No😂

mighty vine
#

Yes

#

What specs do you have?

sand valley
#

Im not a pc specialist... its just a budget pc :P

mighty vine
#

Well yours is better than mine

#

probably

sand valley
#

Its not the best but this i know, RX580 graphic card

mighty vine
#

I have a GTX 750 Ti

living somewhere doesn't mean you know the native language of the region

#

(your roles do though)

sand valley
#

@mighty vineoh lol! 😂

#

@sleek star is that good or bad? Idk😂😂

#

The pc works, runs my games what i like to play so im fine with it lmao

sleek star
#

i mean, a ssd is not a hdd, it doesn't have a platter

#

so in a ssd there is nothing that spins

Whilst waiting for my new ram to arrive can i download some extra free ram somewhere

@compact cove on an AIO or air cooling?

compact cove
#

@wide temple dark rock pro 4 on performance mode (asrock x470 taichi ultimate)

compact cove
#

my husband managed to get an oc of 4375mhz at 1.3875v at a 'stable' 92 C

#

132 W into the cpu package

#

Bad silicon lottery

placid dragon
#

So I fixed my PC (was kinda hoping it was the CPU instead of the mobo so I could upgrade)

marble crow
#

mad

compact cove
#

@unkempt swan it does 4300mhz at 1.32v so its not bad silicon lottery at all, 3900x is only rated for 4300mhz

agile ermine
#

I'd say thats really good to reach 4.3GHz with only 1.32V, I think its more often around 1.35V for that chip

compact cove
#

my r5 2600 does 3.9 at 1.3875v

#

so id say this 3900x is a decent bin

#

bought a new pc with ryzen 7 2700x the day before ryzen 3rd gen came out because i FoRgOt

#

sad

compact cove
#

return it?

wide temple
#

that's the cooler I'm getting 😬

#

Just need to find some fresh stock of the MSI B450I gaming plus AC motherboard

compact cove
#

you will not be able to fit a DRP4 on an mITX mobo.....

wide temple
#

you reckon?

#

I've seen people fit the Noctua NH-D15 on ITX mobos

#

Looks fine to me

compact cove
#

i mean, i tried putting it in my RVZ03, failed miserably 😹

#

and in the big rig they dont clear the ram (dom plats)

wide temple
#

yeah I'm a little concerned about that more than anything else

#

but the Baliistix I have seems to be normal height

compact cove
#

we had to mount the cooler so that it pulls air from the back of the case

#

the front case fans only feed the 1080ti right now

#

hubby is considering a 360mm custom loop for the cpu

compact cove
#

ballistix are fine

#

gskill ripjaws are also fine

#

dom plats are a massive NO

wide temple
#

This is the case I ordered

compact cove
#

funny, we also have a phanteks xD

wide temple
#

It'll be a tight fit for a DRP4 for sure. I'm still debating if I should go for an AIO but there's always that risk

#

:3

#

It's gonna be a huge change from my massive Fractal R4

compact cove
#

enthoo pro here

wide temple
#

Basically I just need a cooler, PSU and a motherboard, then I'm set. I also want an M.2 but that can come later as I picked up a 2TB 2.5" on Prime Day

compact cove
#

cant upload phone pics to discord anymore..... gg discord, gg

wide temple
compact cove
#

i just realized how dusty that looks

#

even tho it was put together last sunday OOF

sand valley
#

Mabye clean it a littlebit

compact cove
#

its on the inside kappa

sand valley
#

then open it and clean it

#

whats the problem

compact cove
#

the thing weighs 40+ kgs

sand valley
#

I know got my self a hightower pc

compact cove
#

i have to unplug everything, take it down from its 'pedestal', clean it, put it back up and reconnect it

sand valley
#

Yes

#

i know

compact cove
#

thats a no from me dogg

sand valley
#

I clean my pc evry month

#

becouse pc with no dust is a pc who keeps cool

compact cove
#

we have a compressor

#

open the side panel and just blast everythin with air

#

still have to take it down tho

sand valley
#

and + i need to do it becouse got not 1 but 3 grafficcards in it and then it get fast hot inside when it it dusty

wide temple
#

haha that's one thing I'm looking forward to, being able to carry my PC again

#

my current build weighs something like 20kg and its huge

sand valley
#

Thats not much weiht

wide temple
sand valley
#

i think if you cary my pc then you brake youre neck and back bone's

#

really to havy to cary

wide temple
#

weight isn't so much the issue

compact cove
#

^ this was in january

wide temple
#

It's the fact that it's just so large in terms of mass

sand valley
#

You lucky iam not home others i showed my one

compact cove
#

rvz03 > node 202

sand valley
#

My one is almost twice bigger than that what stand in the middle

#

But hey watercooling takes alot of space

#

ram cooling to

compact cove
#

cooling ram is so dumb....

sand valley
#

Its usefull

compact cove
#

no its not

#

the rbg on these dom plats are set to full white (255-255-255) and theyre at 34 C

wide temple
#

Water cooling RAM hahaa

sand valley
#

You know if you ram and cpu are between 20 or 40 degrees then youre pc works at is best

#

no not water cooling ram

wide temple
#

Cooling your RAM isn't gonna give you any extra performance unless its running hot due to space constraints/restricted air flow

sand valley
#

Yes and that why i cool it

compact cove
#

ram doesnt throttle until like 75+ C

sand valley
#

Yes but what do you guys do

#

on it

compact cove
#

if full rgb ram stays at ~35 C, i really dont see why anyone would watercool ram

sand valley
#

i dont watercool my ram

#

just normal fan ram cooling

compact cove
#

some airflow is fine

sand valley
#

but then special for ram

compact cove
#

tehnically all parts should have some form of air cooling over them

sand valley
#

yes

#

thats best

compact cove
#

VRM especially

#

especially on a 3900x sitting on an x470

sand valley
#

what about northbridge and south bridge

wide temple
compact cove
#

you do know one of those is integrated in cpus nowadays right?

