I have been watching Buildzoid videos about mother boards recently. The guy mentioned that all MSI boards do not have negative offset on them. As far as I understand it makes the whole system run cooler and saves energy. It also sounds like the board without offsets tries to shove additional energy into CPU.
Can someone explain how the offset works?
What are the consequences of absence of this feature?
I am looking to buy x470 board for 1600/2700/2600/2700 processor right now.
I also do not have a running system right now. So I was looking to buy something and Ryzen seems to be the way to go.
A second part of the question is what to do right now if you do not want to loose money on the declining value of 2nd gen processors after the release of 3rd gen? It seems like the prices for 2nd gen are dropping every day. Are the prices going to drop substantially for 2nd gen after the release of the 3rd gen or have we flatted out for the foreseeable future based on your educated guess?
I will add another one. I want a b450 or x470(preferably) under $200 with post code and all kinds of reset buttons. Is it possible to get a board with those features for under $200? From what I searched I could not find one. Asrock taichi was the only one with the post code at around $200. Do you know of any other boards? I was looking at ATX form factor or bigger.
