That guitar intro was completely unexpected but wholly appreciated.

Having quarterly updates would be awsome, that way we can see how bios updates progress, how long it takes to hammer out Xpo settings, how the loop holds up etc. Absolutely more updates please!

[andromydous]

Personally, I think it would be a good idea to do an update video after 90 days or so. Every review you see is based on such a short time period that you don't get to see long term, hidden, issues. Or even how the bios matures after a period of time.

I had an x570 Taichi give up almost a year in. Luckily Asrock was a G and RMA'd it. This was really cool of them, because I no longer had what I needed to RMA the Mobo. They basically went "Er, you know what" and replaced the board.

Dust in the wind is one of those ones that sounds simple to play but is actually tricky to learn. Well done!

[xero]

Any long term reviews are always welcome. So many products get better (or even much worse sometimes) over time that I'm shocked that long term reviews are not more of a thing.

Would love to hear another update in 90 days! Love to see how the system shakes out and how it meets your expectations and maybe what you would have done differently looking back

[Drivenapollo]

An update in 90 days would be great to see. Also, the guitar addition was awesome. Really felt like a view into Jays home life. Like a Mr Rogers feeling.

Thumbs up for you playing the guitar for us. And yes, please update us if they fix the AMD Expo issue for your board/X3D.

Jay, I've been using a 7900X & an Asus X670E Motherboard since October of last year, I've had nothing but issues with the motherboard since day 1, with the unknowns if the PC would even post or not, more than half the time it wouldn't, this was all RAM related. I flashed the latest BIOS of 1413, and I see more DOCP profiles available to pick from for my RAM, and my PC posts every single time. I hope it gets more stable for you!

Jay, full disclosure: a video from you like this is very refreshing. I love these at home videos where you are 100% comfortable and in your element (even more so than your shop) and it really comes through when you are solo. There’s something about getting personal and bringing the experience home with you to share to us all that rlly makes it feel like you’re inviting us all in for a real personal opinion from one enthusiast to another. The guitar was icing on the cake man. I absolutely love Linus and his whole team and everything they’re doing over there, but stuff like this just hits different and it’s whole heartedly appreciated. Watching your content feels more than my friend taking me on a journey sharing your experiences than anyone else, and for a man like myself with no friends my own age that are as passionate about tech and experiencing it’s glory, what you bring to the table is refreshing and inspiring. Keep it up my man, you rock 🤟

[CupheadAleks]

Definitely want more updates! I'm sure there are a lot of us upgrading to AMD for the first time and are looking for more than just one time reviews.

[JustinDavis]

Jay, you're killing it on that guitar. I do enjoy your insta content when you publish it.

[Pacificstar]

I just completed my 7950X3D build, only using 2 sticks (32gb ram) on a Gigabyte board and EXPO has been working just fine, though I'm not even a week in. I hope it stays steady for you

[s_t_i_c_k_y]

I thought you were going to play the guitar for 2 minutes and say, "Oh sorry, just waiting for my PC to boot."

[justicereese]

This is an absolutely immaculate system. Jaw dropping even, but the thing I'm jealous of is that Jay's Aida64 sensor panel runs and works correctly and does not crash the system and kill the graphics driver.
Great h9b as always on the system Jay and you're really coming along with the guitar. :)

[Eshcole]

From guitar lessons to nice guitar intros is the kind of growth I'm here for. Awesome video Jay!

[BCKammen]

I would like to hear how you feel about the CPU at the 180 day mark, as 6 months to me gives a better idea of long term status.

[kendeldouglas]

Hoping to see an update. Not the most tech savvy to be a tinkerer but been wanting to upgrade my 10 year old pc and was going to mirror this build for myself. mainly to get as close to the top of the line as I could and obviously for aesthetic purposes 🧐. Your videos help me a lot with getting educated on all the different tech/product changes over the years. appreciate the videos and content fam 💪🏾.

Love the music soothed my soul for the day. As usual, great vid.
