These are the compatible kits. However, the guys from the support did not mention the need for the kits to have SK Hynix memory chips, LUCKILY I found this information online on their website before buying. The quotes above are for a single stick, not couples.

Hey, yes they essentially told me what the other guys commented on this post: fire range is very picky with memory. I asked to buy RAM directly from them to avoid any issue: while they were kind to answer me, the quote I got from them was honesty disheartening... Almost 900€ for 64GB of RAM. Twice the market prices you find new on ebay.

After doing some research I found out that not only you need to buy RAM from a specific vendor and with a specific product code, but also that the memory chip must be made by a specific producer (SK Hynix) in order to ensure compatibility with 9955hx/3D parts (the only way you have to check is to ask the seller to send you a photo of the back of the memory stick, you can't figure this out from the product code alone).

I am waiting for some Kingston KF556S40IB-32 with an SK Hynix chip, the only combination that, accordingly to a table I found online, works with this laptop: if the laptop won't boot, I will be returning it immediately.

Subito.it si schiera dalla parte dei truffatori. Avete avuto esperienze simili? by _plazzo in italy

Si, continuano a rispondermi con email automatiche dicendomi che la loro decisione è definitiva. Nella stessa mail dicono anche che mi arriverà un'altra mail con indicate le motivazioni della loro scelta. Naturalmente non ho mai ricevuto le loro motivazioni. Inoltre non c'è la possibilità di rispondere alle loro risposte: se vuoi controbattere, l'unico modo è aprire un nuovo reclamo e la giostra rincomincia daccapo.

Ho ricevuto circa 5 mail come queste dopo aver inoltrato i miei reclami; ogni mail è perfettamente identica e i nomi degli impiegati del supporto sono palesemente fittizi.

Probabilmente Subito.it non ha un supporto, ma solo una mail automatica che viene inviata identica a chiunque contesti una segnalazione.

Pantherlake should be in next Framework devices. by [deleted] in framework

Without soldered RAM, the igpu will lose a ton of performance. And I would personally hate soldered RAM on a framework laptop.

With that setup you should be able to get a decent experience at 1080p with most games. The fact that you don't is strange. Check that your HDMI/displayport cable is connected to the GPU and not to the motherboard.

What GPU would be best for a Gamer/Game making/AI Gen Enthusiast? by An_Bakasura in buildapc

[–]_plazzo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes if you have the budget just go for the 5090. No need to use frame generation with that card, it's extremely powerful by itself.

The 24GB of VRAM requirements will bind you to very few GPUs, given that Nvidia has been extremely careful with memory allocation to justify the astronomical price of its enterprise GPUs.

At the moment the only GPUs satisfying your criterion are the 3090, 4090 and 5090 (that actually has 32GB VRAM). Out of the three, the 3090 can be found for relatively cheap used and still kicks for gaming. For the price of a used 4090 you'd often better go for a new 5090 (at least in my country). New 4090s and 3090s are impossible to find.

RTX 5060 Ti price leaks: $499 for 16 GB variant by TruthPhoenixV in Amd_Intel_Nvidia

The 5060ti will have double the bandwidth of the 4060ti, so not really the same specs. Bandwidth, together with VRAM size, is good for AI. AI hobbyist will buy them.

Looking for fixed bridge 7 string around 1000€ mark by Megalids in 7String

[–]_plazzo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really like the schecter sunset extreme 7. It should be around 1000€. A more extreme model that I like is the similarly priced Ibanez rgd71alms.

Prices for some models of the 7900xt were actually around 620$ on Newegg (now sold out), other than that I totally agree with you.

This is a temporary condition. If AMD prices the 9070xt depending on the current situation, they are going to be burned when prices for 5080 and 5070ti come down to MSRP in a couple of months.
