standard rule it has fans and a mesh cover
storm osprey
pale quartz
ah the 300a great case
storm osprey
cheapest good case i would get (though not really balanced for a 3080 but should still be good enough) is this
pale quartz
in terms of fans you're aiming for a positive pressure stream meaning a 3/1 front to end fan split, anymore and you're actually most likely going to increase temperatures
storm osprey
and these are the fans i get, though usually not nearly this expensive
damn australia prices are weird
pale quartz
and you definitely will increase the operating dB noise
storm osprey
the more fans, the slower they can run imo
though theres a point of diminishing returns at 3/4 fans
toxic wigeon
I can fork out a bit extra cash if i have to
I want my system to last not break down
pale quartz
they can run slower however the base noise will funnily enough still be louder
4 is generally fine but 5+ you're pushing the back fan to higher speeds to maintain constant temperatures
storm osprey
at 5 i would have 3 intake and 2 exhaust normally
toxic wigeon
I'll admit. I'm not confident putting a PC together cause i don't want to lose hundreds of dollars
If i mess up
storm osprey
its very hard to mess it up
toxic wigeon
Yeah

Ok thanks
storm osprey
i guess we need your full specs, including fans and cpu cooler to know what to suggest, and a budget
toxic wigeon
So really are just the fans at the front enough ooooor?
Is mesh plus frontal fans generally recommended
storm osprey
at bare minimum you want 2 at front for intake and 1 at back for exhaust
pale quartz
they'll be fine yeah
as a general rule 90% of fans nowadays are absolutely optimal
unless you're going seriously critical in something like reducing noise they'll be totally fine

#RGB on top
pale quartz
I couldn't stand it ended up just turning them off for mine
toxic wigeon
To be honest, I'm not even looking for RGB on a desktop, If i get it so be it. Just gimme something that holds everything.
pale quartz
altered components now but you get the gist
storm osprey
so looking at prices, it seems the lian li 215 is probably your best budget option
vs something like this
toxic wigeon
I've actually had a good browse at cases with 3 fans
3 to 4 fans
Cause you put that in my head
storm osprey
I've actually had a good browse at cases with 3 fans
idk what this means
storm osprey
you were looking at cases with 3/4 fans?
toxic wigeon
In a sense, Were keeping an eye out. One at the back 2 to 3 at the front
is that alright?
storm osprey
the silverstone fara f1? i personally dont know it
toxic wigeon
toxic wigeon
So that Hexagonal front would often mean they're an open front?
storm osprey
the pattern doesnt MEAN it is universally, but this case is
pale quartz
the hexagon is just a design
toxic wigeon
Ahhhhhhh i feel like a dumbass asking all these questions
storm osprey
nah dont worry
pale quartz
nothing dumb everybody has questions
storm osprey
seems like the fara r1 pro just adds 1 more intake fan?
pale quartz
iirc yeah
storm osprey
which listening to this gn review they said the case really needs to add 1 more intake to be good
storm osprey
toxic wigeon
I just found this, Seem pretty good
storm osprey

toxic wigeon
Yeah i'm listening to that
Oh
Can i ask something as well
What's a good temp for your comp
Or acceptable
storm osprey
What's a good temp for your comp
i think in general under 90c for most components if "acceptable"
toxic wigeon
Ahhhhh
storm osprey
though most will be concerned if you are in the mid 80's
toxic wigeon
Ahhhhh
storm osprey
cpu and gpu dont throttle usually till about 90c+
supple bane
i do have a 1060 lying around. and i also have a spare slot. but i dont have the psu for it
its got the wattage in theory, but not the cable
storm osprey
why are you sitting on a 1060?!
you can sell that for more than you bought it if you got it before covid
supple bane
because its in my dads pc
and also my brother was planning on building a pc so i saved it for him
but he never did
:(
pale quartz
ever seen a game recommend TWO gpus?
it's because it supports SLI
developers don't typically list that on the recommended section but that's pretty neat they bothered to
supple bane
its because nvidia say they want you to have a dedicated gpu running PhysX as well as your gpu for rendering
they dont need to be in sli
or even the same gpu
opaque saddle
I used to run 2 GPU (not in sli) to render models in blender
Saved so much of my time with limited hardware
supple bane
do you think a 1060 would run on a dual molex -> 6 pin pcie power adapter ?
supple bane
because i dont have another dedicated pcie power cable on my psu :(
opaque saddle
My friend used to run it through molex and almost burn down his house...
And the desktop itself did catch on fire
pale quartz
ah yes physx the failed meme
supple bane
alright maybe i wont then
supple bane
i heard its a solid case
have you looked at corsairs new cases?

