#Fans
obsidian dune
Those are the fans that came with this thermal right cooler
The six Cooler Master fans that are attached to the radiator were one of the parts that was reused from the previous system that has been upgraded to this point
So because I didn't want to mismatch fans I decided to do it this way
I think it looks Overkill but pretty cool in my opinion anyway
obsidian dune
Looks badass
Thanks I'm happy with it
It was actually pretty inexpensive parts-wise except for the processor
And the graphics card that he saved from a previous build
gusty nacelle
Thermalright frozen infinity @amber chasm
Actual fans are tl-m12
I got them too, theyre cool asf, I like their discrete look
No rgb in fan blades is my go to
hoary musk
What are the specs?
obsidian dune
Thermalright frozen infinity <@519570884416241664>
Yeah I like them :)
hoary musk
Looks pretty neato
obsidian dune
What are the specs?
9800X3D
32GB ddr5 6400
RTX 4090
gusty nacelle
Yeah that wide ass gpu I knewnit was a 4090 😭
hoary musk
10/10 for aesthetics.
obsidian dune
Yeah. The 4090 was saved from his previous build
hoary musk
Very good build.
obsidian dune
Along with the case and the CoolerMaster fans
obsidian dune
Very well
hoary musk
I'm using a 3080Ti 😭
obsidian dune
Yeah that wide ass gpu I knewnit was a 4090 😭
Haha yeah. That's the smallest 4090 though
obsidian dune
I'm using a 3080Ti 😭
Solid card
obsidian dune
Indeed
gusty nacelle
Still holds up in 1440p gaming
obsidian dune
Make sure you get the new LGA1851 update for your CPU
gusty nacelle
Still good to this day
obsidian dune
I believe it's called the Intel S200 update
Boosts the performance of your platform a lot
200S
My bad
hoary musk
Oh cool! Thanks!!!
obsidian dune
You're welcome :)
gusty nacelle
intel ultra is a solid cpu despite all the stuff that is wrong with it
No need to upgrade lol
obsidian dune
intel ultra is a solid cpu despite all the stuff that is wrong with it
Yeah bad value isn't the same as bad performance
hoary musk
Here's my PC.
obsidian dune
Plus CPU bottlenecking is a lot less common and a lot easier to deal with than GPU bottlenecking
gusty nacelle
Here's my PC.
damnn
hoary musk
It cost me £1299 ♥️
gusty nacelle
fire
hoary musk
Ikr ♥️
gusty nacelle
Plus CPU bottlenecking is a lot less common and a lot easier to deal with than G...
Less common and not a big deal
obsidian dune
Less common and not a big deal
Yep
gusty nacelle
cpu bottlenecking is annoying to deal with, I got a ryzen 5700x with a 5070
hoary musk
I'm happy with it, I upgraded from an i7 4790K/GTX 780Ti with 16GB DDR3 2400MHz.
obsidian dune
True but most games aren't CPU intensive their GPU intensive
hoary musk
Took me about a year to save up and build it.
obsidian dune
And you can always up the resolution
hoary musk
Bloody expensive to barter with pricings etc since most people ask too much for items.
gusty nacelle
And you can always up the resolution
I stay at 1440p 4k aint worth it
gusty nacelle
Ill probably cope a ryzen 9800x3d once this cpu runs out of fuel
hoary musk
I won't be upgrading for sometime, if not a few years until Nova Lake comes out.
gusty nacelle
I kinda dealt with the issues by overclocking, and its fine because that cpu is water cooled
obsidian dune
Ill probably cope a ryzen 9800x3d once this cpu runs out of fuel
5700x3D. I've tested that with a 4090 at 1440p and it doesn't CPU bottleneck
hoary musk
Yeah overclocking is difficult if you don't know what you're doing lol 😛
For beginners that is.
I tried OCing my 4790K with a broken CPU cooler with NO fans from 4GHz to 4.5GHz using the Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE
gusty nacelle
nah thats
hoary musk
Bloody nightmare LMAO, it just froze up and BSOD.
gusty nacelle
way too big of a diff
hoary musk
Yeah I know.
hoary musk
I didn't manage to get to 4.5GHz so it's stock at 4GHz
obsidian dune
outta my ryzen 5700x
Haswell OCs better
hoary musk
Yup you can get em to 5GHz if you're lucky.
ON A STABLE OVERCLOCK if you undervolt it.
PROPERLY.
I've never tried it myself, but I've seen people do it via benchmarks and it's quite impressive.
Issue was I was using a GTX 780Ti which has no more driver support.
So I was screwed.
obsidian dune
Performance is also good for it's age
gusty nacelle
Haswell OCs better
Ive got to try those some time
obsidian dune
Yep
hoary musk
Especially what you can do with it.
obsidian dune
6600 pairs nicely for 1080p gaming
hoary musk
I mean you can even pair it with a 2080Ti for example and get 1440p out of it.
hoary musk
6600 pairs nicely for 1080p gaming
Sure does!
obsidian dune
Yep
obsidian dune
It's really fun to pick up an office PC with one of those in it and throw 16 GB and a 3050 6 GB
And suddenly you can play Red Dead
And cyberpunk
hoary musk
Yup I plan to use my 4790k setup as a spare PC for my GF lol.
gusty nacelle
It's really fun to pick up an office PC with one of those in it and throw 16 GB ...
the 3050 gets real hate but its solid budget to play at medium
hoary musk
I don't know what if pair mine with. I had a 780Ti that died lol, it was the founders edition.
