#

@foggy hazel thanks a lot I will for sure look into that.

little leaf
#

@little osprey are u just gaming?

little osprey
#

yes

little leaf
#

Ye 10600k

#

Or a 3600

#

And more on goi

#

Gpu

little osprey
#

I think my eyes were originally on the 3700. I was going to build my PC at the end of the year, at most early Q1.

#

I'm only gonna do 2k gaming

little leaf
#

Yes..

little osprey
#

I don't think 4k is worth it

little leaf
#

But more perf

#

For same price

plucky drum
#

Do any of you have any more advice before I leave today.

You have been very helpful today.

Thank you much

little osprey
#

@little leaf
My first PC will be pretty cursed. At least until I finish building it.
It'll be what's in my username on an Asus prime, 3 2gig ddr4 3600.
Thing is, I'll be using it in a dirt-old case with a 10yr old brand new GPU, running SATA if I'm lucky.
I'm keeping 400$ for the GPU when it comes out, and I'll buy the other components as I earn the money.

little leaf
#

The 9900k isnt worth anymore

little osprey
#

You sure, at 360$?

foggy hazel
#

@plucky drum i think all that is left for you, is reading and more reading :)

little leaf
#

@little osprey very much so

#

10600k at 300 beats it in gaming

#

And intel would not be the choice for you

#

Your budget is around 1k for gpu cpu and mobo

plucky drum
#

@foggy hazel Thank you again and goodnight

foggy hazel
#

you are very welcome and likewise @plucky drum

little leaf
#

Naed

foggy hazel
#

yes @little leaf ?

little leaf
#

I forgot

#

Was gonna ask something lol I’ll remember later maybe

foggy hazel
#

fair enough, at least we know that you have about 11 minutes of memory :P

little leaf
#

I has 2gigs of ram in my brain

robust plover
#

So 2 3100 good for streaming

#

3

little leaf
#

And its all used on chrome

foggy hazel
#

@robust plover you got an answer earlier.

fast dust
#

@foggy hazel
Ruled out ram, storage, PSU. Any other ideas?

robust plover
#

I did

little leaf
#

@robust plover youve asked about 10 times

#

In the past 3 days

robust plover
#

Sorry

#

I forget

little leaf
#

Short yes a 3100 and 1650s

#

Is fine for streaming

#

Or at least best for your budget

robust plover
#

Ok cool

little osprey
#

If you plan on using NVENC, which you 100% should for quality and performance then yeah itl stream like a beast

formal plover
#

Hello

little leaf
#

Budget and purpos?

formal plover
#

I have a pc rn but i regret every single part

little leaf
#

Specs?

formal plover
#

3000g, cheap ssd, crappy 2x8gb 3200mhz rgb ram, cx450

little leaf
#

Oof

formal plover
#

I'm using my brother's old 1050 atm

little leaf
#

Mobo?

formal plover
#

asrock b450 something

#

it's the cheap one with 2 ram dimms and 1 pcie x16

little leaf
#

Ok

formal plover
#

Also i have a 500g hdd from the trash

little leaf
#

So you could get a 3600 and 1650s

#

I mean 3100

formal plover
#

yeah

stoic island
#

cx450 ain't bad for budget

#

dGPU is what you need

formal plover
#

I found a 3700x locally for $140

little leaf
#

Wat

formal plover
#

cx450 ain't bad for budget
@stoic island It only has 1 pcie power connector

little leaf
#

Cooler?

formal plover
#

no

#

cpu

stoic island
#

ya

formal plover
#

He says he'll ship it

#

but it's pretty close to me

#

I'd like to get it to flip, but my mom wont even let me get a 1060 6gb that was $70

#

I really don't need anything overkill

#

I'm thinking maybe an aliexpress xeon system

#

I really like the look of this one

#

And the fact that it has a gtx titan

#

But it's not very future proof

stoic island
#

I mean

formal plover
#

I think it's a pretty good deal

formal plover
#

😐

stoic island
#

this is the OG titan it seems

#

like the 2013 titan

formal plover
#

yeah

stoic island
#

ya

formal plover
#

Still would be cool to have

stoic island
#

not great

#

is good tho

formal plover
#

I'm gonna see what $550 can get me on pcpartpicker

little leaf
#

Cooler?

#

@formal plover well

formal plover
#

Wdym cooler?

little leaf
#

Reuse everything besides cpu and gpu

formal plover
#

ok

little leaf
#

Try selling gpu for like 75-90

formal plover
#

I have the stock athlon cooler

#

It's my brother's gpu

little leaf
#

You need better for 3700x

#

So

formal plover
#

It's my brother's gpu

stoic island
#

3700x stock

formal plover
#

I think I might sell my system without the 1050 and the ssd

#

just with the 500gh hdd and igpu

#

I might be able to get $350 if i'm lucky

#

I got it when prices were super high

#

This is what $550 could get me

#

I feel bad cause I think my brother's pc costed over $600 and I built one for $300

#

😦

#

I wish I asked for more

#

Cause now upgrades come out of my pocket

stoic island
#

no storage?

formal plover
#

I would use the ssd i have

stoic island
#

kk

formal plover
#

fr tho i should have asked for more

#

Now that I think about it

#

Cause my brother's pc was at least $600 and my other brother just got a $700 laptop

#

And I'm over here stuck with a 3000g system

next kestrel
#

just sell it and try to get a 3200g for around 30$ more

formal plover
#

Maybe

#

But that's still only 4t

next kestrel
#

thats true

#

or maybe wait for the 4th gen APU's

formal plover
#

I have a b450 mobo

next kestrel
#

i heard those were REALLY good

formal plover
#

I don't want an apu\

next kestrel
#

ik the 4th gen APUs can even be run on A320s

formal plover
#

ok

next kestrel
#

the benchmarks show that the APUs even beat older GPUs soo

formal plover
#

What gpus?

