Also Z370 mainboards are generally more expensive than B350 ones so the entire "waah Ryzen is of no value anymore" thing some guys here have going on is really ridiculous.

Cygni posted:There is no physical way to get 8 Lake cores at 5ghz on a 95w budget, so we either lookin at a situation where it will just blow by the TDP, or something like the 8700 non-K where the chip will boost to that number for 30 seconds or so and then cut itself back to stay under the 95w budget, unless you go into the BIOS and let it ignore the TDP. Both, really. The TDP is theoretical already (for current Intel CPUs it's "all cores, base clocks, specific complex load") and even with current CPUs, turbo clocks or stuff like AVX pushed CPUs way past the listed TDP. At 3.6 GHz it should be a 95W CPU at least Also, Asrock had a warning up on their leaked micro site regarding i9 on H310 boards, so I'd expect the lower end chipsets (and probably even weaker Z370 boards) to struggle running turbo clocks for long, let alone constantly.

They'd probably prefer if fewer 14nm Z390 chipsets are sold for now, in favour of more Z370 which is still a 22nm thing.

Haha holy poo poo that i9 9900k power draw and temperature. Even that 5 GHz turbo running on all cores is a challenge that requires massive cooling and/or funny voltages. Good luck, guys with Z370 mainboards

I used to have a P45 mainboard that took forever to boot because Intel's AHCI BIOS spent about a minute looking for devices, that was fixed in some BIOS update though. In the end I wonder why people care about having to wait 15 seconds longer to boot considering that's a thing I rarely do more often than once a day.

I don't think that's it. The NH-U14S has the same "rating" for your CPU and that's an even bigger heatsink with bigger fans, so I think that's just Noctua playing it safe. To start: 85°C is still 15 degrees away from throttling so technically you could keep the computer running at that temperature under load for a long time. For a medium air cooler in a big tower case that's not great, though, even though the P400S isn't a particularly cool case (GN got a 3°C drop in CPU temperature and a 9°C drop in GPU temperature by removing the front panel). What's your ambient room temperature? Low 30s °C in idle is pretty normal for a non-mesh case, unless your room is really cold. What's your intake fan and where did you position it? The front of the case blocks a lot of the intake if the fan is not mounted in a lower/medium position. Unless there's a wall right behind your case, blowing air out the case's top instead of the upper rear isn't going to be a meaningful difference. But yeah, I would first check whether the fans are actually doing what you want them to do: Check that you're not powering them through a low noise adapter (restricting their RPM and cooling performance), confirm they're blowing air in the right direction, and check their speed in the BIOS or with some monitoring software.

# ¿ Mar 3, 2020 14:14 |

Oh that bit about the k-CPU makes sense. And yeah I meant all fans. The P400's air intake is very restricted so if you have a fan actually blowing the wrong way or running in "silent" mode on top of that, it might be bad

In case one tiny-rear end fan on X570 mainboards didn't do it for you, you can get Z490 mainboards with two: https://post.smzdm.com/p/apz36g99/ orcane fucked around with this message at 11:50 on May 2, 2020 |

Yeah it's a "regular" mainboard otherwise (with TB3 and other stuff stacked on top): I just loved that they stuck two tiny fans on there. The MSI and Asus m-ITX boards apparently also use a fan for the VRM stack. Gotta run those clocks somehow, after all.

Doesn't that require the next CPU generation anyway? You'd think they'll want to sell Z590 boards by then

I think it's too easy to say "hot and power hungry is all on motherboard manufacturers", Intel is setting the limits and could enforce them but for some reason chose not to. Instead, they're pushing even more MCE-style OC they're not calling OC through BFB. In the end, as long as mainboard manufacturers do somewhat reasonable +voltage OC (so, probably not what Gigabyte is doing with that board he tested ) they're probably happy to take more "longer bar = more better" wins.

Opteron was their first x64 server CPU similar to the Athlon 64, and got a bunch of market share when the Intel options were Xeon furnaces based on Netburst, or Itanium if you wanted 64bit They started to lose market share again when Xeons went Core-based, the new Opterons couldn't quite compete because Phenom was okay but not as competitive. Bulldozer came after that.

Yeah they kept the Opteron name for server CPUs until Zen/Epyc. Previously they were just Athlon too, just with a different suffix I think.

IIRC they have specific issues with Denuvo but they should run with workarounds (turning off the Atom cores) for now. Other recent Ubisoft titles like Ghost Recon Breakpoint, Far Cry 6 and Watch Dogs Legion show up in some of the reviews so you could try to get approximate results from there.

I have USB 3.0 flash drives that do their USB 3 speed for about 10 seconds then they overheat and throttle to under USB 2.0 speeds for the rest of the transfer, if they don't just stall out completely after a while. It's amazing.

Card readers are one of the obvious points where manufacturers try to save another 50 cents without a lot of people noticing or complaining about it. Some reviewers point them out in notebook or phone reviews and they're often fairly crappy. And a $5 USB card reader (that's actually sold for $50) is not going to be great either. You can still do it but then you have to actually research a) fast cards and b) fast card readers (vs. just finding a fast USB thumbdrive). USB 3.0 SSDs are one alternative, or you get a decent (again, you have to find one that isn't awful) enclosure with USB 3.0 and UASP and an okay SSD and make your own external USB SSD.

Speaking of cheap parts. Some LGA-1700 boards for Alder Lake come with a socket and retention mechanism design that easily bends once the CPU is put in, to the point the base of the CPU cooler can no longer properly transfer the heat because it's not actually connected to the entire heat spreader anymore: https://www.igorslab.de/en/bad-cooling-at-alder-lake-problems-at-socket-lga-1700-on-the-lane-among-all-remedies/

It's not just "don't wanna", you trade these hypothetically more efficient PSUs for excessively complex mainboards you're replacing a lot more often. I don't want to know what sort of cooling abomination you'd have on a 12VO version of one of today's extreme OC mainboards for $1000. And good luck with ITX boards.
