haha
so if i go for ryzen means gg.com
need get graphic card lol
but i though they say new mobo need use am4 socket old fan cannot use

wow XD
should go fro 1600x or 1700x > <
see here sell how much first

Wow, so didnt expect it to be this soon. Normal when they said Q2 will be May/June ma
I might opt to go hexacore then, since still not yet order current processor. Hopes with lesser core, can overclock higher

Ryzen = AM4 board
AM4 = Ryzen & newer gen APU

Yes, AM4 board need newer bracket for cooler, one of the headache for early adopter. That day went to one shop check price, they dont even have AM4 compatible cooler at all.

haiz if my aio can use back that bracket then good xD
just wan to confirm if use ryzen processor without graphic card
is it can use as normal pc?

Haiyoh what do you not understand la?

No on board graphics system. You need to install a graphics card to use.

got... it's called cable tie. haha...



I saw some computer shop use this. Genius...

thx so conclusion no upgrade yet
wait until vega news first XD

i remember saw some youtuber share before say can put am3 behind mobo and use back the old cooler
not sure true or not

really hope both 1400 and 1500x can oc to at least 4.5ghz.. if yes, hail to new king of gaming procs!

ASUS Crosshair VI Hero board can use AM3 cooler.

Hahaha, this is common method. Chat with computer store few days back, they did that to their test rig with 1800X because no compatible cooler available for them.
There's really interesting method if modding waterblock meant for CPU to use on GPU, zip tie come to rescue

If really want Ryzen, get a 2nd hand graphic card, or something like RX480 and sell later ( popular card, so should be easier sell )

Likely they modify current cooler to use it temporary, some custom made steel plate themselves

Whats the current price of ASUS Crosshair VI Hero in malaysia?

I hope it's not the manufacturing process limitation that limit R7 around 4.0Ghz-4.2Ghz, if it is then these lower end chip will get similar oc ceiling.

Almost 1.4k.

P.S. They just announced 3+1 years warranty campaign if you register your product.

From my understanding, early batch sure have lower clock limit, once factory/manufacturer are more mature on chips manufacturing, peak can go up slightly higher.

Zen+ will be out by then.


Anyway, i was hoping to see 4C/8T Ryzen with only 1 CCX enabled to see if there is a different in gaming/overclocking performance if the Data Fabric is not in the way but i guess that is out.

The overclock ceiling I think will be about the same.
It's just the manufacturing process. Just like before if you starts over clocking, the power goes up quite high. It is not designed for such thing.
It may improve if it uses different Revision/stepping. Otherwise Zen 2 hopefully should be better.

All Ryzen CPU are OC right? R5 1600 for rm1k sound just nice.
just need to OC to 4Ghz & maybe can fight intel i7 7700?

Errr a noob question. How would the Ryzen 5, say 1400 stack up with, say FX6350..?

Should be better in every way imaginable.

Good enough then. Thank you

Sweet. Ryzen 5 for everyone. Hahahaha.
