Let's christen the new thread's first page with some ultimately pointless news:

Remember Der8auer? The German delid guy? He did a 1600X to 5.9 GHz on LN2, DDR4-3000 CL12. All cores enabled.

People who have jumped on already: What's best practice for Ryzen, one stick of X GB RAM, or two sticks of (1/2)X GB?

You know, that question never crossed my mind. I don't own one yet, but I'm so used to just slapping two sticks in and calling it a day.

Very curious to see what the answer is.

Hrm, I still haven't opened the 3600 I bought on sale earlier this year. Glad I didn't open it, should make it easier to sell it.

Looking for an air cooler for the R 5 3600 that I've had sitting around for too long. Anyone have a suggestion for something dead quiet?

I'll probably just go 'gently caress off' overkill and throw on a dh-15S.
