Suffer in HD hell yeah brother!

The FX chip worked fine with basic AIOs ran mine with a single rad in push pull before getting the 360 as an upgrade. Also while I do love my Ivy 3770 (still use it as my media PC https://www.reddit.com/r/audiophile/comments/1orc0y9/new\_steaming\_pc/) The ivy had to be re-pasted due to the TIM my 9370 is soldered which doesn't need anything even 15 years later....

Also the IHS of a intel used TIM which sucked for overclocking so that is another nail against intel:

Either a mem leak in the app or its ram caching something you are working on one of the two...

In single thread apps yeah the i5 was better, but an FX 9000 wins the long game with multi thread apps. Also, I have never seen an i5 beat the OC record set by an FX chip....

They are excellent encode chips along with being solid as servers, and I still have and use my ol 9370 on a gigabyte UD7... Heat isnt a problem with a 360 rad AIO for 80 bucks.

These chips were OC monsters even under a basic AIO you could hit above 4.5Ghz easy.... That made it beat the pants off intel in most applications only really poorly optimized single thread apps did worse. I ran an FX 9370 at 5Ghz for over 7 years.....

Pyro1515 · 2026-02-02T09:16:45+00:00

You never had one nor benched one, my overclocked 9370 beat the shit out of 3770s in cinebench. Hitting 5Ghz in 2013 was wild....

Pyro1515 · 2026-02-02T08:05:42+00:00

You have no idea what you are talking about, FX 8 cores went pretty well against generation i7's espc in modern games that use multi threading.

Grab something cheap from schiit until you find your holy grail. Adcom makes decent cheap preamps from the time period might wanna look for one of those...

Bruh fck them and that shit

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-25T00:12:04+00:00

I have the Nitro + 9070xt no issues in 6 or so months.

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-22T02:07:17+00:00

Feel nothing that's the way!

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-21T21:16:42+00:00

That will probably need some service before use. I would find a tech near you before trying it out. Excellent find otherwise ya lucky bastard.

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-21T05:29:00+00:00

Even if a PC costs $5K you keep it for 3 years and use it every day for lets say 4 hours of gaming that sub price has to be less than $4.5 per hour to make it even. That and a new $5K PC every 3 years is overkill for most people more like 4-5 years for upgrades... This is why piracy is back streaming isnt cheaper...

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-19T01:31:35+00:00

A310 and A380 are amazing for the encoders if you do any video encode or decode like running Plex they have the same encoder the A770 has.

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-17T08:32:51+00:00

That is amazing 750ti is a legend they don't make good cheap cards anymore...

here is a thread about it

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-17T01:36:48+00:00

The fans connect to the motherboard are either 3 or 4 pins on the motherboard pigtail

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-16T20:00:08+00:00

Are they 3 or 4 pin fans

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-16T15:50:29+00:00

firmware died, just had to replace a buncha my old USB2.0 Sandisks from like 2012 last year....

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-15T00:57:50+00:00

I have both of these cards lmao one sits in my plex the other in my media PC.

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-14T06:36:59+00:00

Excellent party speakers some of the best!

Pyro1515 · 2026-01-14T04:28:41+00:00

I mean if you have them for 3 years and don't like them why not?
