Toughpower GF1 is $99 with mail in range making it one of the cheapest A tier 650w PSUs available rn

Any good deals on just 1 fan lmao. I need an exhaust fan

ashen lantern
#

you can toggle it for 1 fan and still get a promo

#

Do you think when the 3000 series goes back on the shelf at a steady rate the 2060 will go down like £50 or £100

spare wave
#

Not a chance the 2060 will go that low

pure lintel
#

0.0% chance

modern otter
#

I do need me a 2060 though

spare wave
#

wait for a 3060

#

The MSRP is 400 of a 2060

ornate pawn
#

that is a 2060s

spare wave
#

Yep you right

#

My bad, still wait for a 3060

muted lantern
#

2060s will be cheaper than the 3060 by like 100+ imo

exotic swift
#

No... the 3070is $500, why would the 3060 be the same? I think 3060 will be closer to 400, maybe 100 over the 2060 but not the 2060s

anyone know any 60% mech keybaord under 50$ or 75$

@cold tartan do u have a specific key switch?

cold tartan

grim talon

ye

dapper anvil
#

hey

#

is there any deals on ssds

#

rm

#

rn*

grim talon
#

this one is a sucky ssd but its only $170 for 2tb

#

860 evo 500gb for 54

dapper anvil
#

also how goood is that first one

#

ive never heard of that brand

#

are the reliable?

#

they*

grim talon
#

665P NVMe 1TB for 90

#

its bad

#

the first ssd

#

its really not good

#

no dram

dapper anvil
#

oh

#

is that why it is so cheap?

grim talon
#

yep

#

lol

dapper anvil
#

wait

#

whats dram again?

grim talon
#

cache

#

if an ssd doesnt have dram it can get to be slower than a hard drive when it fills up

dapper anvil
#

bruh

#

then its not even a ssd smh

lone depot
#

Wait wrong channel sorry

grim talon
#

120mm RGB AIO for $35 with $4 promo and $10 rebate

#

should I get this for when i transfer to TD 500 mesh just for the looks PB_peepo_think

wide trout
#

ick

#

i guess it would work, but a decent air cooler would be better

grim talon
#

i have wraith spire rn

frail wagon
#

Worth buying at this price?

last egret
#

nah

grim talon
#

thats normal price for trident

frail wagon
#

It just dropped actually

last egret
#

still no good

grim talon
#

and yeah its not worth it. You can get 32gb 3600MHz kits without rgb for like 110-120

frail wagon
#

That's very true. I'm gonna keep waiting for a better sale.

#

Trusty 2400mhz still going strong

hollow wolf
#

and yeah its not worth it. You can get 32gb 3600MHz kits without rgb for like 110-120
@grim talon not worth it

#

they don't have rgb

spare wave
#

Its not the worst SSD, buttheres much better ones

#

Why did it send, nvm not gonna question it

frail wagon
#

@grim talon I actually just checked and the cheapest 3600 32GB CL16 kit on Newegg is $148

#

In other words, that Trident Z is not a bad deal. It's also not a good one.

pure lintel
#

grim talon
#

oh yeah you right. I was thinking of 3200MHz

pure lintel
#

?

covert forge
#

I have 16 gigs of trident z rgb

#

im thinking of upgrading to 32 gigs, should I?

twin quartz
#

What are you doing

#

For gaming you should be good

#

If you are editing then get 32 gb

covert forge
#

Ok thx

#

i do video editing and gaming lol

twin quartz
#

K then 32 should be good

#

Make sure to get 3600cl16

frail wagon
#

May or may not be worth the extra $50, depends on your cpu

#

For 3600 CL16

twin quartz
#

If you have amd get 3600

spare wave
#

That is 4000 CL18 this is pretty fast too

twin quartz
#

No dont get that

#

Dont get that

spare wave
#

What’s so bad about it

twin quartz
#

Thats a waste of money

#

No point of 4000mhz

#

3600mhz cl16 is best

hollow prawn
#

@spare wave just take a look at first word read latency to get an idea of how that compares to 3600c16

