    x370 vs. b350 overclocking

    I really want to get an asrock itx am4. The specs look very close, but I was wondering if the x370 has an edge compared to th3 b350 when overclocking such as more bios options. Just wondering if the x370 version is at all worth the premium in price.

    Ryzen Pro - The AMD workstation CPU

    Ok, maybe not very exciting but still intersting: https://www.techpowerup.com/234750/amd-announces-ryzen-pro-desktop-processors?cp=2#comments So it looks to be basically Ryzen with a few security features. Will it support ECC? Will it have higher binned chips akin to XEON in the past? If...

    C-236 more 'future-proof' than z-170/z-270?

    Arctic Accelero IV 280(X) review

    So I recently purchased a referance HD 7970 for $100 on ebay to do some DC. The card worked great, but even at 925 MHz core, the gpu got up to 85*C at 50% fan. Using 60% fan, the card stayed sub-80*C, but it was SCREAMING. I knew my wife wouldn't tolerate it so I had to do something...

    New user looking to join a team

    I didn't see an intro thread, so I figured I would use a new thread to introduce myself :) My plan was to return to folding after a 4 years with used hd 7970 or recently ordered, but after reading through the forums, I realized that PG is not worth supporting. Anyhow, I plan on using...
