    7zip compression benchmarks with new Ryzen

    Could anyone help me to understand the following image... (posted on Guru3d review for 3800x) The reason why I am confused is that I found information that suggested 7zip can only use up to 8 threads when decompressing*. I am guessing that this information is incorrect if the 3900x (12c/24t)...

    which x570 board

    Ah sorry, I should have mentioned that this is for a 3700x build so figured it should be x570? Could be wrong though! I want something that will be good enough for upgrading to a 3900x later down the line

    Someone is trying to hack my website

    Make sure that any WordPress admins have a nickname set so that no one can query the actual admin username via the API or have it exposed through the blog posts. If you have access to the server host and it is using Apache I recommend adding this to your .htaccess file... The first part will...

    3-5 People to build a website?

    @DampCat - not sure if this is against forum rules or anything (hopefully not) but I work in this area as a freelancer, recently completed a big website project for a multi million £ construction company in the south of Ireland and many more in recent years, so I have built up a decent rep.

    which 2080 Super variant

    thanks for replies! My thinking was....I could get a 2080 super and overclock it to see close to 2080 TI stock speeds...I could be naive but when I looked at Guru3d stock benchmarks for the super, this seemed possible (not including 4k). If it was possible then it seems worth the extra money to...

    3700x build check

    Hey guys, Going to be ordering some new parts soon to replace my 4770k build and wanted to get some advice on the ones I picked out. Would like to have the option to upgrade to 3900x later on without changing any other parts. Some points in particular where I was a bit unsure: ram brand and...

    9900k vs 3900x vs 3800x vs 3700x

    Thanks all for the great replies, after much thinking have decided to go for the 3700x and I can always grab a 3900x or 3950x? (or will this one be a different socket?) later down the line if I am feeling fancy :) thanks again! EDIT: I just saw on the website that 3900x is due in 8th August...

Looking for...

    Parts suggestions for converting rig to media server

    Thanks mate, it sounds like my 780 has been doing a lot more streaming work than I gave it credit for. Just going to store media on normal mechanical HDDs for now then get some sort of raid going in the future for data loss protection. Thanks! after reading replies here and thinking it over...

    Parts suggestions for converting rig to media server

    Thanks for getting back mate. I thought a wee dinky cooler would be ok if the CPU wasn't overclocked but maybe not? There is an overclock on it now but I would not be applying that when it becomes a media server. I may have exaggerated the need to do cheap haha I can spend a bit extra to do it...
