NVIDIA's grabbing all the margin in GeForce cards, so board partners like ASUS, MSI, and Gigabyte are trying to maximize profits elsewhere.
ASRock can afford to price theirs less because this business is just utilizing Pegatron's existing manufacturing capacity.

heres an idea
now that l3 cache is at the bottom and doesnt impact frequency, just dont release future cpus without l3 cache
make all 10000 serries cpus have loads of l3, and dont launch them overpriced just to bring the prices down next month because no one cares about non-l3 cache cpus

So here is the deal, I am building a system with a rx6600. I was originally going to go with a 550w psu but I realized that my idle power consumption is almost definitely going to be under the 10% efficiency curve.
Now I am thinking of getting a 400w one instead, but I am wondering if I am cutting it too close here or not. Is the risk even worth it? Is there even any actual risk though?

9000x3d is fine and has 0 downside other than price compared to non3d but Ryzen 9 9900x3d ain't out yet.

No they just chose to side with nvidia on GPUs because Radeon doesn't sell compared to them. As for the motherboard/CPU market, MSI is well known for having really good "relationship" with Intel so it doesn't surprise they're ignoring AM5 and other AMD products.

>>103118811
>it's impossible for board vendors to just raise prices because they want to

The mental gymnastics people go through to excuse board vendors is staggering

It's accepted Nvidia can swindle you anytime but it's impossible for the other multibillion dollar companies in the chain to do the same.

Hindsight is 20/20. We now know that the IO Die is bottlenecking zen5 so badly that vcache even improves productivity performance.
Amd themselves couldn't have known all this during the design phase and by the time it's apparent, it's already far too late.
I doubt non3d zen6 will be as bad considering they're going to revamp the interconnects for the first time since zen2

It might be more expensive, how expensive depends on how high the tariffs are. Also get ready to welcome back and Intel monopoly as I have no doubt they'll do everything in their power to make amd and nvidia go bankrupt.

>>
>>103118963
>which means goodbye to reasonable amd prices
Yeah, I know. My point was that Intel will take advantage of that and leverage their fabs to try and do to AMD what they did in the early 2000s, and I expect them to try the same against nvidia in the GPU space.

>>103118884
>dont launch them overpriced just to bring the prices down next month
Surge price for new product is fine. Once the demand/production capacity dies down, the prices can come down to real value. Before that, its free money sitting on table.
>>
>>103118982
As someone who has been here awhile it's bizarre seeing someone defend pricing like this.

I used to be able to buy a burger for $1 too

>>103118946
why did you stupid faggots vote for the orange retard
>>
>>103119000
I've been here long enough time to understand how the market works and how production works.

When a new product is released, they are still ramping up and there is a lot of demand for it. If 5,000 people/week want to buy a product but you can only produce 1000 a week, you're just leaving 4000 customers dry anyway. Instead, you just increase the price by 50-100 and the demand drops from 5000/w down to 1000/w. So now you have perfect amount of production rate and demand rate. This is most efficient. 1000 people still get served no matter what. Once the production rate increase to 2000/w, you lower the price 50-100 and then you get 2000/w demand. Supply magically doesn't increase overnight, it has be to built up over the course of months. Adjustment of demand isn't anything to do with ethics, since the you still will only serve a static number of demand due to limited demand.
>>
>>103119050
Alternatively, you could create a line/que system where people wait for weeks/months. But that line/que system is based on first in first out. With a surge price, the line/que system is actually based on needs basis. People who really really really want it will pay extra to get ahead, while people who are only considering upgrade will wait a bit for prices to fall down and think smarter.

>ace is typically taichi tier
No, it's not. The Taichi is in the same tier as the MSI Carbon, ASUS Strix-E, and the Gigabyte AORUS Master.
MSI Ace is on par with ASUS ROG Maximus board. People who are willing to spend over $500 on motherboards rarely pick ASRock boards.
>>
>>103119050
Clearly you haven't been here long enough to experience when a product was released, it was fucking released, none of this soft or paper launches being the norm everywhere.

