??

chrome iris
#

Haha cheap psu on expensive components haha

#

No

#

Don’t get a cheap one

#

Get maybe Corsair RM, RMx, that kinda thing

#

Look in the pins of this channel. There’s a power supply tier list. Shoot for tier A. Tier B+ is bare minimum for this system

vocal talon
#

that mwe is like 100 or something

granite lantern
#

and you get more issues with a cheap psu

willow hollow
#

leave me and my tt smart alone >:((

bold forge
#

can anyone recommend me a 650 wat gold psu

vocal tartan
#

this one should be good

sturdy valve
#

welp help... i am kind overwhelmed over pc cases

#

i am looking for one to replace TT 37 view.

#

i like black interior and white exterior.

#

more likely middle size to carry around.

bold forge
#

well thats the on i was going to get but its out of stock

meager narwhal
#

What’s the best case for ATX mobo psu shroud and 240mm aio

chrome iris
#

uh no

#

H510 has bad airflow

bold forge
#

ik

#

just relized

#

nvm

scenic lance
#

I’ve decided on getting the lian li lancool 2 mesh in white for my upcoming build

#

Looks so clean

slim venture
#

Be quiet pure base 500DX >>

scenic lance
#

nah

#

lian li looks better

#

and is cheaper

elfin trout
#

o11

scenic lance
#

nah too big for my desk space

#

plus quite expensive

clear swallow
chrome iris
#

Lol I have been eyeing that for a while. Have yet to use it

#

But here's what I'd pick instead:

#

or

clear swallow
#

yeah i looked at that one, but it was hard to tell how the airflow was

chrome iris
#

it's mesh

clear swallow
#

ohh, the pictures almost make it look like a glass front

#

interesting

chrome iris
#

This second one looks to have rough cable management, but dang good price for what it is

clear swallow
#

yeah

#

i'm looking for something with at least a couple of front fans, a rear fan, and support for a 240mm aio along the top

#

which is why the rosewill one initially caught my eye

#

especially since i was thinking of a blue theme anyway

#

but i like the other ones too

#

and rgb is always a bonus in case i change my mind later

chrome iris
#

well the rosewill has them blue fans, and a mesh front, so if you want it, go for it

clear swallow
#

ohhh the sama case is tricksy

#

the fans are hard locked to rainbow rgb

#

not addressable

chrome iris
#

oh dang

golden kestrel
#

I'm a bit late but that Rosewill seems decent airflow wise. Plus 4 fans so... nice

clear swallow
#

yeah, 4 included fans is pretty nice

#

and i'll be putting rgb onto the aio i have, and just setting them to blue more than likely

#

so i think the rosewill case might work

#

i'm finally getting a pack of cable ties as well

golden kestrel
#

At 55 bucks it seem like a steal

clear swallow
#

sips water bottle

willow hollow
#

i had a similar one

#

a 240mm rad didnt fit on top despite advertisements

#

i had to switch to a 120mm

clear swallow
#

hmm

#

i'm going to be trying to use a 240

vocal tree
#

I think I'll uhh

#

Buy a Pure Power 11 500w

#

B&H isn't getting new System Power U9s, and I can get the 500w one for cheaper than the CX 650 that is in stock on Newegg

#

They're getting new Pure Power 11s in 7-10 business days or so they say

swift portal
#

Got a 500w 80+ white... which isn’t high quality of any means, but it’s Thermaltake... would it still be decent?

elfin trout
#

What model

#

Tt smart is really bad

#

Others I don't remember

hollow vine
#

will a vega 56 fit in the gamdias talos e1 black mini tower case ?

#

and a cx750m psu

vocal tartan
#

how large is ur graphics card in mm

#

what i'm seeing that case can fit up to a 260mm card

hollow vine
#

Card Dimension (cm) 29 x 13 x 4

#

idk what that is in mm

vocal tartan
#

pretty sure the card is 290mm then

#

don't think it will fit

#

theres probably a way that you'll be able to fit it but i'm not an expert

hollow vine
#

dang gotta keep looking then

#

I dont want to have to shave anything or do anything to the case

vocal tartan
#

looking for a gpu or case?

hollow vine
#

case

vocal tartan
#

you want it to be micro atx or

hollow vine
#

if possible yeah easier to move

vocal tartan
#

i'll see what i can find

hollow vine
#

you the man Yawy

vocal tartan
#

any specific color you want the case to be so i can narrow it down?

hushed yoke
#

fractal design 7 looks very nice

#

so much attention to detail

#

i love the little clip for the rear exhaust fan so the cable doesnt go anywhere

#

the removable modular pieces in the PSU shroud are nice instead of leaving a hole or just not having the option

#

rubber grommets look nice, wish there was a vertical gpu mount built it

#

in*

fickle herald
#

Fractal really does seem to put a lot of thought into their designs. I need to try one someday.

elfin trout
#

Their high end cases for look neat

swift portal
#

Damn yeah it’s TT smart

#

Just need it for a Ryzen 3 3100 and a 5500 xt, but I’ll be able to upgrade it soon

swift portal
#

Never mind, just gonna buy a new PSU that’s at least bronze rated

bronze raven
#

i have a 500W power supply and a 1660 super but i want to upgrade to at least a 2070 super. should i stick with my 500w psu or which one should i get?

urban tulip
#

What cpu?

scenic lance
#

@bronze raven 500 should be fine

bronze raven
#

ryzen 7 3700x

#

@urban tulip a ryzen 7 3700x

scenic lance
#

Most systems with those specs usually draw around 400 watts of power in total so you good

bronze raven
#

oh ok

#

thanks

#

but what about if i wanna upgrade to a 2080 super

#

then upgrade the psu?

scenic lance
#

Yeah probably

silent zodiac
#

i want that new asus rog white psu so bad.

