It's crazy how fast the used market is changing, definitely some huge bargains on CPUs right now! Let me know what CPU you want checked out next!
I don't expect the i7-9700K to be a bargain, but I'm wondering how it stacks up to the modern stuff, as someone looking to upgrade from let's say an i3-8100 or i5-8400.
Please test the 3700x vs. a 6600k or similar CPUs in gaming. Z170s and those 6th and 7th Gen intel's came down in price quite well, too.
the 5950x needs to come down though
Intel Core i9-7900X seems like a bargain, if you can get the motherboard for not a crazy price.
Intel Core i5-11500T, hard to find in stock at a CEX.
Ryzen 3600 are readily going for £60 here in the UK, but I've seen 2 or 3 go for £40, I picked a couple up myself, also a 3700X for £70 in the summer. Still decent CPU for budget builds if the price is right. These are what I consider baseline performance these days.
They are perfectly capable of doing 4k60+ with preem tier gpu like the 3070
5600G is £100 on Amazon 🙄
yes, baselines, theres a dude that covers Star Citizen, and tested several bummy cpus, he shows that either the i7 8700 or 3600 is the absolute minimum, and from that baselines you can go from there up
@@NamTran-xc2ip3070 itself not really capable of consistent 4k@60, 8gb and GPU performance is more like 1440p@60 or 1080@144, but weak CPU like 3700x can become a bottleneck on some CPU-intensive titles in 1080. Still ok CPU for cheap setups with a decent upgrade path to 5800x3d.
@@SovietN1nja you dont have to turn everything to the max, not every game but most games
I'm still on 3700x and I can't imagine upgrading it since it's been running so well for most of my application, which is non-gaming. It's the best CPU I've ever owned.
Ive got the 5700x and ive got to say, its not that much faster lol
@@adk4986 good to know. i have a 3700x and 1070ti and was thinking gpu needs upgraded first.
I went from a 2700X to a 5900X, gaming I noticed no difference, multi-tasking, the 5900X is a beast, so if you don't rip movies, download movies, burn movies to bluray while playing a game, you're good for a long time.
3700x rocks.
My 3700X was well binned & purchased early 2021 & has always been well cooled I put it in a 2nd build because it's to good for the price I would have got for it. The 5800X3D I replaced it with gives me a 22% gain.
Been debating the same move to replace mine with an 5800X3D, though I don't know if I will gain that much considering I have an thin ITX build and most certainly will need to throw it into Eco mode to keep it cool.
@@tonicipriani You will need a good air cooler & undervolt it in the BIOS settings, but saying that I only upgraded to get the last out of the AM4 socket. The 3700X is a gem that will serve you for years if you don't feel the need to upgrade.
Same here. Replaced it with a 5800x3D. All Components are here. Starting the Build this Week. Had the 3700x, RAM, PSU and RTX2070 Super from my 2020 Build over and why throw it away?
I've been runnin' my 3700x pc since 2020 and whew!!!! it's been awesome. Still fast enough to do production work and play games at a decent level. I've paired it with a 6700 xt.
Thanks for the video.
Rocking a 3700X + RTX 2060S for 1080p since 2019. To this day it's still awesome for all online high FPS games and most AAA games. For people on the budget under $600USD, if you can find this combo, or similar performing parts (Ryzen 5600, RX 6600/XT, RTX 3060) used, it's probably all you need.
Not for cs2 tho i only get 200 fps and stuttering all over place
Lmao I literally ran that same combo when I built my pc. Now I got and RX6800 and a 5800X3D. 👌
We have same gear until now 😂
When you id the "Lets get in the tech mobile" bit it made my day lol
The Ryzen 3700X is still a great CPU, and definitely capable of holding it's own in the current gaming environment. Heck, the 5700X can be currently had for about $190 USD new, which honestly may be the new sweet spot for price/performance...
Zen 3 has been terrific. 5600X on launch day, got the 5700X a year ago and was even more impressed. It runs so cool you'd think it has an AIO cooler installed.
