airflow

[novel blaze]

Why are your bottom fans exhaust fans?

[glass moat]

The fans are for show

Cpu and GPU are water cooled

[novel blaze]

But where are your intake fans? Makes no sense...

[glass moat]

Nowhere

There are none

Don't use them

[novel blaze]

But how should this work then

[glass moat]

I don't need airflow?

Wdym

[novel blaze]

What do you think how a radiator is working?

[glass moat]

Expelling air

Hot air

[novel blaze]

You need also air coming in your case

[glass moat]

That can all be done passively

[novel blaze]

Your will get a lot of dust and pretty shit cooling performance

Really dude makes no sense

[glass moat]

Well performance wise, both gpu and cpu max around 59c and 85c on a heavy oc in p95 and superposition

Naw, it looks great

[novel blaze]

It's total bs

[glass moat]

Nope

Works great, looks great

[novel blaze]

I was just trying to help...

[glass moat]

Hey I appreciate that, but I didn't ask and none was needed

Ive tried both configs, and this looks the best

With reasonable temperatures, which is all I'm looking for

[clever verge]

lol so much effort into looks that you sacrifice a common sense airflow configuration, but there's still a mess of zip ties and dangling wires around the socket

[glass moat]

Well yeah, it's not like that anymore

That was when it actually was not functional, my motherboard died

It was in a chaotic state then

Here is a more recent image

[main vigil]

lmao this thing has only negative pressure say hi to chipset overheating

[glass moat]

doesnt happen

thats why I opted for a board with a chipset heatsink instead of just a fan

temps during p95

small ftts

[buoyant carbon]

@glass moat you still need intake fans for water cooler with an aio …..

[glass moat]

dont need, could use maybe if I wanted better temps

but I dont really, rather keep it the way it is

@buoyant carbon

any more complaints?

[flint wind]

oof that gpu sag

[glass moat]

its a heavy gpu

[buoyant carbon]

That shit burning

[glass moat]

burning?

wdym

[buoyant carbon]

83

[glass moat]

yeah, thats with +200 over pbo

also, im not sure if you know, but 83c is completely safe

[buoyant carbon]

I ain’t look at all of it yet

You do you bro but when it’s burns out don’t be mad

💀

[glass moat]

on 83c?

lol aight

I should point out that it normally maxes around 60c-63c depending on how saturated the radiator is

the screenshots above are literally a max non-manual (nothing outside of pbo settings) oc oneshot test

[buoyant carbon]

How much FPS do you get?

[glass moat]

why does that matter

[turbid willow]

83c is fine

but yes, you should flip either the side fans or the bottom fans depending on your preference

[main vigil]

those temp are way too high for that cooling setup

[flint wind]

yeah but just get a bracket it looks messy

they are cheap

https://www.amazon.com/upHere-Graphics-Anodized-Aerospace-Aluminum/dp/B076GYL25H/ref=asc_df_B076GYL25H/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=312824707815&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=7259487086120605367&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9004518&hvtargid=pla-562571101390&th=1

you can do whatever you want though

[turbid willow]

^^^

for 120 watts that is very high

[glass moat]

does that matter though?

it hit 83c under conditions I will not be using daily on a benchmarking software

[glass moat]

yeah, my preference is how they are right now

[glass moat]

it looks fine to me, when I do happen to look at it, which believe it or not is not very frequently. It is not really near my monitor

[buoyant carbon]

@glass moat your saying does it matter tho and we are legit telling you it does

No matter the system there has to be some sort of push and pull with air no matter water cooled or not

Look at all the water cooled systems on YouTube they still have intake and outtake configuration

[glass moat]

Sorta, passive airflow is working great for me right now

@buoyant carbon

[buoyant carbon]

In the long ruin it won’t

[glass moat]

Besides more dust, why so?

[civic hemlock]

I get better temps at same frequency with a 12 core cooled by a 240mil aio. Looks aint everything chief. If you want the Lian Li 011 to be garbage, thats all you.

I should mention that those temp above are at full load, maing about 71c

[glass moat]

oh yeah full load im at 60c~ on most programs

just p95 is a pretty hard

@civic hemlock

[main vigil]

yes it was only on 120 watts that means ur cpu is holding back to not kill itself on the long time

[glass moat]

its a 65w cpu

[civic hemlock]

How the fudge are you at 60c under full load with that ass airflow setup.

?

