Thank you!

Appreciated big man, the CL36 i found on Newegg for $180, vs my local microcenter has the CL30 for $230

I’m looking to build my first AM5 rig. It’s been a good while since I’ve done a complete overhaul like this and it seems a fair bit has changed. My main question stems from CL timings. I’ve been doing some reading and am current looking at the G.Skill Z5 Neo series. There is about a $50...

Hey man, i just updated my chipset drivers and a few other things like audio drivers that werent up to date, didnt notice much on my UBM: https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/50697128

i just disabled xbox dvr, i dont see game helper anywhere on my pc or in any settings. i have tried game mode or whatever the microsoft thing is called both on and off. ive tried matching buddies settings exactly and even turning everything as low as possible. still not great performance...

I’m using a admittedly pretty old 240mm wii (enermax liqfusion) I think part of the problem might be that my case doesn’t have good airflow (h510i)

i just bought a 5800x about a week ago. before i had a i7 6700. previously that would idle around 34 degrees. i know the new powerful cpu will be hotter but its idling around 55-60 degrees and is around 85 degrees after long gaming session (6 hours ish) when in cinebench multicore its 90 degrees...

i have an intake fan on the back of my pc right next to an ac vent, will the inflow of cold air help cool or cause condensation?
