If you want to undervolt then you need a z790 chipset. It’s the only one that lets you mess around with voltage

Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto Intel•i7-14700K idle temperatures at 90 degrees and 5% load. The recent generations of CPUs suck.English1·2 years agoThat is almost certainly a mounting/cooler issue. The new Intel chips absolutely run way too hot, but not even close to your numbers op.
Mobos are just feature sets and nothing else. Buy the cheapest mobo that has all the features you want and supports the memory speed you want. There is 0 benefit to overspending on a mobo if you don’t need the extra features
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto AMD•Ancient Gameplays - RTX 4060Ti vs RX 7700XT vs RX 7800XT - The FULL GPU COMPARISONEnglish1·2 years agoNvidia isn’t competitive at the $400 price point. If you want Nvidia go up to $550 and get a 4070. 4060ti is trash
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto AMD•Got a little upgrade the other day... (R9 380 -> 7800 xt)English1·2 years agoThat’s gonna be a huge jump lol. Enjoy! 😊
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto AMD•AMD's last-gen Navi 22 GPU is still competitive against Nvidia's latest Ada Lovelace GPU — RX 6750 GRE beats RTX 4060 in a new reviewEnglish1·2 years agoThe cheapest 4060 right now is $290. For $310 you can get a 6700xt which is not only 20% faster but also has more vram.
Nvidia isn’t competitive in the mid range market at all right now. They are competitive in low end where the 3060 goes head to head with the 6600xt, and then the high end. At the $500 price point the 4070 beats the 7800xt in value, at $700 the 4070ti and the 7900xt being a tie, and at $1000 the 4080 beating the 7900xtx.
Amd is killing it at the $300 price point with the 6700xt crushing the 4060, and at $400 the 6800 crushing the 4060ti
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto Intel•What GPU should I pair my i5-13600k with?English11·2 years agoDoes the 3060ti not maintain 60fps raster in any game you are playing right now? If it does then keep it. Only upgrade when you can’t do 60fps
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto Intel•When do you usually upgrade your processor?English11·2 years agoWhen it can no longer maintain over 60 fps in a game I am playing. Usually works out to every 6 years or so
Very cool technology to be sure. Maybe eventually this tech trickles down to mainstream so it’s relevant to most people. Right now even enthusiasts will never even see one of those in person let alone use it, so it isn’t really all that relevant
12600k. For gaming everything higher tier makes a tiny difference relative to the price as 13th and 14th gen are just refreshes
Upgraded my 7700k for a 13700k in January. Wasn’t about to play Phantom Liberty at sub 60fps
No, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk
The only reason their gpus are discounted is because people aren’t buying them, and that in turn is because they both underperform and are buggy. If intel had a gpu equivalent to a 4090 in both performance and stability, you can bet anything they’d want $1599 for it
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto Intel•Intel Fixes E-Cores For Gaming, Doesn’t Give 12th & 13th Gen Users The Fix! APO TestingEnglish2·2 years agoThere are 2 possible answers here. 1 apo requires a specific new component on the cpu that older chips don’t have. Or 2, intel is just screwing old gen chips to pressure buyers into buying the 14th gen
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto AMD•AMD Preps Ryzen 8000G "Phoenix" AM5 Desktop APU Lineup: Ryzen 7 8700G, Ryzen 5 8600G, Ryzen 5 8500G & Ryzen 3 8300GEnglish1·2 years agoWhat even is the point of APUs anymore. All CPUs now have a basic gpu to run a display, and if you need more gpu power there is absolutely no way an APU will be good enough. Who is this even for? League of Legends players exclusively? I don’t get it
Mother-Translator318@alien.topOPBto AMD•With nvidia dropping the price of the 4070 to $549, I think AMD needs to drop the price of the 7800xt to $469 in order to stay competitive.English1·2 years agoAmd drivers are worse though. Both the 7900xtx and 7900xt had massive driver problems for almost 3 months at launch. I’m not saying Nvidia is perfect but they have issues far less often.
Also buying a gpu right now in general is a horrible idea as Nvidia are about to launch the super cards. If amd are smart we should see some huge price drops or else Nvidia will bury them if performance uplift is similar to 20 series super cards

If a game has no fsr but has dlss, amd is screwed. If a game has no dlss and only has fsr, Nvidia is fine. That versatility alone is huge with how mandatory upscaling is these days.
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto Intel•Is my 8th gen CPU compatible with a 10th-11th gen motherboardEnglish1·2 years agoPlease don’t buy a 4060ti… that is arguably the worst price to performance gpu I’ve seen in my life…
Mother-Translator318@alien.topBto AMD•AMD brands, does it really make a difference?English1·2 years agoSapphire and powercolor are always my go to
It can lower temps by about 5c. Is that necessary? If you are overclocking, water cooling or using heavy multi core workloads then sure. A contact frame can be had for $5 these days.
For gaming tho, no. Games don’t run hot enough for 5c to matter much
