>>108601545I am never using any cpu that has more than 70W TDP. Intel-telaviv can keep their 300W garbage.

>>108601649PC building fomo sure is a sad feeling to have. If the timeline was a year or two ahead of the current schedule I would have probably seriously considered having my big upgrade be a return to Intel, especially if the cost-efficient Arrow Lake Refresh chips also happened. But having a 9800x3d means I will likely be stuck with this for the next decade.Also the rectangle IHS is more aesthetic than the jigsaw square.

>>108602371You've posted in the troll thread. The only person here is the faggot OP self bumpinh every couple hours.Come to the real thread below and ask here:>>108601483>>108601483>>108601483
>>108602371looks fine overall, definitely a computer. As I'm sure you know the single 16gb stick will work for now if that's what you have to do to save some money but you really want more.If you can get a 7600x for like -100 euro monies you can get some money back there, going to a 9700 isn't going to make a huge difference in video gaymes at 1440p.
>108602434And here we see the kind of dogshit no nuance advice you can expect from the fake troll njudea intelaviv pc building general. What CPU he needs depends entirely on what kind of games he wants to play. If you want to play competitive PVP games like CS at high refresh rate with good frame pacing there is a case to be made he should stretch his budget and get a 9800x3d which is basically mandatory for these games.

AMD is gonna get bLLCd hard.Also >>108601545Zen6 doesn't support AVX10.2 and APX
>>108602474kysStay on your side of the fence you disgusting animal
>>108602500>4:3 resolution that only oldheads play anymore>average fps only no 1% lows or 0.1% lows which is what really matters and is hard to get good on cs2 that has bad frame pacing issuesWhat the fuck is this supposed to prove retard besides that you don't know anything?
>>108602371>Kingston FURY Beast 16 GB (1 x 16 GB)Unless you have plans to buy another soon I would just get a 2x8 kit
>>108602545You'd never be able to notice those differences in the lows without a framerate counter
>108602574>Consistent frame delivery doesn't matter for competitive FPSThis is a new low even for this general. Even DLSS schizo had a rhyme and a reason to his madness. You're genuinely one of the most ignorant posters I've seen here yet. I know for a fact you're a 30 YO+ millenial that just plays single player games all day. Anyone else who plays multiplayer fps regularly would call you a fucking moron too.
Thanks, yes I will install a second stick in the near future.
