    How do you get games for PC?

    I quit using Torrent when the internet bill started to come in my name lol.. Nothing there for me anymore. I usually only buy games that are on sale. But I use Steam, Epic, EA, Ubi, GOG, pretty much all of them.. I don't recall seeing a PC game in store for probably at least a decade now. Heck...

    I just bought Black Ops Cold War for 26 beaver bucks.

    AMD Expected to Announce Ryzen 5000XT CPUs at Computex

    This is what I was tying to get at. Under 4K for sure, there is a huge bump. Same with 1080p. But I dont care about those, I care about 4K, and I only need 60FPS because I use vsync on my TV.

    I play at 4K, so X3D does not really help me too much. My CPU is not running @ stock like reviewers run. I have a few AM4 CPUs, including 58X3D.

    You don't need X3D parts to play games :cool:

    Sweet, what kinda wattage was your CPU pulling with AVX?

    So not very stable :D All good though, its tough to get good numbers from an old CPU like this.

    Lol.. This is just R23.. how stable is your 4700MHz with a real load?

    Is it? I have the board too, but have never used the feature. IMO the feature is not needed at all, you can get it to boost that high just with curve and power settings.

    Mine too. I should have kept it. Would I buy an XT now? Maybe.. depends on how hard they push their clocks. I know my 3600XT mopped the floor with regular 3600s.

    getting ready for dual 5090, Functional protype on dual 4090

    Honestly.. if it were me.. I wouldn't have it on the floor. I would get an end table or something :)

    Pretty sick man! As you can tell, there is some hardware envy going on here :laugh:

    Can u use same tube of thermal paste?

    This is where that AI TIM comes into play. Not only can it keep itself pure, it can also self generate, and will never separate..

    Post your cooling.

    Why pay for a custom loop when I get the same if not better temps for $70CAD? For an X3D part I think even an AIO is not necessary let alone a loop :)
