 3600 already beats the 10600k in everything aside form gaming

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

what do u think about rocket lake cpus

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

I’m banking on 5900x not being a waste of money

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

kek

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

but 3900x already beat i9 in multithreaded tasks

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

i dont know anything on rocket or alder lake

#

but i do know that the whole -lake thing is getting old

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

ye

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

Truth

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

also 14+++++ is getting old

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

rocket and alder are supposed to be lga 1700 iirc

#

11th gen was something else

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

I’m hoping for some big thing from intel with these next cpus

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

no intel said 11th and 10th gen boards are compatible with eachother

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

oh, Rocket Lake-S is 1200

#

so alder lake is 1700

#

early 2021 pog

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

im not expecting big things amd hs 5nm next year

Maybe

main pulsar Nov 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

my 10th gen intel gonna last me a loooong time lol

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

lol

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

Zen 3 might turn out to be a waste of money

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

nah im betting it beat intel in gaming

#

gigahertz dont mean nothing if it cant have good ipc

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Not comparing it to intel

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

oh

#

amd will match or beat intel

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

I’m comparing 5900x to 3900x

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

sadl,y no more coolers in box

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

5900x might be a waste, but I’m getting it anyways

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

i would get 5800x

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

I wasn’t gonna use stock cooler anyways lol

#

I’m not just gaming

#

Hence why I don’t care for intel

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

5800x still very good editing cpu

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

Editing, rendering, graphic design, game design

#

I was going to get a 3900x

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

zen3 gonna sell out in seconds

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

But I was convinced by a friend to go for 5900x

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:27 PM

#

ok

#

i still cant get 3080 card

#

its still out of stocki aint paying overprice on ebay

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:29 PM

#

Just find all the scalpers, beat them up, then sell the cards at normal price

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:30 PM

#

lol

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

My guess is zen 3 will sell out in 5 minutes, not 5 seconds

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

i bet 2 minutes

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:34 PM

#

Radeon 6000 will go faster though cause of bad nvidia stock

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:42 PM

#

it good if u have money also some prices are unavailable so u have to factor that in

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

3 things: 1- expensive mobo you can find cheaper 2- do you really need the extra hdd space? 3- go for the Corsair rm 850 PSU instead

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

i mean it depends on budget really he already got good gpu and cpu if he has the extra money he should spend it

#

and windows 10 free u only have 32 gig kit u dont need 10 pro unless u have more than 128 gig ram

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

Not on an hdd though

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

ye hardrive like 2 or 3 terabyte is good

#

and he does not need 2 gen 4 ssds

#

use the 2 terabyte one not the 500 one

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

Literally for storage just have a single 2tb ssd and you’re good

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:48 PM

#

ye

#

i have 240 gig ssd and 2 terabyte hdd

#

its fine

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

I have a 2tb ssd

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

unless u are doing 4k or 8k 60 fps editing u dont need so much storage

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 4:49 PM

#

If in the future you really need more storage, then you can get it then

#

Cause ssds will be cheaper

bleak pebble Nov 4, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

yeah hdd and ssd will be ALOT cheaper

#

u can get 2 tb hardrive for 20 bucks in the future

cinder sphinx Nov 4, 2020, 4:53 PM

#

I was thinking 1 ssd for os and any other shet that would only install on c drive. 1 ssd for games and other softwares. like adobe products. 1 hdd for others files, i have a lot of anime 🙂

You reckon the 5950x's will sell out tho?

At least you’re not just gaming with it

If you were I’d have to get mad

Gaming is on the table lol, but yeah

Just why

noble wolf Nov 4, 2020, 5:02 PM

Literally a 5 will work great for just gaming

noble wolf Nov 4, 2020, 5:02 PM

I wanna sleep but I am worried that I'll miss out on the 5950x :c

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:03 PM

We don’t know when it launches yet right?

noble wolf Nov 4, 2020, 5:03 PM

Idk if it's November 5th USA Central time or what

Turns out Ryzen 5000 was a lie the whole time

#

Never existed

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:05 PM

in that case I will buy used 3900x lol

depends on how much you paid for it

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

Big sad

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

if you got a good deal on a 3900x it is a far better value than 5900x

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:09 PM

#

Probably yes

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

Yeah at this point I’m already past that

I’m getting a worse deal, but I just want the processor lol

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

I feel you

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

yeah AMD is charging a premium now that they have the single thread performance crown

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:10 PM

#

could hve held onto it until you secured the 5900

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

Didn’t have the money for that

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:11 PM

#

oof makes sense

#

best of luck im rooting for ya

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

I’m rooting for everyone except the people who just want to buy and resell

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

agree 100%

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:12 PM

#

Yes

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

I am honestly a bit concerned, I feel like if AMD thought they would have enough stock they would let retailers put up listings

