You wont be bored if you're dreaming 😉
I don't dream
ʷʰᵃᵗ ᵃᵇᵒᵘᵗ ᵐᵉ ᵍᵒ ˢˡᵉᵉᵖ
Or atleast have no memory
@tepid dew 🛏️
what about QHD 144hz for the 5700xt?
⏲️
I'm looking to move my resolution up.
Anyways, you want 1080p 144hz, get 5700 or 1080 around 400$ is great too
fuk
What's the timer suppose to mean
1440p?
yes sir.
It’s supposed to run 1440p 144hz well
I was trying to tell Mortis 'bed time' in emotes
it should have the horsepower, right?
Yea it should have the oomph
Did he listen
I imagine around high graphics settings I believe you can
The 2070S can run QHD just fine. The 5700XT is the AMD counterpart.
I will probably go to bed in like 2 to 4 hours
neva
You will stop eventully
Look at my profile
What about?
doesn't kaede-chan hugging a pillow make you want to sleep?
To an extent
he gave me a hard time about sleeping last night
cat, go to sleep!
that's an order!
Why the hell does my CPU have the code name of "Coffee Lake"?
Welcome to #pc-build-help-and-tech-talk everyone! Where people yell at each other to go to sleep as a source of entertainment in this sad existence called life.
that's just the nickname Intel gives their different lines of processors.
Yeah
Intel's fukin weird
Nah
Kaby lake, coffee lake, etc.
Intel needs to lay off the lakes.
Nvidia is good 2
Skylake, Kabylake, Coffeelake, Coffeelake Refresh, Comet Lake, Ice Lake, Lake-X.
Fuckn
so many lakes
Not for that price no
they tryna make a map or some shit?
I think I have kaby lake right now.
At least Nvidia innovates.
i7-6700k
Depends on what or whoever is getting
That's Skylake Garde
7700K is a coffee lake I think
Talking about coffee what kinda coffee do you guys like?
I wish I could upgrade to a CPU with 6 or 8 fucking cores lmao
Same
French press, black.
But that’s going to be another time
I like black
No drink coffee, too strong of a taste
That's that
I don't really do coffee in the traditional sense.
I also like to make mochas
ah, thanks bearz
Mochas are good
I have too much knowledge of intel for being an AMD shill lmao
ew i9
You want people in your PC?
I never really cared for intel
Cos thats how you get people in your PC
i9 isn’t my choice
Go for the 3700X, better value
This topic keeps managing to derail and immediately rerail.
@abstract kite Is the intel addict
If you want the high end shit, that’s 3900X
3700x capable of 1440 144hz?
3600 is good for gaming, 3700X is too as well with more power
Nah dawg, 3950X for all you're consumer needs. Threadripper for your HEDTs.
3700X is not what you’d say for that
A weaker CPU = GPU bottleneck meaning your GPU is shit
My processer is shit
And your GPU can’t run that well
Mine is alright but don’t like it too much anymore lol
so what would go well with the 5600xt?
in my case, if i wanted to do higher resolution
not 4k, because that's overrated
3600, 3700X, 2700X, 8700K,
mmmkay
2600 you might as well
Damn I need my GPU off to install this big ass cooler
@abstract kite you said the MSI Tomahawk was best by far?
chipset for...?
For X570 chipsets you're only option is Gigabyte (I'm biased). While their BIOSes may suck, they have the best VRMs and cooling.
B450 and X570 chipsets are for AMD processors.
ah, i see.
Thinking about playing around with RIDL
just dont want to fuck up my PC
as I'm still using Intel rn
Why are you so fond fo intel
I'm not
Why do you know so much about intel
so, what was that part about people in my pc in the case of the i9?
i was thinking about getting one at one point but if that's a mistake, tell me now.
Hm
Because that's what I'm running atm. Plus with Zombieload and RIDL I gotta make sure I dont create openings for my shit to get fucked.
It's a mistake Garde
take it back
how come?
You sure know alot more about pc's than I do. Maybe I will ask you for help from now on
Intel chips run a rudimentary CPU onboard that can allow a lot of shit to be implemented into your system without "windows defender" or any other malware/virus detector to know.
is it the same way for the newest i7s?
Yes
ouch
It's affected the past 20 years of intel chips
basically, you can access the rudimentary cpu from the bios with a simple USB boot.
once you boot windows from that
you're basically in god mode
so, should i just go with AMD in that sense?
that doesn't sound like a feature i'd want with my newest pc built.
