*NOTE* - Most people are better off on the consumer level platforms, I have a comparison of i7-8700K vs Ryzen 7 1700 here - ruclips.net/video/iXqfaQU7UzE/видео.html
Unless you really need the features of X299 or X399, your money will go much further on the mainstream platforms reviewed there.
I got an i9 7900X for my system at Microcenter for $799.
It helped me get running a month or 2 sooner for the savings.
Totally worth it.
sorry to be so offtopic but does someone know a way to log back into an instagram account?
I was stupid lost my account password. I appreciate any help you can offer me
@Josue Darwin instablaster :)
@Silas Rafael i really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
I see it takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Silas Rafael it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account :D
Dear Tech Deals, please change your audio setup back to how it was during spring 2017.
Your sound quality was so mich better then. :)
{return -1;} plis
This is true; Tech Deals please fix
I'm not even planning to buy X299 but I'm watching because I love your content. Cheers!
I love my X299 setup. The consumer Z platform was my bottleneck. I went with a 14 core 10th gen X processor from Intel and it is a beast.
I currently have a a X299 system:
Intel i9 7940X
Asus X299-A
64GB of DDR4 2666Mhz Corsair LPX
Asus Strix OC 1080Ti
2 Samsung 1TB Evo SSD's.
Corsair H110i
I currently run it at stock frequencies so 3.1Ghz-4.3Ghz temps on the CPU have never exceeded 49C when running at 4.3Ghz and I've been very pleased with it thus far.
The 14-core chip? Nice; have you tried delidding and OC'ing?
Joshua KIm never had to delid even idling I get 22-24C as for OC'ing probably will after I've had it a year and i put the system into my Phanteks Enthoo Primo case with dual 480mm Rads and a Monsoon Bay Res.
For now though its way more power than I need for playing Witcher 3, Division, Star Citizen etc in 2K ultra settings when I'm not working a 40hr a week warehouse job.
That’s insane, what is your ambient temps? That’s like... ambient at idle. What’s your full load temps after a couple hours?
Delid and overclock.
@James Brand thats crazy people make it seem you have to delid to use those cpus... even the i7 7820x ppl say you have to delid...
This channel is really taking off. Look at all the new subscribers. Great work!
Was thinking of picking up a 7820x but got a ryzen 7 1700x and im very happy with it :) And saved a lot of money (about 300€)
Congratulations for this clear video. I have a 7820X running since September on a cheap X299 Mobo (MSI SLI PLUS). Everything that you say here I agree with. I couldn't have said it better. Continue with the good work and thanks for sharing all your research and testing.
Great point is that these are for those who want to go for the max. Most people don't need either one, but if you do, it's soooo nice to have some great choices out there!
Man, I remember last year, when I basically had to step up to the X99 platform, because when i factored in the expected (and extra) expansions that I was planning on doing with my latest machine, I realized that on most boards, I would have run out of PCI-e lanes before I even added in the sound card, let alone SSD's, or a second GPU for SLI/xFire.
to be honest, there is a use for the TR 1900x. in my case is GPU rendering. its a singlethread application that require multiple graphic cards. so the 64 PCIe lanes makes sense, and the base clock speed is higher than the 16 cores. also its a sweet deals for GPU rendering server if you cant afford EPYC or Xeons
i just noticed, and im both sorry and impressed, at how nearly seamless your cuts are. if it wasn't for the audio i would have missed it. my kind of quality of work there
No nonsence, straight talking. Great info!
X399 for me
PCI Express lane heaven for virtual machines
Along with Vega Cards for compute power as that's about the only thing Vega is excels at
Nice haircut Mr Tech Deals
Yet to setup my rig
Yes, I run Linux
They have been many teething issues with Ryzen
However most have been sorted

Wendell does a lot of amazing stuff with both platforms
11 weeks of research and I now finally have a little more clarity. I cannot thank you enough for these finance to performance + needs breakdowns to help me make more informed decisions. Not only are you helping me to help myself with particular goals and needs, it's helping me to help others when explaining things on this particular level.
