"Quarantined" it, as they do.

rich sinew
#

Some have check mark's, And some don't on each line

gaunt dragon
#

Where has 8 bf4 sections?

#

Event viewer? Or a firewall?

rich sinew
#

Firewall allowed app's.

gaunt dragon
#

Ah.

#

Yeah, make sure any and all things related to Origin have check marks on them.

#

Even if they aren't there right now, add them.

#

Most of the time, guilty until proven innocent, in the case of AV's.

#

And they'll jack whatever files, and put them wherever bfv can't find them

#

idk. av's are dumb, hopefully that fix's yours, I don't have anything blocking mine, and that's still my error, a week later.

rich sinew
#

ouch.

#

I'm also using an app from my phone, Which share's internet data to my PC through a USB. It does block my Ping (Which i'm not trying to hide).

#

Stiiiiil Crashed.....:(

rich sinew
#

@gaunt dragon I think it just may have to do with an Nvidia Update i did last night.

oblique chasm
#

Is anyone else finding that map load times between rounds to be very long?

#

Im in a squad with a mate and he seems to get into new maps within 30-40 seconds, yet i can find myself waiting 5 minutes some times

#

usually i just alt+f4 and we look for another server

red ingot
#

@rose eagle your narvik with snow is so good

#

Rip my fps

#

I think I might have to upgrade

#

96fps for the 1% time ohhh baby and 133 avg

#

I'm gonna assume that's all ultra 1440p

red ingot
#

I'm actually super tempted to order.. cpu ships from the states and avg 2 week shipping time 🤔

#

Who needs money anyways HaHAA I'll just sell my body on the streets

shadow summit
#

Anyone else cant chat ingame? Whenever i press Enter after typing the msg nothing appears in chat

steep gust
#

@oblique chasm Get an SSD and better connection

#

@rich sinew Dont disable windows defender if it doesn't help.

If it does, find what its blocking and allowing that through

#

If its crashing from being blocked, make sure it's set to run as administrator

rich sinew
#

I think it's Nvidia's update i did last night.

Where is my 20 WEEKLY ITEMS WITH AIRLIFT in BFV Deluxe? Preorded at 23 May (first hour)

rose eagle
#

@red ingot no I don't play full ultra, who the hell does that

#

@red ingot you got a 1080ti?

#

I'm still getting 100% CPU at times but now my GPU is 100%

prime jasper
#

Its 20 overall

#

not weekly

#

I play on ultra @rose eagle

sonic osprey
#

@rose eagle all low, 1440p and 9700k gives 133fps max, being GPU capped at that point or cpu?

red ingot
#

Wait so what did you benchmark on @rose eagle

#

🤔

#

And I do have a 1080ti

#

But I still get insane frame drops

#

And I mean ultra with all the garbage like film grain and all that stuff turned off and post processing low aa low

#

But everything else ultra

#

With that setup I still get frame drops

rose eagle
#

@rose eagle GPU is capped but CPU is also still getting pegged often ;P

#

i wish i had a 2080

red ingot
#

Did u just tag yourself

#

🤔

#

And how tf is a 9700k getting pegged

rose eagle
#

yea and so groggy i didnt realize it

red ingot
#

I guess bfv just really likes sticking it up the butt

#

Ffs

arctic veldt
formal ridge
#

That’s the build boys

#

Finally got it

#

I’ve read and watched nothing but great things about that gigabyte mobo

#

And how it crushes handling overclocks

rose eagle
#

as long as you dont plan on actually paying $110 for windows 10 woahtea

#

Dell s2716dg back to $600 at best buy so missed out on $100 savings there ;P

#

@formal ridge ive found my 9700k insanely sensitive to memory speeds so kinda wishing i had gotten 3200

#

not sure higher than that is critical though

#

my PC booted as 2166 instead of 3000 and the difference was over 20% FPS loss

#

but my 3770k had DDR3 1600 no problems

#

seems minimal diff on 3000 vs 3200 but 3866 ram seems impactful for even 8086k?

prime jasper
#

its overall @arctic veldt

#

They fucked up the description

#

110$ for win 10?

#

wat

rose eagle
#

i mean that's its retail

prime jasper
#

who tf pays that

#

You can get win10 for 20 bucks

#

Or even cheaper from ebay

rose eagle
#

i need office again, i lost my HUP key x_x

#

but i dont wanna pay even $1 lol

prime jasper
#

Crack it then

rose eagle
#

im old, i dont do the newzbins

prime jasper
#

lol

rose eagle
#

im too vulnerable to doing something stupid since im so out of the loop on that shit now ;P

prime jasper
#

Just dont use torrents

#

unless you are running a VPN

rose eagle
#

60c max load on my 9700k with me AIO

#

with occt

#

plenty o room to OC!