#

I'd like to have the performance at least at 1060 level

little osprey
#

could anyone tell me if this build is good for $800 or if i should change something

next kestrel
#

ok yeah then u should get a GPU

#

the new APU's are similar to a rx550

formal plover
#

ok

#

I want to play fs 2020 with decent settings

#

Would this be a good option?

#

It's a good deal, but idk if it's right for me

#

Cause it'

#

s not very upgradable

little osprey
#

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor ($179.99 @ Best Buy)

Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard ($109.99 @ Newegg)

#

the case isnt in stock rn

#

just curious if i could get more out of that since i only wanna spend $800

#

its around $803 with tax

formal plover
#

Get a different psu

little osprey
#

do you reccomend any

#

for that price range

formal plover
#

Let me see

little osprey
#

ok

formal plover
#

Maybe this

#

There's not many options rn cause of the psu shortage

little osprey
#

would 500 wattage be enough since the PC is estimated 275 wattage

outer heart
#

should be

#

as long as you don’t really have upgrades in mind

little osprey
#

not for the time being

#

im building it for my friend she wants to play rainbow and csgo on it mainly

formal plover
#

amd

little osprey
#

why

formal plover
#

The 3700x has hyperthreading

#

and would be cheaper

wide sparrow
#

^^^^^^^

outer heart
#

yeah amd

formal plover
#

Better value

little osprey
#

i dont care about price

wide sparrow
#

If you want a i7 get the 10700k instead

tidal bluff
#

intel if price isnt a issue

formal plover
#

If you don't care about price get a 10900k

#

or a 3990x

tidal bluff
#

yea

wide sparrow
#

Bruh

#

Well yes

#

Get 10900k

little osprey
#

ok

tidal bluff
#

if price is no issue get the new i9 or i7 there very fast \

little osprey
#

Get 10850k

#

i9

wide sparrow
#

That's a thing?

little osprey
#

Yep

tidal bluff
#

9900k is 400

#

very good cpu

little osprey
#

Essentially a 10700k with no upgrade path@tidal bluff

wide sparrow
#

It's 3 percent weaker. Get 10900k

#

Xd

tidal bluff
#

but u can go 9th i9 or 10th gen i9/i7 but 10th gen has better cooling

little osprey
#

@wide sparrow yes but it has a cool name

#

😂

wide sparrow
#

Who pays for naming...m

next kestrel
#

apple???

wide sparrow
#

Just get 10900k and call it a day

#

Oh and that cooler won't do

next kestrel
#

just get a ryzen 3900x (:

little osprey
#

10850k is cooler

wide sparrow
#

You'll need something beefer

little osprey
#

More swag

formal plover
#

Custom liquid cool

wide sparrow
#

^

next kestrel
#

"light gaming"

wide sparrow
#

Or you could get air cooler intsead...no risk of pump failer or leaks.

next kestrel
#

"10900k"

#

ok

formal plover
#

Just get this

little osprey
#

Yeah like that beefy noctua air cooler

formal plover
#

wrong link

next kestrel
#

idk I'd literally get a 3600 and be done for a while

little osprey
#

@formal plover I'll send what you meant

formal plover
#

It was a $50k pc

outer heart
#

hahaha

formal plover
#

no i copied that

wide sparrow
#

Aio are overrated. They save space and look cooler but when it comes to being reliable I wouldn't trust them.

formal plover
#

it was just a saved list so i had to edit it

next kestrel
#

yeah but aios are cooler

#

(:

wide sparrow
#

But can die

next kestrel
#

def true

#

but they look cool (:

formal plover
#

no

#

air coolers are the best

little osprey
#

Aios will likely be fine for a long time xD

formal plover
#

just look at the dark rock 4

next kestrel
#

same reason u get rgb

little osprey
#

If you get a decent one

next kestrel
#

no like they look cooler

#

not that they perform better

#

lmfao

wide sparrow
#

Can kill your CPU. If a air cooler dies you just need to replace one or two fans while a whole aio means the whole thing is pretty much trash

next kestrel
#

i've never heard of an aio dying tbh

#

or coolers in general

wide sparrow
#

It's mostly leaks

next kestrel
#

could just be me

wide sparrow
#

But they're rare

next kestrel
#

i've only heard problems with custom loops

wide sparrow
#

Seriously AIOs are good but you don't want to be that one out of like a hundred that gets a bad one

next kestrel
#

^

#

was it corsair that offered full compensation

tidal bluff
#

been using a evga 280 clc for like 5 years went out once didnt leak just shut off got a new one replaced for free

little osprey
#

An AIO will likely be fine tbh

next kestrel
#

if their aios leaked

wide sparrow
#

Yeah just get an aio ....but they also require more maintenance to. You'll have to clean the radiator more often

little osprey
#

If you need a good gpu get the GT 210

wide sparrow
#

The dust buildup can get bad if you don't have good filtering

little osprey
tidal bluff
#

i blow mine out every 3-6 months

wide sparrow
#

Nice

tidal bluff
#

but i do have filters on front 3 fans

little osprey
#

Which is generally better for the price, 5700XT or 5500XT?

solar thicket
#

I'm about to get a 5700xt upgrading from an rx580. It just depends on what you use it for.