Branching out from being a tech support person and Consumer gamer only person into a more Prosumer gamer, producer and streamer goals and needs driven person, has been a confusing time after several years of not keeping up with hardware developments.
You've lifted the curtain of confusion in a fragmented market where people like me are making serious transitional changes into territories unknown and I want to thank you for that. You have definitely made a difference and I look forward for more to come.
I always watch your vlog because I really love the way you describe
you say intel cpus on sale are important but not threadripper. threadripper sales are insane, 20% off is massive
I know, the TR 1950X was at $799.99. Crazy AF
Your videos are the best. The level of details you provide are second to none. Keep up the good work.
I love the level of professionalism you bring to all of your videos! Very informative, you also helped me make up my mind on what to go with for a rendering work station. Huge fan, keep up the great work!
You bring up a lot of great points. I don't see a reason for X299 until these new chips that are looking to be of great value for the prices. (:
Wonderful, Tech Deals is one of the best Hardware's adviser on You Tube. So clear and always focused on the point. Your review about EVGA 1070 FTW led me to buy it with no concerns.
Brilliant review. You just answered my question. At 9:02 You say you have 64gb of RAM, and use more than 50% for video editing, well when I do 3D simulations or fire or smoke sims, it eats RAM, so clearly I need more than 32gb. Thank you Tech Deals.
Remember TR has ECC support too, which X299 doesn't.
NOne of you use ECC though,
Is that ram cheaper? DDR4 prices are death.
My build was based in this guy's opinion a and reviews #trusted
this dude could take over the world and i'd be okay with that
Discovered your channel while looking for information about how SWTOR does with newer tech, your work is amazing, I love how easy you make everything to understand especially for someone who isn't tech savvy. Thank you so much for that! I'm looking at building a small form factor PC because I don't have the space for large builds and I move around a lot. Do you think you could do some informational videos about building small computers for light gaming (I play SWTOR the most and Star Craft a little. All I really care about is making them look as pretty as possible while playing for immersion.) and Photoshop work with some light and occasional content creation (I like to upload recordings of my GSF games to share with my friends for example.)
Very professional as always.
Love your videos as you explain everything very articulately. I'm in the U.K. and love your no nonsense serious approach to what we all want to know and understand.
Happy new year to you man and thankyou for your great sharing of knowledge 👍🏻
Your videos are constantly getting better, and Im really liking the new and improved thumbnails. Keep up the good work!
This is by far the best review I have ever seen. Thank you very much this is really helpful because I was stuck on iBuypower trying to choose motherboard an CPU lol until I saw this video.
Hi tech deals!!! Nice work as always!!!
👍👍👍
This man should have been my teacher . As if you are asking and he is answering your questions immediately ... Morocco here :)
The only videos that get straight to the point. Love it.
I think you are the best reviewer and the best computers channel around , really , you explain all the topics well and you're probably the most honest one among everyone I've seen, I love watching your videos, you really deserve a lot more subscribers and I hope you reach them soon :) . I'm agree with you on the subject, the X299 series is not a fail at all as a lot of people define it , indeed is a series that offers many features and many performances, I see it as much as a series projected to the future, obvious also has flaws, one among all that the famous TIM of Intel, would have been much better to use the solder on the top chips of the range.. I am assembling a PC with an i9 7900X (I bought it new for a great price , otherwise I would have chosen the 7920x) for gaming , some works and multitasking and I think I could not choose better, I wanted all the features that the X299 series offers including a possible SLI x16/x16 that with an 8700K and the Z370 series I could not do , plus I use 2 SSD NVME.. AMD this year did a great job and I hope they continue so but for my use I excluded it regardless, I am a demanding gamer and Ryzen does not offer great performance in games , threadripper even less in fact I see it more than anything else a series for professionals users who play only occasionally or do not play at all, for the rest both platforms are excellent and certainly under a professional point of view AMD this year did better but for a 360° use , I think Intel is still the best choice :) .
One thing I've noticed when people compare x299 and x399 the fanboys always say stuff like "intel has the 18 core so x299 wins" which it does in performance. . .until you start looking at epyc because for $400 more you can get a 32 core epyc which will blow the 18 core out of the water lol
But can you use the 32 core Epyc in Windows 10 Pro (The OS recognizes the 32 cores 64 threads)?
