AMD discussion

Asking because AGESA code is released by AMD and it's responsible for temperature to frequency ratio. AGESA 1004abb that my BIOS has now gives core temperature too much importance and drops frequency and performance when temps cross 62c, at 71c it already drops by 100MHz from top boost frequency. 1003 wasn't that much sensitive but RAM handling wasn't great.

Yes it is 1006 and here is a shot of my Build
I am keeping my 6950x in tact and tearing down the 8086k instead
The ram i am using is 32GB of 3466Mhz Trident Z

Hi,

AMD RX 6000, RX 7000, RX 8000 & RX 9000 XT & XL GPU Branding Revealed In Crypted XFX Radeon Models

I saw a leak video and those were not the Branding names
They are going back to the HD series type naming if you recall HD4600 HD5600 HD5700 HD6000 HD7000 series skipped 8000 went for those R9's

Pretty much what i am seeing should be similar 5600XT 5700XT possible 5770XT 5800XT 5850XT 6800XT 6850XT 6900XT 6950XT this is just an assumption but here is the leak Video



FYI, Used to Crossfire HD5670 gpu's and HD5770 also did HD6850 Crossfire and HD7970'S Crossfire
After those i went back to Nvidia and purchased a 780TI lol

So might have to hold off buying a new GPU then just in case the price drops for the 5700 XT for a few months then.

I did forget to mention top skus are the ones with 70 -90 at the end of the branding like HD6900 HD6950 HD6970 HD6990
Back in the day AMD had something for everyone and very affordable