[main vigil]

is it a intel i3 laptop

[glass moat]

its a 5600X

[main vigil]

that not 65 watt

[glass moat]

it is lol

thats the default tpd

[civic hemlock]

I thought it was a 95w tdp chip

[glass moat]

nope

[glass moat]

I can prove it, once my shift is over

ill run the benchmark of your choice

[main vigil]

it consumes 93 watts

[civic hemlock]

I dont care, just you spent so much on cooling to have it be wasted with ass airflow

[main vigil]

thats default tdp not power consumption

[glass moat]

I got for $105 off HWS

h150i

[civic hemlock]

https://tenor.com/view/brooklyn-nine-nine-test-results-dumb-dumbass-you-are-so-stupid-gif-14192289

[glass moat]

yeah ik, thats what I said

its a 65w cpu

[main vigil]

[main vigil]

thats tdp not actual wattage

[glass moat]

but of course it can draw more

[glass moat]

no shit lol

[main vigil]

[civic hemlock]

Like bruh, look at my setup, see what good airflowlooks like

[main vigil]

you are a funny man

[civic hemlock]

3 intake, three exhaust

[glass moat]

I see one fan

oh wait 2 on top

cool, dont need em

[glass moat]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/XrxDPV

oh btw here is my part list

[main vigil]

Son this is airflow

[glass moat]

dont need it

🤷

[main vigil]

Didn’t ask

[glass moat]

well you showed me something

or at least tried too

[main vigil]

R.I.P. mobo vrms

[glass moat]

they are doing just fine

thanks for your concern though

[main vigil]

like thats ever gonna happen

[glass moat]

oh wait that mobo isnt up to date, its now a b550 tuf gaming

[glass moat]

I mean I already gave you proof

[main vigil]

where

[glass moat]

#901104281283874918 message

yeah the vrm temps arent on there, but the motherboard is doing great in such a demanding workload

thats one of the reasons why I decided to swap my x570 for the b550 model, for the bigger heat sinks and also for the bios flashback button

[main vigil]

https://tenor.com/view/building-your-own-pc-pc-building-silly-funny-gif-17787191

[glass moat]

gif fail

[main vigil]

im dying lmao

[glass moat]

dont die please

we need somebody to be the haters

[main vigil]

who says im hating

[glass moat]

sorry

I guess you didint exactly say that

[main vigil]

look bro if you want to do you but this looks like its made by a child who only cares about asthetics

[glass moat]

I do only care about looks though

thats why I spent about 1k on rgb

[main vigil]

i mean we are all trying to help you but you are trowing helpfull advice

[glass moat]

I never asked for help...

[main vigil]

might as wel just bought a lamp instead of a pc

[glass moat]

I didnt post in #pc-assembly-help, I posted in #build-showcase

[glass moat]

well they are not the same thing

[main vigil]

thats how the world works sometimes that stuff just happens when people are concered

[main vigil]

you said you only care about looks

[glass moat]

I understand that, which is why I am entertaining you right now

as to not be rude

[main vigil]

?

[glass moat]

?

[glass moat]

what about it? can a lamp run Maya?

[main vigil]

rgb

[glass moat]

yes, a computer with rgb

not a lamp with rgb

[main vigil]

mine has no rgb

[glass moat]

wicked

[main vigil]

only R

no GB

no unicorn puke

[glass moat]

Ok?

Thats personal taste

[main vigil]

i mean ur pc does look nice it just needs some cable management

[glass moat]

thanks, here is what it actually looks like in action

[main vigil]

looks good but keyboawrds look hideos imo

[blazing depot]

0 airflow, bye bye components

[glass moat]

@main vigil it's a k95

@blazing depot as shown, that is not the case

[blazing depot]

the o11d was already bad

just made it even worse

[glass moat]

Well It comes with no fans, as most high end cases dont

But no, it's working great

[blazing depot]

the thing is not that it comes with fans, its that in a standart situation with 3 intakes and 2 exhausts that case is fucking horrible

my case even beats it in terms of thermals

and to put all exhaust fans leaving your components dry with no air? thats a crime you should be arrested

[glass moat]

Ah yes, dry, like components should be wet

[blazing depot]

and yes, aio's still need airflow

[glass moat]

Do you know what you are talking about?

[blazing depot]

yeah

[glass moat]

I don't think you do

[blazing depot]

i know pretty damn well

[civic hemlock]

Guy looks like he knows, he sounds like he knows

[blazing depot]

this is what airflow should look like

[glass moat]

Cool, don't need it

[blazing depot]

this is also airflow

[blazing depot]

then say bye-bye to your thermals

[civic hemlock]

Or if you like rgb and airflow

[glass moat]

My thermals are great, thanks for asking

[blazing depot]

my thermals are better with a higher tdp and an intel stock cooler

and no, your thermals arent great

[glass moat]

Gpu max temp is 60c in superposition 1080p

[blazing depot]

they are dogshit

[glass moat]

Cpu around 63c

[blazing depot]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/507442268236414976.png?size=48

[glass moat]

I can prove it

My shift ends in a little over an hour

[civic hemlock]

Thats horrible for that fact that you have an aio strapped to your gpu

[blazing depot]

smh

[civic hemlock]

