Alphocool is based

#

Big up eisbaer

#

What’s ur usecase?

#

Dude are you seriously watercooling a 9070xt

compact cairn
#

Yeah. Why not. From what ive seen you get 20 celsius cooler under normal use

#

So i figuren i could go with a cheaper gpu and just clock it a bit

#

Also it looks cool

honest girder
#

but if you wanna do it for the sake of it, sure

#

though multiple swaps are needed here

#

board/psu/ram/cpu*, most notably

#

what's with all the Asus?

compact cairn
honest girder
#

in what universe

#

going by brand is a bad idea inherently

#

every brand makes at least some slop

#

some more than others

#

asus is certainly on the end of more slop

#

tbh

compact cairn
#

I just went for the cheapest of the large brands. As some of the other stuff i looked at previously got sold out

#

I just wanted a 850 mother board. And 850 watt gold powersupply

#

And asus is one of the more afforable gpus with waterblocks avalable

honest girder
#

What exactly is the PC for?

compact cairn
#

Gaming mostly

#

I jsut want it to run smoothly at a dement price, have sone longevity and not be extremely loud

honest girder
#

atp you should not be custom looping

compact cairn
#

Looking at some Lian Li fans with 3.97 mmH2O static for the radiators

#

Yeah, im still gonna do it.

honest girder
#

as long as you know it serves zero functional purpose, only complicating things tenfold

compact cairn
#

Yeah no

#

My laptop has a better cpu the that

honest girder
#

you do realize the 7500f and 9700x have extremely similar averages in gaming, yeah?

#

the 9700x would only do better in particularly CPU intensive games, and even then- not a lot

#

the 7500f is just a 7600 without the igpu

#

and the 7600 performs near 1:1 in most cases with the 9600... which follows suit with the 9700x

#

This pool includes CS2, which is honestly half the reason the 9700x is even noticeably higher

#

even then, that's.. 6%.

#

6% in a favourable situation for the 9700x.

compact cairn
#

I was actualy debating going for the 7900X3D instead

honest girder
#

don't

compact cairn
#

Im not going to build a computer with worse specs then my laptop

honest girder
#

the 7900x3d was a terrible CPU

#

jack of all trades- except it sucked at everything

compact cairn
#

Most posetive sweede

honest girder
#

I'm Canadian 🥀

#

And I heavily doubt you're building something worse than your laptop

compact cairn
honest girder
#

??

compact cairn
honest girder
#

it would not be worse than your laptop

#

probably

compact cairn
#

I have a 7840hs in my laptop. So yeah it wouldebt be far off

honest girder
#

it's far off

#

though it's extremely difficult to bench laptop and desktop skus against each other, considering most professional reviews just.. don't bother

honest girder
#

userbenchmark is terrible

#

genuine shit site

#

seriously no idea how it's still top search results

#

extremely inaccurate/biased as well

#

don't bother searching for comparisons, literally all of these sites suck

#

anyone could confirm

#

most of them are slop algorithms fed nothing but prices and specs from manufacturer sites

compact cairn
#

Fair. The gist of is id rather have a pc thats a bit over speed over under specked. And I do multi task quite allot. Want to get back into streaming. Ive also devated buying a 3d printer recently so ive been trying to get more into 3d rendering and shit

Es no bueno

compact cairn
#
  • im debating getting a package deal, thats basicly all those parts
lavish pelican
#

There’s no real place to compare cpus

compact cairn
#

How well it runs city skylines 2
