Because 5800xt for cpu and 7900x for gpu

That would make me mad ngl

If I saw someone with a 7900x in the first place

Waste of money if ur a gamer

I use gimp more than photoshop though

adobe always changes stuff with updates lol

And no one asked for that

apple had their grip back then with final cut ironically

I like the rgb ram and no rgb everything else

It looks nice especially on fractal cases

marsh void
#

no rgb goal but ram was open box deal I could not let go pass

serene yarrow
#

Makes sense

#

I tried to get my brother to get an rgb aio and rgb ram for his fractal north case

Just make the leds white

set one color and forget

Waterblocking it shrinks it a lot lol

I like the air cooler tbh

serene yarrow

Why did you get taichi just to waterblock it

It’s pretty

Plus I'd have two get a new case cause im not sure a 280mm rad would cool it

snow fractal
serene yarrow
#

Ah

wooden sand
#

Tbh i woulda just gotten the aqua at that point

coarse moat
#

So was the white version cheaper than the black version?

snow fractal
#

I got the white one because it was the one in stock

coarse moat
#

Okay

snow fractal
wooden sand
#

the block for a 7900 xtx is like $200 and the aqua is only $300 more then the taichi

I'm thinking of flashing mine tho with a air cooler my temps run about 57-60c on stock bios with a 450w heat load and OC

I might try flashing the bios and see how it does at 3.1 ghz

serene yarrow
#

I wanted to watercool simply cause it looks good

snow fractal
#

Also most of it is looks and just tinkering

wooden sand
#

I'd say the cooler would still keep it below 70c

#

just ramp up the fans a bit

serene yarrow
#

My pc silent

#

For stock Msi fans on my case that’s impressive

wooden sand
#

If I didn’t OC it’d probably be silent

marsh void

I replaced all the fans in my case at some point

wooden sand

Or it I just took it out of performance bios

4 noctuas and one Delta Server fan that screams like someone is killing it on startup

serene yarrow

100 bucks for some fans??

I am crazy to have a server fan as exhaust but that shit does a good job

Most of my fans are from my aio lol

3 front aspect rgb fans 6 vardar s fans from the aio and 3 back aspect rgb

@idle timber still working on getting those pics of what your old setup was reduced to?

# serene yarrow Bro the server fans are so tinyy

This is with all 12 Delta fans running. Enjoy!

This is a water cooling setup for a custom computer! There are three Black Ice SR1 480 radiators under those 12 fans.

Since the Deltas are very effective at moving tons of air (theoretically a maximum of 3000 cubic feet/minute with 12 fans!), we wanted to use them, but they are so noisy. T...

# idle timber She still stuck in storage

Now she’s onto mobos and wants to know that every pin does for it and what every feature is exactly before she was asking why not to buy 20 tb worth of ssd on a 3500 budget (the ssd would take more that the entire budget) she seems to be very strict on budget if someone recommends something but if she wants 4000 of ssd then she dosent need a pc in her mind lmao

Wasnt their budget 7k?

She also uses her own website made by her as a “source”

Wait what?

no way

We were telling her a ssd was bad and she linked her own website she made as the source

#

For why it was good

scenic mortar

Like nothing against her she seems to want to know everything but some of the things she asks we will answer and she won’t listen

besides the previous gen of WD black ssd arent they the best price to performance?

No

Maybe it will come down

wooden sand
#

Bro for $2600 you can make a damn nice 4K gaming rig 😂😂

#

But people will still buy it. That’s why nvidia feels incentivized to sell stuff that expensive

tawny void
#

exactly, 1 schmuck that is willing to spend their kids college fund on a gpu is worth just as much as 5 normal people to them

wooden sand

I have like $2200 in my rig and I can play literally any game at 4k ultra settings no problem. Can’t imagine paying over $1200 for a gpu let alone $3000

soft torrent
#

Is that how much the matrix costs?

wooden sand
#

Think it’s $2600-$3000

#

Guess it depends where you get it

Nah. Just wait till 5090 and then consider buying it in 3-4 years after launch date

Ewwww

#

That is $2000 too expensive

wooden sand

That’s $2500 too expensive. Not sure why $1000 gpus ever became an acceptable price point in the past

tawny void
#

its literally double the msrp

wooden sand
#

That’s so dumb. Genuinely I believe even if I had the money to blow I wouldn’t buy it

tawny void
#

makes more sense to just waterblock a 4090 then buy the matrix

idle timber
#

Wait so what 4090 should i be getting if I’m water blocking it myself

The strix?

what waterblock are you planning on using for the 4090

Was absolutely nuts

You can get the kingpin 3090s for about $900 now on eBay

wooden sand
#

And there’s loads of other options as well that cool better. Same with Corsair theyre nice but their hydro X block doesn’t really cool that well

wooden sand

I wanna get one for my 7900 xtx but I’m not sure a 280mm rad will cool it

So ima probably just stick w the air cooler

That’s fair

wooden sand

Yea the thermal right frozen notte 360

It’s about $70 and will cool a 13900k

soft torrent
#

Oh dang

#

Thermalright is underrated

wooden sand
#

Idk why more people don’t recommend it. Guess it’s cause the mounting hardware is jank

#

I’ve got a friend using one to cool his 7950x3d and it works great evidently

#

I think ima upgrade to the 7800x3d and do a custom loop for it and the 7900 xtx

soft torrent
#

Talking about the 13900k being a space heater makes me imagine a troll ad for it and saying something like: “we’ve made sure to include the latest in space heater technology on our most powerful cpu.”

