used vega 56？

These temps seems normal to me. You can always replace the stock thermal paste if undervolting doesn't do the trick.
You can also try Intel XTU and change the settings there, if you are not sure about throttlestop.

Everyone: EMUI sucks!
Huawei: So you guys don't like EMUI? Why don't you design something?

Have you heard of taobao?
On taobao you can pay 10 RMB(which is 1.5 USD) for the BL unlock code of any huawei phone.

1.2600 is a better value CPU than 2600x, as 2600 can be manually overclocked to 2600x is capable of, so if you want to save a few bucks, you can do the swap.
2.For mid range card like 1660ti, you should go for the cheapest one out there @280 USD.

MIT statement: http://orgchart.mit.edu/node/27/letters_to_community/new-review-process-elevated-risk-international-proposals
 
Story: MIT announced yesterday that they will not be renewing deals or accepting new ones with Chinese-based tech companies Huawei Technologies and ZTE Corp for the near future, as the US government investigates both companies' alleged sanctions violations. Huawei is currently under investigation after their CFO was arrested in Canada last year at the US's request for committing bank and wire fraud in order to circumvent US sanctions against Iran. Huawei has consistently denied the allegations since the incident. ZTE on the other hand was caught shipping goods from the US to Iran and North Korea, breaking similar laws. They were forced by the US to pay $1.4 billion to continue doing business in the US.
 
MIT's announcement states that they won't be doing any more business with Huawei and ZTE until circumstances change. This could potentially be until the investigation concludes. They also announced stricter rules on in what circumstances they will collaborate with other companies in China/Russia/Saudi Arabia, countries whose interests commonly conflict with those of the US, where MIT is based.
 
Opinion: I want to stress the difference here between the two major allegations against Huawei. The one that's relevant here is that they allegedly tried to circumvent US sanctions against Iran, for which there is some significant evidence showing that this is possible, and for which the investigation is happening. The other is much less formal, but basically a lot of people have suspicions that Huawei or other Chinese companies are or could be spying on the US for the Chinese government. For this one, I totally understand the potential motivation for this, but if I understand correctly, we still haven't really seen any evidence of this happening at all, so it's really more of a "pay close attention and watch out" thing rather than anything we have to react to.

The CEO of Huawei also claimed they they are not giving backdoor to the government, but no body believes that apparently. I guess it's easier to believe what you already believe in the first place.

So recently, a guy on Taobao (Chinese part of Ali-express) claims that he gets his hand on some early samples of zen2, including a few early samples of 3300X and a sample of 3858X.
This guy is selling 3300X for around 200 USD, and 3858X (should be 3850X, it could be a typo on his side) for 1300USD. According to him, the 3300X he is selling has 6 cores/12 threads and 15MB cashe. He also claimed that the base clock speed is 5.0 Ghz, and can be overclocked to 5.8Ghz, but I doubt it. (Could be single-core rather than 6-core).
 
Now this could be a scam, but there are people in Chinese tech community already paid for it, and I'll let you guys know if there's any follow up. This could also indicate that AMD has passed early-sample test stage, and is really for announcement.

Hopefully they do some metal and silver with blue accents. 
 
Because they are Team blue.

Can I say in this case you should have Googled it, because you literally said the product name in your thread ????
 

I can see you are using x99, a HEDT platform.
However HEDT is pretty much dead at this point, so may I ask what is your workload? Gaming only or professional use?

Cherry MX Speeds/Silvers are linear, so they'll feel more like Cherry MX Reds than Blues or Browns.

Sweet. One less thing to uncheck when installing drivers...

If it's too good to be true, then it's too good to be true.
But it's on amazon, right? Means that you can always get a refund if this turns out to be the wrong thing.

You need to try your graphics card on a different system to make sure.

2600 is way better price/performance than the 8400.
 
Plus the 12 threads are nice to have should you decide to pick up streaming at some point.

we don't know exactly what to expect, but with those kind of deals, why not invest in a 1700 right now with a good motherboard and upgrade to it?

Simply using VPN here in China is not illegal, what's illegal is using an unauthorized VPN to make profits. (Same thing about porn in china. Watching is fine, selling is a big no no) This guy uses VPN to make profits according to the police, and that's why he got arrested.
 
I use VPN on a daily basis for gmail/youtube/reddit and twitch, as long as I keep it to my self, I'm not violating any rules/law.
