I hope can get the i7-11700 + B560 mITX within RM2k budget, that'll be sweet.

Rumored prices shows it wont be cheap.



https://www.extremetech.com/computing/32038...%20CPU%20family.

USD389 = RM1601 (not including other charges) for 11700 alone.

Those that could use avx512, the intel cpu will be a big deal. theoretically 2 times faster in calculations over avx2. if there are benchmarks that can tap into avx512 performances, it will simply just blow AMD away if benchmark figures matters lolol

Mmmm 11700F is only a lil more expensive than 5600x (but cheaper than the currently scalped prices).
if these works flawlessly on z490 and can be purchased without exorbitant markup, I’m game.

Since even on the china early shakedown of the nonK 11700, it seems to be very close to a 5800x in performance but a lot cheaper. (And a lot cooler)

Hopefully the majority didn’t realize this and stay away from intel so I could easily get one

does 5800x matter haha, you want avx512 right?

Dunno how it will be when compared to CUDA but will be a fun experiment to toy with. Now I’m more looking forward to the final upgrade path for my z490 board... afterall I got this 10400F as a temporary cpu so that I can get rid of my Ryzen.

AVX-512 specifically, AVX2 works on all current gen CPUs out there.

i9 prices are very subpar.

i7 K prices are on par with 5800X, subject to final reviews of performance.

i5 is decent vs 5600X.

AMD needs to release lower end Zen3 CPUs to take on the 11400 and 11700. With unlocked memory on B560 these look like a good value offering for non-enthusiast builders.

i9 seems to cater for the absolute enthusiast who want to make use of the OCTVB feature.

While for everyone else, the 11400 nonK 11700 nonK is a very capable cpu for its price. We dont know the potential yet but it seems like it will be the best choice if AMD is not gonna drop the prices on 5800x. (And for consumers who has a rational and neutral view, not those 7nm more advanced dufus) Infact even now, I can give alot of reasons why 10400F, 10700F is a better buy than 3600/5600x

can fap to switches

GIGABYTE Announces Z590 AORUS Tachyon Motherboard for Extreme Overclocking

https://www.techpowerup.com/279728/gigabyte...me-overclocking

damn the layout. EATX size?

size probably does not matter, people who use this board going to put on bench anyway, your finger cant reach the switch even if your casing support EATX

It even comes with thermal probes.. whew

pricing wise cheaper than apex

hmm

no octvb till today for 11900k

but they introduced something else ATB

easy.

My experience with Gigabyte on both AMD and Intel tells me to avoid it.

So u banned Asus (due to pricetag) and now Giga, which brand do you want to ban next? 'Missing Something Inside'? lol

Yeah, gonna go for Missing Something Inside. lol

missing something inside really was missing 8Xpcie lanes on my B450 gaming plus...

On my z490i it is missing my free devil may cry game redemption
