What kind of mobo do you have?
crimson scroll
You don't need gold rated
west marten
Do the mobo lights come on?
crimson scroll
You save a couple dollars at best per year
low vigil
Ye lights are on I can show u
west marten
Efficiency is not the only good thing about a gold rating, they are usually more reliable, I suggest never cheaping out on a PSU @crimson scroll
west marten
The price diff between a gold and bronze isn't big
@low vigil Unplug and clean your ram sticks? worth a try
Do you have any other components lying around?
west marten
Sure
noble oak
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HWdg9G
Any suggestions for my parts?
unborn kiln
Looks solid
Maybe just an NVMe?
Other then that nothing much. You could find a way better case imo
clear jacinth
okay yeah maybe just don't go with that case, I don't see a lot of ventilation
unborn kiln
I have the p400a
Probably some of the best ventilation and it wasn't that expensive...
Yeah just looks like your case and you could consider an NVMe SSD
sinful crypt
I want to upgrade from my Blackwidow Chroma, but steelseries doesnt have any keyboards with macro buttons (M1-M5), makes me sad.
Are there any alternatives?
chilly edge
I'm fairly certain that the Apex 7/Pro do have macro keys on the Nav cluster (Ins, Del, Home, End, Pg Up, Pg Dn)

crimson scroll
What
crimson scroll
whats up
finite plank
im not rlly sure what compatibility issues i need to watch out for and i deally want a mother board i wont have to change for another few years
crimson scroll
cool
finite plank
WD blue
crimson scroll
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/ this will be your friend
future proof up until am5, yes
low vigil
Nothing is future proof forever
crimson scroll
thats why i don't use that term very much haha
finite plank
yeah ive used pc part picker i understand it helps with compatibility but i also dont know what is overkill for a mother baord
is 200 too much for a future 'proof' MB
crimson scroll
well, you probably won't care too much about vrm quality, as long as it handles a 3700x and a mild oc, you'll be good
finite plank
im looking around 150 but i rlly dont know
finite plank
i have a laptop as well why is this so relatable XDD
crimson scroll
looks like the msi mpg x570 gaming plus is 170 pounds which would be just fine for you
low vigil
I use the aorus pro x570
small fiber
There’s always b550
finite plank
@crimson scroll @low vigil ive been planning to build a pc for a year now always stalling XD
crimson scroll
do you care about rgb
finite plank
yeah let me send you my build
low vigil
You always want to make your purchases as close to MSRP as possible regardless of anybody’s recommendations
small fiber
And unless you need all of the pci-e lanes offered by x570 they’re around $120-150
crimson scroll
manufacturer suggested retail price
finite plank
ah kk
low vigil
@crimson scroll did you Google that xD
finite plank
so you sat x570?
low vigil
✅
crimson scroll
honestly what you have now is fine, you don't really need to buy thermal paste separately
low vigil
You need to tell me what cpu and GPU you want
What your total budget is
Because we can't make one component OP and the other noobie
crimson scroll
maybe a different case though, a p400a would cost you about the same after those case fans
@low vigil he already stated, 1500 pounds, and he linked a list
small fiber
I would try to find the parts individually to get the best price
finite plank
should i upgrade cpu or nothing worth improving?
crimson scroll
it's fine for gaming
finite plank
and programming?
crimson scroll
you can always sell it and add in a zen3 processor later for a small cost
what kind of programming
low vigil
Your cpu will always be outdated cus tech evolves faster than you can count to 10
crimson scroll
if you're literally writing code, anything can do that
finite plank
idk about to start uni
crimson scroll
also, gpus get outdated faster than cpus
so...that's not exactly true zr1
there are 2700k and 4790k that keep up today
low vigil
@crimson scroll what's the name of that tech thing where technology improves twice as fast
finite plank
the rule?
low vigil
Yeees
finite plank
yeah that
low vigil
You know it
finite plank
exponential
crimson scroll
that doesn't translate linearly to performance
low vigil
Moore's law is the observation that the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles about every two years.
