Quoting: mahagrI'm using MSI MEG Unify as I got 70€ cashback from it. I also wasn't going to buy 12-core CPU, but I was lucky enough to get super limited offer for €349 and I just couldn't let it pass. Seconds later it was all sold out.

I got a 3900x for 400 monthish after release, luck as they held their price for a good while to start with.

Never been fond of MSI to be frank, Got a 570 taichi my self, all worked out the box for me.
Does the MSI have an odd ethernet chip then ?

Quoting: mahagrSame here, my last AMD CPU was Athlon 64, Since then I've owned only Intel CPUs until now. I'm really glad that I bought R9 3900X -- except that I had to buy beefy after market cooler as I was getting crazy from the stock cooler ramping up and down all the time, even when browsing here on Gaming On Linux. Oh, and I had to wait for Ubuntu 20.04 to get wired networking to work in my motherboard as I was too lazy and thought that I can as well wait for few more weeks.

It is good to have competition and Intel CPU being on par with AMD (depending on what you do) but I would never buy latest Intel CPUs as for me efficiency is just as important as performance is.

What board you using ?

Quoting: Naibno this isn't a joke, the amount of stress and work frontline NHS staff are under is not a joke

I was referring to your 4 on 4 off and not having the time statement!

The thing is, They've always had that stress due in part to cuts ect! It's in the spotlight due to the pandamic. Like I said, both the Mrs and daughter work for the NHS which indecently aren't on a 4 on 4 off scenario.

I'm not trying lightening the situation.

Well, working on bug fixes is surely under their control.

About as much as anyone else working on bug fixes.

Navi was rough on windows too, feels like it wasn't ready for release full stop to me .

Any luck RDNA2 will be in shape, Time will tell.

Quoting: marcelomendesWith no more coop issues, DL quickly became my new favorite quarantine FPS, can't wait to play this new DLC :)

What issues ? Played a few run through s with mates over the years, Never had problems

A long time ago in a galaxy far far away... well back in 2016 when I bough the game there were lots of disconnect issues, join a windows session was a pain, host a session wasn't good either. I finished the main campaign (single player) and tried to play some coop with no success, then I uninstalled and never touched back, until recently (a week ago maybe) and I'm having a blast.

That odd, never got that myself, did have some bad perf when it was first released iirc

Quoting: ShmerlUpgrade from Navi to Navi 2 (i.e. RDNA 2) would be good. As long as AMD will put more effort into fixing driver bugs faster.

To be honest the oss drivers ain't under their control. No clue what the prop drivers like.


If it's that bad why not go Nvidia !


Not had issues myself personally.

Quoting: NaibNice initiative but if you work for the NHS you unfortunately have no time. They are operating 4on-4off and on those 4off days they are exhausted due to working 14+ hour days

can partners of NHS staff benefit?

I take that as a joke.

Either that or the Mrs and daughter are leaving early and disappearing somewhere else for a day
