building-and-recc-chat

[fossil cedar]

They mean AIOs i think

Probably the corsair one

[cyan ravine]

I hope so I don't want lcd's to come to fans

Don't make pc life more difficult for the normal peeps

[potent portal]

Needs two more wires to connect for a total of 4 per fan and adds another 6 failure points while offering less performance

And people would still buy it

[cyan ravine]

I'm experimenting with something much cleaner later today

Want none of no crazy lcds

Nuh uh no sir

[potent portal]

I barely even have RGB in my computer, and I wouldn't put any LCD in because I can't even see if from where I sit. I barely get a little glow off my memory in my peripheral.

[cyan ravine]

I have an LCD but from a spot I can see it, not on the cooler

Might be coming out after today tho

Depends if I cover it or not lol

[analog pulsar]

"I barely even have RGB in my computer"

so sad

you dont get to experience the joy of light

[potent portal]

Why? It serves no real purpose and just drains power

I really can't see it from my chair

[analog pulsar]

TBH tho i get what Fal is saying my computer was next to my monitor but i was so invested in my game i didnt see my GPU hitting 99C

only reason i looked over at my pc at time bc i heard it screaming

im pretty sure my fans where 5000RPM

[potent portal]

I have a fan in mine that really will hit 5k rpm and it SCREAMS

I have it limited to 50% max in bios lol

[analog pulsar]

my gpu was screaming

my PC is normally quiet thats why i was concerned

like i have headphones i cant hear pc sound and whenj i can hear past my headphones thats a bit worryhing bc that means fans are higher RMP then normal

my headphones noise canceling so noise outside i cant hear for most part

[proper ether]

do you guys put your pc under the desk or on the desk

[cyan ravine]

On the desk

[cyan ravine]

Me tbh

[analog pulsar]

Depends

[cyan ravine]

And I'm about to remove all the rgb from a second one too

[analog pulsar]

NOOOOO

[potent portal]

Under my desk but it has a shelf so it's not on the floor

[analog pulsar]

YOU MONSTERS

[cyan ravine]

[rich void]

On my desk

[paper summit]

Oh god theres an anime role now

NO

WHY DO I HAVE IT

[proper ether]

Is it better to have it under or on

[earnest olive]

no difference as long as it's not on the carpet

i put it on my desk for looks

[analog pulsar]

Carpet is fine

Just means it will have more electricity to OC

[cyan ravine]

So smart

I expect no less from you Kenzie

[analog pulsar]

😁

[earnest olive]

ok try rubbing your motherboard all over the carpet and then oc

[analog pulsar]

[earnest olive]

what could go wrong

[little osprey]

This athlon 300U makes me think athlon CPUs might be underrated

Where to get anime role

@earnest olive

[earnest olive]

lmao

@coarse coral

[little osprey]

300U runs skyrim

That in itself

Its pretty good

Is*

I mean it cant handle mods

But

Its 3.7% better than recommended cpu

[earnest olive]

I don't think the athlons are overrated, they got a lot of attention back in the day so people kinda know what they're capable of

[little osprey]

Underrated

I said

[coarse coral]

https://tenor.com/view/kanna-gif-23488672

[earnest olive]

underrated* yeah

they're kinda just

understood

[little osprey]

Kinda makes me wanna get a athlon cpu for my pc

🤔

Whats best athlon cpu rn? @earnest olive

[earnest olive]

probably still the 3000g

wouldn't recommend it unless the total build budget is like $100

[little osprey]

Doubt its th t

That*

Only better than 300U by 11%

[earnest olive]

amd has abandoned the budget market

sooo

yeah

[little osprey]

Suprised its better being that 2cores

300U is 2 too

[cyan ravine]

You'd be better off picking up an optiplex off the side of the road headed for the dump

[little osprey]

😂

[cyan ravine]

Not joking btw lol

Optiplex stonks for super budget

[little osprey]

Im not planning hard gaming

[earnest olive]

amd's cheapest cpu this gen is like $700 for cpu+ram+board

[cyan ravine]

Well, cheapest worthwhile

There are cheaper, we don't talk about those

[earnest olive]

16gb 4800c40 or what

[little osprey]

Any guesses on cyber monday sales?

[cyan ravine]

• cough cough * 4500

[earnest olive]

that's not this gen

[cyan ravine]

• gag cough dies *

[little osprey]

Im not talking new gen

I'll buy new gen when its cheaper, or I become rich, whichever is first

[cyan ravine]

It's still this year

April 2022 isn't really old at all

[earnest olive]

3000g is kinda meh for office pc, better suited with an i3-10100

[little osprey]

Eh, not a office pc

More like

Watching tv, spotify, with small games on the side

[cyan ravine]

Again, optiplex

[earnest olive]

how about we just forget that garbage exists tbh

[cyan ravine]

[little osprey]

Which one

[cyan ravine]

Pretty hard with my brain

[earnest olive]

you want to multitask on a dual core zen 1?

[cyan ravine]

The roadside one

[earnest olive]

[cyan ravine]

It's a 6 core lol what

[earnest olive]

the 3000g

[cyan ravine]

Oh you mean athlon

[little osprey]

Im doing it rn

On 300u

[cyan ravine]

3000g is 2 core?

[little osprey]

Yes

[earnest olive]

a dumpster dive athlon with i5-4460

optiplex*

upgraded with a gt 1030 for $40

will run circles around a 3000g

[little osprey]

lmao

[earnest olive]

and $40 is being really really generous

should be able to get it for cheaper now

[cyan ravine]

And not to mention

Free windows with optiplex

[earnest olive]

even 5700g barely competes with gt 1030

[cyan ravine]

Like once you dip below 10100F territory you really head into heavy used stuff, going well below that, it's just better to use a throwaway really

[earnest olive]

it's dual core zen 1 architecture with 3.5ghz base clock and boost disabled

[cyan ravine]

You will really find better at the dump and not spend a dollar

[earnest olive]

4mb cache

rated for ddr4-2666

zen 1 imc

[cyan ravine]

Does it run crysis chrome?

