I have the exact same SSD I think lol

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:43 PM

#

Amd is cheaper

#

The cooling fan doesnt do much tho :/

#

Lol

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

Yeah, but not too bad for just a stock

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

Yeah that’s true

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

I think there's a CPU cooler that's equal to DRP4, but much cheaper

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:44 PM

#

Better than no rgb in my pc

#

Ooh

#

I did hear about that

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

Yeah

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

But since amd has a cooler, i guess it’s best to save money

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

True

#

Unless it's not doing very well

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:45 PM

#

Yeah

#

Better to have a cooler in the package than none

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

Motherfucking 7700K is 570$ what

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

wobble

#

Amazon

#

JackalDerp

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

Yeha lol

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

Worth tho

#

I play osu and apex and it runs rly well

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Single threaded maybe

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

And hey fun fact

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Yeah?

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

My pc isnt even overclocked

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Mine either lel

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Lmao

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:47 PM

#

Don't really plan to overclock the CPU anyways

#

RAM, totally

#

GPU, probably

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

Gpu is overclock-able

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

Yeah

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

Ram, idk

#

Cpu, ehhh...

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

how much ram do you guys run on .__.)

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:49 PM

#

Wat u mean by that

#

Ngl tho

#

I shouldve gotten the asus prime motherboard

#

Asus makes the best motherboards for me at least

#

@copper harness 16 gb of ram

#

I got scammed tho

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

2x8GB DDR4-2400MHz CAS19

#

lol

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

^

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:51 PM

#

asus things kinda on the expensive side tho ;-;

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:52 PM

#

No not rly

#

Ill show u a build that i shouldve gotten

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KhLcf9

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

i forgot im using prime 250m-a XD

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

the asus i shouldve got is cheaper

#

yeah that

#

it's 70

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

700$ 2070

#

Hm

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:53 PM

#

the motherboard i got is $10 more

#

it's...

#

pricy... the gpu

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

im plannin to sell my current pc and build another lol

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

oooh

#

good luck

#

u can sell it for a higher price

#

make some profit

#

ChicaCrazyyyyyyyyyyy

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:55 PM

Kek

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:55 PM

#

too ez

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:55 PM

#

Ok uhh

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

im gonna sell it to my bro

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

Is there any way for me to find my exact RAM?

#

Like speed

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

~~gonna rip him off~~

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

the gpu is the most expensive part on my pc

#

uhhh

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

task manager?

#

XD

kind bobcat Apr 14, 2020, 3:56 PM

#

that... i forgot

#

uhhh

#

i think he meant something else

#

OHH NVM

#

im dumb

copper harness Apr 14, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

wat

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/X26cV7

#

That's mostly what I have now

#

Some parts aren't exactly accurate, but they're close

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

Honestly thats a really nice build

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

Yeah

#

RAM is kind of ehh, but for an Intel build, pretty great

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

You can easily OC it if you need, but yea intel doesnt really demand high speeds

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

Doing OC on it seems unnecessary, I don't really see a reason for it

#

Unless you're Wooza

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:16 PM

#

Haha

#

My ram is currently 3600 C16

#

I know I can get it to 3800 C15

ornate ginkgo Apr 14, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

I don't talk about my ram.

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

But I’ve not had any issues at its current speed

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

I feel as if some parts are somewhat a bit of a bottleneck tbh

#

RAM, maybe

#

7700K, probably since it's got 4 cores

#

And nowadays you can get 6 cores for 100$

#

Or 175$ if you're doing Ryzen 3000

#

Or probably 85$ because 1600AF

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

Architecture does have some play in that however

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

Indeed so

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

Unless I’m wrong I think the 7700K is still a better option than a 1600AF

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:19 PM

#

I mean

#

Probably?