#

189$ though. pretty steep for psu huh?

scenic lance
#

Not that steep

fickle herald
#

Depends on the psu, but nah not too steep

golden kestrel
#

depends on what your powering

#

If you got a system that requires that kinda psu then you'll most likely have a case that has a psu shroud so your not gonna see it anyway.

#

Just get a rmx and some cable extensions tbh

dull steeple
eager monolith
#

Take a look at this review. He does very through reviews with themals and the like

dull steeple
#

ty

hollow trail
#

how bad is the nzxt h710i

eager monolith
#

🙂

#

Same one as the h710i except this version doesn't have the fancy rgb

hollow trail
#

lol but rgb is great

eager monolith
#

Well yh, but this review is basically a review of the same case

#

So you can see how good/bad it is

novel delta
calm jolt
#

Tier B • Recommended for low-end systems with dGPU* R.I.P

#

Im using an rx570... But I mean At this point I can't complain about the performance. I JUST got my computer built, Yesterday.

#

It is wonders of performance/quality

swift portal
#

Anyone wanna buy an 80+ white PSU? lol

elfin trout
#

no

swift portal
#

Im probably just gonna keep it as a backup in case my newer PSU ends up dying

viscid halo
#

Realistically speaking, how much wattage do I need for a system running a Ryzen 5 3600, Sapphire 5600xt?

elfin trout
#

prob 500

viscid halo
#

Should I just go for 600 then if I plan on adding a AIO?

elfin trout
#

AIOs draw like 10w of power lol

viscid halo
#

oh lol

#

so 550 would be substantial?

elfin trout
viscid halo
#

cause i was thinking that.

spiral pawn
#

Hello

elfin trout
#

I like amp better for the price

spiral pawn
#

If I order the Phanteks Eclipse P400S, is it possible to deliver to Morocco?

elfin trout
#

from Newegg?

viscid halo
#

What does AMP do?

elfin trout
#

Phanteks amp

#

it's a PSU model

viscid halo
#

oh just brand wise alright

#

thanks for the help.

spiral pawn
#

Yes

elfin trout
#

doesn't look like you can ship directly to morocco

spiral pawn
#

Thank you for your reply

elfin trout
#

You're welcome

fickle herald
#

There's a uk site isn't there? They might?

bleak wigeon
#

I am tryin to build a system with approx 3334 Watts. I chose a 650W PSU and added to my PCpartpicker list. But its show the below message in the compatibility notes:
"Compatibility Notes
Note:The Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector but the SeaSonic FOCUS Plus Gold 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply does not. This connector is used to supply additional 12V current to the motherboard. While the system will likely still run without it, higher current demands such as extreme overclocking or large video card current draws may require it."

Should i go with the 650 W or 750W?
Thanks

elfin trout
#

Ignore it

bleak wigeon
#

thats what i thought at first. thanks tho

elfin trout
#

Extra stuff that arnt required are extra.

bleak wigeon
#

yup

#

another thing. which one should i go for : Seasonic focus 650 gold or corsair RM650x gold??

lofty pewter
worthy hemlock
#

Is the nr400 a solid case? Or is there a better case around 60-70 (i dont mind atx, but i plan on having a matx mobo)

river oracle
#

can someone ping me if they know where to buy cheap case around $60 that comes with silent fans and is actually legit ?

elfin trout
#

Focus g

clear swallow
#

i just wish the focus g had a psu shroud

elfin trout
#

It's a 50$ case

#

Can't expect that much from it

clear swallow
#

eh, other cases in that price range have them, just a nice to have that's all

upper zinc
#

h510 elite or a meshify c? and why?

scenic lance
#

@upper zinc meshify c because it’s easier to build in and has far better aircooling than the h51p

#

*h510

#

But if you don’t really care about aircooling and are planning to watercool most components and the h510 looks better

vocal talon
#

h510 doesn’t really have great water cooling support

hollow trail
#

lmao the h510 also doesnt have good air flow

willow hollow
#

but it looks clean

#

and for 70$

hollow trail
#

no matter what even if liquid cooled you still need fans in it to cool the rads also its $100+ for me lmao

willow hollow
#

there are holes in the left side of the case

#

that help with airflow a bit

hollow trail
#

it doesnt bring in much air flow my dude

willow hollow
#

yeah so dont bring a high end system in there

#

if you're going to be running a 3600 with a 2060 super

#

youll be fine

hollow trail
#

lmao noe of the nzxt cases have good air flow

#

and that is high end lmao

willow hollow
#

the case airflow is enough for it

hollow trail
#

lmao now nessesarily

willow hollow
#

?

hollow trail
#

not*

willow hollow
#

the H510 with 4 case fans kept a 3600 and 2070 super under 70 degrees under load

#

no clue what youre on about

hollow trail
#

lmao thats still hot

willow hollow
#

under load?

#

I'd say thats pretty good

#

considering an air cooler

hollow trail
#

lmao

willow hollow
#

lol you have nothing to back up your bias against nzxt

hollow trail
#

lmao bias against tf you talking about i was just saying it has bad air flow but okay buddy

willow hollow
#

lmao noe of the nzxt cases have good air flow

#

and i was arguing that it was enough for mid range systems?

