this is 3200 CL16

#

and this is cheap

sleek quiver
#

Any good ssd thats cheap but fast?

hollow prawn
#

@sleek quiver What is "cheap"?

austere thunder
#

MP34

hollow prawn
#

and what capacity?

austere thunder
#

ahahahah I said it before Mr1

sleek quiver
#

Like less than 100 with 1 tb space?

hollow prawn
#

You're not getting a decent NVMe drive for <100$ for 1tb.

austere thunder
#

I don't think many 1TB SSDs are under 100

sleek quiver
#

Damn

hollow prawn
#

So the "fast" part kinda gets yeeted out the window, basically only decent SATA drives if you're lucky

austere thunder
#

or terrible SATA drives 😉

hollow prawn
#

no

#

if it's dramless

#

throw it out the window

#

it's for your own good

austere thunder
#

yes

hollow prawn
#

I'm gonna take a look if there's any rn

austere thunder
#

that is why I said terrible kekw

sleek quiver
#

I was thinking of getting samsung nvme 970 but thats like 150

hollow prawn
#

ha

#

@sleek quiver what's the budget

#

for ~100$ you can get a 2000mb/s read write NVMe drive

#

for ~120$ you can get 3000/2700

#

for ~130$ you can get 3500/3000

twin quartz
#

Is that for 1 tb?

hollow prawn
#

@sleek quiver

#

@twin quartz yea 1tb

twin quartz
#

Ah so the mp34 is 3000 read? Thats good to know

final jolt
#

When ur $20 used mass storage 59tb hdd has 10gbps r/w

hollow prawn
#

Uh k

twin quartz
#

So is the sx8200 pro better than sn750

hollow prawn
#

They're about the same

#

I just prefer sx8200 pro for whatever reason :)

twin quartz
#

The sx8200 is similar pricing to mp34 (512 gb) but its way better?

hollow prawn
#

It's 117$ to 130$

#

And not 'way better'

twin quartz
#

mm ok

#

512 gb pricing not 1tb

sleek quiver
#

Oh sorry i was outside

#

Is this good?

hollow prawn
#

@sleek quiver look at the prices of the other drives I linked

#

Look at the evo

#

Do you see the problem?

#

:)

#

Evo has horrible value

#

Because it's almost always like 30$ more than the other drives at the same performance

hollow wolf
#

it's good

sleek quiver
#

Too high?

hollow wolf
#

but mp34 is a better choice

sleek quiver
#

So what do you suggest I get?

hollow wolf
#

mp34

#

bruh

sleek quiver
#

The third option?

hollow prawn
#

Sx8200 pro or MP34.

hollow wolf
#

READddddddddd

#

mp34

#

always

hollow prawn
#

Your choice between those two.

hollow wolf
#

no

#

there is no choice

#

mp34

hollow prawn
#

Lol

sleek quiver
#

But isnt the third one faster?

hollow prawn
#

And more expensive

hollow wolf
#

not worth price

#

like

hollow prawn
#

500mb/s isn't worth a 10% price increase for most people

hollow wolf
#

only do it if you have an obscene budget

#

i'm getting pci-e 4.0 bc of my stupid budget

hollow prawn
#

Obscene budget would grab a 2tb sx8200 pro smh

#

Or like sn850

hollow wolf
#

Obscene budget would grab a 2tb sx8200 pro smh
@hollow prawn 1 tb samsung 980 evo

#

7000 mb/ps

hollow prawn
#

@hollow wolf sn850 faster smh

hollow wolf
#

??

hollow prawn
#

So is sabrent rocket 4 plus

hollow wolf
#

send link

#

since when

#

what are they clocked at?

#

*read in

hollow prawn
#

Look at the SSD master sheet

#

7000/5300

hollow wolf
#

i don't...

hollow prawn
#

For sn850

hollow wolf
#

ssd master sheet??