hollow wolf
#

grrr

#

i have chart

hollow prawn
#

@hollow wolf you know pcpp lists them right

hollow wolf
#

yea but this is good visual way to look at it and compare

hollow prawn
#

So much harder finding it in that than to click on the pcpp sticks lol

hollow wolf
#

eg 3600mhz cl18 ~= 3200 mhz cl16

hollow prawn
#

you could also just memorize the common ones

hollow wolf
#

mm

#

or memorize the whole chart

hollow prawn
#

I mean common ones aren't hard

hollow wolf
#

2133 cl9 ram is pretty decent

hollow prawn
#

3200c14 8.75, 3200c16 10, 3600c16 8.89, 4000c18 9

hollow wolf
#

yea

#

4400 mhz cl16 is p good value too for a way higher end system

#

2x8 of it is 180$

#

which isn't bad for a higher end sys

swift pendant
#

Are there any good AIOS with a temp display on the AIO itself that dont cost a fotrune

hollow wolf
#

define cost a fortune

#

there are 2

lone depot
#

Well apparently if you get a 5000 series you need all channels used for better performance

#

So 4x8 will be more common

swift pendant
#

like 200+

hollow wolf
#

Are there any good AIOS with a temp display on the AIO itself that dont cost a fotrune
@swift pendant kraken x73 or asus rog ryujin

#

both are 250-300$

#

sry

swift pendant
#

tuff

hollow wolf
#

no

#

there aren't any tuf aios like that

swift pendant
#

no i mean like thats tough

#

lol

#

@hollow wolf i dont think u can do temp display on the x73 can you? i thought thats the Z63 model

final scarab
#

X73 is just an infinity mirror tho this isn't really a tech deal lol

lone depot
#

The Z series is the one with the temp displays

#

The X is just LED

dull lintel
#

So 4x8 will be more common
@lone depot From what I read, it depends on the motherboard. Daisy Chain topology likes 2x Dual Link memory whereas T-Topology likes 4x Single Link memory

hollow wolf
#

@hollow wolf i dont think u can do temp display on the x73 can you? i thought thats the Z63 model
@swift pendant if u want temps only

#

the aorus liquid cooler is expensive

#

but arund 150-200$

#

and has temp display

pure lintel

I sold a 7600k and a mobo for ~180 usd plus shipping for reference

Not really worth buying unless you’re really budget constrained

cobalt viper
#

@cobalt viper yup, its 5th and 6th generation xeons and i7 (i7 5820k, 2630v3 or whatever)
@naive flicker those xeons are actually quite cheap on server supply.com

But a check might be required

I got a 2630v2 for 40 bucks, a 2630v3/v4 or similar cant be that much more

So should I cop the case for an i7 9700k and a 5700xt

im glad xD

#

do you build the pc for as long as ot can go or do you plan on upgrading it regularly?

#

tbh....that was a stupid question

#

case upgrade is cheaper c':

tame tree
#

I’m getting the 1660ti and i7 9700k this year next year upgrading to a 5700xt probally or 2070

#

Next year

grim talon
#

Might wanna get a higher airflow case for that. That ones is just a glass box. Even though it has fans glass is gonna stop those fans from getting any air

#

Might wanna opt for a higher airflow case if you can

tame tree
#

Is there anything for around the same price point

#

70

#

Meshify C maybe

#

Doesn’t include that many fans though so idk

@last egret the front is glass right? On the musetex? Or is it just nothing

last egret

it has glass but has side mesh and side areas for air to seek through

grim talon

Ok I see

and the fans were at a relaitvely high speed and had lots of mesh

How Loud tho

but was at a quiet sound

A little above

So y’all recommend ?

nah with about the same things it ran 8-12c cooler

Sure

Also whats the biggest cpu cooler it would fit

it aint loud no worries

Really good price I think I ended up getting a hard drive for $55 that was 1TB

@idle monolith 2 tb hard drive for 54.99

#

Seagate barracuda

idle monolith
#

Yeah I meant 2TB XD

#

That’s the drive I got

dull lintel
#

I picked up one from BB for that price since my old 2TB HD is failing I'm pretty sure

#

and I don't wanna spend $150 more on an SSD of the same size lol

hollow wolf
#

@tame tree send a link to that ssd!

