well i got a lower end i7 and i use northing of it

peak oracle
#

so.....

#

Cuz I wanna kinda future proof it

wraith crystal
#

if i was you i would get something with 16gb of ram a gtx 1070 ti and a high end i5 or low-end i7

#

thats what i would say^^^

peak oracle
#

Link me one

#

And I'll try to find it

wraith crystal
#

if my option the case does not matter

peak oracle
#

Yeah case doesn't matter

#

It's the insides

wraith crystal
#

as long as it has good air flow

#

yeah

#

ill try to find one

peak oracle

you could go tripple 1080s..

#

thats overkill

#

lmao

peak oracle

well it would normally be the left side that has opens to see everything

#

oh lmao

peak oracle
#

The left side has nothing

#

Lmaoaoaoaoao

wraith crystal
#

well if your looking at the back it would be the right side...

elfin wolf

I'd suggest to not comments like this @wraith crystal

wraith crystal
#

...

#

are you not aloud to have fun?

#

is that a rule?

peak oracle
#

well it's technically a PG-13 discord

#

so

wraith crystal
#

13**

#

that means everyone is not 6

peak oracle
wraith crystal
#

meaning everyone shouldn't be 6 year olds when that comes up

elfin wolf

When I'm watching youtube my audio is out of sync

#

how can I fix it?

wraith crystal
#

reload the page?

#

if not its the video...

distant sparrow
#

but

#

I reloaded the page

#

tried it with different videos

#

tried it with an other browser

#

and still didnt work

#

it only worked on my TV

brittle mountain

browser hardware acceleration

light palm
#

are these worth a go if I don’t have an option of Ethernet? I have good wifi speeds but when it comes to the pc it’s just really slow when downloading games, etc

wide temple
#

Depends on the electrical wiring in your house and how good it is

light palm
#

what’s my best overall option if ethernet is out of the equation

#

obviously it won’t be as good as Ethernet.

wide temple
#

Either take a gamble with Powerline adapters, or get yourself a decent wireless card and access point to go with it

distant zodiac
#

They work fine for me. Speedtest around 100mb/s which is pretty good compared to wifi (15/20mb/s)

#

Only issue is if you have old wiring or some devices which 'leak' will cause interference

#

For me, the vacuum cleaner causes a few stability issues

light palm
#

Is it all completely wireless or do I connect a cable from the socket upstairs into my pc

#

slightly confused seen as both of them have a ethernet port

spiral yew
#

imaginative lad: mom stop vacuuming
mom: why?
imaginative lad: you're messing up my video games

wraith crystal
#

One question what do you think is better. get another gtx 1070ti (so have dual gtx 1070ti) or sell the currant one in my system and buy a gtx 1080ti?(that is one gtx 1080ti also keep in mind my system is already getting hot because of the case and yes I’m ganna get a new one soon)

agile ermine
#

Is your psu powerful enough for another 1070 ti? And does your motherboard have 2 16x pci-e slots? If yes, then it's probably the cheapest option

#

But you should check the games you're playing with, because sli isn't always properly used

brittle mountain
#

SLI support is basically zero

#

just get the 1080ti

rose lion

#

I had the Octane kit once

distant zodiac
#

@light palm so they use the power cables in your house for the internet connection. Nothing is done wirelessly unless one has a wireless thing on it. That's used to connect your devices to it but it won't wirelessly connect to the router, that's only done using the power cables in your house

spiral yew
#

yea that's what a powerline is imaginative lad

spiral yew
#

when i get my tax refund i plan on getting a new case and these are a couple of options i have found so far

kindred warren

#

Oups, dead!

spiral yew
#

did you drop it?

drifting horizon
spiral yew
#

you got your own green screen πŸ˜‚

#

why it's green and not blue i have no clue

drifting horizon
#

@spiral yew Actually I wanted to take snapshot of one thing but Windows decided to crash out.