Which is correct
Your cpu is outdated in 2 years
finite plank
anyhow is the b550 gonna last me a while
low vigil
Yeeee
finite plank
the 5 3600?
crimson scroll
an 8700k was released in q4 2017, it's not outdated lmao
it's not as powerful as a 10700k sure
finite plank
also you said its fine for gaming, i dont want fine, i want good
crimson scroll
but will it perform perfectly fine even with a 2080ti? yes
finite plank
or is it good
crimson scroll
it'll be good
finite plank
gucci
crimson scroll
if you want top tier gaming performance, go intel
the difference is only a couple of frames in most games
finite plank
then no point
need me some money for going out at uni XD
those frames can wait
also would you say the 5 3600 id need to upgrade in about a year or so or more?
crimson scroll
probably not
if you wanted to, you would be able to drop in a zen3 processor for more frames, but you would be just fine keeping it
crimson scroll
supposedly end of 2020
finite plank
oh ok
crimson scroll
expect delays
finite plank
nah ill get the 3600 now then uprade in a few years
small fiber
Same with the new graphics cards
finite plank
so you dont think 3000 series will drop september?
small fiber
Probably not
finite plank
i was planning on getting 3000 series or a 2000 series at a reduced price once they release
so do you think i should just go ahead and buy all my parts
low vigil
crimson scroll
yes, go ahead
crimson scroll
congrats, you've not disproved what i said
real world performance hasn't scaled like that recently
and gpus are still faster to become obsolete
low vigil
Congratulations you played yourself
crimson scroll
i've provided concrete evidence that a cpu from three years ago is not outdated, contrary to what you've said
low vigil
In 2017 Ryzen released the 1000 series which has 8 cores 16 threads
In 2019 Ryzen released the 3950x which has 16 cores 32 threads
So it's correct so far
low vigil
Wanna bet it's gonna double again in 2021
low vigil
32 cores 64 threads
crimson scroll
the 1950x also has 16 cores
also, the 3990x exists
stop making random comparisons to prove your point
crimson scroll
you're literally comparing the "1000 series" to a specific threadripper on zen 2
low vigil
Why do you have to bully me for that
crimson scroll
because it's an inaccurate comparison
you didn't even specify which 1000 series processor
if you're gonna compare HEDT, do it right
low vigil
I'm on mobile give me a break
crimson scroll
1000 series is literally more words than 1950x
small fiber
Oh WeLl iM sUrE aMd ePyC rOmE 3995 is better than a ryzen 3 1300
low vigil
You tried your best and you failed miserably. The lesson is, never try.
crimson scroll
not even remotely in the same price bracket. please don't make stupid comparisons like that
don't know why you're insulting me, either
small fiber
You can however compare a ryzen 7 3700x to a ryzen 7 1700x
crimson scroll
yeah
small fiber
And you will see quite a massive difference
crimson scroll
agreed
finite plank
do i get 5 3600+buy a cooler or 7 3700 with stock coolers wraith prism whatever it is
crimson scroll
the stock coolers are generally fine...they run a bit hot but won't kill your cpu
a 3700x will do better with any multitasking, due to the extra cores. for example, if you want to do any video editing
it's around a hundred bucks difference in the US for the two, whether that's worth it to you...i can't say
finite plank
guess ill stick to 3600
crimson scroll
yeah. the 3700x also does slightly better in games, but...key word being slightly
low vigil
It's fine with stock but will last longer with an aftermarket
naive dagger
3600 is where it’s at 😎
low vigil
@crimson scroll were do you think the problem lies in my pc
Computer starts with full fan speed but no connection with the monitor
crimson scroll
you plugged into the gpu or the mobo
naive dagger
Lol yeah you have to be into the mobo
naive dagger
When you first make it
crimson scroll
if your cpu has no integrated graphics, you have to plug into your dedicated gpu to get signal out
naive dagger
Well yeah it’s not the case it’s the mobo
naive dagger
Oh huh
crimson scroll
make sure everything is seated properly
low vigil
Tried a differrnt display port
naive dagger
Did you dip it in water and bleach
low vigil
No difference
naive dagger
Try that
crimson scroll
can you stop trolling
naive dagger
...no
crimson scroll
you're breaking up the chat and making it harder to help them
naive dagger
Ok
crimson scroll
go somewhere else
crimson scroll
right, you said you took out the ram and cleaned it
finite plank
okay i have another dilema
low vigil
Yes
crimson scroll
so it's possible it was loose when you reseated that
low vigil
I did that after that
finite plank
do i go atx or microatx
low vigil
In case the problem was in the ram
crimson scroll
@finite plank do you have any size constraints for your pc
crimson scroll
if you're not transporting it often, atx is fine
naive dagger
ATX will fill it more and make it Look less empty
crimson scroll
@low vigil clear cmos perhaps
low vigil
I need to access bios for that
naive dagger
That’s just cosmetic
crimson scroll
clearing cmos just means powering down and pulling out the watch battery for a couple of seconds
it resets your bios settings without needing to actually go into bios
low vigil
The watch battery?
