Why change your mind? Do it. They need the R&D money.

Some games take up to 12. But they are early access and most likely won't take more than 6 or 7 in the future. 8 is good enough as long as you don't have 80tabs opened on your browser on the background.

THAT is what was used to get the performance benchmarks you keep posting each time without context. Not only are yo downplaying the components used, but also their price.

Again if all of this escaped you, here is the man who made the benchmark, saying it CLEAR as cryztal

No. That website is shit. 2600OC'd performs better than the 8400. See

you need to go back to and prove that the motherboard matters at fucking all when the memory controller is on the cpu

I have like double or even triple that amount of tabs open. Damn, maybe it is a consideration to get 32gb of ram.

god I wish AMD would btfo Intel once and for all. I just can't justify upgrading to a Ryzen when overall gaming performance will be the same as my 4790k and at the same time I can't justify $700 for a 8700k setup that offers so few things in productivity.

when are the new Ryzen supposed to be released ?

There is a little star next to the URL of the site in your browser. It allows you to save the website to your favorites. You know, so you don't have to keep it open if you want to visit it later.

You should consider this instead of buying large amounts of RAM when prices have never been so high.

Lol if I had money I'd buy it eventhough I am not gaming. Would do it just for lulz to post a pic here so the AMD shills are even more mad.

Factually wrong, depends on the phases, VRM cooling, what CPU you are using since some are more or less power hungry.

>cheap b die works on almost any $100 b450
You can have a shit bios that wont let your BEST, b-die RAM go over 2999
and thats with a 170$ X470 board
Here is just one example youtu.be/gXwLcr7qj1c?t=132

It's like this around every launch whether it's Intel, AMD, or Nvidia. Whether it's actual shills, or false flaggers. Mostly falseflaggers. Or just people who want to enjoy the drama and flip sides.

>t. person who posts the OP sometimes

With B-die, you do get a bit better performance than from the 4790k. It's also more power efficient. But yeah it's not huge, and your CPU is good enough still that you could wait for the 3600X/3700X.

Uhhh not every b450 is fine.
The A-Pro and Bazooka are. Pro4 too. But there are some that you really don't want to overclock an 8 core on.
It's a better situation than 3 phase Z370 boards which are hardly sufficient for a 8350k let alone a 8700k, despite Z370 being the high end chipset for Intel, but it's not
>literally any board is fine
Though for X470, you can't go wrong as long as it's not Gigabyte, at least.

Kek okay. As long as it's not Gigabyte nor Biostar. It's easy to forget Biostar.

>biostar
wow a shitty mobo is shit, also nice samefagging

The comments since the video was released are all positive.

That AMD shill is talking out of his ass once again.

DDR5 when and what it'll be like, e.g. freqs and timings?

Yeah, it's good. Only real reason to get better is if you need an external clockgen which most people don't.

fuck off
DDR6 when

>Phases don't matter
>RAM compatability doesn't matter
>*NEW* BIOS doesn't matter

>i-it's just BIOSTAR!
The comment I was disproving that motherboards don't matter and that CPU speed isn't effected by a motherboard or that RAM speed/compatibility isn't effected by a motherboard.
Look here fuck heads

Are their people on this board that think a 200 billion dollar trust doesn't have the money to hire pajeets to sit on here and shill for them all day?

Thanks user, that doesn't sound like something I'd need

I saw you get btfo in the /v/ archive, you should go back

Thanks man, now I gotta go find a GTX 1080ti

2600X/2700(x) or 9600k/9700k for gaming at 1440p strictly? I'm still on a 2600k @ 4.8ghz however my motherboard is starting to give up

This is some clever new shilling to try and cope with how shitty the new 9000 series is.

No one who frequents /pcbg/ says motherboard doesn't matter. Generally the A-Pro or Bazooka is recommended as a minimum, even though there are cheaper (and worse) boards. Usually Tomahawk or Mortar for something a bit better. X470 Prime Pro for something higher end still. Then Crosshair, Taichi, or M7 for high end.
Biostar never gets recommended. Like fuck off.
There's maybe one guy saying
>hur dur motherboard doesn't matter
It's not the consensus. You aren't BTFOing anyone.

That user saying any $100 b450 can OC fine is probably right if you exclude Biostar and Gigabyte.
Even that ASUS TUF board, as bad as it is, is still decent enough

SHHHHH everyone don't talk about skylake-x 2.0 divert conversation to $350 overclocked housefires

It doesn't really matter.
Intel gets a noticeable edge at 1080p. But at 1440p it's very small.

>his is some clever new shilling to try and cope with how shitty the new 9000 series is.
I have been telling you amd shills for literal months to Stop being shills and add a disclamer as to what hardware was used instead of just posting 2600 OC beats 8400, you refused. I made a picture to literally just provide source on the info and prove you are manipulating faggots.

>well motherboards don't even matter

Keep coping. The reality is I hate shills and just because you shill for AMD doesn't make you any better than intel shills.

ur new go back to /v/ now and argue about mobos there

all your points are anecdotal evidence and no actual proof

mate I'm an AMD fan but they've had literal housefires in the past as well, all I've implied is that there's one angry faggot who keeps forcing this word here and in a couple of other threads non-stop

>Linus OP
>AMDomination in the OP
What timeline is this?

After the 1770W stunt Intel is once again the supreme king of housefires.

So obviously I should go with AMD because they're much cheaper however which model should I pick?

What's your purposes?

8700k is almost $400 now holy shit

In Europe it's over $550.

I play games at 1440p and occasionally I might try out a new emulator.
