If you have no more fan headers on your board for powering the fans that is your only option

little osprey Nov 24, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

Ok an I just ran in to a problem

Back fan has no spot for power

no more fan outputs on the mobo?

#

might need a fan controller for all those fans. my case came with one so i didnt have to worry about it

but is looking alot better

the main power cant be ran in back?

#

too short?

little osprey Nov 24, 2019, 5:37 PM

#

It's to short

tidal bluff Nov 24, 2019, 5:37 PM

#

ah

#

later u can get some cable mod cables if u want it ran in back

#

i bought a kit for mine so all my power cables are red

#

and have combs on them

#

but its mainly preference

You want a mesh front panel not a glass one

Just from looking at it there is very little to no airflow from the front

Already from this image it does look like there is no airflow https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71A9BMX7gtL._SL1500_.jpg

This is the Rosewill case but you would have a very similar look if you install RGB fans on that case https://www.rosewill.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/01-3.jpg

#

im trying to get the corsair 570x for black friday and is listed at 120

#

it says that you save $20 mail in rebate card

#

does that mean im not paying 120$/

#

?

latent bronze Nov 24, 2019, 7:10 PM

#

You're paying 120$ now and you have to send in the rebait by mail in order to get back the 20$

#

which is normally sent by a pre paid credit card

dark raven Nov 24, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

Prepaid gift card

#

Not credit

plush merlin Nov 24, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

so what if I dont do that will I pay 140 instead?

dark raven Nov 24, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

No

latent bronze Nov 24, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

Well i did a mail in rebait and got a 50$ master card so ya pre paid credit card

dark raven Nov 24, 2019, 7:11 PM

#

Unless it says after mailing rebate

#

Master card gift cards are still gift cards

#

Can you spend more than what was issued on it?

latent bronze Nov 24, 2019, 7:12 PM

#

But it is still a credit card

#

one or the other it is both right

plush merlin Nov 24, 2019, 7:12 PM

#

so if I paid with a credit card I wont get the 20$ saved?

dark raven Nov 24, 2019, 7:12 PM

#

Credit cards are used to buy on a given loan or credit

#

No no

#

You buy it, then mail In something then you get a 20 dollar visa or MasterCard gift card

#

When it arrives

So I am re-mounting my gpu when I get home, right now it is horizontally mounted on my mobo, I will be mounting it vertically with a vertical mount bracket. My question is, will I have to do anything, like in the bios, once I change the mounting position? Or will everything stay as is

deep skiff Nov 24, 2019, 8:40 PM

#

should stay as it is

floral barn Nov 24, 2019, 8:42 PM

Ok so once I unplug it and mount it in the new spot and plug the riser cable in everything should still be the same.

Can someone help me build a computer for this black friday? I mostly play modern warfare but plan to play more graphic intense games in the future. My budget is a bit over $1000 and hopefully some good deals on black friday. I was thinking maybe i7 with 1080ti?

floral barn Nov 24, 2019, 9:23 PM

Cool. Thanks @deep skiff

#

1080ti is over $1k by itself

deep skiff Nov 24, 2019, 9:25 PM

#

for new ones

#

they have nearly no stock, so they increase the price like crazy. I'd say on the used market they're like 350-400

hello i was wondering if any of you guys could help me pick parts for a decent gaming PC for around 800-850$, im new when it comes to PC parts thanks in advance

fluid raven Nov 25, 2019, 3:59 AM

@golden forge check chipsets. I believe i9s require the z390 "3000 series" motherboards

Oh also don't get a 9900k you dingus

GIGALUL

golden forge Nov 25, 2019, 4:16 AM

I was only going to get the 9900k if I didn't need a new mobo. I would have saved a couple hundred dollars

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 4:55 AM

i woulnt recommend using an i9 9900k in a H310, but, B360, B365, H370, Z370 are all compatible with the 9th gen CPU's, including the i9 9900k, as long as you have the latest BIOS from the manufacture and it has 9th gen support. @golden forge

#

im currently running an i7 9700 in a Z370 motherboard in one of my systems

#

just needs the BIOS update for 9th gen CPU support

#

@glossy pebble I would start with something along the lines of this:

why are you going for 850w here?