#

if my gpu is 100% im prob good with the 9700k as is though

rigid knoll
#

Paying few thousands for hardware, but refusing to pay 110e for the most used software running on that hardware? picard

rose eagle
#

aint got no money to buy OS after $2000+ in hw? 😄

prime jasper
#

What kind of logic is that @rigid knoll

#

lmao wtf

#

im dying

unborn epoch
#

windows is only $5 or something

prime jasper
#

yea ikr

#

110 my ass

unborn epoch
#

dunno how to cheap out on office legit though

prime jasper
#

thats easy

unborn epoch
#

previously i used microsofttoolkit

#

but who needs office

rose eagle
#

i mean yea i could put what i do into google

red ingot
#

My mom is a professor part time so I get her pricing for office

#

Which is $11 CAD

#

Yay

#

And panda I saw your narvik benchmarks and it was like ~40fps higher than on your 3770k

#

Which is a lot...

rose eagle
#

yea i had insane dips in Narvik

#

esp when snow happened

red ingot
#

But not on your 9770k

#

🤔

storm osprey
#

avg fps was 40 higher?

red ingot
#

That's what I saw

#

Unless I'm incorrect

#

He didn't have a comparison graph for it

#

I just compared it to the old picture

storm osprey
#

@rose eagle confirm?

rose eagle
#

not sure which he's lookin at hehe

storm osprey
#

id imagine 3770k vs 9700k on narvik

rose eagle
#

i dont recall doing a specific narvik

storm osprey
#

martyr yag

red ingot
#

No u didn't do a specific jarvik

#

Narvik *

#

But the uh other benchmarks u did

#

It was like 92 avg fps

#

I guess maybe I can benchmark narvik myself and see what I get vs your results

rigid knoll
#

Regardless of the actual price, you missed the point entirely.

red ingot
#

What point

storm osprey
#

i think windows os

#

you can get it for 12 bucks off some website

#

codes are probably stolen, but they definitely work

red ingot
#

Can't u even just use windows OS for free

#

And just have the "unvalidated " watermark on your desktop

#

And that's the only dif

unborn epoch
#

just get a $5 oem key ffs

red ingot
#

Why spend $5 when u can spend $0

storm osprey
#

yea, my front room build has that

#

but you miss out on features at some point

red ingot
#

Oh ok

#

I thought it was identical except for the watermark

storm osprey
#

nah

#

you cant change background

red ingot
#

Tbh I just upgraded both my pcs from win8 to win10 for $15 when they had that offer years ago

#

Ah

storm osprey
#

sometimes some stuff is missing from the computer command

#

i just got a legit on sale for 80 bucks

prime jasper
#

once i switch to win10 ill use a modified version anyway

red ingot
#

Meh just get a $5 key then

prime jasper
#

cant be bothered with updates, bloatware and spyware

red ingot
#

Lol

prime jasper
#

i just want the OS

red ingot
#

Dont blame u

prime jasper
#

nothing else

red ingot
#

Windows update is a pain

rose eagle
#

3770k stock vs 3770k OC vs 9700k

red ingot
#

Damn

unborn epoch
#

what modified version

red ingot
#

131 avg vs 95 avg

#

That's 36fps

#

🤔

rose eagle
#

and look at the graph itself

#

it's very streamlined

red ingot
#

So smooth

#

Ugh

rose eagle
#

yw

#

;P

#

spend all the monies!

red ingot
#

105 for 1% vs 62

#

That's 43 fps dif too

#

Fuck it

rose eagle
#

lol

storm osprey
#

is this just bfv?

rose eagle
#

well yea

unborn epoch
#

what do you have now yagman

rose eagle
#

what else would anyone play?!

storm osprey
#

other games

red ingot
#

That's like 40% increase

#

In fps

rose eagle
#

i mean this is prob not an issue in literally any other game 😄

unborn epoch
#

path of exile

rose eagle
#

V just rapes

storm osprey
#

it seems worth it for bfv, but is that the only game?

red ingot
#

Hey well it also future proofs a bit

#

I'll have to upgrade at some point

rose eagle
#

nick what you got again? cpu gpu

unborn epoch
#

i'll probably bite the bullet when 8core becomes mainstream

red ingot
#

In theory new games will begin to run into this issue

unborn epoch
#

7700K

red ingot
#

Oh yeah you're fine

rose eagle
#

ah yea thats what my buddy has

red ingot
#

I'm on a fucking 4770k

rose eagle
#

no he's not

#

that's a 4c8t

#

its basically a 3770k OCd

red ingot
#

Still better than my cpu

unborn epoch
#

not at all

red ingot
rose eagle
#

not really

red ingot
#

Really

unborn epoch
#

IPC is waybetter

red ingot
#

Wow

unborn epoch
#

you idiot

red ingot
#

Rip

storm osprey
#

damn i have the worst cpu, 4790, non k

red ingot
#

Why non k

rose eagle
#

my friend has a 2080 and 7700k and my 3770k OCd matched his FPS in game man

red ingot
#

Isn't it usually only $10 more for the k

#

Afaik

rose eagle
#

in V anyway

storm osprey
#

i was going for an i5 but the 4790 went on sale for the same price

unborn epoch
#

he is an idiot then

red ingot
#

Oh I see

rose eagle
#

my friend is at 50% cpu because he's on a 7700k

#

you explain it

#

GPU

storm osprey
#

i got my 4790 for 250

red ingot
#

Welp fuck it

rose eagle
#

sorry

red ingot
#

I'm getting a 9700k

unborn epoch
#

he probably disabled HT because muh meltdown

rose eagle
#

he is CPU bottlenecked

red ingot
#

Gotta pick a motherboard now

#

Wait

#

Panda

rose eagle
#

i mean he is in major security ill ask him

red ingot
#

What settings btw

#

To confirm

prime jasper
#

ima wait for 8 core CPUs lol

red ingot
#

I'll just sell my body

unborn epoch
#

hell, before I really need a new cpu 16core will be mainstream

red ingot
#

It's okay I'll make enough in one night on the corner

#

My butthole will be sore but it'll be worth it

rose eagle
#

all these comparisons were with Post/Lighting/shrubs low

red ingot
#

Its tech related snuggles dont worst

storm osprey
#

snuggles!

