I wonder how a full Navi 14 would match up? A card with the full 24 CU 1536 shaders that only Apple gets that can run at 1607 base, 1845 boost, and 8GB GDDR6 1750MHz memory. Guess that may come once AMD and TSMC gets the 7nm refinement process down for larger quantity of near perfect Navi 14...

The motherboard is only compatible if it has F2 or newer version of the bios. If the motherboard only has F1 you are stuck unless you can find a tech shop with a Ryzen 7 1700, Ryzen 7 1700X, or Ryzen 7 1800X. At any rate if its your motherboard it would be cheaper to buy a new B450 after they...

Wait the article says "national security threat; only its networking equipment did." Isn't this like arguing that Delorean's cars didn't violate US law only the cocaine did. How high legality speaking the one one product is becomes the issue not that the other things the company has is fine.

Its simply that Apple can make their mac pro with parts not from China. My guess is they agreed to a China only parts deal for low prices and now are stuck. Apple pay the tariff or buy parts from other places its as simple as that. Given Apple has most of congress in their back pocket this...

Intels use of after market cooler make them look good while totally losing price advantage. The 9700 ends up being the price counter part to the 3900x after you tack on the $100 cooler. The 9900 will have to compete against the 16 core 3950x.

Pretty good article tho I would have liked just a bit on motherboard cooling. Maybe something on MOS heatsinks, heatpipes, and M.2 thermal guards some motherboards include.

Just like with boot drives SSD's ability to replace the old HD depends largely on price. I'm not going to look at the SSD market for a secondary drive until it about 3rd the capacity to price. That said this drive is touching 4th the capacity which is a good step in the right direction. I...

From what I have seen of the RTX 2060 and 1660ti the new cores perform a bit better than their old 10x0's. That said not enough for a 1024 core 1650 to pass the old 1060 3GB 1152 cores. Now the old 1060 3GB kind of vanished because it was being out classed by a much cheaper RX 570 for $169...
