I remembered watching it also, and I think there was a follow up, but just thought I would highlight again as I think it's going to be relevant with the latest build options. If the Gigabyte reviews are favourable and perform well at the mid-end I think I'll be switching over. Less of an issue...

This is absolutely hilarious to me. Now.... I absolutely feel for everyone in any way involved in any sort of warranty claim with Asus. This is without doubt one of the best reasons to use a system integrator or even OEM supplier of hardware, as you tend to have a far better warranty response...

Just had a rattle through the below: Seems that Gigabyte is definitely the one to watch. The only catch at the moment is that these are flagship, I want to see mid-range that we would tend to recommend. The only push that I can see is for RAM speed & USB4. They're not to be sniffed at but...

I was sure I had read it a little while back. Quite clever in the terminology, as always. There are TB4 options, but from what I remember they were fairly premium. Creators being one. My motherboard has TB4, even on the X670, but it also needs configured as such in the BIOS.... I've never really...

I'll remember :sneaky:

Need to get in early. Assetto Corsa Evo..... Dibbs! Sure, might be years but.... dibbs! :LOL:

I could be wrong, and please correct me if I am, but I think it only guarantees TB3? That's still great as well, obviously, but I think you need to go premium-mmur for TB4.

I don't think it'll relate to you in your usage. The only consideration would be dual GPUs down the line as that may limit the M2 quantity. I genuinely wouldn't worry too much. I think for the £ the X870 is a slightly better option for you, but it's down to personal requirements. USB4 is a big...

I'm the same as yourself that way. I'll play with what I have, if what I have isn't good enough then I'll be scouring the net for the best, as saving a fiver at this point is insane. I have a few dongles lying about. Mostly el-cheapos but I'm happy to test and not spend. If the wallet is out...

Did they not back peddle on one of them? Or was that someone else? There was a fairly open yet fairly critical review of certain aspects during the early release. The person then came back with an "I was wrong" response, as it was more down to their setup than the actual tech itself. I love to...

PSVR2 Ordered PC Adapter Ordered Controller Dock Ordered If this comes through I've got all the kit and I'm still £100 better off :cool: Anywhere around £350 I will maintain is a bargain for what you get in that headset.

It's ridiculous tbh. It's good to have some selection but it's getting far too much nowadays. Having "E" versions of the different models is a nightmare.

I hate you!! Well... my wallet hates you! My gadget brain loves you! :LOL:

There is a performance increase..... it's just not an £800 performance increase. The 40 series cards aren't a good outlay right now. Below the 80 series is likely the most sensible money as it tends to be a little while before that range is released. The 5090 will typically be first with the...

Not sure. I think they're comparable though. PCIE5.0 and USB4 are quite compelling in a single unit. Only the Creator offers that and its silly money. Chipset lanes is the real bump which I found a minefield trying to navigate. If you use this M2 you can't use X16, but if you use this one, you...

Just to respond. I'm not trashing the 4090 at all, it's an absolute monster of a card.... but with the 5090 on the horizon (and the 5080 that will smash the 4090) it's just not a sensible purchase at this time. If you want to be cutting edge and you're willing to pay for it, the top tier card...

Are you in a hurry for the system? It's likely worthwhile holding off for the 9800X3D if you can. Rumours are it's due the end of the month. If not then I would opt for an X870 build with a 7800X3D to get the best gaming performance. Regardless of which way you go, you do not want to touch the...

If anyone sees this at £350 in the coming weeks/months, gimmie a shout. I want a new toy. Just bumping and highlighting in case I miss it. Loads of people running it on PC now and, while not without it's niggles, most of the experiences are very positive.

Bottlenecks, no. It's a solid build. There are considerations though: I would opt for a bigger case when looking at proper long renders/utilisation. The 5000D Airflow has a bit more height and room to allow circulation. 7950X is previous generation, the 9950X is the current generation. It has...

Enough.. yes.... room for improvement... of course. It may be worth holding off till February now if you can. There's always something around the corner but there's a perfect storm of the latest Ryzen X3D offering along with the next generation Nvidia GPUs.
