Now everything is setup and stable, I'm just starting to have a look at tweaks. What's the difference between expo 1 and 2 in the bios for ram?

Probably the same as Intel, XMP 2 had slightly better timings. Nowhere near as good as if you tuned it yourself of course. It’s not always stable though so you would need to stress test.

Yea for sure; power draw is a little bit high but other than that both price and performance is top notch it's the best value on that list.

The only reason I personally wouldn't go with it and chose amd instead is because it's on a dead platform, Intel would have had my money if z790 was going to support the next couple CPU generations as well

While gamers mostly don't care, for their (formerly) super lucrative server market, perf/watt is or should be king.

Intel are lucky that so many server buyers are going by the mantra of "nobody ever got fired for buying IBM Intel" but that can only last so long.

The really big cloud customers (Amazon, Google, Alibaba) are deploying more and more custom ARM chips only using x86 were they have no choice. A perfect nightmare for Intel and yet Intel won't scrap shareholders dividends!

They cut those Dividends by two thirds and despite Intel's Server Marketshare AMD and making more money from it than Intel.

Intel are not in a good place.
 
Intel hoping it can hold on until it catches up with tsmc

Intel puts TSMC on notice with step towards Angstrom era chips

Intel 20A and 18A nodes finalised, chips due early next year.
www.pcgamer.com www.pcgamer.com

Intel claims it's just finished development on its new 20A 2nm process node and will build the first chips on this node next year. If it comes true, Intel will be ahead of TSMC by 2 years as TSMC itself says it will make its first 2nm chips only in 2026.

Intel is also looking to pickup business by doing fab work for other customers; it claims it currently has 40 customers asking Intel to fabricate chips for them - one of those customers is Nvidia, Jensen has just announced that Nvidia will use Intel to make its future GPUs https://wccftech.com/nvidia-will-use-intels-arizona-fabs-to-make-gpus-says-ceo/

LOL.. thought I'd cave in and try Ryzen Master and:

Seems others with Asus B650E motherboards have this issue.. I guess you have to justify the £250 for the X670E-E over the B650E-E somehow.. (I'm actually sure that's not intentional, the BIOS is identical to the X670E in terms of overclocking!)

Is Ryzen Master really as bad as people say? I’ll soon find out.

I have a X670E and get the same message.

It ran fine when I first built my PC and I have a Asus B650E-E.

I think Intel will need every advantage they can muster. The trick will be finding enough fab work to maintain production at around 95% capacity.
 
I'm having an issue with Witcher 3 and frame gen. The game is stuttering a lot compared to my 5950x. I turned windows power plan from balanced to power saver which seems to have made it comparable to the 5950x and got rid of most the in game stutter. I will play with disabling ccd's tomorrow. Hopefully just the game, as others reported stutter fests with 5950x whilst mine was ok.
