@little leaf why 3100 tho? The core to CCX layout is bad compared to 3300x and that cant be changed

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 12:50 PM

I'm glad I jumped on buying my case when I did. It's now out of stock on Newegg with "Sold out"... meaning it might be a discontinued model at this point.

Does the fan face up or down

oak moss May 10, 2020, 1:24 PM

#

some face up and some face down. mine faces up @cloud drum

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:39 PM

#

Now my computer won't display on my monitor

#

How do you fix this

#

??

oak moss May 10, 2020, 1:52 PM

hmm

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:52 PM

#

It happen after I switched the Psu

#

Everything is on

oak moss May 10, 2020, 1:53 PM

#

bad hdmi cable?

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:55 PM

#

@cloud drum if your case is vented under your psu, face the fan down, otherwise face up.

#

@cloud drum check gpu connection time psu at psu and at gpu.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

Time?

#

PSU at PSU?

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:56 PM

#

To*

#

Sorry

#

On mobile

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

What is that

#

PSU to PSU

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

Check your connection between your psu and gpu

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

Oh

#

It's on

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

And I was saying to check both the connection at the psu, and also at the gpu.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:57 PM

#

The GPU is on

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:58 PM

#

Did you gpu some loose from the mobo

sullen spoke May 10, 2020, 1:58 PM

#

Has the pc worked before

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:58 PM

#

Come

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:58 PM

#

Yah it has ghost

#

None of my mouse and keyboard aren't turning on either

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:59 PM

#

I would start at the monitor, and work your way back. Make sure monitor is on and has power, secure display connection at monitor, secure it at gpu, secure gpu to mobo

sullen spoke May 10, 2020, 1:59 PM

#

Maybe it’s not posting

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 1:59 PM

#

The monitor works I tested it with the Xbox

granite imp May 10, 2020, 1:59 PM

#

Are your mouse and keyboard wired into your mobo io or your cases front panel io?

sullen spoke May 10, 2020, 2:00 PM

#

Check if something like the ram came loose

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 2:00 PM

if that's connected to your gpu

#

they need to be in pci-e

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 2:21 PM

#

Ohh really

#

I mean they're were pcie connectors on PSU

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 2:22 PM

@cloud drum those 2 cables are connected to what?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

The case fans and SSD

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 2:22 PM

#

okay

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 2:23 PM

#

I prolly have to plug I'm the pcie and use those connectora uh

#

In*

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 2:23 PM

#

that is practical, if you want the GPU to actually power on.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 2:24 PM

#

Even tho it's lights are on?

#

Ok I'll try that

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 2:24 PM

you didnt read any of the manuals did you?

put the old psu back in

was working fine yea?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:35 PM

#

Yah it was

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:36 PM

#

so two things happened.

#

either that psu is messed up

or you messed something up during the swap.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:36 PM

Hmm

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:37 PM

so go back how ya had it...

if it boots as it should.

something wonky with that psu

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 3:38 PM

@cloud drum one piece of advice that will work is this: read the manual

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

We can not stress that enough.

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

IF the parts actually work, following the manual WILL work

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

read read read read read.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

Yah

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

what model/wattage was the old psu compared to this one?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:41 PM

#

Wait

Yes

OMG

Finally something

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

so

#

yeah

#

didn't I tell you to not overclock

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

Yah you did

#

I disabled it

#

Like you said

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

that says otherwise 😄

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:42 PM

#

But I showed you pics

#

Of me disabling it

#

📎 IMG_20200510_114311.jpg

#

It was already set to 3.6ghz

#

Why was it still on 4.2

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 3:46 PM

#

You must have grimlins in your bios

#

that change settings after you hit save

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

The CPU won't change the clock speed the BIOS was set on

#

It still says 4.2 on task manager

#

But AMD ryzen master says this

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 3:55 PM

@cloud drum What Ryzen CPU are you using?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:55 PM

#

3600

#

Ryzen 5

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 3:57 PM

#

ok, there are some things with in Bios that will conflict with Ryzen master, on the 3XXX CPUs you should use one or the other I don't remember exactly what the items were off the top of my head but that may be whats going on here, I have had this happen to me on client builds I have done so I am just giving you a heads up

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:58 PM

#

When you say one or the other what do you mean

#

Ryzen master and the BIOS

#

?