[little osprey]

Yec

[earnest olive]

would actually not run crysis very well even with a good dgpu lol

[little osprey]

Yes*

[earnest olive]

chrome sure

[little osprey]

Oh

[cyan ravine]

Ofc not crisis

Meme

[little osprey]

Chrome yes

[cyan ravine]

[little osprey]

I didnt know crysis real thing

[cyan ravine]

Chrome version of crisis perhapp

Idk

I'm half serious half yoking rn

[little osprey]

Being 100% serious

[earnest olive]

it just straight up loses to haswell i3s in cpu power

[cyan ravine]

Seriously joking

[earnest olive]

[little osprey]

What should I look for on cyber monday

[cyan ravine]

Yeah dumpster dive an optiplex

[little osprey]

Cpu and mb

[cyan ravine]

Then use the $100 for a used like 1060

Maybe even LP card if you find one

[little osprey]

My state isnt wealthy enough to dumpster dive that

[cyan ravine]

Ok that's an excuse

[little osprey]

XD

Its true

My state poor af

[earnest olive]

look for a school getting rid of old inventory maybe

[little osprey]

Every peep is poor

[cyan ravine]

Old office throwaways

Old school throwaways

University tossing

All very likely to find it

[earnest olive]

schools/companies will sometimes sell old pcs for super cheap if not just toss them

[cyan ravine]

They do that with chairs too

That's how people get super expensive herman millers

Find them used or in the dump for a penny, recondition them to basically new

Profit

It's hard to sell basic stuff like that en masse

[upper ore]

How much cheaper can this ram get by going on sale? Is it worth just getting it now because it probably won't got any lower? Check this out on @Newegg: G.SKILL Trident Z Neo (For AMD Ryzen) Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin RGB PC RAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C16D-32GTZNC https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232861?Item=N82E16820232861&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-20-232-861-_-11102022

[cyan ravine]

Very meh value, you can get 32gb for half that

[fossil cedar]

Knowing g skill not much but there's rgb 3600mhz cl16 for way cheaper

Like right now

[cyan ravine]

Also that kit is usually hynix jjr iirc

So not even worth the extra tbh

[fossil cedar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/8xKKHx/mushkin-redline-lumina-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr4-3600-cl16-memory-mla4c360gkkp16gx2

115 instead of 150

[cyan ravine]

That's a lot better value tbh for xmp

If you were spending 150 on ram at this point I'd fork it out for b die

Or micron ballistix

And even then in new systems that's ddr5 territory by now

[fossil cedar]

Although I'd still recommend like 82$ with rgb or 70$ 3600c18 instead

[fossil cedar]

Rip ballistix

[upper ore]

The reason why I'm getting that one is because it fits the black and white theme I'm going for. And I generally like g.skills products.

[earnest olive]

code red, brand loyalty in build chat

code red

[upper ore]

If I wanted something that was just black I saw some g.skills that were even cheaper the the ones you just posted. And the sme specs

[upper ore]

If I was gonna be brand loyal I would stick to the Asus Strixs graphics cards and gotten the 3080 card from them. But I decided to get the msi trio 3080. Lmao

[earnest olive]

brand loyalty to asus

[upper ore]

But yes I like g.skills products lol

[earnest olive]

my 3090 strix hit 112C out of the box with fans at 4000rpm

don't do it

[cyan ravine]

G.skill trident sticks have a tendency to randomly fall apart

[upper ore]

Not anymore

[cyan ravine]

I experienced this first hand

[earnest olive]

my g.skill ripjaws fell apart

definitely not because it was delidded

[upper ore]

Well ripjaws are terrible lol

[cyan ravine]

Mine committed self delid

What no

Ripjaws are actually better lol

[earnest olive]

i wish my 13700K would commit self delid

😩

also self spawn direct die kit

[earnest olive]

wanna compare ram benchmarks?

[upper ore]

I've had my tridentz for so long

[earnest olive]

[cyan ravine]

Functional heatsink versus a heat trapper with a plastic cover for rgb

Ripjaws actually work properly

[earnest olive]

i never tried putting the heatsink back on

my temps are fine without them

[upper ore]

I think it's funny that you think my dying pc can do a benchmark. 🤣

[cyan ravine]

So lets spin this back a minute

[earnest olive]

it's ok surely you can beat my ram that's been ripped into 3 pieces

[upper ore]

I can barely launch stuff anymore without my pc acting like it's gonna crqsh

[cyan ravine]

Why are you buying more

If you already have tridents

Ram go bad? Lifetime warranty got u

[upper ore]

New pc so I want some higher speed ram

[earnest olive]

🕐

[cyan ravine]

Well you could definitely do cheaper

It's not even one of the better kits

[fossil cedar]

If the old kit is 3000mhz or 3200mhz honestly don't bother

[upper ore]

I would ho for the normal tridentz sticks but I would like something that color scheme.

Go*

[cyan ravine]

You know what matches a steel legend board better?

[earnest olive]

send me your old ram so i can overclock it 8)

[cyan ravine]

One sec

[earnest olive]

my white ballistix looked pretty cute in my b550 steel legend

[fossil cedar]

They did

[earnest olive]

too bad it's living the rest of my life at xmp now

[fossil cedar]

Noooo

[earnest olive]

truly a fate worse than death

when i put it in my friend's build it wasn't getting enough airflow to maintain a 1.53v ram oc

so i had to turn it back to xmp

[cyan ravine]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/B8QcCJ/silicon-power-gaming-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr4-3200-cl16-memory-sp032gxlzu320bdaj7

[earnest olive]

lots of case airflow but nothing direct

[cyan ravine]

[cyan ravine]

Ur not direct

[earnest olive]

[cyan ravine]

[mossy venture]

Sips is very direct

[fossil cedar]

Why not just tone it down a bit ?

[upper ore]

I'm gonna send my current build that I'm buying parts for. So you can kinda see the color I'm going for

[earnest olive]

thats more work than im getting paid for

shes happy with it

good enough

[cyan ravine]

Careful, I might find a lot of cheaper options instead

Lol

[earnest olive]

she mostly just uses it for art streams

and league/valorant

it's good enough

[fossil cedar]

Smh

De teckied

[earnest olive]

ok mr. corsair ram and b450m ds3h

[fossil cedar]

I have ballistix now

https://tenor.com/view/crying-meme-black-guy-cries-sad-man-thank-god-for-my-reefer-hood-news-gif-24902056

Micron really needs to cop on with ddr5 tbh

[cyan ravine]

Inb4 micron dies in ddr5 era

[earnest olive]

i wonder why hynix is so ahead now

[upper ore]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bjZLH2 I do have to add some stuff but this is it so far

[earnest olive]

after being pretty mediocre for ddr4

[cyan ravine]