#

@spiral yew I use Windows Insider Preview build.

spiral yew
#

ya don't need to tag me

drifting horizon
#

Sry for too many tags. 😏

spiral yew
#

@kindred warren if you know how you can replace the screen

kindred warren
#

@spiral yew I can't it's got a separate grafics card guy at store said possible more expensive to repair than yo buy new. So retired (bc it's 2 weeks old no questions asked) and bought an msi that will get here tom

spiral yew
#

there really isn't much holding those laptop screens in place

kindred warren
#

It's also a mess of wiring

drifting horizon
#

All right - I think that error has occured within the OS/software itself...

#

Or I should actually update my GPU drivers. πŸ˜„

spiral yew
#

that always helps

drifting horizon
#

However as I have checked, I have latest... πŸ€”

#

That's weird.

spiral yew
#

one time i updated my gpu and it fixed one game that i played but broke another game so i had to decide which game i wanted to play

agile ermine
#

a... green screen of death?

#

aka windows on drugs

distant monolith
#

Nice. When did you get a new PC btw?

hidden shell
simple cairn
#

Nice πŸ˜„

hidden shell
#

Damnit, you try to think about everything..my second sound card doesn't fit doublefacepalm

#

Oh and no vga or dvi connector on board, so no 4th monitor...I'm mad at myself.

remote estuary
#

That CPU cooler is legendary :D

wide temple
#

I'm not sure why you bought that cooler, the stock one uses some variant of that exact Cooler Master cooler

#

But nice build otherwise, X570 is excellent for future proofing

hidden shell
#

It was cheap and I've had issues in the past with stock coolers so it was a no brainer.

wide temple
#

The AMD coolers seems to get pretty decent reviews from what I've seen, then again AMD actually redesigned them for their new processors rather than doing what Intel did which is use the same cooler for every CPU...

hidden shell
#

Windows 10 is really incredible. I swapped my m.2 from my old motherboard with an Intel processor and put it on this new one, reboot and absolutely everything works as if nothing happened. Really really nice !

hidden shell
remote estuary
#

Oh you had that CPU as well? wow

hidden shell
#

Yes

wide temple
#

That Haswell generation is legendary, it'll go down in the ranks with the 2500k/2700k, Q6600 etc

hidden shell
#

It just died suddenly for no reason :( it was water cooled with an AIO cooler, so no clue what happened

wide temple
#

Overclocked or?

hidden shell
#

Nope, i never played with OC

wide temple
#

wow that's surprising

#

I know that my old 4690K started to degrade over time as I had to pump more and more voltage to keep the same OC, so I just ended up dropping the clock speed altogether

hidden shell
#

I turned it on, the fan started turning, then immediately reboot, then the same thing over and over. It would reboot instantly after 1 sec

brittle mountain
#

that sounds like a dead motherboard, not dead cpu

hidden shell
#

II t could be but I removed the CPU and the board and fans started and stayed on, put the CPU back and endless reboots.

wide temple
#

Would be fairly difficult to source a Z97 series motherboard now anyway

remote estuary
#

Mhm, I still have the Extreme 4 by AsRock

#

It was 130€ 4.5 years ago

wide temple
#

I have the same mobo on my old PC FeelsWowMan

#

though it's always had a problem with cold booting when it's had no AC power plugged in (could be a dead BIOS battery)

#

Mine will power cycle about 3-5 times before it boots, often resetting the BIOS to default

remote estuary
sly birch
sand valley
#

nope i normally do it after they arrive KEKW

#

it would make sense to do it before tho

sly birch
#

Only one problem with this method tho. You have no computer until then πŸ˜‚

spiral yew
#

nice sentence prime πŸ˜‚

sly birch
#

Damn autofill, I hate mobile sometimes.

turbid vapor
#

@remote estuary Is it a z390 you have? I have the same mobo ^^ I know it's quite late

halcyon rune
#

old but true

remote estuary
#

@turbid vapor I have the 4790k with it so.. It can't be Z390, don't you think? :D
It's a Z97.

