Alder Lake-S leaks

AMD has already said they will not be going down the eco route cores (little cores as he puts it) for desktop cpus.. So mr clickbait can find a new topic based on reality. Guessing he didn't watch the AMD interview.. This is why I keep saying he's a snake oil salesman (MLID).
 
5000D ordered with a 120mm Arctic PWN PST fan :cool: The changes over the 4000D were enough to warrant the extra cost for me and I will mount the rad on the front side area as that looks most efficient leaving 2x 140mm for front intake.

Nice!

My Asus mobo still showing pre-order though which is not cool...

Edit*
Is a rear exhaust even needed any more? I realise now I will have the top vents to use as exhaust, so could just move my current 140mm PST to the rear top that becomes the exhaust...

Nice :)
 
What about orders such as mine, for CPU & Motherboard - if not enough motherboard stock tomorrow, will the CPU's be shipped out separately on the same order?

Edit - Doh, didn't see Gibbo's first post. Fingers crossed I ordered early enough for what stock there will be of the Maximus Z690 Hero
Well I ordered at 4:19pm (41 minutes before pre-orders should have opened) so assume I bagged one of the apparently few Asus Maximus Hero's with my 12900K. I'll be very annoyed if not!! LOL
 
AMD "we are not doing Big - Little cores"

MLID "AMD are doing Big - Little cores"

:rolleyes:

Doesn't sound as cut and dry as you seem to think

AMD said:
AMD filed a patent for hybrid processors featuring heterogeneous general-purpose cores as far back as 2017, but the company does not seem to have plans to bring such CPUs to the market before operating systems for PCs can use them properly. Joe Macri, Vice President and Product Chief Technology Officer at AMD, sees how different types of cores could bring advantages to PCs, but not before OSes get an appropriate scheduler and memory allocator

"Over time I think there will be a point when we are going to need 'little,' and it will be a point in time when the OS has the right attributes, the right capabilities in its scheduler and memory allocator, we'll have the right memory subsystem," said Macri. 'We'll be able to give you not just a little bit better experience, but a much better experience
 
embargos are set to a single timezone, not multiple. its not a videogame releases where New Zealand and Australia get access to a new game 12 to 24 hours before you guys.
Review embargos lapse at the same point in time everywhere in the world.

I think the embargo ends in 15 hours because of this live stream

 
I feel your pain. I've been through countless options looking for any feasible solution and just ended up getting hold of a MSI MEG CORELIQUID S360 360mm AIO. It will have to do until I can get a proper CPU block. Fortunately I have another machine I can put it on after I'm finished with it but the wallet has taken a beating in the last 24 hours :p

Jeez I specifically bought an Elite 150i Capellix for this reason thinking Corsair would come up trumps instead I'm now stuck with a stupid board from Asus that won't accommodate my ND-H15 I have sitting here, Honestly couldn't have picked the worst 2 products for this launch, Disaster.
 
thank god i havent bought anything first of need a bracket for my kraken z73 then the motherboard cpu etc might even get a new case fancy the same case as i hyave but in red...
