>Also, not to poke fun at you but are you an ESL? I hang out with a few ESLs and you kind of sound like one.

It is atm nighttime for the US folk so I presume most people here are ESL. Also no homo pls.

do americans really eat artificial butter flavor oil

I'm not american but I'll answer in their behalf: yes, we do

They also eat imitation crab

imitation crab is better than real crab, don't (You) me

Will repeat for more opinions.
12500 or 12700? Will use with my old 1070 for now, maybe upgrade GPU in a couple of years.
Price difference is 140 euros around here.

one stick works fine with stock and xmp speeds.
when I insert the second stick, it stops working and the bios/firmware flip flops and then boots into safe-mode with xmp off. I turn xmp off and both sticks boot just fine.

What's the point of overclocking when my i9 is basically near it's max factory turbo frequency at around 70C doing maxed out CPU work?

i see.... but like, my cpu is still going strong at nearly the same frequencies.

OCers must be delusional or have shitty coolers. also ironically this thing is being cooled by my NH-D14 SE2011. Is there anything even newer than that? the D15 just looks like my D14, but with two 140mm fans.

arent intels supposed to turbo up to 5ghz? my ryzen chip can do 5050mhz on some cores.

yes.
max turbo is allegedly 5.2GHz

lmao

lel. Noctua's was on amazon for only 10 bucks. rip.

>that shipping
oy vey
just buy a cooler with it already in the box

It's a meme, you'll get at most 100-200mhz for a fully stable token overclock unless you win the lottery
70C is pretty chilly. It should be turboing to 4.9 at 80-90C

that's literally all it is