The only thing I can find about that is windows 8 (64 bit) supporting 256 cores, I doubt they would go down, but either way if you are even thinking of getting a $2k+ processor I'd hope you have a specific use case and know what it will work with
Intel has a deep learning 64 core 256 thread chip at super super super low clocks and poor IPC, but it’s supported by windows. I don’t see why 32 wouldn’t be
Best Tech deal channel of all time!
That thumbnail and when you explain all of we get it with smile, i like it Mr.Deals, im very Helpfully.
X299 HEDT NEEDS delidding and a custom water loop
I never ever considered X299 or X399, and TBH I don't even understand all that enthusiastic info/terms lol, but somehow I still enjoy watching the whole video
Hello! Great information! I love this channel! I have a question.. I am a content creator, I've been rendering videos at h265 lately with an old I7-5820k (x99). I'd like to improve my rendering and other task. If I can stay with x99 chipset, what CPU you recommend me to upgrade to? Or do I have change to another chipset? Let me know!! I can't find a good source of answers. Thanks in advance.
Why have they brought back serial ports for the mouse and keyboard on x299 motherboards. Just asking...
wow! i love this guy's reviews...He is HIGHLY professional
Thousands of people own expensive sports cars like Corvettes, Vipers and they do not need them. They would be better off to take the bus.
What I am really saying is we need a new motherboard format. One for rich enthusiast focused on cooling the board components. It needs to be bigger and be a work of art.
Hello! I intend to replace my Z270 Asus MB (Strix e). I want to be able to run several virtual machines and add a graphics card for computation. It seems to me the X299 would handle the virtual machines better (more memory lanes) and it would handle one extra GPU without problem. Is my analysis correct? Is the X299 still a good chipset in 2021? One thing that attracts me is that I can find these MBs at a reasonable price. Thanks!
WOW! Another review? I thought you would take time off to rest and enjoy your family? Thank You for your dedication to us. Godspeed! 1 Thumbs Up added...
Beautiful explanation .. thank you so much ..
Do a comparison of itx cases and other itx form factor stuff in general.
I7 9800x or i9 9900k?
I know the 9900k has slightly better benchmarks, 9800x is slightly more expensive but uses the x299 chipset. Really don’t know what to get considering the 9900k is probably the last card that uses the 1151 socket.
Bro love your videos!!!!
That was a lot of detailed information n a short video....i will be dreaming of threads and cores and channels... :)
What happened to the audio?
Very informational pc channel. thanks!
Where to put radiator on cooler master masterbox 5 Rgb? No vents are present at top for it ....should i place it on one of the Rgb fan?and if yes do i have to remove that Rgb fan or can i have it on the other side of my radiator?
Could you make a video or give an advise about best GPUs for pci express 2.0 x16
On the acer aspire e15 (550 dollar version) is it okay if I put a 4gb ram even though it came with 8gb ram also how much will it cost and if you can, can you link it because I’m kind of a noob when it comes to all this, keep up the great content
I need advice for these combos (i want to buy a combo that can last me for 10 years like my i7 970, graphics card is RX560 4GB because my job workload is cpu dependant - i create programs for companies and recode car endgine computers, SSD is Samsung 850 PRO 256GB aditional storage is 2xWD Black 4TB 7200RPM, power suply has 2x8Pin eps connectors Cooler Master v850)

I am doing an X299 (i9 7900X) build with the Asrock X299 Taichi XE.
Awesome board, loading it up with Optane in RAID0.
Linus' company is struggling with 8K video edits on a Core i7-6950X with CUDA acceleration on a Quadro P6000 + Red Rocket X. Would an i9-7900X or i9-7920X (or TR 1950X for that matter) do better?
I think they would be best served by a dual-socket EPYC system. 64 cores.
Are the new 9th gen i9s going to make these 2066 i9s obsolete? They have better power consumption and look very similar and cheaper :/
Looking to build a new rig for heavy rendering etc.
I went with and AMD Threadripper 1950X love it!
your awesome to watch man really good tips that helps peeples like me who cant decide hahaha
Hello, can I ask how is the sound on the X299 msi board?
