are b550 and b560 any good my friends had bad exp with msi boards

2x HyperX Fury Black 8 GB CL15 DIMM DDR4 2400 MT/s Internal Memory (HX424C15FB2/8)

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: GTA V, RDR2, CyberPunk etc, Neo4j, tensorflow jobs(large jobs on cloud only some testing done on local), docker etc (these ones very occasional use mainly gamming). Current setup: CPU: Intel core i5 6600, RAM: 2x HyperX Fury Black 8 GB CL15 DIMM DDR4 2400 MT/s Internal Memory (HX424C15FB2/8) GPU: GTX 970 PSU: Corsair VS Series VS450 - 450 Watt SMPS MOBO: Asus Z170-Deluxe - LGA1151 for 6th Generation Processor (DDR4 upto 3400MHz, USB 3.1, Intel Z170 Chipset) Cooler: Cooler Master Master Liquid ML240L RGB All-in-one Liquid CPU Cooler with Dual Chamber Pump Latest Intel/AMD Support Planned: CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 RAM: keep same GPU: gtx 3070 (any other recommendations in 3k i am fine with barring above 3070 ) PSU: I think will need to upgrade it not sure. MOBO: ASUS TUF Gaming X570-Plus Ps. Monitor Samsung 590d 4k.

Ok ,so update ram was one of the bottleneck as its now using +8gb while playing game although when using with default setting stuttering still occurs but way less also when i changed "set affinity " to only 2 processors all stuttering was gone but at expense of FPS.So , now i can play on 2560x res at med settings with 30-45 fps and 0 stutters. Conclusion: Rockstar needs to optimize their game better for CPU and GPU usage and this game req 8+ gb ram in order to fix stuttering.

i agree with @George. and @borlosky. Tomorrow i will get my ram sticks and let you guys know what the status on that but i too think game being badly optimized is the issue and ram wouldn't make a difference. ps i hope its the ram so i can atleast play the game.

On RD2 GPU maxs at 98% all the time except when it stutters it drops to 70-60 and rest all games i can play fine at 2k even at 4k (GTA,Witcher) without lag or stutter

MSI afterburner statistics u can probably guess when i loaded game and when stutter started i ran afterburner before starting game for few min to give you an idea of idle conditions.

I have an AIO by cooler master cooling is not an issue.But i dont think we can overclock 6600 non k version to 4.2 i may be wrong on this one.

Cpu is Maxed out all the time

i will get back to you on this.I have ordered them, they will be here by Saturday.

I having stuttering issue every minute or so while playing Red Dead Redemption 2. I cant seem to figure out why is the GPU behaving this way is it because of ram or CPU, may be some weird optimization on GPU i do know RD2 is a badly optimized game but still wanted to find what resource is the bottleneck here ISSUE: GPU stays at 99% for sometime then suddenly throttles back(that's when lag occurs). Temprature stays around 50-70. I tried following things 1.Change affinity in task manager(CPU) 2.Reduced Graphics(everything on low or turned off) res 1366x720 3.DX-12 4.Driver Update also tried everything on according to this article https://www.ghostarrow.com/red-dead-redemption-2-increase-performance-fps-on-pc I ordered dual channel 16gb ram 2400mhz but i don't think that's gonna fix the issue. My main question here is stuttering solely because of bad optimization of game(even at such low res and graphics) or am i missing something here. Specs: Processor: Intel 6600 Graphics: gtx 970 Ram: 8gb Hyperx fury black

still though they should not be stored on a link(if leaked ) from which everyone can download that file even after you delete it.They very least they should have a authentication before downloading that file.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLjht9uJWgw Oh boy .It is possible that these links are generated only after you ask your data to be generated.If not i hope they fix it soon.

yeah i think waiting till next year is better option

I was thinking of upgrading my Computer to following System Specs. 1. Intell 6600 -> 8600k 2. Graphic as it is gtx 970. 3.Stock cooler -> Cooler Master MASTERLIQUID ML240L RGB Edition Liquid Cooler (MLW-D24M-A20PC-R1) 4.Asus z170 Deluxe ->ASUS ROG Strix Z390-E Gaming Motherboard LGA1151 (Intel 8th 9th Gen) ATX DDR4 DP HDMI M.2 USB 3.1 Gen2 802.11ac Wi-Fi i have a few Questions now: 1. Does this upgrade makes sense. 2. As i was looking to buy a motherboard which is also compatible with 9th gen i came across Asus rog Strix z390 series ,i did not understand the proper differences between all the motherboards(ie. z390 e ,f,i etc.) except for few ports and slots here and there all those seem same to me .So does is matter which one i go for? 3.Any other Motherboard which is better than this and also less than or equal to the same price as mentioned in point 3 of system specification. any other suggestions are also welcome. ps. i am building computer for gaming and few also so that i can run some ml models from time to time(not on too large data sets)