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

Oh yea for sure it is

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

7700K is significantly better when it comes to games compared to 1600AF

#

But that's a quick look

#

So

#

Uh

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

Its still a good chip for another year or so

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

Yeah it's siiignificantly better in the latest

#

1600AF is good for like the earlier games

#

Mount and Blade, 1600AF get 6% more whatever the fuck it means

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

I guess

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:22 PM

#

Well it's just a small outlier

#

I'd still recommend a 1600AF though, not much to give a shit about imo

#

1600AF has twice more cache size pretty much

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

For budget performance I’d agree

#

You get more bang for your buck

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

Yeah

#

But if you want a 7700K for who knows what reason

#

Like if you're a babyface doing tests with CPUs against the 7700K while pushing it to the limits

#

linus where r u

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

at home upgrading his streaming setup

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Kek

#

Here's updated, with peripherals lol

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/n8X9Xv

#

The G710 ain't lookin so good anymore

#

Rosewill Ion D21 is pretty neat

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

I just put together the main parts of my list (didnt include extra fans or anything like that). GPU price is way more than I payed but it is what it is I guess.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ynMGtp

My keyb is an Anne Pro 2, but PCPP didnt have that.

#

And now I must disappear because today is busy.

#

woosh

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:32 PM

#

Damn, still got the 1070

#

When are you ever switching out of that lmao

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

Correction: Over half of those parts are way more than what I paid for them.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 4:33 PM

#

You got the money to afford all the other parts BUT THE GPU

#

Ah

#

But still lmao

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:02 PM

#

The 1070 is still a good card though. 👍

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:06 PM

#

Totally

#

It'd be real nice to upgrade for Bearz though

#

All the new parts, but still in the older gen with the 1070 haha

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

I mean, unless you upgrade to a 2080/2070 TI, the performance boost is probably negligible.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

True

#

Doesn't the 2060 Super beat the 1070

#

Yeah by like a good 20%

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

Yeah its something like 1070ti - 1080

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

Well knowing Bearz, he's either getting a 2080 Super or waiting for RTX 3000

solemn orchid Apr 14, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

I'm waiting until rtx 3000 to upgrade again

#

and I'm going all out

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

I mean, I guess I will as well

#

Or it'll be the 3000 Super/4000

solemn orchid Apr 14, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

I can and will do anything necessary to afford a 3080ti

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

4700X with 4070 lol

solemn orchid Apr 14, 2020, 7:14 PM

#

well

#

that's my next point

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

And plus, 3080 might be like

#

Better than a 2080 Ti

solemn orchid Apr 14, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

I'm considering completely rebuilding my system around AMD

#

I'm pretty tired of shittel

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:15 PM

#

lol intel

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Waiting for 3000

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Only worth is the 9900K

#

Or 9700K

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

It should be better than the 2080ti yeah, outside of like 1gb less vram probably from the spec leaks

solemn orchid Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

I have the 8700

#

I really want to make the switch to ryzen

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

Have you seen the comet lake pricing? Its awful

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:16 PM

#

I mean

#

8700 isn't too bad

#

Better than 4 cores lol

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:17 PM

#

The i7 which is basically a 9900k will cost the same as the 3900x is going for right now

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

More cores or Intel 9700K, hm

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

Well the 10700k yeah

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

I might consider sticking with Intel if they won't be overpriced as shit maybe

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:18 PM

#

You have to upgrade the motherboard either way so phaWesker

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

True

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:19 PM

#

Unless Ryzen 4000 has insanely high clock speeds, if you value clock speeds then it's best to stick with intel

#

If you aren't really worried about them too much/dont use many frequency based applications, go with Ryzen

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

As long as I get a good amount of cores and clocks are good enough

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

that's my viewpoint rn

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:20 PM

#

I think they might reach 5ghz on a single core boost for Zen 3

#

At least there's a good chance phaSheva

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

We might expect that

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

It'll be interesting to see

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:23 PM

#

I mean

#

I can't overclock a CPU, can I?

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:23 PM

#

OMEGALUL

#

If it's not a toaster and can reach 5ghz on a single core, there's a high change you could reach an all core 5ghz OC

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

Yeah

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

I don't get the toaster analogy, toaster's aren't the hottest appliance PirateSimon

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:24 PM

#

The sun

#

Or just use liquid nitrogen in the CPU cooler lul

#

But ehh

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

But yeah it won't be hot, cause the 3950x as it is will do 4.7 on a core or two while being cooler than a 9900k so phaSip

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

LULW

#

Shintel just boosting clock speed more

#

I feel bad for them

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

Might be enough of a compelling case to get me to jump up to a 4900X next year if we get high clock speeds

#

kek

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

I will actually consider getting Intel if they ever do less than 14nm

#

But yeah what bearz said

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

Alder lake should be 10nm+ or something

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

But when is Alder lake?

