If you look at the min FPS, it is abnormally low compared to like last gen chips like 12400f. May just be an outlier on oc3d. Waiting for ltt and GN reviews for more detailed comparison

Does anyone know when the review for Intel 13th gen non K CPU will be released? At least from major US reviewers. I5 13400f had been open for sale in my country for 3 weeks. Initial review from other reviewers are not that positive on this chip

Is there any black level smearing on Samsung Odyssey G7? Hardwareunboxed review praise it having little to none smearing. Any G7 owner here notice any smearing when playing dark games like Hades? From the comparison video below, smearing is very obvious on the VA panel.

Is it worth it to go from RTX 3060Ti Non LHR to RTX 3080 LHR for $300 extra? Looking at benchmarks it has an improvement of 20-50% on 1080p ray tracing game. Though those benchmark usually runs on high end CPUs. Spec: i5 10400f B460m 16GB 3200Mhz RTX 3060Ti 1080P 144hz monitor

I see. So extra hardware is not needed to enable overclocking and hyper threading on Intel? If that's the case then Intel is just greedy AF.

Looking at AMD's current new ryzen lineup where all their chips are overclockable, why does Intel intentionally limit overclocking capabilities to certain chips only? Can't they just enable overclocking for all chips, although it would not overclock as much as the chips that are designed to be overclocked? This goes for Intel's motherboard as well where only the "Z" board enables overclock, mainstream board "H" cannot. On the other hand, AMD "Z" and mainstream "B" board enables overclock. Does this all comes down to the way AMD and Intel chips work?

Does anyone know the quality of Superflower silver ECO? (I would have consider Superflower Leadex silver, but it has been out of stock for more than a year in my country) I could only find one review in korean regarding this psu. http://playwares.com/pcreview/56068557# Which tier will this PSU ranks at according to the tests and pictures?

I do plan to upgrade my monitor to 120hz/144hz 1080p with my CPU upgrade. But for now I am pretty satisfied with 60fps so I do not mind capping my fps. As for the reason I am choosing 1070ti or above are because latest title like assasin creed origin, 1060 only manages to pump out 50-60 fps average for a 2017 title which is not ideal. Imagine few years down the road, gtx 1060 will not able to support 60fps highest setting on the latest title.
