how is your 5950X treating ya?

It's like driving a Ferrari. You know you can step on the gas at anytime. Turning off all the power management improved things immensely.

I've still got a grin on my face.

So, you upgraded from a 4 core/4 thread CPU? My 4790K was a 4 core/8 thread CPU. It's wild that I'm back with AMD. Never thought that Intel could screw up their dominance.

No I haven't had a desktop since Opteron 165.

Now I need to wait 15 min just to make sure there is no severe reaction.

My work PC is on it's last legs. It's always been slow but it's even slower now.

Every now and then everything goes white and I need to drag a random window over the white spots to "clean up" so it redraws the programs.

Did a full reboot since it's my first shift. Waiting for it to boot while I nef.

I'm loving sitting in front of this stable system. Alight. Giggity. This is the part that I love. Stability. Just praying the video card doesn't die. Then I'm screwed! Just kidding. I have a backup GTX 970 Gaming X 4G if I need to.

You know all those peeps that sell everything they have and then something like this happens. Now, you need all those old parts and have to pay a premium. You'd think the apocalypse was upon us!
