Currently using the Noctua NH-U14S. Was wondering if I were to get the 7700k, will this cooler be adaqute enough to handle it at 5ghz? Also are the chances for 7700k hitting 5ghz high or is that only achievable for a small minority?

So we have seen all sorts of theories batted around here for days now about why the AMD Ryzen CPUs show poor gaming performance at 1080p resolutions and below. One of the reasons that has been rumored heavily has been put to the fault of the Windows Scheduler. PCPer has a full look, with tons...

AMD's second fastest processor 1700X is showing some really impressive performance in Passmark benchmark. It's single thread performance which is crucial, was faster than both Intel's 5960x & 6800k and was only 3% slower than the 6900k. Again keep in mind this is the 1700x, not the 1800x which...

Hello So I have the new Asus Strix Extreme mobo with a skylake 6700k, the pins on the motherboard are bent, and they managed to make a scratch on two of the copper electricity receivers (on the cpu, not the core in the middle). I am thinking the cpu might still work as long as the copper...

According to Digitimes : Seems we are getting there finally and if Zen goes on sale in February it should finally be over ;)

I'm pretty torn between getting the 6800k and the 6700k. I do like that the 6800k has more lanes. I'm going to be mostly gaming so It does make more sense to go with the 6700k, even though It does have better single core performance. And is there even a difference when gaming with the 6800k as...
