As the owner of a 3900XT that's actually worse than an average 3900X (lesson learned with refreshes) I feel your pain. I bought this chip on XT release day for £520 and I'll be lucky to get £300. I'll probably end up keeping it and shipping out the 3600x instead to take less of a loss.

You're welcome, happy to have been of some help
Feel free to dm me or start a new thread (or both) if you get stuck on memory tweaking, I'm addicted to it...

I also want to say thanks... I've copy/pasted your last few posts into my notes to look back over when I get the new system up and running.

Might have to hold of jumping ship to AMD, because if the shared resources between CPU / GPU work perhaps Nvidia might come up with a solution or maybe Intel that allows their CPU/Mobo to do something similar with Nvidia. Maybe that'll mean jumping from AMD back to Intel. Unlikely but ya never know I guess.
Woah a local lad... Im over in Eastham. If it wasn't for lockdown...
I'm in Prenton, so only 15 minutes away
Why does PBO tank so badly? (I need to do some reading up!)
But in what time frame can they do this? Is it worth not buying for 12-18 months while they put something together? 2 years? 3?
People have a short memory... Nvidia already announced the same tech. Ampere announce (timestamped). Course you still have to be able to actually buy one...
Fair play. I remember the dude playing Crysis installed on his 3090 vram and Jensen saying direct streaming from SSD to GPU with the cpu able to decompress addressed GPU memory. Sounded the same to me but wrapped in leather jacket BS
Can't believe I watched some of that announce again to find the timestamp for Direct IO, he's so cheesy. Like a slimy door to door salesman.
Possibly but AMD control the hardware and the only alternative is intel.
No, Nvidia’s system could potentially access the SSD over the PCI-E bus, but it’s rather complicated and may not work. Lots of ducks require alignment.
What AMD have is a coherent system.

13% all core overclock just a few clicks.... 4.75Ghz that's impressive. its faster than a 10700K in R15.
Ive just been looking at that. It seems Intel at 6.2ghz = AMD at 4.9ghz. Core for core.