I'm studying cyber security as my degree in college
so I learn a lot about this stuff
What is the best brand in your opinion @abstract kite
For what?
Processor, GPU?
how's this look?
Do you need a case?
For motherboards @abstract kite
Ahh depends on the chipset and CPU
@random mural changed the motherboard for a tomahawk max
other than that
solid build
Then Processer
What is the specific function this processor will do?
Gaming, general productivity, etc... ?
Gameing as usual
Max budget?
Yao
i'm also worried about bottlenecking, like puppy mayo described. how does that work?
Bottlenecking is basically
Bottlenecking is when there is more data than can be processed.
If a GPU is processing more than the CPU can handle, your framerate is going to be affected.
ok, so the CPU can't keep up?
It’s pretty easy to avoid though, so you won’t need to worry too much
yeah, like, how high of a clock do I need?
for, in this case, the 5700 xt because that's what i might get.
Clock speed isn't everything. Core count and thread count also play a factor.
Yes
A lot of games are frequency bound, so that's why clock speed is a large factor in that area
Like my 7700K seemed to bottleneck my 2070 Super
4 cores 8 threads isn't enough to handle the processing power of the 2070
Figured
that's a good example of bottlenecking
Because I doubted the 2070 Super even ran Quake 2 RTX at 36FPS normally
Yea that's weird.
Gonna lay down and watch anime, so goodnight?
So. My RAM clearance is being an ass
night cat
Take care
I wish
Have a good one Cat
That's a low chance
oof
I know the ram clearance for Dark Rock Pro 4 was a trident Z
But pressing against that damn Corsair ram? Hell no
Here's a TL;DR of why Intel chips suck security wise.
Intel microcode can be easily patched/modified in the bios allowing hackers to use MDS attacks to gain your passwords and confidential information.
Basically your own processor is a breach in security
because Intel practically refuses to patch it.
Oh my
closer?
what part is hitting the ram
that's low ram already
If its the fan
Raise the fan slightly
Yea just raise the fan slightly
Mmk
Just take the side mounts and move them up one fin
You'll be fine. The headsink itself isn't touching the ram
Let me know if that fixes the issue
@fleet canopy Any luck?
The moment when you drop all your food. ):
I was looking forward to eating it 2
What did you make?
I want to die
No that is always an option
I don't like physical contact
I guess that's the limit
push it to the limit baby
I just hate when people touch me
I would rather not
ironically I love talking in text
And now im up again
Cat
Same
Fuckn watch some good ass anime and sleep
But not in reality
I'll give you a list if that helps
Im gonna ignore that
lmao sure
gang gang
I laid down just for a min and just got back up
bruh
Drink coffee prob solved
☕
Im use to pulling all nighters so I have high endurance to sleep
Try it
Oh I have
I called it at like 5am last time
I can pull you trough
Nah mate I'm good
i have a intel(R) core(TM) i5-4670 CPU @ 3.40GHz processor, can i use it for a GTX 1060 or do i need to get a better processor?
I can earape you intill morning
A 1060 and an i5 is a good combo
You sure
I like wrapping myself up like a burrito and dreaming of foreign lands
yes
I'm sure
lol
just wondering cuz i have a GTX 980 TI atm and i'm not good about computers
Last time I had a dream was a year ago
Nothing feels better imo than waking up in the morning, having a cup of coffee, and crawling back in bed and watching the newest episodes of the week
Yea Zeatex you should be perfectly fine with a 1060.
ok thanks
A lot of my dreams are lucid dreams
and I have a tendency to sleepwalk
hence why I wrap myself up lol
but one thing bearz can i use VR set with what i have now?
Pull all nighters watch anime and game
Its not Cat lmao
That's all I do
He has a GTX 980 Ti
Im pretty much a shut in
:)
Zeatex I believe you can
okay
Yeah 1060 is VR ready
but I'm not sure how much more performance you will get with the 1060 over your 980ti
Also 980 Ti is better than 1060
it is?
I tought you went to bed Puppy
Really?
Haha
DISREGARD MY COMMENTS IM TIRED
980TI better than a 1060?!
