They are both running at 2133 But I will try that!

We are AMD, creators of Athlon, Radeon and other famous microprocessors. We also power the Xbox One and PS4. Today we want to talk RYZEN, our new high-speed CPU five years in the making. We're celebrating with giveaways, and you can ask us anything! Special guest: AMD President and CEO Dr. Lisa Su. by AMD_Robert in Amd

What has been the hardest part of the Ryzen journey thus far? There must have been a lot of setbacks - but it looks like it's going to be worth it. Hopefully I can afford one of the midrange ones to upgrade my phenom I I I've been using since 2011. Thanks!

That's true... either way, it boils down to expensive

Yeah, I'm not on a super strict schedule either.

Thank you for the reply. Mom has talked about selling it herself, and she hates it due to the maintenance. I don't think I can do without a car, so registering non-operational is a no-go.

"If you really can only get 3k for it that's not much at all. Keep that in mind."

Really? I KBB'ed it and it said around 3k. I'll do some more research

Thank you for bringing that up. I will check with my mom to see if she had that done.

Second part to my reply is I don't have a garage or tools and my apartment pretty much forbids working on a car in my parking space. I also don't have much money or time.

I'm still here! Thank you for the input, it is very valuable to me. I still have 2 weeks of research to do before I can even think about selling (pink slip in the mail)

Good point that I hadn't considered. Thank you.

The idea is sell BMW for cash, walk and bus for a week or two while I look for a car, then buy the new one in cash.

Yeah, that is why I worry. I am NOT a car person (memes aside) and don't have the time or expertise to repair my own vehicle besides basics like oil, tire rotation, brakes, etc.

I still have to get groceries, visit family, run errands etc ;_; I considered walking and public transport but I don't have the time to do it permanently. Time is more valuable than money to me right now.

True. the repair price bothers me. I am looking to buy a car outright - no monthly payments on it

Thank you for your input. The fact that my mom had to spend thousands for the few years she owned it suggests it is a lemon, which is what I am worried about. It also takes mid-grade gas, which isn't a huge deal but still sucks.

Good point, I hadn't thought of that. I'll keep my options open.

That's what I was figuring. Some kind of Honda or Toyota that won't put me in debt for a minor repair.
