[vestal cove]

Yah

Always try to use 2

Or if you are like getting 32gb get 8x4

[dry tinsel]

i have purchased my build, or the parts i need right now anyway

[formal plover]

Ok

Well, 2x4 costs $40, and 1x8 costs $28

Would it really be worth getting 2?

[sacred obsidian]

im using 1x8 but i plan on buying another stick in a couple months to offset that. it will run fine with one but i guess its better to do 2

[formal plover]

Do you know why 2 is better?

[round flare]

dual channel

idk what it does but it's more efficient or smth

google it

[formal plover]

Ok

Well, 2x4 costs 40 and 1x8 costs 28

[sour temple]

i wish there was more full atx cases

[formal plover]

And all I need is 8gb

[vestal cove]

Well you can get 1x8

It won’t perform as good

[formal plover]

What does CAS Latency mean?

[round flare]

less latency is better

[formal plover]

Ok

[round flare]

cl16 should be good enough for most

[formal plover]

Which speed is best?

[sour temple]

cl16 what thou?

cl16 3600?

[vestal cove]

3200mhz is good

[sour temple]

cl16 3200 is not the best

i am get cl16 3600 😮

[round flare]

well he's not trying to spend a lot

[sour temple]

define a lot

[formal plover]

The speed isn't in MHz :/

[round flare]

his budget is like 300

[sour temple]

wow 😮

might look into a used

tbh

[formal plover]

Maybe

[sour temple]

300 for a upgrade or new pc

[tranquil dust]

Rate this build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/VFq4gJ
@muted patio

[formal plover]

I'm looking at this cpu AMD Athlon X4 950 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor

[sour temple]

change to amd

and your good

[tranquil dust]

Nah I don’t like amd

Intel seems like the better option here

[formal plover]

Really?

[tranquil dust]

Yea

[sour temple]

its not but oh well

[formal plover]

Intel is kinda pricy

It's like apple

[tranquil dust]

Everybody s##ts on intel but I like their chips

[sacred obsidian]

right now amd is beating out intel in most regaurds i believe

[sour temple]

i mean i can't talk about pcs cost

[round flare]

the ventus cards from msi

[sour temple]

when you can build a few off mine cost

[round flare]

aren't very good

[sour temple]

xD

[round flare]

and the 1660 isn't worth

for a little more the 1660s is much better

[sour temple]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gWBK7T

[formal plover]

What do you think of this processor? AMD Athlon X4 950 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor

It's $65

It has integrated graphics

[round flare]

the 3000g isn't a bad choice

what games are you gonna be playimg

[sacred obsidian]

christine is that a dream build or something you actually have or are actually building

[round flare]

that's too much storage

what sane person can fill that lll

lol

[sacred obsidian]

no such thing

[round flare]

can the mobo even take all of those lol

[sacred obsidian]

should be

yeah it can

[round flare]

sounds like a pain to set up tho

[sacred obsidian]

nah

[round flare]

all those sata cables

rather have to massive nvmes

and a couple hard drives

[sacred obsidian]

i have 4 in my pc and it was 5 but one was for a cd drive which i cant use on my new case 😢

[sour temple]

its something i am actully going to have

and i need my 30tb of storage

😮

the hdds for for video storage

Form my channel

[formal plover]

Yt channel?

[sour temple]

yes

[formal plover]

What's it called

[sour temple]

i have not unloaded in a year .....

[formal plover]

Oh

[sour temple]

i need a new pc

[sacred obsidian]

im jelly

[sour temple]

of what?

[sacred obsidian]

the pc but mostly the amount of storage lol

my desktop has 4.5 tb and i thought id never fill it but boy was i wrong.

[sour temple]

i mean 6 tbs for games and my programs does not hurt 😛

mnve is a boot drive

[formal plover]

Do you think just putting an AMD Athlon X4 950 3.5 GHz Quad-Core Processor in my h420 would help it?

[sacred obsidian]

i wanna buy more space but i cant afford it atm lol

[formal plover]

Just get this

Hitachi Ultrastar 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

[sacred obsidian]

what is the h420

50 dollars for a 2tb hdd is more than i have in my bank right now

[formal plover]

A 2011 Lenovo computer with 6gigs of ram 1tb of storage and an Intel Pentium 2.6ghz

[sour temple]

i need another storage thing

[formal plover]

Get this one Hitachi Ultrastar 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

[sour temple]

idk where to put it thou

i need something with a high write limmit

[formal plover]

Hmm

[sour temple]

for a edditing sdd

i don't need it

but i want one

[formal plover]

Do you reccomend a mid tower?

[sour temple]

yeah

[formal plover]

Ok

Any recommended cheap cases?

[sour temple]

define cheap

[formal plover]

Sub $40

[sour temple]

not easy to fine one

[formal plover]

Ok

[cursive wharf]

Excellent

[austere condor]

Deepcool Matrexx 30

RIOTORI CR488

DIYPC F2

Cooler Master Q300L

Cougar MX330

@formal plover

[latent bronze]

Id go with the Q300L

[austere condor]

MX330 is nice

and I do like the Q300L

[latent bronze]

Not a fan of Deepcool cases

just because the front ports are usually on the front panel

[austere condor]

they look nice if you know what to do with them

Matrexx 30

matrexx 55

[latent bronze]

Had the 55 before was a pain to clean the front panel without disconnecting the front port wires

Also a bigger pain to remove the front panel

[eager chasm]

An Intel stock cooler... With a glowing fan... Looks like a ricer XD

[gentle bay]

Is it worth paying 44 dollars for a warranty on a mobo?

[eager chasm]

They come with a warranty

[gentle bay]

wait what

[eager chasm]

Unless you are buying used

[gentle bay]

New from amazon?

[eager chasm]

Yes, that is just buying extra warranty

[gentle bay]

Ohh

How would i redeem the waranty for my mobo

Its from msi

[eager chasm]

You contact MSI and RMA it

[gentle bay]

RMA?

[eager chasm]

I got my monitor off Amazon, but when the backlight failed I contacted Sceptre to RMA it

[gentle bay]

oh

Hmm

Would the same thing work for a MSI Grpahic Card?

[eager chasm]

RMA is for sending a defective product to the manufacturer and getting a replacement under warranty

[gentle bay]

oh snap

Where can i check the seller warranty

Like the product itself didnt list a specofic time period

[latent bronze]

Or they would try to repair said broken part for you

If they're able to

[gentle bay]

oh?

i see

So it would apply to both the mobo and the gpu?