Very expensive
pale quartz
Opinions????
for the specs? actually not half bad
a ripoff for the 5600x, but it's Australia so ripoff is basically a surname
toxic wigeon
Everythings expensive here
Is there anything you would go for? I get you'd go for a 5900x
pale quartz
Is there anything you would go for? I get you'd go for a 5900x
5900x is just for longevity imo 5800x works too
toxic wigeon
Fair enough!
pale quartz
once you approach 5800x and above there's a slight argument for diminishing returns both solid picks

in terms of which difference? sound, performance?
toxic wigeon
Performance
pale quartz
generally very, negligible
toxic wigeon
Ahhhh Minuet
pale quartz
Nvidias cards are mostly all highly binned you'll be hard pressed to find a noticeable difference
toxic wigeon
Ye
pale quartz
in terms of acoustics the MSI ventus will be quieter iirc, but if you're not concerned by that it's a non factor
toxic wigeon
Yeah the 3080 that is there serves to just there to show "hey 3080 will go into this*
pale quartz
yeah because companies need to market their cards to try and show a "difference" you'll find all these bs terms that try to implicate performance, for Nvidia specifically they all perform basically the same
some have custom PCBs and the like that help with voltage regulation, but for end users, it like, doesn't matter
pale quartz
there did used to be a time where there was big differences in the cards from manufacturers but that 90% went away with turing
toxic wigeon
Turing?
pale quartz
yeah Nvidia have strange names for their architectures pretty much
the same can't be said for the AMD side however, it is possible to get some serious differences in performance for 6000 series cards depending on the manufacturer due to how high it can clock
which is generally more expensive = better
toxic wigeon
Ye

Has EA stated anything about the specs are they still maintain their position about the ryzen 5 3600 being the minimum cpu ?

are they not really the best of wheels ?
proud trellis
i have seen a few youtubers use it but i was just seeing if anyone here has any experience with it
it does look a bit cheap quality yeah
supple bane
The pedals look so cheap, i doubt its got force feedback, the wheel is at a strange angle which would be unusable if you wanted to play a racing game. It has no flappy padles never mind a H shifter.
proud trellis
yeah im just gonna save for the G29, rather just buy it to be safe instead of wasting money/time on that saitek wheel
i used to have a G29 when i played on PS4 but i sold it when i was saving for a PC
supple bane
It might be great for ets, but believe me you dont want to buy an entire wheel just for ets
You will want to play racing games too
proud trellis
yup

And for that it would be hopeless

I could get the new forza game if I wanted to, if I get a G29

I wouldn’t recommend air cooler. Possibly water cooler would be better. I used to live in the tropics and my room temp could reach 39C in summer. So, if I play games at that time in midday and either the CPU or GPU would more likely be thermal throttled, before increasing the room temp further to 43-45C+

Thanks, I'm going for Asus rog lc 240

There is no other solution to decrease room temp unless you switch on aircon. No worries
royal zinc
Any good liquid coolers u can suggest 240
opaque saddle
I don’t unfortunately coz I don’t have an water cooler, since I moved to somewhere further south for a cooler climate
royal zinc
Nice
toxic wigeon
Try a noctua fan
opaque saddle
But, in my recommendation, it is better to swap the air coolers to water
toxic wigeon
Heard those a good
opaque saddle
Nah Bodie… it won’t work
opaque saddle
Trust Me. My room temp used to be at that range
toxic wigeon
I can just stick a box fan and cool down
opaque saddle
31-32C at night without AC, 34-35C without AC during midday
Sometimes 37-39C without my PC on. If I do, it will go beyond 40C+
plucky token
Faaaaaaans
supple bane
Read the convo
Oh. I did. I just mis read some things
opaque saddle
Coz if he switch on his PC, his PC parts will more likely reach 70-80C+ by default
If he does gaming during day time
plucky token
Any good liquid coolers u can suggest 240
Corsair 240mm are good. Or nzxt kraken
opaque saddle
Oh. I did. I just mis read some things
Don’t worry. Water cooler won’t fix everything but at least the pc will be cooler to run, and increase the longevity
toxic wigeon
Faaaans
opaque saddle
Since the pc fan intake would be mixed of hot ambient air and recycled exhausted hot air
opaque saddle
Faaaans
You should try to play games at 45C temp outdoor with a camping bag
Then you will know fans won’t work at all
opaque saddle
I believed the gaming PC will generate much more heat than that…
toxic wigeon
They do go up to 60c

No… I mean indoor temp

Its the same just with an asus rog logo on it which makes it so expensive.
I had several xorsair ones and they did realy well

The only things you need to care are “the pump wouldn’t be likely to stop working or it leaks” and the efficiency of the cooler

royal zinc
Stock cooler?
Yeah the wraith one
plucky token
60c with the the wraith is kinda hot...

