#

Sata with no dram

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

What do you suggest?

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

mp34 is good for nvme

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:24 AM

#

Ok

#

Yeah I heard some good things about it

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

ADATA XPG SX850 is good for sata

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

I’ll swap that in

#

NVME is faster right?

#

But a bit more expensive I assume.

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

The PSU could definitely be better too

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

Or?

#

Ok

#

I was checking out seasonic

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

Nvme is faster but more expensive, yeah

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:25 AM

#

They make quality stuff

#

Okay

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:26 AM

#

Seasonic is pretty decent for some models

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:26 AM

#

What do you suggest?

#

Let me check what's available

#

#

Don’t worry about price

#

I’m going to price match

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

Depends. If it's in stock, it's fine

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

They match with amazon

#

Okay

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:28 AM

#

Price matching doesn't help if all the retailers are about the same price

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:29 AM

#

I guess

#

But things are cheaper on amazon or cheaper on newegg

#

It covers the net

#

Saves a bit

#

Can’t complain

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

True

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:30 AM

#

Is 450 watts good?

#

Im also going to be using a 24” monitor

#

#

Would 450 do fine?

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:31 AM

You suggest bronze and 500w

#

Not gonna go for anything off wish

#

But

#

I think 70 is a bit off budget

#

Is 50 for that too good to be true?

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:33 AM

#

Which one?

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:33 AM

#

Seasonic S12III

#

The evga is only 63 though

#

So if it’s a must ill go for it

#

What should I go for on my monitor? HDMI?

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

I'd go for the evga over that seasonic, but that's just me. Get DP for your monitor if you can

languid mauve Aug 1, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

For display port what do I need?

sand falcon Aug 1, 2020, 5:38 AM

Sorry I should’ve responded—I had it booted into BIOS

#

How do I enable usb booting?

fast dust Aug 1, 2020, 3:54 PM

#

Switch tabs until you get so something that says “boot” or something

#

Sift through there and see if USB booting is enabled

#

If not, enable it

#

Then in that same tab look for your boot path, and set that to try to boot to USB first

That isn't a good boot drive

#

No dram

plucky island Aug 1, 2020, 4:41 PM

#

what?

potent prairie Aug 1, 2020, 4:41 PM

#

DRAMless drives can be worse than hhds when full

plucky island Aug 1, 2020, 4:41 PM

#

well w10 only takes abt 50gb

#

thats like 40%

potent prairie Aug 1, 2020, 4:41 PM

#

Here:

#

**SSD Considerations: **
• DRAM/HMB: DRAM/HMB is basically ram on your SSD that stores metadata (google it). An SSD without DRAM can get much slower than a HHD as it fills up. HMD allows your SSD to use your system memory for this, but not all systems support it. DRAM/HMB is the pretty much the most important consideration when purchasing an SSD. DRAM >> HMB >>> DRAM-less.
• Bits per cell: SLC (1) > MLC (2) > TLC (3) > QLC (4). TLC is the norm, the more bits per cell, the less durable and fast.
• Interface: NVMe SSD > SATA SSD > HHD. NVMe drives are much faster than SATA SSDs, which are much faster than HHDs. Don't assume all M.2 SSDs are better than Serial ATA. M.2 is just the form factor, they can still be Sata drives and run slower.
• Law of Diminishing Returns: SATA SSDs with DRAM offer tangible speed improvements, but a HHD --> SATA SSD is a much bigger jump in performance than an SSD --> NVME or an NVME --> Gen 4 NVMe. Don't feel that you need to buy the newest Gen 4 NVMe, they don't offer that much more than a good Gen 3
• Brand: Don't shop for a brand, shop for the product. Some brands (AHEM Samsung) make good products but charge a premium for them.
• Speed: Faster is better, but keep in mind the Law of Diminishing Returns.

scarlet gazelle Aug 1, 2020, 4:44 PM

#

potent prairie Aug 1, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

M.2 doesn't mean that much

scarlet gazelle Aug 1, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Just so cool. Small and fast

plucky island Aug 1, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

wait but if an ssd only writes then i'm pretty sure that it preserves it's speeds for way longer

scarlet gazelle Aug 1, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Fits right into mobo

potent prairie Aug 1, 2020, 4:45 PM

#

Don't assume all M.2 SSDs are better than Serial ATA. M.2 is just the form factor, they can still be Sata drives and run slower.

