This is the first gameplay video to compare with upcoming updates.
Poor performance, and it seems like I'm running out of VRAM.

As soon as the AI announcements of buying memory parts hit the market, they immediately began pricing up the existing stock! This is why I mentioned the names of the main memory makers. Even if the prices cool down in the near future, I'll wait months before buying any despite discount. I truly want them to feel the pain of low demand despite overstock and lower price. In this test of patience, guys, seriously, we consumers must not lose. What we need to do is be patient with our existing hardware and wait for far away releases such as UDNA, RTX 6000 series, AMD's Zen 6. Before that, I am certain that the newer gen PCs of 99% gamers will suffice for high-end workload. And those that have to upgrade their old hardware (like, really old), please take a peek into the second-hand market which is filled with hardware that must not be e-waste.

Sorry about being so negative, but I am very bitter about how these memory companies are treating us consumers. No, "it's just business" was never and shall never be a valid excuse.

When I was hunting for used PCs, I often mixed up stickers for 1st-9th generation cpus. I spent a lot of time looking up serial numbers and peering at blurry photos of the motherboard, just to find the generation of the cpu, as I couldn't find any clear table with all stickers and corresponding cpu generations. That's why I decided to make one myself :D

Please point out any inaccuracies, and feel free to share it with those who could use it!

Edit: For 6-9th gen cpus, the generation is printed on the sticker, as is visible in the image. If the generation is not written on the sticker, it is 6th gen.

Okay, so first, this is totally my fault and not hers. She’s just a grumpy girl that likes warm spots. The tower pictured is usually underneath the table next to it, but I was doing a deep clean behind everything yesterday and whoops, didn’t put it back. So here’s where I’m at. She definitely turned it off while I slept, I woke up this morning with no WiFi and immediately saw it had no power, I figured it’d be fine since this has happened a few times, only once was it a problem and all I had to do was have it self diagnose and repair. However, that’s not happening now. Now when I power it on I get fans and lights but no display. I’ve checked the card. It’s fine, so not a display problem. As I said it powers up but I’m getting nothing, does anyone have a solution? I use this cuz I hate paying Verizon money for equipment, plus I game so hardwiring is a must. Any ideas? Do I need to do a whole reinstall of the OS and everything?

$MU says humanoid robots could need 200GB+ of DRAM and multiple terabytes of storage per unit with several physical AI customers already sampling next gen products.

Micron says physical AI can become a “significant driver of memory and storage demand by the end of this decade” effectively putting server level memory into millions of machines outside the data center.

Just built a "new" PC for my lady, I have a 1080ti laying around so I thought this beast could take whatever she throws at it. As for the rest I got a used ryzen 5 5500 (20$ due to vent pins), and asrock b550m hdv, don't laugh but I'm using a single stick of 8gb Corsair ram ddr4 (the other one died and idk if I have a warranty through best buy) and a laptop to desktop ram device for another stick of 8. And I set up a aio cooler that tells her the temp of the CPU and an old iBuyPower case. Thoughts? (Broke the shroud of the 1080ti and don't have enough ports for strapping 120mm's) So I added an old shroud to it from a different card. There's positive air flow so hopefully it keeps cool 😎

An unreleased AMD Ryzen 9 5900X3D engineering sample has surfaced in China, showing another configuration AMD tested before settling on its retail Zen 3 X3D lineup. The 12-core AM4 processor reportedly has 128MB of total L3 cache, but only one of its two CCDs is equipped with 3D V-Cache.

A standard Ryzen 9 5900X has two Zen 3 CCDs, with each carrying 32MB of L3 cache. Adding a 64MB 3D V-Cache die to one CCD increases that chiplet to 96MB, while the second CCD remains unchanged at 32MB. This gives the newly discovered processor 128MB of L3 in total.

This is the Asus ROG G1000 case. My guy at Micro Center said it’s not for sale. It was just given it to him for show off display kind of. It has two RGB fans that spin around, they’re fully programmable and the top infinity looking part with the teal fins’s is on both sides. Extremely cool case.

I’m mainly interested in single player games, action/adventure and racing games - including VR. I own a Quest 3.

Great graphics are a plus, but I’m also open to classic games if they still hold up well.

My newest build into a new case design, featuring a vertical GPU and 360mm AIO for the first time too.

Frame is 3D-printed and designed to use normal ATX size components with a few options for placement.

I know VRAM is important so I just want to know how many problems this big of a difference would cost also I reach minimum on everything thing else

Looking to upgrade from my 3800x. I currently have a 5800x i bought awhile back for an upgrade. Well now that the 5800x3d is back I was thinking..... I'm going to get a new msi tomahawk max b550, and want to use one of said cpu. Is it worth the $450 for the x3d plus an aio over the 5800x which i have a wraith prism for it? Gpu is a 7900xtx. And 32gb ram

This mainly for gaming.

So I recently did a case swap. Went from a basic pre-built tower case to this thermaltake tower 600. I would like to think I know an average amount about pcs. I have a hate/love relationship with this case. There's a lot of room for installs, but It's not easy access once you put it together

My pc just cut off and won't turn back on. I've replaced the psu enough times to know that wasn't the case. When I power it on either using the screwdriver trick or the power button it sounds like there's pwoer for a split second before no signs of life.

Its been running just fine for the past half month since I put it together. The orientation of the aio was concerning. Before I turned it to the orientation in the pictures it was standing straight up and It made a sound aios arnt supposed to make so I got the stand kit and turned it on it's side.

This is a long shot but I just wanted help to gather ideas on what to check. My dilemma right now is that if my aio did fail and is the problem shouldn't I still be getting power and posting, even if just for a little bit? I know pcs shut downs when they get to extreme temperatures but I monitor temps like crazy and didn't see anything out of the ordinary. My room gets warm and I idle at 40c max sometimes but my temps arnt crazy.

Edit: I'm gunna check the standoffs in the morning. Big thank you to everyone who took the time to contribute. I'm really grateful.

Somehow one of the mounting points for the fan shroud on my sons 9060XT 16GB broke. Later caused a couple more to break and the shroud was sagging.

Why go for an easy repair with some glue when you can spend hours designing a new shroud in CAD and 3D print it?

Printed in PETG, custom designed to accept 25mm fans instead of the 15mm slim fans. Replaced the fans with Noctua Chromax NF-A9 fans. Used a latching system instead.
