AMD Ryzen 9 9900X on the ROG STRIX B650E F Gaming - My perspective

You've seen and heard it all by now.
Mine is yet another opinion and while I can't say these are not good CPUs, it can't be a secret that they didn't capture the excitement of the previous generation.
That being said, still fun to tinker with the platform and of course there's even better performance to be had with some tuning.

I think No need to think about x870 mobos for the 9900x beast. B650E-F is more than enough. Thank you for beautiful video.

it's great to see a South African perspective for PC enthusiasts!

Ive heard there is insanely slow start up times with these motherboards unless you enable something called ''memory context restore'' in bios, but many people are saying that is causing random blue screens and crashes. can you confirm? Sometimes as a streamer i need to restart and be back on stream within 1-2 minutes, so a 2 minute start time is bad for me lol. Someone suggested i with a gigabyte b650 aorus elite ax v2 instead.

want to buy 9900x and this motherboard but already have the psu which is rog 750 watt is thi enough or i have to upgrade this ?

What is the idle wattage and the light load wattage for the ryzen 9 9900x and the ryzen 7 9700x?

9700X like all the previous 8 core Ryzens like the 7700X and the 5800X are simply faster (not stronger), cause they are one CCD cpus with better inner latency than the 2 CCD cpus like the 9900X. Is that simple and thats why the 7800X3D is the best gaming cpu right now, cause it's basically a one CCD Ryzen 7 7700 with 3D cache. Same thing was with the 5800X3D as well. Btw the G series like the 5700G and the 8700G are even faster (not stronger) than the regular Ryzens, cause they are also monolithic and have much better inner latency, but their cache is 1/2, so they are not so good for gaming, but for daily use are even snappier, and also have better Infinity Fabric and can run higher speed memory more easily.
Simply said, It's like moving one hand and moving two hands - ofc one hand is faster, but two hands are stronger XD
