    Timorous replied to the thread Discussion Ryzen 9000X3D series review thread.

    Non 3d Zen 5 is not selling great in DIY. $600 for the 9950X is not that much in the scheme of things. The cost to add 2 slices of...

    Timorous replied to the thread Discussion Zen 5 Speculation (EPYC Turin and Strix Point/Granite Ridge - Ryzen 9000).

    The 8000 APUs support much faster ram on AM5 so I don't think it is a socket issue, just the IO die is a bit behind. Good thing is Zen...