#

i want it

#

gib gib gib gib gib

tame tree
#

Just search up ssd on Newegg

bleak pike
#

@tame tree that's a good price for an SSD, but I've heard that SSD is DRAM-less

tame tree
#

how long would a dramless ssd last

#

It has 3 year warranty

#

So it’s most likely to last for three years

solid dune
#

I'd rather get the 2 tb hdd than a dramless 1tb sdd ngl

tame tree
#

Why

#

@solid dune

solid dune
#

dramless makes it a lot slower, and the hdd i found has a 256 mb cache and is a little less than that

tame tree
#

But that wouldn’t be faster

#

How hard is it to upgrade your storage over time

#

Like say I want to add some more storage to my build how difficult would it be to add more

hollow prawn
#

@tame tree the issue is, dramless ssds become basically useless before they stop working

tame tree
#

Would I be better off buying an m.2 ssd 512 Gb for 60$

hollow prawn
#

dramless = they use their own space and wear out the chips for data locations

#

MP34 512gb for 63$ yes

#

I have a dramless SSD, after a few months of use, it because as slow as my hdd, and I swapped it out for an actually good SSD with dram that I've been using since.

tame tree
#

How hard is it to swap tho

solid dune
#

I dont recommend buying the hdd for stand alone use, im probably going to buy a 256 gb for startup

But idk wouldn’t 512 Gb not last the longest

#

Like storage wus

#

Wise *

hollow prawn
#

...

#

get an hdd after a few months

tame tree
#

I plan on playing cod and the storage would be eaten up

solid dune
#

most people i know just have an hdd as a background thing

#

for files n stuff

tame tree
#

Aii

hollow prawn
#

ye, 2tb hdd for 55$ isn't bad

tame tree
#

How hard would it be to add it

solid dune
#

not very hard

#

if you dont have a tiny case that is

hollow prawn
#

put drive into bay
connect sata power
connect sata data

#

done

tame tree
#

Well My mother board is atx

solid dune
#

yeah you should be good

#

i have a micro atx and im pretty sure im fine

tame tree
#

I just don’t know what case to get now smh

#

So many option idk

hollow prawn
#

doesn't affect anything

tame tree
#

Budget is 70

hollow prawn
#

MX330-g air

solid dune
#

i have one for like 50 ish

hollow prawn
solid dune
#

coolmaster

#

this is the one im looking at

tame tree
#

Is the air flow good?

#

@solid dune I’m ngl I heard airflow isn’t the best on that case

solid dune
#

it has a mesh front, so it should be good

tame tree
#

@solid dune just saying what I heard

hollow prawn
#

q300l is decent

#

I think it's the q500l that's bad

#

forgot

solid dune
#

it used to be like

#

35

#

but they bumped it back up :(

#

@hollow prawn how good is that cougar case?

tame tree
#

@hollow prawn I have a i7 9700k and an 1660ti would temps be bad in that cougar case?

solid dune
#

if you dont cheap out on a cooler it should be alright

hollow prawn
#

Hm?

#

@tame tree it comes with 3 fans with good airflow

#

What else do you want from a case

#

@solid dune btw demonmit built in a mx330-g air before

#

Lemme see if I can find it

solid dune
#

alrighty

hollow prawn
tame tree
#

I won’t cheap out on cooler

hollow prawn
#

I mean

#

cooler isn't one of those 'can't cheap out' things

solid dune
#

350 ?

