Lets see whats better a unsupported platform or a viable platform regardless of the small difference Ryzen is better.

@@lilsammywasapunkrock All I meant was, putting the best AM4 CPU on the shittiest AM4 board, seems like a really bad idea. And an unnecessary risk. I wouldn't even risk a 5600X on them if I had a semi-decent GPU, honestly. I've seen some shit ... *vietnam flashbacks* These boards are good for office work... Not for extended gaming sessions, with a 150W ish GPU underneath throwing off heat to those shitty VRMs... argh.. It pains me just to think of it.

I am surprised by the result. Of course I had never considered doing this particular speed comparison as server class CPUs (i.e. Xeon) tend to clock lower and rely on multiple threads as their main selling point. I personally have the prior generation older Xeon (x79) but do not use it for gaming. Someone gave me a bunch of older DDR3 ECC dimms and could not resist building something that I could just do some server stuff with. In the winter I can even use it as a space heater quite effectively.

For what you give up/hassle of troubleshooting, honestly it doesn't feel worth it especially if they're similarly priced. I mean the 1600x maybe long in the tooth now but there's a fairly straightforward upgrade path. For me the xeon platform would have to be much cheaper to compete in terms of value proposition. Pretty much 1/2 the price of the Ryzen gen1 platform would be my max. The upgrade path is worth so much and the jump from gen 1 ryzen to gen4 is significant down the line. Everything pretty much working out of the box is a pretty big deal. It's fun to fix and build pcs but trawling through forums in a language I don't speak trying to troubleshoot is not a fun time
@neilychoppers8412 ай бұрын
Perhaps a better budget option for xeons, would be to buy a 2nd hand system. I got a Dell t5810 with the e5 1650 v4 cpu 16gb ram(now upgraded to 32 in quad channel) and a 825w gold rated psu for just over £100. Chucked in my gtx1070 & I'm quite happy with the results. You can also add a pcie nvme adaptor , which the system can boot from. The Dell motherboard is more feature rich than the Chinese ones. Although I'm aware I've no upgrade path for this. Also aware in some countries 2nd hand workstations will be significantly more expensive. Intresting video.

I have the same asus board, got it for 55eur new, 16GB ram for 20 eur and a R5 2600 for 30eur (both used ofc). Its been running fine for a year now, i didnt bother OCing. Hwinfo64 saws "Power reporting Deviation" error, the board doesnt report core/SoC voltage 100% correctly. Maybe its the bios rev. I think chinese X99 combos still has a spot for budget gaming, if the local used market is bad.

Let us know if that Asus board is working. Maybe it needs a bios flash, or don't use the overclocking option. I avoid the Chinese vendor site for the reasons you presented. Support is usually not needed, until it is!

The Asus board works. The BIOS doesn't appear to be the problem. The actual voltage was within spec.

I believe a lot of the 300 series boards lost support for 1st gen Ryzen when they added the 5000 series support. I have an Asus Prime A320m-k and when I got it it had the original launch day BIOS, it worked with the Ryzen 3600 it came with, and a Ryzen 3 1300 I swapped in, then I updated to the newest BIOS and I thought it was bricked, I tried the 3600 and a 5650, both worked fine.

The machinist x99 board i got is a different chipset but only delivers 15 watts max to the cpu and im thinking is holding it back. The bios sucks and i cant figure out how to make it faster. So i had to get a better bios luckily.

Ryzen wins hands down easily only way i can see the intel being better is if you got a good deal from Ally Express for a large 12 core zeon with a compatible board in which case then it's the difference is just higher end hardware compared to lower grade hardware if we still could comparing it to the first gen Ryzen how ever , from a cost perspective it might be the better deal then