I feel like it's a bandwidth thing

[earnest olive]

IS THAT A FULL PRICE WINDOWS KEY I SPY

inhales

[fossil cedar]

Maybe they where just focusing on ddr5 and gave up on ddr4

[cyan ravine]

Ur a mod

[earnest olive]

samsung 860 evo

$139

[upper ore]

No i just put that there to operating system. I already have my own thing

[earnest olive]

[cyan ravine]

Ok no, you definitely don't need faster ram

[fossil cedar]

We can't say where you can buy cheaper ones but we can definitely say you can leave it unactivated for free or buy a key from a key site

[earnest olive]

just be a watermark chad

[mossy venture]

13600k, z690 with bios flash or z790, and g360a

[upper ore]

I already own it and will be transferring it over

[earnest olive]

ok

you should

[cyan ravine]

5800X3D doesn't scale with ram much at all

[earnest olive]

set custom prices

so people dont think you are spending $140 on a new 860 evo

[cyan ravine]

So just use your current gskills

[earnest olive]

cause thats cringe

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Xhd7gb like so

but yeah

[upper ore]

Bruh its not something i thought about. This is literally my first build on here

[earnest olive]

the ram upgrade is kinda pointless

[cyan ravine]

You're not thinking of buying a $130 850W are you?

[earnest olive]

consider a better ssd instead

[fossil cedar]

I'd swap the psu tbh that amp is spendy

And possibly gpu

[earnest olive]

as much as i love the mp33

holy crap the 1tb ud90 dropped even more

[cyan ravine]

Gaming z 3080 is a waste yeah

[earnest olive]

IT'S $78

[cyan ravine]

Regular gaming is 799

[upper ore]

I already own the teamgroup and samgung.

[fossil cedar]

P41 solidigm is 140$ 👀

[upper ore]

Bought that already aswell

[cyan ravine]

Omg how much of this have you bought

[upper ore]

I got it when it was $740

[earnest olive]

yooo is it build chat bingo time

[cyan ravine]

3 people are tryna help HE'S MINE

[fossil cedar]

Mark your purchases as purchased please

[cyan ravine]

Ima mark my territory in a minute

[upper ore]

How?

[cyan ravine]

Or just tell us what isn't bought yet

[earnest olive]

sad no bingo

change it to a new 11900K and used 6950xt real quick

[upper ore]

https://tenor.com/view/kermit-death-stare-stare-look-car-gif-17449959

[obsidian wigeon]

hitting the bingo

[earnest olive]

i feel like i need to make the 2023 edition easier to actually bingo

[cyan ravine]

Tell us what not bought sire

We shall assist

[upper ore]

I bought the cpu, cooler, motherboard, i own the evo, bought the teamgroup, bought the gpu, i have a windows key, and the monitor i already own just wanted to show it because its my main monitor. I had Fal help with this build and he suggested the Teamgroup nvme and i listened to him.

I really want the Phanteks Eclipse because it looks like a nice case and i plan on vertically mounting my gpu.

[obsidian wigeon]

okay so we're too late to assist much

aside from the case that is

but the case is fine

[upper ore]

Yup because i went to fal'cie and he helped me with this build awhile back. And he said it was pretty good

[obsidian wigeon]

ah well, lists like these doesn't always remain the same

[upper ore]

I only simply asked about if i could get that tridentz neo for cheaper if i waited for a better sale.

[obsidian wigeon]

fair

i would take others' words still, use your current gskill ram

[upper ore]

And then i said the only reason i was going with that ram is because of the color scheme so i sent the list so people could see the color i was going for. Ik color doesnt mean everything. But i want it to atleast look good

Let me find my other ram on newegg and ill post it

Nope nvm its only 16gbs of ram i need 32 and i dont want to run quad channel so thats why im getting 2 sticks of 16.

[cyan ravine]

Change the psu and don't buy new ram

What speed is your old g.skills

[upper ore]

3200 but i need more ram for work

Thats why i need 32gbs of ram

This will be a work/streaming/gaming pc

[cyan ravine]

3200 2x8?

[upper ore]

Yes

Ill post them one sec

[cyan ravine]

Change your psu to this and save 40%

[cyan ravine]

Ah yes basic g.skills

[upper ore]

And to clarify im not trying to build a budget build

[cyan ravine]

Heck you could even buy 2 more and be likely fine

[cyan ravine]

No but you wanna save money where you can

No point in sinking into diminishing returns

[upper ore]

I heard going quad channel can actually be slower then dual channel

[cyan ravine]

Not really no

[earnest olive]

you cannot go quad channel on this platform

[cyan ravine]

Quad sticks being slower depends on more than it just being 4 sticks btw

Whether it's single or dual rank weighs in heavily to that

[earnest olive]

4 dimms being slower is usually a frequency limit based on the IMC

however you are so far from IMC limit here that it's not a consideration

[cyan ravine]

I would suggest these sticks for 32gb
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/JhC48d/silicon-power-xpower-zenith-rgb-gaming-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr4-3200-cl16-memory-sp032gxlzu320bdd

[earnest olive]

it really is a waste to get premium ram with the 5800x3d, it doesn't scale like other ryzens do

3200c16 vs tuned b-die is like a 1% difference

[cyan ravine]

3200 vs 3600 you'll barely notice a difference

[earnest olive]

compared to like 20-30% on non-x3d chips

lol

3d vcache putting in work

[cyan ravine]

Yeah the extra cache basically lifts the burden off the ram so speed means basically nothing as the ram doesn't even really try

[upper ore]

I was just told this when i was pick out my ram with fal. "2 sticks
4 sticks hurts performance potential" So i listened because he knew more than me

[earnest olive]

it can, but not in this case

[cyan ravine]

Ye it can but that's a bit of a general statement

In this case yeah it won't

You'll also save a bit and keep the g.skills you want

[earnest olive]

it's like

saying it's harder to fit 4 irregular shapes into a box than 2

[upper ore]

So whats this about my cpu i heard and saw amazing things about the cpu with how it scales with some of the best cpu's to date?

