I have 16GB of Flare X ram, 14,14,14,34. How does that look with a 5800X3D? I've had these for years, since I had the 1st gen Ryzen.

I returned the 6800XT and got a 6900XT. It was on a crazy sale on Newegg. That's my card for a couple years. Thinking of upgrading to a 4K 144hz monitor.

I bought the G.Skill flaire X series (3200mhz 14-14-14-34) a few years ago for my Ryzen 1700. Now, I have a 5800X3D and I am still using that same ram. Is there better ram than the flair? The timing is super tight and I read that 3200 is the way to go with the Ryzen. I want the best since I have...

Does the power draw look weird?

Never did that before. I have no idea who made this card, it looks like a reference AMD card, but who knows? Checked and the bios version according to GPU-Z is a standard bios. Also the sticker on the GPU is all beat up, can't tell which manufacturer it is. I just checked the ebay posting and I...

Bought a used RX580. It seems to work, windows is up and running. Can't seem to get any drivers I install to work. I installed the regular adrenaline drivers then I did the auto detect and it installed enterprise drivers. 3DMark says no compatible benchmarks found. The AMD software won't load...

No, it ran fine on the older bios, just wouldn't go over 3.4Ghz. Once I flashed it, worked perfectly. Just had to reset the pin on Windows.

Yeah, I'm an idiot. There was a bios update for Vermeer I never installed because I was using the 3900x. That solved it.

Just replace my 3900x with a 5800X3D. For some reason its not going over 3400Ghz, don't think its boosting. I know that is slow, the 3900x was around 4.4Ghz boosted. What setting did I miss. The ram is at 3200Ghz and running fine. No idea what to do. Thanks.

Well, I got the 6800XT. Huge difference! Userbenchmark: 3900x RTX2070: Gaming 116% Deskop 99% Workstation 132% RX6800XT Gaming 152% Desktop 99% Workstation 175% Timespy: RTX2070 Graphics score 9146 CPU Score 11692...

Thanks. I can always get the 5800X3D if I feel limited.

I just ordered the RX6800XT for $669 on Amazon. Should last me a two to three years. Got my RTX2070 in Feburary of 2019 and it served me well. Hope this does as well.

I see videos on Youtube comparing the 3070 to the 6700, but I thought the 6800 was the direct comparison. I feel hesitant to get the 3070 because it only has 8GB or ram, which will affect its long-term viability. I thought the 6800 was a 1440p card, but I see people saying the 6700 is. I...

I think I am going to wait for the new Ryzen 4 to come out and pair it to a 4080.

Play Mostly Planetside 2, Star Wars Battlefront II, Halo, trying to get into Cyperpunk 2077. Looking forward to Diablo 4. Witcher, etc.