#

nice

hollow prawn
#

because @solid dune @tame tree there are very capable cheap coolers like the Deepcool Gammaxx 400 that performs at 25$ just as well as a NH-U12s

tame tree
#

Going for a arctic freezer 34 duo for an i7 9700k

#

My cpu gets hot that I’m pretty sure

#

Tho*

hollow prawn
#

coolers aren't a "must spend 150$ on an overpriced corsair aio" thing

tame tree
#

Obv

hollow prawn
solid dune
#

i just meant, if you have that much heat, at least get a hyper 212

tame tree
#

It’s $50 or $30 open boxed air cooler

hollow prawn
#

dif cpu

#

you get the point

#

@solid dune gammaxx 400 beats hyper 212 I'm 95% sure

#

for cheaper

solid dune
#

oo

#

lemme look that up

hollow prawn
#

beats U12s by a decent margin there

tame tree
#

Those coolers wouldn’t be good for overclocking

solid dune
#

oh nicee

#

its also blue

#

would fit the case perfectly

hollow prawn
#

Hm?

solid dune
hollow prawn
#

@tame tree right there we can agree gammaxx 400 beats NH-U12s correct?

tame tree
#

@hollow prawn I guess so

#

@hollow prawn but I would want to overclock my cpu

#

So wouldn’t a better cooler be used

#

If I go less on a case I’d be able to go more on a cooler

hollow prawn
#

One second

#

Lemme pull up Noctua's own suggestions

#

@tame tree
https://noctua.at/en/nh-u12s/cpucomp#manuf_8346_socket_8282
Go find 9700k

NH-U12S

The NH-U12S is the latest 12cm model of Noctua’s classic U-series single tower CPU coolers, which have received more than 400 awards and recommendations from the international press. The S-version’s 45mm slim shape guarantees 100% compatibility with tall RAM modules and at the...

solid dune
#

thanks for the advice though, now i can have a nice looking case

hollow prawn
#

So yea

tame tree
#

Are these fans ?

hollow prawn
#

Noctua suggests a moderate overclock with a nh u12s on 9700k

#

Gammaxx 400 supposedly beats nh u12s

tame tree
#

Oh

dull lintel
#

yea but RGB lowers your temps by like 10 degrees

#

it's science

pure lintel
#

yes

#

factual

torpid bone
#

especially if its blue

tame tree
#

Do y’all have any good cpu coolers for under $50 but an i7 9700k

#

Overclocked to 4.5

cobalt viper
#

If it looks cool, it therefore makes your system run cooler

pure lintel
#

true

#

very true

tame tree
#

Lmao seriously tho

cobalt viper
#

Get a uhhhhh

solid dune
#

the one mr1111 should work fine

cobalt viper
#

I think a aio would work great

pure lintel
#

loud but it works

#

Don’t water coolers tend to break

#

And when they do the entire system breaks

worn comet
#

Custom water loops? Have a chance of breaking and wrecking the system. All in ones are different as you're not the one doing the piping yourself and don't have to add water/liquid to it.

last egret

dropped to 80

naive flicker
quasi quarry
#

arent 3080s supposed to be like 800?

#

and the 9900k like 2-300

naive flicker
#

No that’s brand new

#

So like

quasi quarry
#

oh kf is like 400-450

naive flicker
#

Yeah

#

Hm

#

It’s not bad for being totally brand new

#

Not great though

quasi quarry

so like 1200 ish is what you should expect to pay

naive flicker
#

Yeah

quasi quarry

$379.99 for the 9900kf on amazon

but bestbuy has it listed for 789.00

frail wagon
#

Do y’all have any good cpu coolers for under $50 but an i7 9700k
@tame tree Why would you overclock 9700k to 4.5? It already boosts to 4.6 all core

tame tree
#

@frail wagon wym

#

@frail wagon I’m pretty new to this stuff

quasi quarry
#

Operating Frequency
3.6GHz
Turbo Speed
4.9GHz

tame tree
#

@quasi quarry what does that exactly mean

quasi quarry
#

Turbo Boost enables a CPU to run faster than its basic processing speed, and will only be enacted under certain situations. If the CPU detects that all its cores aren't being utilized, Turbo Boost will kick in and the clock speed on the core(s) that are being used will be increased.

