Just pre-ordered a 5900x at B&H Photo. Have dealt with them before. Very professional.

Can you still set xmp/docp with 4 stick of the same ram? ie will there be any problems?

I'm unsure regarding memory choice. Pairing with 5900x / mobo undecided yet.

Looking at either

• Trident Z RGB Series 32GB DDR4 3600MHz CL17 Dual Channel Kit (2x 16GB) or
• Vengeance RGB Pro 32GB DDR4 3600MHz CL18 Dual Channel Kit (2 x 16GB)
• Trident Z RGB Series 32GB DDR4 3600 CL19 Quad Channel Kit (4x 8GB)

So 4 sticks but slower or 2 sticks and a little faster. What would you go with?
Thanks

I'm going to go with "none of the above" unless you really want Hynix CJR. Here is your RAM. Pick the color/RGB you want:

Hope that works out for you. The Matisse supply situation last year was dreadful. Hopefully AMD will hit with more Vermeer chips this time around.

BH sounds tempting but as a caution, I preordered my 3970X from them. The order sat out there for a long time and had zero movement. I actually found the processor 2 months later at Microcenter at Christmas time. So over a month, they did no fulfill the order and I doubt it had that huge of a backlog.

I will try to pre-order again with them, but will be looking to Micro Center and Newegg to hopefully get it faster.

Yeah I'm not preordering from B&H unless I miss stock at newegg or AMD. Good luck to everyone trying to get a 5000 CPU today!

 

[Elfear]

Looks like Microcenter is in-store only.

 

[KentState]

MC here is listing stock for all parts except the 5950X.

 

[BTRY B 529th FA BN]

Yeah, no 5950X at my local MC either.. dang it, oof

 

[phillyman36]

Link isnt up on newegg yet

 

[KentState]

Sold out instantly.

 

[phillyman36]

And link is up and out of stock already wtf

 

[ddogg]

I managed to get a 5950x from AMD direct. It was very dicey but maybe I got lucky. I had both Newegg and AMD open and Newegg instasold in under a second . Pretty hyped right now. Just need a 6900xt and should be good upgrade wise.

 

[richierich1212]

Ordered a 5600X from Newegg. Can’t wait.

 

[krumme]

I think i perhaps got a 5600x before it was gone. Major retailer in my countrys site just colapsed before it was sold out. The hype is insane. No wonder i would have taken either of 5600 5800 or 5900. lol insane moments.

 

[DrMrLordX]

Damn, there was no way for them to make enough. Ha! Good on AMD for selling a lot of product.

 

[HumblePie]

I really wasn't expecting these to be sold out. Guessing it is going to be difficult getting their GPUs as well now based on what is happening for their new CPUs.

 

[richierich1212]

Damn there’s a ton of demand for these CPUs. The 18th is going to be another crapshoot for their GPU launch.

 

[krumme]

Wow. Anandtech review is down atm.
The internet is crashing in the world because of ryzen 3.

Edit. Kind of running slow now. Fun times.

 

[blckgrffn]

Hahaha, and you get Far Cry 6 for free with the CPU. LOL.

Not the same but similar to Nvidia bundling a CoD game with 3800/3900 cards.

The marketing departments must really have no models for the supply/demand issues that are going on right now.

Been refreshing at MC :/ Not going to drive down there and wait in a crowd with the pandemic rate shenanigans going on.

 

[richierich1212]

If you’re still trying to get one of the new CPUs, keep checking Newegg as their stock keeps going in and out of stock.

 

[blckgrffn]

Same. Sigh.

So, I posted a comment (on the xbox thread), it submitted, and then nothing loaded after that.

Hopefully these new CPU's don't have horrible stock issues like another recently released product.

 

[phillyman36]

Had the 5900x in my cart from Amd direct. Couldnt check out. Kept hitting submit and nothing happened.

 

[PrinceXizor]

Is it weird to be nostalgic about the site crashing due to a product release....
