Gaming PC Builds

got a 5600x, cant wait to use it on warband 

Imagine getting a 5600x and not a 6800x 

i saw a 5600x in stock and automatically bought it

some random irish website got like 10 of them

all gone now

Is the 5600x better than the cheaper 8 core alternatives for Intel tho? I haven't really looked into it but my mind says probs no

[Snikkel]

AMD is on the block now. Real believers like me who have been holding $AMD since €55,- know it's the future.
This is not the time to spare expenses. This is the time to go all out these flagship products that will last 3-5 years!
Ryzen 9 5900X and AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT for me!!!

My 1070ti is slowly dying

my 1070 FE is already dead

5600x has bscly the same performance as a i9 10900k in game

Yeah actually this.
It literally beats the 10900k in some games, and matches it in most others.
And bear in mind that's using Nvidia GPUs on the benchmarks from when it came out; using AMD GPUs to benefit from SAM will give even better performance.
AMD is actually a no-brainer at this point.

[John Price]

When you look at the benchmark results when using SAM the results are pretty negligable though?

Very little games really make much use of it?

[Snikkel]

SAM gains are pretty negligible. They tested it and only got like 4% fps boost in 1 out of 8 recent triple A games.
With either brand you are probably stuck waiting in a long ass queue before u finally get your component.

Right now AMD cpu and NVIDIA gpu combo is your best bet if you are going for max performance.
Besides that it's really hard to go wrong with either of them.

[John Price]

Not to mention SAM is a bastardised version of something that already existed so this is something eventually we could be seeing for Intel based CPU's.

The more impressive thing with AMD is actually the performance of the 6800XT and how far it can overclock, which could even go better if the limits in the Bios werent so large.

[Snikkel]

Ye, true. Even though i gotta wait a long ass time i'm probably going 5900x and 3080 ti or something.

[Shadey]

Still going strong with my 7700k and 1080ti