#

yea Moh, i know that table

#

we got 43 C on the VRMs at full AVX load

#

chipset temp at 'semi-idle' 34 C

#

VRM temp at semi-idle 39 C

sand valley
#

The only part who needs cooling is officel the cpu

#

and the

#

power supply

compact cove
#

cpu, gpu, psu

sand valley
#

i talk about normal pc

#

so standard so motherboard gpu

compact cove
#

APU is a different category

sand valley
#

If you gone talk about gaming pcs for simulations like eurotruck and video rendering and aircraft simulators

compact cove
sand valley
compact cove
#

fan 2 speed 7600rpm lmao

sand valley
#

yes got my booster on

compact cove
#

more rpms than most cars

sand valley
#

yes

#

got my left fan speed at max for my gpu

compact cove
#

is that 32 W power usage for the whole laptop?

sand valley
#

only for cpu

compact cove
#

oh good, cuz here im at 49 W while the cpu is idling

wide temple
#

My VRMs are gonna run quite hot on an ITX build Feelsbadman

#

That's pretty hot for idle, did you drop the idle voltage?

compact cove
#

its on stock atm

#

voltage drops to as low as 0.9v

#

keep in mind on an mITX youre gonna have 4+2 VRM (with no doublers)

#

while on this taichi ultimate theres 7+2 (with doubles)

wide temple
#

The mobo I'm looking at doesn't use doublers

#

6 phases with a 60A power stage

compact cove
#

exactly

#

out of those 6 phases, 2 are for soc

#

only 4 are for vcore

#

i have 14 for vcore

wide temple
compact cove
#

youre going for 3700x right?

wide temple
#

yes

#

the box is behind me right now

compact cove
#

might work, might not

wide temple
#

It better work LUL

compact cove
#

65w cpu vs 105w cpu

#

8c vs 12c

wide temple
#

The B450I gaming plus AC has the best VRMs of all ITX motherboards

compact cove
#

is it Buildzoid aproved?

wide temple
#

at least from my research anyway

#

Yes

#

Mentioned in the first comment

compact cove
#

cuz im pretty sure Buildzoid said the x470 fatality itx has the best vrms on mITX

#

k nvm then

#

its still a 4 phase vcore vrm 😹

wide temple
#

won't get much for VRMs on an ITX board though

#

as long as I can get a decent overclock, I'll be happy with it

compact cove
#

i know theres a board thats 6+2

#

but the rest of the board is trash

wide temple
#

I just want to push my RAM to 3600MHz CL14 and push the CPU as high as it'll go

#

or I could wait for the B550 ITX boards, but those could be months away still

#

especially considering that MSI are releasing MAX versions of the B450 with the 32MB BIOS chip

compact cove
#

b550 isnt coming out until 2020

wide temple
#

I thought it was scheduled for Q4 of 2019?

compact cove
#

i know it was Q1 2020

#

Q4 2019 is threadripper zen2

wide temple
#

hm

compact cove
#

and 3950x

wide temple
#

that CPU ain't for me hahah

compact cove
#

3900x trashes the 2920x so kappa

wide temple
#

I don't see any MAX variant of the B450i on MSI's website either :c

#

Initially I wanted to go for the ROG B450/X470 but the VRMs aren't good and its also really expensive

compact cove
#

asrock for anything amd

#

yes, the bios is stupidly complicated, but they are damn good boards

wide temple
#

shame their ITX boards aren't

#

3 power phases lol

compact cove
#

im very satisfied with my b450 fatality

#

itx/ac*

wide temple
#

what CPU are you running on it

compact cove
#

2600

#

3.9 oc

wide temple
#

ah, so its not really that important then

compact cove
#

wraith spire*

#

wraith stealth is for office users.....

wide temple
#

I could still switch to an mATX config, but I'd have to send back the case I ordered

#

problem is finding something that's relatively small, I just don't want a huge case like the Fractal R4 again

compact cove
#

mini tower that doesnt support matx? what?!

wide temple
#

I need to decide in the next few hours because the eBay code I use expires soon

compact cove
#

oof

#

i recommend rvz03/node202 for slin console-like cases

wide temple
#

I prefer a tower

compact cove
#

i mean... you can try a cube

#

evolve matx is massive for a mini tower

#

also, anythin with glass is gonna be HEAVY AF

wide temple
#

true, I feel like I'm taking a risk going with tempered glass as well

compact cove
#

you dont need a glass panel to see bits inside.....

