Intel's X299 launch and new Core i9 processors inspired me to create this video... Buy the Corsair One on Amazon: http://geni.us/nt2A Save 25% off Synergy at...

The Core i7 7740X is a 4-core / 8-thread CPU a step above the Core i7 7700K Kabylake...

I don't think Delta sells retail products in the US. They do make many OE power supplies for Dell, HP, IBM servers, and have a reputation for good quality. But no standard ATX power supplies for PC builders available here, as far as I'm aware.
Delta Electronics is the world No.1 manufacturer of switching PSUs and DC brushless fans.Last edited by qsmcomp; 19 June 2017, 10:43 AM.

After seeing the reviews this morning i lost all interest in the I9 series but got hyped about thread ripper and Ryzen.
I mean this CPU are extremely expensive, run extremely hot, draw a loot of power, crappy TIM and is not that much faster than Ryzen(20-30% taking into account it has 4 core more) plus the chipset is a bloody mess and seem to need some expensive add ons to handle NVMe raids and some other obscure features.
It would had been interesting at 399-499$ but at 999$ LOL, jeez thanks Intel i'll pass this generation and wait for thread ripper to decide if i go Ryzen or TR at the end

Why do you think so? I was rather disappointed to hear some of the Design Choices in Ryzen (Compute Clusters, NUMA), although Intel price gouging got a lot worse with less PCIe links on the lower models etc..

Ryzen's CCXs are fine, they just seemed crappy due to the poor initial memory support. But, "fine" is the best compliment I can give them; the CCXs do still need some work. Ryzen seems to hold up pretty well against Intel once all the patches are applied. Today, it's barely slower clock-per-clock. For the first generation of a new architecture under a serious budget, Ryzen is impressive.

But once you get above 10 cores, you're not going to want to go far beyond 4GHz without encountering thermal and wattage issues. This puts Threadripper in a good position, since the architecture isn't good at OCing beyond 4GHz anyway. TR is also more efficient, so you could likely get by with air cooling on an overclocked 16-core TR rig. Meanwhile, the 7900X is a fantastic overclocker, but people are [rightfully] getting pretty unsettled by how hot and power-hungry it gets even on liquid cooling.

Plus i have a feeling the cache latency in TR will be a whole lot lower with quad channel because i seriously believe those CCXs were meant that way from the beginning and were forced into dual channel high latency to keep ryzen good enough at a spine break price to push intel into panic + lower platform costs specially for B350 boards. i also hope Vega brings a worthy contender to the 1070+ too, so we can have better prices overall

Usually always use Corsair memory.
Unfortunately don't have much of a budget for the higher-end PSUs with not reviewing them anymore, etc, so do have many Corsair and eVGA PSUs for their price.