Had a 3700X running in my daughter's rig for 2 years now, after upgrading from a R5 3600. With a RTX 2060, it plays everything she cares about at 1080p quite well.
The 5700x would be the absolute minimum I would ever go for on the amd side of things.
@@HenrySomeone I think we're talking more budget/value oriented builds here... it's easy to turn a $1000 build into a $1500 build by just levelling up the odd component here or there - which some people just don't have.
i own gen 3 and gen4 AM4 amd AM5 Ryzen CPUs and i have an 5600 and an 3700X, the 3700X has a lower power consuption and is easier to cool.
Been wanting to one of these up. The price is always the catch. Nice that aliexpress has for under a $100. Now i got to order one
Quality Aussie Dad joking on the quick sink mate!
Great find! I was able to snag a Ryzen 7 5800x myself in Sydney for $220 AUD (~139USD). Crazy good deal at the time!
crazy good video, I didnt expect driver overhead to be taken in consideration. PLEASE keep doing it especially with new AMD GPU releases
What does driver overhead means?
Great review Brian.
I'm running an R7 5700x with an RTX3070, and 32 gig 3200 ram.
No issues with my system bottle necking. Gpu is usually around the high 90%'s unutilisation, with the cpu at around 80-90% utilisation.
Was thinking about the RX7800XT as an upgrade, but after watching your video, I think I'll wait, as the diff isn't worth the cost of the new card for now.
Looking forward to the next video mate.
*Looks at my 3800XT & 3070Ti. pats the computer case. Ya did good son, ya did good*
Brian it would be good to see a Ryzen 3 3300x ...the unicorn CPU that sold out here in Australia very quickly.... Great content
Still one outlier that struck me was the Boulder Gate FPS and the money's spent to get a near 60Fps experience. Stunning.
Just ordered all new parts besides my gpu (RX 6700 XT) upgrading from a ryzen 7 2700x to a ryzen 7 7700x, going from 32GB ram @3200mhz to 64GB@5400mhz. I'm very excited for this upgrade
I ran my 3700x for a year with the wraith cooler not being properly mounted. Dried up thermal paste and all. Properly mounted the cooler cpu still works great.
I still have a 3700x but have a 5800x3d on the way. That being said I got the 3700x back in very early 2020 when it was still top tier. Amazing CPU even to this day holds its own perfectly well. I upgraded my 2060 Super to a 6800XT and its kinda bottlenecking the card a bit but still really good. 4 yrs almost and no issues whatsoever. Love this chip gonna miss it so much when the 5800x3d comes in in a couple of days.
I've worked on 2 systems where the memory speeds/stability degraded over time and both times cleaning the dimm slots and ddr4 contacts with alcohol and a toothbrush (gently) would allow me to push the memory speeds higher. These PCs were used by or around people that smoke, though I suspect this could still happen just given a long enough period of time. This could potentially show up more for those who push their ram to the raggedy edge of stability. Anyway, if your system used to be stable (assuming you didn't use crazy voltages) and now it's not, maybe try giving the slots/dimms a clean. Obviously don't do this while plugged in to power and be sure everything is dry before powering the PC back on.
I got a 5600 for a little below 100€ some time ago, and I swapped it for my friend's 3700X (which was actually my old CPU lol), and he was getting slightly better fps in most games, if not the same. So I guess this video works for that one as well.
He is getting a 7800XT as well, so pretty much the same as here.
When Zen 2 dropped I remember there being a lot of talk about how the memory speeds and tuning were a huge factor with those chips, but just months later almost every forum was suggesting 3200 mhz @ cl16, because tighter latency on 3600+mhz was quite expensive at the time. It looks like 3200 was just the right recommend either way lol.
I am recently planning to upgrade ram and my PC has r7 3700x. Should I go with 3200MHz cl16 or 3600mhz cl18?