#

and all youve said to that is lmao

hollow trail
#

lol

willow hollow
#

thats a new one

scenic lance
#

They are fine for mid range

#

I would say up to the 2070

#

Not super

willow hollow
#

i had the gigabyte super variant running in there

#

granted, i did have the max amount of fans it could hold

scenic lance
#

The case is just terribly optimised

#

Yeah

willow hollow
#

thing is, no case will beat it in terms of looks in that price range

hollow trail
#

lmao probably spent more on fans than the case was

scenic lance
#

If you want a case that looks cool and has great airflow I would recommend either the TD500 or the Lancool II mesh

willow hollow
#

i paid 15$ for 2 fans tyvm :))

scenic lance
#

Both fairly cheap

#

15 bucks for 2 fans?

willow hollow
#

yea

#

actually 3

hollow trail
#

what fans you getting for 15 bucks

willow hollow
#

but i kept 1

scenic lance
#

They must be loud af

willow hollow
scenic lance
#

I’m guessing either 80mil or 120 mil

willow hollow
#

120

hollow trail
#

lmao

scenic lance
#

Damn

hollow trail
#

those are some chinese brand oof

scenic lance
#

That’s the same price as 1 no tuna

willow hollow
#

nah uphere is reliable

scenic lance
#

*noctua

#

I would still spend the extra and get a noctua

hollow trail
#

at least you didnt get the nzxt fans for the nzxt case lmao its like $40 for one fan

scenic lance
#

Yeah what a scam

#

But they are actually pretty decent fans

upper zinc
#

i see so much hate on the NZXT lineup cuz of airflow, but no other case manufacturer makes nice/clean cases like that imo

scenic lance
#

Yeah

willow hollow
#

its like corsair

upper zinc
#

id be getting the H510Elite with a kraken x63 cooler

willow hollow
#

@upper zinc for matx, check out darkflash

scenic lance
#

England lian li has some good looking pens

#

*ones

willow hollow
#

darkflash are nzxt cases with mesh sometimes

hollow trail
#

me oer here waiting until next year when i can afford to build a setup that costs as much as a lot of people make in like 6 months

willow hollow
#

bruh

upper zinc
#

yeah, im rocking a phantom 410 with a 4770k lol so i want a nice clean looking pc

willow hollow
#

nzxt h510 is the best looking one for the budget

#

thats why i like the case

hollow trail
#

i mean the money thts paying for it is from a law suit and its money that i havent had to use for 9 years mays well use it when its put into y personal account

upper zinc
#

like im reading people who have the h510 elite are happy with the case. but reviews online from people who dont have it say the thermals suck based on a video

willow hollow
#

unless you're going extreme high end, past the 1500$ mark, it seems fine

upper zinc
#

my budgets 2k for the build, 3700x, x63, 2070 super, 32gb ram

willow hollow
#

2k cad is 1.5k usd right?

#

or around there at least?

upper zinc
#

roughly yeah

hollow trail
#

tbh i like how the nzxt cases look and there build quality is decent but the air flow in them sucks but all the cases with great airflow are ugly af but like anyway i have a budget of ike 5k for just the pc its self when i get the money in my name so most likely ill be getting a 3080 ti when its out and probably a 4000 series ryzen 9

willow hollow
#

@hollow trail then u can afford a really expensive case :p

upper zinc
#

ideally im waiting too for the next gen cpus and gpus too

willow hollow
#

i was talking about people with under 80$ to spend for the case

hollow trail
#

lol the case i plan on getting is like 250$cad

#

lol the h710i lets hope it lets the 3080 breathe

minor portalBOT
#
EnglandPJ#3776 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

hollow trail
#

shame

#

shame

upper zinc
#

woops 😢

hollow trail
#

shame on you

upper zinc
#

i meant to say

hollow trail
#

england is my city

upper zinc
#

i asked the ppl on bapc and they pooped on me for wanting rgb ram and the h510elite lol

hollow trail
#

whats your budget

willow hollow
#

they only care about perf

upper zinc
#

2500cad (with a monitor)

willow hollow
#

i'd personally sacrifice 10 degrees of temps for a blean case

upper zinc
hollow trail
#

oof year ill brb i can help you there given that im from canada as well lol what would you like to play and what colour scheme are you wanting

upper zinc
#

yeah, for something thats gonna sit on my desk for 5ish years i want something that looks nice

#

Black and white preferably, gpu and cpu can be jusst filler for now, im waiting for next gen

eager monolith
#

i'd personally sacrifice 10 degrees of temps for a blean case
Yeah, to a point... not gonna buy that one case where there are fans mounted against a solid side panel tho lol

upper zinc
#

^ yeah lol

hollow trail
#

what games and things are you wanting to do with it lmao

upper zinc
#

Oh, light games (tomb raider, fifa, forza etc). and heavy workstation (adobe suite, fl studio, pro tools)

hollow trail
#

aight

eager monolith
#

So ryzen

scenic lance
#

Tomb raider ain’t a light game lmao

hollow trail
#

lmao lighter than rdr2

scenic lance
#

True

#

Wayyyy lighter than ac odyssey

hollow trail
#

im thinking a 2070 and a ryzen 7 given that i have like 1800 to work with for the pc its self

#

1800 cad

eager monolith
#

@upper zinc I would save yourself $30 and get the MP34. Slightly slightly worse r/w, but not much