The 4060 also gets hate.
gusty nacelle
youre obviously not going to run cyberpunk in ultra with a 3050 at 60 fps without using dlss
but you get the point
hoary musk
Yeah for budget builds they're decent cards.
gusty nacelle
ive been able to run cyberpunk in an rtx 4050 max ray tracing path tracing off with dlss and frame generation
I got a laptop with a 4050 lol
gusty nacelle
Yeah for budget builds they're decent cards.
you can obviously get better price value off amd but people dont appreciate the power that nvidia gpus have for productivity
productivity is the reason why I still bought a 5070
despite its awful value, I got one for almost msrp
hoary musk
Oh I'm like oh yeah I'll splash £2000 on a setup to play games at like 1440p 60fps that'll just be shit in a few years with newer stuff coming out.
I'm not like that.
gusty nacelle
Like we're not made of money
thats one big deal, Ultra gaming is an unrealistic goal for someone whos just trying to start
hoary musk
True.
hoary musk
Yeah well I was in an accident a few years back so it paid for it.
I got compensation.
But other than that I was lucky to be alive lol
I'm sticking with Intel because most if not all my PC's have been Intel based.
hoary musk
thats one big deal, Ultra gaming is an unrealistic goal for someone whos just tr...
Indeed.
A PS5 Pro basically is a PC because it uses AMD Components.
gusty nacelle
I'm sticking with Intel because most if not all my PC's have been Intel based.
If you feel comfortable with intel no reason to switch, I really think its down to everyone's preference and the price value their looking for
hoary musk
Yeah exactly.
gusty nacelle
people shit on me for buying a 5070 but like idrc I paid for it myself and I knew there was better options but I still went for it for my own reasons
gusty nacelle
A PS5 Pro basically is a PC because it uses AMD Components.
Basically is but consoles get away with worse hardware due to heavy optimizations
hoary musk
Just a PS5 is known for 2 things, compactibility and couch based stuff with family.
gusty nacelle
pcs dont, like you gotta see how ridicolous it is to run a game at ultra settings on a pc (it obviously looks better than a console, but consoles still look great)
hoary musk
Basically is but consoles get away with worse hardware due to heavy optimization...
That's WHY HDR is a thing 😭
4K HDR support.
Native 1080p
120hz
gusty nacelle
rescaled in 80% games
hoary musk
Yeah the downside of it all.
gusty nacelle
and probably running at medium high settings compared to pc version
hoary musk
Upscailing to 4K is nice.
Medium.
If not possibly High depending on the game.
But each to their own, whatever you like, don't fall for people's negativity and opinions, you get what you want, it's your decision not theirs, they're the one whos' buying it.
gusty nacelle
much clearer image at the exchange of post process being worse, even so dlss carries a lot and id never understand why people bitch about dlss so much when you see no difference at all
hoary musk
Console or PC whatever you want to use is down to your own personal preference.
gusty nacelle
surely, DLSS brings optimization problems and people lazying out on them
hoary musk
Fun fact consoles allow keyboard and mouse support.
gusty nacelle
but it gives old gpus extra life
hoary musk
True.
gusty nacelle
Fun fact consoles allow keyboard and mouse support.
Yea I used to play with keyboard on my xbox one
I graduated to pc with an IGPU and built it up from there
hoary musk
If not the majority of AAA titles allow keyboard and mouse support, so you wouldn't even need a PC.
gusty nacelle
that ryzen 3600g carried me hard bro
😭
rest in peace my brother has that cpu now
hoary musk
Yeah same, I had a PS5 for a few months bought it for around £310 when it was on sale, and then gave it to my brother.
I used keyboard and mouse on it.
I also use an xbox one s and I use it for couch co-op or youtube downtime when im bored.
It's an alright CPU but meh it hits hard.
gusty nacelle
I stream my pc on the couch when I wanna co-op 
hoary musk
Nice
gusty nacelle
I also use an xbox one s and I use it for couch co-op or youtube downtime when i...
solid ass console, it really still holds up to this day
theres no new interesting games to play a lately anyway
hoary musk
I have younger brothers who use my XBOX account and again it is a pain in the ass when I wanted to play the oblivion remake lol kicked me off it soon as I created my character xD
True I mean there's always L4D2 if you wanna revisit nostaligia.
I own it on disc and I play it sometimes, it lags to shit but eh I have fun.
It's 4:52am and I've not slept LOL
gusty nacelle
💀
hoary musk
I've not done an all
nighter in a while.
LMAO
Eh I haven't got anything to do lol I might sleep in about 10 mins if not 5.
I'll have to see but yeah again fr the 3600g was a goated CPU for it's time.
gusty nacelle
Thats the cpu my parents bought during the shortage and I remember being crazy cus I could play roblox at max at 60 fps and Minecraft with light shaders
Mid 2021
hoary musk
Nice!
Minecraft is a bitch to run.
I swear 😭😭😭 mods
Mods are the death of me when it comes to Minecraft.
gusty nacelle
Install a modpack to get a 5 min loading screen time and get your ram all eaten up
hoary musk
Ikr 😭😭😭
hoary musk
Ikr 😭😭😭
obsidian dune
Haha wow you guys are popping off
hoary musk
Yup I'm gonna get it now goodnight ill speak later today if I'm on sleep well 😊
obsidian dune
Night!
acoustic quail
Np man I did my first pc last night it was a great time and it worked first try and I'm very pumped to use it once I get a monitor

Thank you, imo they look better than lian li fans
obsidian dune
Thank you, imo they look better than lian li fans
I agree
The bigger deal for me though is the liquid cooler itself
The Galahad pump block is kind of boring in my opinion
It doesn't match any of their fans
But this pump Block matches the aesthetic of their fans pretty much perfectly
amber chasm
The bigger deal for me though is the liquid cooler itself
i think it looks like a double mcwrap
obsidian dune
i think it looks like a double mcwrap
Yeah I kind of love it
