why do you think i have been saying competition was good @stoic island ?

#

:)

stoic island Nov 9, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

I mean

#

why would they

#

hardware lock PL

#

when they have like 20 competitors that don't

@barren crypt the motherboard has a hardware bios update button

cursive wharf Nov 9, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

At first their cards were good, then they changed production for some reason. Idk what happened

earnest olive Nov 9, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

so you will be fine to run the 5600x with it without needing another cpu

#

just need to download bios onto a usb from another pc

stoic island Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

@cursive wharf but anyways, fr, you sure about turing having hardware PL limits?

#

I read about people flashing vbios and getting a higher PL on the 2070 I currently have

earnest olive Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

i bought a ventus 2070 super, possibly the worst cooler ever

stoic island Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

or do you mean only turing ventus cards

earnest olive Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

thermal throttled pretty hard at stock

barren crypt Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

wait

earnest olive Nov 9, 2020, 11:58 PM

#

needed to be undervolted by 150mV to stop thermal throttling

foggy hazel Nov 9, 2020, 11:59 PM

#

@stoic island consider this: take the concept of binning. And keep refining it. and you end up with hardware PL limits

cursive wharf Nov 9, 2020, 11:59 PM

I think their best 2080Ti was 450w/500w(Lightning X?). Even on custom loop (so no really exotic stuff) 2080Ti could do 630w

not quite throttling but on the cusp

EPS 4pin could probs do 240w before melting

stoic island Nov 10, 2020, 12:13 AM

that's also true, but before melting is a high standard

poor VRMs if it's a board with just 4 pin

and usually they do melt, seen that for EPS 8 pin

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 12:14 AM

@still bay if it's for gaming, a 5600X is better, mobo seems overpriced, ram is definitely overpriced for 3200c16, otherwise looks alright

cursive wharf Nov 10, 2020, 12:18 AM

@barren crypt AsRock Pro4 b550M is like 99 pound and Phantom Gaming 4 is like 105 pound. TUF has no features that really make it worth the extra money unless you really need the better VRMs. Tho in that case I'd assume 5950x OC or something and you'd be getting a better mobo anyways. So basically, not really that great of a choice usually

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 12:18 AM

but i don't know if that applies to a $60 H310 board

stoic island Nov 10, 2020, 12:19 AM

intel is weird

maybe the mobo manufacturer just wanted to see the world burn

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 12:19 AM

i bought a b550 aorus elite for $150 and i'm very happy with it

#

better ram overclocking than my old b450 tomahawk max, vrms are good enough for an OC 5950x, has exactly the rgb headers i need and has sata ports on the bottom of the board

#

having sata ports on the bottom of the board seems surprisingly rare on b550

cursive wharf Nov 10, 2020, 12:21 AM

If you need the VRMs and still maintain best quality at cheap price, TUF was the best last I checked given the price. Maybe good for like 5800x major OC or smth. Tho I did check some weeks ago now

also doesn't have a sata port on the bottom like i needed

yeah i won't deny that is nice

#

b550 pro4 has post code display on the bios splash screen

#

which actually saved me while i was doing a build on one

told me that there was a faulty usb device

no BIOS flashback thing tho

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 12:33 AM

not sure i would have ever figured that out without that post code display

#

the wifi adapter i bought for it was faulty and preventing boot somehow

#

not a fan of having to plug in sata to the side of the board for cable management reasons

#

bottom looks better

#

which is why it surprises me that so many b550 boards only have sata ports on the right

you're fine

does a bios flash button just auto update bios or what

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:42 AM

it allows you to update bios via USB

lets you update bios with a usb drive

without cpu

without gpu

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:42 AM

and a cpu or no

the entire point is

#

you can update to a bios that supports ryzen 5000

without needing a ryzen 3000

you don't need a cpu for bios flash button

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:44 AM

any balanced build with a ryzen 5000 is no longer a budget build

mhm

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:45 AM

since the minimum gpu you'd be wanting to pair with a ryzen 5000 is like, an rtx 2080 super

stoic island Nov 10, 2020, 1:45 AM

#

honestly a b550m hdv being 80$ evens out a lot of the 'saved' money from b450 for the upgradability

it's a board by board basis

#

we're supposed to know around jan 2021

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:46 AM

#

all amd really said was "we won't stop board mfrs from adding support"

stoic island Nov 10, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

it was more "we'll work with em, but they're gonna do most of the work"

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

something like a gigabyte b450m ds3h getting ryzen 5000 support is questionable

#

although the vrms should be enough for a 5600x

foggy hazel Nov 10, 2020, 1:48 AM

#

"since the minimum gpu you'd be wanting to pair with a ryzen 5000 is like, an rtx 2080 super" <- i dont agree on the GPU part there @earnest olive

#

for a gaming build? okay-ish

#

for a build in general? no.

earnest olive Nov 10, 2020, 1:49 AM

5950x + gt 710 is perfectly valid for workloads that don't scale with gpu acceleration

#

though i would not call a build with a $800 cpu a budget build either

#

gonna want some good board and cooling

foggy hazel Nov 10, 2020, 1:51 AM

not calling it budget at all :)
