intel is niche is pushing for streamers/video editing its whats theyve pushed since the 9900k was released... i tested my friends 9900k vs my streaming pc which is a 3700x


i absolutely agree with you that amd > hands down its cheaper and universally better

i might just had a meh chip but his 9900k beats my 3700x by 1.5-3% i also dont have my streaming pc oc very high

so could just be that... but since i stream regularly its a lot (i know oc doesnt degrade ur parts that much but still i dumped alot into the pc so eh)

it all boils down to what software/games you are using if you using a software/game that can utililze more cores or even part of the software that uses more cores, if I rendered in cad id be all over amd right now but I only use parts of cad that few stronger cores wins along with games


you keep talking about niche for video editing and streaming but thats amds strong point unless using software or part of it that is serialized

and then there is this guys tests here on streaming

entirely unconvinced it's the motherboard, the extreme6 is extremely well built even compared to some of the top z97 boards of those days



[x] doubt



could be a likely culprit but that would be difficult to pinpoint and would likely carry over to a new build anyway unless amd interacts with drivers differently (then it would be intel at fault anyway, no?)



all of this is wrong, intels niche is having the best performance at the highest end when looking at single threaded tasks, amd has taken over the multicore world because even if they aren't #1 they're within a margin of error and massively discounted (cheaper in general) to intel

all in all, my woes have been solved, and i'm happy even with a kinda meh bios for ryzen2 so far on my c7h as far as ram support but it's running at spec.

Carry over to new build?
How the fuck would it carry over to new build?
Or you mean windows install?

i'm saying assuming the only change was cpu mobo and ram, and all the software, files etc were the same, wouldn't the system hangups still happen if it were a driver issue?

but yes, by build i meant just changed parts same install

What parts were changed on same install

i dont know if you aren't reading, but the cpu mobo and ram..

so you are saying after mobo change windows wasnt reinstalled?

or refreshed on windows10?

and all the software has been configured for different cpu?

nah i didn't reinstall and still no issues

you can swap platforms without reinstalling -- there isn't any problems
it's just recommended as a precaution to avoid headaches later