#

5500xt is a good starter for 1080p gaming, while 5700xt is better for mid range 1440p if i remember correctly. But if you have money to blow, then get a 2070 super or a 2080 ti

weary bluff
#

2080 ti dksksjbe

errant berry
#

id wait tho

#

for the 3000 series

robust plover
#

Later down the line will a 5 2600 help with streaming performance

little osprey
#

@solar thicket I'm gaming at less than 1080p

solar thicket
#

oh 1660 super or ti will do you nicely

#

or since 2060's have gotten cheaper you could spring for one of those, and run it either nicer or faster.

little osprey
#

Thing is I'm using the Radeon gpu overclock software

solar thicket
#

ahhhh i get you there

little osprey
#

And I'm not going to be using the rtx anyways for the 2060

#

Would I need to upgrade my psu if I go 5700XT? I'm running a 500W

solar thicket
#

no, you would be okay, as long as it has two 6+2 pin vga adapters

little osprey
#

I think so

#

It's a thermaltake smart

solar thicket
#

my semi modular one came with them, and its a 550 bronze

little osprey
#

Mine non modular

#

😅

solar thicket
#

id check it before buying anything

little osprey
#

Thinking of going EVGA 500W gold full modular though

solar thicket
#

and look for cables on the actual cards themselves. they vary sometimes

#

I'd go 650 for more room to upgrade

#

and semi is all you need

little osprey
#

I'm working on a budget so...

solar thicket
#

then definitely go for semi

little osprey
#

Ok

#

Ik a local parts store that carries evga semi

solar thicket
#

all that means is the 24 pin and 8 pin mobo connector is integrated

#

I love mine, it does me good and was easy to install

little osprey
#

I have a 5 3600, 570, Asus rog Strix b450-f, rosewill challenger s, Seagate Firecuda SSHD 2tb, samsung 970 Evo plus 1tb, and thermaltake smart 500W

#

Looking to change the 570

solar thicket
#

5600xt?

#

someone please correct me

little osprey
#

5700XT preferably

grand sierra
#

B450f isn't the best, and the tt smart isn't great either

little osprey
#

Ik

solar thicket
#

that is what im getting

little osprey
#

Ahh

grand sierra
#

If you are getting the 5700xt, change the psu

little osprey
#

@grand sierra I'm thinking if getting a EVGA 500w gold. Either semi or full modular

little osprey
#

Nah, going Asus

grand sierra
#

Don't get that. Get the Corsair CX 550w

solar thicket
#

respectable, but too pricey for me

little osprey
#

🤷‍♂️

#

I'm a fan of asus

grand sierra
#

Sapphire Pulse 5700xt is the best 5700xt model

little osprey
#

I'm planning on making an almost all Asus desktop

solar thicket
#

how much better than the one i sent?

little osprey
#

It's been a dream of mine since I was younger to have an Asus computer so ....

solar thicket
#

Then go for it! I wont stop you, lol.

solar thicket
#

wow it looks nice but geez its 70 bucks more than the one i sent

grand sierra
#

Yeah, and it's not as good performance

#

But not a big difference in performance

little osprey
#

Mine is also faster than Clutches

grand sierra
#

But for the price, the Pulse is better

#

The Pulse gets better frames

little osprey
#

🤷‍♂️

#

I have a 1300 boost clock speed rn so ....

solar thicket
#

yeah, it is, but my rx 580 has 1200 boost i think lemme look.

little osprey
#

I have a gigabyte 570

solar thicket
#

1366 mhz boost

#

1925 boost. is good enough for me.

true remnant
#

Should I get the 2070 or save $200 and get the 1660 super for 1080p 100+ fps gaming

primal belfry
#

is seasonic psu better than other brands?

wild hull
#

Does anyone know what RAM would be best suited for an ASROCK Z87 Extreme6 mobo that already has 2x4GB worth of G.Skill DDR3-1600?

#

I don't know whether it's a waste to buy more DDR3 RAM or not 😕

jagged ember
#

It won't be in your case, if your mobo supports DDR3 it only supports ddr3

#

Unless, you plan to upgrade it

wild hull
#

What kind of DDR3 RAM should I buy in terms of MHZ speeds, and will there be any compatibility issues if I keep the 2x4GB worth of G.Skill DDR3-1600 in my build?

jagged ember
#

You'll be limited by the slowest ram speed on your board

#

So don't mix and match speeds

#

It depends on if you're okay with those speeds or if you want faster

drifting timber
#

anyone else waiting on the nvidia gtx 3080?

little osprey
#

Gigabyte B450M DS3H
MSI B450M PRO-VDH MAX
ASRock B450M PRO4

Which is the best? Tag while replying.

exotic marten
#

@primal belfry seasonic is like the best

shrewd tundra
#

Get the gigabyte one

#

@little osprey asrock b450m pro4

little osprey
#

Any reason for this answer?@shrewd tundra

shrewd tundra
#

Any reason for this answer?@shrewd tundra
@little osprey easy over locking bios, 2 m.2 slots, 2 pcie 3.0,

#

And etc

#

Overall it’s better

scarlet spear
#

Wow

#

My college has a room full of PC’s with i9-9900k’s, rtx 2080’s, and 32gb ddr4

errant berry
#

i wanna go where you go lol

viral ore
#

yo same

#

but they all hp omen prebuilts

errant berry
#

oh

viral ore
#

also the software they run sucks

stoic island
#

Rip

little osprey
#

My school has Chromebooks beat that 😂

stoic island
#

Re-format the drives

viral ore
#

are your colleges pcs any better? @scarlet spear

stoic island
#

My school laptops are OP compared to Chromebooks

#

But can't hold anything against a dGPU

viral ore
#

ours run this cringy software that makes them annoying to bring your own peripherals and change mouse sensitivity

little osprey
#

Why do schools but Chromebooks? They're so bad

#

Buy chrome books*

viral ore
#

AND they run the basic RTX 2080ti windows drivers

#

from like 2018

next kestrel
#

most schools dont expect anything except web browsing

#

and thats the sole purpose of a chromebook

little osprey
#

I see

scarlet spear
#

@viral ore those are the college pcs

viral ore
#

read the rest of my msgs

#

i was wondering if they were actually usable, compared to the ones at my college

scarlet spear
#

Oh yeah

#

Anyone can use them

#

Feels normal to me

viral ore
#

well, ours are like the same specs, but they run this terrible graphical overlay, and bug out all the time

scarlet spear
#

Lol

#

Probably something they can monitor easily

viral ore
#

they dropped a ton of money on this esports room, and the 50 pcs just dont game very well lmao

stark bramble
#

w0t

#

50 pcs

scarlet spear
#

Well actually

#

This is the esports room lmao

#

I count 12

#

Possibly more behind these 2 doors

viral ore
#

ours also has a bunch of consoles

#

so its pretty cool for most things, except for competitive pc gaming

scarlet spear
#

Nvm they’re offices

viral ore
#

rip

scarlet spear
#

That’s cool that you had consoles

viral ore
#

yeah, the smash players like to hold tournaments there and be really obnoxious and loud

