In a related story, AMD has been stating the obvious for what they say is "years." Jensen Huang commented, but only little was understood of what was rambled on about. "She got me." Huang said as he wore his footy pajamas and curled up in the corner. "That mother fucker Su boomed me." Huang...

I have nothing to add to this discussion because you covered it all. I 100% agree.

HOLY SHIT this is getting out of hand. We aren't arguing gaming performance or daily use or what you should use or anything else. No, Ryzen does not suck at gaming, but it's not as good as Intel. Do you know WHY? Because the IPC is not the same, clock for clock. Intel is faster, at somewhere...

Are we still arguing this? Please read here: https://hardforum.com/threads/ryzen-3000-processors-listed-on-russian-retail-site.1974736/page-3#post-1044014719

I hope to hell that it's true. It won't be the first time AMD/ATI targeted the entry and mid level graphics market hard and lowered the price just to embarrass Nvidia. So I'm hoping for it.

Yeah, I'm with you on this one. If they get within 5% of intels per core IPC it will be a huge win for AMD, and I think they'll be there this time around. Beating Coffee Lake though? Yeah, not gonna happen.

lol, adored was right all along. Suck it haters. These things are gonna be amazing.

So I have this really cool Thermaltake Core P3 case that's all open air and stuff, which is screaming to have a hard tube custom loop. I have a Corsair H100i that just isn't doing it justice. This kit looks great, has everything you could possibly need to build a custom loop. So basically, my...

It is nice they are catching the vulnerabilities before they are made public though. Sure, I'm going to take my chances too, but the fact that we haven't seen these in the wild BEFORE they became known problems is a good thing.

See, I'm not reading that from here. There is no mention of rules or regulations set on private companies. I guess if said cable companies are making exclusivity contracts with the state, then sure. Even if that were the case, there's still the problem that the only thing being protected here...

Not entirely sure where you got any of that. Section 1: A state government can't regulate a local government (city, parish, indian tribe etc) from providing telecommunication services to it's locality. This is fine, I guess. In practice does it matter? How many local governments are...

I fully encourage you guys to look into some of this crap. It's highly entertaining. Absolutely stupid, but also entertaining. Let me try and address a few things I've picked up from these nutjobs..... Imagine a flat disc, with a pole in the center rising from it. Attach a string to the...

So according to forbes, you can get a 4c/4t i3 for 167, which puts it right smack into r5 1400 territory, 6c/6t i5 will cost you 257 which is r5 1600 territory, and 6c/12t i7 for 359 which is exactly what r7 1700 is priced at. I really hope for that the per core performance is up so much that...

V30 will be the first, as has been said already in this thread. Personally waiting on the G7, as it will also support the frequency. Kind sad to see the S8 didn't support it, as previous rumors said it would.

Oh ffs. Well played, well played.

Has anyone tested a 580 with a Ryzen? I'm seeing a bunch of reviews today but all of them with Intel cpus. I'm not implying that it will make a difference, but hey, you never know right?

Yeah, was just reading the same thing. Not really surprising to be honest, it's essentially the same silicon. I'm not sure I would do it, as the 580 is the "optimized" version of the chip so it should theoretically handle the heat load better, but hey if it works and you can get the...

Yeah, I feel like I'm in the same boat here. Feel like they missed a chance with the Ryzen release, the 480 and 580 are great and all but the 580 would have to be significantly cheaper than the 1060, by say 50 to 70 bucks, to be significant to me. Just think of the hype of a r5 and 580 rig...

Read article, notice Netflix banner ad on the right. I love the internet.

This kind of crap is the exact reason why I am seriously considering jumping ship, even after being a loyal att customer for around 14 years.

That is possibly the coolest thing I've seen in a month. WANT.

Reminds me of the whole "Anonymouse iz gunna hack r powa!" bs the NSA was spouting off about. Crazy, indeed.

Not surprised in the slightest. I would be on the internet more often if it was neck deep in snow outside too. OH and, holy hell I remembered this account.....

Well, I install home theater systems for a living, and I gave up on the notion of computers being low powered LONG ago. For example, your typical 60" plasma television, with home theater a/v reciever delivering 140w x7 channels, 600w sub, with dvd player, cable/sattelite reciever and whatever...

I dont see what the big deal is with power. We are building computers already with 2 to 4 cpu cores, 2 video cards sometimes with 4 gpu cores, dual channel ram setups, 2 or more hard drives, why not 2 or more psu's? Honestly, I wouldnt care if I had to get a case that supported 2 psu's to have...

If you cant find a review on a good power supply, then you either havent tried or havent read this thread. Now that the [H] is doing power supplies, it will be interesting to see what psu's can withstand the torture test they put them through, but I can pretty much say with full certainty that...

So its a good 800 watts, assuming 80% effeciency that must mean it was pulling right around 1000 watts from the wall. Maybe THATS what they meant by a 1kw psu... Anyhow, wonderful review guys, defenitely a little long and drawn out on some things but hey, its more in depth than say a jonny...

Heh, you know my pain. I do custom home theater installations, and know ALL ABOUT insulation, face first in a foot and a half of blown fiberglass is enough to make anyone in my field rethink our career choices. Anyhow, wonderful job on the speaker wiring. I would suggest however changing out...

I guess it's a small step in becoming more like intel. At least now they MIGHT be able to do some manufacturing of their own on some good chipsets. Think about it, the only reason Intel has the most graphics card market share is because they manufacture good, fully integrated chipsets. AMD...

Honestly I'd go with the biostar just for the nf3 chipset.

A64 / Biostar combo $99 HIS x1600pro 256 (open box) $89 1gb AMPO pc3200 $71 WD 40gb sata150 $42 Lite-On DVD-ROM $17 Arctiv Cooling fan / hs $10 Antec Solution w/ 380w psu $75 Not a bad little system for...

For reals, Ultra PSU's are some of jonny's favorites, for a guy that tests dozens of these things that cant be a bad thing.....

I hope and pray for the day that we become cpu bottlenecked. Graphics solutions have NEVER been up to par with cpu performance. Of course, you can bottleneck your gpu but you could never do it with current cpu tech. As it stands, most people will NEVER be at the point that they need more cpu...

Now I'm a bit confused. If the [H] has the cpu's on hand and are testing them based on how we all play games, then how are they withholding the facts that they have? Now granted, they DIDNT test with SLI or Crossfire, or even a 7950gtx, but they did state the fact that those solutions would...

Sorry, but I remember reading the [H] way before there was a forum here. Dont get me wrong, hardforums is nice but the [H] was the chicken before the egg.

How am I making conclusions for them if I explain to them what to expect, let them see the difference for themselves, and then reaffirm with them what they have just seen? Just because I know what's going to happen doesn't mean that they wont be able to see it for themselves, and if they can...

You know, I never thought of it this way until I've started to see all these web sites chime in with opinions about real world testing, but let me explain my recent epiphany. I sell televisions. Every day I see thousands of numbers, like this tv has 3000:1 contrast ratio, and this tv has a...

I've recently become attached to the Ultra X2 Xconnect and Hiper Type R series of power supplies. Both are very solid units and offer lots of bling, plus the cabling on both are UV reactive and like nothing anyone else has. EDIT: oh yeah, if your going for looks MODULAR PSU FTW

Intel motherboards have always been expensive, all the more reason am2 looks really good right now, even if Conroe kills it in every single category. I remember buying a k6-2 and a via motherboard for the same reason years ago, and then again with an athlon and a via chipset board for the same...

As soon as I see some Tforce style motherboards, and I mean moderately priced boards with ALOT of overclocking ability, I'm gonna be all over conroe like white on rice. I really like this 65nm stuff.
