They're the same socket, so no new motherboards needed - just bios update(s) maybe I thinkAlso with the new CPU's might have to wait for new motherboards too...meaning more waiting...I might as well order the built with a 3900XT and be done with.
I’ve heard rumours that new boards may be announced in January, but they’re very early rumours.No new motherboards announced as yet, but they will come. It'll just be a chipset upgrade, not a socket or compatibility one.
The 570 Strix would be the model of choice for the 5900X+
I would personally go for the AsusGood afternoon everyone,
Managed to order my build eventually just over a month ago, but unfortunately i am in queue for the RTX 3080 and someone from PC team told me that my waiting time might be an additional 2 months as minimum. They are just barely processing the orders from Nov last year.
With that in mind, i am considering replacing the 3080 with a Radeon GPU for the time being. Then when i will be able to get a 3080 at a decent price, to replace it.
Any advice which one would be best for gaming from the ones available on PC website, as listed below:
16 GB Radeon Red Devil RX 6900 XT
12 GB Radeon Red Devil RX 6700 XT
16GB Radeon Red Devil RX 6800 XT
16 GB Asus Tuf gaming RX 6800 XT
These are the ones available without a pre order only quote.
Thank you in advance for your replies.