Then go to bed
how
Numbers don’t matter
The 980ti is average 36% better
If you go to bed I will somewhat try to go to bed
The generation doesnt matter, the 980ti has better performance than the 1060
the 1060 is equivalent to a 970
What you need is just a CPU upgrade, that’s all
No
welp time to save up money for a CPU upgrade, no more pizza for me 😛
Haha
No what mayo
No sleep
Bruh I'm deadass tired
Sleep is for the weak!!!
I AM WEAK THEN
gamers dont sleep, they respawn 😛
I'm not sleeping... I'm... I'm just recharging.
Yeah!
XD
I won't gurantee that I will go to bed @abstract kite
@tawny kettle I'll keep my hopes up dawg.
Anyways can get a Ryzen 2600 and a B450 Tomahawk
You should not
Thats disappointing then Cat
Cheaper than intel alternative I believe
go and plug in a charger in you and few hours later you top speed again
@abstract kite Don't give yourself false hope
@tawny kettle That's my life ayyyeeee
Also @severe crystal What Mayo recommended is a good idea. A Ryzen 2600 would be a fine upgrade for cheap.
3600 if you can afford it.
okay
2600 is 100$, 3600 200$
F
i think i rather take 2600
B450 Tomahawk is like 60$ or something?
Do you belive in the .1%
2600 is good too
but i guess what i have now is also good?
I believe in the heart of the cards Cat
Zeatex your GPU is still a viable card. There's no need to upgrade for VR.
I guess goodluck
Haha
The CPU’s Name seems old, I don’t know much about it
4th gen i5s are practically ancient yea
But sounds like it’s bottlenecking the 980 Ti in most cases
but on the games it says i need a 1060, can i still use my 980 ti on the games or no?
@abstract kite Actully I take that back since I have only gotten 2 hours of sleep in 2 days I will most likely go to bed
Yeah
1060 is a much newer card, so they're going to say that.
So you chances increase
But the 980ti is better than a 1060
By alot
Yeah, but it’s not as good as a 980 Ti
Haha Cat
Like, just ignore what number it is
You really should sleep
question
head shot
ded
F
My fucking washer just made 3 banging noises that sounded like someone banging on my wall and it scared me
I am shivering
Lmao
Damn washers getting posessed at 3am in the morning
Hahaha
there is always been one thing i had problems with
amirite fellas?
Game isn’t running too fast? CPU is bottlenecking the GPU
3am here
the pc i got recently is stuck in a start up loop and i have already had to do a complete drive wipe, any recommendations
Same
I'm US central
same
Was it my washer being possesed
Start up loop? Like it won’t get past post screen?
@vivid sandal fuckin yikes. I'd need more information than that, does the PC not POST?
POST being Power On Self Test
i can play with low speed on my fans on most of my games but as soon i start dying light my pc overheats if i dont have high speed, what can the problem be?
I uhh
Not enough airflow @severe crystal
Shitty air cooling probably
What case are you using and/or when was the last time you cleaned your PC
are you sure? cuz there is alot of space
crytical systems fail to load and any attempt to fix forces it to shut down and restart with the same error
PC isnt getting past POST then
980 Ti is known to kind of be a heat card, right?
980ti hot boi yes
Yeah, pretty normal
i have around 4 i think
@vivid sandal What are the specs of your PC
Your fans might not operate too well I guess
hmm they are not that old
@severe crystal If you haven't cleaned your parts recently, dust can choke out a significant amount of airflow.
maybe thats why
Well not old, but not too powerful, right?
When was the last time you cleaned you pc @severe crystal
uhm lets not talk about that
Hahah
maybe 3-5 months ago XD
though i changed out the ram cards to have 16g memory
@vivid sandal When did you purchase this PC? Did you get a warrantly on it?
What ram did you change it out to? If you've mismatched ram sticks and speeds that could be an issue.
I don't have the motivation to do it
how does one clean the fans beside opening the case and using compressed air?
I haven't cleaned my PC in half a year, but I have dust filters so it's fine I guess? Barely any dust in the case, but it's probably time for a new cleaning.
Imma go sleep now. 4AM rn lol
i have stayed up all night its 10 am for me XD
@vivid sandal antistatic cloths and gentle strokes. But compressed air is a safer bet.
owo
ooh?
nope ram are in the proper slots cause i had to pull up and find the manual
Yes?
What time zone do you live in?
why do i see so many anime pictures?!
@vivid sandal I mean the ram sticks themselves, did you purchase the same brand and speeds?