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:13 PM

#

i think its to hold bots off as long as possible but who knows

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

but if there's not enough demand scalpers wont make any money

#

so it's a moot point

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

Yes but if you go on reddit it says that all stores and retailers are confused on what will happen

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:14 PM

#

keep listings off site til they need to be and yeah but precaution with whats currently happened with other launches is better than none

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

it's also not terribly difficult to have a bot that searches for product listings, or even takes a manually inputted url and checks out instantly

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

I know

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:15 PM

#

Yeah I think them holding off is only telling us that they’re being cautious, not low stock

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

best buy needs an evga style queue system

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

I genuinely considered setting one up but thought i would not be helping the situation even if it was just for myself

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:16 PM

#

I don't see why not

#

a cpu for you is one less that would probably have gone to a scalper

#

if bots turn out to be necessary to get one

vast granite Nov 4, 2020, 5:17 PM

I still have time so I will eventually get my hands on what I need/want so i decided against it personally

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:17 PM

Honestly I’m more worried about grabbing a gpu

naive pendant Nov 4, 2020, 5:18 PM

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

I will be waiting until nvidia releases a high vram model before upgrading

#

evga b stock is a good way to go

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

I got a 1660ti so im good for now

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:19 PM

#

you can probably resell for what you paid when you upgrade

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:20 PM

Yeah I just need to find an extra $400 now lol

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:20 PM

I wonder if amazon will get launch day stock

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

I hope

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

auto checkout on amazon is pretty trivial to implement

#

they really don't give a damn

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Amazon shipping is so much better than newegg

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

and returns

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

because Amazon is huge

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:21 PM

#

Yep

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

they probably don't even notice increase in traffic when new hardware launches

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:22 PM

#

I bought almost all of my parts on Amazon cause they were the same price, but free shipping

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

This^^^

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

Amazon had this promo where you spend $150 and use discover cashback and get $30 off

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

heh

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

then another promo where they give $10 off an order of $20 when you order through app

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:23 PM

#

I bought almost all of my parts off Newegg because they were cheaper AND free shipping

#

I don't have prime

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

Neither do I

#

So I use my mums account and have it shipped to me lol

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

why not use free newegg shipping

#

oh I don't have prime at all

#

We don't use amazon enough to warrant prime

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:24 PM

#

Newegg has free shipping?

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

It didnt for me

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

I got free shipping on 95% of everything I bought from newegg

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

Yeah the 2 things I got on newegg I had to pay shipping

vague siren Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

For me it wouldve cost 73 dollars of newegg shipping

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

the only thing that I remember didn't was NT-H2 because it was shipped by Noctua

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:25 PM

#

I only got those things on newegg cause Amazon didn’t have them

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:26 PM

it was the only thing that Newegg charged me shipping for that I can see

is it worth buying aftermarket paste for krakrn x63

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:27 PM

#

Nocua is best cooling company

#

@late pine it's called not worth buying a x63

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:27 PM

I care more about it lasting long than performance

eh

I wanted something I know 100% would fit in my nr200

I got a be quiet

I switched everything to ubiquiti for wireless networking

it has been rock solid

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:28 PM

and Noctua ships free mounting brackets >:P

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:28 PM

what motherboard is the best value for ya money. I'm looking for a b550 or x570 for the new cpus

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

6 year warranty

#

B550 Phantom Gaming 4.

#

100$

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

value and x570 aren't really things that should describe the same motherboard

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

@late pine btw I bet you this fits in your case >:P

The NH-L9a-AM4 chromax.black is an all-black version of Noctua’s award-winning NH-L9a-AM4 low-profile quiet CPU cooler for AMD Ryzen based HTPCs and Small Form Factor (SFF) builds. Thanks to the same proven heatsink design and NF-A9x14 PWM fan, it stays true to the NH-L9a-AM4’...

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

i still don't get the difference between x570 or b550

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

it has worse cooling performance though

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

does it thooo

#

@safe solar pcie 4.0 chipset lanes

#

that's all

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

the x63 literally barely fits

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

others are on a model-to-model basis

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

does noctua also make aio's

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

no

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

i thought b550 had that as weel

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

Noctua stays away from aios

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

why?

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

@safe solar B550 doesn't have PCIe 4.0 chipset lanes, it has PCIe 4.0 CPU lanes

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:30 PM

#

imagine noctua doing water cooling stuff

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

it took noctua years to make a non brown fan

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

i cant really imagine that now

#

bruh

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

Didn’t be quiet make an aio?

