this build confuses me
what's up with the fans? why are there no screws on the GPU? your motherboard is also missing screws.. why is the GPU in the bottom slot?
looks like you need some #pc-assembly-help mate
build has potential, but there's so much wrong here
also i could be mistaken, but it seems like you don't actually have any storage?
oh i see.. the other pictures are how it is now. nice to see you fixed some of it

as said before you need to move the gpu to the top slot
they aren't saying this just for aesthetic reasons, it's important for pcie bandwith, card will be dogshit in bottom slot

assuming thats pcie gen 3 then yes

assuming thats pcie gen 3 then yes
assuming it's any pcie
top slot has direct lanes to cpu
others go to southbridge
99.99% of motherboards don't even have more than one 16x bandwidth slot

ehhhhhhhhhh
not always
all consumer intel and amd boards only have one 16x for cpu
and the rest are either 8x or 4x

? Are you telling me a gamer board woudnt have 16 cpu lanes?
vale mica
no?
i’m saying different boards have different layouts
all have at least 1 16x and some others vary between 8x and 4x
sterile jay
Mhm? I'm sorry i dont get your point
vale mica
second slot is not always 4x

all have at least 1 16x and some others vary between 8x and 4x
yes, that's my point
the top one is 16x
the only boards i've seen with more than one 16x slot are threadripper and xeon boards