#

theres a lot of red rgb light coming out of my pc

#

and it has 0 glass on it

wide temple
#

I don't even see my PC, it sits inside a cabinet LUL

#

I only bought it because it was the same price as the normal version

compact cove
#

Moh... smack yourself cuz im too far away

wide temple
#

though I'm hoping that I'll be able to put it somewhere prominently rather than inside a cabinet somewhere

#

hence why I went with it

compact cove
#

S4 mini maybe? lul

wide temple
#

The Evolv ATX is 45.3 cm in height, the R4 is 46.4 cm in height. That's huge E_MonkaGiga

compact cove
#

rvz03 is ..... gimme a sec

wide temple
#

that's way too small lol

#

I looked that up earlier, again, too small for me

compact cove
#

Dimension382mm (W) x 105mm (H) x 364mm (D), 14.6 Liters

wide temple
#

I want a decent tower case that isn't obscenely huge

compact cove
#

deepcool matrexx?

wide temple
#

48 cm height

compact cove
#

cube..... get a damn cube

#

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

wide temple
#

┬─┬ ノ( ゜-゜ノ)

#

that case looks really nice though

#

you might be wondering why I don't want to go with a large case. I got the R4 last time for upgrades, but, I never upgraded anything. All I changed was the GPU and added some fans + wireless card

compact cove
#

as i said, cube

#

node 304

#

#

#

idk, theres a lot of nice cube cases

wide temple
#

you couldn't even pay me to touch a thermaltake case

#

they're shysters

compact cove
#

thetis are nice

#

ive seen them 'live'

wide temple
#

ah, in a store or at an expo?

compact cove
#

wide temple
#

#

39.3mm in height 👀

compact cove
#

so about the same as my raven

which is fairly tall

wide temple
#

Phanteks ITX:
230 mm x 375 mm x 395 mm (W x H x D)

NZXT H400i:
W: 210mm H: 393mm D: 421mm (without feet)
W: 210mm H: 417mm D: 421mm (with feet)

#

Damn that's really tempting...

compact cove
#

would rather have the phanteks than the nzxt

wide temple
#

the phanteks definitely looks better

#

but any other reason why?

compact cove
#

easier to work in

#

built in rgb

wide temple
#

true that, the NZXT uses CAM which I absolutely do not want on my PC

compact cove
#

icue > cam

wide temple
#

not only is it a resource hog, it's also very heavy on the data collection side

#

what would you pick out of the two?
stick to the Phanteks ITX or go for the H200 with an mATX board

compact cove
#

considering the 3700x

#

id go matx but not with the h200

wide temple
#

there's no other decent mATX tower cases I can find :c

compact cove
#

cube

#

or a very small atx tower

wide temple
#

no cube

"small atx tower" bitchplease

no ryzen for you (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

pls no sadcat

compact cove

get a 3600 and you can put it in anythin you want

wide temple

I already bought it, I ain't sending it back

plus I want 8c/16t (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

compact cove
#

dont send it back, resell it kappa

wide temple
#

I actually could, seeing as I bought it at a discount

#

or maybe this

#

but I want something different 😭

wide temple

Ye it's just fat

wide temple
#

inb4 there's a chemical explosion due to the battery exploding bruh

pastel lodge
#

lol

#

its fineeeee

wide temple
#

It really isn't though (assuming the battery is bulging, not sure what the PIxel 2 looks like like from the back). As the battery will be exposing toxic fumes which should never be inhaled

pastel lodge
#

only if damaged

#

otherwise it should not be giving out fumes

#

since phone would never pass to be sold

wide temple
#

That's the thing, you're taking a risk using a battery like that as it could puncture at any time or at risk of a thermal runaway

@wide temple apologies for the ping, are you looking at a new pc or?

#

@compact cove wow nice, i wanted the ryzen 7 3800x but couldn't afford it

#

153 fps on the test

spiral yew
#

where are you getting this benchmarks from?

sand valley
#

Cinebench

#

my cpu is at 4.2ghz, not 3.6

compact cove
#

@sand valley 3800x is useless compared to 3700x

sand valley
#

I’ll see what I can afford

mighty vine
#

@compact cove Why?

compact cove
#

because youd pay 50 euros extra for 100mhz

#

3800x is only useful for competitive oc

mighty vine
#

Thanks

agile ermine
#

3700X isn't really worse than the 3800X for overclocking, maybe you will only see a difference under nitrogen...

wide temple
#

@compact cove notbad what's the idle voltages like?
Also regarding my case situation. I'm sending the Phanteks ITX back and likely opting for a Fractal Define Mini C or Meshify C. Boring I know, but eh, its functional and I don't really look at my PC that often.

@sand valley yes I am, bought most of the parts already. 3700X, 32GB RAM (3200 CL14, will be overclocking), 2TB MX500 SSD, 1TB MP510 M.2 SSD, Dark Rock Pro 4 cooler, RM650x PSU. I bought a case already but sending it back as I decided against ITX. Just waiting for the MSI MAX mobos to become available then I'll be ready to build.

sand valley
#

oh. ok that didnt work. pog?

#

there we go

#

get the b450 tomahawk 😄

wide temple
#

I saw it LUL too many repeated letters

sand valley
#

great motherboard

#

shhhh moh monkaEyes

wide temple
#

I'm waiting for the B450M Mortar MAX

#

As the Mini C is an mATX case

sand valley
#

i was surprised when my b450 came

#

luckily i had an atx case already lul

wide temple
#

ye originally I was going for an ITX build but I realised I'm making too many compromises with little space saved anyway

sand valley
#

itx is way too small for what you're wanting

sand valley
#

mATX or ATX would do you

wide temple
#

I used this for a comparison

#

My current case is a massive Fractal R4 and as much as I love it, its just too big and didn't ever make full use of it in terms of upgrades etc

sand valley
#

i have a xigmatek frontliner, its actually a really good case

#

snapped its front leg by accident though Kappa

compact cove
#

@wide temple 3900x stock voltages go randomly from 0.9v to 1.48v

sand valley
#

the case has 5 case fan options and comes with 3, but i replaced them all for rgb fans lel

compact cove
#

hubby locked it down to a solid 1.31v

wide temple
#

😁

#

I'm gonna get some Chromax NF-A14 fans. I just need to find a decent PWM controller to hook them up to

compact cove
#

we have be quiet silent wings 3 kappa

wide temple
#

I don't think I'll even need them tbh... the Mini C comes with some fans (which are ok), but I want to replace them

compact cove
#

we switched the front and back fans with phanteks black fans

#

be quiet are top and bottom

wide temple
#

do you use a PWM controller at all?