And an h150i

[blazing depot]

84c

[glass moat]

Read some context, then come back

[blazing depot]

an h150i is bad. Exhaust? even worse

[civic hemlock]

[glass moat]

Say worse all you want, doesn't change how excellent it performs

[blazing depot]

excellent? ight lmao

[glass moat]

Yeah

[main vigil]

fun fact noctua roasts people in their youtube comments

[glass moat]

Cool

[main vigil]

on the thermal paste one

about the treathripper

[glass moat]

Gpu came with a 240mm aio preinstalled

[blazing depot]

if you tried to actually have a brain, you would have intake fans

[glass moat]

If you had any brains or bothered to read any context, you would know why I did not opt to do that

[civic hemlock]

No shit, you think i stupid

?

[glass moat]

Yeah, kinda

[blazing depot]

also a positive offset on pbo is not considered overclocking lmao

[main vigil]

this person is giving me brain die

[civic hemlock]

Damm, you must be a 4 year old

[blazing depot]

same

[civic hemlock]

[main vigil]

[glass moat]

That's correct, your point? I specifically said this was done with pbo, not oc

+200 iirc

[blazing depot]

yeah positive offset on pbo just makes voltage higher and higher temps, if the cpu throttles=less speed

[main vigil]

85c is still not good on a cpu with a 65wtdp on a aio

[blazing depot]

negative offset=less voltage=less heat=higher oc headroom

[glass moat]

83c is great on a low airflow build with a max pho boost and on p95 small ftts

[blazing depot]

im getting 62c on an intel stock cooler with an 85w tdp

get good

[main vigil]

Bro its a 240 aio its not supposed to be that high

[glass moat]

@blazing depot max power consumption was 126w

[blazing depot]

still bad

[main vigil]

skill issue

[blazing depot]

yeah, issue between the keyboard and the chair

[main vigil]

yeah

[blazing depot]

and im doing that with only 4 fans

skill issue

[glass moat]

im doing that with 0 fans

none of the fans actually do anything yall know right

thats not why I got them

[blazing depot]

this is what you've been missing out on

good temps

[main vigil]

omfg

[glass moat]

temps are good though

not sure what makes you think they arent

[blazing depot]

no they arent

[glass moat]

but they are

lol

[blazing depot]

no they arent

[glass moat]

deny it all you want

[blazing depot]

try posting that in overclocking, a channel that i frequent

they will tell you that your temps are dog-shit

[glass moat]

ooo scary

yeah, if I only posted that with no context

im sure I would get flamed

[blazing depot]

i think everybody knows that a 360mm aio with a 5600x should keep it atleast below 70c

[glass moat]

yeah in normal builds

[blazing depot]

75c if bad thermal paste application or bad airflow

[glass moat]

but the fact that it hurts nothing at 83c doesnt change

[blazing depot]

i actually do think something is wrong with your brain

well if you say so, your chipset temps are still bad

leaving no oc headroom

and thats bad

[glass moat]

its in 40c

if you think thats bad, I have bad news for you

40c~ in a demanding workload with little airflow mind that

[blazing depot]

what do you call demanding

[glass moat]

its great

[blazing depot]

cinebench?

[glass moat]

p95 small fft

try and find something harder

i dare you

[blazing depot]

occt

ever heard of it?

[glass moat]

ooo, nope

yeah lol

[blazing depot]

try occt and come back

[glass moat]

sure

leave my shift in a hour

on my laptop rn

inb4 "bu-t-t-t his fans are not placed correctly, you cant do that !1!1! "

[main vigil]

bro im getting 60c after an hour on a noctua air coorel on a to thje limit overclocked 2600x

spelt it like coorel on purpose

[strong pulsar]

That’s some bad temps

My guy

Also why are bottom exhaust?

[glass moat]

no, its really not in my case

holy cow

[glass moat]

read the context, come back

[strong pulsar]

Eh I rather not scroll 200 pages

[glass moat]

yeah, they dont bother giving your opinion

[strong pulsar]

You’re in airflow channel

[glass moat]

oh really?

[strong pulsar]

I see bad temps and exhaust bottom fans

I comment

[glass moat]

yup

you saw wrong

[strong pulsar]

That’s my context

[glass moat]

move along

[strong pulsar]

Hopefully Corsair didn’t take everything

👍😄

Oh my god

Explains it

Bai

[glass moat]

goodbye 👋

[blazing depot]

corsair shill

[glass moat]

yes, I am

got a problem?

[blazing depot]

yea

[glass moat]

whats your problem?

[strong pulsar]

I think you are feeling the problem

[blazing depot]

corsair is overpriced and not that good

[glass moat]

yeah, its not

your point is?

