I've already upgraded, 5600x and had already got me a 6800XT back in January before things got properly insane.

That's why I was replacing the 6600k

The SK kit had the "lead" slots in the old system and everything was fine so I'm thinking this is nothing to worry about, just subtle differences in the roles assigned that the Samsung sticks are suited to. **I say "I'm thinking" what I really mean is "I'm hoping"

So I got my stuff and got all put together a couple of days ago but encountered a strange "issue" Bit of background, my RAM is made up of 4x8GB sticks of Corsair Vengeance 3000MHz, I originally had a 2x8 set and later added another 16GB so 2 sticks are SK Hynix and the latter set are Samsung...

I'm currently using a Brocken 2 and had an original back in the day as well, had glanced at the Brocken 3 elsewhere and it didn't have AM4 listed as compatible so I just ruled it out without looking into it, but it obviously is compatible so I'd be happy to go down that route again. Useful tip...

How big a performance gap are we talking between the 5600x and 5800x? The extra cores and threads would be nice but for gaming does it have much impact given there is only 100MHz between the core boosts? I think I'll maybe maybe go with the 5600x and use the saved money to get one of these...

But that is tempting too. Too many options and by the time I've researched them all the next gen stuff will be out :confused:

I think I have reached the same conclusion. Would need a new cpu cooler too so I need to look into that and see how that'll impact total cost.

Currently running 4x8GB Corsair Vengeance 3000MHz which I understand is a touch slow but is that unusable for the new Ryzen chips? I had just assumed it wouldn't be ideal and I'd change that down the line.

Could probably run to about £500 for CPU and motherboard, but cheaper is obviously better as I don't like spending money for the sake of it or to enlarge my e-peen. Hard to say how long I need it to last, as things stand I could easily upgrade again in a year or 2, but the new wife is melting my...

Getting the upgrade bug and looks like the CPU and motherboard are in line for a change. Running an i5 6600k @ 4.5GHz so it's still a fairly decent setup and I've been considering going down the 10700k route with those high clock speeds as prices are that bit lower now, is that likely to be...

So the speakers. I know there are lots of reports of one speaker not working properly and I feel I'm in that boat but I can't be sure. My right speaker sounds a lot quieter than the left but when I'm using it the sound seems balanced somehow, it doesn't seem to throw the perception of where the...

I'm not convinced, everything else in VR has so far been rock solid.

Aye, 21.2.2 but all the drivers I've tried with it have caused the same problem. Hopefully there's a fix buried in the UK update tomorrow

Using a 6800XT for VR (G2) in MSFS but unfortunately I'm suffering constant crashes, but not sure if it's a driver problem or an issue with the sim, haven't had a single crash caused by anything else. Can be made run pretty smooth before the crashes but you'd definitely need to tinker with...

I'm going to assume you're stupid. We voted to leave the EU. Northern Ireland has not left the EU hence the ******* problem.

Overclockers.ie? Poll all you want you reprobate.

Oh I see I've tickled some remoaners. The opportunities don't exist without access to our own internal market you numpties! While the UK can benefit, Northern Ireland is being left with nothing but to trade with the economic powerhouse that is the RoI :rolleyes: These issues aren't because of...

No, the most logical was to maintain the constitutional integrity of the UK and the border with Ireland be damned! All that comes over it is illegal fuel and terrorists and maybe a bit of meat occasionally. But because of remoaners we now have an open border with a foreign country we don't need...

I think what should be clear now is that a border in the Irish Sea is utterly unworkable on top of being illegal. But hey, this is what happens when you've got mentally subnormal people undermining your own negotiating position. Internal market bill is the only hope now.
