    will NH-D15s be enough?

    Just checked my D14 cooler and it can cool up to approx 270W CPUs. So D15 should have no problem with your CPU. Got my D14 for 10 years now and just upgraded the fans to RGB ones. Had to order a AM4/AM5 adapter for it from Noctua for free recently. They shipped it with Fedex in 4 days with home...

    Could not enter Bios after CPU / Mobo upgrade.

    Hi, Just wanted to share a strange behavior of my ASUS TUF Gaming B650-Plus when I installed it yesterday with my new shiny Ryzen 7 7800x3d. After first boot it asked something about fTPM reset and then went to the normal first startup screen where it lists the CPU, ram, shows the Bios logo and...

    Upgrade from I7 8700k to Ryzen 7800x3d system?

    I yesterday installed the 7800x3d and other parts. Was quite frustrating for 2h since PC hanged and first screen and could not enter bios. I make a dedicated post about the problem I had and how I solved it.

    Upgrade from I7 8700k to Ryzen 7800x3d system?

    Got me a 7800x3d + TUF B650 Plus mobo + Kingston Fury Beast 32GB 6000MHz RGB ram for under 700e. That makes me wonder why GPUs are so expensive. My RTX 4070Ti was 1000e in summer and I now can get all, a new CPU, mobo and ram for less than that.

    overheating issue

    And what was all the fuss about new AM5 Ryzens that were provided too much voltage not long ago? Burned out sockets and fried CPUs too. That was fixed with Bios update.

    overheating issue

    You could go to the bios, check the bios version that is installed and as google about the bios version and known issues (and bugs) with it. Youtube video about updating your mobos bios with usb stick: Asus Prime B450 Plus Bios Update Tutorial Ryzen CPU 2019 - YouTube. You can also try...

    overheating issue

    A bug in the bios could for example cause the CPU to get too much voltage delivered, even on stock settings = more heat.

    Upgrade from I7 8700k to Ryzen 7800x3d system?

    The upgrade to DDR5 feels right at this time. Been a guy that has same CPU for 4+ or 5+ years so at least DDR5 would stay ontop better than decade old tech by the time for the next CPU upgrade. Sorry there was an error I got a Gigabyte mobo, I bought it couple of year after my initial Asus...

    Upgrade from I7 8700k to Ryzen 7800x3d system?

    Use case gaming mostly. Got a LG 65" CX that can do 4k 120Hz HDR with GSYNC / Freesync / VRR. I most times aim for 4K 60FPS if possible. From my PS5 I learned that even 4K with 40FPS when using VRR is good enough for me. I dont care much about RT but if the game lets me use it with 60FPS minimum...

    Upgrade from I7 8700k to Ryzen 7800x3d system?

    Hello, Black friday is closing in and I have got some spare money for CPU + mobo + ram. This summer I upgraded to a RTX 4070 Ti and am struggeling with some modern games due to my I7 8700k system. Should I go with a Ryzen 7800x3d and a Asus TUF GAMING B650-PLUS mobo? These parts would be in my...
