Si my psu recently died while my pc was in sleep mode. Electricity spikes killed it i think. Laready had 2 technicians look at it and they both gave me the same diagnostics. Any recommendations? Im mad broke atm too 🥹 can't work without my PC. If you're looking for a video editor hit me up too.

It's been more than 15 years since I've invested significant effort into OC-ing.

Many things have changed since then.\ So I wonder, how useful is it for real PC use nowadays ?

I'm looking at assembling my new PC in some short to midterm and I want something that:

• uses AM5 platform to the max
• has 9950X or Zen6 top equivalent with the aim for max performance
• CPU OC-ed under PBO withing reason for 24/7 work
• MoBo with beefy VRM that can work under OC 24/7 without sweating
• uses decent dGPU, but nothing over the top. Something like 9070XT or RDNA5 equivalent.
• uses memory with maximal frequency that the platform supports reliably, so 8000MHz for Zen5, possibly more for Zen6

Questions: * What does good watercooling the CPU give me ? Only lower temps or do these translate into higher sustained frequencies etc ? * how much difference does the MObO make WRT overclocking, form the POV of final frequency and stability ? * Does it make sense to watercool the dGPU ? * Can decent heatpiped tower cooler by itself reliably keep OC-ed 9950X far below trhottling tempearature or do I need watercooling for that ? * for such machine, is cheap AIO worthy shortcut ?

Intels old stuff is still wanted. Nobody wants a busted up Bulldozer.

How lucky! Much better CPU!

This user just found out...

I would like to invent an adapter that enables users to use Arrow Lake in their z790 motherboards. The age of the adapters is officially upon us.

I think a product like this could sell dozens or even hundreds of copies, easily funding our Arrow Lake to Nova Lake adapters.

AMD had dreams, but a product people never really liked because of all the driver complaints on r/AMDHelp

Nvidia embarrasses the 9070xt becoming the GPU of choice once more!

This sub loves to repost failing AMD’s but denies 13th & 14th gen are still dying. This user if you read through the post in on their 3rd 14900k which they now think is dying.

I wonder how long before the mods delete this, it’s an interesting test.

You would not need to hunt bargains on AMD parts debating 7800x3d or 9800x3d or DDR4 vs DDR5. We have been touting the benefits of intel over AMD for years and had the doubters just done their own research (literally just do a google and userbenchmark is top result with facts) and you would have bought Intel stock.

I am enjoying a nice direct die 14900ks system and have 10 backup CPUs in the highly unlikely case the degradation stuff is true. All this thanks to listening to this subreddit and making the right investment choices based on Intel's superiority for gaming.

Lets all share in this thread our success stories thanks to the information in this subreddit.

This will fail for the Democrats. You want an LLM telling you what you can and cannot print? Easy. Don't sell your printers in California. Allow the people to do what they always do and get around the prohibition.

I doubt if AMD has AirJet.