[earnest olive]

that may be true sometimes

but right now your irregular shapes are the size of your palm and the box is an olympic swimming pool

[upper ore]

Typo by bad lol

[cyan ravine]

Whoever said that doesn't really know much about vcache

[earnest olive]

i don't think he meant scales with ram

[cyan ravine]

Oh my bad

[earnest olive]

yes, the 5800x3d keeps up with the newer generation stuff in games

in productivity it will fall behind

[cyan ravine]

Sorry it's 2am I've been drinking

[upper ore]

Well talk to Fal'cie he highly recommended it to me

[cyan ravine]

[earnest olive]

it is a good cpu

as long as your main use case is gaming

[cyan ravine]

I thought it said ram in that sentence

The cpu is very good, keeps up with 13900K

[earnest olive]

it's not bad for productivity, but better options exist for a productivity focused build

[upper ore]

It will be mainly used for gaming and maybe streaming at some point

[earnest olive]

then yeah no problems

stream off of the 3080

[upper ore]

I just use my pc when i have to work from home and thats why i need the extra ram.

[cyan ravine]

What do you do for work?

[still roost]

Naz#9092 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[cyan ravine]

[upper ore]

Cmon i hate that lol

I said youll were scaring the crap out of me for a second there

It was sh** and so the stupid bot warned me lol

[cyan ravine]

Sorry mate I misread the last bit

It's really good as a cpu, I thought ram was mentioned in that statement

But ye what do you do when you work from home?

[upper ore]

You wouldnt know the company but ill tell you i work with different big dealerships. I drive their cars, put together the specs and info for the cars and take pictures of the cars and most them on their site or then them the info

[cyan ravine]

Brochures?

You use editing software?

[upper ore]

He suggested me some ram but he said i should only get it if i planned on overclocking it. So i find the ones i posted before and he said those would work just fine.

[upper ore]

Not exactly

[cyan ravine]

As we said overclocking ram on X3D is sort of a moot point

[upper ore]

Most of it is online stuff but with some window stickers that i would put on the cars.

[earnest olive]

to be clear nothing in your build is objectively bad

some decisions could be better

but nothing is objectively bad

[cyan ravine]

Ah ok so you're doing like, editing, photoshop, printing etc

Ye I could justify 32gb ram with that

Big pics brrrr

[earnest olive]

the power supply is the biggest thing where you could have saved money for no loss at all

[upper ore]

Big companies to so they have to look good lol

[cyan ravine]

Just asking cos you have all these little things that can be trimmed and you'll lose no performance

It'll be the same speed and all for bits and pieces less

I'd just pick up 2 more g.skill sticks of 3200 tbh

[upper ore]

He suggested that power supply because i was about to get a corsair. This was near the end of the build so he probably just gave me a decent one just so that the part list can be completed.

[cyan ravine]

Definitely change the psu

[mossy venture]

Rmx is great, just more expensive than other same quality units

[cyan ravine]

No 850W is worth 130$

[upper ore]

Also i havent bought the psu yet so i can still switch

[cyan ravine]

This is 90
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mQDkcf/super-flower-leadex-iii-gold-750-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-sf-750f14hg

[mossy venture]

I'd just get gf1 or mwe gold v2, I think that's $94

[upper ore]

Wtf is that company lol

[cyan ravine]

They make psu's for the big brands, an oem

[mossy venture]

They make a lot of good psus. Evga often uses them for OEMs

[cyan ravine]

Evga used to use them

[earnest olive]

super flower is a very good brand

[cyan ravine]

Indeed, excellent brand

[earnest olive]

chances are decent that you've used a super flower psu without knowing

[cyan ravine]

One of the few brands on the tier list that iirc has only good choices

Always tier c or up

Leadex III gold is not an RMx no but it is a stonkingly good psu

[upper ore]

God so what im gonna say makes want to cringe so badly because for like everything else that isnt this pc i normally dont care much. But here i go

Its gonna be showing in the case im getting and it doesnt look that eye appealing. The price is amazing for what you guys are saying the quality is. So im having 2 conflicting sides rn of my train of thought and its a pain.

https://tenor.com/view/facepalm-really-stressed-mad-angry-gif-16109475

[earnest olive]

put a sticker on it

but yes that is a valid point super flower doesn't care a whole lot about making em pretty

[upper ore]

Wont it melt the sticker tho? lol

[earnest olive]

no

[cyan ravine]

No

[earnest olive]

if your power supply is getting that hot

[cyan ravine]

Get a big black sticker

[earnest olive]

well uhh

praying for you

[cyan ravine]

For like $5

And you'll be net positive

And it'll be cleaner looking

[earnest olive]

put an anime girl on it for free reddit points

[cyan ravine]

Cuwute

[obsidian wigeon]

time to put furry stickers on my laptop

[earnest olive]

so brave

[cyan ravine]

Time to put pc build stickers on my pc

||I've discovered the new meta||

[earnest olive]

i am going to put my i7 sticker on my ipad

[cyan ravine]

Stick it on a random tesla

[earnest olive]

i7 sticker on my water bottle

i have an intel stock cooler sticker on my air purifier

they both loud as heck

it fits

[upper ore]

So yeah this the case im getting. I heard it perfect for vertically mounting my gpu and it allows for good airflow. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/GmhmP6/phanteks-eclipse-p500a-d-rgb-atx-mid-tower-case-ph-ec500atg_dwt01 Any complaints? Im not worried about the price but i might wait and see if it gets cheaper which it has but i missed out on it.

[cyan ravine]

Would do g360a tbh

[earnest olive]

absolutely do not use the built in vertical gpu mount in that case

unless you want to join no side panel gang

[cyan ravine]

G360a is supposed to do it all without overspending

[earnest olive]

count the number of slots available for vertical mount

now count the number of slots your gpu takes

subtract them to get the amount of airflow your gpu will get

[cyan ravine]

-1 slot airflow per minute

[upper ore]

Can you just tell me? lol

[earnest olive]

3 - 3 = 0

you'd need to just get a vertical adapter kit if you really want to vertical mount

[upper ore]

My gpu takes that many spaces? huh

[earnest olive]

or run no side panel

have you looked at it? lol

[cyan ravine]

Integrated vertical mounts like that one stick the fans against the glass so they don't pull in any air at all

[earnest olive]

bro is a bit of a chonker

[cyan ravine]

There are better cases for vertical mounting

[upper ore]

😂

[earnest olive]

there's a reason they include a support bracket with it

[upper ore]

Best thing said all day lol

[earnest olive]

i had to fit a gaming z trio 3070ti into an h510 once

would not recommend

[cyan ravine]

For example iirc the 5000D you can flip the main slots instead so you can vertical mount itwithout it being anywhere near glass