[upper condor]

What will pcie 4 be able to do?

[eager chasm]

The only time you return it to the seller is if it arrives defective

[gentle bay]

Via testing it or just like doa

Like just seeing the package as damaged?

[latent bronze]

Or you have an extended warranty

You would have to pay the seller of course for the extended warranty

[gentle bay]

Which im not sure if i want to spend another 44

yeah

jmm

hmm

[latent bronze]

Well paying the extra money could also make sure you get things sent back a lot quicker

and most likely they would just a new one instead of trying to repair it

[gentle bay]

true hmm

shiiet idk

[latent bronze]

I pay for the 1 year warranty from Newegg so

cause to me if something doesn't happen after a year then i would be good

besides that i am going to be replacing my motherboard soon so um ya

[upper condor]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/pYYkDx

Whats wrong eith this

There always is something so please tell me

I know i wont have PCiE 4 but i dont care

[latent bronze]

If you like RGB how come you don't have RGB memory 🤔

[upper condor]

Because

Its not on sale anymore

😪

[latent bronze]

This is a lot more and the timings are better https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VG97YJ/corsair-vengeance-rgb-pro-16-gb-2-x-8-gb-ddr4-3600-memory-cmw16gx4m2k3600c16

[upper condor]

Thats 200 dollars it says

For 16gb?

[latent bronze]

Well it is RGB and has better timings from what i can see

@eager chasm wanna confirm if the timings are better

[upper condor]

You could get 32gb of the same for cheaper

Could a 2060 super handle 1440p?

[latent bronze]

yes

my 1660 can handle 1440p lol

[eager chasm]

It's slightly better timings

[upper condor]

Oh ha

[eager chasm]

Won't make much of a difference

[upper condor]

One sec im changing it to be dif

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/K77Qyk

Now i have all the rgb i want

[latent bronze]

@upper condor i got something for you then

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/fyx2FT/team-t-force-night-hawk-rgb-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr4-3600-memory-tf2d416g3600hc18edc01

5$ less and the timings are a little better 😛

[upper condor]

Do you mean the speed?

[latent bronze]

i mean the timing cause the speeds are both the same being at 3600MHz

[upper condor]

So what does the timing mean

[latent bronze]

meaning the one's you picked is 18-22-22-42 and the ones i am showing is 18-20-20-44

[upper condor]

Oh ok

But mine is corsair

And im using all corsair rgb stuff

So it syncs

[latent bronze]

just with the name

[upper condor]

Ok lemme fix

There

Thats my bad

[latent bronze]

Well saving a little money here and there can be a bit better to be honest

[upper condor]

Imagine if there was gucci ram

Or just gucci parts

[latent bronze]

it wouldn't sell then

would be too over priced

[upper condor]

Tryw

And rich people dont usually make computera

Their too cool

[latent bronze]

No they usually would try to sell knock off stuff from China lol

[upper condor]

Yeah

Aliexpress do be having good deals tho

[latent bronze]

I tried to help Zack for his friends PC but he doesn't want to buy a Ryzen 5 1400 for 50$ would rather get a 2200G for like 80$ for his friend

[upper condor]

OoF

Yeah

Im just worried the 3000 series is gonna come out

And be the same price or lower than the 2000s, and be a lot better

[sterile wave]

The 3000's are out tho

[upper condor]

The GPU

Not the cpu

[sterile wave]

Oh I c

[upper condor]

Yh

[eager chasm]

The 3000 series might not be for a while 🤔

[latent bronze]

Shh don't ruin his dreams

[sand sail]

Excuse me while I throw up

[upper condor]

Bro they said it would be out mid 2020 probably

[foggy hazel]

no, they didnt.

rumours claimed XYZ

if you want to base your happiness on rumours, by all means, go ahead. :)

[upper condor]

Shush

I didnt mean nvidia, i mean professional guessers

[foggy hazel]

and the difference between them and a broken clock is what exactly?

[upper condor]

Uhhhhhhh

They can scam people

[foggy hazel]

yes

you got it in one

now please remember that :)

there is no need to listen to hype.

there is no need to listen to wishful rumours that are pulled from fever dreams

we are in "silly season" territory right now

because CES is close

[upper condor]

Exactly

So they will maybe announce it?

[foggy hazel]

time will tell

iirc, AMD has their press conference monday (6th)

i cant remember when/if Nvidia is planned to speak there

[sour temple]

@sand sail nice cable magament

so i am wondering if i should change to 10 TB harddrives to sava a sata port

[upper condor]

@sour temple you still have money to eat tho right?

[sour temple]

i have not bought anything

just making a list of parts

[upper condor]

But when you do buy youll be able to get food right?

[sour temple]

yes

[upper condor]

Good

[sour temple]

when you have to get a full atx case

bescuase you have that many drives

[upper condor]

Rip

[sour temple]

3 hdds and 3 sdds

[feral thistle]

I've got a 10TB and I still have 6TB left o.o

[sour temple]

i wonder if i should just get another 500 gb nvme drive for a scratch disk

video cold storage

[feral thistle]

Think I'm going to swap my SSD for an NVME, though

[sour temple]

my ram keeps getting out of stock thou

T-T

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/GnJJwh i think this is going to be my final list

[muted patio]

Uh

[sour temple]

out of every storage slot in the mobo xD

[muted patio]

Might wanna check the storage scenario

Most motherboards, the 2ND NVME takes up SATA ports

[sudden turret]

yep.

[sour temple]

does not pull up a issue on the list

[sudden turret]

will take at least 2 satas.

[muted patio]

It won't

[sudden turret]

well pcpartpicker isn't 100% accurate

[muted patio]

Gotta check that manually

[sour temple]

where do i check that

[muted patio]

I'm checking now 🙂

[sour temple]

once this thing is build

not going need to up grape for a LONG time 😛

[strange garden]

Anyone have any experience with the arctic accelero aftermarket coolers? I’m thinking of sticking one on the stock blower 2080 I got in my HP Omen Obelisk but don’t know if there’s quite enough clearance.

[muted patio]

Interestingly enough, the manual doesn't mention the second M.2 using SATA ports

This one may not

[strange garden]

Or if anyone else has alternative cooling solutions. For that card/case

[sour temple]

i mean its a high end auros

so it would suck if it did not

[muted patio]

No port sharing on it confirmed

[sour temple]

not really want to spend 500+ for a mobo

[muted patio]

good to go

[sudden turret]

best to contact Aorus and ask them

or maybe @warm nova can shed some light

[sour temple]

there is no such comany as aorus

[latent bronze]

@little osprey the memory in his photo looks to be from Team Group

[sour temple]

its a gigbite board

[muted patio]

It's confirmed by many reviewers that they don't share lanes

[sudden turret]

I know what it is lol..

and they do have a discord.