#

And $30 to put elsewhere

upper zinc
#

wait is that gun? LOL

eager monolith
#

wait nvm, canada prices for mp34 are wack

hollow trail
#

whats a decent ssd tho for a reasonable amount it doesnt have to be very big like 500g should be fine with a 2tb hdd

upper zinc
#

well i was told the ADATA is amazing specs. has DRAM and is comparable to the evo pro

hollow trail
#

hows the mx500

eager monolith
#

Yeah, it's a solid choice if you can't get the mp34 for $134

MX500 is sata, much slower

#

But it isn't the ADATA that makes it good

hollow trail
#

its 150 for 1tb lmao the samsung is 100 for 500gb

eager monolith
#

IK, but don't buy for the brand, buy for the specs 🙂

#

Like not all ADATA drives are good, get the cheapest one with the specs you want/need 🙂

hollow trail
#

imma just stick with the mx500 given that its cheaper technically

eager monolith
#

How much are you paying? Or do you already have it

hollow trail
#

lmao this is that other dudes lmao

#

he said his budget was 2500cad including monitor lmao

upper zinc
#

oh ur speccing out a pc for me lol

hollow trail
#

yeah lmao you should see the psu tho its over kill

upper zinc
#

LOL, why?

hollow trail
#

because im bored

#

and like its 850w

#

for a system that only need like 600max

#

i changed the psu lmao

eager monolith
#

$140 is too much for that drive imo

hollow trail
#

oof

#

if 140 is to much then the actual price of 150 is way to much lmao

upper zinc
#

Solid build, i think the 3 cases im torn between are the: h510elite, meshify c, and the Corsair iCUE 465X (in that order)

eager monolith
#

I'd just spend the $20 to get a better drive or go with a better value sata

upper zinc
#

My friend raised a good point, he said i should just pick the nicest out of the cases. The 5deg difference between the meshify and h510 is gonna be negligible

hollow trail
#

lol the case has great airflow tho lmao

#

pretty doesnt always mean it will let your hardware last 5+ years lmao

upper zinc
#

yeah, just not a big fan of the phanteks p300/p400 cases

hollow trail
#

neither a i dont get me wrong lmao it just has great air flow lmao

eager monolith
#

Wait, that monitor is overpriced

upper zinc
#

yeah i know, that seems to be the tradeoff with a lot of the cases i find online. airflow vs aesthetic, i feel like the meshify is a good balance

hollow trail
#

how?

eager monolith
#

Like TN for over $500

#

Not good

#

I spend $450 for 1440p IPS 165hz

hollow trail
#

its a 165hz 27" with 0.4ms response tie

#

and thats canadian

eager monolith
#

Yeah, but still

#

I got a tn display like that for 200USD

hollow trail
#

200 usd is a lot more cad than youd think

upper zinc
#

268cad

hollow trail
#

shhhhhh

eager monolith
upper zinc
#

😂😂

hollow trail
#

dont tell him

eager monolith
#

That has a 1ms ips 1440p for less

upper zinc
#

oh i dont even need a hdd luckily, bringing my 2 1tbs over from my current build

eager monolith
#

Oh, nice

#

Spend that on better ram

upper zinc
#

Also, im an absolute noob. whats the diff between b450 and b550?

hollow trail
#

lmao generations

eager monolith
#

b550 is newer and supports pcie 4.0, not really needed unless you need the very fastest (and pricey) ssds

upper zinc
#

what uses pcie4.0?

vocal talon
#

some gpus and nvme drives

eager monolith
#

Stuff like the Sabrent Rocket 4.0

#

and that

hollow trail
#

will next gen gpu's tho?

dull steeple
#

for you

eager monolith
#

crucial p1 tho? also, he already has hhd

dull steeple
#

but i suggest you wait for ampere

#

ok

#

get rid of hdd

#

crucial p1 is good

#

and cheaper than the one he got

upper zinc
#

Sweet, thanks guys 🙂 theres sooo many options out there 😂😂

dull steeple
#

^

eager monolith
hollow trail
#

the ram tho lmao he has 2500cad to spend on the pc and the monitor just bring it down to 2.2k cad to leae room for next gen prices

eager monolith
#

Well if he wants to wait, prices will change and this list will be obsolete

upper zinc
#

yeah, gpu and cpus will change im pretty sure. but cases, ssds etc i wanted to spec out prices

hollow trail
#

lmao ive looked at these prices almost everyday for the past 16 months they dont change very much

dull steeple
#

@eager monolith 32 gb is overkill unless hes doing editing

upper zinc
#

so this has given me a solid feeling for what i can buy with that price range

#

@dull steeple i will be with Adobe

eager monolith
#

@eager monolith 32 gb is overkill unless hes doing editing
@dull steeple He said he is doing workstation stuff and adobe

dull steeple
#

ah

#

ok

eager monolith
hollow trail
#

the problem i have tho is the mobo and the case and why two different kinds of fans for the added fans lmao

eager monolith
#

What is wrong with the mobo? And last round I removed the extra fan 🙂

upper zinc
#

i gotta head out, but ill probably rejoin later 🙂 if anyone wants to kill time and spec out more stuff, just tag me or msg me! Thanks a lot guys for the help 😄

eager monolith
#

👍

hollow trail
#

do you think the guy can do a bios update tho lmao

dull steeple
#

he doesnt need to

#

the warning kinda irrelevant

river oracle
#

nice pfp

eager monolith
#

That warning shows up on almost every AMD build tho. If it is an issue, some stores offer free serives for that

hollow trail
#

memory express does

#

ia head there to buy everything tbh

#

for 120$ i can have them build the whole thing for me as wel

little pewter
#

does this come with 3 fans?

elfin trout
#

Only 1

little pewter
#

thats the back one?

elfin trout
#

Oh wait

#

Wrong case

#

That comes with 3 @little pewter

#

The 50$ mx330-g comes with 1

little pewter
#

this is one too right

#

i think its just a dollar more for tempered glass

Does any one of any good looking cases for under $100

willow hollow

Yea I have been looking at that one but it seems like there is not that much space once every thing is in there