compact cove
#

pwm hub

wide temple
#

or just a splitter

#

which one?

compact cove
#

case one

wide temple
#

ah, the Mini C doesn't come with one holosad

compact cove
#

case is a phanteks entho pro m

#

you can buy the hub separately too

#

its like 15 euros

wide temple
#

ye I was gonna buy the Phanteks one as it looks the "cleanest" whilst also being moderately priced

#

£15.95 here

compact cove
#

it also allows you to have 3 pin fans

#

so you dont need slightly more expensive 4 pin fans

#

the controller itself is pwm

#

fans dont need to be

wide temple
#

ye that's true, but I'm still gonna get the A14's as they're the best available

#

plus they don't look awful with the chromax option

compact cove
#

just get phanteks ones 😛

wide temple
#

but are they the same in terms of performance?

compact cove
#

Phanteks PH-F140SP Black

#

almost the same as the be quiet ones we have

#

different sound pitch

wide temple
#

hmmm

compact cove
#

we replaced the 200mm on the front with dual 140

wide temple
#

will have to look at the prices and see how much it is. I just want to get the best fans possible and everyone says the A14's are the best

compact cove
#

the x25 ones?

wide temple
#

these

compact cove
#

not the best

wide temple
#

tell me more eyesFlipped

compact cove
#

the best, ever, period

#

expensive AF for that matter ....

#

30 euro a piece here....

wide temple
#

but... it's brown

compact cove
#

i know

#

we are waiting for chromax versions

#

noctua said they will come later this year

wide temple
#

I'll have to give it some more thought and do a bit more research I guess

#

I just want the MAX mobos to come into stock already...

compact cove
#

but for starters, these phanteks ones are great

#

x470 taichi ultimate

#

how cheap can you get an x470 taichi?

#

(non ultimate)

wide temple
#

£195 pokerface

compact cove
#

i forgot which cpu youre getting

#

3600 or 3700x?

wide temple
#

3700x

#

already bought it

compact cove
#

then x470

#

dont waste money on x570

#

dont cheap out on b450

wide temple
#

from all the info I've seen, it doesn't really matter for overclocking peepoShrug

#

as long as it has decent VRMs

#

I don't need the extra features of the X platform

compact cove
#

high end b450 will cost as much as an x470

#

unless you want to go mATX

#

then an MSI Bazooka would be awesome

wide temple
#

Mortar seems to be the best in terms of spec

#

According to this anyway

#

The B450M Mortar is going for about ~£90 roughly

#

Bazooka V2 is slightly cheaper, but I read that the voltage regulators are worse than the original Bazooka

sand valley
#

The b450 tomahawk is like £90-100

#

It does me really well for my 3600

wide temple
#

It's ATX though >:(

#

I'm limited to the Gaming Plus or Mortar, the latter being the better option

#

I just want the MAX variant to come into stock. I'm that desperate I'm even considering to import it LUL

Nah, I'm sticking to mATX. ATX is too large for me and I never made full use of my current ATX case. I wanted to go ITX but would have made too many compromises with that

#

@unkempt swan Seems to be MSI boards that are the most affected, not sure what's going on but they still haven't figured it out. Loads of reports of users with multiple failed boots, having to reflash the BIOS, etc.

#

Most annoying part is that the MSI boards are the best in terms of bang for buck

#

@halcyon rune that's actually really well priced... I'd go for it if that's what you're after

halcyon rune
#

ok

unkempt swan
#

@halcyon rune go for it

halcyon rune
#

ya im going i need pay 470 for pc because someone alredy wanted it for 450 and now need find graphics card for that

gilded stone
#

mATX is a good size

#

My current computer is an mATX minitower Dell

spiral yew
#

good luck trying to upgrade anything except for the gpu

gilded stone
#

Oh, I've upgraded more than that.

night pine
#

Atx is better, bigger. And as we all know bigger is better 🍌

bright parcel
#

anyone know how to sort the RGB lighting on my G203 gaming mouse

#

its a logitech one

mighty vine
#

Logitech Gaming Software?

#

Or the specific one for your mouse

bright parcel
#

i got the gaming software i just dont know how to change the colours

mighty vine
#

There should be a mouse at the bottom menu

bright parcel
#

there is G HUB

hollow relic
#

Check the manuals book, or just type help on Logitech Search Tab

bright parcel
#

okay

bright parcel
#

would help if i got the logitech options software.....

hollow relic
#

Yeah. Sorry never have a gaming mouse. For me it's not much worth it. So just help with the basic knowledge.

bright parcel
#

okay cool thanks 😃

lament zealot
#

What in my OBS settings would be screwing with the saturation or what ever it is???

halcyon rune
#

idk but it looks cooler tho

lament zealot
#

Maybe, but I don't like it.

#

Just want it the way it is in my game.

#

OH

#

It was because I had "Allow Transparency" setting on.

#

🤦

halcyon rune
#

Lol

#

Can someone tell me why when i put lights on my internet speed goes to 2kbps and when i turn them off then my internet speed is 50mbps

#

My brain cant process this

hollow relic
#

What lights ?

