When you speak in a public domain, you will be subject to criticism, such is life. Hertzian left because he got a slap on the hand for posting swastika's, not due to "negativity", then proceeded to break numerous rules on his way out, and is still welcome to post here but Im sure ego will prevent that from occurring.

What led me to overclocking originally was better performance in gaming. Though the one exception was the hd 4890, I was bummed when I couldn't maintain 1Ghz. Early days. It's also what had me turning up my nose when gtx 470 VS 570 was a hot topic. 470 was a dark horse back then. Yeah gaming is mostly why I picked up this chip. I've been keen on it since Broadwell, it's not universally better but as a turn key product it should fair well in single threaded titles. Last weekend I watched control basically max 1 core with maybe 10-15 percent spread amongst the rest When I originally bought my mobo and cpu it was with this planned upgrade. Not this chip but w/e the end game chip looked like for this socket. @Mr. Foxkind of derailed that with the bundle he sold me but I still held on to my original daily driver for this purpose. Tried going the b350 route originally but the sata ports were damaged, basically had to treat myself to x570 to drive back into Dallas and swap the board out. Guess it's time to get a list of games / benchmarks ready for this weekend.

Yeah it will mostly for some titles but the 16GB is kind of limiting for a daily driver and the Asus board really doesn't like the ram I originally bought (gskill 3200mhz, 32GB) for am4. I plan to make it my dedicated benching system so that if things aren't working out I don't have to retune, reinstall GPU's just to be able to game or chat with some buds. Some games don't like running on ddr4 4400mhz either, so it's better apt for benching than the turn key 5800x3d which is only intended for gaming, web surfing efc etc

Picked up the 5800x3D today since the price dropped to 270 on Amazon. I figure if I sell the 2700x for 50-60 the performance/dollar uplift comes close to when I bought the 2700x at iirc 160. I plan to review it against my 2700x and 10850k platform coupled with the 3090 mostly for gaming.

I recently picked up a P157SM-A also for somewhat the same vein. One, to test if the 4980hq would work (it didnt). Second, mostly so I can start rebuilding content for the forum, a lot of the NBR content is in the archive. Would love to see your adventures! The GTX 980(m) mod is always an entertaining read :)

Good to see you on the Forums! Hopefully you have some luck with getting a card

Welcome to the Forums!

Im pushing 450 just playing games and couldnt care less on my 3090. Still need to get the 5800X3D so I can put the platform you sold to me back to its intended purpose of benching. Been eyeing my 4870x2, gtx 295, 2x 5970's a bit more lately. Just havent had the time and working in 110F warehouse is pretty draining. 650Ti Boost has been coming down in price finally so I might snag a couple of those for benching this winter

Please provide a picture for your listing, thanks!

Welcome to the forums!

You heard? Guess these guys need to try harder it's practically plastered on the walls lol Can do :)

I got around that with hooking up another AX router closer to the ceiling, right beneath my room on the second floor. Since I rent I cant just go drilling holes and such. All that being said, im subbed 🙂

Let us know how it behaves under that configuration for a day or two 🙂

Cant say I can narrow down your issue but i'll just share some thoughts Are you using it with your laptops ac adapter or powering via usb port?

Welcome back to the forums! I take it you found the nbrchive as well? I know some people try to use way back machine with not much luck.

Even at a max watt of 50w?

@ryan Take your discussion of marketplace purchases to PM, this is not the place for it. Post edited to remove said content.

I wanted one like no one's business but I don't think they sold in the US? Another one I'm keen on finding is a 460 2win, used to have one when it released

Please have it completed within 24 hours of my post or I will need to close the thread. If completed all is well! Thanks!

People still want astronomical prices for it too Sadly

Replace that crap with a Zeon flag and im in. Though with how sensitive people are about iron cross like imagery, probably never happen.

No problem at all, its what the forums are for :)

Details details haha

Thumbnails like that make me giggle a bit, 200FPS? cool. No need to upgrade if im just playing games lol
