Do you want an i9 9900K!? Is Intel's flagship the object of your material dreams however you're an AMD peasant you can't afford it??

 

Fear no More! Gigabyte has you covered like none other does!

 

Now you can afford the i9 9900K beast by cheapening out at your motherboard and memory like never before! Introducing the Amazing, The one of a kind! Unique! the very first and hopefully the last DDR3 9th gen motherboard the Gigabyte H310M DS2V DD3 MicroATX.

 

You're too good for Intel's 14nm chipsets? Go back to the amazing 22nm recycled H310M chipset! That DDR3 1333mhz memory already used with your ancient FX CPU? if it works it works right? throw that in your case and order your i9 9900K already, don't forget you'll need a cooler so grab a Pentium Stock Cooler for maximum cringe goodness!

 

You'll have that sweet bragging rights of the worlds fastest mainstream CPU on the biggest bottleneck scenario ever, VRM and powerphases throttling? insufficient memory bandwidth all this won't matter when you can show off your CPU-z to those Ryzen users peasants! Do not waste another minute and order yours already!

 

"According to the official site, the Intel 9900K supports DDR4-2666 memory. It turns out that the Gigabyte H310M DS2V DDR3 micro ATX motherboard will allow users to run the same CPU with DDR3 memory instead. The motherboard is going to release soon and it supports DDR3-1333 to DDR3-1866."

I wonder what overclocking will be like...

Alright I'm gonna be honest, I love this.

 

All the FX holdouts can now throw an i5 8400 and all their current ram into a board and enjoy better IPC and overall performance without breaking the bank.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Has anyone tested memory speed with DDR4 on a 9900k to see what impact, if any, there is between stock 2667 and 3600/whatever's fastest?

 

You can get DDR3 up to 2400 iirc, usually with tighter timings than fast DDR4, so this may not be an issue at all. DDR3 sure is cheaper. I'm curious to see what impact, if any, this'll have on performance before saying it's horribad. If it's only 5-10fps out of 200fps between stock ddr4 and fast ddr4....guessing ddr3 impact would be similarly minimal.

it... it dosnt even support DDR3 2133MHz.... what a pice of garbage

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

I'm legitimately thinking about that option for a system I have around. HAHA.

It'd lose nearly half the bandwidth moving down to 1833 memory. Latency is similar, so a lot of gaming applications wouldn't be effected. However, those cores are going to be starved for anything that loads up even 6 of them.

 

Still, the supported CPU list on this should be hilarious.

wait seriously? I thought intel would just backport the chipsets to 22nm, not just straight up start producing the old designs again. Intel you fucking memers

inb4 linus pairs this with RTX Titan and 9900K. This would be the one scenario where you are actually limited by your motherboard.

I think it will scale negatively, maybe -1ghz just to boot up

Honestly if you can afford a 9900k, why can’t you get the mobo too? Tbh just get an 8700k and have extra for ddr4 memory and a good mobo,

 

that about $170 extra you can use to get better parts, a 9900k is just overkill to begin with

Think i will pass on the 9th gen however i have itchy buying trigger fingers atm for the 10th gen if its up to par. Patience is a Virtue.

I'm not really sold on buying anything post-Coffee Lake unless it brings some noteworthy features (aside from the IPC improvement that will most probably come with the node shrink) that could justify the early adopter tax.

Fabrication of chipset means nothing. Chipsets are always levels behind CPU fabrication. Also official numbers for RAM are meaningless. X99 has official support up to 2400MHz. But people run way faster RAM on them. I have 2400MHz RAM but at 2666MHz. All fine. As for purpose of using gimped chipset for a top of the line CPU. Well...