Anime is popular Zeatex lol
Because weebs are rising @severe crystal
Eastern Standard Time
where is my flamethrower
So your a hour ahead of me
Calm down there bud
Yes burn me
Some people like things that others dont
I want to be burned
I’ll ask my brother to help me with the cooler anyways lol
came in a pair and are vengeance ddr4 3000mhz
If I could teleport I'd fix it for ya lol
Guess goodnight Puppy
Cough Weakling
wait you are from angel beats @tawny kettle i wont burn you
:(
What was the ram you had when you bought the PC @vivid sandal
@fleet canopy Sorry puppy had to do it to you
i dont burn people from angel beats they are too op
You cant burn a loli in a panda onesie you heartless bastard lol
Reee
i will burn all the loli

heathen
@severe crystal Pls I will pay
how much
Whatever I have left
give me all your angel upgrades
Nao
came with 8g ballistix card 3000hrz
Complains about anime
Angel Beats fan
I see no controversy here /s
should be ddr4 but cant find the labeling
@vivid sandal Mismatching ram isnt a good idea. Try taking out the vengeance ram and booting the system
I have 24GB of 2400MHz lol
@abstract kite How can you still think?
2 Corsair vengeance, 1 unknown but 8GB and 2400MHz, I think it’s Kingston
no it came with the ballistix card swapped it out with the 2 vengeance
Puppy said that they were gonna go to bed like I said but haven't yet
shh
i watch pokemon for living
Full of shit from my one package
Just flip your bed @fleet canopy
No
Because no
Because why?
because effort?
@vivid sandal Replace the vengeance with the ballistix. There could be an incompatibility.
Put the PC back to "stock" essentially. We can rule out hardware incompatibilities if you do this. If it boots, then you have bad vengeance ram. If not, then the issue is something else.
There has to be a reason @fleet canopy
cat your fault i'm watching angel beats now
First rule of troubleshooting: Always go back to square one. lol
My desk rn
when you say stock you mean wipe all the drives to initial start up?
best battle station
@severe crystal Im happy
@vivid sandal Yes and no. Just put the original ram back in and try booting it.
leave software alone for the moment
@tawny kettle i blame you
Alright
sounds like you're not even getting past POST
Take care
so it's not a software issue
@fleet canopy Do I need to clean that desk for you
I have a picture of my desk somewhere
No leave it as it is for now
but its kinda outdated
In fact I would throw away everything on the table including the table
No
My desk it not even that dirty
All I have on my desk is a glass of water and my computer stuff
Baaaaaahhhhh
So, basically the same setup, but right now the left side is piled high with PC parts for my new build.
Do I need to send a pic of my desk now
You can if you want to
If you wish
Tbh I want your keyboard puppy
Those were good
I had a G610 Orion before I got my K95
A G710 with missing button on numpad enter and a mission right ctrl cap along with the most dirtiest fucking keyboard you’ll ever see?
Uh
I have bad cam
No worries
Mini mic
Baby mic
Nano mic
You think I can fit a mic on this desk
A big one
Boom arms are a thing my dude
There is now way
Don't have to make me jealous
I'm not lol

But Mics are expensive

A blue snowball is like $50
How good dose that sound?
Voice reveal?
bet
omg
its gonna be a meme
Ima freak
of course
trying to find a faux ad I did for a friend
for his middle school podcast
am back
Wb
what i miss
not much
btw @vivid sandal Replace the vengeance with the ballistix. There could be an incompatibility.
Put the PC back to "stock" essentially. We can rule out hardware incompatibilities if you do this. If it boots, then you have bad vengeance ram. If not, then the issue is something else.
nope the changed out the ram cards and still in the same start up loop
Then the ram isnt the issue
do you have a warrenty on the PC
and/or are you able to return it to best buy
because this issue shouldnt be something you have to deal with
yes i got the extended warranty kinda glad i did though i remember them saying it was for physical defects but still within the 30 return
Try taking it back if you can
this is a physical defect
something is wrong with the hardware
this wouldn't be classified as a software problem?
POST?
Power on self test
ah
If its looping and not even booting into the OS, its probably a POST problem
Which would mean hardware most likely
Whether it be a bad storage device or something else, it’s hard to tell at the moment
I recommend returning it and seeing if they can exchange it
hope so cause i spent nearly a grand on this thing
guess ill have to head back to bed and wait till the morning
thankyou wish everyone else luck
Chuuuuuuuuuuu-
Chu~
OwO
Heywo nerds
God dammit google -.-
Thoughts on this?
