    Upgrading from a Nvidia 1060 GTX 6GB

    I've been thinking about this for a while... Have you considered something on the secondary market at the upper end of the previous gen? Perhaps a vanilla 2080 or similar?

    OC a Ryzen 5 3600X on ASUS X370-Pro - help a returning OCer

    Hey guys, just responding because two of you said you're watching! Not great news I'm afraid :D After a few days of testing, I figured I could get an all core clock of about 4.2 GHz that seemed stable enough, the issue being at the cost of voltage. All in all I weighed my options and decided...

    Overclocking Voltages

    With voltages the rule of thumb is "use the lowest you can while still being stable" as high voltages lead to increased temperatures as well as decreased lifespan of your CPU. With that in mind, what you tend to do when overclocking the CPU is try to find a good trade-off between increased...

    OC a Ryzen 5 3600X on ASUS X370-Pro - help a returning OCer

    Hi everyone. Thanks for reading. I want to start off just by noting that I know I probably don't need to do any of this, but I was interested in what was possible so here we are. I am running the following rig: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X cooled by Coolermaster Masterliquid 240 AIO watercooling Asus...

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who replied in this thread. I finally bit the bullet and bought the Ryzen 3600X and some Corsair 3200 MHz RAM. After installation I was a bit worried because all the benchmarking I'd done beforehand (Prime95, 3DMark, etc) seemed almost entirely unchanged...

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    Haha it's partly because of the 2080 purchase that I'm trying to not go overboard on the other costs... :D But I will consider a 3700X and see what the difference in price looks like. Yeah my mobo is relatively old but I've flashed the BIOS already to be compatible with the 3XXX Ryzens and...

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    I agree - however I am also trying to take into account that I'm on a 1600X and have a 2080, so compared to a 2600 and a 2070 Super my issue is likely exaggerated. I am still very tempted to try the upgrade.

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    Not to disrupt my own thread, but if you like Hunt then Tarkov's worth a try. Totally different aesthetic, but the whole "gear up, go in, extract" feeling is obviously comparable. It's INSANELY complicated though. I've thrown ~40 h at it in the past week since I bought it and I still have no...

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    Thanks for that - yeah I think that running some 3200 MHz memory along with the CPU upgrade might make quite a difference to the setup as it currently stands.... Thanks for that, really helpful. He didn't have a 2080 in the mix, but the 2070 Super is pretty similar in spec so I just looked at...

    Is my Ryzen 5 1600X a bottleneck?

    Hey everyone. Long time since I posted outside of the GD subforum so be kind ;) I run the following rig: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X 14 nm (cooled with Coolermaster Masterliquid 240 AIO watercooling) Asus Prime X370-Pro (Socket AM4) DDR4 ATX Zotac nVidia GeForce RTX 2080 8GB PCI-e Corsair Vengeance LPX...

    As someone who literally spent this afternoon writing a report on results to do with my research on lithium batteries, I'll add my thanks for the interesting post, StoutMeister :)

    The all new, all fresh Random Image Thread

    While the MPs are clearly a problem, those "info"graphics are more a demonstration of how terrible FPTP is than an argument against remaining in the EU. That tiny absolute majority of <4% of voters (who showed up) cascades into an untrue massive majority with the way the votes are counted using...