#

where

#

oh

#

wai

#

pins?

hollow prawn
#

980evo is 7000/5000

#

Sabrent rocket 4 plus is 7000/6850

#

Ick they should've pinned it

#

But they never do

sleek quiver
#

Are you sure the MP34 is better than the evo?

hollow prawn
#

For value

#

Hell yea

sleek quiver
#

For speed?

hollow prawn
#

It's 117$ vs 150$

#

@sleek quiver if you want to spend 30$ for no real world difference, be my guest.

hollow wolf
#

honestly

sleek quiver
#

Hmmm

hollow wolf
#

smh some peopel

hollow prawn
#

Hell mp34 has a higher write speed lol

#

I forgot 970evo had a lower write speed

#

Oh wait

#

Lmfaooo

#

I linked mobo sheet

#

Meant to link ssd seet

#

Brb

hollow wolf
#

it's like when my lil bro said he wanted me to do a custom loop for a 700$ budget, and he was fine with getting a gtx 1070 just so it could be a custom loop

#

this was 2019 btw

hollow prawn
hollow wolf
#

so 1070 was not hot stuff

hollow prawn
#

Hm

#

I linked dark mode version

#

Close nuff

hollow wolf
#

yea

#

I was on that

#

it's pinned in storage

hollow prawn
hollow wolf
#

@hollow prawn Adata s20 is faster then them both

#

7400/6400

hollow prawn
#

uhhhh?

#

are you going crazy?

hollow wolf
#

😳

#

possibly

hollow prawn
hollow wolf
#

no

#

the s70

#

oops

#

xD

#

I meant s70 @hollow prawn

#

I MEAN S70

#

lmaOOo

hollow prawn
#

not in write

hollow wolf
#

tru

hollow prawn
#

Sabrent rocket 4 plus still beats it in write

hollow wolf
#

tru tru

hollow prawn
#

and I dunno

#

I like E18 better than SM2264

#

Phison OP

hollow wolf
#

smh why can't somebody make one which is faster in both 🙄

hollow prawn
#

Sabrent rocket 4 plus

#

it's just such a good all rounder

#

I think E18 might limit read speed to 7000mb/s max

tawny shoal
#

oof thats trash

#

my HDD does better smh

sleek quiver
#

So im getting the MP34?

hollow wolf
#

ofc

sleek quiver
#

Ok

hollow prawn
#

We suggest you do so.

hollow wolf
#

when was that ever a question!??!

#

I mean

sleek quiver
#

Now

hollow wolf
#

you have 2 options for pci-e 3.0

#

mp34

#

or the 8 tb sabrent rocket

#

your choice

hollow prawn
#

Lol

hollow wolf
#

personally I would just get a hybrid hdd

#

honestly

#

jk

#

ly <3

sleek quiver
#

How long do you think the boot time of windows would be if I use it?

hollow prawn
#

Bro

sleek quiver
#

😅

hollow prawn
#

That varies so much

#

Windows could boot faster on a slower drive for no reason

#

Just because it wants to

#

Or boot much faster on a faster drive for whatever reason

#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

sleek quiver
#

Alright ima buy it

carmine herald
#

@exprescvpn i boot in 6 seconds with my nvme m.2 drives if that helps u at all

sleek quiver
#

Yes it does my hdd boots up in 14

austere thunder
#

this laptop hard drive boots in about that time after disabling unnecessary startup programs

trim moat
#

how yall boot that fast tf

austere thunder
#

tuning

#

software

#

disabling software

compact notch
#

so you're telling me

#

disabling startup programs in task manager isn't enough

sleek quiver
#

No

#

I need that 1 second boot speed

fierce wagon
#

One second boot on windows 10 is a nope

3800xt 200

#

Account seems legit enough

glad pasture
#

I was gonna get a 7 3700x for my build should I grab that 3800xt instead and buy a cooler seperatly?

gilded dove
#

That’s what I did lmao

#

I got a 3800x for $250

warm bane
#

They are selling used for the same price as the 3700x on hardwareswap mostly.

hollow wolf
#

3800x is just an eh cpu

#

like

#

when you buy it new

#

ur just paying for .1 gHz

tawny shoal
#

probably slightly better binned or no?

warm bane
#

Well ya. That’s all the xt variants are.

Ddr3?

#

ITS CHEAP OKAY THEY ARE USUALLY EXPENISVE FOR 16gb

30 instead of 40 or 50 is a deal I would kill for a deal like this for ddr3

austere thunder

final scarab
#

Lmao aight aight

austere thunder
#

I want a 16GB DDR3-1600 kit

grim talon

austere thunder

This is cl9 believe

austere thunder

last egret
#

Yeah that too

#

Speeed

final scarab
austere thunder
#

I can't set ram speed in my BIOS lol

#

😔

#

it's whatever

grim talon
#

only DDR3 boards that support over 1600MHz are usually too expensive to justify getting them