rose eagle
#

post kills perf

red ingot
#

But everything else on ultra?

rose eagle
#

yea

red ingot
#

Ok

#

Hbao on.

#

? *

rose eagle
#

no

#

it doesnt impact perf much

red ingot
#

D:

rose eagle
#

just visuals

red ingot
#

Okay

rose eagle
#

makes more shadows

#

fk dat! 😄

red ingot
#

I like shadows

#

Okay

#

What motherboard should I get

#

I already know what ram I want

#

Idk about motherboard

rose eagle
#

i feel like the 9700k could use high end ram but $$$ fk that

red ingot
#

Yeah

storm osprey
#

fuck msi mb's

rose eagle
#

3000/3200 is minimal

red ingot
#

Here I'll link what I was thinking of

rose eagle
#

i mean i like this Taichi 😛

storm osprey
#

asrock?

rose eagle
#

yea

red ingot
rose eagle
#

ugh you get fkd in prices

red ingot
#

Rip Canada

storm osprey
#

wow

#

yea ram is getting close to 120 for 16gb here

rose eagle
#

uhhh wtf your best buy in canada doesnt sell Corsair RGB Pro ram?

red ingot
#

:/

rose eagle
#

..................

red ingot
#

Idfk

rose eagle
#

its nowhere in search

red ingot
#

Best buy Canada is trash

#

I usually dont even bother checking there anymore

rose eagle
#

fk.,. $202 for the corsair from your amazon

red ingot
#

Lol

rose eagle
#

rip $50

#

that's like 30% markup

red ingot
#

Yep

#

Feel my pain

rose eagle
#

nah, i pay $600/mo in healthcare

#

ill trade you 30% on goods

storm osprey
#

600$?!

rose eagle
#

for my healthcare costs

#

yup enjoy having a family some day

storm osprey
#

thats all family right?

#

ok

rose eagle
#

3 people, $200 a pop

red ingot
#

Damn

#

Well yeah I guess i pay $0/month for healthcare

storm osprey
#

was about to say, im like 180 a month for myself

rose eagle
#

i mean that's a lot of spending monthly

red ingot
#

Huh

rose eagle
#

$200

red ingot
#

So I guess overall I save

#

:D

rose eagle
#

perspective

#

lol

red ingot
#

Hey I "save" $2400/year on healthcare

#

So I guess 30% markup isn't a bad tradeoff

storm osprey
#

and at least youre spending money that causes the markup, we pay for healthcare for the "possibility" of it happening

rose eagle
#

unless you spend $600/mo in stuff you pay 30% more on

#

which would make us even

storm osprey
#

but still, we pay for something we dont always use

rose eagle
#

i just changed my plan to an HSA

#

my company matches up to $200/mo

#

so i pay less and get shittier benefits but end of year ill have enough to cover full deductible

red ingot
#

True

rose eagle
#

oh yea.. not only do we pay $200/mo for each person, you have a $1500-$3000 deductible where you pay out of pocket for all expenses til you meet that

#

and then they cover 80%

#

so i paid $200/mo for myself this year and had a kidney stone, i had a CT scan which cost me $1800 out of pocket

#

this year my total family spending on healthcare was ...

#

~$12,000

red ingot
#

Damn

rose eagle
#

my wife had to have surgery on her Achilles and i had my kidney stone

#

fun year

red ingot
#

That fucking sucks

rose eagle
#

her surgery cost about $3k out of pocket even with ins

#

insurance is for when you almost die

#

like she did in 2016

#

$3.2 million

red ingot
#

Shiiit

#

Holy fuck

#

What

rose eagle
#

our out of pocket was $10k because they cap you

red ingot
#

3.2 mil

rose eagle
#

yup! lol

red ingot
#

For what

rose eagle
#

that was the final bill

red ingot
#

Holy shit

rose eagle
#

3 months in ICU

red ingot
#

Damn

#

Time to move up north

rose eagle
#

ehhhhhhhh its cold

storm osprey
#

well me being young and healthy, i have NEVER been in the hospital for anything even remotely major, i think the worst was a fever of 104 when i was little, and a sprained ankle