[muted patio]

It does, however, share bandwidth on the PCI-E 4.0 bus

so they may not go full speed with two installed

[sour temple]

meh

[little osprey]

@latent bronze ok, do we're know if NE has our?

[sour temple]

can be worse

[little osprey]

Stupid autocorrect

[sour temple]

i mean its just boot drives and scratch disk

[muted patio]

Huh

looks lilke my TUF Gaming WiFi doesn't disable sata ports either with NVME drives

[sour temple]

tuf does not mean its bad

[latent bronze]

what @little osprey

[muted patio]

Oh no, it's a good board

[sour temple]

there are a lot of stuff asus does at the low end and not the high end

[muted patio]

Indeed

[loud prism]

New build with Gigabyte Z390M Gaming mobo, Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro RAM. I just installed iCUE software. iCUE is recognizing the RAM, pulls in all spec, temp, etc info, but RAM not responding to any lighting control.

Uninstalled Gigabyte Ambient LED software. No dice 😦 Any ideas?

[little osprey]

@latent bronze the ram, do we know if newegg has them?

[latent bronze]

they do

[little osprey]

Ok I will look

[sudden turret]

@loud prism did you reboot

[loud prism]

I did

[loud prism]

Lighting Effects tab. Select a DIMM... static color.

[sour temple]

The only thing i dislike

about the aorus board

is the back lit ram slots

just WHYYY

[sudden turret]

can always disabled mobo lights

[sour temple]

i porb will use them

but just why

[sudden turret]

because why not.

[sour temple]

heat

[sudden turret]

doubt.

[sour temple]

it will make that area hotter

[coarse coral]

what

[sour temple]

might not be by a lot

but it will

[sudden turret]

put your finger over any led, it's not hot.

[sour temple]

there is a dead ssd because rbg

[muted patio]

There was an issue with RGB SSD's that caused excessive heat but it's not an issue on the motherboard. The Ground plane heat dissipation will do its job

[coarse coral]

the hyperx ssd?

[muted patio]

The SSD thing was a unique case

[sour temple]

y think?

[coarse coral]

[sour temple]

i just don't see a point in rbg being there

since well ram sticks will be there

[sudden turret]

cause people like it, people use it.

[coarse coral]

sometimes you wanna flex

[sour temple]

if your going to flex

you fill every ram slot

you fill every ram slot

[coarse coral]

[sour temple]

ingore the 64gb of ram in my build

[little osprey]

@latent bronze thanks

[sour temple]

i would like a back lit rbg board

so the outter edge

then the rbg backlit board

[loud prism]

@imabox no response in color from RAM. No light at all.

[sudden turret]

@loud prism check DM

@loud prism check DM

[foggy hazel]

@sour temple 6 drives fit in a lot of itx and m-atx cases. no need to go atx case for that small amount of drives

[sour temple]

its not a itx cases

its a full ATX case

[foggy hazel]

read again please :)

[sour temple]

the 719

yes you don't

a normal person does not need a 719

most people don't need a dual mobo case

then again people people don't need 6TB of sdds

put everything i use will be on the sdds

xD

@foggy hazel then again no one who needs my build unless you make money off it

[sacred obsidian]

Wait I want a dual mobo case

Where does the second mobo go

[sour temple]

for the 719

the bottom

and has to be a itx mobo

[sacred obsidian]

Oh lame. Would be cool to put 2 pcs in the same case tho lol

[foggy hazel]

they are "in" the same case.

[sour temple]

@sacred obsidian

[sacred obsidian]

Yeah but I don’t have an itx board but I got 2 spare m-atx lol

[sudden turret]

TT core v21 x2

[foggy hazel]

one of the old UFO cases support that

iirc

[sudden turret]

they bolt together

[sour temple]

your not really going to find a case for dual atx mobos

[sudden turret]

then boom, double pc build

[sour temple]

it aslo will not be small

in way way

and the fact you need a psu with two 24 pins

[sacred obsidian]

Just have 2 psus

Double everything but it one case that’s bigger than 2 cases cause you can lol

[sour temple]

unless you want to spend 1000+ on a case

[sacred obsidian]

How bout 20$ worth of wood and screws and I make one

I’m not gunna do that tho lol

I couldn’t make anything as pretty as my case

[sour temple]

why do you need two mobos?

like i want to turn one into nas

the itx later

[sacred obsidian]

I just like to build PCs man

I reuse old parts to make PCs for fun

[sour temple]

omg that discord is dumb

[upper condor]

Why

[sour temple]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HvgvRk

was said as a good replament for my list

[warm nova]

@loud prism ensure that rgb fusion is uninstalled as well. Fusion will interfere with ambient led and your board is not supported by fusion.

[sour temple]

not sure how i will use it

since it does not have mointors or keyboard

[warm nova]

sorry it took so long for me to respond to the ping, I was working on staining some wood for a desk I am building

Also if fusion is installed still it will interfere with icue. after everything is uninstalled you have to restart the computer after uninstalling.

As for icue, check to make sure you have the most recent version of icue downloaded. currently its 3.23.66 then once in icue click on settings as the top and select the ram. Also on the settings page you will see a button in the box at the top where it says device settings for the firmware update. Click on the update button and it will check the version of your firmware on your ram and update if it needs to. if it say you have a current version you can force the update and see if that fixes the problem. Recent versions of icue have had some issues with no letting people change the colors of the ram, but for some reason forcing the firmware update fixes it sometimes. But before messing with icue make sure fusion is uninstalled and that you have restarted your computer to rule that out as the cause.

[sudden turret]

what no not that convo

lol

I got the icue thing worked out, I pinged you about the aorus board using every sata and nvme port.

[warm nova]

huh

I can scroll back.

[sour temple]

@sudden turret they said teh FTW3 was worse then a strix 2080ti

[warm nova]

ok, I see the question from christine about the sata ports and m.2

[sudden turret]

yeah, that.

bekora looked it up, but didn't say anything about it

[warm nova]

on the aorus elite none of the ports get disabled

[sudden turret]

oh nice.

[sour temple]

whats your question then?

[warm nova]

the chipset has enough lanes to do everything

[sudden turret]

@muted patio write that down for future Reference 😛

what are you talking about Christine? lolol.

