When @Judo tells me its time to update my drivers...its time to update my drivers....

And AMD just apparently released a 2020 suite of the radeon software so lemme get on this

AMD released their Radeon Software Adrenalin 2020 Edition

I got a Ryzen cpu, what does that do for me?

Sweet lord this bytch is fast All my productivity apps run like butter and it plays 4K RAW footage at full quality like it's nothing

As far as gaming I ran Assassins' Creed Origins at max settings @1440p, looked and played incredible I'm about to see what RE2 looks like

I hope your case can display this prettiness in all its glory. You got liquid cooling?

What CPU do you have?
"Radeon software adrenalin" is for AMD's GPUs. You can set the GPU clock speed, voltage, and memory speed to certain points with extra settings for how you want your games to run and look on your PC.
"Ryzen Master software" is for AMD's CPUs. You can set different settings for AMD's Ryzen CPUs to get the most out of your CPU, like if your cpu is unlocked, you can overclock it to get more power out of it.
Here's what Ryzen Master software looks like:

New Radeon update is amazing....the ui is much cleaner and making gifs are much easier now

Can anyone recommend a graphics card that will support a Dell 49" monitor and a 4K tv? The monitor has a max resolution of 5120 x 1440 @ 60Hz and the tv is 3840 x 2160. Not using either for gaming, only photo editing and video playback.

EDIT: Called Nvidia, they suggested Quadro RTX 4000

Yup

Say brehs, any of y’all use 1440p as your main/only monitor?

I got a kinda budget 4k60 and a 1080/144 monitor, and I’m thinking of replacing the 1080p with 1440/165. I have no problem with gaming on it (8700k and 2080ti), But I’m worried about media on there like YouTube, etc. Will I miss having the 1080p option?

So pretty much you have an unlocked CPU that should already boost into a higher range of frequency when needed, so your already getting the most out of it.

Question for my coli brehs! I copped a ryzen 3800x. Doing some research reviews seems split. Some say the wraith cooler that comes with the 3800x is more then enough while others are saying i should still get a aftermarket cooler.

Any tips?
