First post in a while ... I used Conductonaut on my wife's PC and my rig (before I swapped the mobo out for a B450 board), and it was quite good. However, I'm only able to buy it maybe once a year because of the cost of a small tube of it (which is good for about 3 repastes). I may look at...

I upgraded from a AM3+ motherboard to a B350 one in January, and I can definitely tell the difference in the motherboard quality. My second AM3+ board was a Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 (after breaking a Sapphire AM3+ Mobo my wife won at the last [H]ard|OCP/AMD event in Dallas), and along with a FX-8150...

my board got another BIOS update, which is okay but now I can't get past 3.6ghz right now without finetoothing the OC, or grabbing a beefier aftermarket HSF or a AIO (which I've been meaning to do). Last BIOS I was running I had a rocksolid OC @ 3.8ghz with the Wraith Spire.

what's the AGESA version that enables the second gen Ryzen CPUs? Is it 1.0.0.7??

Before you say bad board; do you have a PCI-E ethernet card to test with? Different ethernet cable maybe?

may be messaging you soon for a Office key as soon as this coming week.

I originally had way too much voltage through the processor and saw temps of close to 90C via Corsair Link when doing encoding with Handbrake. I adjusted the voltage real quick and knocked it down quite a bit and am getting 60C-65C now maxed under CPU-intensive loads.

Got my Ryzen parts in yesterday, and I updated to the newest bios for my TUF B350M Gaming. Memory autodetected at 2933 without issue; and I'm really happy. Now I gotta find a decent AIO to pull the temps down a bit since I'm using a stock fan ...

I'm curious to know if anyone is running a B350 Gaming Pro Carbon with a Ryzen chip. Also about BIOS issues and all that jazz.

I'm very tempted to know what the bug is regarding nVidia drivers on AM4. As a 1070 owner, I'm really interested in these details and what they are because it may impair my jump to the platform.

Thanks for reviewing the R5 1600 Kyle, I'm now looking at upgrading out of the AMD FX series thanks to how cheap these chips are. Hopefully these don't become scarce where you can't find them for at least a month.

tagging for interest.

I was waiting on benchmarks before I committed to upgrading out of AM3+. I play Games on my desktop at 1080p (and do the occasional rip of a CD), so Ryzen will not be up my alley. Looks like my future is one with a Kaby Lake system.

I'm really tempted to stay with AMD for another generation, but I dunno ...

I take it this will work on LGA 2011 v3 boards correct? My wife's upgrading and I'm trying to find her a cooler that won't break the bank.

I certainly hope so. With the low end Haswell-E and Broadwell chips, I believe they are limited to somewhere in the 25 PCIe lanes range. The next chips up from those have 40.

I'm gonna wait and see personally. My wife and I are thinking of upgrading our PCs Q1 2017 with our income tax refunds, and X99 is way too pricey for me personally without gimping PCI lanes via either a 5820K or a 6800K. If Zen performs well in what I do (gaming/multimedia tasks), then I'll...

Hey all, I've been having problems with my desktop hard locking on Windows 10 Pro. I can load into a game and play for any time I want, but if I need to open say Chrome or Waterfox; it'll hardlock within 15 minutes and I have to force a reset. I was using a GeForce GTX 960 (see signature), but...

You sir, are a blatantly trolling. Brent is correct here, and in the past Kyle and everyone who does reviews (or has reviewed equipment) for [H] has called out companies like AMD when it doesn't smell right. Get your fucking facts straight before you get straight eviscerated, because you...

I'm actually upgrading from my GTX 960 (and in the market right now), and it looks like based upon the review I'll get this card. Thanks Kyle and Brent for the review!

I bought mine to finally replace my stock cooler that I have been running on my FX8350 for sometime now. The other day, I saw the chip throttle out after hitting 90 degrees C and I came across the review. I paid $84 with two day shipping (wife needed a charging cord as well for a old Samsung...

I'm gonna be in the market for a 1080 soon, and the Asus Strix is admittedly at the top of my list.

What I currently have right now is the last AMD product that I will more than likely ever buy. I'm currently in the market for either a major upgrade or another full PC build in 2016, and based upon this shit that they're trying to pull I won't be buying another AMD video card, or even their...

The page for the case is live as well: It's a E-ATX case called the H-Tower, and the US page for it is http://www.inwin-style.com/en/goods.php?act=view&id=H-Tower

that sounds about right ... I also agree with what someone said above about kids pressing the button. My grandson (who turns 2 in October) would have the motor worn out in a couple of days.

I bought one of these from Newegg, mainly because of the review here. It does what I need it to do (play LoL and WoW) quite well, so I'm happy with the purchase. One thing I'm not happy about is that I can't redeem the code for the 6 months of XSplit that came with the card, but I'm not...

This card is at the top of my list to replace a Asus 680 that bit it a few weeks ago. That card, I bought based off the review here (680 DCII TOP for those curious), but I don't quite have the cash to pony up for a Strix 980, and right now I game @ 1080p. I'm planning on doing some additional...

I'm actually looking for something for my next gen consoles personally that doesn't take the space of my 50" plasma and I could possibly set on a desk or wall mount (provided there's VESA mounts). This may do the trick!

I bought a V3 3000 AGP card from the Hastings at the time along with the game Kingpin. I remember spending the whole night tearing my mother's Sony VAIO PC at the time apart to put it in!

I'm personally hoping for some really great mATX boards that showcase this chipset with the two spots to each side of the CPU socket to throw memory in. First manufacturer that pulls this off will have me rushing to Microcenter and buying into this chipset not only for myself, but for the missus...

I like the premise of the AIO cooler, and from what it sounds like; NZXT is doing well in this regard. But it's as Activate mentioned ... if you're looking at dropping $150 on one of the higher-end offerings in the CLC group, you are doing yourself a absolute disservice by not looking at the...

I went through my deceased brother-in-law's trailer about 6 months ago and found a vintage Sunn O))) solid state amp. Of course, it's on my to-do list to get refurbished when I have the money to get it done.

I'm actually looking at replacing my trustworthy White 600T with one of these come income tax time.

My wife and I already don't go to the movies as is, keep on pushing your bullshit agenda MPAA and you won't see us in a theater again after the other Hobbit movies are released on Bluray/DVD.

I'm actually contemplating rotating out my DCII TOP 680 and hooking that into the wife's PC, and getting one of these for myself. I'm waiting until I do my processor upgrade to the FX-8350 before I buy this though, and I might start a savings fund to go towards the price. Oh yeah, I also need to...

the following comes to mind: godfuckingdammit

That is a bit shit though. But I use a cdma phone, so I'm screwed either way.

I'm looking at upgrading to a 4gb GTX 680 from either MSI, Asus, or EVGA next month in order to enjoy this game in all it's glory. How does performance differ on one of these cards versus a SLI setup with two 680s, if at all? I play primarily at 1080p, and have been considering moving to more...

they're basically racing to build rigs, first and second place finishers get a trip to Vegas on Tigerdirect's dime to compete in the final.

would love to give this to my wife as a christmas present :D
