    Question Difference of 5950X and 5900X, architecturally speaking?

    We all know that on paper the 5950X has four more cores and twice the threads compared to the 5900x, but when it comes to how each core was architectured, engineered and made, is there a difference there? Because if the only difference is that AMD decided to just add four more physical cores...

    Question Dell OptiPlex 3040 MT i7 6700k

    Theoretically since the 3040 supports the i7 6700 then it should be able to support the K version of the same processor, the pc also has a 500w psu so power shouldn't be an issue.