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 3:58 PM

#

you should either use bios, or ryzen master, not both

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

Well this was happening before I had ryzen master install

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

im trying to see if I can locate my notes about this so I can give you correct info as I don't want to say something wrong

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

Okay

#

AkaneSalute

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

oh this happened before you installed RM?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 3:59 PM

#

Yah

#

I used ryzen master to verify

#

What was set

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:00 PM

#

ok, sounds like a Bios issue, and fair enough, have you updated the bios to the latest from the MFG? (check that your not configured to boot from a back up bios also)

#

one of my servers kepy changing my settings even though I kept changing them each time, wound up that the previous user/owner? of the server set the bios jumper to boot from the reserve bios

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

I updated three weeks ago

mellow basalt May 10, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

@granite imp 🤣

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:01 PM

#

ok

#

I would try resetting the BIOS to factory defaults and see if the issue persists, and if im misunderstanding your issue please let me know so I can provide accurate info to you

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:02 PM

#

Will that reset it to it's 2017 version

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:02 PM

#

Reset cmos time?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:02 PM

#

Or will it stay to the current version

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

no, it will just take it to the preconfigured set up as if the board left the factory with the currently loaded bios on the board

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

Oh ok

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:03 PM

#

were just going to take it back to when the board was born

#

but the BIOS will be what ever version you updated to

#

(hope that makes sense)

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

Yes it does

#

Thank you

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:04 PM

#

your welcome

#

this will let us see if the issue still persists even with factory settings

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:06 PM

#

Yes yes

#

AkaneSmooch

#

It still overclock when k reset

#

I

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:11 PM

#

Um

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

pull battery

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

So CPU is at higher clocks for some reason..?

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

unplug cord from psu

#

press and hold powerbutton

#

drains all caps

#

and residue power

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

Box I thought they reset to factory defaults already

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:12 PM

#

making sure it was done right

#

you can tell someone to pull the battery out

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

I mean like

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

and then thats all they do.

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

Bios reset to factory defaults

#

Not reset cmos

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:13 PM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

I dunno at this point.

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:14 PM

fk it

#

ill reset my pc

#

nuke it all

sudden turret May 10, 2020, 4:15 PM

#

lol?

#

reset how

#

so when you see the 4.3

#

you do realize that's just the standard boost clock for that cpu right?

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:17 PM

#

like facotry rest my pc

#

📎 unknown.png

#

sooo

#

i mean it says speed

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:18 PM

#

That's normal boost clocks lmao

#

Like on default

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:20 PM

#

your CPU is naturally going to boost up in certain situations

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:21 PM

#

oh ok

earnest olive May 10, 2020, 4:23 PM

#

@cloud drum did you set that 1.35V manually

#

or is that the chip doing it itself

#

1.35V is safe if the chip is doing it itself but very unsafe for a fixed voltage for oc

#

on zen 2

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

@earnest olive its all default lmao

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

it idd it self

#

did

earnest olive May 10, 2020, 4:24 PM

#

ok just making sure

#

saw some guy on reddit manually set his cpu to 1.54V yesterday...

stoic island May 10, 2020, 4:25 PM

#

Mines just on default xD

📎 unknown.png

#

Also @earnest olive Remember, safe voltages varies between chips

#

1.325v is the average safe voltage for Ryzen.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

@earnest olive and im sure that guy will shorten his CPUs life depending on where that voltage is being applied to 😄

earnest olive May 10, 2020, 4:26 PM

#

I tried to reduce my cpu voltage by 50mV offset yesterday cause I heard some people got better performance from that and I already undervolted gpu

#

but my cinebench score dropped by 200

#

:(

#

idk I heard 1.325v for zen 2 is unsafe on average

#

depends on load but if you set that as a constant voltage it can cause degradation

#

@cloud drum i would recommend that you read some more articles with actual testing.

#

also, no need for language like that here

cloud drum May 10, 2020, 6:03 PM

#

ok

little leaf May 10, 2020, 6:05 PM

#

Amd beats intel on processing like rendering because it has more cores

#

And threads for the same price

#

Intrl just keeps the clocks speeds the highest

midnight pelican May 10, 2020, 6:06 PM

#

yeah

#

10900x?

little leaf May 10, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

In most cases having highet clock speeds is better for gaming

midnight pelican May 10, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

wtf is inte

#

intel

#

a 10900k and 10900x have essentially the same benchmark if not the k is better

#

yet the x is double the price

@midnight pelican maybe better oc

#

Idk because I havent looked into the nee chip benchmarks

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 6:52 PM

I just hope next month I can get my hands on a monitor that doesn't cost a fortune

little leaf May 10, 2020, 7:08 PM

whats your budget?

midnight pelican May 10, 2020, 7:20 PM

@little leaf from as far as i can see the only difference is that x299 boards are better

dual core..

lyric thistle May 10, 2020, 10:00 PM

#

What's wrong with dual core?

