I just had to buy a replacement 9800X3D yesterday because the previous one from early 2025 fried Saturday night. I paid $10 less for the new one, was very surprising. This post caught my attention because I had to remove and reinstall my Noctua cooler.

Oh I completely agree, but in legal terms it actually works. Ridiculously stupid loophole.

We don’t even have proper consumer Wi-Fi 7 routers, why the hell do we need Wi-Fi 8? Wi-Fi 7 is supposed to support simultaneous multi-band connections per device and not a single consumer one does this. The most expensive ones out there will do this weird thing where it’ll communicate in a rapid alternating signal, but that’s still not proper. Even if they support 2.4, 5, and 6 GHz, and include multiple radio chips, they are giving us the shittiest Wi-Fi 7 experience.

And that’s not even to talk about how “Wi-Fi 7” is the actual standard and some makes are skirting this by calling what they do “WiFi 7” simply so they can avoid false advertisement.