finite plank
ATX will fill it more and make it Look less empty
@naive dagger but wont micro atx do that even more
naive dagger
Micro atx is literally smaller
crimson scroll
it will take up less space, so you'll have more empty space
finite plank
oh sorry forgot to say
naive dagger
My wording was misleading sorry
crimson scroll
low vigil
@crimson scroll is that advanced
finite plank
if i got for a micro atx then i will go for a smaller case
crimson scroll
see the little round watch battery under the gpu?
low vigil
crimson scroll
that's the battery you pull for cmos
finite plank
im looking at the fractal design meshify c regular/mini
crimson scroll
meshify is fine, just have to add fans to get good thermal performance, at which point you might as well get a different case for the same price
finite plank
c dark what
crimson scroll
tg is tempered glass
low vigil
@crimson scroll is there a anything u don't know
crimson scroll
there's a lot i don't know
finite plank
so i should just go with atx MB then
naive dagger
There’s nothing I don’t know 😎
naive dagger
See saucy agrees w/ me
crimson scroll
can add wifi card and any other expansions you need
naive dagger
I currently have a crappy WiFi usb; should I switch to a pcie card
finite plank
mATX comes with wifi tho
crimson scroll
yes
wifi usb sticks generally run hot
@finite plank that's not in the matx spec
low vigil
@crimson scroll do you think unplugging all usb cables could fix my problem?
crimson scroll
there are matx boards that come with wifi and bluetooth
just as there are ATX boards that come with wifi and bluetooth
finite plank
MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard
crimson scroll
there are also boards of both sizes that don't come with wifi and bluetooth
finite plank
okay,sorry if im making no sense im so lost
crimson scroll
@low vigil i've seen a situation where case fans were drawing too much power...so maybe? unlikely but you can try it if you want
naive dagger
Wait but case fans don’t use usb
finite plank
so that one i just shared is it worth gettingthat MB along with shrinking a mid tower case
crimson scroll
they don't, my point was that weird situations can arise where the root cause of the problem is unexpected @naive dagger
naive dagger
Oh I see
finite plank
from meshify C to meshify c mini
crimson scroll
@finite plank i generally view it as better to just buy a wifi expansion card
if you want the smaller computer, then go matx by all means, nothing wrong with that either
if you want to go even smaller, like mitx and SFF cases, that starts to get more expensive, and harder to cool
finite plank
but the matx should be as efficient as the atx build?
crimson scroll
yes
finite plank
okay i might do that then
crimson scroll
be careful with the video card
make sure you check the case supported gpu length against the actual length of the gpu
and if you go with an aftermarket cpu cooler, check that it fits the case as well
for some smaller cases, longer video cards will fit only if you remove the hard drive bays
low vigil
Yeah the length is a problem
But sometimes you can move the lower fan up
Like in my case
To make it fit
finite plank
should that all be fine if pc partpicker doesnt say anyything
crimson scroll
it can't check all dimensions so i would go to the manufacturer websites and double check to be safe
low vigil
@crimson scroll what's your pc specs
naive dagger
@crimson scroll what’re your pc’s specs
crimson scroll
... Why ping me after he pinged me already
naive dagger
Those aren’t specs
crimson scroll
Sucks to be you huh
sinful crypt
https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/30392114 Why does my benchmark say my GPU is underperforming?
