That's another thing I was thinking too.. AMD sticks to one socket for awhile! I'm still trying to get use to the whole Intel thing... z97, z99, wtf22... why so many???
I know the feeling! That's another issue I was looking into was cost. Currently I'm happy with Intel.. But if this pushes them to drop prices, I'll stay Intel. But then again 4790 is the best I can use in my board lol So upgrade may come soon...ish
Been a while since I've posted anything on here... But the whole Ryzen chip has my interest. I was on team Red for a very long time till almost 2 years ago when I got the 4790k. So my question is, How many of y'all plan on switching to the Red side? Or are you currently Red and just upgrading to...
Currently i'm at 1.26v and 4.5GHz, highest temps I've reach is around ~75c. If I lower the voltage anymore (.01 increments) I can't get past Windows loading.
The only thing I can think of, is if you have a pair of pillars. Try turning the screw from the backside of the board (be gently and don't bend the threads). Just enough to break them loose.