Gpu next to glass = performance loss

[earnest olive]

that clearance

had to remove the radiator to install the gpu lmao

[upper ore]

Well send me a good mounting kit

[cyan ravine]

I've had a tighter fit

I fit a gpu not meant for a 220T into a 220T

20mm too long

[upper ore]

But this case looks tiny lol

[cyan ravine]

And yet

I still had front fans

[earnest olive]

but that's not a vertical mount

[cyan ravine]

[earnest olive]

ah yes the 220T

the case that aged like milk

[cyan ravine]

I'll dig it up, old build pic

Cringe but funny

[earnest olive]

during 20 series: oh yeah this case is pretty good

during 30 series: what case? never heard of it

i had to slide this gpu in diagonally lol

it's almost touching the front fan

like 1mm clearance

[analog pulsar]

I can do better

[upper ore]

So what i good kit that i should get? @earnest olive

[cyan ravine]

Mine was wedged against the fan I can't bloody find it

[earnest olive]

https://www.amazon.com/EZDIY-FAB-US-4-0CM-GPU-W/dp/B096MBB6M1/

toss this in a cheaper case like a G360A

[cyan ravine]

I specifically bought a thin noctua fan to make it fit LMAO

[earnest olive]

https://www.amazon.com/EZDIY-FAB-Vertical-Bracket-Graphic-Support/dp/B09WR6GXTL/ also comes with an rgb bar for $7 more lol

[analog pulsar]

@earnest olive

[upper ore]

But i like this case alot lol

[earnest olive]

ah yes the bent ram

[analog pulsar]

NO

[earnest olive]

G360A is very similar looking

but if you like the P500A and are willing to pay for it then go ahead

[analog pulsar]

@earnest olive what is wrong in this photo?

[earnest olive]

sir what is going on at the top

[cyan ravine]

Exactly what it looks like

[earnest olive]

sir what is going on here

[cyan ravine]

Sir

[earnest olive]

https://tenor.com/view/hamster-shocked-afraid-gif-13368273

[upper ore]

So the price is the only thing wrong with it?

[cyan ravine]

Hey I told you it was cringe

[earnest olive]

yeah pretty much

you gonna be paying a lot for a p500a+vert mount

[analog pulsar]

Mines worst

[earnest olive]

that's like $250 just for your case basically

[analog pulsar]

Daisy chain best chain

[cyan ravine]

Should I show you the light settings I liked to use 2 years ago?

I definitely have a pic of that

[earnest olive]

is it full rainbow vomit?

[upper ore]

My plan is to wait abit for it to get cheaper anyways. I plan on building this pc in the new year.

[earnest olive]

bruh

didn't you say your pc is dying

LOL

[mossy venture]

prices will be very different

[earnest olive]

just buy a g360a and be done with it

[analog pulsar]

RAINBOW IS NICE DONT DISRESPECT

[cyan ravine]

[earnest olive]

p500a has been the same price like, forever

[cyan ravine]

FROM EVERY ORIFICE YOU NEVER EXPECTED

[earnest olive]

waiting for it to get cheaper isn't really gonna work

oh god

what is this

[cyan ravine]

Ram wouldn't fit

[earnest olive]

i have a video somewhere of when i tried rainbow vomit on my pc

idk if i can find it

[cyan ravine]

So I, came up with a solution

[upper ore]

Nah it dropped down to 150 awhile ago but i had no way to buy it at the time

[cyan ravine]

That fan eventually went on the front next to the gpu and the gpu was wedged straight

This case has seen some atrocities

But now I don't do any of that

I'm now in the no rgb crowd lmao

[earnest olive]

I'm uncomfortable

[earnest olive]

white g360a is 110

[cyan ravine]

Def g360a over p500a

Unless you really really want that extra large size

Can make fitting it on the desk a bit painful tho

Very thicc

[earnest olive]

i need a shower after seeing that much rgb

brb

[cyan ravine]

[earnest olive]

ah... someone else is in the shower

i can't yet

oh no

i can already smell myself starting to smell like GAMER

[cyan ravine]

AHHH SAVE ME

YOUTUBE HAS BEEN READING OUR CHAT AND NOW MY ADS ARE RGB

[earnest olive]

i need some sodium hydroxide to neutralize this mountain dew sweat immediately

[cyan ravine]

Deodorise urself

[earnest olive]

the gamer musk is taking over

[cyan ravine]

[analog pulsar]

OMG AMAZING

LOVE IT

[cyan ravine]

Try and copy sips

Become the rgb you wanted to be

Become the light

[upper ore]

That is alot not gonna lie

[earnest olive]

need more

there are no led strips in there

[upper ore]

I think its kinda weird how newegg doesnt have the P500a

[fossil cedar]

Epileptic warning pls

[cyan ravine]

God this reminds me

I have so much rgb in storage

Ew

[fossil cedar]

Rgb ssd?

Reee

[cyan ravine]

I never installed the heatsink

I really had a lot, now it's all packed up cos bleh

That got old quick

[fossil cedar]

Moar rgb

[upper ore]

Lmfao what would you say if i got this one lol

[cyan ravine]

You'd be doing better than the stock mount with that

Also you could do that while swapping to g360a for no loss

[upper ore]

Huh?

[cyan ravine]

The stock vertical mount will choke the gpu for air in the p500a

[upper ore]

Ill think about it but ive head my sights set on the 500a for awhile now i cant just change my mind out of nowhere lol

[upper ore]

Oh i thought you were talking about the one that he sent that had no rgb

[cyan ravine]

It's a real thing, think like, 3080 slowing down to nearly 3070 Ti performance sorta problem

[upper ore]

Because yeah i understand the chocking now

[cyan ravine]

It can get to be that bad

[upper ore]

I bet

But no i was confused i was thinking you were talking about the stock mount that had no rgb that he sent lol

[cyan ravine]

Oh no

I can vouch for that mount being good tho

I have the tiltable one

[upper ore]

Yeah thats why i was making the joke about having the extra rgb

[cyan ravine]

The rgb on those mounts actually looks alright tho

Good diffusion on the newer ezdiy-fab stuff

Better than a lot of mainstream brands

[upper ore]

I honestly dont want to draw more attention to the gpu then it already will be. Nothing like a graphite colored gpu with a white and black theme build 😅

[cyan ravine]

Paint the shroud white then

Take the gpu out, take the graphite cover off and paint it with white plastidip

[upper ore]

Thats safe for the gpu and everything?

