too late , I already bought 5600x+b550 tomahawx bundle deal 

I already bought 5600x+b550 tomahawx bundle deal on shoppee , though i think quality b450 is still capable to carry 5600x  ,no need to spend extra unless thing doesnt work out
as for me im just being too impatience , prob sell my 2600+b450 together 
PS:5600x+ b550 msi tomahawx for RM2199 , RM50 higher than LYN price , still doable to me

sure if u willing to buy from me for full price 

Stability fix just came out for B550 i Aorus Pro AX.

Dark hero 1999 what a steal. Instant buy
Only x570 unify and dark hero in this list I consider.

The others are pure garbage, non future proof after 4 to 5 years.

big up for this. for me, it's 'upgrade as you go'. i somehow calculated my own cost of me getting "future proof material" vs the "upgrade as you go" path...usually these future proof materials don't really get future proofed because they actually get obsolete instead... as companies will release them in the future many more times, on top of several iterations of additional refinements that bring more values to said future proof materials...turns out 'upgrade as you go' is a pretty viable option.

You bought that rig two years too early.

Buying 2600K and a 7970 in 2011 would have set you for 6+ years easily with just incremental GPU upgrades to max everything on 1080p e.g. GTX970/1070 - consoles and Bulldozer underperformance has stagnated the tech/performance race for a long time until recently.

I have been thinking. 5600x Rm1459 + dark hero Rm1999 = Rm3458
10900k Rm2099 + decent z490 (Rm1400) also Rm3500. Some more 10900k no shortage.

My 3700x was purchased previously to serve a stop gap for 5900x. But cant find it anywhere at least at reasonable price. 3000 OK but 3800, want meh. Sigh
Genuine question. My 3700x under Noctua DH-15, idle at 40-45'c. Whats your cometlake temp now? Want to know more as my last intel was 6700 series.
Take note on that if I somehow managed to find.

I think I should consider very lucky.

I manage to grab last unit of Ryzen 9 5900X at price lowered little than MSRP at RM 2,450.00 on 13 Nov 2020.

Of course need to bundle with full set, this time was ok to me as I need buy new PC.

Previously I said my PC crash issue, I change RAM setting still not 100% solve.

Now I can ensure it is software issue, I use MPV player at my old laptop and never had issue crash when playing 4K HDR content to SDR, but it keep crashing and PC restart when playing 4K HDR in HDR. After more test by off my windows HDR, no more crashing issue.

Later I try others player in HDR play in HDR and no issue. So that playback crash system is MPV player issue.

I had uninstall the association with MPV and remove entirely the application.

Now using JRiver Media center. I love this apps as easier to get best quality setting of MadVR. Awesome quality and playback was freaking smooth.

Another alternative is VLC Player.

MPC-HC MPC-BP is a great choice for people prefer manually tunes MadVR.

Important no more of restart issue.

Because I test others player no issue, include Windows 10 media player, VLC Player, J River Media Center, and MPC-HC player, all instant switch to HDR, instant switch within Windows and full screen, instant play and no crash and no windows restart.

But this only happen in MPV player where HDR movie stuck during full screen switching, sometimes it will make my pc restart. The MPV Player not facing such issue when playback in SDR include HDR movie convert to SDR output. I can't test at my laptop as my laptop GPU not support HDR output to HDR monitor

So I conclude this is software bugs also as none of others player I test had this issue. Total 5 player test, only 1 player crash my PC.

I got Intel processor but I cannot test it because that system not support HDR output. The MPV player ha no issue in SDR in both my system in Intel or AMD.

But also can't conclude this is Ryzen issue as well.

Correct I also can't conclude 100% is software issue unless somebody using Intel processor with HDR monitor and set Windows 10 HDR turn on to test it.

This is my second AMD system, it is same not 100% stable. I think I will back to Intel in future also. Haha!

Yalo, for lcurrent situation, I also not dare to ask enterprise company using it. Lucky I didn't also, else they will be no day for fixing here and there issue

Stability is very important for company, cannot simply restart or crash in working time.

Haha! Until now we whole teams no one dare suggest for switch, we still keep using Xeon. Trouble happen, who suffer, we suffer, user also suffer.

Thanks for your information, this is another great point better stick with Intel for server based as well.

But for stability wise, we pick Xeon.

We have at least 200 VM, cannot have any crash issue.

I think this is a bit out of topic, we should stop discussion here. Haha!

Read your post and other good feedback here. Will consider to jump back to Intel. Thanks!

5 months! OMG! I should consider Intel that time. Haha!

10700k here is Rm1699

ROG STRIX Z490-F GAMING - 1240
ROG STRIX Z490-E GAMING - 1635

The cooler I booked is nzxt z73. I only have corsair RM750 psu.

Still dilemma.
1) 5600x & dark hero = Rm3459
2) 10700k + z490E/F =Rm2939/ Rm3334
3) 10900k + z490 E/F = Rm3339 / Rm3734 (750W is concern?)

My 5900x so far so good, never a single crash before bro. Let's see whats the difference between mine and yours. Mine mobo is giga aorus master on latest f31q bios, ram tridentz gskill 3600mhz CL18 on xmp profile @ 1.35v (manual bump up dram voltage). The rest of settings i keep default stock. Not interested on OC for the minimal gain that can't be felt in real life usage.

Hi, I did read the discussion on this thread

Is 5600x still worth to buy? (still, got issue)?
or wait for
5600?
