    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Performance, Overclocking and Cooling Thread

    HD2 is a crapshoot with the patches to be honest. Running smoothly for now, but can go nuts.

    Am jelly. Still can't get mine to 6200 1:1. Memory controller is a dud. "shakes fist at sky"

    I mean, sure, Amazon, cheers?

    The extra identical units are considered unordered and unsolicited, even if they are of the same order. or so I've been told by the relevant professionals. It was described to me in simplistic terms, like getting an extra nugget in a food order. They could ask for it back, but won't out of the...

    I mean, sure, Amazon, cheers?

    Out of curiosity, I brought this up to a good friend who happens to be a lawyer. The extras are Amazon's goof, considered unordered/unsolicited and by FTC regs, a gift. Even though I received extras of the same ordered item, the extras are not part of that solicited order, they are as...

    5900x vs 9950x3d my impressions

    I went from a 5900x to a 9950x3D and use a 4090. At 4k120, I was using about 90-95% of the GPU depending on the game (with occasional hitching). Now the GPU is speedily fed and regularly getting close to 100% usage. The 5900x was good, it just that Zen 5 is better, as is should be. As soon...

    Ain’t that the truth lol

    By law, it is not. That's why there is already established case law about it. If it was against the law, I would send it back....but Amazon knows this isn't and that is why they don't bother to pursue anyone about it. Simple. And as for addressing self-respect, I doubt a multi-billion...

    That’s why I’m hoping it was robot picked. No way to find out though….

    I'll take this as collateral for all the ads you inject everywhere. 10 for 1, not even a prime day deal. If this was fulfilled by a human, I hope they don't get shit for it. "AI" robot pickers FTW?

    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Performance, Overclocking and Cooling Thread

    Just out curiosity, anyone test Helldivers 2 temps? Seems to be a heavy on my CPU. I'm getting 71-75c on a NHD15 in ambient 23c. A know, I narrow case as a reference. Cheers.

    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Performance, Overclocking and Cooling Thread

    I'm not talking about new CPU's within a generation. I'm talking from generation to a new generation. You're right, AM4 is still great and getting CPU's, but not beyond Zen 3 and not massive upgrades beyond mild x3d parts. Zen 6 will be the third gen on AM5. I hope it extends to Zen 7 and...

    AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D Performance, Overclocking and Cooling Thread

    I'm not at all impressed with Intel. Raptor Lake performance regressions from longevity fixes because, you know, they'll die otherwise. EOL socket platform. Arrow Lake limited CPU platform upgrade path. AM5 will have at least Zen 6 as the last upgrade, and maybe a new memory controller...so...

    Thinking about a few things for my upcoming 9950X3D… motherboard and AIO question

    I'd consider some of the arctic cooling AIO's. Cheap as chips with a thicker radiator. If you want anything with an LCD, you will have to deal with crappy software tho. If you can swing it, I'd consider the HYTE Thicc Q60 - it has a screen and is a even more thicker radiator than standard...