I ha e been looking at some phantek cases

no h510

h510 looks so good tho

it may look good but its thermals and performance is very bad and terribly optimized

im a person that would sacrifice thermals for looks

What PSU wattage would be recommended for somebody who's planning to run a Ryzen 3600/2060 Super build with five case fans?

thin temple
#

600w would be pretty optimal

limpid meadow
#

I’d say between 650w to 750

#

600 is also good

thin temple
#

Gold/bronze 600w-650 would be the best

chrome iris
#

@alpine fox 500w or more

#

fans barely pull any power

So, I've got an upcoming trip for work, and I wanna take my PC with me. The problem is, I'd rather not travel with a glass case, especially one as heavy as mine. Does anyone know of any good, lightweight cases that support an ATX motherboard?

scenic lance
#

Look at Corsair or phanteks

modest ginkgo
#

Yeah, I've looked around but I'm not too familiar with either brands, since I've never used any of their products. Figured some recommendations might help me a bit

scenic lance
#

Check out coolermaster to

#

I’ve used them there good

vocal talon
#

yeah something like the 270r should be lighter cause it doesnt have a glass side panel

scenic lance
#

Yeah

vocal talon
#

or if u want really light and small u could get a cerberus x

modest ginkgo
#

Does it support ATX?

vocal talon
#

ya eatx to itx

#

its expensive but cant beat it for portability

modest ginkgo
#

Yeah, I just checked it out

#

Safe to say, that's not an option

#

I was looking at Thermaltakes Versa H22, which looks like it might do the job for now

vocal talon
#

yea that looks like it should be good

scenic lance
#

Then get it as long as it does what you need it to

modest ginkgo
#

Yeah, I think I will. Thanks for the recommendations tho! Once I have a bit more money, I may look into getting something like a 270r to use as a more permanent solution. I dunno what I was thinking, buying such a heavy, glass case. I move my PC from place to place pretty regularly, so it was a silly decision

is Lian Li O11 Dynamic good?

opinions on the lian li pc-O11 dynamic case??

vocal tartan
#

it’s a nice case but a little too much for my taste

round pike
#

^What he said

quaint girder
#

yeah i heard the same thing from a lot of ppl i might find another one from nzxt maybe

vocal tartan
#

i personally don’t like any nzxt cases i’d just go for like a td 500 mesh, has good airflow and comes w 3 rgb fans if you’re into that

#

supports up to a 360mm rad too

quaint girder
#

what about some meshify cases?

vocal tartan
#

i planned on getting a meshify c they’re pretty nice but i did some research on the td500 mesh and just went with that

#

both have very good airflow

quaint girder
#

yeah ik what u mean what cpu cooler do u have out of curiosity

vocal tartan
#

right now just my stock one for my amd fx 6300, for my build i’m working on i’m deciding between a dark rock pro or a arctic liquid freezer

quaint girder
#

what do you usually work with best water cooler or air coolers? id just go off that tbh and overall quality of the products

elfin trout
#

O11 = great looking if you invest more into fans

#

@quaint girder if you want quality of product, Noctua ftw

scenic lance
elfin trout
#

:p

#

Sfx PSU tho

vocal tartan
#

air coolers are relatively easy to install and cheap for the most part compared to most liquid coolers but the arctic liquid freezer is kind of making me want to go liquid

elfin trout
#

@vocal tartan Arctic freezer 2 is better cooling if it's in stock

quaint girder
#

i do have a rlly high budget since i rlly don't want to replace anything anytime soon and ppl tell me to wait for new gpus and cpus cuz of that

#

you should try it at least once @vocal tartan

elfin trout
#

Tbh the only competitors I consider at 100$ for cooling is D15, DRP4, and Freezer II

#

If you don't like bulky things in your build, freezer II

#

If you don't want water in your build, d15/drp4

quaint girder
#

btw what ram is considered average in ddr4 not being too fast or slow?

elfin trout
#

3200cl16 is the middle ground, average ram. 3600cl16 is good ram.

vocal tartan
#

i’ll probably end up going w the arctic because i want it to look nice still and the price is very good, was gonna spend like 90 on an air cooler anyway

elfin trout
#

I love Noctua for quiet good performance and warranty and free mounting bracket upgrades :D

scenic lance
#

what about be quiet dark pro 4

vocal tartan
#

d15 seemed nice but it’s huge

quaint girder
#

thx it's good to know and i can never find latencies lower than 16 on 3600mhz but only on 3200 i went and checked on some ram earlier today

scenic lance
#

dark rock pro 4*

elfin trout
#

Drp4 is actually like the same size as d15

#

It looks so much smaller right

#

But d15 is 165mm tall, drp4 163mm iirc

#

They're actually like the same height

vocal tartan
#

i had no idea i thought the d15 was way bigger

quaint girder
#

what would be some specs for ur guys' dream pc?

elfin trout
#

According to Newegg specs at least, which are quite accurate in my experience

scenic lance
#

titan rtx

vocal tartan
#

good thing my case supports up to a 165mm cpu cooler if i end up going air

scenic lance
#

and threadripper

elfin trout
#

Prob 10900k 2080ti with H150i in a td500 mesh

scenic lance
#

dual titans

elfin trout
#

Or Arctic freezer ii 360mm

#

@vocal tartan that's the reason why td500 mesh is superior to p400a

#

P400a can only support 155mm

#

Drp4 d15 d15s all out of the window

#

Screw that

vocal tartan
#

yeah lmao

quaint girder
#

id probably go with 10900k / amd ryzen 9 3900xt, asus 2080ti rog strix oc (white) nzxt kraken z73, and dunno about the case

