8bitsperbyte on [eBay Plus] Intel Core i7-14700K CPU $555.15 + $5 Delivery (Excl. NT) @ Centre Com eBay

Yep, correct. My ASrock Z690 actually had calibrated values by default, 0.2mOhm AC Loadline for LLC3 (0.4mOhm for LLC4) and would not go…

You wouldn't be looking at the 9700x, the relevant comparison would be the 9900x @ $700 for mixed usage. I agree, nobody should buy 14700K…

BIOS updates are required on both AM5 and LGA1700 right now. AM5 actually has far more risk with an older BIOS if you are using a 9000…

Just overall platform cost for the 14700k is much cheaper, especially if you needed tb4/usb4/10gbe or additional pcie lanes etc. This is…

You can go all the way down to 1.35-1.4v vcore limit and lose less than 2% performance on the 14700K in ST and no performance in MT. I…

The 265K is a bit faster in multithread (~5%) but slower (~7%) in gaming. I would personally take the 14700k due to the lower platform /…

Not an issue as long as you stop the motherboard from auto pushing 1.58v to the cache... Incredibly easy to fix in BIOS as well, set…

Ah, good to know the 4TB version solves the multiplexer issue - unfortunately still looks like there are massive drops in TLC write mode…

outright worse performance than the $200 HE keyboards (EZ67, 80HE etc), wonder who this is for.

Dubzy on Alienware 27" Dual-Resolution IPS Gaming Monitor AW2725QF $449.46 (Was $599) Delivered @ Dell

the most popular resolution for cs is 1280x960 (even on 1080p/1440p monitors), so 1080p isn't really a downgrade. 180hz is also pretty bad…

Viospeed on Lenovo Yoga 7 2-in-1 (14", Gen 9) OLED Laptop: AMD Ryzen 7 8840HS CPU, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD $1329.05 Delivered @ Lenovo AU

nowhere near the same build tier, anything you can get with a 4060 at 1.3k is basically full plastic e-waste. the 3050 yoga works though.

This has a much better built chassis + keyboard than say an Asus Zenbook 14 (eww, ceraluminum) etc at around this price range. But the 90hz…

100hz VA has massive smearing with any sort of motion. you can get 1080p100 24" IPS for $80-110 instead.