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

ye they do

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

yea the do

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

yes

#

they just released their new on

safe solar Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

is it any good

#

thats the question here

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:31 PM

#

no idea

#

not many reviews

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

I just have the dark rock pro 4

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

its on the, "great" scale

#

not best or godly

#

i mean it works

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

The aio or drp4?

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

the be quiet is refillable wich is the biggest selling point imo

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:32 PM

#

aio

#

ye

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

but only 3 year warrenty and no info on pump reliability, so I am sticking with nzxt for now

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:33 PM

i harlye when people install their aio wrong and complain about their thermals

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:33 PM

That’s gonna be me with my drp4

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:34 PM

i hated it BEFORE gn talked about it

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:35 PM

honestly probably a big reason why noctua doesn't want to do water cooling

#

user error causes bad experience and hurts brand reputation

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:35 PM

i mean your aio is just gonna be full of basically sparkling water

amd or intel which one would you pick to be destroyed

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

Intel

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

same

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

Cause I need my amd

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

it would suck to have a monopoly from either company

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:38 PM

#

lol

#

having no marketing competition makes a company lazy

#

what if amd was the leading gpu brand?

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

People seem to think they will be with these new cards

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

ye big navi is kinda beating the 3090 a bit

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:40 PM

#

I actually want to use CUDA though so I can't buy amd

#

hoping nvidia releases higher vram cards this summer though

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

3090 was a waste of money anyways

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

yeah 3090 is not worth it

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

wait what does amd use i forgot the name

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

doesn't even get titan drivers

#

amd has OpenCl I think?

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

like for their gpus

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

but tensorflow etc only natively supports nvidia

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

like they made something1 and something2

#

oh its rdna

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

the thing is right now machine learning toolkits are all written for nvidia, and datacenters where models are trained are all running nvidia hardware

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

rdna2 vs cuda, hmm

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

I am talking about the language

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

Cuda

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

CUDA

#

not the name of the cores

#

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA

CUDA

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

Cuda cores eh

#

:P

#

afaik bob talked about AMD GPUs supporting tensorflow, at least on linux

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

we are starting to reach the upper limit of how quickly gpu's can render games through brute force. The future is in AI upscaling and frame interpolation imo

#

so in the long run I think nvidia is still in the lead

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

are gpus named general purpose unit or graphics processing unit?

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

I think graphics

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

isn't this convo supposed to be in #graphics-cards tho?

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

doesn't matter

#

any convo can go anywhere

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

alr

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

anyways I seriously doubt Noctua will ever make an AIO

#

their whole spiel is long-lasting low maintenance cooling parts

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

they probably won't even make rgb fans

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

They have no reason to

#

and people who buy Noctua fans won't buy RGB fans

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

Rgb fans are excessive

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

the whole point is for good cooling with no compromises

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

but people who buy rgb fans will buy noctua rgb fans instead of corsair

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

that's why it took them like 2 years to get chromax fans in

#

they wanted them to look good while still performing the same

#

so they're not just doing a spray paint job

#

trying to get rgb into their already extremely optimised fans is going to be near impossible

#

without sacrificing performance

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:50 PM

#

So basically I wasted my money and should’ve gone noctua

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

what'd you get?

hollow kraken Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

also excessive wires

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

Noctua is also more expensive

#

but I personally would pay the Noctua tax

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

I am not buying aftermarket fans yet

#

if I build my pc and it is too loud for me then I will upgrade

#

but I want to try it as-is first

silent sandal Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

I got drp4

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

I have arctic P14s and a Noctua nf-p12 in my case

#

oh yea 1 issue with NH-D15 is ram clearance

#

that's the only downside to that cooler

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

also fitting in case

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

it's like 32mm to mobo

#

@late pine all actually good cases support it

#

and remember

#

Most good air coolers are ~160mm anyways

#

like DRP4

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

I am building ssf so I can fit my computer in a suitcase and bring it with me to/from uni

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:52 PM

#

I might build sff

#

and get like a NH-L9a

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

I have a friend who can get me employee discount on intel cpu, so that would be like ~$280 for a 10900k

#

so I got the water cooler to have any hope of cooling it

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

I mean

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:53 PM

#

but intel literally hasn't stocked their employee store

hearty cape Nov 4, 2020, 5:53 PM

Is there any way to buy a set of 8x32 5000mhx ddr4 ram?

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:53 PM

at stock even a L9a will do fine

why

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM

not with disabled power limits

Why not

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM

what motherboard will support that

#

lemme ask you that question

hearty cape Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

Probably none

hollow thorn Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM

#

I know 0 motherboard that will support that

exactly

:P

late pine Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM

most 32gb sticks won't overclock that high

hearty cape Nov 4, 2020, 5:54 PM
