This is what Razer sold me : 

Seems for the Tournament Edition the Switches are RAZER™ LINEAR OPTICAL SWITCH with 1.0mm optical actuation that registers at the speed of light, expect nothing but instant response from every keystroke, as you react and execute clutch plays with clinical efficiency.

Quality is surprisingly good for these two. I will admit that I had other razer products and they failed badly after a few years. These are on a different level and price wise they cost a lot. 

No 8K option for me either with Edge. 

This is actually a good thing. 

It shows the limitations of online shopping in some cases. 

I might be late to the party as I do not have a console, but I have truly enjoyed this game. I was amongst the select few to suffer only 2 crashes in 91 hours of gameplay and those were minor. I was playing TW3 GOTY and almost finished Blood and Wine when this came out. A buddy of mine who died of cancer worked on this game. He was testing the camp fires and Cauldrons. In any case, I am looking forward to Forbidden West and I am not sure I will have the patience to wait for a PC release. I suck with a gamepad so I either learn and buy the PS5 or wait until Guerrilla decides to bring it on the PC. 

If there is one thing 'Suits' has taught us. 
There are billions settled behind the scenes *haha*.

I would have thought Nokia would have been the natural choice anyway, they're in Finland.

We need not ignore Telefonaktiebolaget L M Ericsson who is also fighting for the 5G cake.  I had a look at some financials before investing in both Nokia and Ericsson and Huawei will not suffer as much as people think. They will implement 5G in Asia and that is a highly modernised part of the world. We also have Samsung who recently won in the US and was chosen by Verizon at the expense of Nokia. 
 

Sporting a Razer Huntsman Elite and a Razer Huntsman Tournament Edition. 

Epic thought they are big enough now to disrupt the Apple Ecosystem. 

Some didn't read history. Microsoft, Google tried, who are Epic to succeed?
Just because they made a few billion and created today's cancer in mobile gaming, Epic cannot topple Apple.

You don't have to. That's the beauty of AMD: you can run the 16-core on a $100 motherboard.

I would not go that far to be honest. 

Last time I paired a good CPU with a budget mobo, I ended up buying another mobo after multiple RMAs. 

This combined with Nokia getting additional 5G footprint in Europe means we are learning from past mistakes. 

@rares495

I hope you are right because I would not want to spend 1700 EUR on a motherboard and CPU . 

They simply won't follow the Blockbuster route *haha*. 

My Arias and my Denons :).

I was a little shocked by the price.  I paid $299 for my 1700X a couple months after launch, now that's the price of the 5600X which is only 6 cores.

 

How does the 16 core/32 thread have the same TDP as the 12/24 and the 8/16?

In my opinion AMD prices are slowly creeping out of certain people's budget. 

They were an amazing choice for many. 
I advised a few of my friends to build some AMD rigs last year, it seems they will keep the for a long time. 

Welcome!

MSI makes A LOT of barebones laptops that get rebranded by other manufacturers/resellers. I'm not sure if razer is one of them but it's definitely possible. 

You wanna ruin my weekend?

I think Flight Sim turned out a lot better than this one did though. Only major complaint about it that I heard was people that wanted to refund felt a bit cheated since their first two hours were spend downloading the game with the launcher open, but iirc exceptions were made. Crysis on the other hand has lots of issues with the game itself.

On my side I do not have the hardware to run it. 
I do have the game. 

Big plans for AMD. 
It seems they are trying to increase their IP portfolio to bring in more income. 
Soon we will be paying old intel prices on their parts

I was considering MSI for a future build. 
I got mixed feelings now. 
I even looked at an MSI laptop before I chose my RAZER. 

If rumours are true then @KyadCK you will have some good upgrade path. Depending on what you aim to do with the machine. 

Not a lot of action in this topic!
We need some more noise!!! 

Its that time of the year where my INTEL stocks will go down contrary to the upward shift they had in the past day *haha*.

If Nvidia Corp NVDA.O buys Arm Ltd from SoftBank Group Corp 9984.T, Arm will keep "firewalls" in place to ensure the data center chip company does not access confidential information from Arm's customers or get early access to Arm's products, a top Arm executive told Reuters on Tuesday.

Elusive cybersecurity pioneer John McAfee was arrested in Spain for tax evasion in the U.S., the Justice Department in Washington said.

McAfee is accused of failing to file U.S. tax returns from 2014 to 2018 and hiding assets including real estate, a vehicle and a yacht in the name of others, prosecutors said. An indictment returned in June was unsealed on Tuesday after he was taken into custody. He’s being held pending extradition, the Justice Department said.

The subsidiary in question is called Starlit Partner, and it sells MSI products through its storefronts at both Amazon and eBay. The company often sells graphics cards for prices far higher than the official MSRP (in this case, twice the $799 MSRP), just like we see with scalpers.
