Why is this general so biased?

We only want the best for (You) user and that best is an AMD Ryzen CPU combined with a AMD Radeon GPU for maximum SAM performance.

I have an 8th gen Gigabyte motherboard with a pentuim gold processor, some basic ram. Gigabyte H310m DS2 2.0, intel gold pentuim
I wanted to create a fresh installation with Winblows 10 using a pirated custom installation via usb. The first time around, it gave me a heads up that I have a prioritized legacy BIOS bootload, so I need to disable CSM Legacy. I did this, and it stopped the motherboard from working, giving me five short beeps. I looked this up, and according to gigabyte's website, the clock speed sync failed for the processor. I hard restarted via CMOS clear on the pins, went and changed the flash drive to legacy mode, but now the installation for winblows 10 doesn't see the driver information off the USB stick.
Could it be the motherboard is shit since gigabyte blows, or it being a pentuim? I have never used anything weaker than an i3.

How's spiderman on intel vs amd?

Gotta shill those ryzen/radeons in some way to help best china

Performance is indefensibly bad on either platforms

That seems reasonable at 4k?

Barely breaking 100fps on Alderlake reeks of incompetent game devs
And those 1% lows, lmao

is having 2 ssds a good idea?
One to just put windows on and another for everything else?

That will change with optimization patches.

Yes, but you'll want to make your boot drive at the very minimum 500gb

Playstation game so it's optimized best for Ryzen+Radeon.
Raytracing is a meme btw.

game sucks on nvidia

Okay i think i have this more or less finalized.

Pc part picker didn't have the exact 1060 hence why i'm using the founder edition version.
Also didn't have the exact psu, it's the same exact it's 450w version rather than 650.

From what I've seen, that has something to do with lack of directStorage on PC vs the PS5 and so the CPU gets taxed more heavily with asset decompression. Supposedly.

Source? All benchmarks I've seen so far puts the 6900XT around the level of a 3080
pic related doesn't have the 6900xt but you get the idea

Why the fuck would you get a fucking G cpu from amd

why not?
handy backup if the gpu breaks.

Not exactly a great idea when the whole thing is crippled in order to fit that igpu there

Source is me on my AMD machine. Enable SAM on your 5800X3D.