#

True, but m.2 doesn't mean fast

#

M.2 drives still can be DRAMless, sata and worse than an HHD

scarlet gazelle Aug 1, 2020, 4:46 PM

#

True

#

Definitely has a brighter future imo

potent prairie Aug 1, 2020, 4:47 PM

I dunno about that mobo either, but I guess you are on a tight budget

cursive wharf Aug 1, 2020, 11:30 PM

I'd be a bit cautious with the PSU, but even with that plus buying a new PSU if needed, still good deal. So go for it and then see which PSU it is (note: wattage, rating, and brand mean little in PSU quality. Gold PSUs can easily suck, PSUs from known brands can easily be IEDs, etc)

Good list besides psu @little osprey

For just photo editing you could definitely fly with a 1650s tho

Gives you more room for a better psu anyway

Oh wait

i plan on getting ssd, but for now was just worried on getting it built

she can always add an ssd

Photo editing more of a load on the cpu afaik

#

Wha

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

However, since it will also be used as a minecraft client, it will need some GPU

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

Is it like a server / pc hybrid?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

Any pc can be used as a server

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

he could use an igpu but it would be terrible

#

Any pc can be used as a server
@sand falcon You shouldn't do it at the same time

#

Better to have to separate imo

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

Not really necessary

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

Ig

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:45 AM

#

It's fine

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

Just my opinion

#

Depends on how much ram / cpu really I guess then

#

What is Azure for?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

@kind cape what sort of case you looking for? 2U, 4U, normal tower?

#

Azure is a server OS

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

Yes, what is the server for

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

Azure

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

Like a website, database,

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

VM

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

Okay sorry, what does Azure do

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:46 AM

#

It's an operating system

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

It runs a virtual machine?

#

Im so confused

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Database mgmt also

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Oh ok

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

It's an operating system, like windows or mac

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

That makes more sense

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Azure can run VM also

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Okay so what does it do?

#

Okay its an so

#

Os

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

It's basically microsoft's version of Linux

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

Is it just really intensive?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:47 AM

#

No

#

It's relatively light weight

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

So they are running a server but on azure (operating)

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

It’s modular. You but what you need

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

^

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

i don't really understand

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

Anyhoo, what sort of a case are you looking for

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

but im a windows pleb

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

I know

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

linux is pretty mind boggling to me

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

It's just an OS

#

Nothing fancy

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

Im aware

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:48 AM

#

You log in, you open firefox

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

But it cant open stuff like msis and stuff

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

No

#

There's software you can get to do that

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

Well the ones at my library couldnt

#

Well yeah

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

Also, library computers are kinda locked down and you shouldn't install stuff on them

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

I installed minecraft

#

When I was younger lol

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

@sand falcon I’m going normal tower

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

Cool

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

But I mostly played flash games

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

Any size preference?

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

Eazy does that sort of thing require a lot of cooling though

#

I'd probably think Ryzen would be better for that sort of thing

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

It really depends

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

Probably a 7 or 9

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

It really depends

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

If you have the budget

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

It really depends

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

@little osprey I think so.

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:50 AM

#

YES I KNOW

#

Im just saying in my opinion

#

Saying "it depends" is like saying "yes and no"

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Thank you for your opinion on something you have already stated you know nothing about

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

If im wrong just give me an example

#

I just said I dont know much about linux

little leaf Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

When he says it depends it depends lmao

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Clearly ryzen is better for servers

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Again, it depends

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:51 AM

#

Due to high thread count, no?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Really depends

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Not even trying bro

little leaf Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

It depends

#

Bruv

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Mostly on what you use the server for

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Not even trying bro

#

Not even trying bro

#

well yeah isnt that kind of obvious?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

for a DB server, you generally just use some low power CPU, maybe 2 cores

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Wait he isnt running an mc server?

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

@sand falcon eventually when I have the money I do want to explore NAS but for the time being do you think 4u would be a good size to start ?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

Well, 4u isn't a standard tower

#

@little osprey mc client

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

Nvm

#

@little osprey mc client
@sand falcon Yeah just realized lol

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

I can design you a rack or a tower, or both

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

My old school had a bunch of racks

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

For a rack, the PSU will be cheaper, but the mobo more expensive

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

It was really awesome ngl

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

Probably switches, right?

