Mr1111 says my parts are compatible but I think I'll have spacing issues. Meshify 2 case with top mounted AIO. The way I understand it - I'd like to go with a 420 but then I lose front top fan and rear fan and I won't have clearance for my memory (MSI EDGE Z690 with G.skill Trident Z RGB).
hollow thorn
Memory should be fine width wise
honest rock
Ooops .. I meant to say pcpartpicker says my parts are compatible not Mr1111.

So I think I have to go 360mm.
frosty bronze
I would say that too until my lil 2060KO, i7 9700k and a gross amount of rgb fans still stayed under 400w
which is really a miracle

It looks like meshify ii can do 420mm top mount without losing top fan
honest rock
Where do you see that? I'm looking here -- https://support.fractal-design.com/support/solutions/articles/4000174746-meshify-2
And I think with the 420mm .. my memory is too tall -- it's 45mm tall so it sounds like it would interfere with the 420.

Ram height tends to be measured from the bottom of the ram stick to the top, but when ram is installed into the motherboard, it's the width you're really measuring
Although, I can't say for sure
Hm, rereading it and looking at the case again, it might actually have to deal with height
honest rock
Yup. I think I'm limited to the 360mm. I don't suppose I am losing too much.
Would be nice to go 420mm but I doubt I will overclock.
hollow thorn
Doesn't matter that much at these kind of sizes
honest rock
So here's my final build Mr1111 -- much of which you helped with since I have been asking quesitons/learning/obsessing about this for 2 weeks now. i9-12900k, MSI EDGE Z690 DDR4, G.skill Trident RGB 2x32, Evga Supernova G6 1000w, Nvidia 3090 FE, Sabrent 1tb Rocket M.2 SSD, Arctic Liquid Freezer ii 360mm top mounted, Meshify 2 case with 3 Fractal Design 140mm fans in front, and 1 140mm Artic P14 in rear.
If necessary, I bought a 5-pack of Arctic p14 fans so I have extra and can add 2 to the bottom as well.
hollow thorn
Sounds fine
granite meadow
Which model number should I trust?
hollow thorn
Doesn't the case come with a rear fan though?
hollow thorn
Which model number should I trust?
I'd trust the stickers on the sticks more, but they're at the same xmp so they're similar models anyways, it could also have a different model number for the kit of 2x16gb sticks instead of the singular sticks
honest rock
Doesn't the case come with a rear fan though?
It does. I'm moving it to the front so I have all 3 fractal fans in front and putting the Arctic p14 in the rear
granite meadow
Alright. So I should be fine? The model# sticker on the outside is what's compatible with my motherboard and I just wanted to double check
hollow thorn
Yea, qvl doesn't matter much anyways

What does this mean? The G.Skill Trident Z RGB 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory operating voltage of 1.45 V exceeds the Intel Alder Lake CPU recommended maximum of 1350 mv+5% (1417.5 mv).

The thermal paste won't be at max efficiency until you've used it for a while, but that'll happen over time anyway. Besides that, "burning in" doesn't matter.
honest rock
Cool. If I'm going to upgrade the thermal pads on my 3090, do I need to do that right away? Will the OEM fans become more difficult to remove over time?
grizzled bloom
Nah that can be done any time. And unless you're mining you probably won't need to change them anyway.
honest rock
Now I just need to figure out how to wire and setup all the fans.
grizzled bloom
The really bad quality pads will get a little greasy over time
Fan splitters are your friends
honest rock
Should be easy to clean off with a little rubbing alcohol or is that a no-no?
Fan splitters?
grizzled bloom
Isopropyl alcohol is preferred, high % like 99
You don't need a fan hub usually, with low power fans like p12 you can run several from a single header
The splitter lets you do that
honest rock
My case has a fan hub I think -- Meshify 2
grizzled bloom
That'll help with cable management then
honest rock
Has 3 fractal design 140s (non RGB) and I also picked up a 5 pack of Artic 140s (non RGB) and then I have the 3x120 fans from my Arctic 360 aio (a-rgb)
grizzled bloom
You could run all those on 2 headers if you had to
honest rock
I need to figure all that out -- like where does the pump wire to and where do the fans wire to, etc to optimize the cooling/noise and figure out the rgb control for the 360. None of this stuff existed when I build my last computer 20+ years ago.
grizzled bloom
There's usually a pump header, and the aio fans go on the cpu fan header. The other fans can use any other available header.
honest rock
the case fans get set to DC in the bios and everything else (arctic p14s and aio fans) get set to pwm?
grizzled bloom
If it's 3 pins, dc
4 pins are pwm

Input on 10-11600K + $25 to have a 10700F ? (knowing the non-K and 10gen quirks). 10gen on 5xx chipsets means losing the top m.2 slot, but no biggie I'd say. 2 extra cores seems worth it.

I do agree with the same aspect. I have a 10900K instead the 11900K or 11700K. just loose is the first M.2 slot. The I7 has more cores and threads. Just a bit slower

Cool. Yea the i7 stock turbo closes the gap on single core performance anyways, and bet I could adjust those settings up a tad if I wanted. Thnx.