rose eagle
#

i have wrist issues

red ingot
#

We can live in an igloo together

storm osprey
#

so i pay for basically nothing

rose eagle
#

we thank you for paying bills with no claims 😉

red ingot
#

You're welcome

rose eagle
#

lol

storm osprey
#

seriously

rose eagle
#

slaps @red ingot

storm osprey
#

its absurd

rose eagle
#

i mean that was me for 10 years til all this

red ingot
#

Lol

#

Ouch

rose eagle
#

gotta have healthy people paying premiums

#

to cover these $3mil fkin bills

#

i prob bankrupted blue cross

#

of Oklahoma

red ingot
#

Damn

rose eagle
#

they tried to double our rates

red ingot
#

Fuck that

rose eagle
#

luckily i got her on my company plan after that

red ingot
#

Tell them to shove it

#

Nice

#

anyways

rose eagle
#

lol yea her premiums went from $220 to $600 actually

red ingot
#

Motherboard

#

Holy fuck

#

3x the rate

#

Jesus

rose eagle
#

ASRock is underrated

red ingot
#

Idk

#

I mean I'll say outright I'd prefer Asus

storm osprey
#

asus is my go to

red ingot
#

Yeah

rose eagle
#

i mean obviously a z390

storm osprey
#

then gigabyte

#

ive only used asus, msi and gigabyte

red ingot
#

I've had both asus/msi boards in the past no issues

rose eagle
#

the problem imo... Asus brand is good, amazing laptops.. but like most companies, only their high end is good

#

ASRock all levels are good

storm osprey
#

msi the only brand to give me problems, multiple times

red ingot
#

But nyphon says msi is garbage

rose eagle
#

msi IS garbage

#

😄

storm osprey
#

i didnt say its garbage

red ingot
#

So mebbe I got lucky

#

Idk

storm osprey
#

i say fuck msi

red ingot
#

I'd prefer Asus then

rose eagle
#

i mean unless you wanna buy their best board

red ingot
#

But idk what board

rose eagle
#

the z390 Taichi is $304 after MIR

#

what Asus you buying?

prime jasper
#

Anyone have the sennheiser game one headset? Recommended? I need a headset mic combo for gaming

storm osprey
#

i know a lot of people that wont get ASUS

#

@prime jasper slight audiophile and very serious gamer here

#

get the massdrop x sennheiser pc37x if youre in america

#

if not, game one is good

#

but i prefer a headphone with a standalone mic

#

desktop or modmic

rose eagle
#

slides the cheap Hyper X II name in the hat and laughs

prime jasper
#

oooh. I like the design of the massdrop

red ingot
#

Lol

sour ivy
#

Anyone know of a good bluetooth adapter for my headphones

red ingot
#

I got one for $15

rose eagle
#

hey man i like my hyper x 😃

storm osprey
#

hyper x is fine

#

i just dont do closed back anymore

#

open just more natural, and less sweaty

sour ivy
#

I got a super cheat adapter and it's disgusting

#

Cheap

red ingot
#

Mine has lasted me a while

#

Lemme see if I can find it

rose eagle
#

$70 vs $120 i guess is the only diff, 120 aint bad for a gaming headset on the massdrops

red ingot
#

that's the one I have - got it for $15

sour ivy
#

Merci

#

I need a name brand like that I got some random piece of shit on amazon

#

Thing sounds so bad

red ingot
#

lol

#

yeah i mean full disclosure - ive only used that bluetooth adapter for my xbox controller ($15 for that vs $30 xbox dongle)

#

but hasn't failed me yet - been like 2 years

#

so uh what about this

#

like there's so many z390's and idfk what the dif is

rose eagle
#

oooh bluetooth for xbone controller for things like Rocket League?

#

id love to kill my cord

#

@red ingot yea i researched forever =/

#

no one on pcpartpicker has any reviews

red ingot
#

yeah can connect wireless xbone controller via bluetooth or xbox dongle

#

bluetooth was cheaper

#

and oh so u cant find anything @rose eagle

rose eagle
#

mobo supports BT but isnt intergrated i think

#

not sure what that means

red ingot
#

BT?

#

yeah me neither

rose eagle
#

can get module instead of usb?

red ingot
#

idfk there's 15 fucking boards

#

i know i obviously dont need an $800 board

#

but there's like 10 in the $250-$350 range and idk what the dif is

rose eagle
#

it would be between the Gigabyte AORUS and ASRock Taichi for me

red ingot
rose eagle
#

if you just arent feeling the ASRock

#

i mean i get it, brand loyalty, unknowns

red ingot
#

asrock taichi is about the same price

#

just looked it up

rose eagle
#

i had my ASRock z77 Extreme4 for my 3770k and it OCd insanely well

#

obviously

red ingot
#

so i mean meh may as well go for the asus - cause yeah I feel it and well i'm not saving any with asrock

rose eagle
#

every board "can" have issues

#

every vendor

red ingot
#

oh no 100%

#

asus does have superb customer service/rma process tho

#

I had to rma an asus board way back

rose eagle
#

yea ive never bought Asus and know ASRock so same idea for me

red ingot
#

they do 2 way shipping

rose eagle
#

until ASRock does me wrong

red ingot
#

so they send u a new one while yours is sent back

#

got my replacement in 3 days

rose eagle
#

then id switch to Gigabyte or Asus

red ingot
#

rather than the normal 2 week wait

rose eagle
#

yea warranty is important

#

thats why i like EVGA for GPU

red ingot
#

yeah so asus is superb when it comes to warranty

#

and yeah same

#

ive heard evga gpu is top notch

#

anyways

#

which fucking board

rose eagle
#

prob with Asus is too fking many choices 😉

#

ASRock there's really only 1

#

lol

red ingot
#

lol

rose eagle
#

you lookin at Taichi or Taichi Ultimate for price?