#

making any form of voice chat impossible

#

making any form of competitive pc gaming impossible lol

scarlet spear
#

Oh yeeeah

#

Vc...

stark bramble
#

smash tourneys fun tho

scarlet spear
#

Forgot about that problem

stark bramble
#

order 50 noisecancelling headphones

viral ore
#

lmao

scarlet spear
#

I can’t download anything that “makes changes to this device” but uhhhhh

#

External ssd?

viral ore
#

probably wouldnt help with that

scarlet spear
#

I could predownload stuff onto it

viral ore
#

ohhh yeah

scarlet spear
#

Is 100MB/s fast enough to play games on?

viral ore
#

install whatever to it, then run it off it

#

i assume 100Mb/s

#

and yes

#

most games use only like 3Mb/s

scarlet spear
#

Ah ok

#

Adata 128gb flash drive with transfer speeds up to 100MB/s

#

$19usd

#

Ty come again

viral ore
#

oh

#

oh

#

i thought you meant internet speeds lmaooo

#

i dumm

scarlet spear
#

Oh lol

viral ore
#

as far as data transfer goes, it varies per game, but I dont think that would be enough

#

also, you can just run steam off the usb, download game to internal drive

scarlet spear
#

Wouldn’t it ask to make changes?

viral ore
#

to download game? no, steam would already have permission

#

starting steam is your only real issue

scarlet spear
#

Ah

viral ore
#

it will probably want more perms than the os is set up to give it

scarlet spear
#

I have a better idea actually

balmy sky
#

i have a question plz
i buy these RAM G.SKILL Trident Z RGB (For AMD) 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3600 (PC4 28800) Desktop Memory Model F4-3600C18D-16GTZRX
is it working with ASRock z490 extreme Motherboard intel 10th Gen

scarlet spear
#

$27 256gb ssd and I already have an external ssd enclosure at home

#

I wouldn’t mix intel motherboard and cpu with amd memory

balmy sky
#

wuuut ok BUT i allready buy it

viral ore
#

the memory is fine

balmy sky
#

fine with intel 10 gen motherboard ?

viral ore
#

yeah, its just DDR4 memory

balmy sky
#

💯

scarlet spear
#

I gotta get back to class

#

Fun talking with you guys

little osprey
#

How many fans should I install in my cabinet? Excluding the CPU fan & back cabinet fan. Tag me while replying.

deep skiff
#

@scarlet spear the for amd is just a marketing term, it means nothing

left gale
#

@little osprey the more the better

lyric thistle
#

I wish marketing nonsense like that didn't exist because it creates so many problems and fixes none

rich void
#

Well it might get someone to buy that specific RAM, so from the company's point of view it might fix a problem. But yeah it's not real helpful to consumers

worldly cipher
#

I want to upgrade my RAM to 2x16gb for 32 gb RAM. I have HP Pavillon 590-p0xxx, sn 8CG824CM6F,product 3LA87AA#ABA, Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-8400 CPU @ 2.80GHz, (2) 8GB 859B 2400MHz, system board 843B 00. What Rip Jaw ram modules will work in my desktop PC? Or is their a more dependable brand?

viral ore
#

any ram you buy is more dependable than what you have in there right now

#

so dont worry about brand too much

#

might wanna make sure that system supports 16gb dimms, some OEM boards like to do funky things like that

worldly cipher
#

HP claims that it will support 32gb RAM

viral ore
#

32gb in 4x8gb or 2x16?

#

or does the board only have 2 dimm slots

#

oh yep, only 2 dimm slots

worldly cipher
#

Board has 2 slots, so I will need 2x16.

viral ore
#

tada

#

it is temporarily oos, but more are gonna be shipped out soon

so, 90 bux if your willing to wait

#

Thanks, but that board does not have any reviews, and so far I have narrowed down several, from many bad reviews. Is this one a brand new design?

#

NO hurry!

viral ore
#

are you talking about the ram?

#

whats board

#

either way, its a new chinese brand, but its just as reliable as most other available options

#

its literally pcb and either samsung or hynix dies

#

plus an unnecessary heat spreader to make it look cool

#

if its gonna fail, it will fail soon after purchase while still being under warranty, so there really is nothing to worry about

worldly cipher

Module, DIMM or whatever, a computer expert, I am not. Thanks for the help

i can hear it

errant berry
#

dont they have a bot @fast dust

fast dust
#

no

#

i mean i dont think so

errant berry
#

they should lol

#

i think dank memer has an erase command

stoic island
#

Wut

#

I mean there's !clear with mee6 iirc

errant berry
#

oh then just use that lol

#

deleting chat isnt too hard

stoic island
#

It deletes all messages including images tho

#

It's annoying asf

errant berry
#

true

stoic island
#

So don't do it

errant berry
#

but cant you type out how many messages you want to delete

#

or does that not work with mee6

stoic island
#

And you want to count that?

errant berry
#

i can

#

i mean

#

i did cause that mess

stoic island
#

As I said, it's annoying asf

#

Only admins have clear/purge perms usually

errant berry
#

ok

#

its 40 @stoic island

stoic island
#

You sent the messages you can go delete them

errant berry
#

well

stoic island
#

:p

#

Manually

errant berry
#

do i encompass all the messages, no

#

i dont mind

#

but i also got a class rn

#

so itll have to wait

#

oh where did it go, i was ab to do it

little osprey
#

My friend needs help with getting a pcpp list he's debating whether or not to get a $600 build or a $1000 build can anymore make me 2 separate lists to show him?