turbid vapor
#

aww dang, I've got the 8700k so

timber leaf
#

@violet vale backtagg πŸ‘€

brittle mountain
#

if that case has a glass front panel, i have bad news for you

#

the 5700 will boil in it

turbid vapor
#

is tempered glass that bad for air circulation?

spiral yew
#

if it's on the front panel then yes

#

the more air restriction there is the harder the fans have to work to cool down the case

turbid vapor
#

I've never had issues with mine to be honest bingShrug

brittle mountain
#

SLI is dead for anything other than productivity workloads

clever spire
#

I understand SLI doesn't directly translate into 2x the graphical processing power but won't it give a considerable boost in FPS when gaming?

brittle mountain
#

at most 10% more frames per sec

#

for gaming just get the strongest GPU you can afford and that's it

clever spire
#

I see

brittle mountain
#

and don't waste money on a 2080/2080ti unless you plan to play in 4K

clever spire
#

I play in 2k @ 165hz right now but will probably upgrade to 4k

brittle mountain
#

then go full on 2080ti

#

or wait for Ampere this summer

clever spire
#

What's Ampere?

brittle mountain
#

next gen GPUs from Nvidia

#

think RTX 3080

#

altho we have no idea what they will be called

#

Nvidia logic: 10xx series > 16xx series > 20xx series

clever spire
#

And they'll come out this summer?

brittle mountain
#

launch most likely in september/october

#

announcement in june/july

clever spire
#

yikes that's a bit far off

brittle mountain
#

it gives me time to gather money and replace my 1080ti kappa

#

Cinema 4D still hates 2080ti....

clever spire
brittle mountain
#

again, for gaming it's a total waste

#

for producion, oh i would love to have Titan V SLI for Blender and Cinema 4D

#

that's where you actually see that 60% boost

clever spire
#

i dont do any production stuff but at the same time even just a 30% FPS boost in gaming sounds good. i'll wait a month or so to make a final decision i guess once I have a bit more money.. don't really want to wait until Sept/Oct for those ampere cards

brittle mountain
#

keep in mind it's some FPS boost in some games for 100% more GPU cost

wide temple
#

SLI isn't worth it, don't bother honestly

clever spire
#

i'll take what you've said on board, thanks @brittle mountain @wide temple glad

brittle mountain
#

forgot to mention

#

in some games you will get negative scaling from SLI, welcome to the multi-GPU world πŸ˜„

clever spire
#

Negative scaling? Would that result in lower frames than non-SLI?

brittle mountain
#

yep

clever spire
#

Ouch

#

I take it that's not a common occurance though? I've not read anything about that

brittle mountain
#

just read something similar on that reddit and it reminded me that happened to me a few years ago

wraith crystal
#

why the hell is it deleting my messages

#

...

#

sooooooooo now you dont delete it

#

but also no i would not get that

hollow drum
#

I don't trust pre builts

flat grove
#

that prebuild is overprced, except if there is an Ryzen 9 3990X or Threadripper inside

sinful monolith
#

1759 for 5700 XT LUL

#

not worth paying that much for a gaming PC that's barely capable of 1440p gaming

brittle mountain
#

unless there's a 3950x, 32gb of ram and 2-3tb of nvme storage... no

sinful monolith
#

still not really a good gaming PC

#

it'd be good for general productivity, but not gaming

karmic swallow
#

Pretty sure that price is in AUD though and not USD

brittle mountain
#

Linus pulls out a 24 core cpu: GAMING

#

objectively, the "best" gaming PC as of today is a 9900K paired with a 2080ti and a 1440p 144hz monitor

sinful monolith
#

ah, in AUD that makes more sense

eager fossil
#

Guys i need fast help

#

I built off my ryzen 5 stock cooler and removed the paste and now i want to build the dark rock 4 but i cant

dusk tide
#

What exactly is the problem if I may ask?

eager fossil
#

Idk how the parts are called

marble chasm
#

i guess the black piece is a standoff

eager fossil
#

In the blue circles

dusk tide
#

I can't tell what they are called either. You are only wanting to install a new CPU-cooler though. Don't you?

