    That’s what AMD gave everyone apparently.

    Doesn’t change the fact that the 7700K is a 7th gen product, 8700K is 8th gen, 9900K 9th gen. There is a threshold where that degradation accelerates faster and faster. XFR operates past that threshold, and it can only do so safely because it only boosts one to two cores when necessary. For it to be pragmatically possible, it can’t rely on unsafe voltages and be a microscopic sliver of silicon, or rely on extreme cooling. That’s extremely stupid. Everything we’ve seen so far is that Zen 2 can’t do that.

    By that argument, We’re still on 6th gen Core i. AMD called Ryzen 2xxx second generation. 3xxx is third generation. The voltage required is only relatively safe to run one or two cores at most. Running all cores at the voltages XFR runs at takes years upon years off of the life of the chips subjected to that abuse. No, it’s not. Ryzen chips getting to XFR was, at best, iffy. Ryzen 2, you’re pumping unsafe voltages and even then, you’re not going to achieve it often. Probably because on the 9900K, a significant number if chips actually reach that.

    And that is wrong when dealing with Ryzen.

    It does when your argument is that one almost always meets or exceeds single core. And 100MHz better single core in the 4GHz and below range is worth considering over multicore if a workload benefits more from single core. False. Zen+ is second generation Ryzen, and while it is technically possible on a microscopic selection and at voltages that kill chips exponentially faster, it’s not pragmatically possible. You’ve made a false claim. I pray to god no one ever takes any advice you give on processors.
  6. Drak3
    That’s an entire generation where you’re wrong. And Ryzen 1 was still not an “almost always.” Irrelevant to Swatson’s claim. For older Ryzen chips, it’s outright wrong.
  7. Drak3
    Not on Zen+. It was consistent that XFR was delivering higher single core than was possible to do all core OC, by at least 100MHz.

    And you wonder why you aren't part of the harem. /s

    That's what you get for having a MacBook for gaming.

    You completely miss the point of what I'm saying. If this discussion were a game of baseball, you'd be at the public pool calling out 'Marco.'

    No. Globalism of any form ignores the values of all cultures except the one in control, and large government attracts more corruption.

    Something something sounds like Fascism, you Nazi. /s

    A protector of free speech under attack in a country without free speech? Color me surprised.

    Inferior foorwear.
  15. Drak3
    Nope. Sandels are inferior.

    MOAR RAM!

    I've had two partners my life and this was before I got more into mobile tech.

    Key difference: This forum has semi competent moderation.

    Linux fanboys: Linux is awesome because you can modify it to suit your needs. Also Linux fanboys: X distro sucks because we need to modify it to suit our needs. Let the Mint foundation do this. Let's find out how many people stand by this concept.

    Given their politics, Google is the last company that should be trusted with this.
  21. Drak3
    You should read the Politico article referenced by OP's source. This isn't a partisan issue,nor is Trump's cabinet unilaterally for or against it (also not the first cabinet to discuss this, it's a trend in the executive branch). Also, the last attempt failed in a majority Republican congress... Which makes sense as a common belief amongst Republicans is that government has no valid reason for random search and seizure and shouldn't be allowed to do so.

    And it was replaced outright by the M1014.
  23. Drak3
    That's wrong. The US military does not use the 870. And they specifically use the Mossberg 590A1 (the other shotgun currently in service is a variant of the Benelli M4). Some high ranking soldiers might smuggle their 870's, but that's it.

    @Jito463 Just stack a few 1" picatinny risers and put a Magpul AFG at the bottom. /s

    I don't know. I think that pink is more intimidating than black...
