This is really interesting 9800x3d. what if the power is cap to be similar to 7800x3d, how will it perform in gaming?

RAM prices are really crazy now. wanna build a new PC with 9800x3D, a 16gbx2 kit 6000MHz CL30 cost like RM800+ easily.

Distros & resellers here very smart, when global price hikes they quickly raise prices, every week if possible. When global price drops, they manmanlai giving lotsa excuses to maintain high level. All of them pakat so theres no way to avoid paying high prices unless they cannot sell then start to drop until the next wave of price hikes.

Yup. Did not keep up with the thread. Just coincidence needed to send my parts to my mum's PC as replacement. All about timing. biggrin.gif

I just gotten that Acer predator 6000MHz CL30, MSI B650M gaming plus wifi mentioned here, phantom spirit 120 SE and the 9800X3D. Not sure that Dell 1000W PSU is compatible or not. If not probably need to get a PSU as well. Any recommendations for a PSU. btw, gonna pair it with my existing RTX 4090.

Check connectors. Dells are usually along with its proprietary mobo sockets. Not compatible with standard ATX format.

FSP Hydro whatever Pro/G/PTM as long ATX3.x and comes with 12VHPWR connector are be solid. Otherwise FSP Vita GM or 1st Player NGDP.

The just got that Hydro PTM 1200W, which is now ATX3.1. Although seller advertise it as ATX3.0, it came as 3.1.
Fitted everything into a Lian Li A3 mATX case, tight fit.😂

he claims hdd prices not really. For desktop hard drives rated for 8 hours a day, i can see that.

But i don't think thats the case for 24/7 NAS or server hard drives. prices at least in malaysia seem to be quite high  hmm.gif
For amd cpu shopee prices as of this month roughly

amd 9800x3d for RM2,095.50

*this is boxed. the tray might sell for cheaper. fyi box has better warranty than a tray version.
pcpartpicker historical pricing on amazon
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/fPyH99/amd...istory_days=730

about RM2k
Amd 7800x3d for RM1,470.90
*about rm 1.6k for the boxed on wallmart on pcpartpicker chart
amd now in the news

basically patent trolls targeting amd  rolleyes.gif

For that 9800x3D, typically shopee will have those 15% discount voucher, so the final price is ,~RM1728. Price difference between the 7800x3d tray is around RM500.

For HDD, few months ago, bought 2 used EXOS 16TB from shopee for ~RM800 each. It was used around 22K hours. See how long it holds up. My Toshiba N300 12TB just kaput just after 3 years 3months usage. Just over the 3 years warranty.😅

1.7k for the 9800x3d? is that tray? if i knew i'd buy that.

right now i'm using a 7800x3d and tbh i get the fps for apex legend which is really all i play. so not too big a loss :/
i saw those rm, 800 16tbs or similar to it. not gonna do that again. high chance those are used with the smart reseted. AND/OR they also have issue with warranty. EVEN IF, they claim got store warranty, THATS BS. and if u ask shopee to help in 1-2 year even during the valid store warranty, shopee wont help u.

cheapest i found from reliable source is rm 1.6k i dont like the price but what to do. i need the drive but i dont want a NO warranty. shopee is useless.

the 9800x3d is the box type. it is near to RM1.7K because of shopee voucher. not much difference in reality between the 7800x3d.

I just gamble on those RM800 HDD becoz a new one with warranty cost more than double. the one I bought already stated used for 20+K hours which the smart was not reseted. Not thinking about warranty in my case. gonna be mirroring it in my config.

i gambled on those hdd, and none of them were good.

just cause u see smart is showing everything is new, doesnt mean it is.

example, mine showed in farm stats, 4 years power on cycle. and the all the smarts got reset back to 0. so u cant even tell the condition simply because smart says its ok, when in fact it may be on the cusp of dying. a few died so... u arent getting a good deal. trust me i know cause i actually tried it and lost  sweat.gif

Great point there. But getting a 16TB with warranty is extremely expensive. Easily more than RM2K and above. Any recommendation where to get them at a reasonable price?