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 6:10 AM

#

probably bought used

#

considering that price

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

Just a really good sale I saw an ad for

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

partpicker shows it for 75$ on newegg 5d ago

#

probably answered my own question here

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

for the 850W?

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

Ya

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

thats pretty good

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

oh no, I'm looking at 650

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

Ya, I’m very surprised

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

cases are highly subjective. the 011 dynamic is not very good for an airflow case, but it excels when running a custom loop. im not familiar with the Lancool II

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

yeah 850 for 70 bucks is kinda wow

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

The lancool II comes out December 10th, check out some reviews it’s pretty spectacular

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

maybe I'll buy myself one of those rm650x for 75$ on friday

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

I was unaware of airflow but I will be watercooling soon enough

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

if there will be nothing good for 650i

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 6:14 AM

#

Ya I’ve kinda plotted everything out but I’ll probably have to redo it all cus new deals pop up

#

I’m probably gonna spend the entirety of Thursday and Friday sitting with my face in my laptop frantically typing and trying to find better and better deals but it’s gonna get done some way or another

#

Oh the other thing I’m absolutely psyched for is it occurred to me that my desk is gonna need some revamping for this and when I plotted everything out I realized I may as well just make the whole wall a big desk space and it’s gonna curve onto the other walls and I’m gonna put my pc and 2 monitors on it, a writing space, a project space, and the same for my brother and god DAMN is it gonna be nice

#

I’ve never had a set up even remotely close to this and I’m stoked

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 6:19 AM

#

I kinda standing at this build as of now: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wB968M Want to build it around corsair icue and rgb so have to go asus other msi (because icue seems to conflict with any other rgb soft except asus aura). Might also throw in another ssd and 16gb ram more depending on final price on friday.

#

not sure if I need to pull the trigger on case now since newegg says sale on it ends in 2d

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 7:39 AM

#

I’m gonna sound like a big nay sayer for this one but I have a couple objections. First I’d say don’t get the 9700k, you can get 8 faster cores for less, 3700x for example. Also as attractive as it is AIO cooling is usually pretty much the same as air cooling but more expensive, a good Noctua or a scythe mugen 5 will perform the same or better for way less. And if ur gonna overclock u should get more than 650 in my opinion, not necessary but I mean ur spending $140 on the PSU anyway so u may as well get that 850 for $70 or something, I believe I saw a 750 for like $55, it’s gonna be on the Newegg Black Friday or cyber Monday sale I forget which, basically I think u can do better for the PSU

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 7:57 AM

#

first i'd disagree that the 3700x isnt a faster CPU than the 9700k, as the 9700k is ~15% faster than the 3700x, so im not sure where you're getting that from.

asetek 280mm AIO coolers are all about the same in terms of performance, and they are pretty decent for cooling, depending on the fans being used. clearly this one has been picked out to fit with a RGB theme. not saying the H115i is the best, but, its more than fine to run a 9700k, even with a bit of overclocking. if he wants to pay the extra $40-$60 to have the asthetics of a RGB AIO liquid cooler, that seems fair to me.

and I agree with you somewhat on the PSU, the RMi is meh, and there are better units for WAY cheaper. @severe oxide @rotund radish

#

but the wattage amount is more than fine

#

15% faster CPU for $13 more seems like a no brainer to me

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 7:58 AM

#

I am intel fanboy thus 9700k. Aio for looks

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 7:59 AM

#

3700x has its usecases, but its definitely not gaming, lol. horrible value for a gaming CPU

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 8:00 AM

#

Not looking to overclock much and I think 200w extra should be fine. Might go 750 tho. Also yes, amd for adult people, intel for pew pew boyz

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

if you're not overclocking, you dont need such an expensive board. even if the asus ROG was actually good, lol

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

Does newegg had black friday/monday ads up? Because all I saw was presale which is kinda meh

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 8:01 AM

#

the strix 2080 super is over priced

#

and whats got your eye on the 500D RGB case?