[warm nova]

it only becomes an issue on x570 boards when you have more than 2 m.2 slots

[sudden turret]

so using both m.2 and sata ports nothing gets disabled?

[sour temple]

intender

[warm nova]

yup

[sour temple]

you had the question

[warm nova]

I dont know about that asus board, but its in a whole different class of board than the aorus elite

No, box has pinged me earlier today about your question about the aorus elite wifi

[sour temple]

oh

i might change out the 2td drives sdd for a single 4 td ssd

[warm nova]

I scrolled through real quick on my phone but my hands were covered in stain from building a desk so I got confused about which question he pinged me on

but the elite only has the 2 m.2 slots one is through the cpu, other through the chipset, 2 x16 slots both of which are through the cpu (either x16x0 or x8x8) and the 2 x1 slots which are through the chipset. the chipset has plenty of lanes for all that.

[sour temple]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nC6Cwh

[warm nova]

so you dont lose any slots or sata ports if everything is occupied

[sour temple]

btw one of them said to get a quadro

.....

[foggy hazel]

@warm nova https://images.anandtech.com/doci/14588/David_McAfee-Next_Horizon_Gaming-3rd_Gen_Ryzen_06092019-page-030 - Copy.jpg <- practical for explaining it for people.

thats the x570 diagram

(in the "understandable for consumers" variant)

[warm nova]

and one note on the aorus monitors. They are amazing, and I wish I could afford one. but you will not be able to run it at 144hz with hdr and 10bit at the same time. It went into production before dp 1.4 was really on the market and display port 1.2 cant handle that much bandwidth. you can do 8bit hdr at 144hz. 10bit sdr at 144hz, or I think 10bit hdr at 120hz. Not 100% sure on that last one. The new revision of that monitor the FI27Q-P is updated to display port 1.4 and cand do all of those in addition to being 165hz.

@sour temple

[sour temple]

that was just words to me

use english

[polar holly]

which quadro were they reccomending

[sour temple]

6000 or 7000 i think

[polar holly]

and is this a full work no play or do you want to game also

[sour temple]

yeah this is going to be my workstation / gaming rig

do not go to kristofer yee discord for adsive they just meme

[polar holly]

Then go with the 2080ti it will be strong enough for both uses. if it werent to be gaming yes a quadro would be slightly better

[sour temple]

not worth the cost for a small content creator

i mean i want a 2080 ti because its good 😮

[polar holly]

It mainly just depends on use the quadro will outperform a 2080ti in professional workloads

and a 2080ti is a more rounded card for gaming and creation

[sour temple]

yes but i am not going to be doing 8k video

more like 1440 and 60 fps

2k is pushing it since most people don't have monitors that can support it

[polar holly]

then you will be fine with that card. you can also look into a titan rtx if you can find one. in my job we edit and shoot in 8k for ease of dedit and more work

[sour temple]

i mean i would be happy with the 2080 ti not really need a titan rtx

i mean i will not be another ltt

[next merlin]

So I have a Samsung 970 EVO M.2, a Samsung 870 SSD, and an Intel 660 M.2. All of them are 500gb. My motherboard only has 1 m.2 slot but I have a laptop that has an m.2 slot. Should I return the SSD and keep both m.2 or should I return one of the m.2s and use both storage devices on my desktop

[sour temple]

i do content on modded minecraft for now and any games i want to play and want to record

there is something funny thou

people think you have to have a meshy c

@polar holly

[polar holly]

if your gaming content than yeah the 2080ti

[sour temple]

and i want to stream

i want to do a vlog of my progess of being trans but i feel like it would be had idea

[foggy hazel]

@next merlin check that your laptop has a m.2 2280 slot and not a different type

[next merlin]

I'll just return the one of the m.2s and replace the hdd on my laptop with the ssd

[foggy hazel]

make certain that your laptop can actually fit the SSD you have (thickness of drive matters for this)

[sour temple]

yes i am trans... 😄

mtf

i wish i could work 😦

to bad no one wants to work with someone with a lot of mental issues

[sudden turret]

walmart hires anyone

[sour temple]

i can't work at wallmart

they will never hir me again

[upper condor]

Did you work for them

[sour temple]

yes

[upper condor]

Whyd you stop

[sour temple]

someone on there 1st day claimed racism against me while i was training

[sudden turret]

before this gets to deep. this is #building-and-recc-chat

[upper condor]

Oh trye

My b

[muted dawn]

just wondering what fps would i get at 1440p with a ryzen 5 2600 and gtx1660 super?

[upper condor]

Lemme chexk

What quality settinfs?

At ultra quality 50-70 fps

Cant guarantee that

[polar holly]

WHAT GAME

[upper condor]

Idk

What you wanna play

[muted dawn]

lets say i wanna play fortnite or r6s

what fps would i get a medium settings?

[upper condor]

Ok lemme check again

Probably between 60 and 110

[muted dawn]

not bad

for both games?

[upper condor]

Fortnite

Rainbow probably a bit lower because its more demanding

[polar holly]

Rainbow will be 60-70 generally

[muted dawn]

hmm ok

[rapid compass]

@sudden turret im not a genius lol i just watched DIY stuff n custom pc builds on YT for about 2 years. my 1st pc build looked so plain. wanted to make my next pc or upgrade really different lol 🙂

[sudden turret]

looks killer to me.

[rapid compass]

Thx!

[formal plover]

Why aren't there any mobos compatible with the ryzen 3???

[sudden turret]

huh?

[formal plover]

This one

AMD Ryzen 3 3200G 3.6 GHz Quad-Core Processor

[mossy citrus]

U need a bios updaye for b450 chips

X570 chips can use ryzen 3rd gen

@formal plover

[foggy hazel]

@mossy citrus the 3200G chip is a ryzen 2 chip.

well, technically it is a zen+ (which is the second generation of ryzen cpu core)

yes, the model names dont make much sense.

[mossy citrus]

o

[foggy hazel]

@formal plover most 4xx series chipset mainboards support it

and all 5xx series mainboards support it

the later one would be a massive overkill for it thou, but it supports it

[muted patio]

@sudden turret I did indeed confirm the lanes weren't used. 😉 Scroll up.

BekoraToday at 10:32 AM
No port sharing on it confirmed

[muted dawn]

Just got some of my parts 🙂

[lime forge]

WOOOOO

nice @muted dawn

[subtle halo]

❤️

post a yt vid installing it

[sacred obsidian]

dont forget to drop some parts to be famous like linus

[tranquil dust]

[muted dawn]

cant really build it rn cause im waiting for the case, gpu and ssd

😦

[blazing vigil]

rip linus

[solid delta]

[tall isle]

Help im doing a 200 dollar build and it is used should i go used and ill ahow you what i have in used if thats fine

[rocky dirge]

wait, $200 total?

