Fletch the Oven Master

The fluorescent glow of the Pizza Hut kitchen had never been Fletch's preferred lighting. His natural habitat, the realm of the orcs, boasted the harsh, beautiful glare of volcanic ash and the flickering torchlight of cavernous halls.

I'm Planning My Next Computer

 

My next computer is planned. AMD launched their new socket AM5 motherboards, X870, and X870E. These have buses of PCIe 4 x 8 lanes and 12 lanes. Apparently, B850 and B840, lower boards, will launch after Christmas, and maybe sooner. The B850 has an 8 lane bus and will do nicely.

The thing is, Intel are now just launching Z890 and I think I will go for Intel. These Intel boards provide an 8 lane DMI 4 bus. If saving money I will go for the Core Ultra 5 processor and not the F model because I would like to be able to use DisplayPort on the motherboard again.

In biding my time and trying to afford this, I may wait and see if Intel launch a H870 motherboard.
