I am not going with the Xeon recommendation. I just agreed to buy an i7-5960X for $37 though...
Here's all the details:
1. I have paid for the RTX 3080 and I am waiting for the FedEx shipping estimates.
2. Moments ago I agreed to buy the i7-5960X and I sent the seller my address and asked for...
Doing a little price negotiating with a member on the 64GB of RAM.
I have a local Microcenter and I can get two 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 Corsair Vengeance kits from them for $136.
I think the motherboard has a limit of 64GB. I never checked the CPU's RAM limit.
Motherboard specs:
"Eight DDR4 DIMM slots supporting up to 64 GB Up to Quad Channel, 2133-3200 MHz"
I was just looking into that! So if I get rid of my current 16GB (4x 4GB) kit and I want to get 64GB, does that mean I need to get four 16GB sticks?
Sorry if that's a dumb question, I've been out of the hardware game for a while.
I will consider the CPU upgrade you mentioned btw...
LATEST EDIT:
I have purchased 64GB of RAM from Micro Center and it is installed.
Now I just need to receive the RTX 3080 and the i7 5906X CPU that I have purchase from the fine folks here.
I have purchased an RTX 3080 from shoto1699 on this forum. Just need the memory now.

I am buying my first domain today for a comic selling business. It is available at Gandi.net that MrGuvernment mentioned above and it looks like a better deal than GoDaddy.
I have never owned my own website so if anyone has any helpful tips for me, I would welcome them.
In the short term, I...
I just started using NordVPN as my first VPN. I paid $99 for 3 years and now I see this news.
How worried should I be? Is my data and traffic still protected?
If I only turn it on when I need it, should I be that concerned about my bandwidth being co-opted?
Please pretend that I know nothing...
So if a crewman decided to roast some sea birds for fun, is there a system in place that can prove the weapon was fired?
"Sir I don't know why, but those sea gulls have been spontaneously combusting all day long on this side of the ship."
I use the Curse chat app and I really like it, but I need more people to play Overwatch with.
Inside of Curse you can search for groups and I am currently hanging out with the Pure Onslaught group.
If you want to post your Curse chat group, please do! Or you can join Pure Onslaught if you...
I have no love for AMD since I haven't been able to get a fucking business card or any graphics cards for review from them.
But I shudder when I think about what will happen if Nvidia's only competition fades away. Prices will go up and innovation will slow.
If AMD dies, is there anyone that...
In the first sentence of the last paragraph of the conclusion it looks like you are missing the word "want".
"...because certainly we do not want qualified individuals..."
Good article though. I talked to AMD at PAX East over the weekend and they gave no hints that something like this was coming.