[crimson blaze]

@tall isle Go used and upgrade.

I built a PC with an i5, 240 SSD, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 Pro, and 1050 Ti for only $280 total doing that

[rocky dirge]

1050 Ti is actually surprisingly bad value compared to rx470s, but @tall isle you might want to check out some optiplex prebuilts, grab a 1050 and call it a day

[austere condor]

generally a core i5 4th gen CPU/board/8GB ram, and then a older mid tier GPU, like a GTX 770, GTX 960, R9 280x, R9 380 etc etc can be had for $200~ @tall isle

i still need to buy a power supply for this

but, i should be able to get it under $200

[rocky dirge]

nehalem xeons + rx470s wiil also be under $200

[austere condor]

you CAN go xeon or OEM systems, but they can be a bit more finicky with setup

[rocky dirge]

OEMs come with win 10 😄

[austere condor]

windows 10 is free 🤷

[rocky dirge]

that's also true

[austere condor]

a custom build will also look better than a OEM build

lol

[rocky dirge]

older xeons (pre skylake) are typically just the same exact CPU as their core i counterparts, but with lower boost clocks and ECC mem enabled

most use the same socket, same chipset, same everything, and even work with nonecc RAM

[austere condor]

i'd prefer something like that over going with a HP or dell prebuilt desktop

[rocky dirge]

well, for under $200, I would just get a milk crate and some duct tape

no case fans needed

[rocky dirge]

?

[warm nova]

Not exactly a build yet, but when I get done i am moving a pc in for the family to use. Built the desk today, but it didn't take the stain as dark as i hoped so i have to redo that and seal the top

[rocky dirge]

ah cool

[warm nova]

This one will go in there

Aorus x470 gaming 7, r5 2600 @ 4ghz, 16gb of aorus 3200 ram, Red devil rx480, Fractal Define C case.

Also an aorus mousepad, aorus keyboard, aorus mouse, and some gigabyte headphones

[tall isle]

?

[jaunty karma]

Is cougar psu any good?

[little osprey]

Anybody know a good touchscreen display thatll hook up via usb/hdmi to my pc

Need it for photoshop and video editing

Preferably one that can lay flat or on a slight angle

[lyric wing]

So... With the awesomeness of NewEgg, I have finally completed all the parts lists for the new computer that I am building. So excited that it is finally completed! All for around $1100.

For those that are wondering what I am putting together -

• MSI MSG Z390 Gaming Pro Carbon Motherboard
• i7-8700K Intel Processor (3.7G - up to 4.5G OC)
• Ballistix Sport LT Red 32GB Kit (4 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 UDIMM
• Samsung 860 QVO 1T SSD
• Zotec GTX 1660Ti
• Thermaltake Toughpower Grand 750W ATX 12V V2.3 & EPS 12V 80 PLUS GOLD Full Modular
• ARCTIC Freezer Xtreme Rev. 2 CPU Cooler - Twin-Tower Heatsink, 120mm PWM Fan

This should run me for the next 5-10 years (hopefully), as I was still using the one that I built from the early 2010/11s.

[little osprey]

dont think anyone was wondering

[lyric thistle]

Party pooper

I'd recommend EVO

Fewer bits per cell or whatever

Less wear

[little osprey]

ok

big brain

[sudden turret]

👀

[lyric wing]

Did not know that. Thanks, @lyric thistle.

[lyric thistle]

Yw :))

[sterile wave]

I think for a 1.1k budget, you should be able to fit a better gpu

[lyric wing]

While I would have liked something along the lines of a 1070/1080 or 2070/2080, I had limited resources/cash to spend.

[sterile wave]

I'm saying too much of the budget went into other parts

But that's just my opinion

[muted patio]

Just upgrade the GPU in a couple years

[sacred obsidian]

Probably Could have by getting less ram and maybe an amd equivalent or just below but let em build what they wanna build

[muted patio]

1660S is plenty capable at 1080p

[quiet lark]

How can do i know if if the cpu . Gpu and ram will work on a motherboard

[muted patio]

PC Partpicker

They're pretty good about it

[quiet lark]

Ok thnx

[tulip stream]

Anyone know the best parts for a $700 build? Thanks

[rocky dirge]

celeron g3930, gt 1030 ddr4

jk

[muted patio]

I've got a $500 build you can modify to your budget

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Q7g7wh

[rocky dirge]

r5 3600, 5700 could probably fit into that budget

[tulip stream]

Right thanks

[round flare]

I don't think for 700 no

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DtKyFG I can't think of how to go cheaper without sacrificing performance

[muted patio]

2700 is on sale right now for like, $139

2 extra cores

[round flare]

what would you do to drop price

unless they're ok with spending 50 overbudget

[latent bronze]

2600X is on sale for 110$ 😛

[round flare]

where

[latent bronze]

Sorry the non X version

https://www.microcenter.com/product/505628/amd-ryzen-5-2600-34ghz-6-core-am4-boxed-processor-with-wraith-stealth-cooler

2600X is 120$ https://www.microcenter.com/product/505629/amd-ryzen-5-2600x-36ghz-6-core-am4-boxed-processor-with-wraith-spire-cooler

Still just the plain 2600 for 110$ is very good

pair it up with a Nvidia card and you have a great gaming/streaming PC

[old charm]

do you guys know any good speakers that I can buy?

[cursive wharf]

@round flare I wouldnt go CXM due to fan/coil whine. Also EX900 is pretty meh, not that great of an NVMe. Just get a 480GB SATA

and case has bad airflow

[latent talon]

Hey everyone! Happy New Year! Going to be getting myself something nice as well as a birthday gift. What feedback do you have. Also what are some recommendations for a good sized gaming monitor.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Bsqck6

[round flare]

well with that gpu monster

I think 1440p is a must

maybe 27 in?

[cursive wharf]

@latent talon storage is overpriced, same with fans, and headset isn't that great

You also have x570 but no Gen4 usage?

[latent talon]

@cursive wharf thank you. Any recommendations on a better headset.

