  1. Latest AMD Zen 6 Rumors Suggest Clock Speeds Surpassing 7 GHz, and Mixed Node Processes Depending on the Model

    The 9950 meets my needs. But if I needed more storage I/O or ram support yes I would go threadripper. If I were building a workstation it would be threadripper with 512 gigs of ram. A pair of nvme boot drives in raid 1 and a set of four nvme 4tb storage drives most likely in a raid 5...
  2. Latest AMD Zen 6 Rumors Suggest Clock Speeds Surpassing 7 GHz, and Mixed Node Processes Depending on the Model

    In the end when it comes right down to it I don't care about what node is used to make the part I want to buy. I care about the performance, and honestly durability and security of the product. In that order. Give me a high performing Zen desktop SKU with a lot of cores and great gaming and...
  3. Subnautica 2 Drama Ensues as Ex-Studio Heads Sue Publisher After Release Date Was Pushed Back to Reportedly Avoid Paying Bonuses

    Oh wow.. Crack down achieve targets... then nefariou move to delay launch to avoid paying bonus.... sounds legit to me at first blush.
  4. NVIDIA Trots past Microsoft and Apple to Become the World’s First Company Valued at More than $4 Trillion

    I'm not even that greedy. I just want 1% of 1% of 1% of their market valuation... at 4 trillion. That's just a measly 4 million. ;) Heck They could easily afford the pay me 1 penny the first day and double the pay every day for a month. That's only 10,737,418.23!
  5. Cooler Master Launches MasterFrame 600 in Europe, Its First Modular Open-Frame ATX Chassis Based on the New FreeForm 2.0 Series

    Looks neat. Will try and keep this line in mind for the next rebuild.
  6. Headset recommendations for loud environment

    Honestly I love my earfun air pro earbuds I have and find the ANC experience with them to be VERY good. Not Sony quiet connect whatever they are up to good, but but FAR more than 75% as good for 25% of the cost. And this is their headset. Supports gaming, ANC, and USB connectivity...
  7. Reusing an old AMD motherboard (X370)

    I would see if that motherboard supports a power off or pre boot bios update. If so i would start with that with the 3000 series cpu still installed. Only then swap to the 5000 series cpu then do your installs. Reason being your memory controllers and i/o are different between gens and...
  8. Mouse recommendations without the bloatware

    This will totally be on my list next go around.
  9. Call of Duty: WWII Goes Offline After RCE Exploits, Allowing Hackers to Completely Take Over Users’ Systems Are Discovered

    Wow... complete takeover via a video game. That's nightmare material right there... and a knock on multiplayer network/internet connected solutions. Imagine if you could run a private server and only allow friends in... wouldn't that be so much better? ;)
  10. From Cancelled Games to Closed Studios, There’s a Trail of Carnage in the Wake of Microsoft’s Layoffs

    Microsoft is done caring about making a billion all at once... they want RMR. Expect more live services investment from them with subscriptions tied to it.
  11. AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Gets a Major 9% Performance Uptick with Latest Drivers, New Testing Shows It Besting NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti in Some Games

    These days it would be Nvidia cards for drivers.... or for hardware malfunctions, firmware updates that are bricking cards, cards leaking coolant... and so forth... Amd had issues but their drivers have historically been fine wine.
  12. AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT Gets a Major 9% Performance Uptick with Latest Drivers, New Testing Shows It Besting NVIDIA RTX 5070 Ti in Some Games

    Honestly I think price to benefit of making the high end GPU's and the price they would need to sell them at simply priced the consumer high end out in such a way that AMD didn't want to be THAT company. So they released the mid tier cards and did they very best they could. And it shows.
  13. 5700x3d

    As Homer simpson would say. DOH!!
  14. Windows 12 Is No Longer Expected This Year as Microsoft Prepares 25H2 Build Update for Windows 11

    I mean 11 had the higher end DX12, and Direct storage but they propagated that down to 10 in short order too. I guess it just makes for a cleaner development to stick with one core.
