X299 successor/refresh.

yes. At 4.5Ghz it is pulling ~650w when load that is with a GT610 graphics card. Even if the chip could do 5Ghz relatively reliable, you would also need a super PSU, a minimum 480 rad push and pull watercooling setup, deliding, and a motherboard manufacturer that accepts RMA on burnt VRM every few months :D
7980xe seems to do daily fine at 4.5Ghz
 
All will do higher with better cooling and more volts but you will cry about Temps. Ln2 5.8ghz + easy.

Thanks for that, think I'll order a binned 7900x on payday and get the system built on low clocks until I get the loop sorted, that would be the logical way I think. Any idea how long until you get another 4.9 bin?
Anyone got any experience of the temp delta between a 360mm aio and a full loop with effectively 7x 120mm rad space but with GPU included?
Josh.
 
You simply want as much surface area as possible but just adding radiators won't have any effect after a point. Maybe look at a dual 200mm rad with 4 fans as that will have plenty of capacity for heat exchange. Then you look pumps to match.

My plan was to go with a binned 7980XE and use phase change to cool it.
 
Form what you've said you'll be doing on the system, any of the new high core count chips even at stock speeds will more than suit your needs for 3 years plus.

Phase change, people still use that?

I remember it was popular 15 years ago or so . . .
 
Check OcUK pricing on 7640X, 7740X and 7800X OEM, lowest prices in UK and lots of memory deals. See the Black Friday section. :)

I had noticed the 7800X but bloody hell those Kaby Lake X chips are cheap.
If only the boards were also they'd sell well at those prices which is obviously the problem along with Ryzen and oh yeah Coffee Lake.
No wonder they aren't selling.

jigger = AMD is better regardless of facts.remember every post in here showing this.

why would you wait for ryzen 2 ? still will be slower than x299 chips lol.

Something something.i can't understand things, this guy hurt my feelz say AMD not crap.sonot.understandingz

Regard DG.

;)
 
nah just noticed that every cpu post regardless of benchmarks shown amd is better.when its totally opposite.x299 will be and is faster in every way and will be than ryzen 2.

Nah, you're just but hurt. Probably becuase I dragged you over coals for balls spoken.

Seems 12nm Ryzen+ should be,

10-15% faster
10-15% cheaper
10-15% less power

Who knows what 7nm Ryzen 2 will offer.
