Rules
-
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.
-
No Unoriginal Sources, Referral links or Paywalled Articles.
-
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.

I wouldn’t get a 4080, the card is still so horrendously overpriced that if you’re in the market for one you might as well just get a 4090 and get actual flagship performance. You can even pair it with, like, a Ryzen 5 7600 or i5-13600K, because gaming really still doesn’t scale noticeably above the i5/R5 tier, and at that point it’s only, like, 300 bucks more overall.
The 4090 has never been more expensive lmao. Goes for almost $2000 on most store websites ☠️ The 4080 is the better option rn