errant berry
#

ya hold up

#

so 1000 total after taxes or just 1000 for the parts

#

same for 600

little osprey
#

Total after

errant berry
#

ok

little osprey
#

So basically a $500 and $900 build

errant berry
#

ye

#

ill do the 900 first

little osprey
#

Ok bet

errant berry
#

well i didnt intend to but the 600 build was first

#

now it is 600

little osprey
#

Lol no

errant berry
#

before tax

little osprey
#

No*

#

NP*

errant berry
little osprey
#

Ok thanks

errant berry
#

ill try and keep to 900 this time

little leaf
#

@errant berry theres a better list

little osprey
#

Ok np

errant berry
#

probably

little leaf
#

3100 and 1650s

errant berry
#

im not that great at doing builds

#

so just switch the cpu?

little leaf
#

no gpu

errant berry
#

didnt i do the 1650s

#

no

#

i didnt

little leaf
#

no rx 570

errant berry
#

lol i forgot i changed it

#

ye then id go to the 1650s for the 600 @little osprey

little osprey
#

Ok

errant berry
#

lemme do the 900 now

little osprey
#

Ok

errant berry
little osprey
#

Ok

#

Thanks

errant berry
#

yup

little osprey
#

Couldn't I possibly do 512gb ssd and 1tb hdd?

#

Instead of the 1tb ssd

errant berry
#

i like to keep making builds like that so i can get better at it

#

you can

#

itll save a little

little osprey
#

Lol yea pretty good builds thanks

errant berry
#

thanks

next kestrel
#

just get a 2060 or a 5600xt instead of 1660ti

errant berry
#

good point

#

how much more is the 2060

next kestrel
#

its around 300$

errant berry
#

oh thats not bad

#

i definitely would have put that if i knew lol

#

i just assumed it was near the super

next kestrel
#

5600xt for a bit better perf

#

in terms of gaming

errant berry
#

i dont see much people with the base 2060 anways

hard wraith
#

Can anyone help me out I just got new fans for my pc and I need a usb 2.09 port for the hub and I don’t know where one is. I have the msi b450 tomahawk thanks.

lime forge
#

check at the bottom of the board

#

either of these will work

elfin burrow
#

yeah i was just looking for that pic to share lol

hard wraith
#

Ok thanks

little osprey
#

my build is a 2080 ti 3700X 36gb 3600 cl16 but im on a b450 should i go for a b550 or x570 im going asus rog strix btw

next kestrel
#

depends on type of board not chipset

#

also why

#

32gb?

little osprey
#

i do editing for different youtubers

ripe wedge
#

honestly both boards are fine... The x570 boards have just some more features than the b550

#
little osprey
#

oh thanks

ripe wedge
#

x570 has pcie gen 4 so that will give you far more upgradability in the future

little osprey
#

oh

ripe wedge
#

while b550 has pcie gen 3

little osprey
#

ill maybe go for 570 ngl

ripe wedge
#

also has more usb controllers

little osprey
#

yeah im going for the x570 then

ripe wedge
#

how much of a price difference is it?

#

for you

hard wraith
#

Does anyone know what software to use for thermaltake fans

little osprey
#

its £50

ripe wedge
#

@hard wraith for rgb? or actually controlling the fans?

hard wraith
#

Both

ripe wedge
#

I believe the fan curve settings should be in your bios

#

this might be the software but not exactly sure as I have never owned anything thermaltake

hard wraith
#

I downloaded that but this comes up

little osprey
#

ill just go with the 550

hard wraith
ripe wedge
#

@little osprey either way they are both great boards

#

huh @hard wraith interesting but not sure how to fix that one

#

maybe someone else here knows

hard wraith
#

Oh ok

little osprey
cursive wharf
#

both are a waste of money tbh

little osprey
#

because you cant afford it ?

cursive wharf
#

because the features they give over other boards doesnt justify the cost

#

by extra features I mean none

#

meaning you just pay for the brand

little osprey
#

lol someones heated

ripe wedge
#

maybe he has an all asus rog build

little osprey
#

yeah

ripe wedge
#

and would look kinda odd if he threw in a Asrock mobo

#

or something like that

little osprey
#

well i have a gigabyte card but well

#

i like a little bit of rgb even if my pc is full of 140mm noctua fans lol

cursive wharf
#

in any case, the E has slightly better VRMs, 2 digit LED debug display, one more PCIe x16 port, SLI support, WiFi, and a 3.1 header

#

lotta boards with that stuff for cheaper

little osprey
#

bruh im not having my pc looks ass lol

ripe wedge
#

sli support is nice so now he can have his gtx 680s in sli

#

lol

#

imagine spending so much money on a pc then doing dumb sli with old cards

little osprey
#

lol

#

i dont know if i should get the 3000 series

ripe wedge
#

I would wait

#

wait on 4000 series

little osprey
#

ive got a 2080ti

#

i could

ripe wedge
#

o ur talking gpus

little osprey
#

lol

ripe wedge
#

I mean I think they said rumored to be like 40% faster than last gen

#

or something like that

cursive wharf
#

50% raw perf increase just like all other generations basically

#

or 30% average perf increase

#

I'd guess

ripe wedge
#

I like how the founders edition 3090 looks

little osprey
#

what does it look like

ripe wedge
#

cool fan design and wonder how well it will be against aftermarket gpu coolers

#

has a fan on the back

foggy hazel
#

that is still only a rumour

#

and that design is a zotac one too

little osprey
#

looks ugly

#

ngl

ripe wedge
#

rog coming in clutch

little osprey
#

yes

ripe wedge
#

with the 3090

fast dust
#

wow

little osprey
#

that would bend so bad

fast dust
#

yeah there would be so much sag

cursive wharf
#

That's the RTX GTX 3090Ti Super

little osprey
#

my 2080ti is on a 50 degree angle

#

ngl

fast dust
#

RTX GTX 3095 TI Super SC XC OC gaming

ripe wedge
#

dont even think it would fit in a case

cursive wharf
#

it can if you try hard enough

ripe wedge
#

like have it poking out the front of the case

little osprey
#

custom case

stray token
#

when is the 3000 coming out?