austere thunder
#

I'll get a 16GB 1600 C10 kit or something someday

grim talon
#

or maybe youll upgrade your entire pc someday

austere thunder
#

FM2+ supports it, but FM2+ is only quad core no SMT

#

lol as if

or maybe youll upgrade your entire pc someday

#

there's no way 😎

grim talon
#

wait what do you have now

austere thunder
#

Lenovo thing

#

i7-4790, GT 730, 12GB 1600 C11

#

with an H81 board

grim talon
#

wow tht gpu is in dire need of n upgrde

austere thunder
#

maybe when my Grandpa builds himself a new one I'll ask him for his ig

#

yes

#

I have enough to get a 1650S but I'm waiting both to have access to my computer and also to see about 3050 which probably won't exist

grim talon
#

or you could just save some money and get a used RX 560 or something

Wait @small otter that just slides into your M.2 slot?

If so I might get that to replace my crappy usb dongle I have now :)

So, just any M.2 slot or...?

hollow prawn

key E

Any key E m.2 slot?

any that has key e yes

If you have a key E slot, you'll only have one

if only there was a micro center near me 200Sad

#

Yay rtx 3000 series price drop in india

#

Now all i have to do is get a pc which belongs to me

lone depot
umbral ridge
#

apparently some best buys will match microcenter and the 9700k is $200 there and 300 for a 9900k

frail wagon
#

@umbral ridge You have to call them. They won’t do it over chat. I tried.

livid egret
#

really

#

well, that makes me getting a 9900k for 300 alot easier since Microcenter is like a 2 hour drive for me

umbral ridge
#

@frail wagon i mean thats no major issue though

livid egret
#

9900k for 300 is a hell of a deal

#

it performs somewhere between the 10700k and the 10900k for like a $100 less than a 10700k

#

without the need to buy a Z490 board

frail wagon
#

IMO, I bought the 9700k because I feel that was a better deal

#

$200 for an i7 is no joke

livid egret
#

if you dont need the extra cores and threads then yeah

hollow wolf
#

who needs cores and threads?

frail wagon
#

Cores are the same, threads are different

hollow wolf
#

threads are useless

#

only need 1

umbral ridge
#

lol

#

but good z390 are relatively cheap though so these 9th gen deals are pretty nice

#

pretty sure the 9900k and 10700k are pretty much the same just 10th gen has better thermals

frail wagon
#

They’re very close, yes

umbral ridge
#

both OC to roughly the same area

#

5.1-5.2 range

livid egret
#

I do more than just game , so the 9900k is a smoking deal for me

frail wagon
#

There are more mAtx z490 boards if that’s your thing

umbral ridge
#

i got my 10700k from a combo deal with wegg

#

was like 150 off

livid egret
#

A mATX board in my Define 7 XL would look so anorexiat

umbral ridge
#

microcenter bundles on amazon

livid egret
#

yupp

#

microcenter is the bomb

umbral ridge
#

dunno how good the msi z390 a pro is but its 120 on amazon

livid egret
#

its a decent board ..

umbral ridge
#

i know the a pro for z490 is one of the best cheaper options but no idea on the z390

livid egret
#

there are better with better vrm cooling solutions tho

umbral ridge
#

aorus elite is 160

livid egret
#

for stock settings its decent

#

aorus z390 or z490

umbral ridge
#

asus tuf is 10 less but its odd

#

like those vertical sata are really weird

livid egret
#

on the b550 and z490 Aorus reeally did a good job on the VRM cooling

umbral ridge
#

yeah

#

elite is like one of the best 150-200 boards for z490

#

msi is pretty alright but their rear io is pretty meh

livid egret
#

for the z490 series I would say that Aorus then Asus is the better way to got

umbral ridge
#

oh wow really glad gigabyte toned it done with the gamer look of the aorus board

#

z390 is extra gamery

#

not that i can really even see my mobo behind the ninja 5

livid egret
#

ROFL

umbral ridge
#

ninja 5 is a chonker

livid egret
#

I have the MSI Z390 MEG ACE and its a really solid board ,

umbral ridge
#

but the most audible part of my pc is when the gppu ramps up

livid egret
#

could do without the annoying infinity mirror on the IO Sheild , but i just turned it off

umbral ridge
#

i'm on the z490 aorus elite AC

#

good io but

livid egret
#

that is a good solid board

umbral ridge
#

they didnt have to make the rear audio jacks solid black

#

i coulda done without that

livid egret
#

my buddy has the Z490 AOROUS ULTRA and he swears by it

umbral ridge
#

its pretty damn good

livid egret
#

and another has the Z490 Aorous Master and they are always bantering aboput who's is better