#

Inside game ?

halcyon rune
#

No irl

#

First time i saw this because i got xbox one x and i looked the internet speed its much faster when lights is off

hollow relic
#

Ohh I see, But what lights ?

#

On Xbox/router/etc ?

halcyon rune
#

I tired on rgb and led light and they slow my internet speed i saw this on xbox on pc idk what wrong with that internet it goes 2.6mbps max

hollow relic
#

Ohh maybe it's interupt the power consumption. Like old computer/cheap power supply and front USB in PC not working

halcyon rune
#

Idk

#

Ok when i close my door then my internet speed slows down too

#

What the hell is going on

hollow relic
#

That's happen caused the signal got blocked, like window or some mirror/glass

#

But for the lights still figured it out

halcyon rune
#

But the router is 3 rooms away and where door is its like 4 rooms away if you understand what im trying to say

#

And my pc have now brand new 550w corsair psu and my internet stick this is on back the case

spiral yew
#

Ahhh your using WiFi right?

hollow relic
#

That's effect too, even your router have high band antenna and strength.

spiral yew
#

If you're using WiFi then there will be signal interference

#

Either you have a shitty router or a shitty WiFi card

halcyon rune
#

But both are good or what we bought of telia best wifi card and router what they god like 6months ago

spiral yew
#

Oh you're in Sweden

halcyon rune
#

Idk or my room is bunker here gets veryhot and otjer rooms wifi works normally

#

Im in finland

#

Oof

spiral yew
#

I've only heard of telia due to a streamer that I watch lives in Sweden and had net issues with that company

halcyon rune
#

Oof

spiral yew
#

Closing a door should not cause that much interference

hollow relic
#

Nope, but glass door should interference. And some of thick wood.

halcyon rune
#

I have wooden door and its like 2cm wide

spiral yew
#

My router is downstairs in the basement and I can be upstairs and still get a good signal

hollow relic
#

It should fine

spiral yew
#

That door would have to be pretty thick and have to be solid wood and not the plywood doors they use now

mighty vine
#

Maybe the light bulb is interfering?

halcyon rune
#

This is fullwooden if this would be plywood it would be broken rn

mighty vine
#

is it an old light bulb?

halcyon rune
#

Nope i have rgb and led light tired both and same happends

spiral yew
#

If you knock on the door and don't hear an echo then the door is solid wood

mighty vine
#

Maybe the wires cause interference when the electricity is going trough

hollow relic
#

That's RGB from your PC/keyboard ?

#

Maybe @mighty vine

#

I ever heard that before

spiral yew
#

Sounds like shitty wiring

mighty vine
#

Electro magnetic fields

#

and stuff

hollow relic
#

Not shitty wiring but the magnetic field

mighty vine
#

thats why i asked if it was a old light bulb

halcyon rune
#

Its solid wood

mighty vine
#

@halcyon rune Is your lightbulb the fancy RGB ones?

spiral yew
#

Yea if it's not wired correctly you can have all kinds of electromagnetic interference

halcyon rune
#

I have fancy rgb and i got like normal too

mighty vine
#

🤔

#

I have one too but it does nothing to my WiFi

spiral yew
#

I have 2 RGB strips and RGB light panels that don't affect my WiFi

#

But my pc and consoles are hardwired cause I'm close enough to the router

mighty vine
#

you can turn the lights on with the on/off switch on the wall and turn them off with your remote?

#

Could you try that?

hollow relic
#

It should not interference if the RGB coming not from the PC it shelf like keyboard, mouse, or etc

mighty vine
#

He has a RGB Light bulb

spiral yew
#

I still thinks it's from poor wiring

mighty vine
#

So technically he could turn them on with the wall on/off thing and turn them off with the remote to the light bulb. That way he can check if it is the wiring or the light bulb

#

If he checks that and the wifi slows down it's the wiring

#

if the WiFi speed is fast its the light bubl

#

easy as that

spiral yew
#

If it's the wiring there isn't much you can do

mighty vine
#

That is my opinion and something I would do

#

But you can try it

hollow relic
#

Yeah, same opinion like me

spiral yew
#

Re-wiring a house would cost a fortune

mighty vine
#

yeah

#

opening the ceiling and rewiring everything and closing it down would be very expensive very fast

#

if it is the wiring he could move his PC and Xbox to another room

hollow relic
#

Or it's fine using your house electric but using small stabilizers device before you plug the PC. Like me

spiral yew
#

Not just the ceiling but also the walls

mighty vine
#

^^^^

#

@hollow relic What?

#

are those?

spiral yew
#

Frenzy if it's the wiring it won't matter where they go

mighty vine
#

it could be that the wiring is messed up in one place only

spiral yew
#

Most of the time there is more than one strand going to the breaker box

mighty vine
#

🤷

#

If he tries what I said earlier we could help him determine what it is caused by

#

Im off for a CSGO match

#

So i will not be aviable for 45 min?

spiral yew
#

Depending on the size of the house and number of outlets there could be at least 20 to 30 wires going into the breaker box

hollow relic
#

@mighty vine electric stabilizer

spiral yew
#

You mean a voltage regulator?

hollow relic
#

Same like that, but electric stabilizer more like UPS device

spiral yew
#

That's what they are

#

They are called voltage regulators

hollow relic
#

It's different on my cpountry

#

*Country

#

Voltage regulator you need connect it on wired. But electric stabilizer just need to plug in like generator/UPS.

spiral yew
#

UPS do regulate the voltage

hollow relic
#

But it store the power too, and I don't fine good one for me with my budget

#

I just need electric stabilizer.

