Think I only owned Linksys and Asus routers.

Same, with the exception of one D-Link that was solid, the DIR 655 I think it was. The Netgear experience was the worst of them all.

When my ASUS router died i decided to give Netgear a shot and so far it's been very good.

My father who is very particular tech purchases liked this one so much he went and bought 2 of them.
I got one myself from Frys for $169.99 with a promo code.
Its a beast.

i5 6 core rumored to be $299. And I don't have to swap mobos... May do that if true and heat issues fixed.

If true, hopefully the motherboard manufacturers will provide BIOS updates for support on Z170 boards.
Posted on 7/22/17 at 2:06 pm to boXerrumble
They will I'm sure, my Z170 had an update for Kaby Lake support before it was even released.

Tired of explaining this Yes its a win but the chips are clocked almost 1GHz higher.
Yes it will draw more power.
It just shows that 4C @ 4.0GHz is where it starts. Hate how most sites cherry pick. It is a terrible story, Intel shtt the fckking bed but don't cherry pick 1080p benchmarks where we know DR kicks in for gaming.

I am loving it, have to disagree there.
4GHz Ryzen 6 core with the same FPS average and minimum's across 30 fricking games is WOWWWWW.
I love when these legit sites test TONS of games instead of cherry picking a few to make one or the other look better. HU and TS dropping the boom with some serious testing. Love seeing it.
L O L at high end custom loops required JUST for 4.7GHz on a 6 core and HU still suffered a burnt contact to boot.

Ryzen will hit 4GHz with the box cooler but it will be a more mild experience with a $20 aftermarket cooler like the Cooler Master 212, so keep that in mind. The 7800X on the other hand cannot be overclocked to 4.7GHz using a 240mm AIO closed loop solution. Instead, it required a $380 custom loop setup to achieve that result.

Definitely interesting.

I think it is super cool.
The coolest packaging for a computer part that I ever owned came with my MSI 780 Lightning years ago. Came in a really nice black lacquered box.

That looks terrible.
I wonder if it tries to steal your wedding ring when you pick it up.
