These things will be hens teeth for at least 6 months. Not to worry though! I'm sure GN and J2C will each get half a dozen of each model.

As a current 2080Ti owner I agree with this, to an extent. If I use DLSS it can handle "some" ray tracing at 1440P. The more granular the RT settings offered in the game the better. Like CP2077 I can enable some of it, and get some effect, while maintaining 60+ FPS.

I have a mint condition OLED Vita sitting here PCH-1001 I'd be willing to part with.

These 200 series are the first desktop parts.

In all fairness this is the first "tiled" silicon CPU that Intel put out. The 1000 series Ryzen weren't all that good. 2000 series saw a good jump, and 3000 was a large jump. AMD just has years of product improvement under their belt. Intel will catch up, possibly.

Gamers want the best for gaming. Imagine that. And Intel isn't it. Not saying Intel isn't "good enough", because they are. But if I'm building something that's going to be 95% used for gaming I'm going with the best option for gaming. Not something that's OK at gaming and obliterates the...

I agree with this. Going from a 3700X to a 5700X3D I saw a nice bump in frames and higher lows while gaming at 2560x1440, everything else on the system remained the same. I tend to keep quality high, except for MP shooters (PUBG, COD). I never felt CPU bound, but something is clearly helping.

Oh wow, OLED? Looks at my PS Vita from 2012 with an OLED display. How cute.

Integrated fittings? No thank you.

That's an odd list of mobo's. You'd think it would include an entire line, but it doesn't. I don't see my X570 Aorus Ultra listed, but the Elite is.

That's already done in Windows. J2C covered this.

I'm not turning my office in to a sauna to find a prime numbers.

GN covers this a bit. When he does cooler testing he has that laser imaging machine that shows the flatness of cooler bases and CPU IHS's. They tend to show the IHS to be concave. I wonder if it would be beneficial to lap the IHS and water block base. I did that on my old Q6600 back in the day...

Definitely not this gen, not after those trash reviews.

That's not a very compelling reason to upgrade over a 7800X3D. Personally, in my opinion, I feel that skipping 2-3 generations of processors isn't that detrimental to your gaming experience unless you're still playing at 1080P. Unless there is a massive leap in performance due to architecture...

There's a lot of surface area on a GPU water block to remove heat from. CPU waterblocks are rather small in comparison. I could see a bigger CPU block, that also covers the VRM's as well, being an option. But since there is no layout standard they would be very expensive. Especially when each...

370W is exotic cooling territory. I don't think there is a water block that can handle that kind of heat.

LOL

5700X3D's are still in abundance. And it's not far off in performance from the 5800X3D. Definitely a lot cheaper as well.

Well that would explain the lack of 5800X3D's being available to purchase.
