    AM4 Reaganomics: Retire 1700x, Swap in old 3700X, Purchase a new 5700X3D

    Possible better drivers, operating system process scheduling, video card, Ram to improve micro stutter? For about $50 more I still think the 5900x is a better choice for future proofing best overall system performance. Of course if just gaming is the main goal of the system then 5700x3d looks...

    RDNA 5 speculation

    Forget FPS benchmarks.... with such raw processing claims just bench the raw data processing to see what is actually going on with the processing performance. Resistance increases TDP and electrical energy costs but doesn't necessarily improve real time human user performance. I'm ok with...

    [Dead]DeepCool LS720 SE 360mm AIO - $83

    The 240mm is also a good choice for this application. Also the IDCooling will be quieter due to lower RPM.

    [Dead]DeepCool LS720 SE 360mm AIO - $83

    No experience with it but seems like a great deal on a an affordable simple AIO water cooling solution. The smaller 240mm(less cost) unit is probably enough for most single CPU cooling.

    AM4 Reaganomics: Retire 1700x, Swap in old 3700X, Purchase a new 5700X3D

    If you can swing it.... the 5900x is noicely priced at Microcenter. Looks like a much better processor for overall processing power for AM4.

    Thermal pads replacing?

    Temperature getting hotter? I'd replace if temps are unacceptable for your particular piece of hardware/processor.

    Thank you. I'm very satisfied with how it all came together and how it works. The AMD APU technology is in a great place right now and looks like it will be getting some great advances in the next couple of years. This case with the radiator works out very well for this 5700g APU build...

    Be careful with AMD direct guys and gals

    Did you order a CPU direct from them? Which CPU? Did you get though to the their warranty department and if so did you get some help? What is the status? What part of the world do you live in? I hope they help out. Good luck.

    WATT 5600x rides the lightning

    The SS 1200XP was one PCI express cable short for the 6 pin connector on one of the MSI 290x lightnings. I ended up using a PCI express 6 pin connector from the Seasonic XP660. I don't see why Seasonic would risk destroying customers video cards by mixing these particular PCI-E cables for the...

    PSU is Seasonic Platinum 860W. The case can accommodate 2 power supplies. I may have to add another power supply dedicated for one of the MSI 290x Lightning. I have a lower rated SS660W Platinum available. I've seen some cable adapters available to run more than 2 power supplies. I've...

    Are NVMe PCI-E 3.0 x4 and NVMe PCI-E 4.0 x4 the same physical size?

    Feeling lazy to do google search but I think they have the same overall footprint but physically the 4.0x4 has greater physical electrical conductor size or contacts. It must be designed to physically elctrically conduct better and this is why to get best conduction you have to have a...

    I still would prefer to have my main processing progams on the two nvme faster drives and use the Sata ssd for reliable data back up. This notebook is being used as a portable work station and for video/audio/music fun. It's a nice powerful budget notebook but i wish the low level motherboard...

    Thanks. Very informative. I have abandoned ship on my RAID 0 efforts because my motherboard doesn't support low level RAID 0 via BIOS control. I'm going to install Windows 10 64 bit in the P31 0 NVME slot and the other P31 in the 1 NVME slot for programs and S31 in the SATA for back up non...

    The fans on my notebook were observed to be running at very low speed. I didn't have the custom fan control application running at the time of testing but I'm not sure if the notebook's fan controller software operates off of the NVME temperature feed back sensor. Which benchmark did you use...

    SK Hynix Gold 2xP31 RAID 0 1TB + S31 1TB Mobile Notebook Ryzen 5 4600h

    The stock NVME drive used thermal pad and made contact with the heat sink. If I would have left the paper sticker on the P31 NVME without thermal pad it would not make contact with the heatsink. These P31 drives do get hot. Highest temp I've seen is 68C when copying 256GB partion to the RAID...

    Gaming PC... designed around storage??

    I'm not sure I've never done it but apparently it's possible with the card. I would use that card for RAID 0 on all 4 slots. The use other storage drive connections on a motherboard using designed interface not part of the RAID 0.

    Gaming PC... designed around storage??

    For a gaming rig or flat out supreme work station storage speed is going to become a bottleneck in processing speed if it is lagging a process. AMD has powerful multicore processing for game loads or any process load. Fast memory controller, HIGH bandwidth PCI express lanes. For gaming...