umbral ridge
#

and z490 aorus is luckily more sleek that gamery

livid egret
#

they are dead sexy

umbral ridge
#

strix is a bit overboard with the logo

#

and the japanese

livid egret
#

they do love the bling look

umbral ridge
#

the corsair of mobo makers

#

although cant deny the taichi series from asrock looks fine

livid egret
#

overpriced

umbral ridge

oh for sure

#

but it looks nice

#

your paying for the Steam Punk look

umbral ridge
#

better than unicorn barf

#

still sticking to aorus though

if mITX is your thing then the Z490I AORUS Ultra is your ticket

#

yoooo

#

anyone excited for rx6000 launch?

#

poggers?

umbral ridge
#

too bad my eventual 3080 step up wont have clown lips, i really wanted the googly eyes

#

@full gorge depends on how good it actually is and how the launch is

full gorge
#

well

#

I want a upgrade for sure this holiday

#

I'm on a rx570 rn

#

But I still like it

umbral ridge
#

i'm sure it won't be 3000 series scarcity

#

but dunno if it'll be much better

#

people really live in the moment and are really dunking on nvidia for the 3000 series really forgetting the 3800x and 3900x shortage of last year

#

and the 3100 and 3300x shortage of this year

livid egret
#

ehh - honostly my 2080 Gaming X trio is doing just fine

umbral ridge
#

i got tired of f5 game so i just decided to step up

#

hope production ramps up though

#

i'm like around 420 in the unofficial US que

#

and its only confirmed about 60 in

livid egret
#

I am going to make a prediction that the 6000 release will be the same as the Nvidia 3000 release

umbral ridge
#

i thinkit'll be a smidge better

livid egret
#

poof they are gone

umbral ridge
#

but people really acting like they are gonna sell out lol

#

or that amd is any better at bot stuff

livid egret
#

I don't think any company can meet the demand on a new release right now

supple sluice
#

the only thing AMD has said is they expect initial stock to last 'hours' after launch

#

so it'll still be a short window to buy

umbral ridge
#

oof

supple sluice
#

which is better than minutes, but still not great

umbral ridge
#

tsmc has to be throttled rn with ryzen, big navi, iphones, etc.

supple sluice
#

also, they didn't say anything about how soon they'd be restocked after the initial sell-out

livid egret
#

tsmc and samsung both are throttled

supple sluice
#

but hopefully AMD has been paying attention to the nvidia launch and has been cranking out cards to try and minimize downtime between availability windows

#

we'll see though

livid egret
#

indeed

umbral ridge
#

its what 2 weeks from now?

#

roughly

livid egret
#

remember its not AMD / NVIDIA/ INTEL that are the bottle neck in this

supple sluice
#

i want a 6800 but i might end up just waiting for a few months for things to settle

#

i have a 5600XT which is still fine

livid egret
#

its the vendors they need to make their product

umbral ridge
#

well intel is their bottleneck they have their own fabs

#

amd and nvidia don't

livid egret

which are throttled 9 ways to sunday and under duress to meet the demamds

The ram itself is worth like $50-60

#

Cpu is worth like 25-50 bucks

#

and the motherboard about the same

#

@naive flicker

my freind gave me a radeon hd 4870, fan, 8 gig ram, ethernet card, and some motherboard and cpu, we dont really know what tho so we gotta find out, but for 20$

It’s not the greatest system but wow

I got a laptop for free this spring

From my aunt

yeah imma see what the cpu is and see about trying to use it as a server comp

Good idea

It’s probably like an fx-8350 or something

no its 5820k, its an overclockable 6 core 5th gen

Hi, sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but could someone tell me how much my g pro wireless should sell for? It has 6 months of use. I want to sell it because I read that the new g pro wireless superlight was filtered and I want to save for that, greetings

Anyone know of good prebuilt deals a friend of mine doesnt wanna build and get a new pc

@candid pelican really depends on your area tho

different area are willing to spend different amounts

Yes, I keep that in mind, I am from Argentina and inflation is getting worse, maybe I can get something good out of it.

im getting an i7 4790 gtx 745 16gb of ram in a prebuilt and a monitor keyoard and mouse for $250. Is that a good deal?

pure lintel
#

decent

austere thunder
#

considering the prices of i7-4790s are pretty much that or more, heck yeah

mental palm
#

how fast is the ram

pure lintel
#

could replace the gpu at some point, aswell as the mobo prolly

cedar yew
#

1600mhz

pure lintel
#

ouch

#

that too

#

not bad

austere thunder
#

ok they're around 100 dollars on ebay nvm but still pretty good price tbh

cedar yew
#

ok

#

so shud i go for it?

austere thunder
#

I like my i7-4790 very much :)

#

I'd probably buy it myself

cedar yew
#

ok thanks

pure lintel
#

just depends on what you want to use it for

cedar yew
#

will a gtx 1650 bottleneck the i7 4790?