ripe wedge
#

announcement in 7 days

fast dust
#

september. a week

ripe wedge
foggy hazel
#

i would personally enjoy the heck out of things IF nvidia does NOT announcement the 3000 series on the 1st of september

#

and instead tells people to come back a week or two later

cursive wharf
#

lol

fast dust
#

there would be riots

cursive wharf
#

better luck next time

little osprey
#

5.10mb file lol

foggy hazel
#

because i am fairly certain we could supply enough salt for the world from just this channel alone

fast dust
#

lmao

cursive wharf
#

I mean League does that quite well tbh

foggy hazel
#

League would be shivering in fear at the salt output from this single event @cursive wharf

#

League is more of a constant low supply

little osprey
#

what should i do with my old pc ? its go a 1060 i7 2600 16gb 1333 ram

stray token
#

sell the parts

cursive wharf
#

sell it for cash

little osprey
#

how much would i get tho

cursive wharf
#

clean it up, add RGB fans, and upsell it

little osprey
#

lol

stray token
#

add rgb

hard wraith
stray token
#

it will double ur price

little osprey
#

ME: puts 6 ll120 fans in it BUYER; omg £500 bargin

#

bruh moment

#

that gpu on a angle lmao

stray token
#

is there any fan that is 120mm, 3pack, rgb that can control with aura sync and really good?

little osprey
#

no clue

#

i hate rgb

#

nottua fan gang

#

noctua

stray token
#

already have those

little osprey
#

witch ones..

stray token
#

the black one

little osprey
#

oh same

#

140mm

#

?

spiral zealot
#

i use a cougar RGB set, compatible with Aura Sync

#

120mm

stray token
#

looks clean

#

is it good?

spiral zealot
#

i'm pretty happy with it. i don't control it via motherboard, i use the built in controller

cursive wharf
spiral zealot
#

but solid airflow, RGB's are clean/bright

little osprey
spiral zealot
little osprey
#

lol cheap rgb

spiral zealot
#

and? it works well and looks good

stray token
#

looks good

little osprey
#

there probably dont sound good

solar thicket
#

He doesnt like rgb

spiral zealot
#

they're almost silent

#

if you're talking about fan noise

cursive wharf
#

expensive =/= quality

spiral zealot
#

i'm using them in a mid tower case

cursive wharf
#

learn that for ROG

little osprey
#

did you turn the fan on lmao

spiral zealot
#

solid airflow, remote controllable RGB

#

$64 for the set on newegg, 3 fans, hub, remote all included

little osprey
#

lol

#

not bad

#

Hi I'm getting a PC and I'm getting a 10700k with a d15 air cooler. I'm probably going to overclock a bit.
What's a good airflow case that will keep things cool without having to ad fans?

cursive wharf
#

I'd go for upHere or EzDIY tbh, bit cheaper and still decent perf

little osprey
#

mine cost £120 for 4 140mm fans

foggy hazel
#

what you are looking for and what you are saying are logically at odds with each other @little osprey

stray token
#

should i buy this one?

cursive wharf
#

cant link until lvl3

foggy hazel
#

@stray token you cannot post links until you get rank3

little osprey
#

lol

stray token
#

kk

little osprey
#

What do you mean

cursive wharf
#

remove the https @stray token

stray token
#

didn't know that

little osprey
#

!rank

still roostBOT
#

XMARK6 Akumatie, that command is disabled in this channel.

little osprey
#

oh

cursive wharf
stray token
foggy hazel
#

@little osprey by your own statement, you are going to be OC'ing. Then looking for a case that can cool it in stock config ..... <- that just seems a bit counterproductive.

little osprey
#

level 5 wow

cursive wharf
#

Rather expensive. You getting that for 115 USD?

#

oh wait CAD

stray token
#

cad

deep skiff
#

yea

cursive wharf
#

still kinda pricy compared to upHere

little osprey
#

Well I figured a d15 and a case with good airflow would be enough to keep it cool whole OCing (a bit morning extreme)

#

Nothing*

#

This is wrong?

foggy hazel
#

there is nothing wrong in that version of the statement :)

#

the first one was just a bit ... weird :)

wary geode
#

Naed can you please change your discord photo you look like a noob

little osprey
#

Ok that's good

foggy hazel
#

@wary geode no

wary geode
#

-_-

cursive wharf
#

That's Naed's pride right there

foggy hazel
#

the profile picture does not matter one bit, so i dont see a point in having one.

cursive wharf
little osprey
#

what do you mean 6 more days

#

So any idea for a good case? I can't make up my mind between a meshify c and a p500a

foggy hazel
#

elaborate @cursive wharf ? (i am curious)

little osprey
#

p500 is godly i got that

cursive wharf
#

@foggy hazel they posted an RGB fan set

#

that was rather pricy

deep skiff
#

i think he means the comment before that

foggy hazel
#

the pride one @cursive wharf

little osprey
#

It is? Is it not too big?

#

i got a rgb case but my rgb fans lol

#

no

deep skiff
#

too big is preference, its a normal atx case size

little osprey
#

Yeah. And if I want to OC and keep things cool a less cramped case can't hurt

cursive wharf
#

I see default pics as you now Naed. Half the time I see some default pic I am reminded of you tbh due to the fact they are so rare

little osprey
cursive wharf
#

So default pic is kinda your symbol now in my eyes

deep skiff
#

cause they dont make a 144mm fan :v

little osprey
#

ffs 140mm

foggy hazel
#

ah, fair enough, i can live with that @cursive wharf :)

little osprey
#

I guess I'll stick with the p500a
Nice and spacious for the d15 airflow

deep skiff
#

if u mean a 140mm probably bc it didnt fit due to the width or something

little osprey
#

Thanks

#

rip

stoic island
#

Gray default = good naed

foggy hazel
#

@warped pendant that looks like an interesting build. Would personally go with something that dampens the light output thou. But that is ofc personal preference :)

magic drum
#

anyone know how to make this APU build cheaper without majorly affecting it's performance?
AMD Ryzen 5 3400G 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Processor-$148.99
Gigabyte B450 AORUS ELITE ATX AM4 Motherboard-$109.99
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8 GB (1 x 8 GB) DDR4-2400 CL16 Memory-$30.99
Crucial P1 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive-$59.99
NZXT H510 ATX Mid Tower Case- $69.00
Microsoft Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit-$108.78

stoic island
#

@magic drum Very easy, win 10 key for 3$, cheaper case like a mx330-g for 50$

wary geode
#

How about you get a 9100f and motherboard for 150 and buy a used 970 please

#

And what he said

#

And get more ram not one stick please

stoic island
#

H510 is a horrible overall case anyways

#

that's like 500$ budget right

magic drum
#

what is a windows 10 key?