crimson scroll
@low vigil r5 2600, gtx1080, 24gb 3200cl14, ab350 gaming 3, corsair 200r, sn750 500gb, seasonic m12II Evo 520w, bunch of other random drives
Probably says that because it's scoring lower than other similar gpus
naive dagger
Cool
sinful crypt
I hope someone can help me with my GPU issue
crimson scroll
how are the temps on your card under load
crimson scroll
overclocking is pretty safe, you can use msi afterburner and just use sliders
if you're not doing shunt mods and stuff to make your power limit crazy, you'll probably be fine
you can set temperature limits too so that your card won't overheat
naive dagger
Can I run battlefield v at ultra on my raspberry pi 3
sinful crypt
troll :/
naive dagger
Nice
sinful crypt
I'll mute too
crimson scroll
sure
with any overclocking, you increase voltage and clock little by little, stress test, and if it's stable, you keep going
there are safe limits you shouldn't go over, i stick below 105% power limit for my gpu but you can go up to 130
low vigil
But you can overcloco via bios without installing any software
crimson scroll
for your CPU
low vigil
With my bios u can
crimson scroll
you're talking about your CPU right
sinful crypt
hmm
its still pretty risky to OC
and honestly idk if i NEED too?
all my games play flawlessly at ultra
static pecan
@sinful crypt GPUs have built in safeguards to prevent them from bricking so if you push it too far it would just shut itself down and reset itself to default settings before you could literally kill it
sinful crypt
ok ill try it then
crimson scroll
if you're happy with your performance
static pecan
If you're nervous about it look up an OC guide from JayzTwoCents because he uses Afterburner for all his GPU OCs
crimson scroll
then you don't have to
but it is kind of a shame to have a 2080ti and not push it a bit
static pecan
But OCing is free performance so if you have the ability you might as well do it lol
static pecan
Start by dragging the power limit all the way to the right then just gradually bump up clock and memory speeds by like 100mhz at a time until it starts becoming unstable
crimson scroll
ideally yes
you close everything but afterburner and your stress test of choice, like unigine heaven
crimson scroll
i'm not familiar with the userbenchmark test, it's fine for comparing to make sure your system is performing up to spec but i don't know if it stress tests
yes, it's free
static pecan
download unigine heaven and have it running in loop while you bump up clock and memory speeds. You'll know you're pushing the card too far when you start to see artifacts in the benchmark
Slide the power limit all the way to the right
sinful crypt
just like 1?
crimson scroll
you can unlink the temp and power limit if you want, and manually control the temp limit
sinful crypt
to the right?
crimson scroll
no, all the way
sinful crypt
ok done
sinful crypt
oh wow yours is easier on the eyes than mine
static pecan
You want the GPU to be able to draw as much power as it can so that's why you move the slider all the way to the right
crimson scroll
you can change the theme if you'd like, go to settings
crimson scroll
then keep clicking right until you get to user interface
static pecan
Hey that's the theme I use too @crimson scroll lmao
crimson scroll
you see the middle of the screen?
crimson scroll
yep
all the way to the right of the settings tabs is user interface
the one i have selected is the one i'm using
static pecan
Ya the default theme kinda sucks lol
crimson scroll
okay now you see core clock and memory clock?
sinful crypt
yes
crimson scroll
whichever you want
sinful crypt
im new to this
crimson scroll
50 will be slower but will be more fine tuned
crimson scroll
you can just start with 100
static pecan
Since it's a 2080TI you can start with 100 and when it hits it's limit then you can dial in a more precise clock speed
sinful crypt
crimson scroll
looks good, just gotta apply
static pecan
Click the check mark to apply
sinful crypt
ok, close everything else?
crimson scroll
leave discord open so we can walk you through
but yeah, close everything but afterburner, unigine heaven, and discord
sinful crypt
how about my animated background
static pecan
The best way to monitor everything in real time is to have heaven running on loop in windowed mode with Afterburner overlayed on top of it so you can keep bumping clock speeds and see how that affects temps and FPS. Eventually you'll hit a point where you'll start seeing artifacts in heaven and that's when you start lowering the clock speeds bit by bit until you get rid of those artifacts
sinful crypt
ok, anything else?