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

Heard it was 2021

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

Hm

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

I think that's yet another socket if I recall correctly

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

Honestly, a 1 GHz difference is hardly worth sacrificing more cores over in a processor.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

A 1GHz difference is pretty big

#

Isn't it?

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

If the IPC increase isn't significant, it could be

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

You probably shave off a few extra seconds in loading time.

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

The thing is Intel has been refining and further pushing clock speeds on 14nm for 5 years

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

But if you plan on only gaming, then I guess Intel is the way to go.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

Exactly what makes it better having higher clocks

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

However, more games are starting to take advantage of multiple cores.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

Yeah

#

Although 7700K still beats 1600AF in newer games

#

It could be the gaming effectiveness Intel has

#

However the hell that one works

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

Sure, but what games? Cause not every game is utilizing more than 2 - 4 cores

#

Battlefield 5 I heard will easily use 10 threads

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

True, but 2-4 cores is pretty much going to consume 75% of your CPU usage.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

GWworkshopAkaShrug Maybe it's just the clock speed helping it

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

Clocking speed just makes it go through processing loads faster.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

And the fact it used to or probably surprisingly still the best single core/threaded thingyyadk

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

What are you looking at, cause I bet it doesn't show you frame stutters

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

Posted link before

#

Actually I didn't

#

Still then, 1600AF is better if you ever need the benefit of newer manufacturing and double the cache

#

https://www.game-debate.com/cpu/index.php?pid=2663&pid2=2448&compare=ryzen-r5-1600-af-vs-core-i7-7700k-4-core-4-2ghz

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

Ohhh. You were comparing the 1600AF and 7700K.

#

I thought you were comparing the 7700k to a 3900x/3950x.

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

This doesn't really tell you much...

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

Then yeah, that 1 GHz difference will probably mean a lot in games.

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

Wait screw this site, it lists Grand Theft Auto VI phaWesker

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

lol

#

I mean, it could be GTA4

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

Well that would IV

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

After all, you can mistype something

#

And both is two same letters, different spot

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:43 PM

#

If you click on it, it shows a fake GTA 6 logo

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:43 PM

#

Wack

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:43 PM

#

What the hell is being tested?

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

And it has the uhh

#

Specs already

#

GTA6 is fucking never happening I bet lol

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

Well it has predicted specs

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

Ah?

#

I mean, I guess it's that

#

But wtf yeah benchmark

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

Yeah, Rock$tar is already making a profit off their DLCs.

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

I think it will, but we won't hear about it for a while

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

Or it could be an assumption of CPU specs

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

They have their cash cow as it is

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

But like

#

GTA is such a heavy game

#

Not older ones ofc

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

I mean, Destiny 2 is already at 100 GB.

#

And they're just shipping out disposable content.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

That's why 500GB ain't going to cut it no more lol

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

Addons really add to the disk space

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

Games like R6S will need that SSD benefit

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

I uninstalled that game cause I got tired of it, I played it for long enough phaWesker

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

Same.

#

Plus, the game is infested with hackers.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

I've still not played a lot, only like 150 hours of it

#

Infested with hackers?

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

I only dipped my toe into the pvp, so its not something I would know about

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

Hasn't been that bad

#

It might be an older time of R6 you're talking about

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

PvP is an utter nightmare in Destiny 2. People on Twitter are even complaining.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

lmao

#

But people are playing it, no?

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

Plus, Bungie doesn't know shit about PC games, so they have no anti-cheat.

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

Oof

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

Only like <75,000.

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Allo, how much PSU power is needed to run 9900k + 2080ti setup?

#

would 600W be enough

#

to be exact 600W 80+ gold

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Depends on if you oc or not

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

not

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Then yeah

eternal cairn Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Why no overclocking?

