Fair enough.None that I've ever noticed.
It's been this way since I got it years ago off ebay.

Hi,Fair enough.
Right! See I have tasks that require RAM bandwidth so dual channel just will not cut it, or I would have gone the Ryzen 3900x/5900x route. This is why I had been considering the Threadripper platform. Not for the cores, because a 12 core CPU is all I need, but for the RAM bandwidth. Might still make that move as I'm now getting deeper into research that has been in the works for the last several years.Hi,
Yeah x299 systems only issue is it's in storage
I just preferred z490 because it's a lot better gamer.

I haven't gone that route yet. When companies bring TLC drives in 6TB or 8TB variants for under $250, then I'll get into it. Until then hard drives will remain my mainstay as non-OS storage.Hell I'm just not getting into large m.2's with my first couple of 4tb bought just recently.

Anything set is ignored if to low last I read so on to PL adjustments and likely watchdog violations hehe

Well ATM maybe just a tiny OC because I am going to use my old AIR cooler from X79 platform but definitely going to play with OC voltages and undervolting as this mobo have plenty optionsNice find! Going to OC it?
What cooler? I can help you dial in a good OC for that CPU that will not heatsoak your cooler.Well ATM maybe just a tiny OC because I am going to use my old AIR cooler from X79 platform but definitely going to play with OC voltages and undervolting as this mobo have plenty options

Some Xigmatek 'tho I mounted 2 fans on it it' should be fine it was serving me really well with my old Xeon 2697 V2.....but now atm I am installing and preparing system still didn't put this machine in the case and I am just using some small simple old AMD cooler and even with that temps are good on stockWhat cooler? I can help you dial in a good OC for that CPU that will not heatsoak your cooler.

Not for a few more years yet. All of the CPU's are officially supported still and are compatible with Windows 11. Additionally, even when the X299 platform goes unsupported, it will still be relevant for a few years after that.When do you people think this platform will become obsolete? I'm planning on upgrading sometime next year.

In reality obsolete is a relative term and apply for each of us differently.....for example I was still using daily my X79 platform and for my needs that platform was sufficient...it was working just fine under the W11 I was playing all games on 1440p or 4k 60Fps didn't find anything that didn't work for me....but yeah sure some people always wants latest and greatest and there is nothing bad in that....When do you people think this platform will become obsolete?