Just imagine the 15900k oof

Overclocked to 4000 XD

The strix can already OC to 3GHz if I’m not mistaken from factory

idle timber

This pc here is what i made top 100 with

#

If the 5090 is what they say it’s gonna be and has a 40-50% jump in performance from the 4090 I might sell my 7900 xtx and buy it

#

Pair it with my 5800x 🤡

#

Well maybe in like 3-4 years anyway. Can’t imagine it being any less then $2000 on launch

I’ll grab it too lol

#

I'd buy this one

undone grotto
#

it's honestly overpriced but it's the only glossy 4k gaming monitor so shrug

snow fractal
undone grotto
#

i have both of them on my desk right now

#

um

snow fractal
#

the usb pd and integrated usb hub is really nice tbh

undone grotto
#

the dough spectrum is very well built and has a glossy screen coating

snow fractal
#

@undone grotto it's $20 more

undone grotto
#

the innocn panel is objectively better though

#

its response time is twice as fast and it supports 160hz

#

gets twice as bright in SDR and has actual hdr support

snow fractal
#

lol

undone grotto
#

but i honestly prefer using the dough spectrum outside of hdr games which i never play anyway

snow fractal
#

I'd use hdr

undone grotto
#

the build quality and design of the innocn fucking SUCKS

#

its ungodly bright though

#

like you can feel the hot coming off the screen from where youre sitting

#

and if you touch it it's super hot

snow fractal
#

tbf, I'm using it on an arm where I'll set it and forget it

undone grotto
#

on 100% brightness i mean

#

gets bright enough to even be uncomfortable in a bright room it's kinda hilarious

snow fractal
#

hahaha

undone grotto
#

and you can feel it radiating heat

snow fractal
#

probably uses a lot of power

undone grotto
#

for sure

snow fractal
#

400w monitor lol

undone grotto
#

that just makes its pixel response time even faster though

snow fractal
#

@undone grotto does it have an integrated power supply

#

or is it a brick

undone grotto
#

no it has a fatass power brick

#

and the monitor itself is pretty thick

snow fractal
#

hahaha

undone grotto
#

i was using 2600 lumen light bulbs

#

a few of them

#

and i had my curtains wide open mid day

#

and the monitor still made my eyes water when i got flashbanged or stared at a white webpage

snow fractal
#

hahaha

#

this is what I'll get if I don't get like a c2

#

thing is though, I prefer 27" way more over 42"

undone grotto
#

the blooming is very obvious

snow fractal
#

@undone grotto is the io downward facing or upward

#

rearward*

undone grotto
#

the cables plug in from below

snow fractal
#

ughh

undone grotto
#

on the bottom in the middle

#

the design is clunky as fuck to the point that it's kinda cool

#

feels like a prototype chineseum bootleg monitor

snow fractal
#

haha

#

i used a viotek gnv27db for a while so I get that

#

right after I bought it the prices dropped like crazy and the specs got better lmao

undone grotto
#

its like that with displays

#

theyre gonna get way better in the next few years which is cool but also sad

#

mine are gonna be obsolete asf

snow fractal
#

we both know you'll buy the new ones anyways

i need to get a well paying job to support my monitor addiction

Honestly that cross was way harder to make then you would think

did any of those survive?

It’s 18 inches tall

snow fractal

oh wow

Yeah that’s why it wasn’t cheap

#

It’s a solid cross no joints

That’s why I’m saying harder to make then you think

snow fractal

mhm

Then when you router the edge the corners are sharp so i have to chisel the inside corners

100% off for the burn damage

wooden sand
#

Just don’t power it on obviously till you completely disassemble and thoroughly clean everything

#

It looks incredibly clean for a fire. I’d say a lot won’t be salvageable cause it’s plastic but maybe some stuff. Even if you could just use the cards without the coolers it’d be worth the hassle being 3090s

coarse moat
#

Yea maybe

#

Any plastic or anything has probably melted into the case though

wooden sand
#

Yea but tbh you can probably still salvage some stuff

#

It looks like the case kept it pretty intact

coarse moat
#

Shoutout to thermaltake for fireproof pc cases

wooden sand
#

As long as it wasn’t powered when it got that hot it’s probably okay

#

Granted if there’s no melty stuff

coarse moat

Didn’t thermaltake cause caselabs to close or something?

idle timber
wooden sand
#

Fr you should try and salvage a lot of it. Those cards would be a good replacement until you get your 4090

#

And the aio too but I’m doubting it still works tbh. I think the EK AIOs have plastic rotors in the pump

spring sail
#

Could probably salvage it

#

Was expecting the case to be warped to hell and the internals to be more..... melty

#

Might be able to make a spare PC out of it if you can salvage most of it

#

the fans aren't even melted, and those would have probably been one of the first things to melt when the glass broke

Thats probably the hottest that thermal paste has ever been KEKW