elfin trout
#

Air cooling is just reliable and low risk imo

#

Ofc aio is fairly low risk too

quaint girder
#

faxxx

elfin trout
#

But just the thought of pump one day dying or leaking

#

Ick

#

I don't want that

vocal tartan
#

yeah i’m still kinda iffy about it

quaint girder
#

imagine if it got onto the heatsink of ur gpu rip❌

vocal tartan
#

will probably run stock cooler for a while till i decide

elfin trout
#

It's like a 0.1% chance I know that

#

Most AIOs don't die

#

And don't leak

#

But just that thought

quaint girder
#

yeah we're passed that stage by now

vocal tartan
#

my luck is awful lmao

quaint girder
#

mine is average lol

elfin trout
#

Nothing can go wrong with an air cooler really

#

My luck depends on what I'm doing

#

Sometimes it's great sometimes it's bad

quaint girder
#

only it dying out on you is the only issue

vocal tartan
#

my air cooler is 3 years strong in a terrible airflow system somehow

#

it’s still kicking

#

was a used stock cooler

quaint girder
#

damn that's what i call persistant

Hey, whats the best monitor for under $350 that's 1440 and adjustable to 144 hz?

#

a family member said they might help me pay for half of a better monitor, so i'm looking at the Viewsonic Elite serise

random peak
#

aoc ag241qx is a great 1440p 144hz monitor. theres a 24 and a 27 inch version and both are great. i got one for like $250 on ebay

#

if youre willing to buy used

faint hound
#

Sorry I was in the wrong section when I posted !

#

ASRock B550M Steel Legend Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard is what I'm buying

#

getting a deal on it.

#

I'm looking to figure out why it says this on PcPartPicker

#

Hmm. on the site " Note:The ASRock B550M Steel Legend Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector but the Thermaltake Toughpower DPS G RGB Gold 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply does not. This connector is used to supply additional 12V current to the motherboard. While the system will likely still run without it, higher current demands such as extreme overclocking or large video card current draws may require it.

#

I'm looking for a PSU similar t o that but with the additional connector that it's asking for

clear swallow
#

the newer B550 boards, along with some of the other higher end X570 etc, have 24pin plus 8 pin, plus another 4 pin

#

the extra 4 pin is primarily just if you're going to be doing any heavy overlocking

#

so the board can provide extra power if needed

#

but if you're just going to run at stock speeds, you don't need to connect that extra power

#

just the basic 24pin and 8 pin

faint hound
#

But it doesn't have to be overclocked, if it has the pin installed?

#

it's overclock CAPABLE not overclocked?

clear swallow
#

basically, and you can probably still do light overclocking without needing the extra power connected

#

but if you want to go crazy

#

you'll need that extra 4 pin

faint hound
#

is what I have right now, just looking for a PSU for it that fits all of the needs it wants

#

it's what someone is building for me rather

#

also an optical drive blu ray reader, probably just a Pioneer

clear swallow
#

when you go into pick a PSU, you can check a filter along the left hand side for '2x EPS 8-pin' and it will show you PSU's that will have the extra connector if you really want to have it available

faint hound
#

Thanks Chauntalei!

#

yikes they're all like 800s.

#

They'll probably have more affordable 600s in the future.

clear swallow
#

there's a seasonic focus 550W that's like $99

faint hound
#

oh you mean this one "2 x EPS 8-pin + 1 x ATX 4-pin"

clear swallow
#

no, just 2x EPS 8-pin

#

the extra 4 pin it's asking for is half of a normal EPS 8 pin

faint hound
#

ah!

clear swallow
#

so you'd have the normal 24 pin for motherboard power, one EPS 8 pin for the CPU, and another 4 pin EPS for the extra CPU juice

#

scores high on the LTT tier list

faint hound
#

what about this guy

clear swallow
#

that one is also good, the toughpower grand gold's are in the A tier list

slim venture
#

@faint hound just get an x570 mb

#

And I have to ask but are you getting that m.2

#

There are plenty for cheaper around the same performance I believe

faint hound
#

Yep!

#

getting it at a lesser price

#

and no, Kisuke.

#

about the motherboard

slim venture
#

**Kisuske

#

Hehe

faint hound
#

Thanks*

#

❤️

slim venture
#

But why

faint hound
#

im getting it from a guy who can get me the parts without tax

slim venture
#

X570s are better

faint hound
#

much less price.

#

because I don't want an X570 🙂

slim venture
#

Yeah ig at that point

faint hound
#

this isnt a "want vs need" kinda thing

#

This is an 8 year old PC and I want not only to buy the product but to help out the guy who's building it for me, too.

slim venture
#

Well

#

Then get an m.2 that is pcie 4.0

#

Since it has to last you almost a decade

#

Money doesn't seem tight so I'd go for it since you can utilize it with b550

faint hound
#

it is. I get $600 a MONTH. I just sold a bike, and returned a b450 and a ryzen 7 3600x

#

I'm keeping the RAM though.

#

I'm paying in Paypal -- he accepts it!

#

I have an old beat up corsair 400r, i'm running on 500w, I have a 970strix.

it's all old, and I want some new stuff.

#

Intel i5 3570k

#

ASUS P87ZZV-Pro

slim venture
#

So why you going with more expensive stuff then uh

#

For longevity?

faint hound
#

I don't want ULTRA expensive

#

Yeah longevity and expandability

#

I plan on getting an RDNA2, in the future.

#

I also need to pick up a Gsync Monitor

slim venture
#

So just get a weak sauce gpu until rdna2

#

No need to spend so much on last gen

#

You won't get your money back

faint hound
#

i'm getting it for less than it sells at stores. i'm saving tax and CA recycle fee.