Hm
That's somewhat of a weak card for a 3900X
No wait it's a 3600X
God damn am I blind
But yeah that's cool
True
@vapid folio storage?
Not chosen yet, I wish to sell my current rig for slightly under a grand plus additional savings
I'll just keep my drives
@barren moth
(updated)
Ah ok
new mouse?
Comes with keyboard
Mobo comes with CPU and RAM
Everything is so expensive in Australia ;-;
@valid bronze can't see it since it's private
@cerulean cradle depends on the price you can find it at
my bad
S'all good lil buddy
I'm not worried about the price,
What currency is this @valid bronze
Just checking if anyone has it, i wana hear his thoughts,
should be USD
Oh sorry
I was looking confused at the components like
"Why is it adding up to so much?"
actually I have B450 tomahawk but idk which one is better
Have you updated the bios on that?
im about to buy the rest since I havent buy them all yet
cries in not knowing what you're talking about
Okay well if you update the bios to be compatible with Ryzen 3000
then you can put the cost of the mobo and cpu into a 3600 or so
What even are your intentions rn?
buy the rest of the list
you can get windows 10 pro cheaper than that, the $100 or so you save can go to better cpu
o, just saw you got cpu/gpu/mobo already, oh well.
@valid bronze As much as it pains me to say it, you don't need the noctua cooler for Ryzen. The stock cooler is good enough. Unless you want a very quiet system, then it makes sense.
I would not bother getting an x470 motherboard if you have a B450 board now. Both are fine with Ryzen 3000, just remember to update BIOS.
It's also not clear what parts you have and what parts you want to get. That makes giving good advice more difficult.
The AMD stock cooler is great, especially against the Intel stock
The AMD stock cooler is good enough for 95% of all users. The intel stock cooler throttles the CPU at stock settings...
NEEEEEEEEEEEEEERDS
@radiant garnet I have the graphic card, the Ryzen and the B450
What RAM do you have now?
Not buy that yet
Those are the only 3 that I have rn
Just looking around if I do anything wrong or what should I do cuz this is my 1st try :)
Are you planning on upgrading to Ryzen 3000 in the near future?
I got a Deepcool Gammaxx 400 for 20 bucks, tbh probably the best cooler for the money. The Stealth Wraith is alright, but there's no way I could have gotten the 4ghz overclock on my 2600 with it at acceptable temps anyway.
Here's some suggestions for RAM and a different SSD and a different case.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/W42DZf
Here's also a list of monitors. Getting 2 144Hz monitors doesn't really make sense. 1 does, and 3 does, but 2? wat
https://pcpartpicker.com/products/monitor/#A=3,2,1&D=100000,240000&P=2,7&sort=price&r=768004320,576002160,512002880,512002160,512001440,409602160,384002160,384001600,384001200,384001080,344001440,256001600,256001440,256001080
I would suggest a 27" 2560x1440 144Hz IPS panel. They start at about $270 with many around 400.
@valid bronze
Thanks imma check them out
Let's see
2 of the same monitor at what seems 30$ over my recommended 200$ price or lower
And why
Is it so fucking expensive
For that monitor on best Buy, Walmart, SuperBiiz and PCM?
280$ and up
Holy mother of fucking Jesus
I just have 2 1080 75hz IPS panels that I got for 100 each, so I'm good 
I have the new evo 212 black edition and i ocd my 2600 to 4ghz
That's what I have my 2600 set to as well
1.3 works like a charm, never tried going beyond 4ghz; but I figure its fast enough. An extra 100 or 200mhz isn't gonna do much
Yes
oh shit, there’s also nano itx
forgot about that one
there’s another size up from EATX too

I have this Lundia shelf system... (You know, stands and shelves and doors, buy what you need and plan/design + combine + build it the way like it!)
...Have for a long time now wanted to build a mATX/ITX system between two shelves with a "floor list" of the same set as a the "front panel" etc... Maybe one day! =P
hell yeah
That sounds interesting as hell
I love that idea though
I’ve alsways wanted to repourpse an IKEA shelving unit
and drill holes and shit
prolly have to water cool though
and I’m poor so there goes that idea
Water Cooling isn't really that expensive any more though?
nah like a custom loop and shit
OH
gotta do it for the GPU
Fuck that
assuming it’s a closed shelf
Do you guys know how long till the pre order?
