Hey Jufes, AMD just revealed ZEN 5 and the 9950X Zen 5 CPU competing with the 14900KS, coming in July. Max clock speed is 5.70 GHZ (same as the 7950X), with a 16% TO 40% IPC increase. I still think the 14900KS is competive with EKG Delta TEC 2 cryocooling, but if you buy a 9950X or 9950X3D for an RTX 5090 (which you SHOULD ;) ) your investing in a EKG Delta TEC 2 cryocooling anyways. What's your opinion of Zen 5 versus 14th and 15th generation? I personally think the Intel Core i9 14900KS and the 14900K, with the proper delid, direct to die and EKG Delta Tec 2 custom loop cryo water cooling custom loop is nearly as future proof as AM5.
I have an all asus build, Asus rog strix rtx4090 Asus z790 maximus hero i913900k G skill trident z 6400mhz Asus ryujin ii 360 Asus thor ii 1200w So then is this setup capable of streaming 2 monitors, obs and twitch?
For GPU blocks I have had mostly Bitspower and Hydro Copper. No problems with either one, and only owned Hydro Copper because they were the only block available for the Kingpin GPUs. I do have an Alphacool block on one of my 4090s and a Bitspower on the other one and there is no difference in performance. I've never had to use their customer service, but I would suspect that Alphacool would be better if I needed to. I did have a Barrow block once and it was OK except that none of the screws that came with it were the correct size. I had to buy all new screws. It wasn't worth the hassle to ask for their support for the extra $5.00 it cost for new screws.
15th gen is no HT, and yes its slower. Have seen the last two batches of ES chips sent out. Latest one is almost as fast as a 13900k in cinebench, Gaming is well abysmal. So here is hoping the next set of ES's sent out are better. The latest is only that fast through overclocking on cinebench that gets it close to a 13900k. Big reason I got a 14900k and Apex Encore over the past two weeks. Riding it out until 17th gen with stacked cache.
The Asrock phantom gaming itx has been a great board and has had 12 bios updates over the last 1.5 year so they are supporting it way more than any other manufacturer i've owned.
I give you thumbs up on the video but I still dont understand why you never show the voltages after a tweek, thats so suspicious and anticonsumer, its like you where hidding it un porpuse whitch its very dissapoining if you are, dont get me wrong I appreciate the value that you bring and the work that you put showing that the board can do 8000+ but I rather go look it on a overclocking forum that having to split the time in both parts, Its just a thought maybe i dont represent what the majority of your audience thinking but its my opinion.
@@OdinAlgeronWTF? Stealing what? A vdd2, vddq or vccsa voltage? That does not make any sense, What's secret about that? Thats so lame if indeed it's worry about some random optimizer and not about been full transparent with his audience, this is a gaming and overclocking channel not a "here you have half of the true because I want to monetize you and now you have to pay me if you want other half" that's BS, I don't think that's the case, it seems more like sponsor video and he is shoveling high voltage into the ram to be able to make 8400 or 8600 not having to dial in the voltages or losing time in that.
Price matters. Reliability of operation is the main thing. Asrock has always been like a used Asus. Apex has never had any questions over the past 10 years. And I easily run 8400c36 2x16 on Apex, but there are almost no more FPS in games)). The days of Intel 2600k with 50% overclock are over.
Hey, bro, I am gonna be that one guy and say this, I am glad you embraced the baldness, fuck hanging on to that shit. Bald heads is the way to go if you are losing hair, go Michael Jordan times, or straight Onyx I am glad you cut that shit, shave it, and it's gonna look clean as f. Some people freak out about transition, but your head is actually shaped normal for that. EMBRACE THAT SHIT, my dude!
*BOTH B760I Lightning WiFi & Z790i Lightning ARE EXACTLY THE SAME BOARD!! FRIGHTNINGLY SO MUCH, THAT ONLY DIFFERENCE IS THE SATA IS RAD 0 COMPATIBLE ON THE LOWER BOARD NOT NVME! CHECK OUT SMALLFORMFACTOR DOT NET SIDE BY SIDE COMPAIRASON! HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE WITH $$$ PREMIUM??!!*
SO what benefit is 8200 vs 6400 for true gaming? wasted money if you ask me.. 2% gains for $1k + more.. Stupid. You spend all that to be slower within a years time.
6800-7200+ ish range anything after that especially for just gaming returns are diminishing, IF you did notice or get gains in fps you wouldn't notice it tuned 8000 MT/s vs idk tuned 7200 MT/s you won't really notice a difference outside of benchmark's. Same goes for AMD 8000 MT/s in 2:1 mode Starts to outperform (slightly) 6400 1:1 but again outside of synthetic benches you won't notice a difference. And to the retard that said 6400 is shit vs 8000 their really isn't a a big difference manually oc 8000 with have more bandwidth in Aida 64 but may lose in PYprime.
@@borisgrishenk0 I have the Z790 Riptide (13th gen mobo, not the new one with wifi) with teamgroup 2x16 7200Mhz with a i7-13700K and it works very well.
I’m just curious when you do these test what are you measuring? For example are you measuring the speed, productivity or something because I’m new to the PC world and I still would like to learn more about PC products
@@FrameChasers oh I see. However, when you do these assessments, what do you specifically look for when you are testing these boards. Like I say I’m still new 😅 I’ve been looking at your channel and you convince me to get the Azrock nova; it is a great board
He does it purely for gaming what is stable on XMP using Karhu for 24hrs to make sure it’s stable it’s more reliable and probably safer than y-cruncher and other brutal benchmark apps for example it won’t degrade your cpu. what gives the best 1% lows and or lowest frametime. For the best all out gaming experience. Then his other services testing hardware pre binned by him that will just work. To telling people what he knows to make it just work. I don’t use his services but I do like his content and being an old xoc enthusiast that just games now I can figure it out myself still. Just like how I know how he gets Teamgroup kits to work at 7800-8200mhz on an Apex Encore. Bios is a little different. He does not come out and say it because there are people that will take his information that could never figure it out themselves and use it to make money.
avoid these intel boards for all kinds of probs - it is a lottery, don't gamble - instead wait for amd new zen5 which will dominate and may hit 9000mhz