#

I need to run 1440 at 144 FPS on an IPA panel. I have epilepsy and this old VA panel is killing my eyes

slim venture
#

Ya but the money you save now buying that 2080 in comparison to saving the money of buying a weaker card just makes sense cause you'll most likely end up saving more money since you're on a tight budget

#

And it's only for like another 2 months

#

Well worth the wait

faint hound
#

im not getting a first gen rdna though

#

im gonna wait until the newer ones come out. when they improve on the tech.

slim venture
#

You don't have to

faint hound
#

RDNA2 i mean

slim venture
#

Just get a cheaper Nvidia

faint hound
#

2060 super is the lowest i'm willing to go, but i'd prefer the 2070, A family member said she'd go in for half of the computer monitor

slim venture
#

And why get a super expensive G-sync when you're getting rdna2 in a couple of months

#

What are you running that needs so much power Lmao

faint hound
#

I plan on doing vid editing, gaming, I don't need this, but I want it. especially with the prices i'm saving on parts.

#

I'm saving at least 400

slim venture
#

You'll end up saving more money all around than just immediately buying since the parts you're buying rn are gonna be useless in the coming months

faint hound
#

I'm never getting 4k.

#

But I want to be able to handle it if I change my mind.

slim venture
#

No one's gonna wanna buy a 2080s for $500 if next gen can compete with it for the same price

#

You'd already lose like $300 right there

#

And G-sync compatibility monitor is useless after you get rdna2

#

4k is something to worry ab later tbh

#

I'm just suggesting this since money isn't the best

faint hound
#

HP Omen 27i 27.0" 2560x1440 165 Hz Monitor

#

it's GSYNC "capable"

#

So it's 300 less

slim venture
#

With the saved money you could always spend it on something else later if you change your mind

#

Wym $300 less?

faint hound
#

than the $500 viewsonic

#

that WAS 700

slim venture
#

Okay ya you're saving money

faint hound
#

Yep

#

and someones gonna help me pay for half of it anyway

#

so i'm saving even more

#

I'm probably paying about 1400 for an 1800 dollar PC.

#

and im okay with that.

slim venture
#

But that doesn't make it a good deal if the G-sync compatible monitor is gonna be useless

#

And look

#

A steal

#

And idk where you pulling these numbers from

#

That pcpp list is $1400 so how is it suddenly $1800uh

faint hound
#

If i put everything i wanted in there it would be 1800. i'm making slight modifications to a PCPartpicker build.

#

I'm getting a 5.25 for Blu rays and game installations, since I do want to own games and not JUST cloud gaming or links t o download the games

#

I was thinking about getting a tower with a 2nd 5.25 bay for a USB-C but the 550 comes with it. \

#

I'm not getting RGB so im saving on that.

slim venture
#

Only a little

#

Idk mayn

faint hound
#

If the stuff you're suggesting cost as much as the stuff I am, would you use it?

slim venture
#

No cause I'd get something cheaper lul

#

Unless I needed that specifically

faint hound
#

😛

#

Has anyone heard anything good about Omen monitors (HP?)

slim venture
#

That $400 youre saving doesn't mean much when you're buying a $700 card and probably won't make more than $400 back from it

#

So you're losing $300 at most tbh right there

#

And that monitor I linked is cheaper with the same specs

#

And a better stand

faint hound
#

The monitor has to be blue light resistant and flicker free with a 144hz or more adjustable panel.

#

Epilepsy

#

the 2070s are $399 right now.

#

I might be thinking of the 2060s

#

getting a super. again, just for expandability

slim venture
#

Ya that's a 2060s

#

And the monitor has both of what you're looking for

faint hound
#

yep just doublechecked!

#

it's 1808 😛

#

But i'm getting fans for cheap.

#

Oh I already own some of it

#

oen sec

slim venture
#

Fans are cheap either way

#

I gtg to sleep

faint hound
#

$1576.93

Hey guys, curious if anyone might be able to help me identify a plugin end/connector.

The cord type is a e67647_T AWM 20276 and below is a picture of the connector.

This power cord is connected to a bar that holds 7 PC Case-style fans and is used for drying ink as something is coming out of the printer. There is a direct plugin on the printer to power this deice but I am hoping to find an external power source so that it doesn't rely on the printer for power.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

fickle herald
#

S-Video?

#

Hmm, no let me look again

tender root
#

thats a 6 pin din cable @night orchid

chrome iris
#

lol

fickle herald
#

Or that

tender root
#

@fickle herald you are not wrong as such

#

it could easily be used for midi

clear swallow
#

that plug almost looks like a proprietary din connector though, it's not the normal 6 pin layout

tender root
#

but the 6-pin din cables are also fairly regularely used for (very) custom setups

clear swallow
#

normal 6 pin din looks like an arrow almost, symmetric pins

tender root
#

aye, "normal"

fickle herald
#

It looks like there are notches that wouldn't line up with the midi though

clear swallow
#

yeah, you said the custom part while i was typing my other thing up lol

#

definitely a custom 6 pin

tender root
#

aye, to prevent it from frying the living heck out of a standard midi connector @fickle herald

fickle herald
#

well that just ruins all the fun

tender root
night orchid
#

Hey guys thanks for the replies reading up on em now

#

I was afraid that was going to be the case. Based on the type of cord, is there any way to wire this up to a wall plugin of some sort

#

Looks like simple case fans

#

If wired a cpu fan to a wall plug before

#

Lol but how could I do that to a power cord that is connected to 7 fans

#

I mean I know how to splice wires just don't want to cut it unless I'm confident it would be worth it

#

@night orchid u wont get the max performance of the fun

Its, pretty good. Only thing that I don't like about it is the pcie bracket pieces in the back cannot be reattached after you take them out. But otherwise, its rly good value

naive sorrel
#

Is the separate audio and mic ports also an issue?

golden kestrel
#

Wdym?