@worn comet bruh

#

custom loops don't just 'break'

hollow prawn
#

There's a reason you do leak testing

hollow wolf
#

^^

hollow prawn
#

that's why you fill it up with paper towels when you're leak testing

hollow wolf
#

exactly

hollow prawn
#

Long term custom loops are more reliable (as long as you maintain it)

#

you can't deal with fluid in AIOs doing weird things, or pump dying, etc.

hollow wolf
#

ye

#

exactly

#

custom loops are more complex

#

but they worth

#

and not as expensive as most people think

#

u can get a pretty decent custom loop for abt 300$

#

with a 360 mm rad, decent pump, and ok blocks

frail wagon
#

@tame tree An overclock below 4.7ghz on a 9700k actually is underclocking the cpu and reducing performance. The cpu will go up to 4.9ghz on a single core on its own and 4.6ghz if all cores are under load.

#

In other words, you’re better off keeping it stock.

@tacit veldt I think you already know the answer, no.

Is 825 euros a good deal for a rtx 3080

vast geode
#

Depends

frail wagon
#

No

vast geode
#

What model

frigid harness
#

Gigabyte Eagle

#

tbh it's probably not a good deal, but I mean, it's also not 900 euros

vast geode

Yeah I think the eagle is an msrp card right

#

It's about 600 euros if I'm not mistaken so that doesn't sound very good

frigid harness
#

yeah

#

I'm just impatient and tryna find something cuz it's the only part I'm missing besides the cpu lol

#

I mean maybe I could go for a 3070 but bruh I really wanted a 3080

#

or the amd gpu or something

#

tbh idek which models are cheaper or more expensive

besides like msi and asus rog strix for example I bet those are expensive

I found a 3070 for 600 euros

depends

if u need something for <100$, and it's a working card, go for it

get a better gpu imo

if you have one why not

@pallid saddle too late

#

I’m upgrading next year

pallid saddle

oh

tame tree
#

@pallid saddle I already got the gpu and I found the cpu on a really good sale

pallid saddle
#

yeah ik abt the microcenter one

tame tree
#

I opened the box I should’ve waited ngl(for the gpu) would’ve been smarter to go for a 5600xt but it is what it is

slate perch
#

what gpu u got

tame tree
#

I’ll probally go for a 5700xt or 2070 next year

#

1660ti

#

Got it with a rebate sale which I still have to do

slate perch
#

next year rx 7000 releases

#

i think

tame tree
#

How much is it going to be tho

slate perch
#

maybe 6000 drops in price then

#

who knows

tame tree
#

Probally really expensive

#

Ohhhhh

#

You right you right

slate perch
#

idk i saw some vid and apparently another big performance upgrade

tame tree
#

Yea I’ll wait till around black Friday next year and upgrade and probally either give away the 1660ti to someone Ik or sell it

slate perch
#

so prices may very well drop a lot

tame tree
#

Oh aii that’s fire

#

And I’m fine with spending like 400-500 so if rtx 3060 is around that price point so be it

#

If it’s good ofcourse

slate perch
#

im pretty sure

#

its 500

fickle elbow
#

3060ti should be 4-450

#

3070 is 500

tame tree
#

Oh aii

slate perch
#

4

#

mb

fickle elbow
#

3060 will prob be 400 or less

tame tree
#

How good would the performance be tho

slate perch
#

well

fickle elbow
#

and don't expect prices to go down that much on older cards

slate perch
#

some leaks said 340

#

so

fickle elbow
#

expect 3060ti to be 2080s range or something

#

and 3060 probably like 2070s

#

idk

#

just a guess

solid dune
#

how low is the 1660 super expected to drop after 3070 restocks?

tame tree
#

5700xt is like around the same price like 400

slate perch
#

question is if it will

#

as 3070 restock will sell out too

#

most likely

tame tree
#

Probally won’t since lots of people are buying 1660 supers

solid dune
#

f

slate perch
#

can still sell it on ebay or something

solid dune
#

maybe i can get lucky on ebay or smthng

tame tree
#

Why is 3070 so cheap compared to 2080ti?

#

Isn’t 2080ti like the most expensive gpu

fickle elbow
#

because 2000 series was all a mess

slate perch
#

not anymore

#

competition became a thing

#

new architecture

fickle elbow
#

you'll still see 2080tis for surplus of a thousand but never buy that ever

#

only if you can find it for around 500

slate perch
#

and the 3080 is already lower so