static pecan
Let it run for about 10 minutes in a loop so it gets up to its max temp then start messing with clock speeds
static pecan
Yeah don't stop it tho keep it running as you're bumping up speeds like I said
sinful crypt
whenever i come to talk in discord
fps dropps
is that ok
it drops like 15-20 frames
crimson scroll
that's normal
crimson scroll
it's fine
it should start throttling at around 80-85
if everything looks smooth and no random black spots or anything, bump up the clocks a bit more, by 100mhz
crimson scroll
the benchmark scenes restarted?
yeah that's supposed to happen
you can start upping the clocks now
sinful crypt
ok
crimson scroll
remember to apply, then just wait
crimson scroll
drag up core and mem clock by 100mhz each and apply
crimson scroll
yup
sinful crypt
ok it crashed
crimson scroll
every card has different silicon
some can overclock to higher frequencies with less voltage, some can't
sinful crypt
ok so i put it back to 100
crimson scroll
1965mhz is fine
sinful crypt
uh its not 1965 anymore
crimson scroll
some manufacturers also overclock out of the box already
sinful crypt
crimson scroll
yeah when not under load your gpu won't be at full frequency
crimson scroll
give it some time to ramp back up
sinful crypt
i barely hear the fans, usually i never hear them
crimson scroll
if i turn my fans up to 100% on manual mode, they blast so loud
crimson scroll
and there's no artifacting?
crimson scroll
what temp is the gpu at
sinful crypt
82 right now
crimson scroll
cool, bump it up to 175
crimson scroll
nice, let it keep running for a bit
crimson scroll
everything still looking good?
static pecan
You can also change the fan curve to make it more aggressive to bring temps down.
crimson scroll
yes, faster fan = louder
if you don't mind the noise, then go ahead and turn up the fan speed
static pecan
A little bit, but it depends on the quality of the fans on the card how loud they get
sinful crypt
uh hold on they are custom fans i got their names here
static pecan
What brand is the card from?
crimson scroll
heh
static pecan
F
crimson scroll
nothing
crimson scroll
could use hwinfo
sinful crypt
oh
crimson scroll
or open up your pc
crimson scroll
or see if you still have the box somewhere
looks like we should stick at +150 then
sinful crypt
ok i set it back to 150
crimson scroll
you can try changing just one of memory and core clock to see which one you can push a little higher
crimson scroll
nice
sinful crypt
so yeah asus
crimson scroll
i'm gonna go ahead and guess that +150 is the limit for your core clock, but you can probably push your memory clock higher, like +500 or more
sinful crypt
would that be massive gains or not so much
also this is in windowed mode, did i want windowed mode?
or full screen
crimson scroll
it wouldn't be massive gains
sinful crypt
crimson scroll
you need to get a larger res monitor, a 1080p monitor with a 2080ti is sacrilege
crimson scroll
i would look into 1440p 144hz or 4k 60hz
sinful crypt
the one that says im underperforming
hey so, that last pic says gpu had 4gb of memory?
Shouldnt it be 11?
Yeah, says i have 11gb
but this says 4gb?
sinful crypt
ok whew
do i need to leave the msi up all the time to keep the +150?
Or is it a set it and forget it
crimson scroll
looks like your 9900k is still at 3.60ghz
should OC that too then
it will take longer
sinful crypt
thats dangerous tho right, no failsafe like the gpu
sinful crypt
so start with windows? or is there another setting
sinful crypt
and it automatically applies?
crimson scroll
yeah
crimson scroll
no prob
make sure you save to a profile and lock it
so you won't lose the OC settings
crimson scroll
lol
sinful crypt
Here is before https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/30392114
crimson scroll
check what other 2080ti users are getting fps wise on the unigine test
sinful crypt
Here is after https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/30999056
og the GPU score went up
everything else went down
crimson scroll
variance is expected
you run the same thing 100 times, you're not gonna get the same numbers
sinful crypt
hmm ok, why is my samsung drive so bad?
