## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can this run facebook messenger?**
A: yes and can also run the solitaire game and minesweeper.

**Q: Does this come with a valid excuse i can provide to my wife for buying?**
A: Speedy multitasking including online shopping and delivery. I wish i could tell you it also arranges returns for your wife but it doesn't.

**Q: Will this run Duke nukem 3d in 720p?**
A: It can run Duke Nukem 3D on ultra low settings but you'll be lucky to squeeze 10 FPS out of it. You'll also likely need an AIO running liquid nitrogen to keep thermals under control.

**Q: will this processor work with the auros xtreme x399 motherboard ?**
A: No, it won't work. Don't confuse the TRX40 Aorus Xtreme with the X399 Aorus Xtreme. The latter board only supports Threadripper 1st and 2nd gen which use the X399 chipset. This 3rd gen CPU uses the new TRX40 chipset so it won't work. Check the manufacturer's website.
