Ah I remember the old days when a ram generation lasted longer than two years.
Yeah, the days of DDR3 and PCIe 3.0 seems like eternity.
We'd be all hype when they managed to squeeze another hundred megahertz out of it.
I’m still on PCIe 3. But that’s mostly because changing motherboards is a pain in the ass.
I'm on PCIe 3 AND DDR3. My Z77 & i7-3770K will NEVER DIE!
Did I mention I'm also game using the integrated graphics HD4000? Trying to optimize a game for 30fps 720p is already half the fun. Currently OC the shit out of that poor piece of silicone. 4.5Ghz all core (default 3.7} and 1.4Ghz graphics core (default 800Mhz). Imma squeeze every last bit of performance I could.
I paid for a CPU with Tj Max 105C, you bet Imma run it at 105C
If that CPU dies it will haunt you for the rest of your life.
GDDR6 debuted in 2018
