    Every single average user is an idiot that deserves nothing but spite.

    The rage of idiots always is. Blame the node, the CPU started becoming unstable at temps over that. Global Foundries fucked them, intel fucked them harder. AMD was on a serious time crunch and money crunch when they were designing FX. That it was as "good" as it was is a miracle. They competed...

    They ran less hot than more or less every other processor because they hit a thermal shutoff point at 65c. For comparison, modern intel shuts off at 110 and modern AMD shuts off at 105. They also pulled a similar amount of power to the phenom chips, particularly when OCd.

    The main issue was that they started to require AVX2 because of compiler updates. Phenom doesn't even support AVX *1* so...

    The 12600k is still slower for games than the 7600 and is on an, effectively, dead end platform. The only better option is 13th gen and that just adds more power draw, clockspeed, and e-cores. The zen board is going to get, at least, zen5 sometime next year. It is indeed surprising that...

    11th gen locked i5, 16 gigs of DDR4, 500gb SSD, and a 3060ti for almost 1200 dollars? https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Vyor/saved/xBv4gs Boom, 1200 dollars. 4x the storage, 2x the ram, better GPU, infinitely faster CPU, better CPU cooling, better motherboard, better power supply, better case. And...

    no they don't. That has never been true.

    Don't bother with a premade, they'll sell you substandard parts that'll die as soon as warranty is over.

    That is... not how that works. Higher voltage creates higher temperatures, but you can absolutely kill a chip at 40c just by having too much voltage.

    That is not how that works. Voltage kills chips, not temprature. And that also depends on cooling.

    It wasn't just FX that hurt them, it was anti-competitive practices from Intel that lead to them being forced to rush the chips out on a broken process node.

    So 1440p on a GPU about on par with an RX5700XT with raytracing. And it still looks pretty good. That's also not the same game.

    It really doesn't, but ok.
