Depends. If you use any upscaling or reconstruction technique DLSS Performance at 4k, the 1080p numbers can be relevant
you can bet money they will nearly all be the same
I'm using ddr4 3200 myself
Hi there
We have now pre-sold over 500 of the new 12th gen CPU's, we shall be shipping or trying to ship all these out on 4th November. Do not worry we still have all lines in stock so anybody ordering a 12th gen from OcUK will get a CPU still, we really have owned the UK market on this launch as we have huge stock piles of 12th gen in our warehouse.
We are now pushing for more DDR5, but alas we also have the largest range of DDR5 in the UK as well with more planned.
Have you had any luck getting the stand offs for your AIO yet?
I imagine the game benchmarks are done at 1080p where you will see 10% +/- and as resolution increases gains go down to almost nothing ... any 4K benchmarks ?
Yeah will become relevant then to a degree but I'm more interested in the native benchmark performance rather than ones using upscaling but i get your point that it could still be relevant
Exactly what i am thinking as 99% of games will be gpu bound at native resolution so will see very little uplift unless playing e-sports title at silly fps but then most will be playing at 1080p not 4k . really looking forward to the benchmarks tomorrow either way
Because it looks big, it looks bulky, it looks unwieldy, it looks impractical and difficult to work with.
"Looks" in this instance is not referring to the aesthetics.
I paid €369 Euro's for 2x16GB 5200/CL36 Corsair Dominator Platinum RGB from an EU site last Friday and that included Tax which is Irish VAT @ 23%. Have the DDR5 prices shot up so much already in the last week that you are paying £400/€472 and that only includes 20% UK VAT!!No worries. Definately the 'safe' option, cheap 16GB kit just to get things running and play with before Christmas etc. I don't expect the good 6200Mhz - 7000Mhz kits to be available in the UK before next year, judging from responses from live chat's I've done with retailers. Not prepared to pay £400 for a basic 4800Mhz/5200Mhz kit.
The i3 9100 and Ryzen 1600X are looking like bargains.
That kind of thing tipped me over the edge from buying my brother a cheaper 12600K and lower end board and DDR4 Ram and me keeping my 'still not finished building' 5900X/RTX3090 based system...over to deciding to give him my 5900X/X570/4x8GB 3600CL18 and instead buying a 12900K/Maximus Hero/2x16GB 5200/CL36 for myself.looking forward to the benchmarks myself
and if nothing else more power can lead to a much smoother experiance even if frames are the same
