Problem with that cpu in the long run is it wont get the 60 frames even at 720 when either GFX card could get 120 in some games just with the right cpu. All the 970 gets you is possibly better 1% lows so you could theoretically play a game with that 970 at 1440p and get the same FPS as someone with a better rig due to the more frames you draw is what causes most cpu strain unless the game is just cpu dependent like many sims or RTS games or games that use the cpu for physics effects. But you will also get the same frames at 1080p because again your cpu is limiting those frames that it is willing to process.

tbh at that rate and finding the hardware reliable i would just go out and spend money on a ryzen 2200g and board and call it a day. Yes you can game on that a4 but you will have constant issues and anything coming out in the future will just be worse.

as far as some chips go it definatly can help you squeeze out quite a good extra bit of mhz or let you run MUCH cooler. But that also depends on how good of a silicon lottery you got with your chip so there is always a risk it may do very little for you in the long run besides thermals. Also there comes maintenance where it will degrade much faster so those results you saw 6mo ago or a year ago may be gone in that much time without reapplying. Which again can be easy or super F'n difficult if say you are full custom loop and even worse for the situation using hardline. But say you have a 7700k and $80 or more to blow on a delidder and liquid metal unless you find a good deal are you willing to do that for possibly no gain? If yes go for it if no than its not something to consider its advantages on at all. It is an ENTHUSIAST market item not to be treated as a necessary part of a complete build unless you like OTT stuff. That being said it is something i would do on again a 7700k and maybe a few other cpu im not sure there are much reports on stellar improvements on a 9700k i would assume it would not cool as more just due to the magnitude of cores pushing out heat so rapidly so you may end up with 50% the gain at best of other more traditionally delidded cpu.

Yeah i wish i could go back and find i just looked through the asus list one day and randomly highlighted and searched with google for the cpu to gauge prices and specifics. There are ALOT so if i do run across another that does mention that i will be sure to post it and double check i have the correct model cpu. Thank you all for your help

ok my main thing is on some of these mobo specifically this one and the asus x99 deluxe II board some of the cpu i have googled are spec'd at ddr3. But the boards are ddr4. yet they say they support the chip. Do i trust the mobo manufacturer for support or the cpu maf?

Title says it all. anyone know of any Xeons that work with X99 Boards? Also i have seen some boards that say they are compatible with some xeons yet the board is DDR4 and the xeon is rated for DDR3 will that actually matter if the board says it still supports the xeon?

Just a bump with new question is will it make a difference on performance if i choose to use an elgato or equivalent capture card or just use NDI?

imho its the CPU not the MOBO i have bought two ryzen 2600 and one did the same thing to my corsair dominator plat 3200 and the second Ryz 2600 was just fine with XMP profiles being loaded. As much as people say ryzen is better with ram compatibility it is still a crap shoot sometimes if the individual cpu accepts it.

i tried but its hard to find info on a dedicated machine. All of what i end up finding is test to see how to game and stream with one. I was thinking it should be plenty due to alot of people using laptops but was not sure it was worth moving forward too much with

Title says it does anyone here think a 2200g is adequate for x264 streaming when everything will be captured by a capture card? No discrete video card will be planned to be installed due to the 2200g being an "apu"

From my experience with the gigabyte and ram it seems fine although i have my own issues with that. Main thing is one Ryz 2600 liked 3200mhz ram and the other did not and would boot to windows but everything would crash instantly once it was above 3000mhz. I have dominator plat 3200mhz 15cl

ok well im still happy with the performance i am getting for now compared to what it was whether its a real reading or not But im going to leave HWiNFO on for a long time and see if it ever peaks to there. It is odd that my system usually sits around 3.7-3.8 currently and if i did hit 4.7 its pretty awesome i never got above 54c but i do have two 540mm rads lol

ill give hwinfo a shot but i am getting way better performance to than i was before as well So Far seems accurate ill run some games and multi task in the BG thats what got it to 4.7

So in my experience with those brands the gigabyte CAN be good. But it often will have less features or accessible features for overclocking and such on most its boards compared to Asus in similar price ranges. Asus has given me more headroom for overclocking over brands like Asrock or MSI. The gigabyte does have tricks to fix a bios fail and restore it by just holding power and reset down for 10 seconds. Asus vrm i have not had any issue with but Asrock i have. I think it will just come down really to how good of a 2600x you have and what each board can do with it. IMO if i had the time i would try both boards in the configuration you want. Boards i know i have had Asrock Taichi X99 Asus X99 Deluxe Asus RGB Gaming AM3 Gigabyte X470 Ultra Gaming Some old MSI board for a Pentium D lol

BTW The system stays boosted around 3.7ghz all the time i have no overclock running just the latest firmware from gigabyte and it has been doing this. No complaints.

Getting up to 4.7ghz boost on my Ryzen 5 2600 system. Have other people been getting near this?

Ok So I have a thermaltake Tower 900 and im using two Swiftech mailstrom 300 res with d5 pump. Doing complete RGB fittings and have two thermaltake 560mm extra thick rads. Essentially this was my overkill as F*#* build as it was only for a gtx 1080 and an intel 6800k. Well now im overkilling it more by adding in a ryzen 2600 machine INTO THE SAME CASE. They will be mirrored along the back side essentailly and the loops will run into each other from machine to machine but each machine will power its own pump and res. Simple enough. But here is my issue, 8gb or 16gb of ram for machine 2 whichever ends up being slightly worse at gaming because that machine will function part time as my dedicated streaming machine and i am just curious of strictly catpuring a video and running OBS in windows 10 will really need more than 8gb of ram.

not sure you read it all.
