    Review Confusion regarding a pre-owned Headphone Zone order

    If it's just the box wake up and smell the coffee instead of going on a witch hunt. I received a brand new HD650 from amazon with a slightly damaged box so this should be fine.

    AM5 and Ryzen 7000 News

    Doesn't seem that exciting. No direct IPC comparison. Great clock frequency though. I would rather get a 5950x for cheap and save on platform costs. The latter is going to be massive initially.

    Careers and Employment Thread

    I apply on LinkedIn and get a call every single time. In fact my current job was from a LinkedIn listing. Even the previous one was from a LinkedIn listing. In December I got an offer from two of the FAANG companies via the LinkedIn application method.

    Review Corsair offering inferior PSU as a replacement

    Both are basically the same seasonic platform with 99% same parts. The vanilla AX series is also seasonic. The Asus Rog and Thor are also seasonic. Most well built power supplies can easily handle 30% over rated transients without shutting down. OCP on most PSUs built on the latest seasonic...

    Review Corsair offering inferior PSU as a replacement

    You will still be below 1kW. 6900 XT even in crazy oc state will consume less than a reasonably oc'ed 3090(~2GHz boost clocks) like mine. The AMD cards this gen are rather tame this present gen. I have an Rx 6800 in my secondary rig and it doesn't even get hot at 2.5-2.6 GHz boost clocks. In...

    Review Corsair offering inferior PSU as a replacement

    Running a 3090 with the signature 1000. You don't need 1300 for a 6900XT. It consumes far less power.

    Thermal Paste Suggestion

    Kryonaut - hands down the best paste this side of liquid metal. Just very expensive. Stopped using every other paste now as this is like 4-5 degrees superior to the likes of noctua, as5, mx4 etc.

    Amazon India lightning deals

    It is more or less same multi-core performance from both. In single core, the 12400f is way ahead.

    R I P Crucial Ballistix- The memory brand is no more

    Stupid idea honestly. Crucial had a serious amount of goodwill in the market for making high quality value priced memory products that had great support. They will have to spend a lot to establish the micron brand now to get the same number of eyeballs.

    Graphic Cards Review of AMD 6000 GPU cards

    Have a 3090, 3070 and an RX 6800. My favorite card of the lot is the RX 6800. The only real downer of the card is poor ray tracing performance when there are a lot of incoherent rays. Other than that, it's far better than both the 3090 and 3070. Primary reasons are the following I) Rock solid...

    0-20k Best cooler for the Intel 12th Gen 12600k CPU

    I paid around the same for my 12700K. I would say buy that if you have the money. The two extra P cores and higher clocks are totally worth it for just a bit extra.