@@explorepixels1792 iirc with Zen 2, the difference between the two was pretty negligible. There was a lot of data on this in one of Anthony's videos on LTT, and of course GN did a bunch of testing. They found some sweet spots around 4000mhz and like 3600 cl16, but at the end of the day, you'll be looking at a few percent difference at most. I would go with what fits best in the budget. 3200mhz is very well priced these days.
@@explorepixels1792Honestly, for the money it can go either way. Both have come WAY down in price, easily had for less than $40 for 16gb, and the performance difference is honestly negligible.
Happy Birthday!!!
Am still able to pick up brand new R5 5600 for under 100 USD locally in SEA, just need the right time for sales & vouchers to line up. I bought a 2nd one for $88 last month.
I recently got a 2700x for $50 AUD. Very happy with it. I was getting regular blue screens with my memory at the 3200mhz xmp profile so had to drop it to 2933mhz. Been smooth paired with my 2070 super
RE the RAM, I've found that only Samsung B-die or Micron E-die modules will work well. I've had issues with Corsair and other stuff but my Crucial Ballistix ran at 3600/CL16 with zero issues on both my 3700x and my 3600 rigs.
Running a 3800x in my system with a 3600 kit, never had an issue i have pushed it to 3800 also but did not like the high voltage. This all said my brother has a 3700x and a 3200kit and the performance is basically the same as my 3800x system its a few fps at most difference. I will probably do the 5800x3d upgrade in a year or so when they are super cheap. The 3800x is still very solid.
I dont get whats the difference between the 3700 and 3800! I have mine stable at 4300 undervolt
The driver overhead is a complex topic. But in short answer: AMD has a smaller overhead on DX12 while Nvidia has a smaller overhead in DX11 (I am not sure if RTX 4000 changed a thing). OFC there are some outliers.
I always delight in knowing that I snagged a Ryzen 9 5950X for 160.00 with shipping Via an Ebay seller who listed it as defective (Boot Loop). I got the chip and installed it, it boot looped when I powered it on. I went into bios, adjusted two settings and the system booted to Windows. Chip works perfectly to this day.
Bought my 3700x in 2020 and its still going strong for 3d animation productivity as well as gaming . might upgrade it in an year or two
I'm still running a 3700x with a 3080. I mainly use it for a rendering station in blender and it's absolutely fine. My RAM runs at 3600mhz but i do remeber having issues getting it to clock at that speed in the bios (don't ask me how i did it in the end, i can't remember). Im using a mini itx ROG B450 motherboard.
I've considered upgrading to a 5800x but i dont think its worth it for my use case. Also didn't think upgrading to the new platforms for a whole chunk of change would net me significant gains for work.
I bought my 3700x new a few years ago it still handles everything quite capably I don't see me upgrading for at least another year and I'll still say with the AM4 platform I'm running this with 64 gigs of ddr4 3200 for the graphics card I'm running a Radion Sapphire RX 6600 and I'm quite happy
Great PP value on this deal.
Would love to try and see how quickly would a R7 3700X system sell in my local marketplace to see if people snag onto the "Ryzen 7" tag. However, brand new R5 5600 (non-X/G) prices sold by local online retailers from where I'm from are REAAALLY cutting close in terms of prices that Aliexpress offers (including shipping) and that makes selling Zen 2 CPUs above a R5 3600 a harder sell for shop-savvy buyers looking for "mid/endgame" PCs that are still on the AM4 platform.
Never had a problem with running 3600Mhz on 3700X on 2 different systems. Both have an X570 mobo though. Running 2x16Gb Gskill Ripjaws on one and 2x16Gb Corsair vengence on the other. I am looking to get me a 5700X though. Juicy upgrade😁
I also had a 3700x on a x570 tuf paired with 3600mhz c16 ballistix running smoothly from the first start, so is not the the cpu that has problem to run the 3600mhz memory.
Under $100? It's the new Xeon!
