Thanks so much for the swift reply! Reassuring. I’ll be devastated that I’m going from CL14 3200Mhz to CL19 2666Mhz if they want to “upgrade” me. I did a lotta research when piecing my build, and the AMD 5950X has an Infinity Fabric of 1:1 at CL14 3200Mhz. I wanted the absolute best baseline, GPU-excepted. Sowing down ain’t for this build.
What state if you don’t mind me asking? I lived in FL, TX, MD, and PA before jumping The Atlantic Ocean a few years ago.
I’m over on the other side of the states in the PNW. Also running a 5950x! We’re computer twinsies
I did a huge jump from an AMD Phenom II X6 1055T CPU (6-core AM3 socket) kept in an old gen1 Thermaltake Armor case (think plastic transparent window), my 2012 build. This is my 3rd build ever, and the Thermaltake Armor had to go! I love this 5950x, it’s a beast, and I hope to get 10+ years outta this rig. You?
