Doubtful anyone remembers me -- I was never a big poster.

But I loved XS back in the day. From middle school, building my first custom rig (socket 754 Athlon 64 3200+), to high school, building a...

Finally snagged a board. Ordered the Gigabyte X370 K7 yesterday, and it appears to be boxed up waiting for FedEx according to Newegg.

My only minor concern is that the M.2 slot is right under the...

Awesome to see XS being xtreme yet again! :D

I was away for some time, and when I came back, it seemed the forums had more-or-less died. Seems like Ryzen has injected a breath of fresh air into XS...

Having not built a new rig since 2011 (Sandy Bridge), my memory fails me: Has there ever been a major CPU launch like this where decent motherboards are just completely unavailable?

I hate to...

I'm wondering the same thing.

Have had the CHVI Hero on order since 02/22, and Amazon has still yet to provide an estimate. 1800x arrives this Tuesday (thanks, Amazon.... better late than never I...

I should have known not to think AMD could hit a homerun twice in a row.

Grrr, I don't even know what to do. I don't want to put my GTX 970 into my new Ryzen build... But I also don't want to buy...

I by no means think AMD is some kind of charity, looking out solely for our best interests as customers...

But man, if this is true, Intel really are one scummy company. :mad: :down:

Speaking only for myself: Different priorities for different components.

I'm (potentially) willing to spend $650 on a GPU. I'd rather spend ~$400 - ~$450 (AKA what cut-down big dies used to...

Thank you!

I think my old C2D era DFI must have spoiled me for voltage regulation then. It was so rock stable... Man I miss that board...

Hey guys. I know I said it would be quick and easy... But I ended up having some issues with the stability of that clock and want to check on my new settings.

I'm now just running straight 4.4ghz,...

Awesome!

Thank you FUGGER!

Hey fellas. It's been years since I built the system I'm currently using and followed pc hardware, so you could say I'm rusty + out of the loop.

I had no need to overclock my 2500k since I had it...

Went ahead and put down an order last night on the ACX 1.0 equipped EVGA superclocked. Hopefully won't regret it.

The ACX 1.0 cooler is decent, yeah?

Yeah that's pretty much what I was thinkin. Figured I'd ask anyways though, just in case.

I've had my B3 replacement board sitting around for a few months now. I'm just too lazy to throw it in until I need to.

In the past two days, however, I've been getting graphical corruption in any...

I don't want to admit it, because I've bought into the sandybridge hype (literally), but I think you're right. :(

Can't wait for this. Nothing I love more than taking my PC apart, shipping my board at my own expense, waiting 2 weeks with no computer, and then putting it back together.

Good work Intel....

What our friend Mr. Oslo needs to do is just stop playing the victim. It's that easy. :yepp:

Deleted due to double-post.

Very nice to see the Ti name making a comeback.

I still have a soft-spot for my old Ti 4400.

73 huh. Good to know.

I've been out of the loop since 775 to some extent, so I wasn't sure what kind of pain these chips can deal with. I guess they're not too fragile though. ;)

What kind of temps are you guy's finding to be the conservative max?

On my hottest core I'm getting ~52c under LinX, which seems good. But this is without any OC'ing yet. So I dunno what to...

Just now waiting for my UD5 to arrive, and suddenly my OCD is kicking in like crazy. :shocked:

This is going to drive me insane lol.

Let's hope it's an isolated incident.

OK, I ended up deciding on this RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231444

I'm actually getting this all as a birthday present from my parents. As a poor university...

Yup, this is pretty much how I'm feeling too.



Well, I'm part of the lowly 1680x1050 group of peasants. :rofl: So I'm not TOO worried about vmem.

As for price, I'll have to look at a few...