Haha exactly
and what's the new Pentium? 😅
good to hear i'm not too far of, with my Ryzen 5 3600x and my 3070 ;p
its amazing that you can get a used ryzen cpu cheaper here in the us for less then an a lot of old amd fx cpus.
I just picked up a 5600x with one broken pin for $40 on eBay. The pin dealt with memory, mainly only one channel worked. I replaced the the pin and have dual channel running again.. I paired it with 32gb 3200 ram and a 12gb 3060. This is still a pretty powerful combo for 1440p and I already have a buyer for the system
How did you do it?
@@LPgmxDan I have a hot air/soldering station. I have been doing board level repairs for years. I recently had to repair traces coming from a CPU socket to the ram slots because they had been broken and the first 2 ram slots didn't work. It's all about patience and practice. And steady hands lol
@@larryrodriguez1977 how did you do the pin repair tho how did you connect them
@@LPgmxDan the pins in an AMD CPU have a small base in them. Kind of like a tee for tee-ball. You have to desolder the old base and solder a new pin in it's place. I believe jays2cents has a video as does ltt. Northridge fix has a few videos showing the process also. For the trace repair I used .01mm wire and soldered it to each side of the trace to repair the break. I have done actual pin repair in an Intel socket but it was a pain and it was just to prove to myself that I could do it.
@@larryrodriguez1977 thanks for the replies I also find those repairs very interesting I still lack the equipment and knowledge about this topic tho
I just bought a combo deal of a 3700X, including a new Wraith Prism cooler, with the pre-applied thermal paste, and an RTX 2070 Super for $280 USD in the U.S. Gonna try and flip it in a budget build.
I recommend using Crucial's memory with up until Zen+/2000 series, or at least Samsung B-dies, but in most of memory 3200 should work no problem for Zen2.
Crucial memory or Corsair Vengence is what I would recommend around 3600.
they work good with older Ryzen, and I had some trouble with patriot's memory too. not sure which chip it was using but I had issues, switched to Corsair 2666 and OC'd just set it to 3600 and it just worked.
I need to get back into building pc's. when you haven't done it for awhile you lose track of all this type of stuff.
I would avoid Corsair as it mostly cheap ram.
i'm running my 3700x with 3600 mhz 32gb XMP with no issues on an MSI b450 Pro-VDH Max. Thanks for the vid, well done
Funny how you mentioned 3466 RAM timings, my 11600KF in Gear 1 mode hasn't been able to hold steady at 3600 while my previous 10400 did, but the drop down barely effects any benchmarks. Its been 2.5 years now and its still holding strong.
I have a 3700X in my collection and have tested it with current high end GPU's but yeah I too couldnt get mine to work with 3600mhz memory. I went with 3200mhz didnt try to find the tipping point
R7 3700X user here, pairing it with an RTX 4070 Ti. No sign of aging yet, still runs everything on 1440p no problem including Phantom Liberty with path tracing on + DLSS Quality.
Same set up! Just got the 4070 Ti and have had the 3700x since 2020
Got my 3700x with a asus rog b550-a gaming and phanteks case for 450$aud 2nd hand. For xmp issue i had to do a bios update. I have it paired with a 6800xt red devil which i scored for $300. System runs smooth i get 100fps in most games I play
Popped one of these babies I found for 95 euro's in a 2600 upgrade last weekend, owner had Gskill 3000 hz in the system, enabled XMP and set to 3200, runs flawlessly.
I got a 3800x used back in 2022 for $200. 3800x is supposed to be the "Best silicon" version of the 3700x bin, but otherwise pretty much the same in every way. Running on a Tomahawk b450, G.Skill FlareX 3200 CL14 memory, and RTX 3080 10gb. I picked up the 3080 when the prices dropped down to $850 new. Using a 1440p ultrawide monitor so resolutions are between 1440p -> 4K. Can get 75-95 FPS on various titles running many settings at ultra and a few dropped down to high. Here recently been playing Darktide, Robocop, Red Dead Redemption, and Baldur's Gate 3. Mostly I just click the in game recommended settings button and then enable DLSS. Recently I updated my BIOS and didn't realize that XMP got disabled by the update. I played some games and thought my CPU was dying because everything was a bit choppy as CPU load increased. Realized something wasn't right when I saw the cache latency on CPUID was running at CL16. Checked the BIOS and corrected the XMP issue and everything went to buttery smooth. So, the FlareX memory running at the tight CL14 timings smooths gameplay quite a bit.
