  1. Hi guys, I don't know if it really matters, but my Cinebench R23 Score was 13600 on my 7600x, I purchased it a few days ago. Online reports seem closer to 15k. Any idea what might cause this? Specs as follows; 7600x B650 Strix A H150 Corsair AIO 1x 16 GB DDR5 Corsair Vengeance 5600mhz (is this the issue? I googled it quickly but can't find concrete answers) Other than that I haven't noticed any slowness or anything bad, but the numbers were lower than I expected. Your thoughts?
  2. Hi, referring to these https://www.amazon.com/Thermaltake-500-2000-Connection-Reversable-CL-F170-PL14SW/dp/B0CCQBJTSY?th=1 I have a corsair 7000d (still sealed) and want to use these fans. Am I correct in my understanding that these fans only use one header and then magnetically transfer the current to each other? I saw corsair makes ames similar ones but they are kinda pricey
  3. Hi, I realize this might be a weird question, and I'm a total hypocrite, as I was somewhat into crypto mining 3-5 years ago (I only had 10 cards, 8x Nvidia and 2x AMD). That being said, the overall meh reception of the 4000 series, soft launches and pricing has made me a bit sour. I have an RTX 3080, the last survivor of my mining days, but I have been wanting to upgrade, I just can't seem to really find anything that 'makes sense' despite being able to afford it. Reviewers are slamming Nvidia a lot as well, and it kinda just puts me off. I know they're trillionaires now with AI, but that doesn't mean anything to me. So I've hung onto my GPU and I'm on the fence about switching to AMD. I was going to get a 7600x or 7700x anyways, but now I might as well get an AMD GPU as well? Or I just won't get anything Which is the worst spot for Nvidia/AMD to be in, no?
  4. ohh i see, ok thats actually awesome ok this is looking like a strong contender then
  5. My first time seeing this, didn't even know it was a thing. Googled it and it seems pretty much the same as the 7900x but with a cooler included. Will the included cooler be good enough? Weirdly interested in this CPU now and might buy it.
  6. Hi guys, so after watching a video on the 7000D and really falling in love with this giant case, I bought one. It's part of me wanting to upgrade more over time. So I'm planning everything. I would def need a new motherboard as mine doesn't support the type C from the chassis to the motherboard, but that is still to be determined. So I have 3x 140mm Cooler master Halos and 3x 120mm halos from my current case. I am wondering if I should reuse them or get corsairs fans instead. I watched a few videos and it looks a bit intimidating to configure all the fans with the Corsair hubs and I just want to make the right decision. I do have an cooler master fan controller but it's not like synced with aurasync or anything, it just has buttons that I can press and I just leave it on rainbow as my current mobo doesn't support argb Any input would be appreciated. I don't really have a budget but ofc I don't wanna be stupid either.
  7. Statistically speaking, there must be a biggest GPU. I am curious which one it might be, especially now that we got some chonky boys with the RTX 4000 series.
  8. Hi guys, I have a 1tb rogueware nx100 2.5" SATA SSD, it was the cheapest 1tb I could find. I've had it for about 3 months now. I noticed my PC doing some weird things like not being able to update games stored to it. Not being able to uninstall steam games on it. So I tried manually deleting the games on it and it took forever to even open it in file explorer. Definitely something was wrong. Tried booting up a game, path of exile. It took minutes to get into the game. Textures were popping in, once popped in they were fine tho, moving to new zones took 90 + seconds to load . Something was definitely up. I ran windows Disk Repair and it said the disk is faulty and it autorepaired it. It took about 30 minutes but thereafter the drive was good, great even. Fast and efficient again. I ran crystaldisk info and it said that the drive is 100%. So my question is, wtf happened? I didn't know ssds could experience this? In my mind, SSD is SSD, it either works or it doesn't, none of this slow dying out like HDDs do. So is this normal or should I worry about my drive?
  9. Hi guys, so I was watching this video on Hardware Unboxed where they were comparing 'entry level' B650 motherboards but they started talking about mosfets and power phases, this is completely foreign to me. What power phases are we supposed to look for? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTFUa60ozKY
  10. Hi guys, so I am trying to connect 6 screens to one PC, motherboard is gigabyte ga z97 d3h They would not be split screens but rather individual outputs. So a hdmi splitter won't work. Can I use or install two graphics cards in this mobo and use it like that ?

  12. Or what is the general consensus on what's good these days? Needs to fit a 4080 ATX mobo 1x nvme 2x 2.5" SSD 2x 3.5" HDD And 240mm liquid cooler

  14. For gaming. Looking at the performance of the Ryzen 7000 series CPUs, they are fast in games, looking at some reviews you can see 7600x outperforming way more expensive CPUs. We saw a similar trend with the 5800x3D. Where it had loads of cache. So now despite only having 6 cores, these Ryzen CPUs are doing really well. so it does made me wonder, are the days of people trying to go for high core counts pretty much over then? so it does become more difficult to compare CPUs, without watching benchmarks. If you as a general consumer, not an enthusiast, look at a 9700k and a 7600x, would you really be able to tell the difference looking at an product page?