[cyan ravine]

Plastidip is safe

It's also not permanent

It applies almost like paint but comes off and peels as a rubber

So you can make it look stock again in a few minutes

[upper ore]

https://www.amazon.com/Plasti-Dip-Multi-Purpose-Rubberized-Coating/dp/B00K1LXVJK/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3NZ4TL81UXBE0&keywords=white+plastidip&qid=1668094393&sprefix=white+plastidip%2Caps%2C86&sr=8-1 This stuff?

[cyan ravine]

Yeah that's it

You'll need to check if you can remove the rgb on the shroud first safely

But ye that's the gist

[upper ore]

Do i just put painting tape over the parts i dont want painted like the rgb strips?

[cyan ravine]

Ye if they don't come off ye

I've never taken a gaming trio apart so don't blame me if it's too complicated

[upper ore]

These rtx cards can get pretty hot tho lol

[cyan ravine]

You might want to bring extra thermal paste for this cos it usually means a repaste of the gpu

[cyan ravine]

It's fine tbh

[earnest olive]

what's wrong with it? i linked it for a reason

it's good

[cyan ravine]

I've done it to two rtx cards, painted them white

[upper ore]

If you read the rest of our convo i was making a joke about the extra rgb lmao

[cyan ravine]

Why pay for white tax when white paint works well lol

[earnest olive]

oh

i mean

have you seen how much rgb is in my pc

[upper ore]

Making a little crack at that rgb to the extra build

[upper ore]

Is that the one you posted that you said you needed to shower with how extra it was?

[earnest olive]

yes

that's my pc

i also did just shower

[upper ore]

Damn lol

I didnt realize you like that much rgb

[earnest olive]

all of the lights are set to solid white 100% of the time

[upper ore]

Are you atleast able to change the colors?

[earnest olive]

yes

[cyan ravine]

Oh yeah sips is an rgb addict

[earnest olive]

i sent a picture of what i actually daily earlier

[earnest olive]

this

solid white light good

[upper ore]

How do you tell if you can change the colors of the rgb on a case before you get it?

[earnest olive]

p500a and g360a both can

[upper ore]

Alright good

Do you guys want to see what i current pc? It was my first ever pc build that i picked out most of the parts by myself lol

@earnest olive Ready to play bingo? I built this pc in January of 2019

[cyan ravine]

Ima redeem myself btw this is what I daily now

[earnest olive]

[earnest olive]

there's no 2019 edition bingo

[upper ore]

Well it somehow is no longer on my pc part picker so i have to remake it real quick

[fossil cedar]

Did you guys play bingo without me :p

[upper ore]

Theres a new one coming up lol

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nyhXpH Here was my first build lol

[fossil cedar]

Not bad

For 2019

[upper ore]

And think about this i did this by myself for the very first time

[fossil cedar]

Better choices than my first build lol

[upper ore]

Case sucks so bad tho

[earnest olive]

lol my first build also had a crap case

[fossil cedar]

Same

[cyan ravine]

Mine was a mismatch

Also contained p-gm at one point

[fossil cedar]

My first case was a CIT venom

The power button just died

🙃

[cyan ravine]

The p-gm just died

[fossil cedar]

You not wrong

[cyan ravine]

It could've exploded tho

So I was lucky

[fossil cedar]

Phew

[analog pulsar]

bruh

[analog pulsar]

I will

[leaden raft]

Hey y’all I wanna switch up my pc build go smaller, and cleaner any suggestions on cases fans and aio that match?

Or have little to no branding

[paper summit]

ARTIIIIIIICCCC

P12s

[fossil cedar]

Like daniel said, arctic p12 or p14 for 140mm, best bet is usually the 5 pack of p12 pst fans for like 35$ though as for aio, arctic liquid freezer ii matches

And is like a top 2 aio

[leaden raft]

Are there rgb

[frigid night]

Yes. They have 3-packs for $43

[frigid night]

I.. have yet to find a build worth putting this 3 pack of elites in. Got them sealed on craiglist for $17

[fossil cedar]

There are rgb versions ye

The way you phrased it it sounded like you wanted just all black, deepcool fc120 fans and ls720 or ls520 are good alternatives for the aio too

[leaden raft]

I just have like an enourmous 5000d with ql120 and and Corsair 360 aio

It’s ass

Lol

[paper summit]

Ls720 goated

[wise nebula]

my friend is building his gaming computer and he forgot to take the cpu cooler sticker off of the end before putting it on his cpu and installed it, he purchased a MSI MAG Coreliquid 360R and he's mentioning a clamp that's keeping it stuck on his mobo, how would he take off the clamp safely to remove the sticker from his cpu cooler

?

[leaden mauve]

Anyone have TV knowledge? #old-monitors-and-tv is super dead at the moment, and I need help.

Guys, is this a good Deal? https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hisense-75-Class-4K-UHD-LCD-Roku-Smart-TV-HDR-R6-Series-75R6030G/1133360896?athbdg=L1800

I only have $500 (with a little wiggle room) to spend, and want to get the best deal. ANY 75" for $448 is an amazing deal, or so least I think, given my very small TV Knowledge. However, I am worried about the longevity and quality of the TV. I know Hisense is known for their Cheap TVs. Should I really be using my budget to buy one of their systems?

[covert crypt]

Hey guys I need help,

I recently bought a new Nvme for my computer as I currently have an hdd, ssd, and nvme installed into my computer so I bought another storage drive for Nvme as my Asus Tuf x570 (wifi) supports two Nvme slots.

However when I boot up the computer it brings me to Asus tuf logo which it is stuck on and when I press f2 or del to enter bios from there nothing happens and it’s stuck on Asus Tuf logo.

I tried unplugging the keyboard and trying various usb slots in my computer to see if that works and nothing happens I even tried three different keyboards and still nothing happens.

[cyan ravine]

try cmos reset

you'll want to read your manual on where it is on the board

you do it by turning the power off, pulling the plug out, hold the power button for 2 seconds, bridge the two cmos pins with like a wire, screwdriver or something else metal for 10 seconds, then plug it back in and try again

also make sure the keyboard is being recognised and on when the system turns on, some don't do that consistently (might need an alternative keyboard for setup)

[tiny tusk]

Hey this might be a silly question but i have 7 case fans and 3 additional ones on the radiator of my cpu cooler how many should be intake and exhaust im currently running 3 exhaust up top on the radiator and 1 on the back of the case as exhaust the rest are intake and theyre on the bottom of the case and the back panel of the case next to the mobo

[frigid night]

Generally you'll want more intake than exhaust. Since you have 6 intake and 4 exhaust in the configuration you described, I'd say you are golden.

