AMD Processors HEDT Monitors

My New Decade Build List: Beginning Plans For My Future Setup

PC Build

Christmas eve is now here, which means a variety of new tech deals ranging from the good and the ugly, most likely until around the new year. Therefore, I wanted to mention the latest release of AMD’s new 3960x, 70x and 90x, and a variety of new smart gear. I want to get a partial start on a PC Build I will make next year or in two years

But lists can not always happen to do to budget limitations but we’ll try our best for what I would want in this instance. Here is a researched list of PC Parts I would want for my new build in the future. Image Credit: HappyGamer

Ryzen 3900’s CPU Series

I feel like the 64 core 70x is good for not trying to damage your heat sink in a quick course of time if used carefully, going off the results of testing on several computer modeling applications, on a HEDT. I have a feeling like until 3990x comes out the number of cores was running from won’t start to become a more manageable feature for current and future HEDT models.

We can theorize when the 3990x comes out it will be more of a replacement CPU for higher-end builds. I can’t imagine buying it all at once. AMD can say the TRX40 feature in the CPU already contains one socket, so most likely the 3990x will be a 128 thread singular chip. With a 288MB cache memory holding, tests do show it has the same TDP as other GPU’s in the 3900’s generation. This is only approximate as the heatsink effort for the 3970x would still be less intense. But, like all theories, we can’t be sure for whatever PC Build until the shocking $3000 release in January 2020. AMD will most likely provide more data in January about CPU usage, and or how pricing can work out depending on the user.

This would be similar to the already released 64 core EPYC I would partially assume, or for the least experimental purposes. Like the 3990x this is also a 128 thread. We would get used to having more extended support for motherboards and server sockets, for example on the 1P and 2P servers on the EPYC 64 CPU. Slightly different but the same idea. Note this is also a 14nm at the same time, so we are getting a familiar experience in some aspects from either CPU regardless.

Deciding between the two, it would be easy, at least what your build is for, but since the release is in 2020, in this scenario I would stick with the EPYC but than would switch to 90x in probably a couple of months prior to whatever burn out happens to it, maybe for gaming more frequently, high rendering modeling software and anything in between.

More on the 3960x, this was released two weeks ago on the 25th, as of this publishing. What I find different about the 3960x compared to their second-gen counterparts is the new STRX40 sockets. This is compatible for more recent motherboards that would support it. But this also includes general advancements as well like DDR4 PCIe 4.0 and more. I like this as well since more CPU’s in 3rd gen AMD also use Zen Core Architecture. For a more slight overclocking boost and a cache L3 boost up to 2x. This also includes better PHP OpCache up to 2x in 4k. I suppose it leaves intel a more of a burden. Especially with one-upping AMD’s 14nm graphics, but that’s only one minor example.

New HEDT’s To Pick From

I like regular monitors, well at least ones that are around 25 inches. I do notice patterns of slight lag and other forms of burn out overtime with high functioning applications. But when I want to improve my current laptop VGA to desktop build, this would probably be my last concern. As it is an ASUS VE278 with 1080p graphics.

I found another Asus monitor recently out, that is only 2 inches shorter in width. It is also a 23 inch VC239H. In which would hopefully resolve future laptops to desktop DVI connection issues. That is if it is not an issue with the cord itself. This monitor has mixed feedback for what it is.

This monitor is good for eye protection, and many people do stay up late past 9 on monitors like this. So in a sense it has been proven to be effective. This tends to be one of the reasons of burn out for some people’s relationship with their monitor. When their eyesight quality with the desktop decreases or the display wears down over time.

If this can’t be my main option of a new HEDT, there is an alternative 27-inch monitor. This would probably be too big to have on my current desk. But I feel more the look is what would outweigh it. My current desktop has bezels that could be smaller but it still has a modern 2019 look to it. Besides this, I still have a better chance of buying the 23-inch monitor though. This concludes what will be in my first part, I will see you all next decade. The 20’s will be a revolution for Ledge Techs
