Buy an am5 platform with a 7000series chip?

Looking at a r7 5800x/xt. I think this may be the route to go.

Hi. I currently have a well used i7 2700k@4.8ghz that isn't cutting it anymore for 1080p ultra gaming. Im out of the hardware/platform loop so I thought I'd start here. Im looking for something mid-range (price wise) that has good overclocking abilities similar to my current 2700k. Im looking...

I currently play cod warzone at 1080p ultra and am experiencing FPS drops to 40. Is a CPU upgrade going to fix the issue or am I looking at a completely new build with GPU? I currently have an old 2700k @ 4.8ghz.

I figured it out. I had a bad terminal on my cat5e so replacing it with a new crimp worked. Thank you!

I am running windows 10. Will have to double check bios

I apologize for this dumb question but I can't seem to find the answer. Does the motherboard listed support 10/100/1000? It says intel gigabit ethernet but I cannot get it to connect to 1000mbits. Our router is a wifi6e on a 1.5gbs fibe line. I am using cat5e but I'm pretty sure that supports 1gbs.

I have to double check but I think it is a uefi board. It's an Asus board that I had saved several oveclock settings many years ago. I have a 750w psu so it should be adequate in powering rtx cards. Im thinking an rtx 2070 or rtx3060 second hand.

I've been away for a while (had kids) and looking to slowly get back into some gaming. Nothing too crazy but the games I enjoy playing is counterstrike, call of duty, etc. I'd like to spend about 150-250 in the used market and would like to know what you guys suggest. My current pc is an...

I was wondering, would having a hardwired AP be better than a second router with dhcp disabled? I currently have the second router with dhcp disabled and both router and second router have the same ssid. I'm finding weak reception around certain parts of the house and I believe it's because my...

It works well when it works but it drops occasionally. I haven't tried wired set up to see.if it occurs but i will try that tonight and see if the internet drops.

I recently connected a second router to my network and have been having problems with randomly losing internet connection on the network. It would happen spontaneously and return spontaneous across my phone, tv, and other devices connected via wifi. I configured the AP (second router) by...

What are you using to test stability? My 2700k at 4.8ghz crashes every time I load up p85. But incandescent game all day all night and itll be fine.

Picked up a 2060 and warzone runs like a champ. 2700k at 4.8ghz is proven worthy so far in 2020. Will upgrade in another 2 years.

Got an rtx 2060 and wow what a difference. 1080p max settings with AA on and it runs >70fps. Wishing I had a 120hz/1440p monitor.
