Maybe AMD just wants to be on top for a while and shut intel and all fanboys up for a bit. This should do the trick.. intels bullcrap 6k ghz will be dead in the water. They might as well cancel it. Mobo prices won't be a big issue for potential buyers of this monstrosity.

Lol that's me about 15 years ago ;) actually picked up that 4850 and was very happy for it, ran woltk like a champ ;) still in a box somewhere. :o

Yeah you are right probably about that. Just wish they would have gone bit more towards the efficiency side. Might be that future agesa updates and driver maturity also help those prefering a bit lower temps eventually.

I'm a big fat AMD fan boy, I even own a bundle of stock, but I can't appreciate the choice of running out of the box oc's, which is the only thing i can call it when it runs 95 celcius on a decent air cooler. I understand the competition with Intel is "heating up" but these are not temps the...

Sounds like anything but a paper launch on august 22th would be ludicrous. Certainly they wont try to get this into oems anytime soon? The negative impact on the brand name surely isn't worth it to intel. Personally I think it would be incredibly arrogant to do a non paper launch, wasting many...

They really needed this card to be more in the 1660 super neighbourhood. Or at a bare minimum 1660 normal. Now they're in the questionable neighbourhood of the gimped cards that can't even be trusted to perform anywhere near to what you'd expect by reading the series number on the box or might...

Our dutch hardware info website claims the yields of the 6700XT are extremely good, so good they will not launch a 6700 soon because they barely have any sub optimal outcomes. They also claim these cards will be available in significantly higher volumes then other cards. But with the current...

Based on these results you'd think the 10600 non k at 40-50$ less seems like the best way to go as oc has become obsolete somewhat and you still get the 4.8ghz max clock. The platform costs sort of ruin the greatness of the whole gen though. Because the i5's are mostly greatly priced it seems...

you could start by downloading things like core temp and cpu z gpu z and see where the temps are at. crystal disk info will tell you the health of your hard drives Sounds to me like a classic mechanical hdd having issues with spinning up. Crystal disk info might indicate a warning, but it...

I would go with a ssd nvme, whatever is on sale and is a decent brand, drop the mechanical hdd, unless you are sure you need 2tb anytime soon. These days buying ssd/nvme under 512GB is almost never gonna get you the right $/gb price. 1TB better ofc if you can afford it, but don't go under...

Whenever I run into an infected system, or start with sorting any sort of problems on someones pc, I always start with ADW cleaner by malwarebytes. Simply because it takes about 2 minutes to install and run the complete scan and it finds quite a lot. After a couple of reboots in case it is...

I use this program called Ultra Virus Killer, it's freeware mostly. The name doesnt cover the content in this case ;) Anyways, in this program there's a section called system repair that has a couple of options to repair/reset what you are asking for. it's called "reset registry and file...

I have the clicking noise on my Samsung f1 spindrive as well for years now since I installed windows 10, using crystal disk info in windows startup and overwritting apm/aam fixes this. This does not mean there's something wrong with the drive, just some crappy change in the way windows 10...

Just to give you Americans some extra info. The prices in the US seem to be ok for Intel cpu's atleast at amazon.com. Over here in Europe the mark up has been much more extreme. It's slowly coming down on some models but 130-200 euro's markup, i5 - i7 was standard at retailers with actual...

damn this is exactly what I expected, IDSA and all it predecessors are garbage, though IDSA seems a lot more obtrusive, I'm guessing/hoping that part won't be mandatory in the UWD future...