#

fk ult

#

has some LAN feature and BT or something

#

bluetooth

red ingot
#

naw i just saw their prices and it was actually more than the asus boards

#

so i didnt even look further

#

so i went to the website and found a "compare" option

#

im comparing those 3 rn

rose eagle
#

wait what, this board supposedly has Bluetooth support over wifi?

#

Intel® 802.11ac WiFi + BT 4.2

red ingot
#

oh man there's so much info

#

im so fucking confused

rose eagle
#

just do nothing

#

😄

#

xbox controller has to be newer S model?

red ingot
#

lol

#

dammit panda

#

halp

rose eagle
#

this claims i need Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows

#

ASRock!

#

😄

#

comparing all the Asus brands was too much for my head

red ingot
rose eagle
#

-AEFGHWEE

red ingot
#

Same here

#

I'm losing it

#

you did this

rose eagle
#

blame the V

#

always blame the V

red ingot
#

If you hadn't upgraded this wouldn't be an issue

#

But now that I know what's waiting for me on the other side..

rose eagle
#

serious Q

#

whats your GPU at in game

storm osprey
#

what about xbox controller are we talking about?

rose eagle
#

trying to get working on win10 with my BT on my motherboard

#

seems its not that easy

storm osprey
#

the new xbox controller has bt

#

the textured back

#

if its not textured, it doesnt have bt

sour ivy
#

I'm still using a 360 controller:P

#

It does it's job

rose eagle
#

textured on the battery pack?

storm osprey
#

i have a 360, a wired xone, and the bt xone

#

its textured around the grips

rose eagle
#

ghetto even my xbone s doesnt have texture..

unborn epoch
#

is bt even that good

#

i just bought a dongle

red ingot
#

okay i think i've decided

unborn epoch
#

why

#

your cpu is fine

red ingot
#

go away nick

unborn epoch
#

save money on a generation, you can easily do with what you have now babygirl

red ingot
#

i want that 40fps

storm osprey
#

depends on the bt you have and how youre trying to use it

red ingot
#

I want my fps back

unborn epoch
#

the .1% 40fps who cares

red ingot
#

the 1%

#

too

#

the dips kill me

unborn epoch
#

path of exile runs fine n your machine

storm osprey
#

i bought an asus adapter that i routed a wire to the front of my table for my front room build

red ingot
#

-.-

storm osprey
#

it works fine that way

red ingot
#

i don't want fucking POE

unborn epoch
#

yes you do

red ingot
#

no

unborn epoch
#

you want to play games with me don't you?

red ingot
#

id rather do the forbidden

#

naw

#

it's okay

unborn epoch
#

yes you do

red ingot
#

i can do without u

unborn epoch
#

now u lie

red ingot
#

😄

#

u shunned me so many times

#

that i've just given up on you

unborn epoch
#

twice

red ingot
#

two times too many

unborn epoch
#

so it be like that huh

red ingot
#

im a sensitive flower

#

it do be like that

#

fuck me

#

$1200

unborn epoch
#

WAIT a generation

#

they'll fix meltdown and introduce HT back into their 8core chips

sour ivy
#

Front room build omega

red ingot
#

speculation

unborn epoch
#

yes

#

also $1200 for 40fps 1% increase

red ingot
#

i dunno, i gambled on passing up my 1080ti

#

waited for 2xxx

storm osprey
#

love my front room build, i built it into my tv stand

red ingot
#

and they were garbage

unborn epoch
#

9700k is not that great either

red ingot
#

better than 4770k

unborn epoch
#

1080ti on the other hand, is amazing

red ingot
#

it is

#

i want to have big peen

unborn epoch
#

well get 9900k then

red ingot
#

lol

#

then ill have to sell my body and my first born child

prime jasper
#

no

#

sell its livers

red ingot
#

see

prime jasper
#

liver

#

and kidneys

red ingot
#

the 9900k is garbagio

unborn epoch
#

what do benchmarks say about the 2700x?

red ingot
#

it's actually pretty comparable

#

that's what im looking at rn

#

9900k/9700k like no dif

#

2700x actually keeps up for the most part

storm osprey
#

i wouldnt get 9900k unless you are going to stream or use it for production

red ingot
#

no that's what i mean

#

that's a definite waste of $$

#

question is, do I wait like 2 weeks, or spend the extra $40 on express shipping

prime jasper
#

wait

unborn epoch
#

i'd get 9900k but i do things that make use of it

#

it's not ideal for games

red ingot
#

ohh

#

i found the motherboard on sale for $45 less on amazon

sour ivy
#

Free 2 day shipping ez

red ingot
#

yee

sour ivy
red ingot
#

but still have to wait on ram/cpu

sour ivy
red ingot
#

rip

#

express shipping drops to $35

#

fml

sour ivy
red ingot
#

hm

#

this works out tho

unborn epoch
#

what is even express shipping

#

your country is weird

red ingot
#

board isn't in stock until Dec 3

#

so it won't arrive until Dec 5 - 7

#

which by then hopefully the other stuff is in

#

hm and then all shipping is free

#

works well

unborn epoch
#

if i order now i;ll get it by tomorrow 10am

red ingot
#

fu

#

go away

unborn epoch
#

why is usa so bad

red ingot
#

Canada

#

canada

unborn epoch
#

why is canada so bad

storm osprey
#

usa is great

formal ridge
#

So higher ram for the 9700 isn’t good?

