CPU-Ryzen 5 5600x
MOBO-B450m-a II
GPU - RX 6650XT
16gb DDR4 RAM

[glacial thistle]

amazing build, hope you will enjoy it!

Mind me asking, why did you get the X version of 5600?

[bronze girder]

Because I saw that it performed better

[glacial thistle]

well, it does perform better, by 2%

auto oc from amds drivers makes up this diffrence

@bronze girder I#m new to PC building too and I'm curious what the difficulties were. Why did it take you 7 hours instead of ~1h?🤔

The amount of pure joy in that video made its way to me

[bronze girder]

There is a whole host of reasons (about 30)
But the most annoying ones are
There are so many Vapor’s that you have to look up and find where to put

I installed a new PSU but it didn’t have PCI-e for my GPU so I had to use a different one

The IO shield would not go in

Handiling the motherboard really carefully (especially during installation)

I had to take out a dvd thing so my GPU would fit

I had to re mount the fans

Some of the cables weren’t long enough

And many many more

[glacial thistle]

Weird to hear that some cables were lacking/too short, the case doesn't look that big so I would imagine they should be alright, unless the case is absolutely terrible for cable management

Also really weird the PSU didn't got cables for that GPU.

Thanks for answering!

What do you mean by Vapor's?

I hope my build goes well, I'll buy the new ATX 3.0 PSU for my 4090 and my motherboard has already a I/O shield pre-installed. I really hope my motherboard also fits in the case, especially with a big tower cooler and GPU🫠 I looked up how much space my CPU cooler has left and whether the RAM is not in the way. And in paper I should have exactly 1mm of space left😅

Here's my build if you're curious 🙂

Wires
idk why it autocorrected

[sage verge]

ah, I see

[graceful shard]

that Spinpoint being used as a boot disk?

[lone grove]

what parts recommendations ? this ?

bad MB, bad gpu model (brand sucks), no info on the ram, psu looks bad and case with no airflow