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:01 PM

#

well there is only 2 cores being the main issue :p

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

its a machine meant for doing only 1 thing

lyric thistle May 10, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

It could be for doing multiple things even, so long as the tasks are small, like media center

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

they just already get pushed pretty hard from a 4k youtube or 1080p 60 twitch stream, i would say avoid them unless absolutely necessary

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

I just hope we see the reasonably priced monitors come back in stock over the next month. The prices are ridiculous at the moment for things that aren't completely OOS.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

i would hope a media center pc could do 4k 60 youtube

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

@little osprey that depends entirely on the software stack attached to it

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

and in a few years?

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:04 PM

#

The internet connection for 4k would be unreasonable this would be for streaming SD or HD and playing locally.

lyric thistle May 10, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

Not entirely unreasonable, but if you're below the average in internet speed, then you're out of luck for 4K

#

Myself included

#

Thanks, AT&T

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:05 PM

I live in a rural area so satelite or celluar hotspot is the only thing available.

Yeah, I'm lucky enough to have...DSL or whatever it is

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

oh, oof, makes more sense but, still.. im sure the 2200g or 3200g would be better choices though

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

@celest fjord have you thought about OS?

lyric thistle May 10, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

More than 50 bucks a month for 5Mbps down internet

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

Windows 10 home should work, not too sure about any linux os and definitely not iOS

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

fair talk @celest fjord

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:07 PM

#

even on an i5 quad Firefox wouldnt do 4k youtube

#

chrome would though

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:08 PM

#

that has more to do with the hardware implementation and the way that chrome gets to choose codecs

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:09 PM

#

Having 8gb of RAM has become almost necessary for most applications now a days so making sure that the OS doesn't hang up on bandwidth is more important than processing speed to me.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:09 PM

#

im on an old dual core now 2 threads, and i have to 480p everything 360p even

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:09 PM

#

ouch

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

although i am running windows 10 on it lol

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

We're about to leave DSL behind and upgrade to fiber optic Internet.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:10 PM

#

fiber is so overkill lol

#

might be good for wifi connections

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 10:11 PM

#

Our DSL is not great and seems to be getting worse over time. The plan we were offered by the new company is roughly the same price but much faster.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:12 PM

#

i got 200 down 20 up and its always stable as heck

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:12 PM

#

With 2 physical cores and 4 threads it may work better than a few older processors. The 3200g is just under $100 and the motherboard would need a BIOS update before it will work with the 2nd gen ryzen.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

also whenever the next APUs drop they will be beast mode

#

probably

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

Very true though they will only work with the 500 series boards

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

yeah

#

hopefully they aint too expensive

#

b550s

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

@little osprey you are forgetting the rest of the stack

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

The B550 is supposed to be the midrange boards so between $80 to $200 is what I am expecting though the smaller the board the more expensive it gets unfortunately.

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

there will also be a 520/30 chipset

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

oh i didnt know, interesting

#

same time release?

foggy hazel May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

nah

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:15 PM

#

-_- lol

cold sorrel May 10, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

I'm probably going to get a 550 board at this time, rather than x570 like I once planned. Just got to wait for them to come out.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:16 PM

#

im literally gunna try and wait for ddr5, but, il probably buy after ampere

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

Just hope MSI doesn't flub the roll out of the B550 boards like they did the X570

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:17 PM

#

someone will make good b550s if not msi

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

Yeah that is why I went with an ASUS board for my current build, haven't had an issue yet Knock on wood

stoic island May 10, 2020, 10:18 PM

#

do you have to claim bitcoin and stuff?

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:24 PM

#

not sure, I tried the BT stuff but never got very far with it

#

maybe I should try and dis out my bit coin mining stuff again....but it never seemed to be profitable

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:26 PM

#

The only way to make mining anything profitable is to set up a renewable energy source instead of paying for electricity off the grid. The power bill makes or breaks a mining operation.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:27 PM

#

hmm....perhaps, maybe I should tie my mining rigs directly into the renewable energy source I have....

