BROKENKEYBOARD replied to JerraJones on AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D Processor - $462.76 Delivered @ Amazon US via AU
What about the 5700X3D instead? That was down to $320 yesterday.

Well that's just the CPU, a normal PC with dGPU could use 50-100W at idle to low loads. A micro PC might be able to do the exact same thing…

People usually complain about the VRM, not the chipset. This board has a weak VRM but it shouldn't have any issue with this CPU.

I don't know much about that or how heavily used it'll be but Intel with iGPU seems heavily recommended for it.

I wouldn't recommend a 5700X for server use because they have pretty high idle power consumption (~20W).

>(a lot less in some). That's because they tested using a 5600 XT so half the tests didn't have a CPU bottleneck.

As long as it's the TLC version. If it's the QLC versions I'd probably choose WD instead.

Those games are easy to run, even a $300 6600 should do well unless you play at 4K.

If it's only for games it's not a good match value wise, it'll barely be any faster than a 5600 or 5700X.

No game should be taking up 99% of a CPU, you probably have something running in the background that's hogging the CPU from the game..

The link says it does support HEVC decode? It's only AV1 that might be sketch but it should be just fast enough.

If you guys can sell PCs so cheap, would you sell parts individually? I only need a new CPU and motherboard.
