since you want to brandish a sword...
Enjoy missing out features just to keep your cpu to date? See my earlier post.
Really, the cpu is the last thing people actually need to upgrade, yet, suddenly its a huge issue, we need to upgrade our cpus every 3 years? After 4/5, when most people actually want/need a cpu upgrade, ill want what the new chipset has to offer anyway. If you are sticking with a mobo for 6-8 years, chances are one may get an AIC or two which again cuts into any cost savings from hanging on to a mobo. Its also well past their 3 year warranty and more prone for failure the older it gets so...
....while i agree there fan be benefits from hanging onto a motherboard, i dont feel its benefits are as strong/worthwile as some people want it to be.
ok, its wiki...so...
They say its SIMILAR to pcie in how it works, but doesnt mention anything about source of the bandwidth.
Who says I was brandishing a sword?If I did it would be literally with a .45 (who brings a sword to a gun fight lol)
What I don't understand is all the hate.
Thought all y'all liked competition to lower prices, guess not...
I think this thread has run its course.
I'm glad AMD merged 2 platforms that didn't happen previously.
Amd made Intel panic, which is progress, vs sitting on a platform from 2012.
