@prisma stag anyways, don't get mcafee, if you want a antivirus, only actually decent-ish one I know is malwarebytes

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

cause i dont know better haha

#

is mcafee not good?

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

Mcafee horrible

#

it's a literal joke

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

that price i put on aio is with tax and shippping

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

to put into perspective

#

best 360mm aio on the market imo, 125$

#

arctic freezer ii

#

and the 240mm and 280mm versions are around 105$ and 115$ respectively

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:35 AM

#

what would u suggest for a better anti virus

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:35 AM

#

Malwarebytes

#

or just use your common sense :P

ornate shoal Sep 23, 2020, 2:49 AM

#

why are pcs expensive

hazy aurora Sep 23, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

Right guys would a 750w psu be good for genral overclock on both cpu ryzen 5 3600xt rtx3080 on tuf x570 mobo

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:52 AM

#

why is gold expensive

#

yes

hazy aurora Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

Or should i go for 850

Sent my motherboard off for RMA 😦 something physically wrong with motherboard)

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

is over clocking easy?

hazy aurora Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

Ish you have to take your time

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

750w is fine

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

like 30 min job?

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

overclocking is always your own risk to take

night storm Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

@prisma stag I have used Avast since about 2006 and haven’t gotten a virus since

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

and your own adventure to partake in

hazy aurora Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

If i use a psu calculator it only suggests for it without oc

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

@night storm just because you haven't gotten a virus doesn't mean the antivirus is good at detecting em :P

night storm Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

But these days Windows is pretty good

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

or is good :P

#

Common sense is always best option

prisma stag Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

imma over clock everything to the burning max

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

I like malwarebytes

#

@prisma stag aka kill your chips?

#

I mean you're welcome to just blast voltage on everything to full and kill them after a week, your choice :P

Is this any good

#

Looking for cpu coolers of this style

polar prism Sep 23, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

what cpu do you have? thats not as good as most stock coolers

foggy hazel Sep 23, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

is there any particular reason you want to cook your cpu like that?

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

I like the fact the fans are rgb and they're visible from the side panel

#

My side panel isn't acrylic and has a small portion where you can look into

#

The side fans coolers are any as visually appealing with it

foggy hazel Sep 23, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

okay, so a visuals first choice. I am going to leave you to do that on your own. Best of luck

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 4:00 AM

#

I have a 5 3600

#

Well visuals is important, but I'd rather get one that also functions decently too

polar prism Sep 23, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

that wont be better than most stock amd coolers

void sonnet Sep 23, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

yeah man, rgb stuff is pretty cool. I say go for it

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 4:01 AM

#

lmao seems legit

#

@polar prism do the have AMD coolers like that?

void sonnet Sep 23, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

You might want to go for something a little better tho

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 4:02 AM

#

I saw the wraith, but it looked like only the border lit

#

And I have all my case fan slots used up

polar prism Sep 23, 2020, 4:02 AM

yes, but the thermals work

my Brother to pick ryzen 7 over ryzen 5

#

and after that he said everything was fine

mild trout Sep 23, 2020, 5:13 AM

#

@stoic island isn't that because it's super CPU limited?

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:13 AM

@obsidian wolf use pcpartpicker

Especially since that motherboard isn't compatible with ANY ryzen chips

@torn locust ask away

#

I recently replaced mine too

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

Windows has turned it off as it has a problem. I put it in different slot, same issue. GFX artifacts and other weirdness have been happening for a while

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:36 AM

#

But as an upgrade not a "one died replace with new"

#

What's the question

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:37 AM

#

So, I have an Asus MAximus hero VI Mobo, was thinking about get an RTX2060, will that work on that old thing?

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:37 AM

Do you have a pcie x16?

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:38 AM

Yeah, it has 2

#

Well I upgraded to a better one

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:46 AM

#

I figure a 2060 will be a nice upgrade and hopefully everything else will keep chugging along for a while 😛

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:46 AM

I went from a Gigabyte Radeon 570 to an Asus rog Strix Radeon 5500xt

I doubled my fps

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:46 AM

#

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

Actually...more than doubled

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

My monitor does 60, so as long as I hit that I'm good.

