[ENDED] ChipMixer Signature Campaign | Sr Member+

I don't even want to ask how you managed to do that?

What cpu did you kill?

Was swapping motherboards and I guess it broke when I pulled it out of the socket. Cooler might have put too much pressure as well (accidently made it way too tight).

Fortunately it's only a Ryzen 5 1600 so not too bad. Might end up as an excuse to upgrade to third gen Ryzen but I'd still rather fix it if possible.

Too much pressure shouldn't bend pins. It could only bend the motherboard as far as I am aware of.

The only time I saw bent pins is when someone tried to mount a cpu the wrong way and they got fiddled up with the pins of the motherboard.

Hopes you get it sorted out. If not switch to Intel

AMD is PGA so it's the CPU pins that are bent. I think the cause was that I didn't place the CPU in the socket properly which ended up causing some pins to bend.

I can drop in a 3600 without any other hassle so no Intel (and Meltdown/other vulnerabilities) for me  


Update: Definitely broken despite my best efforts to fix :/
Payments will be sent at around 2 pm MDT as the store opens at 11 am.

Go get a new-gen ryzen. Great value for money!

No rush I think we can handle some delays.

And yes misplacing the CPU definitely fucks things up.

I prefer the smooth way of delivering power of intel vs amd. Each time I had an AMD the raw performance was always good, but in terms of usability I always experienced hickups that never came up with intel. Maybe things changed since then tho. My HW is pretty old now.

I had the same thing with AMD graphics. They looked like a great value for the money but then came problems with compatibility my friends with nvidia did not have. You had to spend some more time setting up the graphics in different games and some offered special features for nvidia users like physx. Intel seems overpriced but from what I've experienced you pay more for additional quality.

That said, I had only 1 processor in 20 years die on me and it was an intel.

My love for ARM remains.

Out of Intel and amd, Intel is generally more reliable. Anyone I know who's competent with computers and has used amd always say its not very good. I don't think speed is everything, faster clockspeeds often mean less efficiency and more instability (even undervolted).

You haven't been following recent developments

Ryzen is actually good, TSMC 7nm is more efficient than Intel 14nm++, and IPC is about the same or better on the AMD side. This isn't Bulldozer anymore!

Minor update, payments will be sent tonight. Need to reinstall Windows (yay!)

How come I never see chipmixer signatures on the gambling section? I've run mixing gigs in the past, most of the traffic came from gambling related activity. I wonder what sort of asset you see on super niche local boards above that. Waste of money IMO.

There's also some people that could be replaced by some of the new applicants which are better posters.

Sorry for interrupting here as it might feel like I'm trying to hijack this thread with some spam here ''

SPB (don't want to use your full name), as I went through the conditions of the campaign I don't see any necessity or compulsion for posting specifically into gambling section 'as there are some campaigns with requirements to post there and I've seen people spreading a lot of 💩 there with their unhygienic posts that doesn't match the criteria of being called as high quality, yet those posts are accepted'. IMO, Chipmixer is a different kind of campaign that does not limit you to post in a specified board\s/ to make it worthless with lots of shitposting there but has got well qualified users who have got the guts to post from their main account to apply. Do you have it?

Why NO POST main account? So much IRRITATED inside, ANGER outside. If you think you deserve a spot here than any of the users you claim to have better posts against, why didn't you post from your main account? If you were a trusted member who comes under an exception, I don't see DS hesitating in contacting you.
