    Will Alder Lake be the end of the AMD period of success?

    With AMD using the same socket for many generation of CPU's it is easier simply to plug in a new CPU if needed, than exchange the entire system.

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    I've been wondering how DLSS 2.0 looks on this display, I only have a 1070, so I can't test it myself. As far as I understand it is more likely to be a bit blurry at 1440p resolutions than at 4K.

    The RTX 3080 benchmark results you've been waiting for

    After I bought my G9 Odyssey monitor, I've been contemplating an upgrade as well, possibly a 3080 to replace my 1070, and running it on my 5820K, and as the resolution is close to 4K I doubt I will be severly CPU limited, although the minimums could take a dip.

    Samsung Odyssey 1440p VA monitors 240hz curved

    Very happy with the monitor, currently only running 120hz 8-bit on my GTX 1070, as it doesn't support DSC. I will probably get a RTX 3080 or 6800XT in the new year depending if AMD will fix their drivers for the monitor. I have the latest drivers and firmware (1008.1) and do see flickering with...

    Are you upgrading your quad core in 2020?

    Nope, waiting for 2022 for upgrades as I only have time for computing ~2h a week, and I mainly play older games. Also my 5820k runs fine, and I'm very happy I bought a 5820K instead of a 4790k.

    So buy Ampere or wait for AMD response?

    The X35, Asus PG35VQ and the AG353UCG has all the features wanted, 200hz, 1440p UW, HDR1000, but the price though.... Hopefully they will launch new monitors that supports hdmi 2.1 or dp2.0 so 200Hz 4:4:4 10-bit will be possible. Maybe in 2022.....

    Are More Expensive Motherboards Better Motherboards? - [H]

    The extra cost is more about extra features and better pwm. So if you don't plan on o/c or need the extra features don't waste money on a more expensive board. Since most in here do some o/c and wants better features, then they buy more expensive boards in the middle group, a few do extreme o/c...

    So where will ssds move from NVME?

    Optane Dimm is already happening. For the average consumer Optane need some competition to drive prices down. Also the the limits of pcie3 x4 is only at sequential or very high qd. It is by no means the limiting factor at low qd and random r/w.
