Cool, thanks… I’m doing it for my kids. I know full well I’m being scammed. But my love for my kids doesn’t care. I live playing these games together with them and it’s worth every penny.

Hmm?

That’s kind of what I’m saying.

Myeah. The GameCube was dope.

Plasmas also looked pretty ass compared to OLEDs today.

I thought it played nicely. It’s not a very difficult game anyway. Although there are some mechanics not possible with the switch controllers. Like the analog triggers with the click in the bottom that the GameCube controller had. That was so useful in so many games. Not sure why they got rid of that ever since.

And then there’s me, who bought the trilogy, and will now buy the duology, so I’m getting 4 games for $130.

You must run a bunch of stuff, I imagine.
But yeah, a Threadripper with 96 cores runs at 11k+ USD where I live. There are cheaper ones, like half of that. But that’s still no joke. 5k is still more than I paid for my entire new beefy computer with a 9950X3D, 9070 XT, 64 GB DDR5, 2 TB 9100 Pro SSD, and a 24 TB HDD, plus a very high-end motherboard.
All that, cheaper than a single Threadripper. 😅

What kind of tasks do you do that require over one hundred gigabytes of RAM? Just curious. Video editing?

What are you pairing it to? What CPU?
I wrote the CPU and GPU in the very first comment…
I already bought these components and built the computer already. 😄 It’s a pretty much maximum spec’d AMD system, and I’m privileged to buy the parts tax free through work, so I just went ham.
The only thing is that my 3900X in my previous build was running about 39–42°C idle, so I was worried I’d made some kind of error with the cooling paste or messed up the mounting of the cooler or something.
you were testing me to see what I knew. LOL.
Definitely not; was genuinely a bit concerned, that’s all.

What kind of speeds you get on that old DDR3?

I was being facetious. ❤️
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 5 days ago:
I did some quick research.
The idle temperature for the AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D can vary, but many users report it idling between 50-60°C, which is considered normal for this processor.
Under load, the Ryzen 9 9950X3D can reach temperatures up to 90°C, which is within the acceptable range for this CPU.
I feel confident now. My CPU and cooling seems perfectly nominal. 😌👌

What a good opportunity for some mindfulness for the Turks. Maybe.

You got a better suggestion for an air cooler than this one that I have?
Much appreciated.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 5 days ago:
Near the boiling point of water, sure. I don’t have any water in my system, though. Unless there’s water in the cooling paste? I dunno.
Anyway, there’s a lot of saying this and saying that in these replies to my question, so I think I’ll do some proper research instead. 😅
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 days ago:
Huh.
Well like I said it only takes like a minute with half of my 32 threads utilized at 100 % (so all of my cores I guess?). Might as well keep doing it I suppose.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 days ago:
What does it mean to “process shaders in real-time”? Wouldn’t it be objectively faster to process them ahead-of-time? Even if it’s only slightly faster while running the game?
I mean processing takes like a minute or so, so it’s no big deal. I’m just curious for the fun of it, if I can compile it on the GPU. Not sure it’s even possible.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 days ago:
Okay cool, then I feel more confident. This is only my second build, ever, so I’m a little bit nervous. I didn’t buy any extra fans apart from the ones that came with my case. But I did get that beasty Noctua gen 2 air cooler, and it seems to be holding so far, even in the hot summer air.
- Comment on Bye Intel, hi AMD! I’m done after 2 dead Intels 6 days ago:
What if it hits around 90°C during Vulkan shader processing? 😅 Otherwise like 42–52 idle. How’s that? I’m wondering if my cooling is sufficient.

I saw something just recently where they did like thousands of hours worth of tests but couldn’t reproduce it? Now it’s way worse?