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 8:03 AM

#

I’m running asus for hooking up aura to icue since it seems no other brand can do. I’m waiting for sales to hit and look if its gonna be less overpriced. 500d just looks nice to me

#

Rmi also there to track price, will probably go rmx if it doesn’t drop

austere condor Nov 25, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

shaved off over $200 on the price, for objectively better hardware. especially for the price

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/q8Lvf9

#

but still sticking to the RGB focused looks you're wanting

#

ended up going with the Whisper M 850W just because it was a good deal, lol. the EVGA G3 650W was only like $4 cheaper

#

but yeah, thats what I would recommend going with

#

better for your wallet, same performance, same looks

rotund radish Nov 25, 2019, 8:15 AM

#

Why not gaming x trio? Same price, should be more quiet than 2 fans. Also mobo and card gonna be out of sync with fans and i will have to throw in commander pro in. Nonetheless seems nice and will consider

#

500d is essentially 570x with commander pro glued inside and slightly more space

God how am I not tired I was up at 3:00 am watching YouTube videos and talking in discord

#

Wait what? The 9700k is faster than the 3700x? Damn I must’ve missed a memo

#

Wait

#

No I’m looking at benchmarks and I’m quite certain the 3700x is faster

severe oxide Nov 25, 2019, 2:34 PM

#

Which would make sense, same core count but 3700x has twice the threads and higher single core speed, the thing that holds back Ryzen most in gaming (as I understand it) is that the infinity fabric doesn’t utilize 8 cores together as well as ring bus, which might be mitigated by zen 3, I’m gonna go learn more about the ring bus and stuff but I believe that’s the main reason Zen’s faster processors don’t game the way they “should”

latent bronze Nov 25, 2019, 6:41 PM

If there was a system with like a 4790K in it for like 300$ i would say it is worth it

#

Or like this here in Canada for used PC stores selling systems like this is worth it https://i.gyazo.com/f9452885a700e678ed6d48cefabbd529.png

If he was able to find a system similar to that with a lower price it would be worth buying and slapping in a SSD more memory and a GPU

#

if you really need to plug in more fans you need to buy a fan splitter cable

#

something like this, doesn't have to be this brand https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16812162059

latent bronze Nov 25, 2019, 11:16 PM

If you want to use fan headers on your board to power them up you will need a splitter

So I guess I'll just buy a splitter then !

You could always power the fans as well using the power supply which will give the RGB effects just you wont be able to change the colors

@little osprey did you go for a cheap board?

I kinda bought a prebuilt computer uhh about 2 years ago and now I'm updating it

coarse coral Nov 25, 2019, 11:22 PM

thats an ARGB plug, your motherboard doesn't have a port for that so you can't use argb

coarse coral Nov 25, 2019, 11:31 PM

alright

so the motherboard you want to get is prob the z370 since that will support that argb plug and prob has more case fan headers for your case

#

now you need a brand

#

there asus and stuff

unfortunately i cant find any asus boards that are z370 with argb just rgb.

cpu, motherboard with argb ports, new memory since the one that came with your computer is slow.

and then you use corsair icue to control the rgb

you dont need the ARGB header for corsair fans

well, these ones, im not sure for all

I personally am not a fan of msi laptops

sick bane Nov 27, 2019, 3:41 PM

I currently have one but also got recommended this one https://www.newegg.com/obsidian-black-acer-aspire-7-a717-72g-700j-gaming-entertainment/p/N82E16834316435?Item=N82E16834316435