eager fossil
#

Yes

marble chasm
#

i would call them standoff bushing

eager fossil
#

I dont have these on my mainboard

marble chasm
#

because they are included with the cooler

dusk tide
#

Then you most likely did what I think you did: you got yourself a cooler for the wrong socket.

eager fossil
#

No

#

AM4 socket

marble chasm
eager fossil
#

I got the black pieces but i cant put it on my mainboard

#

I got the aorus b450 elite btw

marble chasm
#

you removed the backplate on the mainboard ?

#

from the original amd holddown ?

#

or bracket

eager fossil
#

I didnt daw it in the box

marble chasm
#

thats on your mainboard..

eager fossil
#

Do it should be there

marble chasm
#

normally

#

but you remove the old amd bracket and maybe its fallen off

eager fossil
#

Bruh then i need to remove the mainboard?

marble chasm
#

or maybe the backpanel of your case ?

brittle mountain
#

don't mount a Dark Rock 4 inside the case

marble chasm
#

there should be a cutout in the mainboardtray

brittle mountain
#

you'll have a bad time

eager fossil
#

Y

brittle mountain
#

former Dark Rock Pro 4 owner here

#

pull the motherboard out, install the cooler, then put it all back in

eager fossil
#

...

marble chasm
#

you can only do it with the bigger sockets or the intelstandart cooler

eager fossil
#

So now i need to pull my motherboard out?

brittle mountain
#

i suggest you do

eager fossil
#

Oh man

marble chasm
#

and dont turn the pc on with the plate behind your mainboard

eager fossil
#

?

brittle mountain
#

as far as i remember, the backplate from the Dark Rock is isolated on the side that presses on the motherboard

#

so i'm not sure what you're on about Willer

marble chasm
#

i wouldnt trust it ^^

brittle mountain
#

i had it on 3 motherboards so...

#

i put a Dark Rock Pro 4 on an mITX motherboard, fight me

eager fossil
#

Wtf

#

The wires dont want to come off

brittle mountain
#

welcome to Be Quiet coolers πŸ˜‚

#

you'll need to use a metal hook or something similar to take them off

wide temple
#

yeah I second the notion of NOT installing a DRP4 inside a case, you'll have a really bad time

#

I managed to do with an mATX but it wasn't worth the time that I wasted when I could have done it out the case

distant monolith
#

Change the CPU to a 3990x, that's way better

spiral yew
#

zircon with that case the front 3 fans will most likely sound like a jet taking off if they are connected to motherboard since there really isn't any room between the glass and the fans

#

is the ram dual channel meaning is there two sticks of 8GB or a single stick of 16GB

#

never heard of that brand but yeh it's good

#

ets2 is unoptimized so it doesn't really matter what gpu you have

#

ATS is better than ETS2 but not by much

#

i get better frames with dx11 on ats

#

Any suggestions for a VPN provider here? Used to be a user of PIA up until my sub expired but will not renew as they've been bought out by a shady company.

sinful monolith
#

What are you looking for in a VPN?

wide temple
#

Anonymity Kapp

#

I liked that PIA were tested in court and proved they had no logs. Ideally that's the main thing + having a decent mobile and desktop app

#

It should be reliable and fast too

sinful monolith
#

I haven't used any for privacy purposes myself, but the one's I've seriously considered trying out would be Freedome (Finnish, duh), and protonvpn (swiss)

spiral yew
#

nordvpn is a good one but they had a security breach

wide temple
#

Yeah I considered Nord but the fact they weren't transparent about it came across as extremely shady

#

Proton looks good, bit steep at 96$ a year though

sinful monolith
#

can get cheaper if you don't need the extras

#

Express is spending so much on marketing I'm wondering how much they have left on actually securing it and making it work

