Podcast #865 – Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Review Situation, Ryzen 7 5800X3D Comeback? HUDIMMs, RTX3060 part duex and MORE!
The reviews of the 9950X3D2 are in from discerning reviewers. TL;DR; – it’s not for everyone, but it’s very much for some. The return of the 3060 is almost here, wait – DDR pricing has an upside?, D-Link routers take another beating in the security section, XBox mode, and the tipping point is here for IPv6 (I know, I know: much wow, very excite!)
