Spectrez

I'm a little bit confused, when you bleed the system (i.e. let the air accumulate in the reservoir) are you opening the system and filling it with more coolant? The system should be almost fully filled with liquid and closed when you run it.
 
In other words, a correctly bled system should have no air in it at all. Any new air indicates you haven't bled the system correctly, or a leak.

Not sure how my comment is wrong by that logic?

Yep, and an AMD Fanboy, you see his signature is red so you know, he is an AMD Fanboy. Such a good argument man, amazing! /s
So what? EPYC is just superglued 1800Xs, does this mean that it sucks?
So what? I don't see how that affects anything.....
AMD also doesn't support PCIe 4.0, what the heck are you even talking about?
And does AMD support it? Nope. And FYI, this means that it was not rushed, because it shows that the CPU was in the works for quite some time, if it was rushed, then it would probably support PCIe 4.0 because it would have been a new design.
So what? You keep repeating that... Why? How does that affect anything?
Side effects of watching too many "X299 sucks" videos, wait for reviews and we will see if that holds true or not.
And you didn't mention any negatives nor did you say why X299 is a cash grab, so please, if you are going to respond, I want you to list all those negatives you're talking about.

Nice performance boost thats for sure. But damn that power consumption.
 
I wonder if the temps are still under NDA

That glue seems super close to the surface components aswell... 

having done 2 delids on the 7700k i follow a simple rule.
 
if you cant afford two - you cant afford to delid especially with these darn europe prices

i guess i could just glue it back together and be like  ¯\_(ツ)_/¯  even tho its douchy af 

Could it be where the store the AVX goodness?  
 
You know I'm just having too much fun now @MageTank.

you should make a project out of it and slice one in half, idd watch dat video

Soo maybe now can game devs use more than 2 or 4 cores

Man if i had 500USD to cool a room idd feel wealthy  
 
could you share some info on your specs?

This is a good thing. Why are people comparing that they are releasing patches which could prevent malware outbreaks? Even if you think Windows XP is old and should be abandoned, the fact is they machines are still out there running XP. Those machines won't get updated just because Microsoft stop giving out updates, that has already been proven. So why keep patches which are already developed to themselves. 
 
It's like having the cure for AIDS, but keeping it secret because "people need to learn to have safe sex. They won't learn if I give them the cure". 

if you are using a stock cooler i suspect this to be perfectly acceptable

these processors are rated for 105C before shutting down, stock cooler runs it at 75c, 100% load, and that's what intel calls 'safe' - so if the OEM says it's safe, it's safe in my book. 
 
 

Cryorig H7, H5, R1
Which Deepcool?
Some stuff from Phanteks is fine.

Another secret conference that the general public cannot see, nor can you prove the existence of it. Your tactics have grown stale. Next you will tell me it's obvious, proceed to give me an obscure formula that somehow proves your point (even though it has an infinite number of variables, and makes zero sense) then proclaim that I will see it in due time (which inevitably ends with me being right the entire time, and you avoiding me for months until the next new release comes, and you try again). I've googled "IBM Sydney Conference" and nothing is scheduled for the months of November/December in 2016. Not a single event. Is this super secret event something they wouldn't include alongside the many other conference events on their website?
 
When Kaby finally launches, and it's proven to yield absolutely zero IPC gains (including AVX2, which you magically think will improve), be ready to admit you were wrong. Or do as you normally do, and pretend you "won" every argument ever presented against you. 

what model is the PSU? and how old is it.
 
and is there a different 8 pin you can try?

Hold on...
 
Are you still transfering your i7-4790k? with the same part list? because then youll have a compatibility issue with the motherboard you chose.
 
the Z170 chipset has a LGA1151 socket and your i7-4790k is only compatible with the LGA1150 socket.

Nvidia better fast track Volta because the jig is up on their architectural stubbornness, these are early days for Vulkan and DX12 but that single shader pipeline on Pascal isn't doing them any favours compared to AMD's 8.
 
Unfortunately a lot of people already blindly bought into Pascal day 1 and Nvidia can escape immediate punishment. But hopefully it translates into lost trust next generation.
 
And it doesn't help AMD that there isn't a fresh high-end card from them yet. RX 480 is a cool little David vs Goliath scenario but we need Vega to really show how much better the design choices AMD are making are.

And we should as consumers focus on what gets us better performance for our money.
Directx 12 and Vulkan is far superior, and we should be worried of the possibility that Nvidia might not be directly supporting the changes that comes with these new API's. 

Aslong as PGA isnt holding the cpu back then good on them.
i personally dont like the tiny pins on LGA.
 
Also to people saying the 6950x is a consumer CPU - simply crazy

You guys DO know that the only reason Intel switched to LGA was to shunt the bent-pin RMAs onto motherboard partners, right? Don't twist this into some backwards "modernity" argument.

As enderman pointed out - other then looking super tacky it also creates the need for more pointless software
