why would you need a new mobo
7800x3d or 9800x3d would improve gaming experience

7700x3d will have the same boost clock as the 5800x3d, it'll be a fun comparison to pay attention to when it gets released

Just got a 4080 Super, it's been a while since I had something new. I seem to recall reading once that a certain mobo option needs to be toggled for full performance. Anyone know what I'm thinking of?

buddy you're on 4k, you don't need an x3d chip.
but u got a 5090 so i assume u got money to spend so 9800x3d

I'm having a vague hope that PC will survive by being a node or two behind cutting edge AI chips, if memory/storage options free up at least.

Ryzen will survive, being an offshoot of epyc
Geforce will just be bad yields of workstation GPUs and continue on while Radeon, being at single digit marketshare, may die anytime

i think we're just going to be pushed to arm chips and compatibility layers
might be why valve is so honed in on arm recently, might see the writing on the wall with nvidia and amd shafting gamers

you don't understand.
adding compatibility to Linux and arm is just expanding their market.

>Look at 5090 prices
>Mfw

What the fuck, the prices went up like €500 in a week.
These are actually going to cost €5090 or possibly even more before the next gen launches.
Good thing I panic bought mine back in January for a grand cheaper than what they go for now.

Next generation launch is going to be an absolute shitshow.
We're going to see scalping on a level never seen before, because everyone has now been conditioned for years to expect GPU value to just keep on climbing after the launch.
Not to mention so many people have waited to upgrade that there's going to be a huge demand right out of the gate.
Anyone who waits in this market is getting fucked in the ass more and more by the week.

What's the fastest equipment for 4G/LTE cellular internet these days? My Huawei USB modem and TP-Link router are about 11-13 years old and I have my doubts that I'm getting the fastest possible speeds from my location.