[covert crypt]

Found out the issue had to update bios zzz

[merry spindle]

Is there a list of motherboards that are compatible with Ryzen 7 5800X3D out of box and I don't have to flash BIOS beforehand?

[potent portal]

It's more a matter of whether a recent enough bios version is installed. Pure luck really. You can get a board with flashback so you don't need to worry.

[merry spindle]

I mean sure, most motherboards I'm shopping for right now have usb bios flashing

I was just curious is all

Oh well

[upper ore]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t03rmc-prJo No way this thing can breath lol

[potent portal]

You'll be able to tell if it works once you receive the board. The bios version is on the box and you can check on the support page which version works.

[merry spindle]

Oh really? That's good to know

[potent portal]

Yep, it's on the side with all the barcodes

[fleet heron]

Sorry for the bad pics but does this matchup? I feel Like it's downloading extremely slow

Or am I missing something

[potent portal]

158Mb = 19.75MB so it's a little slower than your max but you'll rarely hit max when downloading. ISPs know to prioritize speedtest traffic because they can.

[fleet heron]

Daym ic

ISP means internet service provider?

[potent portal]

Yes

[fleet heron]

Ah I was right lmao

So 158 mb is an ok speed?

[potent portal]

Speedtest is ok for finding your absolute max at a given time but other things will be de-prioritized or congestion on the network will slow it down.

150 is fine

[fleet heron]

Ah that's fair

[desert nebula]

Fal do you know what causes the pc to freeze when playing video games

[potent portal]

Freeze completely as in doesn't go again, or stuttering where it works after a second

[desert nebula]

Freezing

Where it doesn't go again

https://github.com/NeweggTechie/Graphics-cards/wiki/How-to-use-DDU

[merry spindle]

What kind of features am I looking for in a M.2 ssd to put my games in? Read write speeds?

[potent portal]

MP33 is great for that

[cyan ravine]

honestly? value for money

lowest price

games don't need anything crazy fast

[potent portal]

Games like random iops, not straight sequential read

[merry spindle]

Is this the case for 1080p?

[potent portal]

Any resolution

Things might change when Direct Storage is more used... but so far only one game supports it and there's next to no benefit.

[merry spindle]

I see now

[cyan ravine]

mp33, A60/P34A60 are both good in a lot of countries rn

if you're in the US I believe Silicon power UD80 is only a tiny bit more for gen 4 performance at 1TB

[merry spindle]

Does random iops make that huge of a difference?

[potent portal]

It's not huge but it is measurable

And noticeable on some games

[merry spindle]

Any examples of games where it's noticeable?

[potent portal]

Mostly larger games that take a long time to load like flight sim and cod

[merry spindle]

I take it games that surpass 100 GB?

[potent portal]

Definitely those ones

[merry spindle]

Though I read somewhere that while a game like Cyberpunk 2077 was more than 100 GB, a significant portion was due to language packs

[merry spindle]

Regarding ram, is a CAS latency of 16 that much better than 18?

[potent portal]

It's more a matter of overall latency. 3200 c16 is functionally the same as 3600 c18. 3600 is better for ryzen 3000+ though.

Better latency kits like 3600 c16 can help with stuttering and frame drops when gaming. Otherwise it's a small impact.

[desert nebula]

What's that?

[woven horizon]

#build-pics total cost ~$700 USD what do you all think?

[potent portal]

Display Driver Uninstaller, it'll completely delete all of your graphics drivers and settings, including things the official uninstallers leave behind. That way when you reinstall, it's totally fresh.

[potent portal]

Not bad for the budget, especially squeezing in a 3070. H510 is a bit sad but eh, it's cheap and you can leave the side panel off if needed.

[woven horizon]

I build PCs for people who can’t afford the boutique prices. I think it’s fair to say they would have used an H510 motherboard as well and sold it for substantially more.

[desert nebula]

After that will it fix it? I won't have to do anything aftwr?

[potent portal]

It's likely that will fix it. Maybe 90% chance.

Corrupt gpu drivers are very common

[earnest olive]

i think he meant the case

[woven horizon]

I don’t think temp are going to be an issue. Idle and it’s at 22C, that’s cooler than my 3070ti in the Corsair 4000d with the glass panel on. I’m about to benchmark it.

[potent portal]

Idle doesn't matter at all

[earnest olive]

gpu temps are also pretty fine in the h510

cpu temps are the issue

but with a 3600 it will be whatever

pretty much have to boot without a cooler to make that thing overheat

just hope you got good prices on those h510s cause...

they're still pretty garbage cases

[woven horizon]

$45 bucks good?

[earnest olive]

meh

[potent portal]

I'm sure it'll be ok for an average user but it would be outside my comfort zone personally

[analog pulsar]

Nzxt is fine

My i9 11900k only got to 90C

But that was under 250W

I can't speak for h510 never had it but I can speak about h710 and the aios

[earnest olive]

you also had an h710, which is quite a bit better than the h510 in that regard

[analog pulsar]

Plus better aio

[woven horizon]

I think we are okay.

[analog pulsar]

I switched from 280 to 360

[earnest olive]

idk, are you?

that doesn't look ok to me

[analog pulsar]

💀

[woven horizon]

It’s doing blend

[earnest olive]

...and?

you hit an error in less than 1 minute of prime95

i sure hope you are not intending to sell that before you fix such an impressive degree of instability

[woven horizon]

Hmm I see now

[analog pulsar]

What's wrong

Temp and wattage seem okay

Why error

[earnest olive]

might be the corsair ram lol

[woven horizon]

Tbh probably

[earnest olive]

run a mem test first

is cpu at stock?

no undervolt?

[woven horizon]

Yeah it’s stock. The ram has warranty so I’ll do memtest and contact Corsair.

[earnest olive]

shouldn't be an imc issue at 3200

[woven horizon]

It’s just 1 core all the rest are running.

[earnest olive]

can still be a symptom of ram

[woven horizon]

Well starting memtest. See you guys in 10 hours I guess.

