I check in almost on a daily basis, sometimes more than once, but even I wasn't quick enough to catch this one ten days ago:
 
My 5 y.o. MSI motherboard began to disintegrate yesterday(ram slots no 2 and 4 are inoperable and the PC won't load with 4 ram units installed).
I planned a new assembly anyways. I will be going for Ryzen 3950x when they become availiable in Russia. Please advise me which motherboard would fit it best, the market seems weird, most if all not boards have their flaws. Also I think I will try liquid cooling this time.

AMD Graphics Cards (and Consoles) Will Work with Future G-SYNC Displays, NVIDIA Confirms

Pretty huge news. I almost gave it a discrete thread. NVIDIA is trying to sell this as more light-sided accommodation, but of course, they're never a light side company when they don't have to be. Don't fall for it. The truth is plain as day. NVIDIA is throwing in the towel, completely.

Freesync won. All hail AMD.

I feel that consoles having AMD graphics played a big part here.
BTW any news on high-end AMD graphic card releases?

Maybe, yeah, but most console owners aren't so savvy they understand VRR, and most game on TVs, anyway. I think it probably has more to do with them realizing that on top of their ridiculous pricing, gamers began to factor the "NVIDIA premium" on monitors into their GPU purchases, and this finally took an undeniable effect on GPU sales, especially with the release of the RX 5700(XT) cards.

Roadmaps are out, but I haven't seen anything beyond that. Think it will be a while before we do. The major video card retailer just in the past six weeks began to ship meaningful volumes of dual fan variants of the new cards for discrete consumer consumption in the American market, and we're always first.

Sad. I guess I still have a month or two before assembly since we don't have 3950's availiable yet, but I am kinda hesitant to buy an Nvidia card. Probably will buy a 2080 and when new gen rolls out later give it to my dad so he can have nicer graphics in world of tanks.
 
I sort of went on a buying spree recently and picked up a 3900x system, and ordered a 10980x to replace my 7820x.

The former was a prebuilt (first time going that route) and I got a fantastic deal. Overclocks to 4.4ghz on air, and I am scoring almost 3400 points in CB15.

While I am dissapointed in Cascade lake, it is a drop in using my existing x299 board.

If the 64 coure Threadripper comes out early next year and doesn't cost more than $3K, I may just build a one and done dream system and sell/give away the rest.

Acer didnt even care with how they packaged it. Only one of the six sides had padding.