spiral yew
hollow relic
#

More bigger

hollow relic
#

Yeah like that

spiral yew
#

Ahhh on the you posted it says automatic voltage regulator

hollow relic
#

Shit, you're right

lament zealot
spiral yew
#

What is your resolution?

sinful monolith
#

lower the bitrate

lament zealot
#

1080p

#

@sinful monolith any recommendations for the bitrate?

spiral yew
#

Yea lower the bitrate

sinful monolith
#

1080p 30fps?

spiral yew
#

What is it at now?

lament zealot
#

1080p 60fps

#

50,000kbps

hollow relic
#

Wow, that's huge fps

#

And bitrate

sinful monolith
#

probably want around 10 000 kbps minimum

spiral yew
#

50k bitrate that's crazy

lament zealot
#

want it to come out good 👌

#

lol

sinful monolith
#

50k is very reasonable for a 1080p60 recording

lament zealot
#

Will putting it down to 10k bitrate lower the quality drastically?

sinful monolith
#

yes

lament zealot
#

Well that's a deal breaker for me.

#

I want it to look not shit.

sinful monolith
#

bitrate, resolution and fps are the primary things that affect the filesize

#

it won't look bad at 10k, but you're probably able to tell the difference between that and 50k

#

experiment with it

#

are you using x264?

lament zealot
#

encoder?

sinful monolith
#

yes

lament zealot
#

No, using the NVENC H.264

sinful monolith
#

all you can really do is experiment with lower bitrate (and/or lower fps/resolution)

lament zealot
#

k

#

Luckally when I put the video through Adobe Premiere Pro the file size goes down massively.

sinful monolith
#

yeah, that doesn't have to be real time, so it can spend a lot more resources to get better quality in smaller size

wide temple
#

😩 tfw you have almost every component except the motherboard to build your new PC

compact cove
#

@wide temple does almost include the case? kappa

wide temple
#

Oi Kappa

compact cove
#

oh?

#

which one?

wide temple
#

I sent the ITX back, planning on the Define C TG

#

Will probably just buy it on Amazon with Prime

compact cove
#

you twat 😦

wide temple
#

hey 😦

#

no bulli

compact cove
#

thats an R6 with a mesh fp

#

Fractal played you like a fiddle 😦

wide temple
#

You mean the Meshify C MIni? That's the one with the Mesh front

#

I don't think I'll be getting that, it'll need cleaning too often and I'm lazy

compact cove
#

wait, im confused

#

which one is the define c then? 🤔

#

oooooh

wide temple
#

Meshify C Mini

compact cove
#

tall boy R6 with glass side panel

wide temple
#

Ye I'm gonna get the one with TG, but I feel like I'll end up regretting it when it gets smashed KappaLUL

mighty vine
#

I like the Fractal one :)

compact cove
#

^ define C TG

wide temple
#

Dat be the one

mighty vine
#

Damn

#

The fractal front panel is lit

compact cove
#

oh btw Moh

#

we got rgb kappa

wide temple
#

I'm kind turned off of huge ATX cases now, too much space wasted and I never upgrade anything significant to make use of the case space Sadness

#

Get out E_MonkaGun

compact cove
#

thats high tower btw 😹

#

i present to you, Vader

wide temple
#

That's actually pretty tasteful, me likey likey

#

G203 mouse as well?

compact cove
#

pic is trash cuz phones cant take pics in the dark....

#

g413 + g102

wide temple
#

o

#

Looks like the G203 to me thisisfine

compact cove
#

same design

#

different sensor

wide temple
#

o

#

you're not gonna try to convince me to go cube again are you KappaPeak

compact cove
#

no? 🤔

#

but i could convince you to go SFF kappa

wide temple
#

oh pls

#

SFF would be the dream with a custom cooling loop

compact cove
#

my Raven needs a new gpu

#

i might go 2070 Super

wide temple
#

I'm sticking to my 1070 FTW, NVIDIA latest offerings aren't really compelling at the price they're sold at Sadness

#

AMD pls compete in the high end GPU segment again pls 🙏

compact cove
#

im not getting anything until i see AIB 5700s

#

cuz i was rly considering a 5700 (non XT)

wide temple
#

I wouldn't even consider that until they sort out all the driver probs

#

I say that as I look to get a B450 board known to have BIOS issues LULW

compact cove
#

which?

wide temple
#

all the MSI boards pretty much

#

sucks because they have the best VRMs

compact cove
#

i wouldnt get an MSI am4 board.....

#

msi for gpu? yes

#

msi for mobo? hell no

wide temple
#

But all the other mobos suck in terms of feature set or price

#

GIgabyte mobos have crap VRMs

#

ASUS mobos are expensive AF

#

BIOSTAR I don't even dare consider

#

ASRock VRMS suck too (except for the Taichi, but again, price comes into factor)

compact cove
#

i have a fatality in my SFF

#

if you say it sucks i will chip the paint off your truck

wide temple
#

😦

#

According to this, yes it does suck

compact cove
#

i wasnt joking

wide temple
#

😭

#

pls no bulli

compact cove
#

also boy

#

it can handle stock 3900x

wide temple
#

"Stock" being the keyword

compact cove
#

3800x oc

wide temple
#

Though you're probably right, VRMs don't matter that much with Ryzen 3xxx due to chips being binned pretty tightly anyway..

compact cove
#

and i definitely wouldnt go more than 3600x in a SFF case

wide temple
#

They don't seem to be great overclockers, maybe it might change with future batches

compact cove
#

actually, 3700x

#

since its 65w xD

wide temple
#

That's what I have baka

compact cove
#

hmm, a 3700x and a 2060 super

#

time to wreck Moh with a smaller build than his

wide temple
#

Not anymore sad

#

I'll go "average" this time around, maybe in the future i'll go smol

compact cove
#

tbh i was even considering a 1660ti

wide temple
#

even though mATX is becoming rare these days FeelsBadMan

#

there's only like 2 X570 mATX boards

compact cove
#

since i only care about 1080p 75fps

wide temple
#

FreeSync monitor?

compact cove
#

yep

wide temple
#

Not bad

#

I don't think I could go below 120Hz again for gaming

compact cove
#

rx590 was already getting capped in Div2 on max settings

wide temple
#

so what do you think to the Define C TG Mini?