#

I use my own servers for VPN, but I'm already paying for them for other reasons, and I'm not looking for privacy from my IP

wide temple
#

Seeing as I live in the one country in the world with the most draconian surveillance monkaS

sinful monolith
#

keeps my ISP from snooping on everything though, and I know the datacenter doesn't snoop

vague goblet
#

Is this good (for a laptop)?

sinful monolith
#

seems decent

sand valley
#

very good

vague goblet
#

okay thanks

wide temple
#

I thought about doing that 3v, but then it's not really "anonymous", plus you lose the no logs + other regions

vague goblet
#

#

yep, love the nzxt cases

sand valley
#

cpu is 1151 right?

charred granite
#

hang on ill send u my part list

#

yep ofc

#

here is my build ^

#

ive edited it from the last pic i sent

spiral yew
#

lol that's the US site

charred granite
#

yeah i have to change it everytime lol

#

but either way i have the exact same list on my amazon basket

#

this will be my first time building with that cpu cooler

#

as this build i have here im using a stock lol

sand valley
#

what’s the overall budget again?

charred granite
#

well for the motherboard im looking no greater than 150

#

i can extend that to 170 depending how good/nice the motherboard looks like

sand valley
#

ok

spiral yew
#

a 240GB SSD won't leave you much room for programs and windows updates

charred granite
#

i downgraded that to 120 as i just want to use that ssd for the boot thingys

#

i forgot what u call them

#

i have to edit this

spiral yew
#

oh you just wanted to use it for the OS?

charred granite
#

yes yes

sand valley
#

I’m going to re arrange some things to see if I can get you bang for the buck

#

if that’s okay with you ofc

charred granite
#

idm, however im fine with all my parts

#

do what u want tho :)

spiral yew
#

i'm currently using 207GB out of 2TB on my primary drive

charred granite
#

ah wow, im using around 700 right now

#

and on this build i have a 1tb.

#

however im planning to keep this build for a longer time... im planning to take this home with me

#

to my home country

vague goblet
#

woah

#

i have half of both

spiral yew
#

programs will by default want to install on the primary drive

charred granite
#

right okay

sand valley
#

are you planning to overclock squid

charred granite
#

possibly, not sure

sand valley
#

k

spiral yew
#

i'd get a 250 or 500GB primary drive for windows programs

charred granite
#

jeep, could i make that only for the os? or not?

spiral yew
#

it depends on if you want to change the directory every time you want to install a program

charred granite
#

ah hm

#

would that be annoying?

spiral yew
#

for me yes

#

i have a 2TB drive just for steam and my games

charred granite
#

ahhh i see

spiral yew
#

and i've already used over 1TB

charred granite
#

i wanted to get the ssd purely for the os however if that's going to be an issue then idk

#

ah right

#

thats a lot

spiral yew
#

if you want the SSD for the os i'd go with a 250GB

charred granite
#

right

#

thanks

spiral yew
#

some steam games are sneaky and use the primary drive as storage for game data

charred granite
#

oh lol okay

#

ill make sure to keep an eye on that

spiral yew
#

i know farm sim does that

charred granite
#

ill ask a couple of friends as they have an ssd too just for their os

#

i dont play that so xd

#

and jeep, im reading some comments online

#

I'm planning to make a fast-budget pc but I'm not sure if 120GB is enough for windows 10. Does anybody know if it's enough?

Yes it is enough but you'll be left with around 60 or more GB left to use.

#

ive already got the 120 in my draw so :/

spiral yew
#

i saw that but that was 2 years ago

charred granite
#

oh yeah point

spiral yew
#

if do you keep the 120 just keep an eye on it

charred granite
#

will do, ty so much for ur help

sand valley
#

how is this

#

yes 120 is okay

spiral yew
#

with the 120GB SSD you won't get the full 120GB due to formatting

sand valley
#

^^^

charred granite
#

Ah right I see

#

And thx gaming, it’s all the same except the cpu which I’ll be keeping the 9600k

#

Liking the look of the mobo tho

spiral yew
#

with my m.2 500GB SSD i have a total of 465GB after formating

charred granite
#

However, I’ll probably want a more simplistic look

#

Oh wow

#

Not too bad, but a chunk

sand valley
#

Keep

#

?