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:47 AM

#

Went from mid 40s at 1600x900 to 100+ at 1080p on a tv

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

I'm running at 2560x1600, and for modern stuff the 780 wasn't really cutting it anymore anyway. Not surprising given how old it is but it was still doing pretty good at lower resolutions for the most part.

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:48 AM

#

Btw, are you going to be using rtx or streaming?

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

I was hopping to do use some RTX stuff (cyberpunk is coming...)

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:49 AM

#

Ok

#

Cause if you weren't a 1660S might've been a better choice

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:50 AM

#

Ah, yeah. I like me some o that fancy lighting hehe

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:51 AM

#

Lol

#

I woulda gone 2060 too but I don't stream, I record. Nor do I use rtx. Most of my games aren't rtx compatible

#

And those that are I have GeForce Now which has built in RTX

#

Btw, I have a server challenge. Let's say I have $8k to spend on a desktop and I want to go AMD, what would be y'alls recommendations?

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

One way to do it. I don't have much that'll use it now (minecraft? lol) but would be nice to have it for cyberpunk with all that glowing stuff haha

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:53 AM

#

Yeah

#

My younger brother didn't believe me about the graphics improvement in Minecraft with rtx so i googled an image. He didn't speak for the rest of the day.

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:54 AM

#

yeah, it's not for java version though so I probably won't use it, although who knows. I've seen the screenshots, very cool!

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 5:55 AM

#

Sadly I play Java and modpacks

torn locust Sep 23, 2020, 5:55 AM

Hello fellow Neweggers. I am looking for assistance in building my PC

#

I require a computer with 32GB of RAM in order to run Toon Boom

#

Would any be able to help me out selecting parts that are compatible?

errant berry Sep 23, 2020, 12:46 PM

whats toon boom

calm lily Sep 23, 2020, 12:47 PM

It's an animation program

errant berry Sep 23, 2020, 12:47 PM

#

oh

calm lily Sep 23, 2020, 12:48 PM

Is it as easy as clicking on "Build a PC" and choosing the "mainstraim" and then replacing the 16gb ram with a 32gb?

mossy citrus Sep 23, 2020, 12:49 PM

@calm lily wait a few weeks, ryzen 4000 is coming out

gusty moat Sep 23, 2020, 12:49 PM

#

does anyone know if I'm able to upgrade desktop order when ordering from newegg? for example, they have a deal on CLX SET with AMD Ryzen 3 3200G 3.6GHz, GeForce GTX 1650 4GB, 8GB Mem, 480 SSD, WiFi, MS Win 10 Home but I want 32GB Mem and WInPro (64bit) ... will they do that for me? or whatever they have boxed is what they sell?

mossy citrus Sep 23, 2020, 12:49 PM

thats a bad deal

tall mantle Sep 23, 2020, 1:01 PM

#

@gusty moat I like CLX a lot and their customer service is great but its just overall better to build your own pc so you can have the most customization and you can be happy with the build

#

and if you do your own you can get all those parts you mentioned ebfore

gusty moat Sep 23, 2020, 1:02 PM

#

thanks Bhurger.. I used to do that, but I've been 10 years removed from doing that and not sure I'm comfortable with it this these days.

tall mantle Sep 23, 2020, 1:03 PM

#

well im pretty sure that theres a custom build thing for clx on their site

#

so you can get that 32gb of ram you wanted

#

and windows 10 pro

gusty moat Sep 23, 2020, 1:04 PM

#

thank you so much.. will head there now

tall mantle Sep 23, 2020, 1:11 PM

#

yeah you should be able to customize certain builds, so you get what you want

#

btw when I got a CLX pc a few years ago the power supply killed itself within a few weeks so maybe upgrade the psu in the customization options

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 1:14 PM

#

the hell is a clx

#

I've never heard of them

#

Pricing doesn't look great tho

#

for example, NZXT 999$ on the left, CLX 999$ on the right

📎 unknown.png

#

the 1050$ one does have 3600+1660ti but NZXT still has better everything else

#

@calm lily I had a guy that needed a PC for Toon Boom a few weeks ago, when I looked into it, it seems that toon boom likes Intel chips (Only listed intel chips for recommended specs), and did not require much GPU accel. That's gonna be some things to think about while waiting for new parts to be out :)