I'm a Safety Manager. I don't fuck around with mixing electricity and water. 🌩️ :

The developers have announced that the game will be open to Early Access on December 9th. Early Access purchase will cost $35, and will be cheaper than the final release.
but I can’t air cool shit in a bookshelf
Sorry, unable to find a tag named timer.

I wanted to do a mini-itx computer solely for hooking it up in my living room, so I can have PC-quality gaming, with the console/couch-coop experience.
I was poor too when I first got the idea...
...And now, well, my current set up is so that the case is in an unheated storage room (heating it up!), and there's holes for all the necessary cables coming through the wall & under my (self-made) table.
= "Where's your computer?" is a question I often hear.
And the best part?
Being behind (an insulated) wall = it's quieter than the ambient (barely audible) hum of the AC =P
lmao
Without having a gawdy looking set-up with an obvious PC rigged up to my TV
there’s an LTT video on that
Since I upgraded my computer, my fans are audibly louder lol
Used to be, I never really understood the bullshit "oh, this is .01 dB quieter!!!11111111" argument for fans.
Now, it makes a bit more sense.
If you notice the difference, it matters, yeah =P
Not always
If it's noticeable, but not really "attention-getting"... no it doesn't matter.
I mean, "whisper quiet" versus "silent" doesn't mean shit.
But I'm neither of htose now
I mean, it keeps my stuff cool, and I don't feel like anything's overheating at all . I think my CPU runs at about 50*C during "normal" heavy loads, and I think I had it hit upper-50's once?
I hear you!
Currently I'm on the "I need to check the LED light on my (USB) optical drive on my table to see if the computer is on" -level of quietness and loving it =P
( And don't have to be picky about parts / fans Db ratings )
50c is good
mine hits 60c
I might have hit 60, but if I did it was a brief moment of intense usage.
60c is average gaming
ah
That was just running a benchmark test with Intel's tool
bench wise I hit 70
I really, really should go customize my fan profiles
I don't feel like it's necessary at all - that sort of shit is, in my opinion, just for people who want to squeeze the last .001 MHz out of their processor without having to buy anything.
(Or who want to run a 3.0GHz at about 6.5GHz lol)
But there's a perfectionist side of me who really feels like I should go tweak them to my version of perfection 🤣
I know I can get 4Ghz on my 2600
OverClocking in general isn't "as meaningful" as it used to be...
Unless like implied above, "you go way over!" =P
but I don’t have a good cooler
I don't think it was every really meaningful. It was, imo always just a prick-measuring contest.
But now, everything supports it by default, there are programs to auto-do it, bios settings are OC friendly... It's lost its purpose.
When you OverClocked your 100MHz Pentium to 120MHz, it sure was meaningful! =P
You could SEEEEEE the difference =P
I guess I don't remember that
Back then, it wasn't like games were racing to see if they could make a game that required more than the current gen system could support.
So you might have a Pentium... but the game didn't even max it out 🤣

Is that a full size tower?
looks like a mid-size
mid yes
Hm
weird
Yes
@late sorrel This is in. A 2015 cooler on a 2019 processor 🤣
I’m using the AMD stock cooler
so you’ve probably got a better cooler than me
so it’s not a suprise yours is cooler
and anyway, mid sixties is the highest I’ve seen in a long time
Yeah - there is no "stock cooler" that comes when you buy the i9 individually
yeah obviously
And, I guess any time I've ever bought everything to build a PC... I've never had a stock anything come with another part 😕
Hell, you even have to buy your own thermal paste 🤣
most make you to do that
Well, I thought I was missing something when you started talking about "stock" this or that.
Like - I didn't know stock.. things... existed in the realm of building PCs
yeah, most CPU’s on the lower end come with a stock cooler
pretty much all non-k CPU’s and all of AMD’s bar the threadrippers
I'll be damned. The more ya know.
yeah, warranty stuff says you’re supposed to only use those coolers
Wack
I wanna
OC to 5.0ghz, some day
but I gotta understand the voltage and stuff, and I may need extra power connects for the CPU
Some of the newer intel cpu's will do that out of the box if i remember right
it may not be all cores but it will
The older 2600k+ series if i remember right could hit fairly close if higher from my memory
That says 'bionic LED breathing light'.

