Well okay? just because you won't overclock it it does not turn it locked, the card is unlocked, whether you overclock or not is up to you, there is no rocket science here.

Meh.. I'll wait for the 4K model. 900p is just not enough.

Probably that one. There are older stuff before Max's time:
 

You may be thinking of clips taken for Camera reviews as well
This one may have the clip you're thinking of with Max looking at the sky.
 

you just added more months onto the release date you fool 

the only people with brain damage are the people who wrote this paper cannot find any place this has been peer reviewed though i'll keep looking

its fun 

To the surprise of no one.

I waiting for the massive disappointment this is going to be. I love all the people that are hyped. This is going to be like election night for Hillary voters.

In other news LG comes out with new screen that is a incher larger than Samsung's

OP I'm not trying to be offensive or sarcastic, but if you cant tell the difference between those two setups, it may be time to save some money by buying a console.

The fact that AMD tried to keep the public excited by announcing the FE over the gaming variant, is, in my opinion, highly indicative that gaming Vega won't be here anytime soon.

Looks decent actually. 

I don't know why there's no 1600X & 1500X benchmarks thread but let's make one!
 
I won't describe what those CPUs are, I think all of us know it... For clarity:
Ryzen R5 1500X - 4 Cores / 8 Threads, 3,5GHz Base / 3,7GHz Boost clocks, 189$ MSRP
Ryzen R5 1600X - 6 Cores / 12 Threads, 3,6GHz Base / 4,0GHz Boost clocks, 249$ MSRP
 
Techpowerup released reviews of both of those, full links:
1600X : https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/Ryzen_5_1600X/
1500X : https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/Ryzen_5_1500X/
 
 
Taught by my previous thread with 1800X benchmarks, I'll just get straight to the point, GAMING!
 
Battlefield 1:
Civilization VI:
Hitman:
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided:
Rise of the Tomb Raider:
Fallout 4:
The Witcher 3:
Sniper Elite 4:
 
 
And very interesting results here with Minimum FPS charts:
There are games in which the R5 lineup offers A LOT better minimum framerates compared to the competition, however there are games in which it isn't as good:
 
And now, performance summary at different resolutions:
CPU Tests:

1080p:

1440p:

4K:

 
TPU's opinion:
 
Personal opinion:
Value for money of those CPUs is just incredible. Judging from this review, i5s are a terrible purchase at their current prices right now...
I agree with everything quoted right above.
 
This is what most people have been waiting for, not the R7 lineup.
 
Sadly, platform setup issues are still present and configuring an AM4 platform properly is still too complicated for what it should be...
 
P.S. Post other benchmarks here as well! I will keep the original post updated.

Yeah, add 20$ more and get the 1600.

Ok, thanks!

JESUS. I can't keep it in my pants like this.

Nor should anyone care. Some wealthy people bought shares from some other wealthy people. As if you could know the identity of the share holders of publicly traded companies.
 
People attaching flags to companies are just delusional.

Any GTX 1070 will work. Just keep in mind if the clocks are different between them they will run at the slower speed. This can usually be fixed by overclocking the slower one to match the faster one.  

I really want to know how Samsung will recover from this kind of bad press.
 
I personally will just dump Samsung Note 7 name and probably say it Note 7+ or Note 7 Pro, just to differentiate something with highly explosive with something normal.

I have to sleep so I'm going to keep this short and concise.
 
I'm 23, and I've played ALOT of video games, trust me. I've played the beta for about 4 hours now and it is hands down, the best multiplayer video game I have ever played.
 
Here's a list of some things that really stood out to me:
 
- The WWI theme is incredibly refreshing and very authetntic. No lock on weapons - i love it. A return to ironsights and a brand new set of (very) interesting weapons and vehicles to play with
- Vehicles have incredibly high skill cap (unlike BF4). Multiple seats. Planes all shoot dummy bombs. No autoamtic lock on weapons
- Vehicles are actually SCARY, as they should be. Gone are the days of peaking round corners, firing your rocket, and hiding again. 
- Engine is incredibly well optimized. One of the best looking video games this year - Maxed out 3440x1440 avg 85fps with SMAA HIGH.
- Sound design is ridiculous. If you think DICE's previous games had good sound design, you're in for a bloody treat.
- Exit/ enter vehicle animations are seamless. Even switching between seats whilst you're already in a vehicle has animations, and they're good. 
- 3D spotting, shooting at doritos through smoke and wallhacks are all GONE. They exist to the minimum extent possible and this was my biggest complaint in perious Battelfields. In BF4, I never actually felt like I had to look for targets and aim, all I did was shoot at triangles. The triangles this time round are very short and tiny. Awesome stuff
- Physics are unreal. Evasive vehicle smoke and gas grenades shoot out like real particles giving a real sense of decompression (especially the gas grenades)
- Vehicles have modular destruction. Incredible. You can see your wing slowly chip away when you're getting shot at.
- Horses fit seamlessly into the game. I was worried they'd be a useless gimmick but thats absolutely not the case.
- Soldiers speak the correct language - really immersive voice acting. 
- The best gunplay in a video game, EVER. Each weapon has some serious kick and feel "chunky" when you shoot them.

Judging by the OP's posts, he's an immature little baby.
 
Don't know what game you've been playing. Its one of the best games I've ever played.
 
But hey, its 2016, gotta bxtch about something right?

I'm the OP's friend. He forgot to mention that he's also replaced the original RAM witha  complete new kit. 
He's also reinstalled windows separately on both the SSD and then again on the HDD.
 
Same problem.
 
He literally has a brand new computer now since he's replaced everything.

Thanks guys, I too think its most likely the mobo.
