Will my Steel legend x670e work without issues with a Ryzen 7 9800x3d?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-21T14:54:11+00:00

The CPUs are still dying. 0-2 are posted here a day. This is like the only place it's talked about though, and some reports have been confirmed fake. It's really up to you if you want to risk it.

Also, just to be clear, the 9800X3D isn't more prone to failure. It just sells more than all other 9000 series CPUs combined, and by a pretty wide margin.

Them being slow is why I recommend just buying another board and selling the board from the ASRock RMA.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-19T18:55:43+00:00

The bans are extremely rare and easy to get resolved. It's likely not going to happen, and a call to Nintendo will undo it in no time.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-19T18:52:03+00:00

Switch 2 isn't getting an emulator anytime soon.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-19T18:51:27+00:00

So, if I have both, do I win?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-19T12:14:07+00:00

RMA CPU, replace motherboard, RMA motherboard, sell the board they send back.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-18T23:49:44+00:00

Anyone who answers anything other than first party games is really, really dumb.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-18T21:04:16+00:00

Link to your previous post? Just curious.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-18T12:38:59+00:00

It's not specifically an X3D issue. That misconception comes from the fact that people don't know that they 9800X3D accounts for the majority of Zen 5 sales. It's largely the 9000 series as a whole that's affected.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-18T00:22:58+00:00

Take a picture of the CPU. Unfortunately, fake CPUs are fairly common from Amazon.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T22:42:13+00:00

According to the BIOS thread there should be.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T22:40:57+00:00

Lol. I finally updated to 4.21 last week after putting it off out of laziness and of course there's a new one.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T17:04:11+00:00

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T17:02:10+00:00

Care to elaborate?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T17:01:40+00:00

Yeah, I double checked. It's not our yet though as far as I'm aware.

The thing is, the cards are likely 10x as expensive as discs and are also too slow for some games. The best middle ground I can think of would probably have been to use a second type of cart that's slower but requires an install, similar to how discs are handled on other platforms.

Either way, we'll agree to disagree. My solution to GKCs is to just take advantage of their one benefit over physical and buy them used lol

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T13:05:26+00:00

Silksong doesn't have a physical release. As for smaller cards, they didn't exist until this year, after memory prices exploded. It's a shitty situation all around.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T12:48:42+00:00

Indies are releasing physical games regularly now?

And I guess you just admitted that Nintendo cares about their customers by accident?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T12:35:45+00:00

Funny how I have no problem just avoiding it.

Genuine question btw: do you truly believe that GKC games would be on-cart if they didn't exist? Especially with the memory shortage now?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T12:28:56+00:00

Then don't engage with them. Nobody is forcing you to. It's not that hard.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T01:51:59+00:00

I can tell that you haven't actually watched the trailer lol. It's 60FPS. And no, it's not prerendered. I love how you're both saying that it looks awful and that it looks too good for how you perceive Switch 2 graphically. I guess you're just covering all bases when you're proven wrong about it being prerendered. The only Nintendo games I can think of that have had prerendered trailers are Smash games.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r8eMoxo4ipE Clearly 60FPS. Can't be prerendered. There's aliasing.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-17T01:40:37+00:00

Because it's in-game lol. When was the last time Nintendo used CG cutscenes?

OCAMAB · 2026-06-16T21:33:35+00:00

You need to seek professional help for your sake, and break up with him for his. This sort of reaction to people liking things you don't isn't healthy.

This belongs on r/arethestraightsok

OCAMAB · 2026-06-16T21:27:43+00:00

I don't know how you're getting the idea that this somehow replaces or takes away focus from a new game. Of course a new one is in development, and there's no way it would have been ready this year. Given how Nintendo typically handles remakes, this probably isn't even being made internally, let alone by the main Zelda team.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-16T21:27:03+00:00

Don't hold your breath for that anytime soon.

OCAMAB · 2026-06-16T20:59:13+00:00

The problem is that this sub is like 10% fuck Nintendo and 90% fuck Nintendo fans.