#

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmm gaming and school work and programming and stuff

dense pawn
#

The older intel prices make no sense.

austere thunder
#

1650 would be a good fit

#

1650S even better

dense pawn
#

No the 1650 won't bottleneck it.

cedar yew
#

ok

#

i need one without a 6pin pcie connector soo i was looking at the zotac 1650

dense pawn
#

I have an old dell prebuilt with the 4770 and a 1070. It works fine.

austere thunder
#

yeah the 1650 would be good for board power only then

#

what PSU does it have?

cedar yew
#

290w

austere thunder
#

oo 10 watts higher than my old one

cedar yew
#

so itll work?

#

with the 290w

austere thunder
#

I think so??

#

check with others like Hei or Mr1

#

mayb :>

cedar yew
#

hopefully:0

dense pawn
#

if you are going to buy a gpu anyway just build a pc with a 3100 and a cheap b450. You won't be limited to pcie powered cards.

austere thunder
#

I would suggest planning for a PSU upgrade incase the 290w dies, my 280w died after only 5 years

cedar yew
#

ok

#

but the thing is i dont need a lot of power so a 1650 is morrrrreeee thn enuf

austere thunder
#

that's cool :)

mighty wyvern
#

just wait a 290w psu?

austere thunder
#

I want to get a 1650S

dense pawn
#

You won't have an upgrade path with that build.

mighty wyvern
#

Yeah I would upgrade your PSU 290w is very limiting

austere thunder
#

not much of an upgrade path, no, but it's a good budget system

#

4790 + 1650S plenty

cedar yew
#

i just need somethin to get mee goin sooooooo idts i need an upgrade path

austere thunder
#

whenever I plan on upgrading beyond the limit of my system, I will just build a whole new one and keep it as a secondary

cedar yew
#

the only thin im concerned about is the 290w psu

#

if it runs it then im golden

dense pawn
#

If you have to buy a new psu you will also have to buy an adapter for the motherboard. Dell uses a proprietary connector.

cedar yew
#

oh i didnt know that

#

thx

#

using power draw calculator it says that with a 1650 itll draw 233w and recommended psu is 283w ik tht isnt good headroom but will it run?

mighty wyvern
#

ehhhh

#

I think you risk damaging your computer if youre that close

hollow prawn
#

Should run fine.

3100 does not have integrated graphics

Usually only amd processors with a “G” in the name are apu 

#

The ryzen 3 3200g is a good apu for like 100$

austere thunder

There's also Ryzen 5 3400G if you want something more like the 3100

fresh sapphire

is the r5 3400g worth it?

austere thunder
#

Maybe not

fresh sapphire
#

then what about a 2400g?

#

im not gonna cheap out on performance

#

but i wanna try and cut some corners on other things

#

im intending on upgrading later on tho

austere thunder
#

Actually the 3200G and 3400G are almost the same price atm on Newegg

#

140 USD

#

And I guess you'd have to find a 2400G used because they're listed as like 250 bucks

earnest vigil
#

A 3200g with a 1650super later down won’t be a bad investment

austere thunder
#

Yes but for the same price you can get the 3400G, so +SMT and +clock speed

fresh sapphire

not many people like a curved monitor though

also I heard that VA panels are only good for gaming coz text appears very pixelated on them

#

i dunno if thats true, but ips is still better all round imo

#

va panels are perfectly good

they have better contrast ratios than ips, they just have a ghosting issue

but most good va monitors have anti ghosting certificates

what about the pixelated text part?

#

i have never heard about that

apparently va panels have "sub-pixels" that make it so

that text appears pixelated

besides, all people talk about in monitor reviews is gaming related

so ¯_(ツ)_/¯

thorny bough
#

well

#

if you're watching a monitor review, 99% of the time its gaming related

and they mention stuff that's important to photo editors and whatnot, like color coverage and 8 bit/10 bit color

#

yeah but nothing about text sharpness :(

which kinda sucks

eh, mostly because most monitors have almost the same text sharpness
