Sorry, but 225/250W power limits are not conservative at all.
I consider 160W to be a reasonable limit and 120W a conservative limit.
Also you need to limit the frequencies too, so that the CPU does not ask for high voltage and cannot locally overheat. 5000/4000 MHz limits seem pretty safe...
There are many of these cables and connectors in use today, which have been subjected to various kinds of mishadling, also some manufacturing and tolerance issues while making a new type of something are unavoidable.
So the information that some repair shop is still seeing melted connectors...
Scalpers exist only because the manufacturer temporarilly cannot satisfy the demand. Do not atribute any important role (as influencing the normal sale price) to them.
No, only the monopolist charges people what are they willing to pay, and monopols are subjected to all sorts of regulation...
I do not have it anymore, I had it just shortly, originally I got it only to see how much it bends in the socket.
I am still attempting to sell one of my 14900K and 13900KS, and I intend to use the second one for some more time.
You can use 20x more paste than needed if you do not care about the messy disgusting sticky hard to clean awful squeeze-out. The worst can happen is the paste getting inside the socket.
I just have one ready for pick up at a normal retailer for normal price (it most likely will not happen). They are made and they sell. For some reason they are made in so small volumes, that retailers do not have even single digit numbers in stock.
It seems like the total monthly production is...
Why? The ECO 14700K with 5 GHz and 125W limits will still perform overall comparably with 9700X, while maintaining much better multithread performance even when limited this way.
I have been saying all the time that the 12B microcode alone does not fix the CPUs.
There is a dramatic difference in how the CPUs operate at 6000 and 5000 MHz, both in voltage and temperature. Even 5600 (max frequency of 14700K) vs 5000 MHz makes a significant difference.
I also said for very...
