AMD Zen 2 (Ryzen 3000) - *** NO COMPETITOR HINTING ***

[DragonQ]

I'm tempted by one of 4 options currently, 3800x with crosshair, 3600x with crosshair and go 8 core on refresh, 3800x and aorus ultra or 3600x and aorus ultra going 8 core on refresh. Can't see anything worth playing near maxing fast 6/12 for now.

Which Crosshair? The VII Hero, VIII Hero, or VIII Formula? Which Aorus Ultra? X470 or X570?

As you say, "gotten" used to be traditional in British English, and now it isn't. But that doesn't mean that it isn't accepted. There's nothing wrong with speaking properly.

People hate speaking properly. For instance - hes instead of the correct his, it's instead of the correct its, its instead of the correct it's ( or it is), etc.

Gotten is not only the original and traditional form but is also the more natural for a past participle form of a verb in English language.
I prefer to use gotten because it's easier, too.

Are you American?

You use “gotten”. Are you American?

I hate the way American language creeps into English speakers usage if it is less elegant.

Gotten...what’s wrong with got or become? We stopped using gotten years ago.
Off of...what’s the point of combining two words where one could do fine. What’s wrong with from?
Costed...this is the worst and even winds me up when used on American forums.

There’s loads.

Movie instead of film is fine and so to a point is show instead of programme.

I understand language changes but I feel better writing this.

I hate the way people on the internet need to make themselves feel better,by trying to pick up on insignificant rubbish.

Cringe

Use a full stop.

And make landings faster than necessary.

Technically this is not incorrect,but it is not convention anymore to start a sentence with "And".

I have the flight sim software to calculate all this if anyone really wants to know the exact extra fuel for a certain type of aircraft and the dep/arr/alt airport based on the current weather,

Ending the sentence with a comma. Also some punctuation wouldn't go amiss.

I abstained this gen after looking forward to upgrading.

I don’t regret it.

Fail

It is "generation" since you like to be neurotic about terminology. Again you are missing a full stop or exclamation mark.

1080p shouldn't look horrible anyway as 4K is just 4x1080p screens and therefore doesn't need scaling.

Yes, 4K TVs all upscale but it's not always going to look nice

1440p looks good on my TV but just slightly softer than 4K.

There is a missing full stop in your second sentence,and the last sentence should be "1440p looks good on my TV but is just slightly softer than 4K."

How about you Google how to spell?

It is surprising you like to use the verb "Google". It originated as a verb in the United States in 1998,it was first used on American television and was added to our vocabulary at a later date.

How please, disk management is only showing a normal partition structure.

Thanks.

How please? Disk management is only showing a normal partition structure.Thanks.


I can also play at being neurotic too!

The delicious irony of moaning about my standard of writing,yet several of your own sentences are missing words and punctuation. Worry about yourself.

Right!

I can't be bothered to think. < I probably spelt half of that wrong. Spelled ?

MSI MEG X570 GODLIKE (Socket AM4/X570/DDR4/S-ATA 600/ATX) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07ST23K9B/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_Ml3fDbP3VPG3D

Omg.

I'm assuming that as these are so expensive... And OcUk don't technical have them for ordering yet... I can post this?

How much?!?

It is supposed to be 777 euros from what I've read. I'd like to see how they managed to do that conversion.

 

[Drollic]

Which Crosshair? The VII Hero, VIII Hero, or VIII Formula? Which Aorus Ultra? X470 or X570?

8 Hero WiFi X570 or X570 Aorus Ultra. Thinking the Ultra will be around £50 cheaper.

I 100% agree with your thinking here. That's why, at the moment i intend to keep my CH6. Watch the reviews come in and then grab a 3950x in September if it clocks well in a CH6. I certainly wouldn't shell out for a new mobo when AM4 is going to be EOL in 12 months. The 3950x itself isn't an issue for me because i have already gone through a 1700 and am still on a 2700x. What i wouldn't do now though is buy a brand new X570 that will be EOL next year. X470 new, or second hand and a 3950x would be my route if i didn't already have an x370.

You saying AM5 will support 3950X?

 

[DylRicho]

You saying AM5 will support 3950X?

There is no concrete evidence to suggest it will (or won't), however we can speculate and base the information on previous products.

If Zen 4 debuts a CPU with both DDR4 and DDR5 memory controllers, the compatibility table may look something like this:

+========+===========+======================+=================+
| Socket | Processor | Memory Controller(s) |  Compatibility  |
+========+===========+======================+=================+
| AM4    | AM4       | DDR4                 | Yes             |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM4    | AM5       | DDR4 / DDR5          | Yes (DDR4 only) |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM4    | AM5       | DDR5                 | No              |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM5    | AM4       | DDR4 / DDR5          | Possible        |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM5    | AM4       | DDR5                 | No              |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM5    | AM5       | DDR4 / DDR5          | Yes             |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+
| AM5    | AM5       | DDR5                 | Yes             |
+--------+-----------+----------------------+-----------------+

Sorry, running low on news...

Look at post 15147.He misses punctuation frequently,and does not even spell check is own sentences. Funny how he is more worried about correcting other people and not improving his own writing on this forum.

Edit!!

He is so desperate now he get his buddy to join in too.

 

[Troezar]

@orbitalwalsh any idea on the price of the Aorus Master?

I also love how you and your buddy McGraw,are trying to correct people on usage of words,yet both of you frequently make mistakes yourselves.

McGraw enters this thread trying to comment on how he is better at English than anyone else,and his little helper has to back him up.

 

[Stephanie Peterson]

Grr this crap annoys the hell out of me.
This is a technical forum, talking about technology not some flipping English exam. I would much rather see posters put up factual information relevant to the discussion at hand than have there bldy full stops and commas in the right place.

That is the problem with McGraw and ChrisD - McGraw started moaning at me several times, since he didn't like me using an old form of a word IN ONE POST and I got fed up. When I pointed out to him,that he makes several mistakes himself,including using Americanisms himself,his buddy has to deflect for him.

McGraw has done this before in another thread and used an Americanism himself. The irony!

Look at this bloke:

Are you American?

You use “gotten”. Are you American?

I understand language changes but I feel better writing this.

Yet he and is buddy make frequent mistakes and to bury those,he picks up on single words. He uses the Americanism "Google".

Who?

You quoted me from a post,where I answered him,so stop pretending. He started trying to troll me for two to three posts since he didn't like me using one word in a post,and you push in trying to help him out.

Next time,don't try and comment on my usage of English if both of you make your own mistakes.

New AMD CPUs are likely to be decent, and almost certainly offer more bang per buck than Intel CPUs.

Bring it.

The Ryzen 5 3600 results(and by extension those of the Ryzen 5 3600X) look very promising indeed. They equate quite closely to a Core i7 8700/8700K and appear to be a solid improvement over my Ryzen 5 2600.

I do hope the doubling of L3 cache helps in some of the more latency intensive games though. If there are nice improvements in those subset of games,that would erode one of the traditional holdouts for Intel CPUs.
