    Having a tough time choosing between a 3950X or 3960X.

    I'm planning on using an AORUS M.2 2TB PCI-E 4x RAID. High IOps application. Saturation is the point.

    Having a tough time choosing between a 3950X or 3960X.

    So assuming I'm keeping a 1080ti until the nVidia 3000 series is released, if I go with the 3950x would I be PCI-E lane limited to just one of the AORUS NVMe Gen4 SSD's? If so, that alone pushes me into needing the upgrade to the 3960x, although I dislike that all the boards have fans on the...

    Workload today does not accurately reflect workload tomorrow because I would be consolidating what is currently done on two systems (primarily because the i7-6050x is not capable of the adequate performance by itself). Call it 50GB RAM swap at any given time and at least 8/10 cores @ 50%+...

    Need, no. Want, yes. The bandwidth increase from quad channel is very appealing for gaming and other RAM-intensive workloads. This is the frustrating part. The short answer is not necessarily if I'm just running one video card. The long answer is if I want to RAID50 the AORUS NVMe with PCI-E...

    Existing system is a few years old Intel flagship (i7-6950x) that has been nothing but disappointing since day one, and I'd like to modernize with a PCI-E 4.0 NVMe. Configuration: 3 monitors (34" curved 2k @ 140hz, two 29" 2k @140hz) 1080 Ti i7-6950x 64 GB 3200 G.Skil 1TB EVO Pro Various...
