I havnt updated my PC in so long everytime im about to I just end up flying to vegas and gambling it away anyway its just not that important to me anymore I really dont play much more than a few days at bestI notice all the streamers still use intel though and swear by it saying Ryzen isnt good for streaming
but i mean if you arent a streamer i guess it shouldnt matter

Working from home I think I'm gonna catch the upgrade bug again soon
I forgot how much those high frames do to a game. But yea no streaming for me, I just need max performance in games. That 3080ti gonna be mine

Ryzen is great at streaming and all around workloads, where it suffers is getting the maximum amount of frames in games.
In most cases it's 5-10 percent behind Intel in certain games at 1080p.

Oh ok. Im pretty much watching 8-10 hours of twitch a day
its pretty much took over tv for me honestly. These gta rp streams are wild just heard a few big streamers complaining about it
Yes, I do. The background is so quiet, which is very noticeable. Then, that let's you hear some micro phonics that you wouldn't have heard before. I was listening to some of my favorite songs, and I was hearing sounds I never heard before on the tracks.
This. When I'm not playing Destiny, I'm watching DestinyOh ok. Im pretty much watching 8-10 hours of twitch a day
random thought but do newer motherboards come with usb-c ports?

NZXT, Phanteks, Fractal Design, Corsair, Cooler Master, In Win, and Lian Li supports type C. However, you may have to pay more depending on the manufacturer.

Doom 2016; Doom Eternal, The Outer Worlds, Gears 5, and Star Wars Jedi Fallen Order regarding single player games.
Multiplayer games would be CS Go; Division 2,
GTFO, Insurgency Sandstorm, Uno, Project Winter.
Me and my boys(we all black and chill dudes), we be on the weekends gaming. We'll be on this weekend playing Project Winter; Uno, and maybe GTFO. If you need folks to game w/, feel free to add me on Steam(Oasis2092) or Discord(Oasis2012).
Nope - most of my personal systems are AMD but Intel line up/price point fits for what it is up against with ryzen. The 10980xe, the 10th gen i9's are on par or almost on par with the 9900k in gaming.
Also resell value for Intel is much better if that matters to you.
I like to keep to up with the prices of all of my hobbies; lost probably 60-70% of value buying ryzen/threadripper chips brand new. With intel, closer to 20-30% since 2017.

Forgive the clutter and wires, but I wanted to post this. I just bought a USB->SDL cable on eBay so I can connect my 33-year-old IBM Model M keyboard directly to my 2019 PC without a bunch of adapters.
Here it is in front of my 38" LG Ultragear

basically, regular old Macs and PCs are used to make the majority of music you consume, they just have audiophile grade audio converters among other things...