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

I'm not sure, it was before I was super into building pcs although I had mine

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

Okay

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

But there were a lot of servers, and it was mostly for managing internet traffic because majority of computers used chrome

#

Which is a really big bandwith hog

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

That would be a switch then

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

Okay

#

Im guessing yes then

#

There were like

#

Multiple computers in every room

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

Thing with lotsa plugs and blinky lights?

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

Yes

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

Yup

#

That do be a switch

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

I stuck my guitar in there often

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

They're fun

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

For the switches I picked up some second hand Cisco switches

little osprey Aug 2, 2020, 2:55 AM

#

It was always aced as well

#

I presume to keep them cool

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:56 AM

#

Cisco is good

#

Are you interested in any sort of raid?

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 2:57 AM

#

Not at this moment but when I get everything up and running...I’m going deeper in to the rabbit role

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 2:58 AM

#

Cool

#

I will leave the option open for the future

#

Will you be running any OS besides azure?

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:01 AM

#

Primarily Windows, I’m going to Run Linux on VM. I run Tails from a from my thumb drive

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:01 AM

#

I would highly recommend native Linux for the server, especially if the only game you run will be minecraft

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

Which Distro ?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:02 AM

#

Probably debian or centos if you're going into server

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:03 AM

#

Okay

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:05 AM

#

I finally found the case

#

📎 978ae9cfcbbd7871f11488c42c3c98c9.png

#

I love this thing

#

I will assume you will not be needing wifi?

#

🤣

deep skiff Aug 2, 2020, 3:08 AM

#

that thing pains me

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:08 AM

#

Shuddup

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:08 AM

#

that thing seems nice

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:09 AM

#

Looks good...I’m good with the WiFi 😀

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:09 AM

#

It's the next best thing to a server rack

#

Those ports on the front? hot swappable 3.5" HDD slots

#

Chef_Kiss

deep skiff Aug 2, 2020, 3:10 AM

#

that looks like if the first xbox was a server rack

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:10 AM

#

I like that !!!

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:11 AM

#

I just found the one motherboard on pcpp that is sideways

📎 unknown.png

#

That is OCD triggering to a whole new level

#

Does anyone know if the 4750g is actually available?

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:13 AM

#

Not in the US so far

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:14 AM

#

Dang

#

That would be perfect for this build

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:14 AM

#

rip

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:16 AM

#

This build makes me so happy

#

@kind cape https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mfTG9G
How does this look?

System Builder

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:17 AM

#

I assume you have a reason for the ram?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:17 AM

#

It doesn't have pcie4, but you could upgrade later if you end up needing it

#

Server with azure, database, and vm

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:17 AM

#

nothing that would be GPU workload?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:17 AM

#

Occasional light minecraft

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

oh then that's fine I guess

#

570 for 150$ thooo

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

570 is probably overkill, but eh what the heck

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

why no 1650s

#

:P

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

I actually didn't think to check price

#

I just thought cheap and went amd 🤣

#

570 still cheaper

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:19 AM

#

570 is not worth 150 tho just saying

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:19 AM

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:21 AM

#

@sand falcon that would definitely work. In the future could I add another cooling system to this build ?

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:22 AM

#

Definitely. That's another nice thing about that case

#

Lotsa cooling room

#

Not length wise, but depth wise

#

You can use server grade fans in it

deep skiff Aug 2, 2020, 3:23 AM

#

noctua go brrrrr

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:23 AM

#

Blowiematron goes brrrrrr

#

It also has separate cooling sections for CPU/GPU and PSU/HDD which is cool

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:30 AM

#

@sand falcon Got it !!

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 3:31 AM

#

Could someone pls recommend a budget m.2 that has like 1tb or more?

kind cape Aug 2, 2020, 3:33 AM

#

@sand falcon I really appreciate it. Going to post pics of the finished product

sand falcon Aug 2, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

👍

#

@opal stratus mp34 for 1TB

#

sn750 probably for 2tb

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:34 AM

#

or sabrent rocket

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 3:56 AM

#

Cool thanks

#

I mean how much storage could I really need

#

I just play games and do school work

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:57 AM

#

Try 1tb

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 3:57 AM

#

Also I put thermal paste in the pcie so it would have better temps but it isn’t detecting now, any ideas why?

#

Yeah I’ll go with 1tb, I already have 500gb mp34

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

Ahem

#

You out thermal paste in the pcie?

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

Yeah so it like cools down better

#

Pcie is the ram slot but longer right?

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

.........

#

@celest horizon is this something you could recover from?

