    I just found out today my old boss died in December, he was 69. I don't even consider that to be "old", both my parents are older than that. Only had 4 years of retirement in, I sure hope I get more than that otherwise wtf am I killing myself saving for?

    **** 58 isn't old. I'll be lucky if I can even retire by 60. Cancer is a bitch, and pancreatic is usually a death sentence. Sad.

    AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU Review

    also..... if I'm 1440p or even the dreaded 4k, does it really matter with a 4070? I know WHY you run benches at 1080 to show what the cpu can do, but I don't play at 1080. If I'm GPU limited then the CPU kinda doesn't matter coming from a 5700x, right?