#

you didn't seem too happy 😦

compact cove
#

kinda tall and short (?) for an mATX

#

short as in lenght

wide temple
#

Compared to the R4 it's a lot smaller

#

😏

compact cove
#

who said that?!

wide temple
#

🙊

compact cove
#

did you delete it as i was editing it? lul

wide temple
#

nope, I didn't do anything monkaW

compact cove
#

uuuuh tell me youre not jokin

wide temple
#

oh, it got deleted by the bot due too many caps blobcatjoy

compact cove
#

oh, phew

wide temple
compact cove
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

wide temple
compact cove
#

anyway, get some rgb strips for it

wide temple
#

If I ever put the PC somewhere I can see it, I will

compact cove
#

on the desk, thats why youre getting mATX

wide temple
#

nuhuh, it's going inside my desk, but that is likely to change in the next 12 months or so

compact cove
#

if you put it in the 'closed door desk' i will play the worlds smallest violin when it gets toasty kappa

wide temple
#

That's exactly where it's going 😹

#

My current build has been fine in that

compact cove
#

i mean, my SFF sits at ~70 C in games

#

and thats a 3.9 oc on a 2600

#

that sits in an open space

wide temple
#

I'll have to check what mine runs at tomorrow, but I think its around the same temps tbh

#

Helps that it's right near the window which is always slightly open to let some air in

compact cove
#

the 3900x runs 50 C idle

wide temple
#

All of the 3rd gens run that high don't they? because the idle voltage is something like 1.5v

compact cove
#

70-80 with 4-5 cores loaded

#

95 ish with all cores loaded

#

even with a fixed voltage..... there is no fixed voltage

wide temple
#

monkaX 95c

compact cove
#

i mean.... 12 cores, overclocked, air cooling

sand valley
#

My 3rd gen doesn’t run that hot

#

I’ve seen 40-45c at idle, 60-75 under load

#

Spikes up to 80 now and then

#

Air cooled

#

Moh since you live close let me build your pc Kapp

compact cove
#

@wide temple just ordered a new gpu for my sff

wide temple
#

owo what's this?

sand valley
#

UWU

#

I think I’m happy with my 1060

#

Pairs well with my 3600

#

Might get a 2070 Pepega

compact cove
#

@wide temple vega56 from sapphire (with guaranteed samsung memory)

#

inb4 vega64 bios mod and oc+uv tuning

wide temple
compact cove
#

2070 raw performance for just a bit over 200 euros

wide temple
#

only twice the power draw right?

compact cove
#

depends

#

people say they managed to bring it down to 230w

#

even with the powerplay tables

#

i have an overclocked 2600

#

so i doubt ill wreck the shit off my corsair 600w 80+ gold psu

wide temple
#

still a pretty hefty card tho

compact cove
#

cpu itself goes to like 90w

#

even if the card pulls 300w, ill be fine

wide temple
#

aye, I'd be more worried about the electricity bills blobcatjoy

compact cove
#

not worried about that

#

we only pay 20 euros a month on the light bill

wide temple
#

whoa, electricity must be cheap in Romania then 👀

compact cove
#

its pretty normal 🤔

#

keep in mind that the 'big rig' runs 24/7

#

and thats a 750w psu

#
  • 3 monitors + gigantic speakers
wide temple
#

It won't be pulling much at idle though

compact cove
#

cpu pulls 50w at idle on the big boy

#

133w at full load

wide temple
#

I gotta get me one of those kill-a-watt things to check how much mine pulls currently

compact cove
wide temple
#

Idk how accurate it is tho

compact cove
#

more accurate than hwinfo64 when its not updated lul

wide temple
compact cove
#

im off to night shift, take care Moh 👋

wide temple
#

have fun 02Wave

cunning flax
#

is it worth getting a 2060 rtx

remote estuary
#

The "Super" range is out, so consider that an option

compact cove
#

for RTX get a 2060 Super

#

for non-RTX get a 5700 or Vega56

placid dragon
#

But if like emulation don't buy AMD

#

I know some people who made that mistake xD

sand valley
#

yea dont get an amd graphics card pls heh

mighty vine
#

What's bad about them?

hollow relic
#

Idk

#

But for me, I got some reason on it for workshop/extreme temperature used.