#

and yeah it cost just about $500

stoic island
#

much better perf I'd say

#

Windows 10 key is the thing you use to actually activate windows, you can download and install windows without activating it, but some things are disabled

wary geode
#

Do you have a Mirco center

stoic island
#

Microcenter is a good place to go for deals if you live near one

magic drum
#

Thanks

wary geode
#

You can build a 13 10100 system if you have one

stoic island
#

yea i3 10100 is really cheap at MC rn at like 50$ iirc

ripe wedge
#

you could build a better computer than an apu system for $500

wary geode
#

Yes

#

I agree

stoic island
#

that build I sent was 3100+1650s

magic drum
#

no I dont have one near me:(

ripe wedge
#

thats pretty good... for $500? @stoic island

magic drum
#

like 2-3 hours away

stoic island
#

550$

#

they were missing a PSU in their 500$ build anyways

ripe wedge
#

not bad

stoic island
#

it was a necessary expense

#

2x8gb ram ofc

ripe wedge
#

is the 3100 in stock tho

stoic island
#

ya

#

105$ at newegg

ripe wedge
#

o it is epic

#

id do that

magic drum
#

is the 3100 a good APU?

ripe wedge
#

more perf for the price

stoic island
#

it's not an APU

ripe wedge
#

its not an apu

stoic island
#

there's a dGPU in that list

#

dGPU is leagues above iGPU inside an APU

ripe wedge
#

dedicated graphics card

magic drum
#

Ah, but is the other stuff compatable with an apu?

ripe wedge
#

its compatible with everything

stoic island
#

Yes

ripe wedge
#

an apu basically has a gpu inside the cpu chip

#

but they are weak

stoic island
ripe wedge
#

and only really for like office use

stoic island
#

Vega 11 is the iGPU in the 3400g

#

1650 super is the GPU I slapped on the list

ripe wedge
#

also the ryzen 3 3100 comes with a cpu cooler

stoic island
#

yes

ripe wedge
#

thats a lot more horses for a better price

#

not a fan of that single fan 1650 super tho

#

would suggest twin fan atleast

stoic island
#

it works

ripe wedge
#

true

stoic island
#

1650s is a fairly low power card

#

I wouldn't be too worried

ripe wedge
#

is there a smaller case in that price range that he could use?

#

because its all microatx stuff hes got

stoic island
#

there is but

#

mx330-g has tempered glass tho :D

#

H15 is like 45$

vital warren
#

i was gonna suggest darkflash cases but they're like $60 and don't come with fans so nvm lol

ripe wedge
#

well for a few dollars more he could get the coolermaster MB320l

#

that comes with 2 fans

stoic island
#

haven't heard of it

#

I just love the mx330-g for tempered glass at like 52$ lol

ripe wedge
#

its good I used it in my brothers build

#

the mb320l has tempered glass too

stoic island
#

67$ tho

#

that's a big jump

ripe wedge
#

o didnt see the shipping

#

might have free shipping on amazon

stoic island
#

mx330-g+extra fan would be like 60$

#

ye check

magic drum
#

so that one has fans, but the other one doesn't?

ripe wedge
#

the cougar comes with 1 fan I think

stoic island
#

cougar comes with 1 fan at 55$

#

Get that MB311L tho jake

#

mesh ftw

ripe wedge
#

lol I think I was gonna buy that one and bought the wrong one

vocal hare
#

Cougar has those like perma gone pci brackets

ripe wedge
#

still like the mb320l tho

stoic island
ripe wedge
#

indeed

magic drum
#

ok so the coolermaster is probs the way to go

ripe wedge
#

yea

#

its a good case

stoic island
#

311L ya

ripe wedge
#

mesh one is better

stoic island
#

looks good

#

I'll change the list

ripe wedge
#

am sad bought wrong one

#

but its alright

stoic island
ripe wedge
#

but when you get it id suggest moving the top fan to the back

spiral zealot
#

cougar MX-331 mesh G, comes with an RGB fan in the rear, and 3 RGB strips in the front, controllable by the reset button

#

and tempered glass

#

and i got mine for $50

stoic island
#

but fans

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

the mx330 aero or whatever can actually be prety nice

#

I think it comes with 3 fans at like 65$

foggy hazel
ripe wedge
#

can buy one lol

spiral zealot
#

ahh the mx331 mesh G is up to 60 now

stoic island
spiral zealot
#

it was 50 when i got mine

ripe wedge
#

@foggy hazel thats cool like a home theater type case

stoic island
#

That reminds me of something naed

#

@ripe wedge wtf you on about P12 is usually like 7$

foggy hazel
#

it reminds you of the SG12 or the node304 @stoic island

ripe wedge
#

lol idk i dont look at fan prices often @stoic island

stoic island
#

like

#

always

#

since I bought them a year ago

#

yea looks like the node 304

spiral zealot
magic drum
#

@stoic island I will definitely save your build for later, but it will still be a bit before I can afford it.

