Do you prefer atx or m atx? I can do either friend
Personally for m atx I like https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08BCR4ZRS?tag=pcp0f-21&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1
105 and a b550 chipset. With wireless connectivity hard to complain
abstract lava
I was looking at that too
No preferences in terms of atx or matx, got a shitty Fractal Focus G Mini case so will defo upgrade but undecided whether to get ATX or not

Personally I like micro atx cases more atm.

The Montech air is very high quality for the price
sudden grail
Yeah I guess that mobo above will suffice
Is there a feature it’s missing that you’d like?
abstract lava
That?

Is there a feature it’s missing that you’d like?
Nah not really
Undecided whether I wanna switch my sisters PC to an ATX or remain MATX even tho I need to get a new mobo and case anyway
sudden grail
That?
Yeah.
I have the white
The stock pictures don’t do it justice
It also has decent fans
sudden grail
The air 100argb is what I’m referring to
sudden grail
Tempered glass yeah
sudden grail
Not shitty acrylic
I’d never recommend that

Focus G Mini got none on the top wtf
sudden grail
What about dust filters and stuff
Since it doesn’t use molex fans it doesn’t gather much dust.
The fans are super easy to clean off

Corsair 4000D is quite popular too

Corsair 4000D is quite popular too
Bit too big for my liking.
In terms of $90 + the 4000d isn’t it

I made the mistake of putting the new CPU in the A320M without flashing
Now I can't be arsed putting the old CPU back in just to flash it
It doesn't post, black screen basically atm

Well when you buy a mobo it should come with the latest bios
abstract lava
nah it was an old mobo with a r5 1600
I swapped it for a r7 5800x3d without flashing
Like a dumbass
sudden grail
nah it was an old mobo with a r5 1600
Pretty sure the Msi board had flashback with a USB
abstract lava
that is a likelihood
But will it still work or will I have to put the old CPU back in
Cos I ain't tryna do that shit
https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/A320M-GRENADE/Specification That is the exact model
I dont think its supported
Idek which BIOS version I need
Try flash it just to check the parts all work
abstract lava
Which BIOS version do I need for my A320M grenade for it to be compatible with a Ryzen 7 5800XD?
cyan plover
Look in the bios support section
cyan plover
I don’t think it supports it. The latest bios concerns “raven ridge” which is the 2200G and the 2400G
frozen quiver
why do you need to upgrade
Ryzen 7 Vermeer 5800X3D
it is still compatible
latest bios
