    Wait is the popup that infrequenty shows up the only thing that was implemented? If so, this doesn't really change anything

    A 5800X is only one generation old and an absolutely fine cpu.
     
    Few questions.
     
    What's your budget? 
    What's your resolution? 
    What's the rest of your specs ( PSU , RAM,  SSD etc?

    5800x will be able to handle all games you throw at it with even the rtx 4070ti and maybe 4080. for 1080p, you wouldnt benefit much more then a 4060ti if your trying to buy new, but i would buy a used 3080 for maybe 350-370 dollars with enough patience. or you could just do buy it now for like 400 dollars. the 3080 will handle all 1440p as well if you were to upgrade your monitor.

    Upgrading the GPU will cause a BAD bottleneck? WTF...?
    No, that CPU can handle a much more powerful GPU without introducing much of a CPU bottleneck.
     
    Right now, between the CPU and GPU, the 5700XT is the "weaker" between the two.
    Get a 7900XT / XTX even, and the 5800X will do fine. 
     
    I've got a system running a 5800X + RTX 3060Ti (got it during the peak of GPU shortage).
    I'll eventually get a RTX 4070 / 4070Ti or 4080 for it. 1440p resolution.

    A GPU upgrade will likely make more sense than a CPU upgrade.

    Just repeat it manually. Same with Time Spy. If you really need a looper then try MSI Kombustor.

    The performance option is probably the better pick, and just run it a couple of times on repeat. Superposition is a very long benchmark, so that should do enough of a stress test for most situations.

    Don't use Heaven for stress testing. It's a 14 year old benchmark that can't properly stress modern hardware. Go for Superposition or some other test made in more recent times, and mess around with settings. I've seen it before where cards will crash at low settings and will run fine at high and vice versa, so it's worth checking both.

    You should be able to update the BIOS straight to the latest version without issues. Double check though in reading the release notes that it doesn't specify a specific BIOS version has to be installed prior to updating. Also, only install non-Beta BIOS updates as Beta BIOSs can be buggy.

    NY Times liked this one in a review as a decent one that’s not too expensive. I have a TP-Link PCIe adapter in one of my case-swapped builds and it’s quite good, it’s a reliable brand.

    Theminecraftaddict555 reacted to Kisai in Lofi Girl live stream taken down after abusive copyright claim   
    People are always going to conflate the two, because the "copyright takedown" is the legal process, where as "claims" are something Youtube does without a legal justification. Just like eBay's VeRO system.
     
    Basically the point of a DMCA or VeRO claim on eBay is to take the thing down and punish the uploader under the assumption it was a malicious (eg pirate/bootleg) item. Unfortunately these get stretched into some real absurdities.
     
    A claim, is handled internally, and is usually a not something reported by the copyright holder, it's reported by internal algorithms, or users of the site who do not have a copyright stake in the video.  This is why humans can't really do this, because humans will use their judgement on things they know nothing about. People will write novels about why something violates someone elses copyright, but because the person reviewing it has no understanding of the subject, they won't see it, or won't care.
     
    Hence "copyright claims" without necessarily being "copyright violations"
     
    Honestly, the whole thing is a mess, and how it should have always worked is a copyright escrow system, where the "claims" can't just automatically take revenue from videos, they have to negotiate. 
    eg:
    - designate a % of the total video based on the amount of use of the copyrighted material. 
    or
    - designate an all-or-nothing (Eg music videos, react videos) stake, where the copyright claim is based on the subject material (eg a LP of a story game might be "claim for all", but a highlight video with the player narrating would not) for videos where it's possible that the video acts as a substitution for their own.
     
    Both stake holders must negotiate within a reasonable time (eg 14 days,) or no revenue will be released to either party, it will remain withheld, collecting interest until an agreement is reached or automatic rules kick in. 
     
    - If more than one rights owner makes a claim, then the rights owners must designate which global region they are making the claim for. If two or more make claims for "global" then they must negotiate among themselves before the "rights owner" revenue is released.
     
    Automatic rules would be like:
    - determine the % of the video containing each claim, minus dead air
    - determine the context of the video from auto-caption/uploaded captions, chapters, etc (no captions = possibly a low-effort video, certain keywords trigger brand-safety flags to demonetize )
    - determine the engagement volatility of the content. If it appears to be primarily negative engagement, demonetize the video. If there are high levels of profanity or sexual language, also demonetize the video.
     
    It's within the "claimed" rights owner's best interests to not let the automatic rules kick in, because it could result in the video being demonetized entirely. If they do not want their content being used on, say, a politically charged video, or a hate video, then they should just straight up go for the DMCA instead.

    PBO on its own isn't going to help temperatures without tweaking, if anything they'll get worse as you're allowing the system to use more power. 
     
    The key to lower temps is the Curve Optimizer.