#

oops

#

I messed up lmao

#

thought I had the 9600K

charred granite
#

Oh lol np

sand valley
#

yea 9600K is a great cpu

charred granite
#

Yep defo

spiral yew
charred granite
#

I’ll do research about it later on a I’m gonna drive with a friend

sand valley
#

k

charred granite
#

Ah wow

sand valley
#

Wowza

#

that’s actually a lot

spiral yew
#

so you might want to rethink about the 120GB SSD

sand valley
#

why is it so much?

charred granite
#

Yep I will

sand valley
#

have you checked your partitions Jeep?

charred granite
#

What should I do with my current one lol

sand valley
#

you can use it as a scratch drive

#

or a backup drive

charred granite
#

I mean I just wanted to put windows 10 on there lol

sand valley
#

idk what you do with your pc

charred granite
#

Oh yeah good idea

#

I’ll just keep it

#

It was only like 20 pounds

sand valley
#

important files

#

or if you record gameplay you can rec it onto that

spiral yew
charred granite
#

Ah yeah good idea, I do record a lot

#

Thanks guys

sand valley
#

ofc

#

damn jeep

charred granite
#

Lookin at that rn

sand valley
#

i have a 500gb drive and it def is not 40gb

spiral yew
#

20GB is needed for the 64bit OS win 10 version and that doesn't include all the updates that have been released

sand valley
#

ahhhh

#

wait

#

wha

#

it’s not your c drive tho

spiral yew
#

i know dat

sand valley
#

honestly weird

spiral yew
#

to install windows 10
Hard drive size:
32GB or larger hard disk

sand valley
#

but why would that effect the drive if windows isn’t installed on it

charred granite
#

I’m guessing I should just buy the 240gb one to be safe

spiral yew
#

i would squid

charred granite
#

Will do

#

Thx so much guys

sand valley
#

agreed 240 is best

spiral yew
#

would rather buy a bigger hard drive or SSD and not use it all rather than buying another one cause the first one didn't have enough room

charred granite
#

Exactly right

#

I’ll use my 120 as idk... I’ll just leave it there

spiral yew
#

that's why i suggested either a 250 or 500

sand valley
#

πŸ™ƒ

charred granite
#

Or maybe for videos and stuff as gaming said

sand valley
#

ye

charred granite
#

Ah right I see

#

Thanks a lot

#

I’ll be ordering that tomo

sand valley
#

yay

spiral yew
#

just trying to save you money squid

charred granite
#

As I only have 20 pounds in my bank lol

#

yep, greatly appreciated keep

#

Jeep*

sand valley
#

charred granite
#

spiral yew
#

charred granite
#

Yep^

#

This build will be my second one

sand valley
#

spiral yew
#

i've spent atleast 3k on mine in upgrades

sand valley
#

JeSuS

charred granite
#

Wooh

#

A lot

#

Not gonna bother upgrading this one

sand valley
#

mine cost about 200

charred granite
#

Lol mine cost like 750

spiral yew
#

well when you mess up and buy a 1080 ti when they are 1,500 yea that adds up quick

sand valley
#

and about 150 in upgrades

charred granite
#

Ah that’s whyπŸ˜‚

sand valley
#

ohhh jeep

#

mining done messed up da market

spiral yew
#

i would've went with the 2080 ti but since they were having artifacting issues i didn't want to deal with that

sand valley
#

damn

charred granite
#

Better be on the safe side ain’t it

sand valley
#

2080ti cost more than my pc

spiral yew
#

i originally spent 1,200 on mine

sand valley
#

y o i n k s

spiral yew
#

plus 2 gpu upgrades

sand valley
#

d o u b l e y o i n k s

#

I got scammed out of a rx560 lmao

#

sigh

spiral yew
#

charred granite
#

charred granite

More secure tho

spiral yew