Do you guys and gals know of any mini it-x motherboards compatible with a Ryzen 5 5600G?

any b550 itx should work, along with just about any x570 itx with a display out
would be safe to assume b450 itx would do too

It says this tho
vital field
its fine, just means you have to update the bios if the motherboard you get has an old bios on it
turbid radish
How do you do that?
vital field
if you do have to do it, then youd just have to go to the mobo's product page and then find their bios updates and get the latest one or most stable one and put on a usb and then plug it into the mobo's bios usb port if it has one
vital field
if you have no way of accessing it other than your phone then oof but should be easy to do
theres also tutorials online if you need further instructions or help

Uhh lag is the internet connection but you should be fine, games usually get more gpu intensive rather than cpu

Most games in cpu reviews are still not tons faster with 8core cpus vs 6core models (10/11gen). 8+ cores is a safe bet nowadays though for sure, just for future stuff or multitasking. How's this for a laugh. Though I'd give my current soon to be spare pc a thread boost for "cheap".

This great "budget" pick, probably less than $130 when purchased instead of $160ish msrp. My cpu actually isn't too bad.

Ecores would jack up their price a bit & sort of require Win11. Yep, it's funny how no Ecores is how 11600 or 11700 actually beats even the 12400 in certain tasks, but obviously not most games. 13gen & possible future 12gen cpus will be interesting.

Apex Legends is the only game I have that makes cpu go 95-100% a lot, lol. For $40 thought I'd see if extra 4 threads helps any, but idk for sure.

I'm really confused on whether apex is CPU or GPU intensive
Idk, and my 2nd-best 2016ish GPU is for sure picking up the slack a lot. All GPU related stuff is almost maxed out and cpu related stuff is on low. I easily get 120-150 FPS (personal frame cap, 60Hz display also) but cpu is literally 99% usage. Huge map is a part of it I figure. Well, it's a 10 yr old quad core that doesn't even have Hyperthreading. All other games I have, cpu related settings can be much higher, even Doom Eternal.

Depends on the comparison. Modern mobos with the Intel AX210 or similar chip are really good & no doubt way better than many usb adapters. Noticing much of an upgrade is also a variable. W/o builtin wifi, there's tons of pcie adapters with more than 1 antenna to use that should outclass a normal usb model.

I prefer the idea of having an add-in-card for WiFi rather than USB or integrated, but there's a case to be made for either
If what you have works for you then perfect
The WiFi dongles I've had that actually worked did the job just fine, and I hope they continue to

I'm using a zen cpu actually, I'm looking to upgrade my mobo to ATX , my case to an actual case with cable management space (full tower if Gog permits), more ram and more storage in the next 6 months, some of the current wi-fi boards are about 10-20 usd more expensive than the non Wi-Fi counterparts, or do they have any other cool features like better quality capacitors, etc?

Honestly no point getting a new motherboard without a new cpu

The problem is that my current video card is eating up the space for 2 sata ports xD and i hate using microATX because is so small and my hands are kinda stupid

I mean if you remove the gpu you should be able to fit the cable in

I mean, the gpu goes over the sata port and completely hides it... The other 2 almost touch the fan but a little zip tie made it work with no fan scraping

Yeah that's what i figured, usually there's still space between it and gpu tho

The two things that i do want to change is the case and the storage, or upgrade would be the correct word.

Tried it, my other 512 gb hdd is used as external because i couldn't keep it without the GPU almost tearing the PCIe port
vast meadow
Ahh rip
hollow siren
Yep, that's why i want a bigger mobo xD
My ryzen 5 5600x is cool for my current cpu, don't see myself buying a new one in less than 5 years

N should be fine if you just updated bios, Y if you swapped CPU
rancid harness
now it's going past the ASRock screen and not booting to windows
vast meadow
Enter bios when booting up and check boot priority
rancid harness
yeah it's my ssd
dense frost
is there a new error message? or is the screen just blank?
vast meadow
But you can get into bios right?
rancid harness
yes
vast meadow
Uhmm can you send a screenshot of your boot priorities in bios?
rancid harness
vast meadow
Can you hit enter to show your options
vast meadow
In my experience it should say ssd then windows boot or something after it/before it
rancid harness
vast meadow
Hmm, was it always like that?
dense frost
clear cmos?
rancid harness
I changed xmp to 3000mhz instead of 3200mhz
and it booted?
which is weird because I updated bios and it allowed me to boot 3200mhz earlier with my Ryzen 5 2600
am I supposed to clear CMOS after changing the cpu?
vast meadow
What is your new cpu?
vast meadow
am I supposed to clear CMOS after changing the cpu?
Shouldn't need to but if it doesn't work no harm
rancid harness
is there anything specific to do after changing CPU?
vast meadow
Well i would enable precision boost overdrive
rancid harness
how do i do so
