Is it worth waiting for Zen 3 and AM5? If I buy a AM4 motherboard right now, is it basically going to be obsolete next year?
Zachary Green
Yes.
Robert Flores
Zen 3 is 7nm+ AM4
Jaxon Phillips
Am4 supported THROUGH 2020. DDR5 is not ready yet. If anything, DDR5L would be available next year, with full DDR5 rollout in 2021. If I weren't so lazy I could give links, but I am.
Ryan Cox
To the guy with the iGPU problem, I agree with the other user and you should rma both cpu and mb. You also mentioned paste getting into the pins? That is most likely the cause of your problem.
David Anderson
Why is every panel 27" now?
Caleb Ramirez
3600mhz cL17 or 4266 cl19 for Ryzen 3900x? Those are the only2 I can get my hands on
Nathan Garcia
Will the RMA not notice there was paste in the cpu socket if I clean it well?
Anthony Davis
1440p is wasted on lower res
Cameron Cook
reasking difference between buying from amd website 5700 vs buying sapphire 5700 is the manufacture different?
You can only hope they don't. It really depends on your luck. Maybe the tech won't spot it
Michael Rogers
4266 ofc
Brayden Williams
I am self employed. I edit video and do photo work taken as RAW files from my DSLR. Local Microcenter has the Threadripper 2950X 16c32t for $500. Vs the 3900X 12c24t for $500. Which am I better off with?
why do you retards keep removing the pcpartpicker saved configs from the op ?
Lucas Ortiz

Cameron Brown
looking for a good gaming monitor for under 600. Ideally 1440p, 144hz, either going to be getting a rtx 2080 or the ti. Is there a "sweet spot" for monitor size? I see a lot of 27", should I stick with that size or go for bigger if its within budget? Also, what about HDR? Worth it?
Angel Collins
>bought a Creative x-fi titanium ages ago >still soldiers on like a trooper good card
Ethan Murphy
Burh. Get a 5700 XT. RT and DLSS is a meme.
Wyatt Cox
Alternatively recommend a board without wifi but with adaptive RGB in the same price category, x570 only.
Anthony Rogers
...
Dominic Collins
Lmao

Hunter Hill
Be the op if u want a thread with that gay link in it
Yeah rgb is so much more useful and important
Nathaniel Ramirez
Tfw bought a 2200g and now the 3200g is just more 12eur
Ayden Evans
I already have fans for it, and in that budget tier is mostly a baseling feature. I shouldn't have mentioned it because most likely it's there. But feel free to recommend a mobo, on par with those two in a similar price range. I want it for a 3700x, and the built in wifi is very attractive.
Robert Brooks
i'm upgrading from a nvidia gt 540 and would like to use it this summer before being cucked by work in september is the >wait for nitro+ really worth cucking myself this summer? legit question
Built my PC and started playing yesterday. My friends can hear all my YouTube and game noises when I'm discording with them. I'm using a mic splitter with earphones, do you guys have any ideas what's wrong?
Rate please. Coming from an old Sandy era 6c12t Xeon with 16GB RAM and Nvidia Quadro FX5800. I have so much work on my plate lately that my encoding times and literally preventing me from finishing more work (and thus getting paid). I don't know what CPU cooler would be good either. Is stock enough to handle a 3900X under 100% load with PBO in full swing for literal days on end?
Zachary Howard
Enjoy your fps drops worse than a 3700 lmao
Henry Powell
That ram looks absurdly expensive, isn't it just 3200 cl16?
Xavier Brown
>Hello and Welcome to Cuck Deals!
Carter Foster
Still have only $28. My i7 2700k system isn't going to sell for enough to buy one, either.
Evan Young
How you're using the splitter
Tyler Morris
no, that's the c14 b-die kit
John Hughes
Ah, guess I googled poorly
Jaxson Brown
Get your ears checked and put the volume down a bit
Chase Barnes
only case to wait right now is if you're looking to buy a 2080S, the mid range cards are out and benchmarked.
Matthew Long
Are your headphones open back? Dial up the slide on discord mic settings
Easton Moore
Like an echo or like full blown relay? Maybe it's somehow using stereo mix
Isaac Peterson
if you only need 32gb ram, you'd be better off getting 4 8gb sticks that are single rank instead of 2 sticks that are dual rank
Ian Ortiz
push to talk you nigger

aaaand it's gone if you missed it, better luck tomorrow!

not interested in nvidia lower price/perf

after watching some 5700/XT reviews i came across someone mentioning sapphire vega 56es for 250€ (in germany) with someone else adding that flashing those to v64 bioses means getting close to 2070 performance (of course excluding rtx memes). im currently running a 4690 and a r9 280x, would that v56 be reasonable with this chip (and potentially a newer system later down the line, with amd being fine wine and all that), maybe even without the flashing (which has people decidedly being undecided on wether its worth it)?
Nathaniel Adams
Non-blower 5700 XT and 2070 Super fucking when?
Mason Green
single rank, one set of memory chips dual rank, two single ranks on one stick of ram, takes additional processing time to access memory because it has to calculate which rank to access
Colton Gonzalez

Jason Wright
DLSS may be a meme, but the verdict isnt out yet on RT
Liam Green
It was discussed here as well, and you need the pulse variant for some reason which is a bit more expensive than others.
Brandon Miller
i thought i'd have to spend over 2k for high end gaming but looks like it cane be done for less than 1500
Grayson Williams
My PC has two Jack's and I use a splitter to so my earphones can enter both jacks >Open back? No it isn't using stereo mix
Aiden Watson
How much of a performance loss would I get running 4 sticks of dual rank RAM? Money really isn't an issue as is and I wouldn't mind just buying 4x16GB of CL14 3200MHz now. I'm RAM starved on my current machine when working and it's a shitty feeling.
Oliver Sanders
Nixeus edg27s v2 400 ameridollars
Ryder Stewart
well, i explicitly found the pulse at mindfactory for 250 (which had me surprised as well)
Ayden Nelson
What do you do that you need equipment this powerful?
Ryan Martin
Lucky, around here that costs more. Although having a polaris card, I won't upgrade soon since I would need a new monitor as well.
Luke Perez
>be me >waitfag for 10 years >timetospend.jpg >buy vega 64 nitro+ with 2600X >5700xt and 3600x come out should i return them and wait for AIB 5700xt?
i checked some other places and the card is usually around 300 instead, so would this be a good buy in general with thinking about flashing memes later?
Benjamin Miller
if you need the capacity then that's all you can do I also got 2 sets of 2x16gb for my build but to answer your question, I haven't seen a benchmark yet comparing single and dual rank with new ryzen and x570 so I'd just be guessing
Jose Davis
go for 3600
Levi Wright
Depends on how much you paid for Vega. If more or less as much as XT costs, consider returning your stuff. Or stop thinking about it and be happy.
Aiden Nguyen
Take a whole shit load of pictures at 10K x 10k. 4k videos, slo-mo shots, you name it. Started with family photos, weddings and parties but recently discovered a gold mine for parents who want video of their high school kid playing sports to send to their prospective college in hopes of a scholarship. Word travels, and now I have like 30 people who all want this sort of stuff. The 3900X and dual 2080Ti's sl DRASTICALLY cut down on my rendering and encoding times. Less time crunching means more jobs done means more money made.
Eli Garcia
Can I drop any ddr4 into an amb system even if the memory box doesnt have an (((amd apporved))) sticker?

Josiah Gray
I guess it is but look up the whole thing because I didn't pay too much attention to it when others mentioned.
Ayden Kelly
are any of the new gpus released in the $150 bracket? i'm going to be buying a gpu in the month or so