#

But for the processor high classed is I have no problem with it. Just for graphics card and low end processor.

unkempt swan
#

@wide temple trye about refreshrate

#

I had to work for 3 days on a laptop on uni project and didn't manage to get used back to 60 Hz

halcyon rune
#

Ok can someone tell why my wont turn on i had 450w and changed to 550w psu when i have new one fans spinss less than 1 sec and when i change old it works normally

agile ermine
#

Thats called semi-active cooling

#

Welcome in 2019 😬

#

The fans will only spin if your psu reaches a certain temperature

#

Otherwise it doesnt spin, to make less noise

mighty vine
#

^^^^

hollow relic
#

Or you can just set on BIOS to keep spinning around like truck's radiator on Outback. Hohhohoohhohooh, some of gaming rig have that settings on active mode so don't need on BIOS setting.

agile ermine
#

Not sure you can tune your psu's fan in the bios, as it isn't plugged on the motherboard

compact cove
#

@wide temple so my vega56 came.....

wide temple
#

:o

#

tell me more

compact cove
#

theres a problem

#

the gpu assembly mount of my Raven case doesnt allow mode than a dual slot card

#

the vega is 2.3 slots....

wide temple
#

that was one of my worries with going ITX, not being able to use a card bigger than 2 slots

compact cove
#

so my husband talked to the guy that bought my old rx590

#

and he agreed to swap cards + pay a bit extra for the vega

#

so ill be getting my 590 back 😐

#

the baby blue rx590

wide temple
#

you can't return it?

compact cove
#

i bought it on 'lease', cancelling is hella complicated and i cant be bothered to do it....

wide temple
#

what how does that work? I've never heard of leasing on computer parts before..

hollow relic
#

Same

compact cove
#

you can buy quite literally anything here in up to 6 installments

hollow relic
#

Is that include like CPU/RAM ?

compact cove
#

every single bit of a pc

mighty vine
#

Hdd lol

hollow relic
#

Dang, that's great.

wide temple
#

You have to return it after the lease period?

compact cove
#

all electronics and home appliances to

hollow relic
#

What's kind people use HDD from lease XD

compact cove
#

no.... you pay it in full, but not cash down

mighty vine
#

Idk

wide temple
#

Oh, so that's not leasing, but financing

compact cove
#

instead of paying 200 euros for a new gpu, i pay 33.33 euros for 6 months

#

yea, wrong term 🤔

wide temple
#

Leasing is when you pay for something in monthly instalment and return it after the lease period 😛

#

I would say I'd be quite surprised if someone offered that, cos I'd consider taking it up

compact cove
#

i would lease gpus if i could xD

#

swap gpu to new ones every year

wide temple
#

A lot of people would

compact cove
#

but yea, financing/installments

#

so, my pc will be back into its original (january) state in a few days.....

wide temple
#

Could be worse, you could have a bunch of components sitting in boxes waiting for a motherboard ._.

compact cove
#

oof

wide temple
#

Debating if I should risk going for the non MAX variant board or going for the ASRock B450M Steel Legend mobo

#

Looks nice, has decent features, but seems to be plagued with BIOS issues too

agile ermine
#

You should wait, every boards do have some bios issues

compact cove
#

asrock dont cheap out on bios chips tho.....

#

but then again, id still go for x470

gilded stone
#

X series if you're going for a 6 core and up

#

unless the B series board has a good power delivery system

compact cove
#

hes got a 3700x

gilded stone
#

X470 then

mighty vine
#

Is the 2400 G a good option?

gilded stone
#

yes

compact cove
#

3400G*

mighty vine
#

Sorry

compact cove
#

much more stable

mighty vine
#

Is it good?

compact cove
#

without a gpu it can play 1080p low 40-50fps

mighty vine
#

And with a GTX 750Ti?

compact cove
#

might as well get a 3600 (non-x) instead

#

or a 2600 if they are massively discounted

gilded stone
#

The 3400G's built in GPU is probably on par with a 750 Ti.

compact cove
#

amd said its on par with an rx550

mighty vine
#

🤔

#

Atm I am not up to date with the pc world

#

:/

compact cove
#

i am cuz of my nerd husband

mighty vine
#

That is lucky

#

2 people that love tech

compact cove
#

cant be a cheater if hes at the pc 24/7

mighty vine
#

And each other

#

Lmao

compact cove
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

mighty vine
#

But I guess I should look at the prices then

#

Is the 3600 much more expensive than the 3400G?

compact cove
#

should be close

#

the 2600 is slightly slower than the 3600

#

but it should be at a massive drop in price

#

since its 'last gen' now

mighty vine
#

But everything will be better than a AMD Athlon X3 450/350

#

:P

compact cove
#

last upgrade we went from i7 6700k to R9 3900x

#

and the difference is huge

mighty vine
#

Going from a 3 core to a 4 core should be a huge difference too

#

I think

#

And hyperthreading?

compact cove
#

hyperthread is like +40%

mighty vine
#

:0

compact cove
#

check your local prices

mighty vine
#

Maybe I could stream properly

compact cove
#

if 2600 is cheap enough, get one

#

6c/12t

mighty vine
#

Whoa

compact cove
#

i have it in my mini pc

mighty vine
#

Also is the Xiaomi Mi9 T a good phone for €380?

compact cove
#

i had a Mi Pro for 2 years

#

cant recommend Xiaomi to anyone..... software support is 0

mighty vine
#

Huawei P smart Z?

#

B series motherboards are fine for 8 core chips, the 3700X is only a 65W TDP chip

#

I don't have any plans to stick a 39xx series chip in there in the future either

If I made a list of components on pcpartpicker.com would someone mind watching the setup to see if it is good?

What do you think it's better, LG V40 or Samsung Galaxy Note 9 ?

#

For android based on duty work

But I never saw the V40 thp

So I can't compare

LG phones aren't all that good compared to other offerings tbh

#

the V series has good DACs but that's about it

#

I am planning on buying a Huawei P smart Z or the Xiaomi Mi 9 T

#

The price difference is €100

Just the phone

The flight only took like an hour and 15 minutes because LA to Sacramento isn't very far on a plane.
