    3070 GPU advice

    I have a 3070 FE + 5600x with corsair tx550m. 0 issues so far, so even 550w is more than enough. The 650W recommendation is with a 10900K for which, 600W should be minimum. Plug 1x 6pin+2pin (the bit dangling from the 6pin) from your PSU into the 8 pin socket on GPU, then plug the other 6pin...

    4 sticks now better than 2? R5 5600X Tested

    its to do with the rank, 4x single rank is better than 2x, but you can also do 2x dual rank (typical on 16gb sticks).

    30xx Series Founders Edition

    Managed to grab a 3070 FE to be delivered monday. I strongly recommend the following twitter account: https://twitter.com/PartAlert , its quite spammy but without it I wouldn't have managed to get this.

    AMD Zen 3 (5000 Series), rumored 17% IPC gain.

    Im currently considering, 5600x + 3060ti upgrade or a 3600 (hopefully b.friday sale) + 3070. I play at 1080p 144hz and would like to achieve this framerate on as many games as possible. I know the real answer is wait for benchmarks but since the 3070 stock situation might be difficult, im...

    AMD Zen3 event thread

    if you could get a 3600 for £145 or less as it was early this year, that is 1/2 the price of 5600x for what? 20% less performance? Could put the extra £145 on a better gpu or just save it for the next upgrade/build. 5600x is really just terrible value.

    Ryzen 5600x vs 3700x

    As above, consoles will reserve some footprint for the OS. 6 core will be just fine for the next 3-4 years but is likely to end up as quad core is now, it will handle newer releases just fine but if you multi-task (stream/record/heavy browser) you'll need an upgrade then and by then we will...

    AMD Zen3 event thread

    From the performance comparison charts vs intel are they using intel cpus at stock or oc, because then it doesn't seem so great given intel have had price cuts.

    AMD Zen3 event thread

    what a disappointment in the low end, $100 more for x600 and they box in the crappy stealth cooler. AMD are also offering far cry 6 for free but only with 5800x and above, on top of that according to Gamers Nexus there won't be a non-x version for the 5600x either. Put that all together and...

    AMD Zen 3 (5000 Series), rumored 17% IPC gain.

    The consoles house underclocked Zen 2s and we have no idea how much of its resources are reserved for os/system, so imo a good 6 core desktop cpu will probably still match/outperform them. Remember also the consoles are targeting 4k so in most cases of frame rate, cpu matters less as games...

    3060Ti right from the off?

    Almost certainly 3060ti is a response to something AMD are launching, which supposedly is a 8 or 12gb gpu about 10% below 2080ti priced around $400. 3060ti will probably be slightly better or worse at the same price and its rumoured to launch end of october.

    The email you got was probably a delayed email from when it was changed, it is fairly common that these sorts of confirmation emails are delayed several hours or even 24 hours later.

    ** NVIDIA RTX 30 SERIES (3090 / 3080 / 3070) NOW ONLINE AT OcUK **

    The dimensions should be listed on the manufacturer web pages of the cards, at least the ones i've checked. For example the 3070 founders: Length 9.5" (242 mm) Width 4.4" (112 mm) Height 2-Slot

    NVIDIA ‘Ampere’ 8nm Graphics Cards

    There's a 20gb 3080 specification also, so likely they will launch this as well. Have to wait for AMD's new GPUs to know for sure.

    Logitech G203 double click problem

    This is a problem with all logitech mice due to the rubbish mouse switches they use. I had a G305 for over a year and the wireless was amazing however It developed the click issue + clicks going off when holding down a button. Nothing to do with the endurance rating just a design flaw/cheaping...

    3600 vs 10600k

    General usage: 3600 is better gaming: 10600k is better (+ a lot better /w overclock) However given the 10600k is about £80-100 more and needs a cpu cooler and on top of that needs a more expensive z490/b460 motherboard, its not worth potentially £150-200 more cost, when you can make that saving...