This might not matter as much, but if you're using LLMs as much as I am, cpu power is important. I'm still using a Ryzen 7 3700x, and it's still able to keep up running multiple LLMs.
But threadrippers are the premium choice in the future if you're an AMD fan boi like me. Gaming is cool, but seeing what these LLMs can do is really exciting, and my nerd level is over 9000 !
I think you should better use 1% lows instead of 0.1% lows since they are too sensible to catch a random stutter that might not even be game related .... see in Cyberpunk the 3700X matching the 7950X3D in 0.1% lows at 1080p but way behind at 1440p, or the 29fps in Apex at 1080p but 185 at 1440p.... also in baldurs gate getting 3 or 13fps in 0.1%s is irrelevant since both mean that the picture basically freezes for a moment.
Set the SOC to a SAFE voltage of 1.15 and that should fix the ram issue... I overclock my 3600 kit to 4000mhz with c16 timings by upping SOC to 1.21and a few other tweaks on my Steel Legend B550 board
From my experiences with Zen2 chips, be happy it reached 3333 with that memory. I couldn't get the ones I worked with to do past 3200, even with 3600 memory. It took going up to Zen 3 to get those kinds of speeds. I don't think it's the IMC, but rather than Infinity Fabric speeds that hold it back. Zen1 and Zen+ were even worse, barely able to get to 2933, and then only with the right memory.
only had problems with my 7800xt had occasional blackscreens not reproducible , driver timeout etc much problem with second screen with high refreshrate , high idle wattage
had send it back to seller and hope to get my money back and buy me a slower and less vram 4070 but STABLE
One of my favorite processors. 😎👌🏻
What about the Ryzen 3600(X) paired with latest GPU and games?
Yea ima have to check this out I’m still rocking a 1700x
3700x, asus 2080 ti, x570 tuf gaming m.b, 32 gb g skill 3600 (overclocked). never had any issues, pretty damn good for the time, but she's still holdin up.
I have this chip in my pc now with a rx 5700xt. Wanna upgrade to a 6700xt. Runs great I love it
Those are some solid components, should make for a very good system for whomever snatches it up.
With 4 years of continuity, the first to 4th gens of ryzen are amazing at almost any price really.
Replaced my r5 1600 from 2017 with a 3700x + wraith prism I got in Germany for 50 euros
Also got a 3600 for 40 and 1700 for 20 because at those prices it s a shame not getting them
Just paid €80 for a 3700X - an upgrade from an i7 4790K and it's amazing. I couldn't care less about gaming any more, or which GPU works best with it.
An Xbox was cheaper than a GPU so I gave up on the PC gaming.
I got it for productivity and general desktop use, for which you can't go wrong at the price.
Perhaps it's best side (productivity) is worth a mention?
A tweak to the soc voltage might help the ram speeds.
Black Friday Special ASUS TUF B550M-PLUS $129 AUD, then had to get the rest from Ebay, Corsair 2 x 8GB 3200 $32 AUD, SK HYNIX PC801 250GB $20 AUD I think it's the same has the SK HYNIX PLATINUM P41, and I was looking for a 6 core CPU, but priced to high so went with a Ryzen 3 3100 for $50 AUD but hear me out, I really want a 8 core Ryzen 7 5700 or 5800 but I think there's more price reductions to come. Upgrading from a i7-4790 using the same case and tower cooler, I really just wanted something with PCI-E 4 and NVME's. That's my life story, never added up the postage, sound much better without.