sinful crypt
damn
crimson scroll
you can close everything down and run a crystaldisk benchmark on it
crimson scroll
uhh
your monitor shouldn't affect anything
apart from what res you run stuff at
crimson scroll
looks fine
crimson scroll
yeah
sinful crypt
damn
crimson scroll
don't worry so much about the userbenchmark benchmark
sinful crypt
is there a better benchmark?
crimson scroll
for SSDs specifically? the most common one is crystaldisk, but there's a lot
sinful crypt
oh no for everything
crimson scroll
sequential r/w is overrated anyways, most people care about random perf
for everything? nah, just use separate benchmarks
sinful crypt
oh ok
i also didnt know the intel one was better than the samsung
but i just learned about that last week lol
crimson scroll
it's ... not
sinful crypt
oh?
crimson scroll
660p is QLC and 1800/1800 r/w
970 evo plus is 3500/3300, TLC, and is categorized as top tier prosumer
also, your ram is 3600cl18 but i don't think you were running it at that speed when you posted your hwinfo
did you enable XMP in bios?
crimson scroll
under advanced frequency probably?
i don't know what the intel gigabyte bios looks like
or advanced memory
sinful crypt
ok ill try and see in a bit
i have discord on phone
i guess i could take phone pics
<
ok going into bios now
brb

humble oar
two days ago all i needed was a power supply and motherboard. now i have to start over
humble oar
my dad smashed all of my parts and my phone AND i have no money ðŸ¤
sinful crypt
Lemme look
crimson scroll
you pay for all the parts yourself?
static pecan
Why exactly did that happen?
humble oar
it's a long story
crimson scroll
price gap right now between 3100 and 3300x makes the 3100 not worth it, at least in the US
and 1650 super is...meh
sinful crypt
crimson scroll
@humble oar i'm sorry, nobody should have that happen. I don't know what your family dynamic is like but i hope you can work it out and get your parts back
sinful crypt
Just 1 profile or disable
hidden spade
1
crimson scroll
@hidden spade 3600 and used rx580
hidden spade
ok i will look into it
crimson scroll
@sinful crypt you sure your ram is 3600cl18? check if your motherboard supports higher ram speeds
humble oar
i hope so too. maybe by the time i finally have enough money to get new parts i'll be able to get the best parts
sinful crypt
Uh I'll get into windows and check
hidden spade
@crimson scroll is it ryzen 5
crimson scroll
yes, ryzen 5 3600
hidden spade
wait what
crimson scroll
amazon and walmart have been at war lowering the price very slowly, you can get one for about 160
hidden spade
i thought u said 3600
crimson scroll
typed the wrong one sorry
low vigil
@crimson scroll is it true that there's not much difference between a brand new gpu and second hand
crimson scroll
for the most part yes
sinful crypt
@crimson scroll idk if this is what you need, but heres this?
crimson scroll
and you're located in the US?
@sinful crypt so your ram is 3000cl15, but your parts list has it at 3600cl18
sinful crypt
uh oh i probably got the wrong ram then
Do I need to do anything right now then?
Or is this not good ram
sinful crypt
Hmm ok
crimson scroll
@hidden spade yeah going used will definitely get you the best bang for buck at a 600 budget
low vigil
@crimson scroll what phone do you use
crimson scroll
?? why
hidden spade
i already have my parts on amazon save for later for 600$
but when corona over its gonna drop
so imma wait
crimson scroll
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/V9rjTC after adding on the 3300x price of 120, this is pretty close to 600
yeah, if you wait then ask again right when you're about to build
prices will shift
hidden spade
i need a 500gb
crimson scroll
that case also needs some extra fans, you can pick up arctic fans for cheap
hidden spade
ye i will ask my mom to pay for pc parts and i will pay for mouse keyboard monitor and all that
crimson scroll
@low vigil to elaborate on what i said earlier, any decent gpu miner would have undervolted and underclocked their gpus, so that wouldn't be a concern with shortened lifespan. A card used for exotic overclocking and pushing power limits would be at a much higher risk for a shortened lifespan. Most used cards are perfectly safe to use though
hidden spade
the 1650s and rx580 is only 10$ difference so i dont see the reason cuz the 1650s gets more fps
i think
i looked at reviews
crimson scroll
true
hidden spade
oof
crimson scroll
what needs to save

Will overclocking your ram affect its health
crimson scroll

low vigil

hidden spade

low vigil

crimson scroll
crimson scroll

crimson scroll
thought it was like a video of an error or something that you were having trouble with
hidden spade

finite plank
yo
can anyone quickly finish off my builld
buying my parts right now just need a good mid-high end motherboard
crimson scroll
why are you mixing and matching the fans?