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 10:29 PM

#

If the batteries can handle the draw and you have enough energy collection to cover it then I don't see why not.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:31 PM

#

There Dell given Voyager, and my new Ryzen power gaming box given Defiant 😄

buoyant flame May 10, 2020, 10:44 PM

What renewable power source do you have @pastel briar

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:51 PM

#

Trying to fine tune the wind power opperation

#

though part of me is wanting to put solar on the roof but the cost seems a bit much (and Corona....) so I have been experimenting with building wind turbines

#

small scale ones

#

to see how feasible wind can be (we do at times get stupid amounts of strong wind as were about 3 miles from the coast line here in CT)

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:54 PM

#

thats cool as heck

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:55 PM

#

not really, it came from being stuck at home bored with nothing to do, which is partly why I am now the (proud?) owner of three servers....

#

I mean I suppose it can be cool?

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:57 PM

#

solars cool too but, dont think that would be very effective in canada with the winter thing

#

unless snow reflecting the light helps balance that out

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

well where I live we get a metric tone of sun on a day to day basic and IIRC our solar rating is up near the double digits

#

(we are more or less in the Jet streme path)

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:58 PM

#

you would legit have the power ckmpany paying you during certain months

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

true that is why I am thinking about doing it and letting it feed the grid

little osprey May 10, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

i dunno if they actually do that tho lol

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 10:59 PM

#

some do

#

especially if your putting more into the grid then you take

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

It is strange that the RV solar kits are standardized yet the ones for your home have so many variations.

little osprey May 10, 2020, 11:00 PM

#

if your sure youl be using them the rest of your life its worth considering

#

otherwise you could buy another house lol

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:01 PM

no, but its sad there is no standardizations period.....

#

hmmmm thoughts?? AMD FirePro W7000 4GB card being offered to me for $50.00 (usd)

#

its a work station card...

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:03 PM

#

Those generally have no video out and are mainly for extra compute power. If you are doing a lot of number crunching then that would be good but I would worry that it would have been flashed or undervolted and not reset.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:04 PM

#

hmm...

#

it looks to have video out put ports on it

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:06 PM

#

Huh, it does, retails new for $299 on amazon.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:07 PM

#

interesting, would I be a fool not to jump on the offer or should I look for something better?

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:08 PM

#

At $50 it would either have to be used or possibly something wrong with it. Would it be a bad idea to ask for proof it still works?

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:12 PM

#

I suppose I could, I always assume something is wrong with items I buy (but I also have the ability to fix things too) so im not entirely afraid either

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:13 PM

#

If you are willing to work with it then that is a great deal.

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:14 PM

#

well I would be shoving it into my servers and letting it loose on folding at home also

#

or do you think a Quadro card would be better?

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:16 PM

#

I haven't seen the spec comparing the two so I can't give you a recommendation.

#

The real question is if you will need special drivers for it and if you do will those driver interfere with any other graphic card in the computer.

sullen spoke May 10, 2020, 11:19 PM

#

There is the option of game ready or studio drivers for nvidia cards

#

Idk how multiple gpus in one system work tho

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:20 PM

#

So it might be better to match brands

pastel briar May 10, 2020, 11:22 PM

#

well the servers are using what ever intel/ibm GPU (on board) they have, that is why im considering these things as work station cards are supposidly better at crunching numbers

celest fjord May 10, 2020, 11:25 PM

#

So it wouldn't matter as long as you have a video out

sullen spoke May 10, 2020, 11:27 PM

I don’t really think matching brands matter too much

potent prairie May 11, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

Ok, will look into that. Is the mp34 good spec wise? I chose the rocket b/c they had benches almost the same as the 970 Evo plus

@potent prairie actually, the sabrent rocket is fine, but the sabrent rocket q was slower and less endurance

#

But sabrent rocket (normal) pricing was off iirc

potent prairie May 11, 2020, 4:38 AM

#

I definitely price check ram. This isn't an urgent deal, so I'll do some waiting for deals
Ok thx

MP34 spec wise look very good

#

@potent prairie thing is, the kit I linked is cheaper and faster soooo

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@cursive wharf honestly that graphics card sketches me out, you know how good the cooling on that is..?

The 2 fans seems really spaced out, making it look like the fans might not be blowing directly into the GPU...

#

Or not cooling the vram or something

potent prairie May 11, 2020, 4:44 AM

#

Might try for an evga card again, for the warranty

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 4:44 AM

Fan doesnt have to be over GPU die, barely makes a difference

Just needs an actually decent cooler and fans

soo.. yes or no Some AMD X370 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Matisse CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions.