#

But i thought the first one was a good deal with $250 worth of free gear

little osprey Nov 27, 2019, 3:42 PM

#

1660 ti vs 1060

#

Ya. No

sick bane Nov 27, 2019, 3:42 PM

which is better

little osprey Nov 27, 2019, 3:42 PM

#

1660

#

Second one is overpriced

sick bane Nov 27, 2019, 3:44 PM

#

You think the MSI one would be fine running games like GTA V

#

based on the specs

round flare Nov 27, 2019, 3:47 PM

#

1660ti will suffice

little osprey Nov 27, 2019, 3:48 PM

I ran fortnite on a 1050 on medium settings

And got like 80-90 fps

what do u guys think about this for some upgrade from my 570 and paring it with a 3600

You know you can flash the 5700 non XT to be in about the same performance as a 5700 XT

#

and spend less

frigid root Nov 27, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

.... the sapphire is for a part of the aesthetics of my build and could I oc it to be around a 2080ti at stock?

round flare Nov 27, 2019, 5:16 PM

wouldn't it run hotter if you flash it though

#

(keep in mind I know nothing about stuff like that pls)

latent bronze Nov 27, 2019, 5:21 PM

#

If using one that has a dual or triple fan not really but if it is a blower then that side panel is always off

#

@frigid root You have to remember that some games the 5700 XT can be on the same performance as a 2070 Super/2080 but a lot of other games can be at the same performance as a 2060/2060 Super

frigid root Nov 27, 2019, 5:27 PM

that's what I'm getting

deep skiff Nov 27, 2019, 7:26 PM

That’s overpriced tho

#

It should be 440, and was 420 on sale

latent bronze Nov 27, 2019, 7:28 PM

Nachos it is amazon it does tend to get over priced on there

pulsar garnet Nov 27, 2019, 7:53 PM

#

@frigid root 5700 XT is roughly the same as a 2070S. I have that exact same card and it's really good. I get ~100FPS at 1440p max settings on about everything I play.

#

Also don't flash a 5700. It voids the warranty and that's not good.

building my son an entry level gaming pc and was looking at an RX 580 GPU and a Ryzen 7 2700 using a b450 tomahawk max mobo. Any issues there?

it supports 3200 speeds from that kit, but the compatibility list doesnt have it listed for 100% compatibility, it should still work tho

the kit isn't specifically made for amd cpus

You have a recommendation around the same price range? The mobo is $115

@round flare What kind of OCin have you done to your system?

#

Also what settings in destiny and in Radeon

#

maybe we should take this covo to a diff thread

#

pc gaming maybe

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:08 AM

#

@round flare You forgot to ask him what res and settings

#

because it would be pretty much impossible to get over 60 fps with a R3 1200 maxed out at 1080p

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:10 AM

#

see where we continued it\

#

in PC gaming

#

yeah no not maxed

#

but tbh 1080p has a limit to the detail it displays

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:11 AM

#

Reason why it would be impossible is cause the recommended is a 1600

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:11 AM

#

there are only so many pixels

#

If I had a nicer screen

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:12 AM

#

The thing is Destiny 2 favors Intel and Nvidia a lot more

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

really?

#

hmm

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:13 AM

#

Recommended for AMD is a R5 1600 and for Intel is a i5 2400

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:14 AM

#

I was getting over 100fps in a lost sector once, but I was the only player character in that instance

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:14 AM

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:15 AM

If i was using something like a i7 8700 pretty sure i could get over 200

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:15 AM

#

in PC gaming thread?

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:16 AM

#

@maiden iron If you want something better than the 1200 i would go for the 2600

keen wagon Nov 28, 2019, 2:16 AM

#

2600 is amazing

#

Easily overclocked too if you want

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:16 AM

#

I know it is what i am using

keen wagon Nov 28, 2019, 2:16 AM

#

I upgraded from an FX-8350, such a massive difference

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

The only way i would suggest the 2600X is if said person doesn't overclock

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:17 AM

#

ahhh

#

yeah 2600

#

I said I was thinking about getting one earlier in this thread

#

My mobo has a bios update for it so

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:20 AM

#

What is your board as in is it a A320, B350 or B450

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:20 AM

#

B450

keen wagon Nov 28, 2019, 2:21 AM

#

They're pretty good boards imo

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:21 AM

#

bios update would be more for 3000 series then

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:21 AM

#

Ahhh gotcha

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:22 AM

#

But still about 100$ for that CPU you should grab it while you can

#

20$ more than the 1600 and performs like the 1700/1700X

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:23 AM

#

Yeah If I can't find a barely used one I'll just order one off new probs

#

So I have spare Pcie slot

#

any ideas for something to put there?