[blazing depot]

cases? good cases they got

my point is corsair is overpriced

[glass moat]

they have good psus and some cases

yeah, its overpriced

[strong pulsar]

Put their name on other brands products and finesses folks, sheesh

Gj corsair ceo

[glass moat]

I knew what I was buying though

[blazing depot]

but you got the wrong execution in mind

atleast you tried, i've seen worse attempts

[glass moat]

what do you think is my goal?

[blazing depot]

to have bad temps

[glass moat]

very funny

[strong pulsar]

probably lights

but i see none

[glass moat]

lights?

do you mean rgb?

[strong pulsar]

ye

[glass moat]

well, I have plenty of rgb

[blazing depot]

rgb=/=performance

[glass moat]

yup

[blazing depot]

and for that money, you could've gotten more performance

[strong pulsar]

when you sit and look at pc instead of using it

[glass moat]

actually, not much more performance

[main vigil]

[blazing depot]

noctua

[glass moat]

I built this before 3000 and 5000 series

[blazing depot]

arctic

[main vigil]

like me

[blazing depot]

scythe

[main vigil]

noctua is my favorite brand

since i love beige

[blazing depot]

that i respect

[glass moat]

nocuta is growing on my slightly, with their new 3070

[main vigil]

im getting it for my build

[glass moat]

but they dont have any rgb

so nope

[main vigil]

thats why the yare good

[glass moat]

yeah I could replace their fans or smth

but id rather not

[blazing depot]

ah yes ofcourse rgb is 100% needed to have performance

you'll die without rgb

come on man

[glass moat]

well, rgb and looks are my goal

[blazing depot]

time to use the pc instead of looking at it

[glass moat]

I mean I use it

[blazing depot]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/591394183122518017.png?size=48

[strong pulsar]

gpu is water cooled?

i dont see that

[glass moat]

yes

cool, it is

[strong pulsar]

i think u forgot to update the picture

[glass moat]

nope

its easily visible if you know what to look for

in the og image

[strong pulsar]

first pc or something, looking for reasons to explain this `?

[glass moat]

this is my 3rd

[blazing depot]

looks like your first

[glass moat]

its not

[blazing depot]

without previous knowledge

[glass moat]

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CyborgKnightmare/saved/#view=dT2ZJx

[blazing depot]

but it looks

[glass moat]

here is my og build

[blazing depot]

and what point are you trying to prove?

[glass moat]

nothing, you guys started this thread to complain

im just defending my build

[strong pulsar]

you shared a photo of your pc with hopes of gaining something from it, here we are trying to let you gain something from it

[glass moat]

I wanted to show it off, yeah

[blazing depot]

you're trying so hard to defend a bad build

[glass moat]

like everyone else who posts in there

[glass moat]

its not bad, its good

[strong pulsar]

I think it's fair to for a bit of critisism with the intent of helping

[glass moat]

well for the third time, I never asked for help

[strong pulsar]

ok so

let me sum this up

[glass moat]

you guys decided that I needed it, which I dont

[strong pulsar]

you posted a pic of your pc in hopes of milking complements cause you're not sure about it yourself?

[glass moat]

no

thats the opposite of what happened

[strong pulsar]

what was the reason behind sharing it

[glass moat]

are you blind????

[blazing depot]

dont change the topic

[glass moat]

#901104281283874918 message

[blazing depot]

[glass moat]

its right here

[strong pulsar]

everyone has their reasons yes

confirmation

[glass moat]

I said it not a minute ago

like 30 seconds ago

[strong pulsar]

to wanting feedback

[blazing depot]

that was a minute ago

actually 2 minutes ago

[glass moat]

it was an exaggeration

[strong pulsar]

typically what happens is, they spend a bunch of time and money on something and want confirmation so they post it in hopes of milking complements

[glass moat]

thats not the case, I aleady get plenty of that from dorm members

[strong pulsar]

so what is your reason? everyone has a reason

[blazing depot]

i spent 40 euro and i have better thermals, while this dude spent hundreds of euros on something that has worse thermals

[glass moat]

already answered

[strong pulsar]

you said cause you wanted to like everyone else

i cant ask everyone else why

i can ask you why

[glass moat]

you are not making any sense right now, ive stated what my reason was for posting it

gatekeep harder

[strong pulsar]

you got pressured into it because of others posting? is that the conclusion I am getting?

[glass moat]

nope

[strong pulsar]

as you can tell, you are not making much sense

[glass moat]

cool

[blazing depot]

very high usage yes

[glass moat]

my steam account?

I have over a 100 games...

[blazing depot]

all of them have 10 minutes?

[strong pulsar]

i happened to see you stating you don't need airflow

[glass moat]

not to mention epic or origin

[strong pulsar]

I don't think that's the case

[glass moat]

its literally the case

[glass moat]

most have 0

[strong pulsar]

actually, what do you define "need" to be? keep it from throttling?

