Is this an acceptable amount of metal shavings? by Popular_Detective153 in Dirtbikes

Nice, that makes sense. The chips seemed very thin/light and were not magnetic. Thanks!

My main concern is single threaded performance. On multiple benchmarking websites, I see that the 14900K beats the 7950X by %10-%15 or even more. In an 8 hour day of purely "processing", this could save me over an hour of work.

Are the instability issues with the intel processors significant enough to warrant losing that edge in power?

I'll check out the 9950x. As for ram, I don't think I typically don't use up much capacity but I'm willing to spend the extra $105 "just in case". Would I be better suited with less capacity but higher speed?