red ingot
#

cause all my shit is shipping from the us

#

that's why it gonna take so long rip

#

once it arrives in canada it's like 1 day

sonic osprey
#

what ram speeds 9700k supports?

red ingot
#

but takes like a week to get outta the us

storm osprey
#

@formal ridge intel doesnt benefit from high ram speeds like AMD does

#

at least for gaming, afaik

unborn epoch
#

but it still benefits on certain areas

#

if you can go faster for not too much, go as fast as you can reasonably afford

storm osprey
#

just get 3200

#

at least in america the price difference is like 10 bucks

sonic osprey
#

Yeah, so I have heard that 3200 is the sweet spot with no added benefit of 3600 or 4000 even

#

maybe 0.5-1fps, with the current cpu architectures

formal ridge
#

I’ll go look for 3200 now

red ingot
storm osprey
#

i thought you had 3200 in your part list?

#

oh shit you changed it

formal ridge
#

Yeah I thought I would benefit from 3800

red ingot
#

i have 3200 in mine

storm osprey
#

wait, why is 16gb of ram 256 bucks?!

#

oh right, 3800

formal ridge
#

Lol

storm osprey
#

yea, get 2x8 3200

#

should cost no more than 150 for something good

unborn epoch
#

jump from 3600 to 3800 is 80~100 bucks here

red ingot
#

unless you're in Canada

unborn epoch
#

3200 is as cheap as 3600

#

interdasting

red ingot
#

okay im pulling the trigger

unborn epoch
#

pewpew

red ingot
#

🔫

unborn epoch
#

💥

#

u need new case too though

#

and beefy CPU coola

rose eagle
#

"I ended up picking the Asrock Taichi over the Strix z390-E. Mostly due to the Taichi having better power delivery. Their features are much the same, although the Taichi has 3 m.2 slots instead of 2 for the Strix."

#

i love confusing you

unborn epoch
#

strix has baller RGB

#

what does YOURS HAVE BRO?

rose eagle
#

ballzinass RGB

#

full deep pen

storm osprey
#

asus gaming stuff is a rip usually

#

strix and rog shit

red ingot
#

fuuu panda

#

lol

#

and yeah rgb

#

😄

storm osprey
#

good, not denying that, but ffs the prices they charge

red ingot
#

yeah

#

but i did look up the taichi

#

it was actually more expensive than the strix

#

in Canada at least

storm osprey
#

taichi had a good sale amonth ago here

red ingot
#

canada versions had nothing

#

on the bright side im getting my motherboard $45 off and my RAM $20 off.. so $65 savings? yay?

#

yayyyyy

unborn epoch
#

isn;'t canada and usa the same

sour ivy
#

Canada isnt a country

storm osprey
#

canada is the friendlier usa

sour ivy
red ingot
#

eeeek

#

rip my wallet

unborn epoch
#

apologizing for everything doesn't mean friendlier

red ingot
#

yes it does

unborn epoch
#

no your logic is poop

sour ivy
#

Oh CanAdA

unborn epoch
#

poonada

#

wants fastest fps, lowest latency hardware

#

plays with EU overlords

sour ivy
red ingot
#

lol

rose eagle
#

is teh RGBs on the Taichi

sonic osprey
#

how many fps with those POGGERS

rose eagle
#

12

unborn epoch
#

does it have rgb headers

rose eagle
#

so many simulated electrons

#

yase

#

1 addressable

unborn epoch
#

niiiiice

storm osprey
#

nice build

#

looks like you know what youre doing
or got help :kappa:

rose eagle
#

just kinda sucks i cant hide those AIO lines

unborn epoch
#

get rid of the cable sleeving

#

it looks poop

rose eagle
#

not enough room

storm osprey
#

also, i HATE that the stickers on your fans are rotated 90 degrees

rose eagle
#

the tubing is too tight, it wont bend at that angle

storm osprey
#

did you get build advice from snuggles?

rose eagle
#

case too smalls

#

lol damnit Nyph..

storm osprey
#

turn them

#

pls

rose eagle
#

i hate you

storm osprey
#

it kills me

unborn epoch
#

ya wtf majic

rose eagle
#

didnt even notice, connected it pointing at me

#

was gonna be top mounted....

#

til i learned it doesnt cool as well

unborn epoch
#

tbh, you probably did it right because of the cables

storm osprey
#

NO

#

fix it

rose eagle
#

or top mount it

storm osprey
#

the cables are long AF

rose eagle
#

and they are facing right way

#

and will be hidden

#

i can tuck those cables up top if i top mount but pretty sure ill gain 8-10c on cpu

#

so says online reviews

storm osprey
#

just turn the fans

#

mount them again to rad

#

pls

#

im begging you

rose eagle
#

if it gets top mounted they need to be turned!

