killamch89 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 This video from the Hardware Unboxed Channel shows the differences between the different Intel B560 boards and it amazes me that they're based on the same reference build but the differences between them in certain areas in unbelievable. You can want the video down below: What are your thoughts about this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyfire Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 I wonder what are some specs that one has to follow to avoid that much barrier of the slow down. I assume that it can get a bit difficult on many points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 is this pretty much the case with the b460 boards? i had to jump at some parts as i really needed to upgrade, got a 10400f and the gigabyte ultra durable b460. i just game, no heavy work load stuff, but i'm curious if there would be a large enough benefit to lift the power restriction. i'm not too familiar with my new rigs options, but i would be able to figure it out if it ended up being worth doing so.

Patrik Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 C'mon, why did they choose B560 as a name, they are going to confused AMD people with this naming scheme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyfire Posted May 30, 2021 Share Posted May 30, 2021 I think shortage would be lasting upto ocotober I suppose. I don't think it'd be possible for all brands considering semiconductor specific shortage is also there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