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

It would be enough, but forget about overclocking

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

It'd be a little tight though

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

Kinda pointless to have the unclocked CPU just to not overclock it

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

I'd recommend 750W bronze I guess

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

And if you're spending that much on components get a nice Seasonic 800w unit anyways

abstract kite Apr 14, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

im actually getting 3080ti

#

not 2080ti

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:49 PM

@vapid crypt lets say if i OC both 9900k and 3080ti.. would the 600W be enough then if they are like keeping it 250W

I mean I could give you a link to a list of gold fully modular units I suppose

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

Semi modular is almost identical to fully modular though 🤔

#

The only difference is a cable you have to use anyways is always plugged in

fleet canopy Apr 14, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

The G5 apparently has a somewhat bigger fan, less noisy for more air transportation?

vapid crypt Apr 14, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

Basically the essential cables are hard wired on semi that's the only difference

charred nexus Apr 14, 2020, 8:00 PM

I mean if you care about noise I can wholeheartedly recommend the Be Quiet Straight Power 11

#

Love this thing

lilac geyser Apr 14, 2020, 9:15 PM

#

you kids and you're modular power supplies, when i first started building computers there was no such thing

#

and the old molex IDE power connectors were huge! have 4 extra ones you arent using cause you dont have 5 hard drives? better hope there was a place to put them

#

i zip tied so many of them and just left them at teh bottom of the case

#

because cases didnt really have a back panel and room for you to tuck them in

#

not that it mattered because you were going to have like a 2 inch wide IDE data cable running across the mobo anyway

something like this: https://ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1VRHSSXXXXXctXVXXq6xXFXXXv/40-Pin-15-cm-Flat-Ribbon-Cable-Male-to-Female-PATA-Hard-Drive-IDE-Data-Extension.jpg

You can look into a 750W Gold certificated

generally I would stick to 750w

I didn't think my membrane keyboard was that bad until I switched to a mechanical and realised why I had had such troubles counterstrafing in CS.

#

As my membrane lagged behind in inputs, making it hold down keys for longer than I held down the key myself.

Modern membranes aren't bad, but they are not as accurate as mechanical input, when you try to achieve highest possible accuracy.

Still kinda new to pc so don't know how to do that

proper wren Apr 15, 2020, 7:41 PM

http://deadpixelbuddy.com/

#

basically to see if there's a pixel that's not responding to the color

#

Manufactures will take back defect monitors depending on how many dead pixels there are. I know Amazon might replace it if there is one or two. Asus around 4-5+ etc.

I would recommend either a Be Quiet! Dark Rock 4 Pro (I have it on my rig + a 3700X) and it keeps me well within spec.

Alternatively you can get a Noctua NH-d15 which is also a fantastic cooler

they're both basically the same in performance level

abstract kite Apr 16, 2020, 3:57 AM

#

If you don't have low profile ram (like me) and assuming you have the space for it, the DRP4 is the best cooler I can recommend.

LPX is a low profile ram made by Corsair.

might have those dimensions wrong but they're very close.

I think that's true? I don't think that's the case for the DRP4

it does extend over the ram though

okie before you purchase let me see if you have enough fan headers

#

what case do you have

Fuck if I know honestly xD

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

abstract kite Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

This use to be a pre-built.

jade ermine Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

You can just walk in to closest pharmacy and get bottle of iso from there

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

^

#

basically like $2-8USD

jade ermine Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

#

you don't need it much, smallest bottle they have will serve you well

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:42 PM

if it was a prebuilt does it have any logos outside of it lol

One on the back, One on the Top, Two on the Side.

Don't mind the reflection.

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

atx case

abstract kite Apr 16, 2020, 2:48 PM

#

So are you looking to see if it the items would fit?

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:49 PM

#

It will fit

#

is more like the rgb header concern

#

also do you have any front clearance for the rgb fans?

abstract kite Apr 16, 2020, 2:50 PM

#

I should have plenty of room

#

The fans inside this case are 120mm... so is the LL Fans... should be enough, right?