[cursive wharf]

I'd avoid gaming headsets and 7.1 channel headsets as well. Sennheiser is usually quite good, rarely a bad headset from them. Audio Technica is pretty good as well

[latent talon]

@cursive wharf what about the gen4 usage explain. Pretty much use Linus as a guide and some other vids

This is my first build btw

[cursive wharf]

I'd also probably get a better PSU. The one you have it good, but kinda meh quality given the price of the entire PC. As for Gen4 usage, I mean PCIe gen4. That's the only reason to go x570. Otherwise it's a waste of money

Actually, you should be able to get a 2080Ti given the budget

I'll probably make a list in a fair few hours

[latent talon]

So get the Asus PSU you think? And also do you mean like the Asus 360 mobo

[cursive wharf]

Asus doesn't make any high end PSU as far as I know. I'm not talking about wattage or ratings btw, there is voltage regulation/ripple, protections, noise, multi rails, etc

[latent talon]

I'm tracking

[little osprey]

What do y'all think of this? Though some reason when i look on the site it shows 16gb not 32. And they only offer rgb for 16gb. So if i got it id order with 8 and put in my own ram.

[cursive wharf]

And what do you mean by Asus 360 mobo? Do you mean the CPU cooler or the mobo? Asus x570 mobo or Asus 360 CPU cooler

[little osprey]

Cause id get 32gb of ram

[latent talon]

@cursive wharf yes I got them mixed up.

[cursive wharf]

I'll look into it later in a few hours. Probably optimise it a bit. You just gaming? Need any monitors?

[latent talon]

For me?

I do need a monitor/monitors my friend recommended https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcsales/comments/ehpgxq/monitor_acer_predator_x34_34_ips_curved_3440x1440/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

[upper condor]

Eh

Look for a 144hz one

They might be a bit more expensive but its worth it

[latent talon]

Roger that

[winged hollow]

what would y’all say is the best budget processor? trying to think of stuff for a future desktop

[sudden turret]

ryzen.

3400g is 150 bucks, with vega 11 graphics.

AMD Athlon 3000G if you really want a budget

comes with vega 3 graphics, and is 60bucks

[old charm]

should i get a 24' monitor or a 27'? I heard a few places that 27 is too large for 1080p

[sudden turret]

eh I have both and looks fine to me

[naive viper]

should I get a 700W gigabyte GP-700H 80+ bronze or a 750W gigabyte G750H 80+ gold for an i9-9900k and 2080 super?

about 65 bucks for the 700W one and 85 for the 750 watt one

[muted patio]

I would recommend something from this list in the A or A+ section

https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40/

I dont' see either of those PSU's there

[naive viper]

its in the B+ category

it says gigabyte GH

I think thats good enough for me

[muted patio]

Oh, is that the one you have?

Then yeah, it's OK

zAh, didn't realize they put the wattage between the g and h

[naive viper]

oof the BH is in C thats a nono

[safe field]

Had a budget build I just ordered

Just now found out that a bit of insurance money popped up out of nowhere and I'm wondering how to split some of that between a different CPU and a dedicated graphics card

[cursive wharf]

Get a 2200g, better SSD, and a better PSU. Cut back on the overpriced Corsair keyboard as well

Dont want your whole PC dying cuz of that PSU now do you?

[safe field]

PSU was picked off NewEgg's wattage calculator though I've been told to take that with a grain of salt

Unfortunately couldn't fit more than 300W with the initial budget. I will definitely revisit that

[muted patio]

wattage is fine

brand is not

[safe field]

Oh?

Alright

Noted

[muted patio]

Now

If you add in a GPU, you'll need a bigger one though

[safe field]

Bigger PSU?

[cursive wharf]

Only if you get a graphics card

[safe field]

Well, I'll be getting one eventually so

I'll upgrade the PSU

[cursive wharf]

Just get a Corsair CX450

[safe field]

What's the reason for cutting back to 2200G?

[cursive wharf]

save money on a pointless upgrade

2200g is Zen and 3200g is Zen+

very, very little perf difference

3600 is Zen2

Zen2 was the major upgrade

[safe field]

Alright, so grab that if I want a real upgrade?

[cursive wharf]

3600 is a good upgrade yes. But for PSU, dont go any lower than Corsair CX450

Else your PC may get damaged

[safe field]

Okay

[cursive wharf]

Something to take note for the future, if you need to cheap out on a build, never do so on the PSU and mobo. Those two components can kill most or all components very easily. Tho, that mobo you have is good

[safe field]

Okay

[cursive wharf]

Luckily most mobos arent dangerous, even on the low end. But it is something you have to consider

[little osprey]

Mobo’s are on average a lot better then 15ish yrs ago at least, my personal rule of thumb with them has always been look for a model with good high end (usually solid is far better) capacitors

[cursive wharf]

Infact I havent heard of a legit bad modern mobo that could do real bad stuff. Were some modern mobos that had issues with themselves and may end up bricking themselves or something of sorts. But their issues were kept to the mobo

[little osprey]

Speaking of psu’s my mom use to have a cheap one causing daily reboots for years, I’m fairly sure the main problem with it though was it had something like a 86F max operating temperature and room temperature was well over 100 for half the year so it was probably damaged early on if it ever worked lol...

[muted patio]

86F max? Temps for components are usually in celcius

[little osprey]

Also most people just look at the wattage not realizing that it’s based off the AC draw not the DC output so a high efficiency model ratted at half the watts can end up put out the same amount of power...

[cursive wharf]

@muted patio I mean PSUs operating temps are usually 30c on the low end, 40c on mid end, and probably 50c - 60c on high end (maybe, never looked actually for high end)

@little osprey it can. But it depends on how much efficiency difference there is. Efficiency scales about on load. 5% load gets terrible efficiency, 45% load gets best, and 100% load gets slightly worse than best
So 1000w PSU with 80% vs 500w with 85%. With a 500w load they can be about the same efficiency

[muted patio]

Operating temps, not max temps. MOst are rated for a max temp of 85C or higher. OPerating temp varies

[cursive wharf]

But that can effect voltage regulation/ripple and other things quite easily

[muted patio]

Not unless the caps are garbage

[cursive wharf]

Dont think caps are the only play here

but maybe

[muted patio]

Caps are used for filtering and to control ripple. Provided the MOSFETS don't get super hot, it won't change much

[true portal]

Just got the ryzen 7 2700x in the mail today😋

[little osprey]

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813144264?Item=N82E16813144264 what liquid cooling will work with this motherboard

i plan on building a $1500 pc

[muted patio]

Any IO that is AM$ compatible will work

AIO*

AM4

[little osprey]

i already have a power supply

and dvd drive

can you send some links

i was looking at this liquid cooler https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16835181141?Item=N82E16835181141

[muted patio]

Fantastic

That's one I recommend

[little osprey]

what about a case

https://www.newegg.com/black-corsair-graphite-series-atx-full-tower/p/N82E16811139054?Item=9SIA6ZP3KS9747

[muted patio]

$200?

