@BassMan: kind of thought this too, its just different to me as the 2700 didnt do this, but I guess the 5800x3D is just a hotter CPU with all that extra cache.

So I have upgraded to AMD Ryzen 7 5800X 3D, a cpu that runs a little hotter than most. Its paired with a 240mm AIO cooler, that was keeping a Ryzen 7 2700 at under 30 degrees idle, and 50 degrees in gaming.

What happens when I boot into windows now is the fans are fairly loud for about a minute, CPU temps are in high 70s sometimes 80. Then after a minute if goes down to idle of about 34-35.

Temps while gaming are around 60-70, temps in cinebench & Prime 95 when usage 100% doesn't go above 75.

Wondering if this is normal for this CPU or not, I know its still in the safe temps but not sure if it should boot so hot, and the fan noise during boot is annoying.

I don't think its a thermal paste or cooler issue, because the system wouldn't get down to decent temps and maintain them through gaming and stress tests.

Wasn't looking forward to this knowing the length and how long ago the sequel was, never re-watched original or any catch ups on you tube I thought if a film is doing a sequel over a decade later it should recap the events of the first film.

It didn't so that added a lot of confusion wrecking my brain trying to remember what happened in last film, which turned out to be critical to the story.

If you watch this seeing a catch up of the first film is recommended to appreciate the main story arc.

It was a great film though, I thought it wouldn't be so good as the film succeeded due to the visuals being way ahead of anything at the time. Given how much this tech has improved over the years I didn't expect the film to still surprise me how good it looks (and does 3D well not waste it) also just have a good story as well.

8/10 (recommend to either watch the first film again, or some kind of recap on you tube, and be aware its 3 hours 10 minutes long)

yes, only up to 64 it runs well. Gamecube kind of works but not all games and not great performance.

Final Fantasy V has the best battle theme out of the series

Final Fantasy VII has the best boss theme

I've ignored Nintendo's offerings for the last decade so got a Wii U instead of a switch.

Half the price and a lot of switch games are also on the Wii U.

Been a great buy so far had Monies worth.

However it's just give me the Nintendo bug, once I'm done with what's in the Wii U's library I'll have to look into getting a switch.

Soldier of Fortune Payback, I know it's a terrible game but I love it and still play it occasionally.

Daytona USA, don't really like the game, but seeing the full Arcade cabinet of it something about it is irresistible

Had a couple ps3s, never really valued it for gaming was mainly used a Blu Ray player.

I don't like Sonys exclusives, Last of Us and uncharted were too movie gameish for me and I got bored fairly quick.

Add on the controller is awfull too made it very uncomfortable to play for any length of time.

Loved it, bought it late on in the generation when I got my first job and was able to spend more money on gaming.

I got the console so I could play Resident Evil 4, 0 Remake & Eternal Darkness.

Was worth it for those games alone, who would of thought one of the main attractions of a Nintendo console was horror games