It's not impractical to have stock actually ready. Maybe if they held the fuck up you wouldn't be beta testing CPUs so much. I can only guess you like this atmosphere.
>>
>>103119050
I wonder how long the 9800X3D will stay in prime "production" before they switch to selling lower core parts like the 7600X3D over the overpriced 7800X3D. We know these are all just cast-offs of EPYC chips so how much and how long they can stockpile these parts for the DIY market is an open question (they are purpose making these SKUs to sell on their own merits). The 5800X3D had a very short lifespan as a viable CPU option before being supplanted by the 5700X3D & 5600X3D at MicroCenters.
>>
>>103118922
>The mental gymnastics
It's called reality, dumb fuck.
This is why MSI, Gigabyte, and ASUS are all aggressively expanding to higher-margin segments like monitors and PSU.
What did the EVGA CEO planned to do after cutting ties with NVIDIA? He wanted to focus on selling motherboards, AIOs, peripherals, and PSUs.
That's called reality.

Consumers have the power to collectively set acceptable pricing limits.
Overpriced boards remain overstocked, and end up getting discounted.
Launch prices will always be expensive to maximize profits.

It means Americans will now have even more money to spend. While teh tariffs will force the companies to manufacture and produce goods in America, which gives more jobs to America, which leads to more money for Americans.

I just got a new monitor (Dell G2724) and I noticed that on black screens there seems to be a reddish tint to the right side of the display (most prominent in the corner) and a blueish tint to the left (same, also in the corner). If I bring my face up to either edge of the display and then look at the opposite edge I notice the same tint across the entire screen (so looking from the left the display looks reddish, from the right it looks bluish). Should I assume there's something wrong with it or is this normal?

They just need 18A to actually work and they basically have a monopoly the moment tariffs drop. Nvidia will survive but I suspect they'll lose massive market share everywhere. AMD will either have to focus on alternative markets, asia/jeetland/yurop/latin america, or just straight up kill their gpu/cpu division and focus on datacenter only. The ones getting fucked the hardest will be us consumers.

Your whole post kinda ignores the fact they made money just fine previously. The fact prices are still as high as they are on what is settled tech at this point (pice 5 and ddr5 aint new) just screams of them sticking the tip in as they psyop'd you into "new normal" pricing.

I think it's fucked. I opened the old PSU and found scorch marks and melted solder. I hooked up a different PSU that I think is good and not only would the board not power on, the PSU emitted a high pitched whine. I wonder if a short on the board killed the PSU instead of the other way around.

Too bad. It was a decent socket FM2 board that would have made a nice HTPC.

Still got a case for $10.

Its just a matter of what you need really.

>how many ram modules do you need
64GB is prob max for most, and 32GB x 2 is enough to fit in the 2 ram slots.
>how many PCIe slots do you need
Probably 2 is enough for most. 16x for GPU and 8X or 4X for extension.
>how many m.2 slots do you need
3-4 is ideal but 2 is prob fine for most (if not pcie extension can add 4 more slots)

After these considerations, the main consideration is form factor, which you pair with case aesthetics.

Taiwan is where the main fab for TSMC is. TSMC makes chips for literally everyone. Even the chinks and russkies spying and interfering with us. Trump wants to either impose tariffs on them or force them into deals that are advantageous for Americans.

Most UPS units will just pass wall power until it detects an under or over voltage event. Then it will raise or lower the voltage depending. If you bought a line interactive PSU this is what it does.
They don't really do anything to fix "dirty" power unless it's over or under voltage.

Only online UPS units do anything to deliver clean power all the time.