[blazing depot]

an o11d can get better thermals while looking better at a cheaper price

easy

[glass moat]

correct

[blazing depot]

and you said you're going for looks...

[glass moat]

yes

[blazing depot]

then why not get the better option

[strong pulsar]

ok so the only thing i got so far is that you don't need airflow, I wish I was you

[glass moat]

because it doesnt look as good

[blazing depot]

it does

it looks even better

miles better

[glass moat]

impose your opinion harder

[blazing depot]

imposes opinion harder

i dont think it will change your mentality

unmoveable

[glass moat]

it wont, probably

I built what I did for a specific purpose

not to game a ton

to look pretty

thats all

[blazing depot]

you could've done that at a cheaper price and at better looks

you obviously didnt do a good job

[glass moat]

perhaps, but I picked corsair specifically for their icue software

one of the features I wanted was compatibility with rgbeats

which only works on icue v3

[blazing depot]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/471304686062927882.png?size=48

[glass moat]

is having a single goal too hard for you to imagine?

I get that bapo is very budget orientated, but other people eixst

[blazing depot]

nah, its thinkable

nah, even at the same price you could've done better

[glass moat]

perhaps, but not if I wanted to stick to my goals

[blazing depot]

you just went- 'ah corsair very pricy very good' and fucked off

[glass moat]

no

I know its pricey and its not the best

but thats doesnt matter to me

[blazing depot]

yeah at that point you're a corsair shill

[glass moat]

yes i am

[blazing depot]

have fun getting bullied because of it

[glass moat]

I said that already

[blazing depot]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/758275409044570112.png?size=48

[glass moat]

I mean ive been a regular around here for 3 years

its rarely been a problem

Also, for the record, if anyone wants me to benchmark my build to show you the temps, lmk. Already got OCCT on my radar

[strong pulsar]

no need brotha man, you already said you only bought it for rgb - if lights work you're good 😂

[glass moat]

Thank you

[civic hemlock]

I have a 3900x and am cooiling it with a h100i, not the greatest cooler on earth, yet i still get btter thermals under full sustained load for a hour than you do with an h150i

Waste of money i am afraid

[main vigil]

just dont use a cpu cooler

[strong pulsar]

but is your h100i lighting up a whole 3 fans !! ??

[turbid willow]

lol

w

[glass moat]

lol

yeah occt, is not nearly pushing my cpu as hard as p95 small ftt

not even breaking 100w total tpd

anyways, there you have it folks, 60c~ under max load, works great

also chipset temps are great

[buoyant carbon]

You still need fan configuration

https://tenor.com/view/dibo-the-gift-dragon-looking-brain-cells-stupid-insult-gif-17640072

[glass moat]

as you can see, i dont

[strong pulsar]

😹

why fix issue when u can keep it for rgb

[glass moat]

?

fix?

[buoyant carbon]

@strong pulsar I’m trying to save him from future disaster

[strong pulsar]

ik, im memeing now cause he's ignorant and doesn't care lul

[glass moat]

there is nothing to save me from, except maybe this incoming convo

[buoyant carbon]

No

[strong pulsar]

he's happy his 360 aio is performing like my u12s

so i say leave him be

[buoyant carbon]

🤦‍♂️

[glass moat]

got a source?

[strong pulsar]

🧐

and my 👀🧠

[glass moat]

from you

proof that your noctuca cooler is equal

do you have any?

15m mark

its pretty stable around 57-64c

chipset is stable around 40-43c

intake fans: 0

[strong pulsar]

🤷‍♀️

[glass moat]

run it for more than 2 minutes

let the heat sink get saturated

[strong pulsar]

ran it equal to this

[glass moat]

yeah I saw, but only for 2 minutes

im also seeing a 72.9

as your max temp

and a really low avg

[strong pulsar]

i mean the test draws more power over time

variable workload

[glass moat]

great

lets see how it actually cools then

[buoyant carbon]

We just saying why spend all this money for your pc to destroy less than a year or maybe a year

[glass moat]

ive already owned if for over a year

[strong pulsar]

there you go, 73.4 tops - 4 minutes drawing 116w

how much is urs drawing?

[glass moat]

cool, my max is 62c

[strong pulsar]

😳

[glass moat]

97-100w

[strong pulsar]

ay

16w to go

[glass moat]

what voltage

[strong pulsar]

stock voltage

[glass moat]

1.321v avg here

whats your clock speed at

[strong pulsar]

4.65

[glass moat]

same

thats great

[strong pulsar]

16w is easily a couple c

so ay

i still find my claim valid

[glass moat]

eh

its not 10c worth

[strong pulsar]

I mean

could be depending on voltage

but point being

[glass moat]

im on stock pbo voltage

its slightly worse, yeah

not great performance for a 360mm aio

sure

but the temps are fine

which is my point

[strong pulsar]

yeah well what's the point of exhaust fans?

don't like how the other side looks?