#

then they will be the wrong way again lol

storm osprey
#

just leave it as front intake

#

idc

#

just fix the fans

rose eagle
#

i think im going to make one upside down and one sideways and send you a screenshot

storm osprey
#

ill block you

rose eagle
#

or rip off the stickers

storm osprey
#

i dont need that negativity in my life

rose eagle
#

then you'll never know

#

so.. why i did it this way is because the cables from the fans go out the correct way

#

i cant just easily turn them then the cables will be pointing up

#

geebs u aholes

#

😄

storm osprey
#

route it along the edge of the fan

rose eagle
#

gonna make me turn off my pc!

storm osprey
#

thats how i did it

#

also...

#

wait

unborn epoch
#

why not get wi-fi fans man

storm osprey
#

wouldnt it be better to put the fans in front of the rad

#

so youre pushing the air through the rad from outside?

unborn epoch
#

by pushing you clog up your radiator super fast

#

so when that happens, you have to remove fans, with this setup you just remove the air stuck ontop of the radiator

#

performance wise it doesn't matter much

rose eagle
#

the mesh on the front of my case absorbs all the dust as well

#

but yes

unborn epoch
#

ya it wont get everything

#

if you run that machine for a year, it will be clogged up

storm osprey
#

id imagine that pushing air is better than pulling it through the rad

rose eagle
#

and theres a nice pull out mesh underneath, i was surprised how much dust comes in from the bottom of your case

#

this case is so fkin easy to clean it's great

#

nah it's offset by the nice air you blow across your board

red ingot
#

lol

rose eagle
#

and ram, components etc

#

often times your OC is limited by too high temps not related directly to your CPU

#

but no i got no help, i built er, just the recommendation on fans from Nyph, those Cougars are great

#

i immediately removed the fans that came on the EVGA

#

i heard they were noisy and these cool 100% no problem and dead silent

#

they dont even need to be RGB, the ram glows bright enough to light up the orange lol

#

storm osprey
#

i wish more people got these fans

#

underrated

rose eagle
#

they're running 1500rpm controlled by the EVGA

#

i cant hear my rig at all anymore

#

compared to that leaf blower of a 212 Evo

#

the pump has noise which is interesting but you have to put your face up to the case to hear it

storm osprey
#

its nice when the pump is the loud part

rose eagle
#

i can make the mobo do all kinds of breathing crap, the RGB is pretty solid

#

easy controls with ASRock software

#

and it stores it, dont have to have the software running

#

unlike the EVGA cooler

#

ill prob disable the evga cooler software from now on, it was set to change colors on temp but not worth having another piece of sw always having to be running

#

who had the h100i?

#

my camera made the lights glow, the blue mobo leds under the ram looks really awesome because it looks like circuits

#

you cant see it through the glow extrapolation

#

stupid s8+

storm osprey
#

yea majic, front intake is best for cpu and overall temps

formal ridge
#

FINALLY

storm osprey
#

same ram...

formal ridge
#

LOL

#

Shit

#

Hold on

#

There we go

#

Can’t wait to OC that bad boy to 4.9ghz

drowsy beacon
#

Only 512gb of storage, do you have another ssd or HD?

storm osprey
#

yep, other than ssd i fully approve it

#

assuming you have a case and psu already

rose eagle
#

4.9? i mean the all core boost is like 4.7

storm osprey
#

question, does OC increase base fr and turbo in 1?

formal ridge
#

I have another TB ssd

storm osprey
#

or are you bypassing?

formal ridge
#

As backup

rose eagle
#

mine wont take a stable OC at 4.8 atm

formal ridge
#

Panda what’s your stable clock?

storm osprey
#

when you OC are you basically saying "just run this at all times"

rose eagle
#

i mean unless you can get 5ghz it seems pointless to OC a CPU that has a boost of 4.7 all core?

storm osprey
#

we are at the cap of coffee lake

rose eagle
#

yea im not bothering to OC my 9700k

#

it isnt being nice

formal ridge
#

So out the box am I sitting at speeds of 3.6 or 4.7?

rose eagle
#

during full operation 4.7

#

itll idle down when not needed

formal ridge
#

But when in use it jumps to 4.7?

storm osprey
#

when it needs it will

rose eagle
#

yes i just use hwmonitor to see the speeds

formal ridge
#

So dope

#

I learn something new

#

Everyday

storm osprey
#

if your browing chrome you dont need 8 cores at 4.7

formal ridge
#

Hell yeah I do

rose eagle
#

im not sure what the diff of a 3.6 core 4.7 boost is vs 4.3 core 4.7 boost

formal ridge
#

4K porn

storm osprey
#

doubt that even needs that

rose eagle
#

#

Boom

storm osprey

there it is

#

4k 3d vr pron

rose eagle
#

ew

#

lol

#

i mean, there are times i wish i could slap my wifes boobs and her not get mad so maybe

formal ridge
#

I’ll just keep everything stock for now out the box

storm osprey
#

yea majic i have that feeling too

rose eagle
#

yea i mean BF eats all 8 cores lmao

storm osprey
#

just seems fun

rose eagle
#

its insane

#

fking, insane

formal ridge
#

So I heard lol

rose eagle
#

if BFV can 100% 8 cores, 4c is hilariously outgunned

storm osprey
#

boob slapping?

formal ridge
#

Which is why I choose the 9700k

rose eagle
#

like, nothing exists that can take the full brunt of the V 😄

storm osprey
#

thats what she said

rose eagle
#

its just too much!!!

