    Latest AMD Ryzen 2 processors and X470 chipset motherboards have been launched!

    Many 8GB modules are single rank while 16GB modules are usually dual rank. So you will hit about the same speed on 4 X 8GB or 2 X 16GB on Ryzen. Best overclocking performance can be achieved with 2 Single rank RAM configuration which place less load on the memory controller, since you’re going...

    Why not go for 2 X 8 GB and then add another 16 GB later. There is nothing to be gain by using 2 X 16 sticks. This should give you an idea http://www.legitreviews.com/amd-ryzen-single-rank-versus-dual-rank-ddr4-memory-performance_192960

    This is something new. Last time I checked, the buying option wasn't there just the specs or maybe I missed it. Thank you.

    Then there are those people who buy cracked copies of Kaspersky, Norton or McAfee by paying ₹100 and feel like they've got all the protection and goes on to open every ZIP file they receive over email or skype. :p

    Yes, it depends. That setup is absolute overkill for me. :dead: R5 2600 + B450 mobo + Deepcool Gammaxx 400 would've been the ideal setup for you but B450 is not out yet and the Gammaxx 400 is overpriced by the seller Overclockers zone. I also I want to support AMD but damn the Indian pricing.:mad:

    If your overclocking goals are not very ambitious then you're better off with Gigabyte and 4 X 8 GB route.

    Kinda cheap guy here, looking for value in everything. Personally, if I want the absolute best then no doubt I will go with Intel but I am willing to make smaller sacrifices for some $$$ savings.:D This is why AMD gets my vote.

    60A in the Asus is completely overkill even the video mentions that. You don't need to remove the battery on Gigabyte, it has power and CMOS reset buttons and also dual Bios for worst case scenario. When I was talking about better memory support, I was talking about out of the box support not...

    They have the same 10+2-phase VRM, with the VCore VRM using IR3553s and can overclock the same. Most of the reviewers having problems running Ryzen stable at 4.3 GHz even with liquid cooling, so for us normal people 4.1 GHz will be more realistic. Last year’s CH6 was good at overclocking so was...

    Memory support on Gigabyte Aorus Gaming 7 is currently better than Crosshair VII Hero. They have added a lot of memory modules into their QVl list with XMP support. It's also cheaper by 5K than the Crosshair Hero. Avoid the MSI.

    Reliability is a never ending debate. It's not easy to judge, even Seasonic PSUs fail. In addition, there is a chance that you might get a PSU which is Dead on arrival. Even if the PSU fails, you can RMA it within warranty period. With that being said, you can't go wrong with any of the PSUs...

    Most probably it was a bug with Avast. It created huge temporary files and did not delete them which occupied a lot of disk space.

    All of them looks fake especially the first one, it is too good to be true. 8 cards for 32K.

    I would still recommend the Corsair RM650X. It is priced aggressively, the Indian pricing is really close to US pricing and it uses Japanese Caps by chemi-con. You already own a Corsair VS650, which is considered a bad PSU and probably uses some Chinese caps, but it didn't die on you so chances...

    Already bought a Corsair RM650X. It earned editors recommendation at tom's hardware. The components used are of high quality. I had no idea that the tier list existed and I agree that list is not very reliable. I have gone through numerous reviews and from what I have gathered, the top 3 650W...