also the one you originally had in there was fine
finite plank
sorry ignore that
just going with 2 140mm fans
the case comes with 2
Acer Nitro VG271UPbmiipx 27 inch is this a good monitor?
crimson scroll
the one you have on there is a good one
the acer is fine, just meh contrast ratio apparently
crimson scroll
?
the lg has freesync
and is widely regarded as having really good image quality
finite plank
it doesnt say freesync
crimson scroll
the acer stand is also kind of meh, looking at the pictures
finite plank
oh nvm it does
finite plank
just doesnt have it in the title but it has it in the desc
ok ty
this is going to hurt my wallet
crimson scroll
i mean
finite plank
still stuck on a motherboard
crimson scroll
don't spend money that you can't, right
finite plank
lmao yeh
crimson scroll
on stuff for myself, my general rule is don't get it unless i can safely afford buying two of them
also like i pointed out earlier you don't need a separate tube of thermal paste
crimson scroll
most coolers come preapplied or have a little tube or pouch
finite plank
oh okay
crimson scroll
comes with mx-4
anyways, you could get a b450-a pro max, a aorus elite, the b450/550 tomahawk/max, etc
lots of good options
finite plank
what about the fan i have rn
crimson scroll
i think it's weird you're picking two different ones
finite plank
wdym
crimson scroll
do you really like the look of the meshify c?
finite plank
does that come with thermal paste
crimson scroll
i'd go for the 34 duo if it wasn't so overpriced
and yes, that's what i just pointed out with that link
finite plank
ok
crimson scroll
the website for the cooler states it comes with mx-4
crimson scroll
a lot of people don't like the aorus elite bios so maybe don't pick that one
finite plank
for the fans im just getting 2 bionix
ok
need something on amazon rlly everything else is amazon
crimson scroll
a lot of your stuff on that list isn't
crimson scroll
¯_(ツ)_/¯
finite plank
XD
finite plank
XDD
crimson scroll
an employee discount, or that 5% on amazon prime card?
what's the fixation with buying from amazon
crimson scroll
i guess if you're super impatient
finite plank
i am
crimson scroll
uhh
well it adds quite a bit imo buying from amazon
everything from amazon uk
crimson scroll
nearly $2k, nice
crimson scroll
add a wifi card
crimson scroll
the tplink ac1300 is a good budget one
or the asus ones, they make progressively more expensive ones
crimson scroll
which one
crimson scroll
seems fine
crimson scroll
also...fine
you're getting a 3600, any board will run it
if you're worried about upgrading in the future, get a b550 or b450 tomahawk max
really solid vrm on those
crimson scroll
i really recommend doing your own research, finding reputable reviewers and making your decisions based on that
I like gamersnexus and the people they collaborate with
finite plank
ive done that but then when i do a parts list i just get violated XD
crimson scroll
?
finite plank
ive done some research and put together a parts list but when i come to posting it and asking if its good, its all wrong
crimson scroll
it can definitely take time, just gotta learn what fits what price bracket and what's suitable for what purpose
like, at a 2k price point, it's a little weird to me you choose such a dinky cooler. there's nothing wrong with it, it's just not super balanced
crimson scroll
it doesn't...but you could get a nice cooler for 60 bucks that will keep it really cool
air cooler
and the fact that we picked a sata m.2 drive over an nvme when the prices are generally pretty comparable
humble oar
i was planning to use the stock cooler with the 7 3700x
low vigil

crimson scroll
You mean motherboard?
low vigil
Idk
low vigil