The problem is that, the room is so hot and it heats up the cpu
plucky token
Is it properly mounted?
opaque saddle
You don’t understand…
royal zinc
I hope liquid cooler does make a difference in my small room
opaque saddle
Coz it has a much higher ambient temp to start with
It is like, my MacBook will thermal throttle if I play BF1 higher than 28-29C
So it runs well, with extra 10-20 fps at 25C, with aircon on
plucky token
The moment i play, my room temp gets hot as close to 38c
royal zinc
The moment i play, my room temp gets hot as close to 38c
Same
plucky token
I dont have the ambient, but that changes ver quickly
opaque saddle
Lol, that’s similar to my room temp without AC or pc on
plucky token
In summer time.. dont even ask
toxic wigeon
Too expensive to leave on all the time
plucky token
I dont need that
opaque saddle
Actually… it isn’t costly to leave it on all the time
plucky token
Either i can withstand the heat, or i dont play
opaque saddle
It only be costly If you switch on and off frequently
opaque saddle
You know the climate The city I live in is warmer than your area, but we don’t get the extreme high like you always do
We just don’t get the 30C increase or decrease in half a day during the heatwaves
plucky token
I get stormwaves instead of heatwaves 
opaque saddle
So if the temp reached 25, this fan will be switch on automatically
opaque saddle
Well… I have like 11 smart plug switches in Apple Home

they can optimize performance from beta to full release but don't expect significant fps increase since it's near release and they want to provide gameplay close to full release

They are 249.99

@proud trellis G923 is the latest one. If you can find any G29 or G920 on sale that would be great

The G923 is an awesome wheel

i have a g29 with the shifter add on

i never really liked sim racing...

So… $156 EURO
supple bane
i love using the shifter just as much as the wheel it self tbh
prime jasper
the only thing close is my xbox 360 wheel + shifter
shy wing
i love using the shifter just as much as the wheel it self tbh
Yeah, its a great experience
supple bane
in general the reviews werent great. and sure its a bit small but it adds so much more depth to the game
opaque saddle
I will always go for the newer tech tho
Coz sometimes the games won’t even support the wheels
supple bane
playing dirt rally 2.0 in vr with a g29 and a shifter in manual is amazing
opaque saddle
I mean, the buttons won’t show up
I’m waiting for the G923 to be in stock, for $350AUD
supple bane
my cheap wheel didnt get detected in games. it just showed up as an xbox 360 controller. so it required some remmaping but i never found a game it doesnt work with
supple bane
its more down to the game than the wheel tho
opaque saddle
I mean… some games won’t detect the wheels at all, I don’t like doing manual adjustments since their usual price are similar
I remember they have those on sale for $290 but ran out of stock very quickly, dropped down to $250 and sold out immediately across aus
supple bane
its more down to the game than the wheel tho
the reason i say this is because i have a g29 and that is easily the most popular wheel atm. but yet still some games just dont utilise or dont even have key bindings by default for it
opaque saddle
I can get a older model for $499 or the newer model for $350
supple bane
Dirt rally 2.0 has bindings which are fine. but ETS has nothing
hence why i say it depends on the game rather than the wheel
opaque saddle
ETS 2 is always a painful to work with
opaque saddle
I think they have fixed it in G923

same as MSFS2020. thats a nightmare

whats your budget/whats your target framerate/whats your target resolution/anything particular that you want? (lots of ram/storage/rgb/small form factor)
note that rn gpu cost double their msrp so i either recommend getting a good prebuilt or buying a pc without a graphics card but with a good cpu with intergrated graphics so that you can have a decent experience in medium-requirement games to wait out the shortage