#

If your talking about the front io connectors, I dont see how that could be an issue

naive sorrel
#

Idk I'm just thinking of any problem I might have with my first build

static rapids
#

what type of power supply do i need

ocean thunder
#

@static rapids there are several PSU utilities, one on Newegg to get a general idea of what your power needs are. After that look at PSU list pinned to this channel. Good hunting

I am trying to track down a Seasonic Connect Prime unit and have been coming up with goose eggs. Looking for some advice on where to find one. I even reached out to Seasonic an they are saying maybe November.

its a 10980xe

Aight. Check the pins for the PSU tier list. Get an A class for that kind of hardware

Is the sea sonic S12III 650W 80+ bronze a bad psu?

elfin trout
#

It's decent

chrome iris
#

Yep. Good for mid range systems. 1660 super is highest I’d put on it

#

I mean, that goes for any S12III in general, not just the 650w if you know what I mean

lofty pewter
#

eh, if it's S/M12III 500w and lower, it's group regulated. 12III 550w/650w is the only DC-DC

#

all 12I and 12II are GR

frank elk
#

what "size" backup battery / surge protector should i get if i have a 750W psu?

eager monolith
#

I just put on something that has a large enough battery to give me 3 mins to save work and have it auto shutdown

light wyvern
#

amazon rly do be delievering like 7 packages in a span of 12 hours

naive sorrel
#

Could I put a 2060ko on a S12III 650W 80+ Bronze?

#

Or would I need something better

chrome iris
#

you could, but it isn't the best idea imo

#

a better choice would be corsair CX, Cooler Master MWE (V2 if it's bronze) Antec Neo Eco Gold

#

any of those

#

500w or better

naive sorrel
#

Ok

Thx

icy cape
#

Ok I know this is a very stupid question can i get a mount that would slide into the pci plate covers on the case and mount my gpu vertical but the slots and not

vocal talon
icy cape
#

I'm not sure if that would work

#

Hang on sorry

#

Can u mount a gpu vertical in a silver stone rlo5 case?

round pike
#

If you have a hacksaw, yes

#

If not, idk maybe

icy cape
#

I AM NOT cutting my case

round pike
#

lol

#

I'll check if it works

#

Oooh nice looking case

icy cape
#

Yes it is

#

And thanks

#

@ me when u do thanks

round pike
#

@icy cape It looks like it doesn't

icy cape
#

I like that case to😢

#

Nzxt has a case that I like but I will have to check that one out more

round pike
#

The nzxt h510?

icy cape
#

I want the red gaming one h510i

#

But I don't think I can

#

H510i Phantom Gaming Special Edition

#

That is the one

round pike
#

Know that the airflow is really bad

icy cape
#

I guess I will go with the rlo5 and suck it up and be sad

#

I wanted to show case it vertically but whatever

round pike
#

They say that a vertical mount decreases performance, so there's that

icy cape
#

True

#

And it's hard to even say I will go with that gpu

Best 600w gold+ cert PSU?

eager monolith
#

Don't just buy based on gold cert... what are your specs and budget?

elfin trout
#

@faint hound and I'm pretty sure you don't want the best of the best, which would be like 400$, what's your budget?

faint hound
#

$125

Probably thinking a thermaltake

I need help in ordering a LED fan blue light to replace . the case is pictured on this link. One of the fans went out and my local shop replaced it with just a plain fan. I want to order an led blue light fan so it matches the other one.

#

@honest forge You will likely have to contact the manufacture if you cant find the model listed anywhere. Consider buying a matching set of different fans if it becomes to much of a hassle

#

Lian li is a higher end product so you should check their website

honest forge
#

Thanks, think I will just buy a pair so they match.

oblique lark
#

@honest forge A quick google of their website found me this. You can likely order one from them

How can I hide/remove tiny scratches on a pc case?

tender root
#

depends on material

north mural
#

matte black paint

tender root
#

IF you have a marker that "fits" that colour when it dries. then that is one way

#

another is figurine paint (think warhammer figurines)

alrighty thanks

yet another is nail polish

I'm wanting to build a computer with a ton of blu ray drives specifically to rip my massive blu ray collection for a home theater. Is there a good case option for this?

round pike
#

Use USB drives

elfin trout
#

built in 5.25in drive cages are really rare in modern cases

round pike
#

Sometimes you can find a case with one, but those are hard to find and usually low quality

My old case could hold 5

#

Hum so I’m herring a small little mouse cry from my psu it’s quiet faint but was wondering if that was Normal

#

Normal

elfin trout
#

Is it a CXm?

#

It might be coil whine, which is annoying but doesn't do damage to anything

limpid meadow
#

No it’s a cooler master mwe

elfin trout
#

Don't think there are common coil whine issues on that, but is it just a high pitched noise?

limpid meadow
#

Yeah very faint

#

I just built the pc today

#

I was just wondering because I wasn’t sure if I did something wrong, it’s my first solo build

#

And first time I here the sound

#

High pitch but faint

river oracle
#

cases around $50-$90 with fans installed pls

elfin trout

Td500 mesh maybe

Focus g for the low end

hmm

#

brb gonna check it out

#

are the fans blocked ?

elfin trout
#

?

round pike
#

No

river oracle
#

ok ty

elfin trout
#

Wdym by blocked

round pike
#

Like on the h510 I would assume

river oracle
#

like both sides of the fan, exhaust and smth, blocked so like no airflow

elfin trout
#

Td500 mesh had great airflow

round pike
#

Yup
