Alright, time to see if this mobo will work with the new cpu without an update. It straight up says it supports it on the box but the bios update was released after the board was, also it is a used mobo so that could go either way. If I do need an update I'm gonna have to find someone around here with a 12 or 13 gen.

We have life! The gamble paid off! Hell yeah! Special thanks to my roommate for letting me use his little display for testing here.

I've raised my minimum FPS in the Cyberpunk benchmark to above 60 whereas before it was 45. That's pretty much what I was looking for so, hell yeah :meru_B: I know this is going to make shit like video editing way faster too.

I didn't do a before/after test with anything else, but I know it's going to help PSO2 also because that game REALLY loves when you have a lot of fast RAM. Back when I was running 2133MHz and got the 2666MHz ones, I saw a performance boost of, no joke, like 30 FPS in some areas. So Now I'm able to run at 3400MHz with this new CPU I wonder how much better performance will be. I'll still keep it locked to 90 FPS regardless lol, but having the overhead is nice.