That's not real value though, it's hystery and inflation, and it's typically for new components.
Anything currently selling in this market is the exception, not the rule.
prime jasper
pc part picker gets their prices from amazon and new egg for yes new components and when you resell you sell for less then listed new like when i built my pc brand new i paid 1300 because parts were cheaper with inflation parts are worth more so back then i would sell my sell pc for 1k but because parts prices go up i can charge more and still be under "new prices" and selling it for more then what i paid hence inflations
and people will pay my price still because its cheaper then new and they dont know what i paid
molten bramble
Without punctuation, not sure what much of you just typed says to be honest. In the end, your stuff isn't really worth what you think it is at the moment. You might catch lucky sells to unlucky consumers, but the market will correct this mess at some point.
So if you think you can get a sell off, probably best to do it now.
prime jasper
ok So because of inflation, I can sell my pc rn for upwards to 3k used because market went up. versus pre pandemic when i built it i could only sell it for 1k. meaning with market being up rn i built mine for 1.3k and can sell it for 2.5 and get more then what i paid to build it. All because of inflation which makes my pc worth more
molten bramble
It's not worth more though, it's just response to an inflated rate. Inflation =/= value; it is an indication of the movement. And market value versus customer value versus commercial value, etc. are all different things. The worth of the component is actually less than when you paid for it, but because of market response to supply/demand, the price can increase accordingly. So while you might garner a higher price in the market on a sale, it does not mean that component was worth more than it actually is (essentially, the consumer bought it at a loss).
Anyways, that's getting into economics and whatnot. I get what you're saying, but just want to convey the lack of correlation in the terms used.

Tbf Microsoft doesn't do anything that'd actually impact your workflow if you simply don't activate it. And let's be clear, I don't endorse piracy or using not legitimate keys, it's just that the only downsides of using inactivated Windows (10 at least) is lack of customization options and that half-transparent watermark you can easily disable.

you're not actually correct, certain features within windows will cease functioning entirely, it can and will hinder your workflow if you're dependent at all on some mild tools that it offers
modern patio
Oh, that's new. I wasn't aware of that. What particular features do you have in mind?
pale quartz
they are admittedly specialist tools, specifically related to things such as VM's and other dependencies, hence the average user will not come across it
generally enterprise/pro related tools, people on home will never see them, put it that way
modern patio
Hmmm, then I think my point stands still. Unless other circumstances which would require use of these specialized features occur, it's pretty difficult to justify buying a Windows license. And those are probably mostly used by companies/public authorities anyway, and they will almost always buy those keys in bulk for lower prices.
pale quartz
companies and organisations generally buy them from Microsoft directly not because of a discount but because it's required through windows TOS, those are the big targets Microsoft make a lot of money from, they only generally offer discounts for external tools such as office which come in a separate license

generally impacted tools are things such as hyper-v isolation and core, with things like RBS and CDA connections hence your average user is probably not even aware of the existence of these tools to begin with @modern patio
which is why they are not going to be impacted (probably)

it isn't in Microsoft's interest to totally lock out the user from the OS for not activating it, they get their money elsewhere from them using it

complicated equation between usage vs profit mainly, as much as MS would prefer every user buy a key they know that's not going to happen, the majority will which means there isn't really a need to force every user to
winrar is a similar example, actually kind of identical

Nice! The manufacturer I use already has this functionality, but nice to see Razer come out with a universal solution.

Yes they do that lots sell some idea to other companies so they are not making all the mistakes with new hardware share the blame. Make money then sell your own version.

I think their main goal with Windows might be to gain the biggest userbase possible and then take advantage from providing services such as Office or OneDrive, and that may be more profitable for them than forcing everyone to buy Windows key. I mean, they allowed free upgrade to W10 for a really long time, possibly it's even still possible to convert your W8 key to W10 somehow.

that's not required windows already has the biggest userbase possible, Microsoft have for over a decade at this point, free upgrades are still possible as windows 8 was seen as a massive failure which is why Microsoft would prefer it never existed, the aero design language was received poorly and why they want people to move on, mainly
in regards to office and OneDrive, OneDrive serves 2 functions, one as a cloud provider and second as a integration for windows itself, by Microsoft tying in OneDrive into windows itself it means people are forced to use it to some degree to synchronise settings, keys, whatever, and thus become used to it as an idea for perhaps paying for it separately
office is slightly different in that it's ubiquity > profit, which is why office 365 is integrated into education, corporate environments and what not to promote daily users to take out their own subscriptions as it's seen as reliable

Is there an advantage to that board vs. a RaspberryPi?

Well it used more natural resources and has room to sell items that run hotter.

It is cpu intensive. 2042 should be even more cpu intensive.