[glass moat]

yeah, thats all there is too it

covers the rgb a bit too much for me

[strong pulsar]

you should consider like led strips instead

much cheaper alternative to rgb stuff

[glass moat]

I have $200 worth of strips

[strong pulsar]

the hell

[glass moat]

corsair brand, so expensive and not much but they work with my ecosystem well

[strong pulsar]

$200?

[glass moat]

yeah

thats like 4 strips, mind you

6 actually

[strong pulsar]

they're like $15 for 5m of length here

[glass moat]

its $45/m

[strong pulsar]

jesus

[glass moat]

I dont take pride in how much I paid for the record

its kinda terrible

just I really needed icue

[strong pulsar]

I wish I could help you get it cheaper

was icue needed to match colors or why?

[glass moat]

well, that is refurbished pricing

I needed the software itself

to work with another 3rd party software, rgbeats

it only works for icue

no signalrgb, openrgb, etc...

[strong pulsar]

sadly icue/nzxt cam seem to cause issues - had a guys game crash cause he had nzxt cam installed lol

took him 2 weeks to find out

[glass moat]

icue, contrary to the stereotypes associated with its users, is very good

at least icue v3 is

v4 is iffy

[strong pulsar]

I'm the opposite of aesthetics guy myself, all about that performance and value

[glass moat]

I consider myself a 90% looks 10% performance

since im in college, I dont game much either way

[strong pulsar]

ram ocing had me busy last 6 months

[glass moat]

I just used docp profile 1

[strong pulsar]

you can do fun stuff like this

[glass moat]

I dont have the time nor patience for maybe a 5% boost

[strong pulsar]

xD

that's fair

[glass moat]

cool, I could just do that from the bios

not sure why i'd need a software interface to gum up the works

[strong pulsar]

yeah this is set in bios, just monitored with a program

[glass moat]

oh

nvm

[strong pulsar]

but i sure enjoy the idea of buying like

3000c15/3200cl16/3600cl16 and making it into what more expensive kits run

[glass moat]

thats cool

not me though

[strong pulsar]

the performance diff can be pretty big but I get you, many people just want plug and play

[glass moat]

30m mark

ish

[strong pulsar]

at least you got the features of an aio

with good head capacity

[glass moat]

im really not into the whole "golden" XYZ part, I just want it to look good and work well

dont want to mess with it and dont care if its a winner of the so called silicon lottery

but that includes testing to make sure im getting at least some of my moneys worth

[strong pulsar]

now back to my original question how come ya didnt turn pc on for the pic :(

[glass moat]

well I actually explained that

#901104281283874918 message

[strong pulsar]

did u give the glass a clean 😳

[glass moat]

I have not

I dont really look at my desktop that often, just the rgb towers and strips

so it doesnt hugely bother me

[glass moat]

also mind you I got it for a good deal, $105 used off of HWS

[strong pulsar]

that's nice deal in all fairness 👍 😄

[main vigil]

And thats a cheap gamer board

[turbid willow]

not really

[acoustic prairie]

i feel like 85c isnt that good even with heavy oc but i havent tried p95 so im not sure but when i do 3dmark timespy i oc my gpu to 2815mhz clock and 2340mhz memory and get like 60c average

[acoustic prairie]

that is badass

[acoustic prairie]

uh if u dont look at it why dont u flip the fans

[clever verge]

how is there so much cope in this thread

[main vigil]

Yeah lol

[turbid willow]

I mean it’s 200 dollars unless you consider that cheap

[glass moat]

its almost like I bought it for icue

like the rest of my rgb parts

[glass moat]

my gpu core clock is around 2115 and memory clock around 9000 at 60c in superposition 1080p extreme

[glass moat]

because im not the only person in the room

[glass moat]

you guys came to me looking for answers, not my fault if you dont like them

[glass moat]

paid $160 for it refurbished

[glass moat]

also p95 is by far, at least on small ftt, as it has a couple different modes, the most demanding benchmark/stability test I know of. If you want a real test, you should try it

gpu test from yesterday with superposition

there is no 1440p option btw, only 1080p or 4k

[buoyant carbon]

Man your still trying to prove your point?

[glass moat]

no, trying to defend my build

[buoyant carbon]

I thought you proved it alread

[glass moat]

me too

[buoyant carbon]

Oh

[glass moat]

then I woke up to three pings

and I was like, fr?

[buoyant carbon]

What are they saying now?

[glass moat]

well scroll up a bit

[buoyant carbon]

Oml

Just nit picks

😂

[glass moat]

well, even nit picks need to be put down

eventually they'll stop complaining

[buoyant carbon]

Tbh it’s not a bad build I was just saying about the air flow witch you understand I see but they just being ducks now and not picking your build

[glass moat]

thanks

[buoyant carbon]

Np

But you do understand where I was comming from with the air flow right?

