I am looking for two models in particular:
- Asus ROG STRIX B550-I GAMING Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/XBH8TW/reviews/asus-rog-strix-b550-i-gaming-mini-itx-am4-motherboard-rog-strix-b550-i-gaming?rating=4
- MSI MPG B550I GAMING EDGE WIFI Mini ITX AM4 Motherboard...
Old thread, but I manually overclocked and dropped my 5600x temps a good bit. Done with two different cpus and two different motherboards. People claiming manual over clocking with AMD is dead, but it seemed to make my rigs run cooler and they still perform well according to cinebench.
This. The more foolish consumers that take these price hikes the more GPU vendors will continue to raise prices.
They're their own worst enemy.
That's what I've done the past several generations. This shit is ridiculous. Clearly gaming is not my primary hobby.
Try not to take it too personally, hard is full of salty old guys. I won't pay the early adoption fee, but I'll try it when it becomes available for free.
Yeah, they had listed it for $450 a few weeks ago and I laughed. I logged in to refresh some of my listings and saw they dropped it to $275, I messaged them offering $250 and they said yes. I was shocked to be honest.