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

Trolling don’t worry 😂

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

I'm actually curious

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

Actually now I am too

celest horizon Aug 2, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

Paste goes in the socket, not the slot

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

I saw someone put thermal paste in an AM4 socket

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

It shouldn't damage pins but how do you get it out

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

Fixable?

#

You could wait for it to dry then use like a needle

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

Decent thermal paste doesn't exactly dry

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

Oh

#

Freezer

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:04 AM

#

Don't know if that would work either

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 4:05 AM

#

I had a serious question now I forget

#

Oh yeah, you know like the amd overclocking program?

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

Ryzen master?

silk estuary Aug 2, 2020, 4:24 AM

#

What about it?

night iron Aug 2, 2020, 4:28 AM

Can somebody help me with a budget build list tomorrow morning?

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 4:38 AM

#

Ask tomorrow morning then

opal stratus Aug 2, 2020, 5:07 AM

#

Yeah ryzen master

#

When it says max CPU temp is that the max it hit in that session?

stoic island Aug 2, 2020, 5:10 AM

#

No

#

It's current highest temps on any core

#

What is it?

@leaden shell

leaden shell Aug 2, 2020, 7:24 AM

Right so I am connecting my psu to my cpu and graphics card but the cords are unmarked

#

How do I know which is which?

desert gulch Aug 2, 2020, 7:25 AM

#

They don't say pcie on one of them?

leaden shell Aug 2, 2020, 7:25 AM

#

Nope

#

Just the letter R on only one of em

desert gulch Aug 2, 2020, 7:25 AM

#

Should be one that branched into a 8 and a 6+2 connecter

#

That goes to psu

#

I mean GPU

leaden shell Aug 2, 2020, 7:25 AM

#

One has 6/2 branched 6/2 and the other has 4/4

desert gulch Aug 2, 2020, 7:26 AM

#

The 6/2 one goes to GPU

#

And 2/2 goes to cpu

leaden shell Aug 2, 2020, 7:26 AM

#

Okay also, my x570 has 12 pins but the 4/4 only has 8

#

And on the motherboard it is separated 4/8

#

Should I put it all in the 8 slot or put half in 4 and half in 8

#

I can dm you pic

desert gulch Aug 2, 2020, 7:27 AM

#

Put all in 8 slot

leaden shell Aug 2, 2020, 7:27 AM

#

Okay

Thanks

True

latent storm Aug 2, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

vivid coral Aug 2, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

Yeh but does it come with a cooler

#

I didn't look

latent storm Aug 2, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

i don’t think he mentioned it

vivid coral Aug 2, 2020, 5:46 PM

Hey i am wondering if this motherboard https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813119289?Item=N82E16813119289 works with https://www.newegg.com/asus-pce-ax58bt-pci-express/p/N82E16833320394?Item=N82E16833320394

Yes Lmao

latent storm Aug 2, 2020, 6:07 PM

i don’t really know much about intel mobos and whatnot but i don’t see why it wouldn’t

mortal rampart Aug 2, 2020, 6:07 PM

It's just a pcie adapter

#

It should work

latent storm Aug 2, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

true

mortal rampart Aug 2, 2020, 6:08 PM

#

For what reason @rigid ibex

rigid ibex Aug 2, 2020, 6:53 PM

#

Because it does not come with wifi @mortal rampart

mortal rampart Aug 2, 2020, 6:55 PM

If you want the fancy lights, but a smaller price, and a little more noise, you can go on amazon and just look up "3-5 pack 120mm RGB fans" and they're like $30

They are on the louder side but with headphones on i don't hear them

it's a little like some light white noise (without headphones on) y'know? lol

Question: I've used Intel and Nvidia all my life, going to be switching to AMD products. Can I use my Nvidia GPU on an AMD board? Or do I need to get an AMD GPU?

jagged ember Aug 3, 2020, 3:06 AM

#

Nvidia gpu works fine on an AMD board

sand falcon Aug 3, 2020, 3:06 AM

Yup

uncut goblet Aug 3, 2020, 3:06 AM

Excellent.

It shouldn't be an issue at all

#

I'm running that right now
Seconded

#

That's the right way to use that phrase, yes

sand falcon Aug 3, 2020, 3:07 AM

#

Now, if you were running an intel GPU with an nvidia CPU we would have to talk

uncut goblet Aug 3, 2020, 3:07 AM

That Ryzen 5 price = intel cant beat it.
