3600@14-14-14-28 1.44volts 67ns latency Ryzen 3700X
Pros: -It's so pretty -It's so fast 3200mhz ram @3600 mhz 14-14-14-28 1.44 volts Memtest past 64ns latency aida -It's so much need for Ryzen -It's priced decently (thinking about getting another 16Gb for 109$!!!) -It's RGB that goes well with Gigabyte's X470 Gaming 7(RGB=ReallyFast Gaming Board) :} -Samsung B-Die (Sounds like a virus) -Replacing Hynix Vengeance Memory (this memory is terrible)that's 3000mhz c16 which is rated at 3200c16 that will only run at 3000 c16. This particular Vengeance module doesn't like Ryzen
Cons: -This one isn't black colored but still pretty THE PACKAGING WAS TERRIBLE. RAM NEARLY DIDN'T MAKE IT. WAS IN A ENVELOPE WITH NO PADDING. THE BOX WAS LITERALLY BENT AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE BUT BOTH STICKS SEEM TO WORK. The only thing that saved this ram was the heavy heatsinks during the shipping. Everything I have purchased from Newegg over the past 5 years seems to have been open-box that was advertised as NEW. This has happened with 2 motherboards, 1 kit of ram, 2 CPUs. I've been doing a lot of purchasing from other websites because of this.
Overall Review: -Seems to be the most legit Ram for Samsung B-Die around for the price -Even if you game at 4k it doesn't make a difference really but it will make the entire operating system much snappier and quicker with Ryzen 2000 or 3000. This is paired with a Ryzen 3700x at stock setting with XFR and a 360 radiator and Gigabyte Gaming 7 x 470 board with the latest F42e bios.
Speed
Pros: Fast speeds when back of pc is pointed towards to router. Back of pc has to.be pointed towards the router or it gets 100kb to 500kb.
Cons: Speed
Updated. Fans noise at 2800rpm. Grinding type. -10% power limit
Pros: Runs ok. Pushes a lot of air out the sides and rear. A smaller more compact card at the cost of heat. The card out of the box runs 100% fans speed. You need to use AMD software as Afterburner does not yet support this card fully. -10% power draw and -35 mv the card is stable with 60% max fan speed. (2500rpm). The fan will not make this grinding noise above 2600rpm. The card needs room on the side of your case for airflow. I recommend a case that has a vent or fan on the side for the gpu. Taking off my side panel 4000D corsair case dropped temps by 5c.
Cons: Fans make grinding noise at 2800rpm. To rectify the problem i undervolted card -35mv and -10% power draw which the card still will boost to 3.1Ghz and fan speed of 2500 rpm. My side panel open on my 4000D let's the card breath making the card drop -5c. But with these power settings the card does run 5c cooler and only lost 50hertz on boost clocks.
Overall Review: Cheaper card at the cost of fan noise and a grinding noise at 2600 rpm fan speed. Set the fans to max 60% -35mv and -10% power draw limit. Card will run at 3.1ghz at around 80c gpu Hotspot temp.
Intel still superior
Pros: 40ns of memory latency Samsung B Die My Ryzen 3000 systems 64ns 5.0ghz easily overclock Ryzen 3000 4.4 Runs cooler than my 3700X with a 360 radiator Very simple to overclock 14nm vs 7nm but near on par i.p.c. (Taiwan manufacturing) Intel used to be the (still are per node)leader but now are at a standstill. Very responsive compared to my Ryzen systems( haven't owned an Intel part since Core 2) Can get 10900k gaming performance or near it within a few percent.
Cons: I overpaid 20$ but if I would've waited on Ryzen to lower I would've saved hundereds on my Ryzen CPUs. If Intel lowered prices by 15% more AMD would be in some serious trouble. Don't think for a second that executives from companies don't play the consumer because they all do even another competitor will play along for the ride or whatever the bigger stockholders have to say. Even if the same stockholders own most of the stock of each competitor. This is why fanboyism is so ignorant. It's old tech now but it can compete with it's Taiwan competitor still that has much newer tech. 14nm++++ to infinity and beyond. Drawing well over 100 watts at 5.0 GHz but not really a con job for me. Not PCIE 4.0. A huge loss in my opinion but I have Ryzen too :). Paired with Aorus z490 Pro AX Aorus 1080 Ti. (A fast nvme drive makes it much better)
Overall Review: Worth it for gaming. Though I could've purchased two 3600 CPUs with coolers. That's what's crazy. Lol.
Looks nice comes with thermal pads
Pros: -Looks good -Comes with two long thermal pads for at least twice of use -Metal backing and front with clips
Cons: -Was going to install on my MSI X370 SLI PLUS board but my 1080 TI Aorus would be literally right against it -Too bad I couldn't test the thermals with it as I just purchased a PM961 OEM drive
Overall Review: -I have a 120mm fan attached to my HDD bay that blows directly on my 1080 TI AORUS and does provide airflow in between the GPU and M.2 drive. Seems like a bad idea to put a m.2 slot there instead of above or below the primary GPU slot.
Great sounding compared to turtle beach
Pros: -Studio Sound -Big cups cover entire ears (well for most) -Long cord. (newegg doesn't allow G ()D or Jezus to be said WTH!) CHRISITIAN HATING MUCH? -Sound DB is there. -Adjusting is easy. -Looks weird on my bald head -A steal at 38$ -Much better sounding than my Turtle Beach x12 headset and louder
Cons: -Can make you sweat
Overall Review: - Worth the 38$. Studio quality sounding for sure with high pitch and bass. JVC is a mid-range brand and is often considered cheap but really isn't cheap quality.