Like if it works like that water cooled then your good

[glass moat]

of course, but do you also understand that airflow is not a goal of the build right?

[buoyant carbon]

Yes

[glass moat]

great

simple and easy

[buoyant carbon]

Yup

Just picked up a ryzen 7 5700G for 300 not bad

[glass moat]

oh nice

I got my 5600X from MC in person for $269.99

as well as my second motherboard

asus was pretty good about their warranty

[buoyant carbon]

That’s a great deal wtf

[glass moat]

yeah, its good to have 3 MCs in my state

all within 2hr driving

Including the OG MC

[clever verge]

the copium levels in this thread are off the charts

[buoyant carbon]

Yup

[glass moat]

yeah from you guys

[clever verge]

kekw

[main vigil]

Almost as other products have rgb too

https://tenor.com/view/mind-blown-amazed-explosion-space-omg-gif-10279314

[acoustic prairie]

lol tbh i dont even like icue and especially not msi mystic light so i just turned off rgb for my pc and it looks so much better without it,

and i feel like if he really gotta spend so much on looks i feel like he couldve done it much better no offense

but ill stop complaining now

[clever verge]

icue is proprietary garbage

[glass moat]

almost like no other products have icue

[glass moat]

its actually great

the only people who hate it havent used it

or are using v4

[clever verge]

lol insert msi motherboard jcorsair meme here

[glass moat]

very funny

anyways, only icue works with my software

as previously stated, twice

[glass moat]

yeah probably if I didnt pick corsair, but I built it with that in mind

[clever verge]

ok gamer lol

[glass moat]

cope harder

[clever verge]

no 😭 i dont have a pc i only have an ipad mini

don't make me feel small about it

[glass moat]

you're small

tiny

[clever verge]

ooOOOO you're such a big man 😱

[glass moat]

I have to look down just to see your hairline

[clever verge]

😔

[glass moat]

:)))

[clever verge]

i bet your corsair proprietary soy-ware doesn't work with linux 😏

[glass moat]

*your

[clever verge]

you're right that makes no sense

i effectively said "i bet you are corsair proprietary"

[glass moat]

Lol

Yeah pretty much

its windows only

its a fan-made software

[clever verge]

anyways, not ssd talk so dont really care

[main vigil]

I have

[main vigil]

It’s almost like there are other things that are far better then icue

[main vigil]

Ur trying to cope for ur build lmao

[glass moat]

no, its just you guys being unable to accept what I built

[glass moat]

#901104281283874918 message

dont talk shit and not read...

[main vigil]

Or stop trying to cope with ur bad temps for looks and use common sense

[main vigil]

Mmmm

[glass moat]

sorry I didnt know 60c was bad

[main vigil]

Sounds like a you problem

[glass moat]

its really not a problem to begin with

[main vigil]

83 on ur graph

[glass moat]

wow

did you like, miss the part where I specifically explained why that means very little?

because I think you did

[main vigil]

I read that and it makes no sense

[glass moat]

it makes perfect sense?

you're probably thinking of the wrong message

[main vigil]

Unless you only play fortnite you aren’t getting good temps

[glass moat]

what

83c is done on a max +200 pbo on small fft in p95 with low airflow, if that doesnt tell you how unpractical that is and how much I will never recreate that on daily usage, you're hopeless

dont know what else to tell you

and no, I could play literally any game, cp2077, moster hunter worlds, titanfall 2, etc... and get sub 60c any settings

because thats the thing, p95 is more demanding than any game

its essentially the worst case scenario, so if you think 83c is bad there, again, you're hopeless

[glass moat]

cope harder

https://rgbeat.net

[main vigil]

Lmao ur the one coping

[turbid willow]

Kek

[glass moat]

Keep telling yourself that

[buoyant carbon]

@glass moat 3days now your and they still don’t understand you

[glass moat]

yup

[turbid willow]

Sum it up for me

[blazing depot]

man sacrifices looks for performance and temps

easy

spends too much on corsair rgb when other rgb would look better

has whole house made of corsair, including the condoms

[turbid willow]

💀

Oh yeah by having all exhaust

[blazing depot]

and an o11d

the first mistake was an o11d

second mistake, corsair fans

[turbid willow]

Ikr

[blazing depot]

third mistake, 100% exhaust

[turbid willow]

I mean

Corsair fans are fine, but all exhaust naw

And yes the o11d annoys me

[blazing depot]

yes

overused case for tiktok

[turbid willow]

Literally

[blazing depot]

tiktok is where it should keep its head poking, not the pc community

[turbid willow]

Yup

Although it has many possibilities for distribution plates, that’s my only reason I would ever reason get one, but everything else about it makes me stay far far away from it

[turbid willow]

I can agree sorta, Corsair is definitely overpriced, nearly all of my stuff is Corsair, but it does look pretty good in my opinion

[blazing depot]

[turbid willow]

Yeah

The virtuoso special edition, and rgb edition were both big mistakes of mine

He wants looks over performance but can’t clean his side panel

[glass moat]

headphones/audio is one thing I wont buy from corsair

I have a 2.1 setup anyways, Vanatoo T1E and SVS SB-2000 Pros

[glass moat]

well not really, sure there are some compromises, but nothing is throttling, not by a long shot, so where is the performance loss?

