Even the cheap $200 mini PCs today with AMD/Intel CPUs will meet nearly all your server needs these days. The intel CPUs can even transcode 4k Plex, though I don't know why anybody would ever use...

Thanks for the reply. I wanna run a few vms and combine my old "server" into one box. I was looking at an apu variant but this came up so figured I'd toss this out as an option.

I don't know the power draw, but it's about average for a desktop chip. Still capable of being cooled by the stock cooler without issue.
Many undervolt it for even more efficiency and see...

120 is still too expensive. It should be no greater than $100

How long ago, and do you think it'll happen again. Only recently started looking at this chip again for my kid's build.

Soooo…there looks like some decent discounts on chips, however the negative comments on a lot of MBs are freaking whacked. Looks like if you’re lucky and get a good MB, great. Otherwise it seems like...

IDK what you consider "properly cool" but it works fine in my experience. Left CPU and fan settings on auto in a SFF case. It did get kinda noisy during gaming with the computer on the desk, but that...

I feel sorry for anyone without a Micro Center nearby.
I think the 7700x was under $100 if purchased in a bundle.

I've had this CPU since launch, no issues and it does everything I need it to no problem. Upgraded from 2070s to 7900gre, still not bottlenecking the CPU. Runs 1440p easy. As for the deal seems...

If you look up benchmark videos on YouTube you will find that this CPU achieved pretty much the same FPS across all games as the ryzen 7. The 7 has 2 more cores and will be faster for multitasking...

as far as amd goes, for gaming specifically, the only cpus worth getting are the standard ryzen "5" (so 5600/x, 7600/x/7500f not the 5500, or ones with limited cache)
or the x3d chips
ryzen 7 and...

Actually the 5700x3d is the sweet spot for AM4. It is $229 on Amazon now vs $300. It is a ~5-10% slower but also ~30% cheaper. You get lower temps also.
Not sure if it will go lower... I am...

Newegg had a 4 hour sale on the 5600x for $99 a few weeks back. If they start doing fire sale pricing on the 5700x. That would be another to consider.