I think 10th gen was gonna be like close to 600+

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 5:39 AM

#

10th gen is going to be about $75 or so more then AMD

#

bulk buy of 1k units is like $40 - 50 more then AMD's single unit pricing. So single unit pricing of Intel would be $20 - $30 more then bulk buy per unit

the corsair ram should fit what you need. it is unbufferred non parity 2666 mhz ram. I would maybe do a bit of research and see if you can find another person that has swapped the ram with that kit, or check with corsair and see if they have any kind of qvl for that particular mini.

fast dust May 11, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Yep unless you have a massive budget are you're doing some heavy overclocking

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Like 1 or 2 c difference

little osprey May 11, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Yeah

#

I can probably have over a 3000 dollar budget if I wait in the long run

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

Hei you know about when 3300x comes out?

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Mostly just noise difference on GPU and looks

#

And no

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Don't really want to make a 3400g list

#

But

#

Nothing good on the lower end rn

fast dust May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

3300x gonna be epiccc

little osprey May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

What does it change from the older models

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Could put in 3300x part with manual $120 price

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

But I don't want to make people wait for months for it to release lol

little osprey May 11, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

Oop

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

Eh lots of reviewers got samples so I'd say prob within a month

#

I'll make manual

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

3300x is the first (timing wise rather then stack wise) Zen2 low end chip is what changed. All lower end 3000 were Zen/Zen(+)

#

3000g is Zen, 3200g is Zen+, 3400g is Zen+

foggy hazel May 11, 2020, 4:47 PM

#

in the stack, the 3300x is the second

#

Put emphesis on the rest of the list more than the GPU since expecting a budget for a GPU upgrade.

#

Mobo is kinda placeholder

little osprey May 11, 2020, 4:50 PM

#

Ah

#

Ok

#

Thanks

stoic island May 11, 2020, 4:52 PM

Oh right do you need Monitor keyboard mouse or headset?

#

In the list

little osprey May 11, 2020, 5:00 PM

#

I do

#

I want to buy a curve screen moniter or multiple ones that can screenshare

#

As for the keyboard and mouse I'm probably gonna buy a Logitech mouse and just an led keyboard

#

Headphones I've had good experience with hyper x so maybe those

serious answer please, how hard would it be for me to spray all the parts that i can safely spray on my pc with a paint that reacts to uv light /black light

cloud drum May 11, 2020, 5:22 PM

Idk about that

stoic island May 11, 2020, 5:23 PM

@meager relic honestly I'd take a look at LTT's mineral oil PC build thing, since they used something to protect the parts, I forgot what.

meager relic May 11, 2020, 5:24 PM

i know the mobo and the ram for example cannot be sprayed

@cloud drum why would you go with the 120mm rad

cursive wharf May 11, 2020, 6:07 PM

@meager relic You can do mobo if careful. Need to spray a protective coating around it, just making sure that sockets dont get hit as this coating is an insulator, making sockets unable to communicate to anything inside it

32gb is overkill easpically for gaming. 16gb is all you need for any games today.

@harsh bolt since you play rust, I got a question for you
how the heck do you use the bow

I can use any other weapon in the game

#

just not the bow

#

Crossy goes fine for me

#

but I cant hit anyone with a bow

harsh bolt May 11, 2020, 8:31 PM

There's a good bow aim train server. Spent probably about 100 hours on it . I have 2.2k hours in rust

So I have a question. I have a Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard. My PSU is EVGA SuperNOVA 1000 G3, 220-G3-1000-X1, 80+ GOLD, 1000W Fully Modular, EVGA ECO Mode with New HDB Fan. So I am wiring the PSU up and I came across the 8-pin EATX12V and 4-pin EATX12. My PSU cables has 2 of the 4 pin plugs. (I can add photos) Do I plug all 3 in? Or do I just do the 4-pin and one of the 8 pins?

harsh bolt May 11, 2020, 10:10 PM

I said 2.2k earlier but I looked. Its actually 2.1k

Thank @sudden turret & @stoic island . I'm looking to buy soon within the next couple of weeks. I just wanted to buy everything from the same place if possible. Newegg is an option unless you guys can recommend another reputable place to order from

Newegg is great, just some things are getting out of stock quite often, might need to do one of the stock alert thingys

usually..

with 1,200 do you need eeeeeeeeeeverything? or 1,200 just on the computer itself.

everything being monitor, keyboard, mouse, desk.