[glass moat]

the only bad thing about the case, keep in mind this was in Jan 2020 when I bought it, that it came with no fans. In hindsight, in 2021, I would now go with a Lancool Mesh II or a 5000 series case from Corsair

[glass moat]

Not really a mistake if it works well...

[glass moat]

just a disclaimer, I have never used TikTok and it holds no influence on this build

[glass moat]

I just did today, along with my keyboard, but also I gave a reason found here why I never really bothered to do it until now #901104281283874918 message

[blazing depot]

was mentioning the case in that part

[glass moat]

I see

[acoustic prairie]

u also said other ppl was looking at it and why would they not be bothered about it

[glass moat]

Because they are just regular people, who dont care about how clean the glass is?

[acoustic prairie]

so they care about all the lights and all but dont care about all the fingerprints and stuff infront of it

regular ppl dont care about my rgb

[glass moat]

yes, thats exactly it

[glass moat]

in my experience, people who ask for demos do care about the rgb peripherals

but definitely not how clean the glass is

[acoustic prairie]

the only thing i care about is how clean my pc is, i have 6 fans with rgb, a gpu with rgb, ram with rgb and an aio pump with rgb but i turned it all off bc after i bought it i figured out rgb sucks

would u rather have a dusty shitty pc with a bunch of lights or a clean pc without it

[glass moat]

Im not you, we care about different things I see

[glass moat]

dusty? shitty? where is that coming from?

but I guess if I was given the choice if that were the case, I would take a "clean" desktop?

[acoustic prairie]

when i look at ur setup again i can just see shitty cable management and a messy room with a bunch of rgb trying to make up for it

[glass moat]

well for starters its a dorm room, im in college, my room is actually pretty clean

im also in a double, so I have a roommate

The rgb in the room was given the go ahead by my roommate, who loved the idea

[acoustic prairie]

im not saying ur pc is dusty but if u dont keep cleaning it its gonna end up like that

[glass moat]

And in terms of cable management, the only visible cables are the two aio tubes, which I promise you there is no alternative placement that looks better, gpu power cable, which is the same situation, cpu and motherboard power cable, which also there is no better placement, even with zip ties, and finally the aio power cable, which came lose and is a bit farther out from behind the motherboard then i'd like

[glass moat]

Of course, any PC gets dusty, but understand that having clean glass is in no way connected or related

[acoustic prairie]

i mean around the pc aswell

[glass moat]

Oh yeah, I have a 10 outlet surge protector and strip, it only fits there, unfortunately

Due to the placement of the UPS in the room, it can only be there

[acoustic prairie]

i would def try to find a way to hide it or just move the pc somewhere else

or just remove the rgb so u dont get to deal with all those unecessary cables

[glass moat]

Well the first could be done by covering it, which is a fire hazard, and the second is obviously off the table

[buoyant carbon]

This might as well be a fucking chat for the server cause people yo

[glass moat]

god no

I would be here for weeks if this was a public chat

[buoyant carbon]

😂

Lmfao

[glass moat]

I already regret posting...

just my last post was deleted in the wipe

[buoyant carbon]

Lmfoa

[civic hemlock]

God damm, this thread blew up

[glass moat]

sure did

[buoyant carbon]

Definitely did

[civic hemlock]

🤷‍♂️

[glass moat]

what

[buoyant carbon]

This chat still up Lmfoa

[buoyant carbon]

Hmm

[acoustic prairie]

u rly dont want this thread to be archived or smth lmao

[buoyant carbon]

Bruh

[buoyant carbon]

Air flow

[buoyant carbon]

This chat is not dying

[blazing depot]

cuz you are keeping it from archiving

ofc it aint gonna archive if you type here

[blazing depot]

found another all-exhaust o11d

[main vigil]

Lmao

[turbid willow]

20 years later this chat still gonna be unarchived

[civic hemlock]

no

[turbid willow]

My point stands

[acoustic prairie]

yes

[civic hemlock]

ur mom

[turbid willow]

[acoustic prairie]

stop

[turbid willow]

[buoyant carbon]

Let this chat die

https://tenor.com/view/dragon-ball-super-saiyan-goku-gif-5009523

[acoustic prairie]

hmm

ok

from now on we wait 24h