And maybe RMx PSU Instead of RM

vital warren Sep 23, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

can save a few bucks on mobo, and monitor is a little pricey for 1080p 144hz

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:09 PM

That storage hurts me

vital warren Sep 23, 2020, 7:09 PM

^^

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:09 PM

#

@small osprey I'd go AMD r5 3600 in a build with only a 2060s

vital warren Sep 23, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

and you don't need to pay $100 for windows

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:10 PM

#

Such a big portion of the budget is spent towards cpu+cooler+mobo there

sleek kraken Sep 23, 2020, 7:10 PM

Man hopefully 3080s get an actual stock at some point...

This is the one i have right now

#

and it’s pretty nice

#

the only slight problem is the viewing angle if you’re looking upward at it

#

But when are you ever not looking directly at it

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

can someone talk to me by voice to wallk me through the building process

?

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:29 PM

If no one shows up, you can just follow this, with some modifications like putting in CPU differently, and just send msg when you get stuck

how do i put the ssd in the mobo

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

2 questions, 1 how is a rtx 2070 super with a r7 3700x. 2 is ebay reliable to buy parts from

little leaf Sep 23, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

fine but I would wait for the 3070

#

a 3070 more or less a 2080ti

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

@shell wind m.2?

#

You see the slot on the Mobo?

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

yea i know but i dont have that much money and my current cpu is a ryzen 5 2600

#

plus i already have the 2070 super

little leaf Sep 23, 2020, 7:46 PM

#

why upgrade then

#

the 3700x isn't going to improve gaming perf very much

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

so then what cpu would get me better performance?

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

no i dont see a slot

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

or should i stick with the 2600

little leaf Sep 23, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

None really

#

stick with the 2600 until an new cpu and gpu

#

Is what I would do

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

In-between the CPU and the first big pcie slot @shell wind

little leaf Sep 23, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

Since a new cpu won't improve fps

#

very much

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

no i dont see a slot
@shell wind there might be a cover on ur motherboard

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

i just feel like it bottlenecks, cause i see people getting better performance with the same card as me but idk

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

for the ssd slot

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

should it be lifting up at an angle when i push it in

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

📎 unknown.png

#

example pic

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

yes

#

it should

#

about 30 degrees

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

there should be a standoff where you screw it in

little osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

also im trying to spend as little money as possible but my hard drive died so i need a new one, would an ssd be worth or just another hard drive?

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

where are the screws

stoic island Sep 23, 2020, 7:51 PM

#

a standoff like this so the SSD goes in flat

📎 iu.png

#

should've came in a small bag in the motherboard box

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:52 PM

#

could it be a littler black scxrrew

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 7:52 PM

#

Mainly 3600
@stoic island will a r5 3600x be a bottleneck for 2070s?

#

anyone? will a r5 3600x be a bottleneck for 2070s?

#

nope nvm

#

apparently not

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 7:56 PM

make sure things r where they r supposed to be

indigo stream Sep 23, 2020, 8:18 PM

I tried the hdmi on the motherboard and the graphics card

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:18 PM

#

Are the power pins plugged in

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:18 PM

#

i find that sometimes people think you still use the mobo hdmi instead of the gpu

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:19 PM

If its a modular psu make sure all of the cables are secure

indigo stream Sep 23, 2020, 8:19 PM

Aslong as its on

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:21 PM

#

I have the amd logo facing to the left

#

Just because of clearance

echo light Sep 23, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

OK, I am a HS teacher (English & IT) and I need to replenish trainer kits for distance learning. I am looking for a reasonably priced (because I need 35 of them) motherboard / CPU pairing that is durable. No major performance requirements here, they are mostly built, have a few labs done on them and then dismantled.

