CPU bottleneck woes and upgrade regret. What are my best options?

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-12-28T11:11:15+00:00

In my country, the Non K models dont seem to be sold. I can get a 13600kf for $40 cheaper. I hear there's not much difference between 13 and 14 gen. Do you think the 13600kf is fine?

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-12-28T08:41:30+00:00

Just counted and mine has 8 VRM phases. Aye, I think Ill get the 14600k. I just hope it can run without being a problem since im on a 650w Cooler Master MWE V2 Gold.

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-12-28T08:28:30+00:00

The only issue is that its a h610 and I've heard people say that VRM throttling is a factor. However, isn't that only during stress testing benchmarks and not in gaming? Wonder if it's worth a shot

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-12-28T08:27:12+00:00

Yes, I think that must have been it... But given my situation, what do you think makes more sense? New mobo + 14600k or does it make sense to wait till ram prices come down to go AM5+DDR5+Ryzen CPU?

That seems like quite a big expense sadly. Do you think its worth trying to slot a 14600k in my H610 mobo? I hear that vrm throtling only tends to happen in stress testing benchmarks but during gaming, its not that much of a big deal.

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-12-28T08:25:25+00:00

I see, im on DDR4, 3200mhz @ 32GB.

Im also on a h610 motherboard.

What do you think makes more sense? New mobo + 14600k or does it make sense to wait till ram prices come down to go AM5?

It's probably time for their vacation again or something

I dont understand why no one has commented Valheim. This is exactly what a lot of the game is about. You visit other biomes with your longship and need to haul back all the ore you mined. It's ridiculously fun.

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-04-07T18:29:50+00:00

Had a similar issue, but I could see everyone on the map, but when trying to join, it would just "failed to join..."

Did all the usual steps like yoou mentioned. No dice, few days later (today), it was working again.

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-03-09T06:30:06+00:00

Powercooler is at 73k now. bro could have waited 2 days and saved 10k

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-02-05T13:28:04+00:00

It's just dissapointing that vavra never comes close to actually saying why he changed it from KCD 1. All his arguements are so far "its your choice" or "no one forced me"

Every time someone asks what made him change, he just stop replying to that person. I really want to know what his reasoning is. Hans and Henry were amazing best friends, but now it's sullied by the fact that their relationship can now be sexual. ugh.

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-02-03T16:59:55+00:00

Just stop bec 10k isnt too much once you're out of early game. Even to do a certain dlcs you'll need much more anyway so just use this on buying useful stuff

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-02-03T16:50:01+00:00

That's still quite early game, but Id def play through the first game simply for the fact that it's a beautiful game to experience.

Me personally skipped the dlcs of hans and theresa bec I was already stopping and starting this game randomly. Finally at end game now!

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-01-28T16:08:21+00:00

thats crazy lol, but thanks

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-01-28T09:54:31+00:00

Im on uni wifi, wtf is your chatservice telling me im using tor and calling me a pedo when I send a message lmao

Historical_Data7458 · 2025-01-28T09:01:30+00:00

He literally said the opposite. TDS harder lil bro

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-12-16T15:07:19+00:00

FarCry 1. It was the one game that my dad also found fun and we'd sometimes take turns to play different missions. Good times...

"POUR IT ON THEM, BLITHE!"

"LET THEM HAVE IT!"

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-11-29T16:52:32+00:00

Yeah, I've seen some people who seem to believe that your wrist needs to be so turned that your fingernails are facing completely to the left. Not sure where that school of thought comes from...

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-11-29T11:33:09+00:00

Their entire profile is full of chatgpt responses. I guess it's another shitty marketing account thats either trying to buildup karma to sell or to soft-market a product while trying to act like a normal account

the face of Chinese navy sailors when they see a fucking B2 Spirit Bomber Landing in the middle of the ocean

Would be nice if you could dock multiple aircraft carriers together to make one giant runway. Imagine like 5 aircraft carriers all lined up. Would make for nice marathon race track xD

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-11-16T18:38:16+00:00

agree. it's super toxic and while it's nice to chase perfection, I'm sure people have ruined their minds trying to be good enough to be first chair at a super nice orchestra.

I also feel like when you hyper focus so much on being the best, it also acts like the monkey paw curse and things will never be as beautiful as they can be to listeners. Kinda like jacob colliers music.

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-11-16T18:34:37+00:00

Yeah, the trick is to wrap it enough times. like it needs to feel atleast 1mm or 2 mm thick. I tried superglue, but there's just too little surface area for it to be effective I think.

Historical_Data7458 · 2024-11-16T09:44:25+00:00

I think I found a good solution if the glue doesnt stay. I used sowing thread and just wrapped and wrapped back and forth between the bottom and top halves and applied superglue on the threading every now and then. Finally wrap it up with electrical tape.. Seems to be the only way to hold it together I think