spiral zealot
#

or they might ship nationwide, i forget

stoic island
#

of course

ripe wedge
#

the gif preview pic

#

lol

stoic island
#

@magic drum come again when you can afford it, the market fluctuates

spiral zealot
#

no idea why it comes up as a gif, but it's fry's so 🤷

magic drum
#

yeah totaly, I will definitely keep looking at parts

spiral zealot
#

either way, i got one for my threadripper build and it's solid. plenty of airflow, lots of room to build in, cable management was easy

ripe wedge
#

its a solid pc tho what mr1111 has put together

#

the apu one you showed earlier isnt as great

magic drum
#

yeah the gpu and cpu vs. apu is a big difference, I was just talking about budget gaming and had APUs suggested to me

ripe wedge
#

they are only good for like indie titles

#

or emulators

stoic island
#

Yea nowadays with decent CPUs becoming cheaper, and good GPUs becoming cheaper, pure APUs are slowly getting phased out

ripe wedge
#

wonder when consoles will use dedicated graphics

#

lol

magic drum
#

oh do they not now? I had no idea.

stoic island
#

as in standalone APUs

#

Consoles technically have APUs but have like different chips just soldered on afaik

ripe wedge
#

xbox and playstation are custom

#

didnt even realize I was in build chat. thought this was general

stoic island
#

whatever, it has to do with PC stuff :P

magic drum
#

yeah my question was about a build, so I thought this would be where I should post it

ripe wedge
#

yea

spare hull
#

Will a 500w psu support a rtx 2060 and a ryzen 5 3600

little leaf
#

Should

#

Which psu

magic drum
#

@stoic island Just curious what build do you have right now?

spare hull
#

@little leaf thermaltake smart 500w

little leaf
#

Ahaha no

#

Thats a plastic explosive

#

I would not use that in a mid -high range pc

spare hull
#

What should I use

little leaf
#

Rmx- rm

#

Mwe gold

stoic island
#

Me? 3800x+og 2070

magic drum
#

Nice

stoic island
#

kinda weird build

spare hull
#

It's my first build so I'm still learning

stoic island
#

but it's got really nice everything

yes

#

Well first

shadow whale
#

and for the graphics card im waiting for the new 3000 series

stoic island
#

Anything you own already?

shadow whale
#

i have the 9700k and ram

stoic island

agh okay, what about mobo?

How do I get my link to stay?

shadow whale
#

so i understand i will have to pay more for it

stoic island
#

I wouldn't make a white build atm if I was you

#

it's not just about like 30$ extra for white stuff

deep skiff
#

send without https

rocky wren
#

Ty

stoic island
#

It's like 100$ extra per part

#

it's crazy

shadow whale
#

the aesthetic tax

stoic island
#

Stuff are just out of stock

deep skiff
#

i would say just for mobo+gpu its a decent more, rest is usually iust slightly more

rocky wren
stoic island
#

I'd go with a black build whenever possible

shadow whale
#

ive kinda put the whole white cost into my budget

deep skiff
#

can we pin something like that cause its kinda confusing for people

rocky wren
stoic island
#

I'll make a reference list with parts disregarding color for now

#

We'll get colors in a bit

shadow whale
#

i already planned on getting that mobo cpu combo plus i got the cpu for 250

stoic island
#

Well, my job here is to destroy your hopes and dreams :D

#

but anyways way overpriced mobo

shadow whale
#

lmao i appreciate teh help

stoic island
#

oh wait misread, thought it was 280$ lol, 180$ is decent

shadow whale
#

im in no rush to build it, kinda hoping to get alot of it on sale

rocky wren
#

Lemme know what you think of the list mr1111

stoic island
#

give me a bit, making a reference list for chainsmoker rq

rocky wren
#

All good man ty!

stoic island
#

699$ is worst case scenerio imo, leaks say 599$ so far, but just in case.

#

@rocky wren so uh, where's the CPU and GPU?

shadow whale
#

will 750w psu be enough for the new 30 series? i read something about them requiring 850 min or is that only for the 3090?

stoic island
#

Just a leak

deep skiff
#

w a i t

stoic island
shadow whale
#

and i did plan on overclocking the cpu will the noctua be able to handle it?

@stoic island waiting for rdna2 and ryzen 4000

stoic island
#

uhh, it's not a good idea to buy parts separately, you should buy them all at once, just gonna warn you.

#

Best to slap something in as placeholders at least, we have no idea on the performance on Zen 3 or RDNA2 cards

deep skiff
#

yeah you can run into doa issues if you buy far apart

stoic island
#

We don't have concrete data yet, we don't have a release date, or an announcement date

#

Nvidia at least we know the announcement is in 7 days

rocky wren
#

@stoic island not planning to buy it all rn but that's definitely what I'll be using and if they are shut ill pick up a 3600 and 5700xt

stoic island
#

(Nothing against AMD, but Nvidia has at least given us smth)

rocky wren
#

I think amd is trying to keep it close to the chest till Nvidia releases

foggy hazel
#

well, its the other way around imo @rocky wren

stoic island
#

And also, market fluctuates heavily, so once you wait that (let's say 2 months until launch), prices could've dropped drastically, and you just have buyer's remorse on your hands

foggy hazel
#

this announcement from nvidia was/is intended to come BEFORE amd can talk about the RDNA2 stuff, because we know it is in the upcoming consoles.

rocky wren
#

@foggy hazel I just said that tho

foggy hazel
#

notice the "can" part.

rocky wren
#

@stoic island yea but I'm definitely buying the case and the PSU for the build I can hold on the rest but I doubt the case will really go on sale. And I don't feel like getting burned on PSU shortages again

stoic island
#

The thing about buying parts apart is that you don't have a way to test them

foggy hazel
#

and is that isnt clear enough, then lets phrase it like this:

stoic island
#

so if you bought a PSU, it came DoA, and you don't notice until you actually build, you can only hope for the RMA to take less than a month

rocky wren
#

I'd be able to test everything except the mobo which I wouldn't buy yet

foggy hazel
#

"I think amd is trying to keep it close to the chest till Nvidia releases" <- no, because they dont currently have the option of speaking even IF they wanted to.