There might be fitment issues with thicker rads but there's nothing stopping you in principal. By the way, if you're doing this because of the whole tube orientation thing, you don't need to worry about that on a custom loop - proper reservoir placement will take care of it.

i have this shitbox:
B550-PLUS
16GB RAM
RYZEN 5 3600

I want to upgrade the GPU, i play in 1080p and usually i upgrade every 5+ years, im thinking either the 3060 12gb or the 4060 16gb

Those are about as strong as I'd go without a CPU upgrade. Could maybe swing a 4070 if you were to add a 5600(X) or up to a 4080(S) with a 5*00X3D. Not that you should on 1080p but it's good to know.

So for a future upgrade path, the 4070 is preferable? And i if i had to choose the 3060 or 4060, whats the best value in the long run?

Shit that they bought specifically for BF and marked up for a month or two.

>>103120318
Consensus is that the best upgrade path for AM4 users is a 5700X3D plus whatever card fits the budget and performance requirements. If that's too much then maybe a (used) 5600 plus some card /up to/ a 4070. As mentioned, without a CPU upgrade the card ceiling will be in the 3060-4060Ti range.

>if I had to choose the 3060 or 4060...
It's nuanced. The 3060 has more VRAM (there is no 16GB 4060) but the 4060 gets frame gen. If you want to be technical about it, choose based on what games you play. If neither feature matters to you then I'd say to take the 4060 because it's newer. More support for driver updates and, FWIW, it's a lot more efficient.

The proper question to ask is how much money are you willing to throw at this thing?
>>
>>103120213
It does happen when corporations are trying to shore up losses and appeal to the public. For example, they stop price gouging in order to make the politicians with policies they support look good. It's not the trickle down from the rich that I'm talking about, at least not in the sense of Reagonomics. This is the balance I was talking about. It's just risk vs. reward. The real question is if you think the corporations and ultrarich will go after the short term profit gains over making their posterboy look good or not.

My budget is around 400 €. I dont think i will upgrade the cpu soon, and i dont play graphically demanding games often, and that is why i managed with a shitty GPU for so long. But now i want to be at least able to play the latest stuff, even if not maxed, if i want. I was torn among the 3060 and the 4060 because as you was sayng, the 4060 is newer and prolly more longeve at this point, but i dont know if it is sensed to wait for the 5k series and see how much the prices will drop, if they do.

Not fully optimized but pretty close. Have 80€ left in there for some minor upgrades - maybe a better mobo/cooler/case but that's up to you.
If you can reuse some components you could maybe go up a card tier. Case and cooler should be fine, and the SSD if it's 1TB+, but I'd be slightly wary of the PSU at that age.

>>103120431
I think you'd want a better CPU for the latest AAA games. They got a lot more demanding on that side when the new console gen released. Something like a used 5600+3060 should be possible at €400 depending on local market conditions. Since you're comfortable with AMD cards you ought to check prices on the 6700/7600/XT too. AMD are usually better value at the low-end.

is this a result of the conspiracy of cpu benchmarkers who only ever do 1080p "to showcase differences" more visibly

they really need to move onto 1440p testing so people can actually go "I should buy the cheapest cpu on that list that gives me reasonable performance if I own a 4090"

They should actually.
Otherwise their benchmarks don't say much except some imaginary best case scenario.
>>
>>103120559
reviewers do 1440p testing too
the point of CPU reviews is relative comparisons, not for finding out how much FPS you're going to get in a particular game
there's far too many variables affecting that (GPU model, GPU manufacturer, driver version, case airflow, etc)

to be fair some of the point is to inform consumers what cpu they oughta buy

Does using 2 identical sets of 2 ram sticks decrease the performance or increase the latency?
Or would they perform the same as if it was a set of 4 sticks?
>>
>>103119876
I'm seeing a lot of these "muh 1080p" posts it's actually hilarious
>>
>>103120596
If you keep all timings and clocks the same, it actually reduces latency because of memory interleaving
In practice, 4 sticks will hinder your max clocks and will reduce your memory bandwidth. You could technically keep similar timings but on ddr5 this isn't really possible as the minimum allowed primary timing is 28 clock cycles
>>
>>103120608
are you ever gonna post like, a chart, that showcases how much fps you get going from 5700x3d to 9800x3d on 4070 at 1440p or are you going to just keep quietly giggling to yourself?