I'm still using a R7-3700X on a new MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk. I just installed this motherboard and used my old 3700X for now. It's doing really good. I'm running a MSI RTX3060, 16 G Corsair Vengence RAM at 3600M. I'm really happy, it's a good budget mid-range gaming system. In all honesty, I'm going to upgrade to a R7-5700X when I can, but this is working good for now.
I'm using 3700X with Colorful iGame 3060 Mini for my ITX system, it's the best sub-19cm GPU with reasonable price I could find here in Thailand. Would like to try 4060 Ti 16GB version but it's still more than twice the price of the 3060 I'm using
I bought the 3700x this week on Ebay under $100 USD for a budget video too. Still waiting for it to arrive.
Assetto Corsa Competitizione used about 4-5 cores but still very cpu bound as a test case. Ryzen 3000 around 70-90fps, 10thGen -11th Gen 100-130fps, Alderlake+ 130-160fps+ (rough example, full grid on High settings) the game loves Low latency Ram/IPC and Large Caches.
😀 have you picked up a Wheel yet?
Had a 3700x with a Tuf Gaming X570-plus mobo @ 3600mhz ddr4 for the last 4 years never had a issue with my rams
yeah the wraith cooler is actually good, I used it on my 12900k as a placeholder while I waited for the thermalright lol
Recently picked up a ryzen 5 3600 RTX 3060 Ti system from cash converters for $580 aud 😊
I went to go buy a $40 AM4 motherboard, and the guy had a "broken" 3700x. Turns out it was only like 5-8 bent pins, I'm a pro so i fixed it with the back of a razer blade and BOOM it WORKED! Free 99 is the way to ROLL! Awesome processor and a nice little upgrade from my other free R5 3600! I recently went back to playing on a GTX 980ti instead of my 2070S and besides streaming the card is amazing! 200fps in tons of games at 1080p. Sometimes I forget older hardware doesn't mean OLD, just means older!
I remember having to bump up SOC Voltage on a brand new 3700X slightly (not by much) to reach DDR XMP (was DOCP on my board) 3600 speeds with full stability. It could be IMC degradation, on your chip, or it may have always been this way.
It cheap ram, my 5800x can't run my ram at 3600 C18 but it works at 3200 C16.
I recall I could not get my ram above 3400 either on the 3700X (just below that actually) but when I got a 5800X3D on the same board it was no problem at the full 3600 speed too.
Yes the 3000 series has issues with ram speeds above 2666. I've ran my 3700X at 2666, 3000, 3200 and the full XMP of my ram of 3600 with zero performance change in gaming, benchmarks or general use. Did the same with a 5600X and saw performance difference. Seems the memory control in the 3000's has issues.
Been using this since 2020, haven't found a reason to upgrade yet. The fact that you can get this for under $100 and a compatible mobo for just as cheap makes budget builds pretty insane right now imo.
Looks like good value when combined with a entry mid ranged GPU and some OG sweet spot 3200 ram.
Really strange The RAM incompability, I also have for a couple of years being used my 3700X and on a B550 Gigabyte Aorus I am not shure if it is The pro or The elite, it is working fine at 3600mhz on a pair of Corsairs Vengeance!
I still use it, it still rocks!
Isn't "quick sink" just another term for tech yes lovin? Liked the "scrubbing" pun also.
Nice to see my 3700x and 7800xt in a video
I have a ryzen 7 3700x paired with 32gb 3600 ramm and a gtx 1080 FE. Playing hell divers on high settings, the FPS is around 85 with lows of 80. I have a 3090 on its way so time to upgrade cpu eventually 😊
thank you for this video. im currently using ryzen 7 3700x with MSI 6750xt. but only 1080p monitor. should i upgrade to 1440p to maximize?
