So, as the first step toward a new box, I am considering to get this PSU:

Hi,

Something that began to happen in August last year is that PC gets stuck in reboot loops when (re)starting. So, it never restarts on its own, but every (re)start might mean a stressful...

Menanwhile, I've heard that Intel still OC's better. I think ultimately I will just wait a year or two for the two to get their sh[beeeeeeeep] together.

Hey

Hold on with this thread, I discovered that AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X exists.

Wait a sec.... I just discovered AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X.
Ya, the price stings but it plays out well with RAM I already have, and I am just reading how it compares to i9-10980XE on other terms.

So, the German manual has the mobo info.

A possibility is that they just screwed up when producing the pdf in English. It is sort of a day of dedicated work to translate that portion; thus highly...

Holy ... !!! But I saw the board in sales. Isn't it already in the market? Does Asus first sell hardware and then get to writing manuals? xD I don't think so. :p

Hi,

I would like to have a closer look at this mobo, but can't find the manual. I found this one

https://www.asus.com/ch-en/Motherboards/ROG-Strix-X299-E-Gaming-II/HelpDesk_Manual/

But it...

Now that I played with my i7-7820X at 4.4 GHz (4.6 GHz max), methinks that equally OC'd i9-10980XE will be fine in combo with ROG Strix X299-E Gaming II and some colling yet to be determined.

A...

About fps, I want Quake Champions at stable 240+ fps, preferrably at stable 300 fps. Anything less is kinda what I have right now, with zero upgrade.

The game has about the same fps on high and...

Thanks for the entries, folks! Keep them coming.

Only a short pointer now, I currently game on one of the two 2k monitors. I am happy with the 2k, but might want to move to 240 Hz. This may...

Hi.

I would like to speak hypothetically. Let's say that I have this:
- ASUS ROG Strix X299-E Gaming
- Intel Core i7-7820X 3.6 GHz @ 4 GHz
- CMK32GX4M4A3200C16
- ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Strix...

All right.

I got a reco to get myself i9-9900KS, and a corresponding mobo. It actually makes sense to me, even though it means replacing the cooling system as well.

Thanks both for the input!

Well if I move to AMD, I need a new mobo anyway, eh? ;)


What cache are you referring to? I can't find anything about that among the mobo specs
...

Hi,

I am with i-7820X and GTX 1080 Ti Strix. So far, I've seen several indicators that the CPU is a bottleneck for some gaming moments.

Concretely, in Quake Champions, folks get stabler and...

Heh. I might just start off with getting myself a new MOBO then.

Can we talk about this meanwhile?

I might be tempted to try out the i9-10980XE. Will it work with an X299-E? Considering my configuration (the profile) are some issues foreseeable?

Yeah, sorta.

Okay, so that will be the slots A1 and C1.

82896

I have Corsair vengeance and they work fine in.

By the way, now that I read again, lags could be caused by entirely other things than RAM.
E.g. my M2 SSD was overheating under the 1080 Ti and needed relocation before system freezes went away.
...

I know this question may sound like a broken record, but are all four sticks in the slots where they should be according to the manual?
...

Fancy.

Some time has passed. I've got to say that I am in love with the sound I am getting from this card.

Playing the music. The crystalizer, surround and bass do magic, I am so excited to keep...

Nah, that driver has made no difference. I've installed it and rolled back.

However, in that process, the ACM stopped blinking. Hell, its light seems dead now. I can't turn it on. Any idea why?...

No, I haven't. Then again, all is stable now. I am inclined to believe that the RAM is fine, despite having traveled all the way from Germany. xD