#

1x slot

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:33 AM

#

@maiden iron if i was to build a system mainly based on playing Destiny and maybe other games like Overwatch/Overwatch 2 i would build this for myself https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CKYmrV

#

Also look at the performance difference https://i.gyazo.com/ff5914f589caa042a59855246c639927.png

#

Also the only reason why in that build there is no case is because id actually make my own

Idk intell....

#

I am a multitasker

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:36 AM

fair

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 2:37 AM

and i said for myself cause if i built my own case it would be big enough to fit on my desk but small enough to not be noticed

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 2:38 AM

right

#

Tbh I've been thinking about emptying out a cabinet below my monitor and cutting two holes for Dryer tubing to run outside

#

At least durning the winter

#

that lil cab would totally keep my tems under control

#

during the summer I'd just vent the hot air outside

I live in The basement rn XD

it's funny cause my dad lives here too

but it's my grandma's house

lol he just moved upstairs when she left

And I moved in

No rent?

#

All I have to do is put up with my dad?

#

ok then

He pretty much ignores me

#

It's great

#

I have friends over sometimes too

#

What do you think to use for filtering for that cool air supply?

I could cut up a hepa filter

Most of the ones I found so far have lower read writes than the 500s

latent bronze Nov 28, 2019, 4:52 AM

the one's i mentioned before should have 250/256 versions

also less storage means less speeds

then clear the cMOS and try again

if still no boot

real spindle Nov 28, 2019, 6:03 AM

Cmos?

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 6:03 AM

maybe find other hardware to boot

and update bios

#

yeah

#

the lille circular battery on the mobo

take that out and wait a few min

#

or if you can find two contacvts on the mobo lbaled cmos clear

power off and short those

Okay which thing should I touch with metal

maiden iron Nov 28, 2019, 6:07 AM

if your case has a restart button as well you could repurpous that for a moment

try it again

honestly start with the basics and work from there. CPU, cooler, power, ram

AMD vs Intel: Which CPU Cooks Better Pancakes?

We took some of Intel and AMD’s most powerful HEDT processors and turned them into stovetops to make some truly regrettable pancakes.

Hey guys, was wondering what is better 128GB (8x16GB) Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX Black, PC4-32000 (4000), Non-ECC Unbuff, CAS 19-23-23-45,
Or 64GB (8x8GB) Corsair DDR4 Vengeance LPX Black, PC4-33000 (4133), Non-ECC Unbuffered, CAS 19-25-25-45, what is the best ram here for latency if someone can help this will be mainly for gaming?

coarse coral Nov 28, 2019, 2:52 PM

#

pretty sure you wont see much of a 2-9 fps difference after 3200c14 @olive harbor

#

either one is fine

#

just pick one that your motherboard will support

#

because those are pretty niche ram speeds and timings

deep skiff Nov 28, 2019, 3:05 PM

#

but why would you need 128gb of high speed ram?

#

it really won’t see much performance, and for gaming you only really need 16gb

Hello guys I am looking for my new PC build - not for gaming.
I wonder to buy those components:
*Ryzen 9 3900x,
*ASUS AMD AM4 ROG Strix X570-F or ASUS TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WiFi is not necessary and I won't waste extra $100 for WiFi),
*CHEAP GRAPHICS CARD, LESS THAN $400,
*CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX 64 GB 3600 (2 X 32GB) OR G.SKILL RIPJAWS V SERIES 64 GB 3200 OR 3600 (4 X 16 GB)
*BE QUIET! PURE POWER 11 700W 80 PLUS
