MSI is ahead of it's time. There was a reason to call their SSD's spatium...:D

No, I meant the CPU, that was the discussion when Alder Lake came out. Thanks.

@TheLostSwede I think CXL memory needs PCIe-5 protocol? Thanks.

11% is already higher than rx 5700. 26% is higher than rx 5700 xt. It smells like BS, or after a few days like a burnt GPU due to extreme OC. P.S. The comment is about gaming performance, not synthetic benchmarks. The only useful conclusion is that the GPU was gimped because of the narrower bus...

@ir_cow, 40 mm for "Low Profile" is questionable, I liked that. My G. Skill Trident Z5 is 42mm and the heat spreader does a really good work despite the 1,40v.

+1. BTW still too hot I think.

Exactly this. Now with the 3050 6gb available, there is no role for the 1650 any longer I think (says a happy 1650 owner).

It comes indeed with 2 fans, although you are right about the pictures. https://www.arctic.de/en/Freezer-36-CO/ACFRE00122A

You could try from the services. I think this was my solution IIRC

2560x1600, not 1440, I need the height to work. Very difficult to find though and 1920x1200 at 24 inch is still fine.

Yes I've learned that from the Coffee Lake vs Zen era, e.g. 8700(K) vs ryzen 2700x (more experienced members probably knew this long ago). Hence the term technically, I'm still curious, but it is also good to know if a node has further margins of improvement or has reached it's limits.

Is Intel 3 technically still a 7nm node with improved density and properties? It's a real question, thanks.

Please first post your specs. And like @P4-630 wrote, you might need both undervolting and a better cooler.

I think MSI Claw has an edge on synthetic benchmarks, like timespy. This could mean (no surprise here:rolleyes:) that Intel still needs work on their drivers to be competitive in games.

I don't believe we are even discussing about 2 measly billions :nutkick:.
