  1. yeah I was gonna upgrade my motherboard to because the one I have definitely can't run a ryzen 9. I was gonna get a GIGABYTE X570 AORUS Elite Wi-Fi as well as the processor but I think you're right i'm gonna wait to see the performance reviews and see if its worth.
  2. my processor is kinda due for an update. I have a ryzen 5 2600x that has served me extremely well these past 2 years. Back then I was mainly using it for gaming and some light work on the side but during this year of college and most likely the years to come i'm taking many 3d animation classes using maya and other software. Since where working at home because the virus i've had to do all my projects at home and have really come to see the limitations of the cpu. When rendering in arnold it takes like 30 seconds to render one frame or if I open the renderview it lags the entire program making it almost impossible to do anything else. Since it looks like we're gonna be home a little while longer i've been looking to upgrade my cpu and have kind of settled on the ryzen 9 3950x. However, I know the Ryzen 5000 series is coming out and was wondering if the price difference is worth it. As of right now I can buy the 3950x for 650 which is 100 dollars less than retail and 150 dollars less than the 5950. So, ultimately is it worth paying 150 dollars more for the new processor or just buy the old one.
  3. Just bought an MSI b450 tomahawk max and now knowing that zen 3 is on the way and won'e be compatible with b450 should I return it or should I keep this one. ( btw I'm not playing on upgrading my cpu anytime soon I have a ryzen 5 2600x and I don't really stream or do cpu intensive stuff so this is more than enough for me right now but it would be nice to have the option to upgrade in the future I just cant justify the pirce for a 570 or a motherboard that is gonna support next gen right now). Thanks in advanced to anyone who responds - the worried soul
  4. Hey guys, i've been having some problems with my ram and have never been able to figure out what the problem was. I bought a 3200mhz corsair vengeance 2 x 8gb kit a while back and installed them in my pc. I went to the bios to change the ram to the 3200mhz frequency and everything was fine for a while however, whenever I started a game or around 10 min passed by I would get a blue screen. ( I just updated the bios recently and it still has the game problem but i'm not sure about the blue screen) At this point i'm not sure if its a waiting game to see if new updates come out or if its the motherboard, the CPU. or the ram, so I will leave my pc list on the bottom if that helps.

  6. I was just wondering i've had my pc for about 2 years and I wanted to upgrade my motherboard to get options like m.2, better ram com, and rgb compatibility, I jsut wanted to know if I do by a new motherboard and change it with my current setup would my pc behave differently would i have problems etc. Any help would be appreciated. PS. the mobo i have right now is a ASUS Prime B350M-A.
  7. As of right now I have a PRIME B-350M-A micro atx motherboard and its been good to me however i was wondering if there's any point to upgrading my motherboard and what benefits it would come with it as well as how would windows respond if I change my motherboard. One thing I had a problem with was my ram not to long ago i bought a 3200mhz speed ram and every time I went to the bios and change it to that after a while in idle it would crash however, I don't know if that's the motherboard or my CPU (ryzen 2600x) anyways any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced.
  8. Oh alright thanks so much! I changed the ram frequency to 3000mhz and so far is been fine than when i had it at 3200mhz i was trying to run doom and everytime i tried it would crash now it boots up and i'm able to play it. Will keep testing out this setup and see if theirs any problems if not i my try to mimic that other ram you mentioned. Also what would i have to do to get it to 3200mhz just wondering is it my mobo or my processor, or some other thing that might be affecting it. Thanks anyways!

  10. So I recently installed some new ram and after being on my pc for a while their was 2 blue screens that happend they didn't happen right away but one right after I installed the ram a tired out a game then the next one after an hour plus of surfing and talking to freinds. This never has happend before until I installed this new ram is their any reason why you guys might know. Also if this helps discord just restarts sometimes by itself and idk why. Any help would be appreciated. Also the pc runs fine third no hippus or anything. Well besides the blue screen.
  11. oh ok yeah i think its the voltage my old stick used much less than this set.
  12. so I recently installed some new vengeance ram that i got (16gb kit 2 8gb sticks at 3200mhz) and was just wondering if having faster and more ram increase the temperature of your cpu. Before I used to have a single 8 stick at 2400mhz im pretty sure and used to run at idle at 31 and under regular load like chrome discord etc it would go up to 40 ish sometimes high 40s but now with these new ram sticks it spikes to like 50 whenever i open and app etc basically higher than usual or form what i remember. it wasn't will I turned my fan speed max till i started getting more consistent lower temps. around 34 idle and 44 high 40s on same type of load. basically dose more ram equal more temps or did I do something. ps. the only thing i did was manually set the ram to the 3200mhz speed but didn't touch or have overclocked my cpu.
  13. Just installed some 3200mhz ram and manuly set it to its 3200mhz mark I was also just wondering how much power I should give it it's set to 1.35 as of now but do not know if that's enough. Also their a 16gb vengeance 2 stick of 8gb 3200mhz
  14. no its just stock with the boost speed and the wrath spire cooler it came with.
  15. Just installed my new processor and was wondering if these temps are good when i'm gaming on heavy loads like overwatch on ultra it runs about 70-71c max and other games around 60c give or take. its a ryzen 2600x btw thanks for any input.
  16. well like you said if you wanna future proof a bit then a vega 56 would be good however we don't know how long it will take developers to take advantage of the vega cards they still have to abide by console standards which they might just port over and not give any features the ti on the other hand is also very good right and wont go anywhere anytime soon so both cards will last you a long time. They are both pretty much the same performance wise and if you really don't mind waiting and want an amd card you can wait for the Navi cards that AMd is releasing that will rival the Nvidia cards at a cheaper price. (supposably that's what the leaks say). If not it's really your preference at this point.
  17. I mean i used to have a rx580 4gb and a ryzen 5 1400 and it ran great on everything high except shadows and motion blur off around 120 frames a sec average. I dont know how far in power a 570 and a 580 is but i wouldn't expect a lot.
  18. I was in the same predicament and decide on getting a 1070ti because I don't have a freesync monitor and it was a bit faster in most games than the 56 form the test i saw however if you do have a freesync monitor I would go for the 56. It also gets a bit hotter than a ti but it shouldn't be a problem. idk where your buying it but newegg also has a special where you get 3 free games if you buy an amd card as well as Nvidia cards also but only one game so that's something to keep in mind.
  19. oh ok, also I was using core temp to see my temperature settings is that reliable or no.
  20. its a ryzen 5 2600x and it has the warith spire
  21. So I just installed a new processor and was wondering if these temperatures are fine. When i'm idling and have nothing open it stays around 31 c give or take and whenever i open something iit jumps like 10 degrees then starts going down and up again fluctuating up and down from 32 or so to like 42, 45, then when im playing games it goes to like 60 max under high load and that temperature usually stays constant going up and down a couple degrees. So really what I was wondering is if these temps are fine and is that spiking bad when I open programs and do other stuff. Thanks for any input.
  22. so wait i was just looking around and i found a ryzen 5 2600x for 10 more dollars would that be better or no
  23. Na lol I just wanna play games with my freinds and stuff I don't really care about streaming