#

look away!

formal ridge
#

So the build I have is fine?

#

Correct?

#

Nothing else

rose eagle
#

to each their own 😉

storm osprey
#

build is insane

formal ridge
#

That’s what I needed to heard

rose eagle
#

my EVGA 280 CLC is keeping the 9700k cool 60c max temps with OCCT full bore

#

A+ cooler

#

occt is cpu rape

formal ridge
#

It was between that and the NZXT x62

rose eagle
#

nzxt should be close to same temps

#

let me know 😉

formal ridge
#

Will do

#

I bought a NZXT case off some guy for $20

rose eagle
#

i was surprised it comes with its own thermal paste

#

wanted to use my fancy shit

formal ridge
#

He bought a prebuilts from cyberpower

rose eagle
#

lawls

formal ridge
#

And got the case off him for $20

#

I’ll be using that for my build

#

Lol

rose eagle
#

paying someone for 1 hr of labor x_x

@unborn epoch poe is very important but it runs like solid 144fps so ;P

poe on my 9700k 2070 every setting showing as Default

you not get that on your 7700k?

#

My game has been extremely frustrating lately

#

It has been stopping for up to 7 seconds at a time without any real indication to why

#

I should also mention that it only started happening recently with no changes to my build or system settings

#

Could I get a hand?

unborn epoch
#

hmm

#

it freezes 7 seconds?

#

or black screen for 7 seconds

#

i get the black screen thing too, haven't looked at the cause yet

rose eagle
#

yuck, i tested speed mapping a T8 with my end game totems build

#

thats what that fps result was

unborn epoch
#

what u mean

#

oh

#

ya speedclear and full iiq/monsterpacksize is different

#

also 6man party is what makes the game super laggy

#

and lowfps

#

i get max fps all the time solo, pretty much

#

so hyped for 3.5.0

#

so many changes

#

hold me majic pls

gaunt dragon
#

SSD gets here today, first game to load on it is probably gonna be Monster Hunter World.

#

New CPU and Mobo get here in 2 days

#

waiting is boring.

#

also, friend last night said I might need a sata power cable for my ssd today??

#

I've never really installed any drive prior to this point though, so I have no idea if I do or not

latent light
#

does monster hunter world still have problems on pc

gaunt dragon
#

In what way?

#

The connectivity issue that plagued the game for the first few weeks of it's release?

#

Yeah, that's been 90% fixed.

#

If that is the one you're talking about

#

Error code MW1 or some shit, disconnected from the lobby

#

super annoying when it happened

unborn epoch
#

if your psu isn't 10 years old it probably has sata power

gaunt dragon
#

welllllll

latent light
#

what SSD did you get

gaunt dragon
#

let me get the link

#

intel 3d nand 256gb

#

or something

#

"Intel 545s 256GB"

latent light
#

uses a cable like this to the motherboard

gaunt dragon
#

yeah...sooo

#

my existing hard drive in there right now, doesn't have one of those

#

it only has 1 cord coming out of the front

latent light
#

and the power connector looks like this

gaunt dragon
#

o.

#

well...

#

then nvm.

unborn epoch
#

haha

#

you'll have to wait a day longer

#

you can get molex to sata converters

latent light
#

oof

gaunt dragon
#

My system was pre-built, so they added another sata power cable

#

and my gf brought over a sata cable last night

#

so I should be good???

unborn epoch
#

sure

gaunt dragon
#

there's just a connector like what grim just linked, dangling beneath my existing hard drive

#

just hanging there

#

cuz dell.

#

So I imagine since there's another dock there, another connector on the board, and another connector just hanging down, it's supposed to be upgraded yeah?

#

I would imagine that's a safe assumption.

latent light
#

the last pic i posted?

gaunt dragon
#

yes

#

the black one

latent light
#

that's what connects the drive to the power supply

gaunt dragon
#

mine's not black, it's multicolored, but i don't think that matters

latent light
#

a drive is supposed to have 2 cables, one for the motherboard and the other for the psu

gaunt dragon
#

and I have the sata power cable dangling down beneath my existing HDD, like I said

#

and my gf brought a sata cable

#

2x cable, no?

latent light
#

should work

molten coral
#

You will be fine then

gaunt dragon
#

Alright, cool. I got told also by the same person that sometimes windows just...doesn't accept SSD's right off the bat, and I'll probably have to do some formatting mumbo-jumbo along the way.

latent light
#

yeah

#

if you want to put windows on it, gl

gaunt dragon
#

Yup, that's what I'm doing.

#

I have a flash drive for a middleman.

#

But, I might just fresh install on the SSD, again.

molten coral
#

Fresh install is always good

gaunt dragon
#

This SSD is OS + Intensive games
