    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    Fair enough, appreciate the thoughts. I'm gonna go 3800x since the 3900x isn't much of an improvement in gaming and I feel the resell value won't justify the 130.00 price increase. Then there's the option of the 4000 series.. whereas with intel it's just what i get and that's it. I didn't...

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    Oh I know, I'm using it right now on the 8600k. But it's just a bit more beneficial on AMD. But I'm curious if you were me which route do you go? 10900k or 3800x->4800/4900x (Just saw the new Samsung Pro PCIE4 drives come out the 21st,rip wallet, which sways me to AMD even more)

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    Appreciate the thought. But I'm not going to pay money to not upgrade and she does game. I'm getting a new GPU this year whether it's the 2080ti, 3080ti, 2080ti super or Big Navi whichever is available and helps me get closer to 165 FPS min at 1440p and doesn't cost more than 1800.00 counting a...

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    From what I've seen of the leaks it's 23-30% in multi threaded applications over the 9900k which is exactly as you said the increase in cores and clock speed. It's about 4% in single threaded apps over the 9900k which is in line with the clock increase. As for the 7% IPC comment I was more...

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    No offense but this isn't really relevant to my issue. It smells like fanboy, because history has shown 7% IPC gains per cpu cycle is pretty reasonable expectations in both camps as are 100-300 mhz clock increases. Latency is something that is intentionally being addressed as stated by AMD and...

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    Oh, I'm well aware I do plan on a gpu upgrade but I figure we should know something by April about the 3080ti, 2080ti super or Big Navi. Any of which I'll hold on to for the next 2 years following the purchase or so unless there's a massive leap in performance. The fact that the 2080ti isn't...

    I'm looking for thoughts on a build dilemma.

    First I must upgrade in the very near future as my GF wants a new PC so she'll be getting my old one -1080ti. (It's a 8600k at 5ghz). Secondly I'm buying all new parts which aren't really relevant with an 1000w psu (it will be seasonic, corsair or bequiet depending on sales). It will be custom...

    Monitor black screens when selecting 120/144hz but runs 240hz fine

    I did. For some reason it was because I had the on board graphics enabled, yet not connected. Not sure how that interaction works... but it is what it is.

    Monitor black screens when selecting 120/144hz but runs 240hz fine

    I have Windows 10 1080 Ti Acer Predator XB272 (27" 240hz tn) Connecting through displayport. When trying to select 120/144hz the screen dims quickly then black screens. However I can run it at any other refresh rate (60/100/200/240) I've turned overdrive on the monitor on, off, extreme tried...