Hello and welcome to Tech Deals. :)
so this has nothing to do with this video but I still have to ask, are three monitors easier to run than 4k since 4k is 4x 1080p?
I hate that all those X299 mobos don´t have HDMI or displayport outs, they should at least have two video outs. Why is that? If you don´t care about gaming and just want the board for a workstation, you are forced to buy a videocard. And all those boards use optical SPDIF, why not offer the coaxial out too? Optical have less quality than coaxial, at least offer the SPDIF out headers on the mobo, like gigabyte does.. Most of those IO on the back are never used... At least put something usable in there.
Did you get the world mouse pad from Wendell at Level1Tech? I am getting one as well.
best motherboard for i7-8700k with 2 1080ti for gaming and video render in 4k?
"Does this ram work on ASUS ZENITH EXTREME ALPHA motherboard and AMD TREADRIPPER 2990 WX Processor..??"
For ASUS ZENITH EXTREME ALPHA and AMD TREADRIPPER 2990WX PROCESSOR there are no RAM hitting 3600 frequency on QVL.. All are below 3000MHz.. As ASUS ZENITH EXTREME ALPHA has XMP 2.0 Feature on it.. can Trident Z Neo or Trident Z Royal would b suitable.. As ROYAL complies with both intel and Amd mobo would it be safer to go for it out of QVL..
Anyone with some experience in overclocking that can help me with a problem? Want to overclock the i7 8700K to 4,5 GHz (permanent OC). Using a Noctua NH-D15 CPU cooling tower. Is it necessary to delid the CPU if i wanted to go to 4,5 GHz? What is a good temperature line that the CPU should stay below to reach at least 5 years of lifetime? Below 80°C? Just an approximation, nothing specific. Would be awesome if someone could help.
Btw, awesome video! Not gonna fanboy here but honestly your videos are more informative, serious and very fluently spoken without any grimaces unlike another big tech oriented youtube channel...
My fast Moring video & good video.
Hey, a questuon I have for you. My graphics card broke, I upgraded my monitor and I need the cheapest graphics card that will be able to handle 4K at 60hz. I do NOT game. All I do is watch videos, browse web and check emails. My PC specs are old so I dont have any HDMI on my motherboard. Thanks.
Fynn East you can go check out his gpu videos. He explains which ones are simply for a 4k display
GT 1030 - amzn.to/2neyl3j
About $70 or so, those will output 4K @ 60hz
Great job 👍
finally someone mentions that this platforms are used for scientific applications and not only "content creation"
ok so i need a no bs reply for streaming and recording/editing 1080p/1440p videos whats the best choice ryzen 7 or i7
i have bought my ram already which acording to pcpartpicker will fit both ryzen and intel boards but im waiting on the cput to come down in price to buy the 8700k
should i just buy and r7 17-- or keep waiting on the 8700k to drop in price?
seras gaming 8700k will drop in price when ryzen+ appears, which will be muuuch better. Buy 1700 and OC or wait for 1700+ in february
ok let me put it like this at stock speeds which will be the most time effective chip in editing 1080p/1440p
will the r7 edit a 1080p video in a timely manor meaning 20min video=10min of rendering or is the 8700k going to take that exact same clip and be done in 1min thats what im asking the pricing really dosent matter that much i just want the best cpu i can get for editing and streaming without going x299
I've just bought Intel x299
chipset atx pro with
Intel i7 7800x 6 core 4gh
240mm enclosed liquid cooler
16gb DDR4 core
500gb SATA3 SSD 420MB/S

With windows 10 64bit home edition. I have no idea about computers just got over serious lag during games and making music, am I going to hsve any problems with my selection and what should I hsve changed any help is appreciated.
To be honest you should have buyed a threadriper 1950x instead just my opinion if you are playing in 4k Because the CPU that you got will bottleneck the GPU
Anyone used a Corsair 600Q? I'm thinking of getting it.
X299 sli plus by msi for 220 and a 7800x for 310. Found it on amazon. For the price it makes sense totally.