Oof

[little osprey]

i want my tower a full size

[muted patio]

This one is similar for much less

https://www.newegg.com/black-phanteks-enthoo-pro-atx-full-tower/p/N82E16811854069

[little osprey]

can i mount the liquid at the top

[muted patio]

yes

[little osprey]

good

and what video card

my range is $1500 on total amount on spending

how long of a sata cable

[formal plover]

Hey bekora

[little osprey]

will this be long enough for my case https://www.newegg.com/uv-blue-riitop-0-5m-18-cable-connectors/p/0ZF-003C-00006

[formal plover]

@muted patio

Are you here?

[little osprey]

what video card for my motherboard

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813144264?Item=N82E16813144264

[cursive wharf]

@little osprey make a pcpp list, it helps

[little osprey]

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813157884?Item=N82E16813157884 i have this motherboard what video card

i was looking at this one because i use dvi https://www.newegg.com/powercolor-radeon-rx-5500-xt-axrx-5500xt-8gbd6-dhr-oc/p/N82E16814131758?Item=N82E16814131758

[upper condor]

What was your budget? 1500?

You should definetly get a 5700 XT then, unless this is including peripherals

[stoic island]

What Monitor?

[muted patio]

I gave him a build with a 2070 super in it but it was ignored

[upper condor]

Hm

[stoic island]

He stream or no

[upper condor]

So is it with peripherals?

[muted patio]

no streaming

So yeah, 5700XT but they aren't taking advice. Only asking questions and that's about it

[upper condor]

Hmmmmm strange

[stoic island]

Ah

[upper condor]

Without this discord i would have total poop for parts

[muted patio]

Hey, they do their thing, I do mine lol

[upper condor]

Very true

[stoic island]

Yea

[cursive wharf]

Due to the LTT discord I was able to gain my meh knowledge on PSUs

[upper condor]

Nice

[stoic island]

theres a ltt discord?

[upper condor]

I dont understand the need for over 1100 psus, barely any parts use that much

[stoic island]

I guess servers

[muted patio]

Dual TItans

Threadripper

[upper condor]

Bruh

[muted patio]

etc

[upper condor]

Ok yeah threadripper

But i mean the average person probably wont have over 750

[muted patio]

Nope

no need for over 750 for the average consumer

[stoic island]

What about 6 titan rtx with dual epyc powering 6 different machines

Yea

[muted patio]

10 gazillion watt PSU

[upper condor]

Ok shsuh

[muted patio]

with RGB

[upper condor]

Did you know NASA has fast internet

[cursive wharf]

Eh, if you want to be rich boi enthusiast there is the dual 2080Ti/Titans

two 2080Tis is 750w alone

[stoic island]

What if you use your psu only for rgb lighting your entire house

[muted patio]

RB lighting itself is very low current

[stoic island]

But if its everywhere

Who knows

[muted patio]

For your whole house we are talking maybe 12 volts, 10 amps max?

talking 150-250 ma per strinf

[stoic island]

Then lets light up an entire airport

Runways and hangers and terminal buildings

[upper condor]

Whats the best panel type for monitors?

[stoic island]

Depend on your use

[upper condor]

Gaming

[stoic island]

TN for high refresh rates and low responcr times

[upper condor]

But does tn look good?

[stoic island]

IPS for good colors, though IPS is catching up in terms of responce and stuff

[muted patio]

For gaming it doesn't really matter. TN panels in todays age are pretty dang good

[stoic island]

VN is the inbetween

[upper condor]

Thanjs

[muted patio]

You'd be hard pressed to tell them apart side by side

[upper condor]

Got it

[stoic island]

Yea

Its quite slight

[upper condor]

Does VIOTEK have good monitors? They look pretty cheap

[muted patio]

I don't know the brands. Can't help much there

[stoic island]

I thought AOC had some cheap good monitors

[upper condor]

I just want a 144hz 1080p

But all the brands look sketchy

[stoic island]

There was an aoc 1080p 144hz monitor at like 140$

[upper condor]

Yeah

Saw that one

[stoic island]

My friend had one, says its pretty good

[upper condor]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/PTmV4n

Would this have decent thermals?

[muted patio]

Ya, you arne't putting CPU heat into the case

[upper condor]

Sweet

[muted patio]

Wityh a top mount AIO anyway

[upper condor]

Yeah

I dont know if there would be room for it though

[cursive wharf]

@upper condor SSD has no real reviews so who knows whether it has a good controller, is DRAMM-less, etc. Also only 2060S for a 2k system? Know you have more than just PC itself but that seems a bit little. Corsair is also overpriced on their peripherals. As a note for their mice, they have a high failure rate. left/right keys fail semi often, middle mouse gets clogged with dust real easily causing it to not work

and drop the 7.1 "gaming" headset

get a real headset, you'll enjoy it more

[upper condor]

Thanks will make a coupel revisions

Couple

[graceful falcon]

Yeah, swap that Adata for a Sabrent Rocket

[upper condor]

Does a 2079 super make more sense?

2070*

[graceful falcon]

If you're only gaming at 1080p it's overkill

[upper condor]

Which is why i chose the 2060

[graceful falcon]

Unless you're trying to max out at 144 FPS

[upper condor]

Yes tryna max if i can

Any headset recommendations?

[cursive wharf]

Sennheiser, Audio Technica, or Sony have some decent ones

[upper condor]

Mk

How about hyperx? I have an xbox headset and its beautifully cheap and good

[cursive wharf]

HyperX is meh

[graceful falcon]

I've had a good experience with my Kraken Pro V2

But don't have experience with any others to speak to, so take my advice as you will

[sacred obsidian]

hey is this missing anything? this should all work well together and be a decent starter gaming pc correct?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6g72k6

[rich void]

I am not an expert. It seems like it'd work fine. I do wonder if the new 2nd Gen Ryzen R5 1600 AF (https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Processor-Wraith-Stealth-YD1600BBAFBOX/dp/B07XTQZJ28?tag=gamersnexus01-20) might be a better choice if you don't mind not having integrated graphics. If you don't want to pay $85 for a cpu right now you could probably live with the stock cooler until you have money for a better one. GN has a video on it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wRO_AUdmfis

Again, not an expert here @sacred obsidian

[sacred obsidian]

yeah see im not an expert either but im trying to help someone do a decent starter build with upgradeability

also im pretty sure the g3000 doesnt come with a stock cooler

wait but the ryzen 5 1500 should lemme check

[rich void]

Yeah I meant the stock cooler on the 1600 refresh

GN argues that the 1600 refresh with a discrete GPU (like in your build) is a better value than the 3400G🤷‍♂️

Someone else can hopefully offer more expert advice, but that's an idea fwiw

[sacred obsidian]

ok so the 1600 i guess is iunno. showing as really pricy for what it is on part picker and theres only one option or something

but the 1500x is cheapish

will a b450m fit x series?