[earnest olive]

ram errors are often very intermittent

probably just coincidence that that core happened to encounter an error first

[potent portal]

It's also A320 and RAM compatibility is... rough

[earnest olive]

well, yes, but it's only 3200

every a320 board with a bios update for zen 2/3 must be compatible with 3200

otherwise there is a valid rma reason

3200 is base spec after all

[potent portal]

Yes but it might not work with every die/pcb

[earnest olive]

well, i suppose it should at least up to 3200c22

maybe not 3200c16

[potent portal]

Anyway I do agree a mem test is in order

[earnest olive]

more likely for corsair ram to be faulty than for even an a320 board to fail so quickly at ddr4-3200 imo

could be degraded cpu as well but that chance is slimmer than ram or board

[potent portal]

It would take some real doing to degrade an IMC from a chip that's not that old

[earnest olive]

cpu core could be degraded

p95 can fail from both cpu or ram

or fclk even

[potent portal]

True

fclk I doubt heavily

[earnest olive]

think about how many people did stupid ocs on 3600s

[analog pulsar]

You want small here you go

[earnest olive]

GUYS CTR SAID MY CPU PLATINUM SAMPLE STABLE 5.0GHZ 1.5V

GIVE REDDIT POINT

[potent portal]

I've run my IMC hard into the ground and it still does 3800c14 pretty easily

[earnest olive]

i remember seeing a reddit post asking if his 4.8ghz oc was good on his 3600

[potent portal]

fclk still as stable as the day I got it

[earnest olive]

and people were like

that's an insane oc, how high is your voltage?

"1.65v"

that 3600 was not long for this world

[analog pulsar]

My rams 1.4v at 3500 👀

[potent portal]

Yep I barely felt comfortable doing 1.4v on my 2700 and that's an older node

[earnest olive]

considering the difference in voltage tolerances

running 1.65v on 3600 is like running 1.9v on your 2700 LOL

[potent portal]

Fair

[earnest olive]

mm i love the smell of cooked cpu in the morning

[woven horizon]

The 3600 may not be long for this world. I offer warranty anyways so if it breaks I’ll fix it. :/

Anybody got any ideas ?

[cyan ravine]

building it seems pr gud rn

[devout lodge]

I recently bought a cyperpower pc like 5 days ago and it’s been giving me issues

I just might as well build one

[torpid loom]

can i post a link to my list here?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zLrFyK

[obsidian wigeon]

To be honest here, that list is atrocious

Lemme fix it up real quick

[torpid loom]

okay thank you

why is it so bad tho

i did some reasearch

it said it wont bottle neck

or like

idk

[cyan ravine]

it's not the worst but could def be better

ima post one too

[torpid loom]

okay thank you guys so much

its going to be my birthday soon and im going to try and convince my parents to buy me a computer and monitor

I just wanna know what to get

[cyan ravine]

saved you 100$ here

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FJx3Mb

same or slightly better in every instance

[torpid loom]

thanks!

@cyan ravine do you think this will be able to run rust and different games like valorant, minecraft, and rainbow six siege?

[cyan ravine]

yeah def

[obsidian wigeon]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/H4CYtn

[cyan ravine]

we can bump up the gpu ye

[obsidian wigeon]

I think mine is better tho

[cyan ravine]

I just seen the list above did that

lol

[obsidian wigeon]

case can be changed

i just chose what's best in my opinion

it's objectively good too tho

[cyan ravine]

monitor?

[obsidian wigeon]

oop

right

[torpid loom]

which one is better performance and best budget?

[cyan ravine]

kek

[obsidian wigeon]

gimme a min

whether you wanna spend 900 or 1000 both are good

[obsidian wigeon]

well felix did it good

[cyan ravine]

lots need changing here, what are you using it for?

[torpid loom]

its not really my money so i think the 900 one probs going to be my best chance

[brittle spindle]

gaming, budget is 1500 and i need a moniter keyboard and a mouse

[cyan ravine]

[brittle spindle]

Check in #peripherals-and-displays on the keyboard choice, I'm not sure if it's the right keychron or not

[brittle spindle]

Wow

[cyan ravine]

12400f will be faster than a 10700

[brittle spindle]

no its an amazing list

[cyan ravine]

oh i c lol

[brittle spindle]

but i see less storage and less rgb

bro honestly

if i was buying this i would rock with it

but its my friend who is and he just said gaming

he didnt say anything else

[cyan ravine]

ah true, I don't list HDD's anymore

[cyan ravine]

ye this is for gaming

I can add more storage and a bit more rgb but the specs will drop a bit

unless they don't need wifi, I can work with no wifi a bit better

[brittle spindle]

um, i wish i could tell you but ig add more storage and rgb but keep wifi

[cyan ravine]

ok

omg I made it fit

nvm, specs barely worse

almost the same

oh wait I'm missing a bit one sec

[brittle spindle]

ok

thats fine take ur time

@brittle spindle this one ^^^^

[brittle spindle]

will that motherboard have suppported the cpu

[cyan ravine]

you can take the cpu cooler off for $20 less but that's less rgb so I left it on to keep the rgb there even tho it's $1520*

yes it will, it just needs a bios update which you can do with the board when you get it

takes 5 minutes, doesn't cost anything

[brittle spindle]

that first list i sent you would it be fine?

[cyan ravine]

the first list you sent?

that's much slower

it'll barely do 1080p

[brittle spindle]

damn

[cyan ravine]

this list will do 1440p comfortably

[brittle spindle]

wouldnt the r5 bottleneck?

[cyan ravine]

nope

[earnest olive]

it's a much better cpu than the one you chose lol

[cyan ravine]

as resolution goes higher bottlenecks on the cpu reduce

[brittle spindle]

how about 1080p?

[earnest olive]

the i7-10700 you chose loses to an i3-12100 in games

[cyan ravine]

Uhhh, I wouldn't use a 6800 on 1080p tbh

unless it's like, warzone ultra all day

[brittle spindle]

hmm

[earnest olive]

6800 at 1080p is perfectly fine

it all depends on your expectations

define normal tasks

[cyan ravine]

no not really

[earnest olive]

define light

[cyan ravine]

youtube yes

[obsidian wigeon]

6700u can handle older games

[cyan ravine]

work and word processing yes

[earnest olive]

you can run minecraft at 30 fps with no texture packs maybe

[obsidian wigeon]

8k youtube, no

[earnest olive]

8k youtube? lol what

why?

[obsidian wigeon]

i mean it could, with frame skips
