Delid him. Mine is not delid and run at 4.4Ghz (idle 1.6Ghz) for 6 years. Noctua NH-D14. Run 24/7.

The Corsair look very good https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/corsair-rm750x-v2-psu,5585-12.html

You can overclock the 3770K higher than that. Easily at 4.4Ghz, maybe at 4.5-4.6Ghz.

Nop. Spare your money for now. What is the speed of the CPU? Clock the CPU higher as you can with a good cooler. A cooler compatible to further socket. Keep your 16G of RAM or get 32G of RAM, RAM that you can use with your next platform. Wait for black Friday/Christmas/New year or any bullshit publicity sale for a big video card.

To run DCS, his system burn less then 450w. Video card= 260w CPU at 40% utilization= 80w Mobo (90% utilization)= 70w Stuff= 40w His PSU is at 65% of the max. His PSU (650w max output, 780w peak output, 85% efficiency, high quality 105 °C Japanese capacitor) burn 80w of heat. https://www.thermaltake.com/products-model_Specification.aspx?id=C_00003003

It's something like: Fx9590 4.7Ghz= 220w Vega 64= 300w MoBo= 70w stuff= 40w 630w X 90% utilization= 567w

We know that to run DCS, his 9900K (TDP 95w, overclock at 150-180w) will need around 60w (20-30% utilization). Then, video card 250w + CPU 80w + MoBo and stuff 80w. 410w for DCS

You don't choose a PSU on the wattage that he needs when running a stress test. Because you don't run a stress test every day, many hours per day. Don't forget the "90% of utilization", because (when gaming) the components don't run at full wattage constantly, all together at the same time. The difference between "operating wattage" and "max wattage".

RAM rules: Don't be short of it.

Maybe the Asus Prime Z390-A, Gigabytes Z390 AORUS PRO or Z390 AORUS Elite. A Tier 1, 2 or 2b 750w is more than enough for a single video card system. https://www.thetechgame.com/Archives/t=5613293/power-supply-guide-the-good-and-the-bad.html

I think that he means that 8 cores and HT is overkill for DCS now. Speed is still the winner. DCS will not necessarily need more cores, but the works will be spread on more available cores. Maybe a 9600K? Vulcan is coming

Turn off the PC (PSU switch turn off), remove the RAM sticks, clean the copper with pencil eraser, install the RAM.

Are you Bitmaster?

Not limit at X36? Then... It's worst than I thought :megalol:

Turbo boost tech activates on demand (workload) only. You can enable on 1 core (3.6Ghz), 2 cores (3.5Ghz), 3 cores (3.4Ghz) or 4 cores (3.3Ghz). Or, try in manual settings by the multiplier. Don't know the max multiplier for all cores in manual settings.

Why? Please, run your CPU at full turbo speed (3.6Ghz on all cores). You need it. He has thermal protection. https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/architecture-and-technology/turbo-boost/turbo-boost-technology.html

Where is the OP? :dunno:

:D

You decide what a viable product is? When you don't understand what an early access is :blink: This is not nice to tell in the forum. Keep it for you please:tomato:

Few watts :yawn:
