It baffles me how some people spend 2k+ on a rig and won't spend the extra $100 on a 2tb SSD.

Especially when they waste money on 32gb of ram

Crossfire was worth it on like one game with one pair of video cards. When they got rid of the bridge and put frame pacing in for BF4 with Hawaii cards...

Still doesn't change the fact that you have a 1tb spinner in that build.

Beast of a system, can't wait to see pics.

I've had PC fever recently and really want to upgrade all my shite. I'm thinking a subtle purple and gold theme, not too plain or too extreme.

Mass storage only. Didn't see the harm.

As expected, much better results for the AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT have now been spotted on Geekbench (v5.2). The single-core score was an impressive 1,413 points while the multi-core score was 12,970 points. These latest results make the Matisse Refresh chip a much more attractive prospect for desktop PC builders.


1413 and 12970 is a good jump from
1250 and 10498.

10900K still leads single core 1449 to 1413, while the 3900XT wins multi 12970 to 11414.

Never mind. After further research and some advice from tech Jesus, I’d be crazy not to roll with an i5 10600k for just $300

Deciding to just upgrade pretty much my whole PC at this point. 2070S is installed. Next up is CPU and Mobo. Not sure if I should go 9700k + Z390 or 10700k + Z490 for an extra $70.

Note: the 10700 has hyper threading, the 9700k does not.



Just go for the 10600k. Better value and when overclocked matches the 9900k/10900k in games.

(That is if you don't care about any sort of work/production tasks - get the Ryzen chips if you do, they are a better value for your money.)