I only had a 3700x for about half a year from late 2022 to like April 2023 cause I found a local seller selling a Ryzen 5700x unboxed for $100 USD, asked him why so cheap and he said cause he was gifted the 5700x & 5800x for his birthday so was getting rid of 5700x for cheap cause he’s not loosing money, so I bought it and sold the 3700x for $80 USD lol, I had just bought an RTX 4070 from an RTX 2080 as well so I wanted a better CPU
meanwhile I am building a file server for myself with ryzen 3 3300x. Would love to have 3700x, but the current used pricing in malaysia make it not worth it if I am not using it for main build. Saw some 3600, but those also have shoot up in used pricing.
i have that 7 3700x ryzen its good its in my spare computer yes it is fussy with the ram mine was to
I've recently built a 500$ gaming PC (3700x, 2070 Super, 32GB ram, 1TB NVME) mostly with used parts and could say the 3700x works really well considering I got it for a little under 100$. I am not sure how long it will stay relevant but for the games and apps I run it works great and very happy with the build.
I had 2070 super and went from 2600 to 5600x and saw a huge fps increase... the 2600 bottlenecked it hard.
The 3700x should match it well
I have an 3700x with Asus b450 Stix and it runs perfekt 4x8 Ram 3800mhz CL 16 1.45v
Any board you can fit a 5800x3d in made every single other cpu that fits a bargain but also ultimately a waste of time that could have been spent using the x3d and loving it. How much is your personal time and experience worth? After finishing work and having the time to watch all the video, i get it, paired with the right 2nd hand gpu, bang for buck its good. If i did not have a pc and low on cash. pretty had not to take this advise
Used this cpu for a couple months, just switched to a 5700x for the energy saving and cooler temps.
im using one, it is
I in rural Australia, everything needs to be posted.. On Ebay I believe the 6 cores Ryzen second hand are going for just a little to much.. I can get a tray 3600 or a 5500 for around a $150 dollars new but a Second hand 3600 between $100-120. The 3700X are selling around $150 so a better deal, but for gaming isn't any proof 8 cores are better then 6. I ended up buying a 3100 for $50 before posted, that was really a 4100 that still as not been posted, I was email by the seller that said it was a 4100. Around $200 dollars for a 5600 new is what I'm looking at now, that has PCI-E 4.
Everything I have heard is do not buy a KF if you want to use an editing software that supports quicksync. Even with a discrete card, the addition of the quicksync from the IGP is worthwhile. Honestly - I am of the opinion just do not buy a KF unless it's a strong discount. I will gladly pay the $20-30 to get the quicksync support and extra troubleshooting feature. Even for streaming, being able to use the quicksync encoder to take all of the load off both the CPU and the GPU can help.
i'm still using a ryzen 2700 (none x) and it barely ever breaks a sweat, i play some pretty cpu intensive titles too
Did you simply try to reinstall the DIMMs in the other bank of memory on the MB? This was the issue for me. Try bank B as per specs it has higher speeds supported.
I remember buying one of these and matching it with my 2080s. I legit got worse performance in modern warfare than my old i7 3770k @5ghz. As long as I wasn’t streaming the i7 held up. Ended up selling my 3700x and getting the 12700k when it came out crazy because the 12700k was so much better and ran way cooler too. Since I upgraded to the 13900k and ocd to 6ghz and still runs cooler than the 3700x lmfao crazy part is I’m still using the same cooling setup
Had no issues with the R7 3700X, 32GB DDR4 3200mhz and RX 5700XT custom vbios and plays and works well 1080p/1440p.
I just got a local deal for a 3700x, 500SEK. Which is pretty insane. All working and no bent pins.
Bruh that's very cheap
4:08 If they put 3D Cache memory onto the 7800XT, would that make it the 7800 X3DT?
I use a 3700x in my daily rig along with an RX5700, I get around 150 fps rendering 1080p video on h265.
seems r7 5700x when the new 3d ones come out will be a great pick up for budget or mid gpus
Hi, for me the probem between the two CPU's is the motherboard chipset which is the main bottleneck reason.
