    Need PC advice... Help urgently needed.

    Hi guys, I need some PC advice asap... I´ve been running a powerful PC for about 30 years now, but the problem is i need a secondary (prebuilt) system to run some very demanding tasks. I´ve had some trouble with broken cassettes on my system, most likely because of the demanding software i run...

    "amdflaws.com" - What is this?

    Well i doubt i need to buy the top dog, i think that the i5 8400 will be worth buying... But then again what are AMD's new cpu's going to do? Intel is still king on the used market, but who knows that might change in the future...

    "amdflaws.com" - What is this?

    WTF? Why? I am actually thinking of buying an Intel CPU just because of their long(er) term value on the used market.

    Finally got my Ryzen 2400G APU up and running, overclocked, nice and snappy!

    You didn't call it those, before i indicated it was a figure of speech.... But yeah we all have our own opinions, and ours happen to differ severely....

    Finally got my Ryzen 2400G APU up and running, overclocked, nice and snappy!

    A dedicated dGPU even a used one, will be 10x better than the vega 11 graphics. But sure there's enough reasons to be find use for an APU, especially for a small form factor htpc for instance. But in a full fledged desktop for that price? Thing is the 2400G is priced to closely to the 1600...

    Too expensive... You can buy a 6c/12t 1600 for two tenners more... I might buy it when they drop the price.

    Maybe they are right and ya´ll are wrong... Then you need to put explosives on your 1000$ machines before it´s too late.

    AMD Ryzen Gen 2 Set For Q2 2018

    Are there any indications that the new zen+ motherboards will have onboard graphics?
  14. Peter Watts

    How does this make ANY sense? (GPU prices, even lower-end)

    We are not supposed to be mad, but we should embrace "technology" and pay up... (Sarcasm):eek:

    2200g and 2400g are Zen+??? I was under the impression that they are not.

    Budget gaming build - Intel G4560 or AMD 2200G / 2400G?

    No the 2400g is 4 cores 8 threads, and the 2200g is 4 cores/threads.

    Budget gaming build - Intel G4560 or AMD 2200G / 2400G?

    You guys are talking about "future proofing" yet AMD is phasing out the so called "old" ryzen cpu's lol... There is no future proofing, unless you decide to stretch out usage yourself. I myself don't really care if a platform is deemed "dead" by the masses, i care about my own objective...

    Budget gaming build - Intel G4560 or AMD 2200G / 2400G?

    I would just save up a little more, get one of the APU's and put a 1050ti (or follow up most likely to drop in April) card in there. Thing is the price for a 1050 ti or equivalent needs to be sub 200 dollars, for me to really recommend it right now. AMD have said the will keep the prices of...

    BIOS updates due to Spectre & Meltdown

    Well thanks for responding, but no need to patronise me. Enough people who have the motherboards, can post their experiences in a dedicated thread for instance.

    Find a list of intel compatible motherboards with bios updates against spectre/spectre?

    We´ve seen lists of affected cpu´s but where´s the lists of patched/fixed motherboards/cpu´s? Is there an existing list for end-users to find out which motherboards/cpu´s have been patched/updated against spectre/meltdown??? Like from 1155 till the current motherboards/cpu´s for instance? If...

    BIOS updates due to Spectre & Meltdown

    I don´t know if i should open up a new thread to discuss this, but would it perhaps be a good idea to create a comprehensive thread (list) with motherboards that have gotten updates? Or haven´t there been any updates worth noting to make such a list? It would make things easier for us used...

    And that's why the cheaper 2200G looks more attractive from a budget stance... The money saved can go into the ram.

    It will most likely not affect daily usage scenarios but gaming is affected 100%... Check out this Russian guy (don´t know if he used dual or just one channel 8GB 3200)... Performance takes a massive kick in the nuts if you ask me...

    AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G APUs performance unveiled

    It really takes the budget out of budget to be honest... With current ram prices it´s not even logical to budget build with new parts because of it.

    AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G APUs performance unveiled

    HUH so there´s almost no dual channel 8Gb kits available which work with Ryzen? You mean compatible with these APU´s or what?

    AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G APUs performance unveiled

    Can you do the benchmarks with 8GB dual channel memory? Because the whole ¨budget¨ gaming king gaming crap is annoying to read all over the web, it´s not ¨budget¨ gaming when a person needs to scrap out another 161/170 €/$ to buy 16GB of memory... It is budget if one´s willing to accept the...

    Found a palit 1050ti 4GB on Amazon.de for 165, you can even go 2GB version for cheaper and it will still crush the 2400G!

    AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G APUs performance unveiled

    I have seen how 8Gb 3200 dual channel performs (in games) with the 2400G, and it completely sucks donkey balls! These are not worth it for gaming with the current prices of ram!!! Fast 16Gb is needed to really make these shine in gaming, plus the gaming isn't even that great. Instead of buying...

    AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and Ryzen 3 2200G APUs performance unveiled

    To be honest the DDR4 prices are pushing me towards a used market combo (old/new) parts also... Throwing in a 1050ti and boom it destroys these in price/performance. (Sadly not in power consumption) What combo would you recommend? And i do think it's relevant to this discussion, because the...