Not good for gamers sadly. I guess it comes down to what you use it for.
Versus Why isn’t it good for gamers? It has quad channel memory and more pcie lanes and 6 cores 12 threads. What does the 8700k have over it? Maybe 5 fps due to clock speeds? At least it’s available unlike coffeelake
Has to do with its use of mesh. Even overclocked 7800x is only on par with Ryzen 1600 in gaming. In most games the 8700K beats it by 30fps. www.reddit.com/r/intel/comments/6olfxz/comparison_core_i77800x_skylakex_vs_core_i78700k/#bottom-comments
ruclips.net/video/PKX9Bcxnd7U/видео.html
Ring bus is faster than the mesh for gaming. You can toy with overclocking different parts, but i7 8700k is the better bet. Every other application is another story.
any chance for review laptop with razen apu ?
TL;DR- get X399- more cores cheaper (yes I know the i9 7920XE has a 20 core but it's 2,000), 64 PCIe lanes on the entry level CPU and top level, quad lane ram, but it is a bit slower
Please have the old audio quality you used to have.
Are you still active on LTT?
7:06 you said it mate.
Which cpu i should i buy for gaming and some rendering I7-7700k or I7-7840X
skip both of those and go for the 8700k
Yep 8700k beats both
thanks
any idea why i can't hit 4ghz on 1700x. my vcore is 1.45v nb 1.25 but i've got slow ram 2400mhz 2x8. msi 370 carbon or something like that.
also how far can you overclock 2400 1.2v ram? I tried and it crashed when i tried 2666 with all the right timings and dram voltage at 1.35v
my friend has the same problems with MSI ryzen motherboards, they dont work that well for ocing cpus or ram.
What's your LLC level at/how much Vdroop do you get?
As far as memory goes you can go up to 1.45V according to AMD but most should be able to do 1.5V and you can use this cool tool to easily OC it www.overclock.net/t/1640919/ryzen-dram-calculator-overclocking-dram
Awesome!
The x299 is a good option is you have a lot of money. It is the best of the best. But at a cost.
Keep it up bro
Sry men i agree with you on many videos but this no,just no.x299 or skylake-x is a total failure.Ridiculous power draw,heat and cpu based pci-lanes.That's total bs.O yeah and lower cpu cache.Everyone agrees that skylake-x was a mistake and should never exist.
My honest opinion is if anyone want to do video rendering ,gaming or anything else anything from skylake-x 8 or lover core versions are shit when you can buy a ryzen 8c16th or i7 8700k and have both a great gaming system and for anything else and very close to the 8c16 skylake-x,which are are premium price for cpu and mobo.
Power draw & heat only get ridiculous if you go Der Bauer on the chips. With a regular and sane overclock they perform great. Apart from Kaby-X, which is universally scorned for good reason, nearly all the bullshit about X299 is due to ignorant tech tubers who have no idea what they're talking about.
In the real world, both X299 and X399 are wonderful platforms that have different strengths. Both are really strong at what they do well, and I'm very glad we have them.
i9-9900K or i9-9820X?
Cannonlake ftw! ☕😍
Probably is going to be laptop only. It's the Broadwell of 10nm which means better IPC but no frequency to carry it.
😍 9th Gen Intel supposedly all CPUs will have hyperthreading, yay ☕☕☕😍
The 14 core is the best it beats threadripper 1950X both editing and gaming. 14 core intel x299 is the sweetspot for everything
God with my new monitor I feel like I'm sitting on the other side of his desk.
yes
U shouldnt buy amd cuz u dont need those threads for gaming. Also the lower clock speed lowers ur fps. For rendering? Lol if u still render with a cpu. Gpus are like 5x faster
You should get a better microphone I think.
Hello, do you think i can get 150-170 fps at 2560x1440p with 1060 3gb and i5 7500 or i5 8400 in overwatch?
-Graphic settings:
Render 100%, Graphic Quality:High, Texture 16x, Shadow: Low, SMAA High.
Everything expect it Off/Low
nice
In like 3 or more years I’m gonna get X599
I am an extreme enthusiast I don't know why
X299 was dead the day it came out.
Hello. Video ok :)