#

To be honest, my brain hurts and I just can't search anymore

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 8:23 PM

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

thats supposed to happen

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

ok

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

it allows heat to transfer from the cpu to the cooler

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

how much thermal paste did you get on you

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

do ur research and know wut u r doing before u start building

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

you don't need much research

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

well yeah

#

but like

#

watch a couple of vids on how to build

indigo stream Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

just doesn't make sense to hold it by the bottom

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:27 PM

#

@indigo stream means the gpu isnt detected

#

And it cant post

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

you properly install the gpu?

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:28 PM

#

You gotta open the pcie slot I believe

#

With a little knob or something

#

On the side

#

Show us how it’s installed

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

will i have to put pressure to put the screws in for the cooler

indigo stream Sep 23, 2020, 8:29 PM

ive got an asrock b550 phantom gaming 4/ac motherboard and the gpu is in the top pci slot

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:29 PM

#

no pressure on the screws is needed

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 8:30 PM

vocal hare Sep 23, 2020, 8:31 PM

IO shield goes in the rear panel of the case, there should be a vertical opening near the top of the rear panel, and it will snap into there

but make sure you line it up with how the motherboard will sit into the case

that fills the gaps around the ports on the back of the motherboard, so you don't get dust and stuff coming into the case

yeah

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:34 PM

#

where on the mobo do i plug in the fans

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:34 PM

#

checking to see if that case came with a fan controller for actual fan power, or just for the RGB

#

if it has a fan controller that controls speed, all the fans would plug into that, and then that would have 2 cables, one that powers the controller from your power supply, and then a single cable that would go to one of the fan headers (locations of headers will be in the motherboard manual)

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

how do i know hwich one i have

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

Does ur case come with a fan controller?

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:36 PM

#

it has fans on it if thats what ur asking

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:37 PM

#

i don't think it comes with a fan controller for speed, just argb

#

from what i'm seeing

#

td500 mesh can come with or without argb controller

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:37 PM

#

Then plug ur fans into the motherboard

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:37 PM

#

And is it sata powered?

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:37 PM

#

where on the mobo

#

i think but idk

#

should i send u the mobo i got

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

oh it looks like the case should come with a splitter for the motherboard

#

one sec

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

It should say on the mobo, or in the manual

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

idk

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:38 PM

#

📎 td500.png

#

so you want to try and find that splitter

#

a 3 to 1

#

that's from the td500 mesh manual

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:39 PM

#

can someone talk to me

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:39 PM

I cant either im kinda tied up rn

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

so what do i do

#

where is the splitter

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

On the motherboard

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

it came with the case, so it would be with the accessories

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

where the mobo is big

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

Oh the splitter

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

what doe sit look like

#

where is the splitter

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

A three to one cable

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:41 PM

#

look at the picture i sent, it shows what the splitter looks like

#

it will have 3 connectors on one side, and one on the other

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

In ur case accessories

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

Plug the splitter into sys_fan and plug the fans into it

#

Or whatever its called

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:42 PM

#

as far as where it plugs into the motherboard, look at the motherboard manual, and it will show you where the sys_fan header is

#

you plug the fans into the 3 split connectors, and the 1 connector on the other side goes into the sys_fan header on the motherboard

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:43 PM

#

it is already conected where do i plug the ONE into

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:43 PM

#

Plug the fans into it

#

Then plug it into sys fan

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:43 PM

#

it is where do i put the sigle cord

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:43 PM

Sys fan

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:43 PM

#

Sys fan

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

where on the mobo

#

where is that

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

What motherboard?

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

sys fan???

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

Look in ur mobo manual

#

Or on ur mobo

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:44 PM

#

it will be a small 4 pin connector, and the board itself will label it either system fan or chassis fan

#

it might be chassis fan as well

#

different brands use different terms

#

cha_fan, sys_fan, chassis fan, they're all different terms for the same thing

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:45 PM

#

wheere on the mobo is it? i.e next to the ram..etc...

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

Just search ur mobo

#

Or give us ur mobo model

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

ooo

#

ooo

#

cha_fan??

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

that's the one

small osprey Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

Yeah

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

yessssssss

#

would that make my monitor show no signal if that is not on

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:46 PM

#

No?

#

It’s possible that because you had the fans unplugged the system refused to boot

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

well that than is not the issure right?