[rich void]

I don't know. Check that specific Amazon link I gave above. It's a new part apparently that is $85

https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Processor-Wraith-Stealth-YD1600BBAFBOX/dp/B07XTQZJ28?tag=gamersnexus01-20

[sacred obsidian]

thanks mod

[lime forge]

yep

[cursive wharf]

@sacred obsidian Switch CPU to R3 1200 and PSU to Corsair CX as EVGA BR sucks

Also spend $10 more on 16GB total RAM instead of the overpriced 8GB

Also that SSD kinda sucks

[lyric thistle]

what SSD?

[sacred obsidian]

theyre super limited in their budget

[lyric thistle]

I must knowledge this

[sacred obsidian]

like cant even afford that build lol

but i did change those

[stark meteor]

Any good psu recommendations for around $80 or less? On pc part picker it says the estimated wattage is 319 watts. Semi modular would be good because this will be my first build.

[cursive wharf]

@stark meteor There really isnt any decent semi modular PSUs tbh. Only PSUs with legitimate decent quality are non modular or fully modular. Anyways, here is a decent fully modular PSU for $80
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/4m3mP6/fsp-group-hydro-ge-550-w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-atx-power-supply-hge550

[stark meteor]

How about the corsair cxm or evga bq?

[cursive wharf]

CXM has coil/fan whine issues and BQ has bad load regulation, bad ripples on minor rails, bad transient response on the 3.3v rail, is noisy, and lacks over temperature protection, plus a few other things

[stark meteor]

Ok thanks alot

[stark meteor]

@cursive wharf sorry to bother you again but you seem to know alot, if I increased my budget to 100$ would that open up a lot of good options?

[cursive wharf]

@stark meteor You'd get a bit better. But nothing that is like a lot better. Corsair RM/RMx or Phanteks AMP are a few options that would probably be in that price range. Tho I'd put the money towards something else first as so long as the PSU is decent it doesnt need to have a high priority in replacing.

[steady ember]

hey guys im new here just wanted to ask a couple questions if thats okay

ryzen 5 3600 with a radeon rx 5700 good enough for a beginner streaming pc?

[cursive wharf]

used 1070Ti/1080 for around $250 USD or 2060 for $350 would be better for streaming

[safe field]

@cursive wharf earlier today you mentioned that the Zen+ 3200G is barely superior to the Zen 2200G? Does this hold true for the other Zen/Zen+ CPUs, e.g. 1600X/2600X, etc.

[cursive wharf]

yeah. and as a fun little bonus for the 1600...

It's going to be replaced with the 1600 AF which is literally a Zen+ CPU, basically a 2600

[safe field]

How soon is that launching? I saw it in a video today but neglected to watch the full thing :V

[cursive wharf]

Dont know that

[safe field]

Alright, Google it is

[gentle bay]

Hey

I wanted to confirm somethong

I plan to get 4 RBG Corsair fans 140mm

Where would i place it on a Fracteral Meshify C

[foggy hazel]

well, there is only 4 places 140mm fans can go in that case

https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/meshify/meshify-c/black/

click the "specifications" tab

[gentle bay]

Would like

Two front, one top, one to the back

Work out?

[foggy hazel]

[gentle bay]

Gayhsbabdbsbfbbsnnn

[jaunty karma]

that $2000 build

wow

[gentle bay]

Wait,

[jaunty karma]

he said that his pc runs 120fps in league of legends

my $600 pc runs league 150fps

[gentle bay]

So i guess ill be doong 2 top? 2 front? and then the orginal 120 mm fan from Fracteral ?

Yeah i find that a bit sad 120 fps for a $2000 computer

[foggy hazel]

that is your only option @gentle bay

[gentle bay]

Okay

But would it be fine? Like stick with that plan?

[jaunty karma]

budget tempered glass cases?

for atx mobo

[foggy hazel]

since i know nothing about the rest of your system. (with that in mind)

[gentle bay]

Yeah thats what im getting

[foggy hazel]

yes, it will be fine

[jaunty karma]

below $30

[gentle bay]

Okay

Hold up

ill link you my plan

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Gq7MCL

[jaunty karma]

with that bui

build

i think you can cheapen ur pc case

[foggy hazel]

you are aware that the included fans are more than enough @gentle bay ?

[jaunty karma]

like 70-80

[gentle bay]

Yeah but RBG

[jaunty karma]

lian li

[gentle bay]

My pc case?

[jaunty karma]

a new case

[foggy hazel]

instead of going for a cheaper case, remove the stuff that is not needed

[jaunty karma]

around 80

[foggy hazel]

like the rgb fans

[gentle bay]

I chose this one for the air flow

[jaunty karma]

it has rgb

[gentle bay]

I want Rbg

[jaunty karma]

Lian Li has a new case

that they said its good

lian li lancool 2

[foggy hazel]

for the rainbow part of this talk, you will have to talk with someone else

[sudden turret]

lol Naed.

[foggy hazel]

For the actual airflow part. You are overdoing it imo

[gentle bay]

Thanks, but as of right now—I'm purchasing on that list like rn rn

Hmm

Its okay

Go big or go home

[sudden turret]

go home Dean.

😄

[jaunty karma]

This is the case im talking about

[foggy hazel]

i am home @sudden turret

[jaunty karma]

the panels are like doors

[sudden turret]

so hinged panels?

lol

[foggy hazel]

so.. lian-li has finally decided to copy everyone else? what a shame.

[sudden turret]

eh

can only re-invent the box so many times.

[foggy hazel]

a long time ago lian-li was the "odd but really good quality" case manufacturer

mind, they have been overpriced (imo) for a long time

[sudden turret]

That is true.

[jaunty karma]

look at rakk

budget cases

that look great

[foggy hazel]

why would i?

[gentle bay]

ah too late

[foggy hazel]

that is like looking at playmobile tires for a racecar

[gentle bay]

I already placed an order for the meshify like 4 mins ago

Time to buy the RAM

[jaunty karma]

what

'should

i
