    5900x, or 6800?

    Get now whichever available and closer to MSRP and later/when possible the other. If equaly available on MSRP, I'd go for the GPU.

    NVIDIA Bans Reviewer for Concentrating on Rasterization Instead of Ray Tracing

    Since nVidia tried and suceeded in controlling AIB's line of product renaming to make nVidia's GPU sound and look more premium compared to AMD ones, nothing can surprise me anymore. They are pure evil. This is compared to what Intel did with bribing retailers and OEMs when AMD surpassed them...

    I was minding my own business then bam! I own a 3800X uh oh...

    I would get the 5600X if I had a high-end GPU or planned to buy one in next 1-2 years. If not, 3800X will be great CPU for years.

    Are the AMD drivers really that bad?

    My 5700 Pulse works well with 20.1.3. Early 2020 edition drivers had some instabilities but now it is rock solid.

    2700X vs. 3600X

    2700X if you are to use all of its 16 threads, or else 3600 for the same money. Next best thing is 3700X imho as 3600X is a bit of non-product. Very little to offer for $50 more. 3800X exists to allow AMD to beat 9900K is most apps or else it shouldn't exist either.

    AMD does it again.

    Me thinks that all RX5X00 series are dedicated to Navi

    Do we still need spinning drives?

    Re-playing good games isn't something rare, don't you think? And you can replay a great game any time if you don't have to install it again if it is 60-100GB large eh? After all, new drives with bog cache size don't cause problems in gaming. Just a few secs more to load it at first.

    Do we still need spinning drives?

    For big games of 60-100GB of size, I will still need at least a 3-4TB to be ready for the next few years. Not willing to uninstall great games for newer ones every few months. So, yes!

    PSA: No Ryzen 3000 Pre-orders Today (1st July)

    Just 2 models of 24C and 32C for TR4 would be enough for this platform and whoever need more should go for an EPYC server imho.

    How long have you used your power supply?

    Mine is a Zalman Z550 that is in my PC for more than 7 years now

    Who is looking to upgrade to Zen2

    DDR5 for desktop not until 2021 imho. Zen3 will be either DDR4 only or hybrid. My 5 cents.

    Forbes - "AMD Killing Off Threadripper Processors Suddenly Makes Perfect Sense" - ??!?!?

    At least a model using Zen2 cores-chiplets for TR4 will be offered later this year or early in 2020. Most possibly a 32 cores highly clocked. My 5 cents.

    AMD Talks 3D Stacking at Rice Presentation

    Zen4 might be a stacked arch I guess? 2022 and on 5nm maybe?

    Windows 7 Is One Obstinate OS

    By saying this, you think also that any PC, server that has a non-fixable problem related to security should stop running on any network too? Intel CPUs have some of those unfixable problems (a new one is discovered every few months) and are used in most rervers worldwide.

    New Speculative Execution Bug Allegedly Affects Intel CPUs

    7nm Rome chips cannot arrive soon enough for servers, cloud and data centers. Tables are turning hyper fast now...