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Or POST

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

ok

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:47 PM

#

Turn it on

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

wait

#

cha_fan has 4 and what im trying to plug in has 3

#

is that right

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

that's fine, just line up the tabs

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

Yea

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

so one can be empty

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:49 PM

#

yep

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

k doing it now

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:50 PM

#

there are 2 different ways to power case fans, one uses 3 pins the other uses 4

#

but you can plug a 3 pin fan into a 4 pin header and it will work

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:51 PM

#

its hard to get in

#

is there a place on the moo with ?

#

3 pin

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

Its 4 pin?

#

Cha_fan I believe is 4 pin

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

im putting in somthing with three but the mobo has 4

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:52 PM

#

Find Sys_fan

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

@spiral zealot

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

make sure that you're lining up the tab on the motherboard header with the slot on the fan connector

#

it will only fit one way

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

but i can do 3 on 4 pin right?

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:53 PM

#

yes

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

@spiral zealot

#

k

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

Wont that cause a shortage???

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:54 PM

#

no, 3 pin is DC power which works on a 4 pin PWM connector

#

if you connect a DC fan to a PWM header, the motherboard just runs it in DC mode

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

ok i think i got it

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

it will be a snug connection because it's just friction that holds it all in place

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

now should i put eveything back and see if i get a signal??

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

yeah

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

should i put the glass and the back of the case on?

whole stag Sep 23, 2020, 11:55 PM

#

Nah

#

It can run without it

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:56 PM

#

i always say don't do it, it's bad luck in PC land to close the case before it all posts

shell wind Sep 23, 2020, 11:57 PM

#

no signal!!!

spiral zealot Sep 23, 2020, 11:58 PM

where are you plugging your monitor into?

#

Ok that is important

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:01 AM

#

it would be in the top left of the motherboard, and would be either a 4 pin or 4+4 pin connector from the power supply

whole stag Sep 24, 2020, 12:01 AM

#

Yeah

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:01 AM

i can't tell in that pic

Its a 4+4

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:04 AM

#

what do i put in

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

there will be a cable from the power supply with a connector on the end that says CPU

#

that connector needs go into the right socket, it's usually labeled something like CPU_ATX12V or something

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

thats in

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:05 AM

#

ok

#

did you fliip the switch on the back of the power supply itself

#

out of the box it will be turned off

#

so you have to turn it on before you power up the system for the first time

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

yes

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

ok

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

huh?

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:06 AM

#

when you turn on the system, do any of the fans start spinning?

#

cpu fan, gpu fan, etc

#

we know the case fans don't start

#

but what about the rest of them

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

the gpu fan and the cpu one;

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:07 AM

#

hmm ok

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:08 AM

#

ok

#

any ideas

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:13 AM

#

i can't think of anything else except to check all the connections one more time, make sure everything is secure

#

you can try finding a different fan header on the board to try and run the case fans

#

sometimes you'll have cha_fan1 and cha_fan2

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:14 AM

#

ok

ill look

#

found cha fan 2

didnt work

i was guilded by a vid and a person

#

cha fan 2 didnt work

#

will it go in the wrong way or it wont push down

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:22 AM

#

it will go in if it's flipped the wrong way around ,make sure the tab and slot are lined up

shell wind Sep 24, 2020, 12:25 AM

#

how do i know if its lined

#

uo

#

up

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:26 AM

#

there's a slot on the fan connector and a tab on the motherboard header

#

the tab lines up in the slot

#

when you plug it in

that was a thing that used to matter when 3000 series ryzen first came out

#

but not anymore

#

@shell wind ok, so now we need to figure out the video issue. which connector are you using to plug into the video card? HDMI, displayport?

#

just gonna make sure that you have your monitor set to the same input as what cable you're using, in case it's not auto detecting and switching over

stoic island Sep 24, 2020, 12:34 AM

#

@spiral zealot it was only a problem for b450 and before too

#

x570 never had an issue :)

spiral zealot Sep 24, 2020, 12:34 AM

#

well yes

#

but it's simpler to just say that it's an issue that used to matter but doesn't now
