Different sections are focal points, but for cpus, yeah this is the primary unless if you go to overclocking and cooling

So do you need help with something?

Well, first, I guess I should give you a little history. For 17 years I was the CPU and Overclocking Moderator at Anandtech.com forums. The forum MIGHT be dissolved in the next 90 days, so I am looking for a possible new home. Below is the signature I use at that forum, and I have about 10 more systems that I do not regularly use including a Dual 7763 Milan system and a Dual 7V12 system. So I provide more help than I need help. I also have a (possible) Turin system but I have no BIOS for it until it is released and may have to return the CPU, but the below are in daily use:

All Doing Rosetta or WCG + F@H === 7 x 7950x + 3 4090 \ 7950x3d + 4090 \ 9950x w/4090
4 x Genoa 9554 w/linux 128 threads / 192 gig ram each
EPYC Genoa 9654 96c/192t, 192 gig DDR5-4800 ECC w/ 4080
Addition video cards 4080, 3 x 3080TI , 2 x 3090TI, 2 x 3070TI and 4 Titan V's

That's as long as I've been a member here, before this forum I was on Hardware Analysis along with @CrAsHnBuRnXp.

I don't gave as much hardware but building a rig and troubleshooting or tuning will never leave me. Reading manuals and books are still King

You can bookmark this forum or https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/ (the main forum page)
If you want infos about CPUs, general hardware would be the main point but it will depends on what you ask.
The news are good here, the CPU reviews are strong, everything can be seen from the forum, the staff is strong and listening.
Welcome.