#

Can't be to much bigger I would think.

proper wren Apr 16, 2020, 2:51 PM

#

as long as they fit in the case with the correct size yes

#

gonna need to nappies, squirrel can help you if he has the time

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

pardon me if this doesn't count as "tech talk", but what exactly does it mean that gtfo is p2p?

fleet canopy Apr 16, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

Player to player

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

afaik p2p is everyone with everyone, but the game has a host? doesn't that make the host basically a server?

fleet canopy Apr 16, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

It's the player hosting

#

They don't use any dedicated servers to host the lobby is pretty much what it means

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

but that doesn't make it count as p2p, it can also mean that the server is hosted on a player's computer in the same process as the game

fleet canopy Apr 16, 2020, 7:11 PM

#

Pretty much yeah

#

It's hosted by the player

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:12 PM

#

but in that case it's not peer to peer

finite violet Apr 16, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

The client-server model can be mixed with the p2p model

#

Considering that, if the host lags, the game lags for everyone. While if a non-host lags, only that specific person will lag.
I'm pretty convinced that the host does play as a "server" part for this game.

#

That however doesn't mean that the clients can only communicate with the server, a p2p connection is still possible where you're exchanging data with other clients

late sorrel Apr 16, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

to my knowledge one player does act as a server for the other players

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

So some data goes p1-host-p2 while other would go p1-p2? That seems really weird

finite violet Apr 16, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

Well, using client-server to send something from client 1 to client 2 would be slower

#

having one server allows that specific server to be in control

#

I honestly can't help much with this because I only learned the basics of networking

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

I don't know the specifics but having to send shit to all 3 teammates instead of to just one and let the best internet (host) do it doesn't sound faster in practice

#

Idk shit about networking either

#

But that's probably why I'm so confused

balmy hornet Apr 16, 2020, 7:54 PM

#

i get fps drops to like 50 on low settings gtx 1060 3gb. any ideas? @proper wren

finite violet Apr 16, 2020, 7:54 PM

#

p2p doesn't mean sending it to everyone

#

you send it to whoever needs it

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:55 PM

#

Sounds like a ton of work to get that optimized

finite violet Apr 16, 2020, 7:55 PM

#

Yeh

#

client-server is easier to implement

balmy hornet Apr 16, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

i'll just play valorant till poddy responds

tall herald Apr 16, 2020, 7:56 PM

#

Wish i could see direct comparisons and play for myself with both versions

vapid crypt Apr 16, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

@balmy hornet If its dropping when enemies are spawning from an alarm or a scout, that's actually fairly typical

Pro Tip: Turn off Game Mode in the Windows settings .

#

Ironic that it helps run games better off than on on.

hey peeps i have a pc part picker build for under $1200, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QHYn27

the problem is, some of the parts are offsale

so what do i do

proper wren Apr 17, 2020, 2:57 PM

i'll just play valorant till poddy responds
@balmy hornet Like El Demonio said, depending on the amount of enemies spawning from alarms and is also possible that the 1060 3gb is a bottle neck to the r5 2600 (Possible). If you want to save up on graphics card budget you can go for 5600xt if you're going full 1080p gameplay or 1660 super. 1660ti is great as well but you're paying additional $40 for extra 1% performance and you won't be using gddr6 and extra memory speed. No compromises and future upgrades you can go for RTX 2060 and call it a day

fleet canopy Apr 17, 2020, 3:01 PM

So you say some aren't on the store or anything like that?

frosty wharf Apr 17, 2020, 3:01 PM

Those prices on a 2070 is a joke wut

#

I only see them at 750-850$ >.>

#

There is a different MSI one, same 2070 at a 500$ price

#

If you can't see it available on PCPP, just search it

proper wren Apr 17, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

The 2070 prices is a very big joke lol

fleet canopy Apr 17, 2020, 3:04 PM

Yeah haha

#

I can however change it to something good with 1500$ if you want

proper wren Apr 17, 2020, 3:04 PM

#

I seen some of it go down as $450 CAD on MSI

#

even $420

frosty wharf Apr 17, 2020, 3:04 PM

is it going to be 1440p gaming?

I'm getting a build that'll easily do 1440p 144hz loool

Want it with some RGB or nah?
