Episode Description

What's better then an episode of the PCPer Podcast?  Two of them at once!

The reviews of the 9950X3D2 are in from discerning reviewers.  TL;DR; - it's not for everyone, but it's very much for some.  The return of the 3060 is almost here, wait - DDR pricing has an upside?, D-Link routers take another beating in the security section, XBox mode, and the tipping point is here for IPv6 (I know, I know:  much wow, very excite!)
