@CWP I think i have it working ill update if it doesn't. Cheers!

When a cpu/gpu fails to obtain a new work unit it ends up waiting a set amount of time. Each consecutive failure to obtain a new unit causes the time to increase. However this time increases at ridiculous rate by the 12th failed attempt it is waiting a couple hours.This leaves the client idle in some cases for multiple hours. A quick trick to get the attempts back down to a reasonable time is to pause then fold again. This resets the timer and counter and if it fails it will wait 2 minutes then some amount more ect. Manually this isn't a problem as noticing if the gpu is not running at full tilt is easy, just listen to the fans spin. The problem lies in when you go to sleep and it might end up idling for some hours because it was unable to get a work unit for 20 minutes. I was wondering if someone has made a macro/(compiled code with better timer) to pause and fold if there have been say X amount of failed attempts.

ITS OVER @Cysero IM GAINING ON YOU (it gets hot at night with my pc amiright or what?)

Hey i also might be interested in joining i just got byoc tickets.

Do you need a BYOC ticket to participate in the tournaments that are going to be hosted? Just wondering so i can choose to buy a BYOC ticket from people on the forum or just the 2 day pass.

yikes if there's a life time warranty the sticks or any warrently i would take it. The stick with the worst timing and frequency would be the best you could achieve, so if you got a 3000 stick you wouldn't be able to run them at 3000 because of your current stick unless you made the timings higher for all them.

You dont nessarly need to get the same kit, The only problem is that you might not be able to reach the same timings if you buy another 3000MHz kit (unless they are the same timmings). Im not sure how the xmp will handle different and you might have to set trimmings and speed manually.

will you ever be able to obtain more money in the future? because currently getting more money and then using it to get a better solution since you should be able to re use your ram, power supply case. The problem is that you have 2 components that are kinda balanced and they are very cheap. Cheap enough that upgrading one part or the other wont make to much of a difference. If you upgrade your GPU it might be better at higher resolutions but then you will still have bad fps in actual fights or game play. If you upgrade your CPU you will get better more stable fps but only enough to the bottleneck your gpu and you will remain at lower resolutions. @star_pilot475 response is probably the best option. If you can get more money later on it would probably benefit you to upgrade your gpu first and rx 580 is a good pick.

Thats for intel and AMD just hasen't been relevant for 10 years until ryzen.

oh no uhhh uhhhh uhhhhhhh you only real option unless you have ram, case, graphics card, or more laying around your going to only be able to squeek by with like either a athlon or a 2200g/2400g <= better than athlon.

Which video editing software? It depends.

2600k it can overclock probably just as well as 2700k. Not worth the extra 10 for 2700k.

For the B450 board you might have too update the bios on it for the 3600 which will require having a AM4 socket chip e.g. (1000 series 2000 series ryzen based athlons) . Alternatively when you buy the chip you can fill out the AMD form for them to send you a CPU (that you have to send back) to update your bios. If you go the ryzen 2700 route you wont need to update your bios.

hey i own a t3600 and there a clear cmos pins right next to the 24 pin power connector idk know if that will work but try that and if you didnt already know that dell uses a proprietary 24 pin for the board so normal powersupplys dont work unless you rewire the psu or have a adapter. When i first got the t3600 to launch it took like 3 minutes i think so keep that in mind.
