-
Be civil. Uncivil language, slurs, and insults will result in a ban. If you can't say something respectfully, don't say it at all.

All posts must be related to Intel or Intel products.

Give competitors' recommendations only where appropriate. If a user asks for Intel only (i.e. i5-12600k vs i5-13400?) recommendations, do not reply with non-Intel recommendations. Commenting on a build pic saying they should have gone AMD/Nvidia is also inappropriate, don't be rude. Let people enjoy things.

CPU Cooling problems: Just like 95C is normal for Ryzen, 100C is normal for Intel CPUs in many workloads. If you're worried about CPU temperatures, please look at reviews for the laptop or CPU cooler you're using.

Do you think the ASUS Dual RTX 4070 OC Edition for $589.99 is overpriced? Is the 4070 OC worth getting?
The 4070 is comparatively the best value 40 series card, but 3080 performance for $599 three years later is still pretty lackluster. I think the 7800 XT is a much better buy, albeit I’m not even sure I’d call that card good, and it’s the best one of this generation by a considerable margin.
Cool, thank you for your response!
That being said, it does depend on your location a little bit (in particular, if you’re in Europe and dealing with high energy prices, the 4070 might be a better choice for the considerably better efficiency.