i7 9700k

2080*
also WTB midnight release
built her meself
Nice!
dude
?
Looks cool
That definitely looks like something your eyes will hate over time (RGB wise)
is it strange that i now wonder why not only graphics card makers but also ram cards havent been led modified till now
pretty soon it'll be implemented onto processors! lol
The coolers have it.
I'm aware. I meant directly on the processor itself. It was a joke as well
when the pc is to bright to see whats happening
When a PC costs $2000-$2500 but the cable management is questionable.
cable management is pain
I find it cathartic
I ziptied all of mine behind the motherboard... 😐 If I can't see them, I managed them.
i just redid my entire command center and it took way to long
yeah that
nasty pre build, but I'm sure specs are nice
my cable management was on par you cant see any cables what you see is the liquid cooling hoses
hdmi switch
and the rgb light isnt that blinding
i was playing killjoy, I have the same tubes jutting out off my processor as well
D:
I like your build. Way out of my budget though
only ran me 1700
yup too much
full set up 2k prolly
not me single no kids.. just got out military nothing else to blow money on so why not right
Killjoy only needs to wrap the thing in RGB strips now and you have a christmas present
Fuck that thing is bright
they keyboard and mouse came with but havent switched the main and sub
nah i got the glass part facing away from me so when you walk in you can see it but i cant see it while at pc
mic consoles and other pc are off shot
i like your desk lousy
thankyou
So it lights your wall or walls? @scarlet saffron
How old is that mousepad lousy lol
i made it and wanted to be cheap
sort of.. but no really?
uhhh like 5+ years
not bright enough to light the walls?
Ahh
I have never built anything with full RGB as of yet
so i wouldnt know
Maybe some day when someone asks me to build a setup like that
i wanted to do full liquid cooling but the kits are expensive so i said fuck all that and went rgb
I feel you on that one for sure
But Full RGB feels expansive as fuck too
it adds a few extra dollars for sure
but idk what the exact prices are you are paying more on it over normal parts
but beats the 500 dollar liquid cooling kit/water blocks for gpu/cpu
True and RGB parts feel like better quality now than years ago
Some of the parts actually look very nice
eh like 20-50 dollars more depending on the part
On the long term its a good investment if you enjoy the RGB
20 for rbg ram i paid 89.99 for my 16 gb corsair 3200 mhz kit where as the non rgb 3k were 69.99 i think
at some point i feel if it hasn't been done yet someone is going to make a pc just running off the LEDs in some type of binary
just an example
i went full corsair
Corsair fans are not cheap but Bequiet or Noctua fans arent cheap either
im full corsair as well
wanted to do msi/corsair but the gigabyte aurora was on sale
And usually you can get some free RGB fans with the case if you are buying corsair cases
yeah for like $160 for rgb mid tower case
yeh i got the new 465i corsair case came with free programmanle rgb fans
I mean the fans are not free but will be in the price included
Its better than paying 30 a pop buying them from a store
I just got that one bundle with four rgb fans with the node for like $90 when it was on sale
i was pretty disappointed when i coudlnt fit both fans on my h115i in this case..
I think corsair sells like packs of 2 but not sure tbh
that was a problem for me on the old tower as the cpu cooler fan was 80mil and died so its either get a full new cooler as couldnt switch out the fan
look them up they have more than 2
seems craxy 3 fans for 90 bucks
Yeah it does sound crazy
yeah, but paying for brand and quality
But fans usually last so long theyre definetly worth the price
yeh corsair hasnt let me down yet
I usually sometimes even re-use fans from my old setup after cleaning them
well their is something to be said about how they are made but at some point your just paying for a name
Corsair hasn't made any plans to build PC hardware, besides their RAM. My build is 60% Corsair XD
my PC is 100% corsair other than motherboard
Your GPU?
Lmfao
msi gpu ftw
also cpu
i went with gigabyte originally but it started artifacting within the first week....... but msi is doing great enevr gets over 65c even under full load
My Corsair items are Case, PSU, CPU Cooler, RAM, all case fans, and peripherals.
my gpu has there liquid cooler
full corisair as well mouse headset keyboard mousepad..
Yup
me too
Corsair VOID PRO?
High five
i have glave pro
I'm just mad Corsair doesn't make an ambidextrous mouse.
Sucks because I'm left moused.
surprised they dont
Intel hd4000 ?
