I just noticed it has an 8 pin and a 4 pin power CPU connector, the same as the Biostar Buildzoid looked at, that must mean the 9900K uses 400 Watts......

I build PC's for people all the time. It's just a natural reaction to recommend good parts to people. Not sure why you took it as a negative.

Yep, got me worried as well because my CH6 also has 8pin and 4pin connectors........................does that mean both the 1700 i had and the 2700x i have now are also pulling 400w out the wall. I can't imagine where all the heat from that 400w is going

Amusingly I can attest to the 1950X pulling 400W. But I'd be very surprised if the 3800X or 3850X do. 50% node shrink with many updates and about only a 800MHz increase in frequency doesn't equal 400W on the 16c. That it can possibly feed 600W doesn't mean it is going to be pulling it. I think Buildzoid was more than a little off the mark there.

that or video cards got it completely wrong and their tease was actually two z390 boards.. either way x570 will adopt the same visual looks
depends, vega 7 was node shrink and still eats juice and power . Classic case of once you go past their optimum defined stock/boost settings. Power eff and heat greatly increase .
though as most say, not going to be a 400w monster , unless under LN2
Again for dual CPU sockets for chips with lower power, more about its delivery then the amount .

The Radeon VII is basically Vega without much if any changes on 7nm. It wasn't really designed for the node. I'm not really that surprised it's still bad on power...depends, vega 7 was node shrink and still eats juice and power . Classic case of once you go past their optimum defined stock/boost settings.

I'm kinda screwed either way as I have a Vega64 that's happy to pull 400W and a 1950X that's also happy to pull 400W...

Radeon VII is 30% faster with 15% less power vs Vega 64, that's about a 40/45% performance per watt difference.depends, vega 7 was node shrink and still eats juice and power . Classic case of once you go past their optimum defined stock/boost settings. Power eff and heat greatly increase .

On the flip side the 1200W PSU is actually used

You know what you have to do then.
Another Vega 64!

Mor boards. MSI this time.
Personally very keen to see gigabytes boards because they are likely what I will go for.

His YouTube channel is called actually hardcore overclocking so I'm not sure what you're expecting, maybe a disclaimer at the start of each video.
He's talks about actually hardcore overclocking and like everything IMO it's the responsibility of the reader, listener, viewer to be aware of what they're consuming, not the other way around.
True but as event over the last few years have show us some people aren't great when it comes to critical thinking.
True but the reason it's the blind leading the blind is because there was bugger all information out there on the technicality's of motherboards, the power solutions, the practicalities of design choices, and the actual substance of motherboards, I'm not saying he's an expert or anything, I'm just saying that there was a gap in the 'market' (market being people wanting to know more about the subject) and whether intentionally or not, for better or worse, he's filled that void.
I'd love for reviewers to go into greater technical details on the design of motherboards, how efficient X power deliver is, how dumb or not it is to cover VRM heatsinks in plastic shrouds, trace lengths, and things like that but they don't, at most we get these are the features written on the box, this is what the board looks like, this is what the BIOS screen looks like and some benchmarks.

lol, what
. So if someone is telling viewers that motherboard vendors should be using doublers, those who then go out looking for motherboards sporting a more "fitting" power solution whilst not understanding the implications of processing delay and sag should already know these things? No, it's up to to the vlogger to use proper due diligence.
Not sure how that's an excuse for misinforming people. If you don't fully understand something or aren't qualified, don't preach.
My edit did add what i hope is better clarification, and yes it's the responsibility of the reader, listener, viewer to be aware of what they're consuming, not the other way around, or are you saying everyone is so dumb that their incapable of critical thinking?lol, what
So ignorance is better?

Amended my post. You cannot be serious, though. You're basically giving a greenlight for people to post misinformation and not worry about it. Which ironically is quite rife in the tech media.
Anyway, it's a non arguement. Vloggers should simply do fact checking. These things can be harmful.

No and you know full well that wasn't what i said, i said it's the responsibility of the reader, listener, viewer to be aware of what they're consuming, not the other way around, not as you're implying that they should be knowledgeable on the subject matter, but that they should be aware of what they're consuming, in the same manner as people should be aware of the food they consume and the quality or lack thereof of it.
And when there's no information out there who's fault is that, you're (third person you are) basically telling a parched man not to drink that water over there because it's polluted but not providing any that isn't.
It's not a non argument because you're expecting people to do fact checking when there's next to no available facts to check things against, show me where someone discusses the implications of using doublers on motherboards and the processing delay and sag in a manner that ordinary people can relate to, as i said you're basically saying ignorance is better because in you're opinion the little people just wouldn't understand, whether intentionaly or not you're being incredibly condescending.