It is underpriced relative to supply. If it was properly priced the stock would flow but there would be no money in scalping.

it's not gonna help in gaming because the game stays on CCD1
maybe if AMD introduced something similar to intel APO they could move some utility threads to CCD2 and get performance gains
i expect it to clock to at least 5.5-5.7 GHz, which will put it at the top of the charts, but there will be no real world difference

>>103120780
scalping is profitable at pretty much any price as far as computer parts are concerned, there will always be someone who's got the money to buy one or two extra components and sell them for double the price, and there will always be someone desperate enough to buy them
it's less underpriced and more understocked
>>
>>103120774
Well for one you probably shouldn't be spending 200$ on a case but you are building a 3k PC so you are already too far off from a reasonable use of your money.
>>
>>103120779
I think there is potential to leverage the cache on the "unused" CCD with software integration. Use it as "L4" across the IF, for example. I don't actually want them to try that though, except maybe as a technical exercise, because custom software integration is a massive pain for the end user. Just avoiding XBGB is enough of an improvement.

>PR teams
Financial analysts in PR teams are also useful for calculating blowback, but you're likely correct and Public Relations isn't the proper field to list for this stratagem.
However, it is why Reagonomics worked in the first place, or the bailouts (under bush, obama et al) reconsolidated wealth into the upper echelons. Just look at gas prices per president; they do it every cycle. "Muh oppression" is feeds liberal boners to fight for immigration, which brings stagnant wages, low trust society for division to keep focus on anything other than the wealth transfer, lower quality of life as distributed through increased costs of living. Another example would be when Dems get too brazen for their econonic policies like during the Occupy Movement, they get punished. so they distract this with more even more oppressed minorities (LGBTQIA+) as a distraction. Or when Dems, try to get cocky in tax policies etc switch with a Republican that opposes those things while having those immigrant voters and previously oppressed swear off their allegiance with a betrayal vote, and bring prices down so more wealth consolidation and a bigger piece of the pie can be gained for the 1%. It's modus operandi for the uniparty at this point. Even now, they're pushing only the "educated" population votes for Dems to keep the segments of the population firmly planted in their tribalist positions, thus preventing any unionization efforts because it shuns the working class by design.
All in all, the division of the population is firmly in place to be harvested with greater wealth going to the top wealth holders, and their winning the war because the tribalist division of issues plays into the duality strategy of picking what you want the media to focus on and because the tribalists within the divisions can't see the war while it's raging.

>>103120596
2 sticks are almost always better, and empty dimm slots can even cause problems sometimes.
Ram has pretty great resell value so most of the time selling your old set makes more sense that getting another pair to add to it.
It also saves you the money from getting a 4 slot mobo and lowers power consumption.
>>
>>103120789
>it's less underpriced and more understocked
You're getting there. It's /either/ underpriced /or/ understocked. Two sides of the same coin.
At present, demand for the product exceeds local supply which creates an arbitrage opportunity (which we call scalping). If the MSRP was at at the equilibrium price then no such opportunity would exist in the main. Alternatively, if supply was sufficient to meet demand then the equilibrium price would be lower (with a soft floor at MSRP).

If you're not into manual memory overclocking, stay away from 4 sticks. 2 sticks of high density 2x32gb or 2x48gb memory will be much easier to run and will have the interleaving benefit of 4 sticks while being able to run at 6000mhz+ without stability problems

I don't need it to run at higher than 6000 since 9800x3d doesn't scale that way

you can force 1:1 mode at any mhz above 6000. golden samples can run 6600 at 1:1 while a 99% of am5 ryzens can do 6200 at 1:1.
so a safe justwerks kit would be 6000cl30
