ram
It looks fine
but, as mentioned, technically what you have will work
ram isnt super sensitive?
when im adjusting the radiator it moves the ram
if that is fine then im just going to keep it how it is
keep it
guys i was having way more fun buying all the parts for this build then i am actually building it
depending on where it is, flat headed screwdriver
Flat head screwdriver
Needle nose pliers
@prisma stag took me 8 hours in 2 days to do mine
what is that , that i just broke?
?
yea
Might want to check that
I can't be 100% certain but it looks like the Mobo power port for mine
manual says usb 3.2 connectors
hell i dont need that LMFAO
im just gonna act like it never happened
😂😂
now i know tho, this crap breaks ez
its just the usb connector
@little osprey power ports do NOT have pins like that
as in, those can not carry the amount of power needed :)
Ahhh
woot woot
You're doing it the smart way fyi@prisma stag
When I did mine I assembled my mobo first and then put it in the case
had to haha impossible to hide those cpu cooler cables if u build it on mobo then put it in case, u gotta mount that to cpu then moutn ur mother board then mount ur radiator
That is a onboard usb header
you bent a pin
yea but i dont need usb 3 haha
so if you cannot straighten it , then you lost a onboard usb header . just make sure its not touching another pin
im asking is losing usb 3 a big deal?
Not rlly
The only thing that will probably matter is the rear io
Just make sure to mark the one you don't have hooked up
@granite imp may i ask what fans you used in your build pic?
normally you would hook up the front panel usb ports to those
So that you don't plug something in and it won't work
thats what i was doing dark
but since i have a connector right beside it
i said screw the one i broke and just plugged it into the other one
then it was already slightly bent or your came in at a angle
so we gucci, unless something else is gonna use usb 3
yea lol
i need to just stop trying to guess where crap goes
$300 mobo and i already broke part of it hehe
@granite imp may i ask what fans you used in your build pic?
@earnest olive rear exhaust is nzxt fan that came with case, obviously stock amd cooler fan, and the rgbs are a cheapo China brand that I don’t think even exists anymore, at least their amazon listings aren’t there anymore. CoolMoon I believe. I got them for free for leaving a review.
ah interesting i was just curious cause i've never seen them before
you shill @granite imp :P
ah interesting i was just curious cause i've never seen them before
@earnest olive they are like twice as thick as modern fans. They use a 6 pin connector too
you shill @granite imp :P
@foggy hazel got my 600w rgb psu for free the same way. 😂😂😂
:P
Saved me a good amount on my wife’s budget build not having to buy case fans or psu
Buy her a 970
What model
either C or D tier
PSU Tier List 4.0 rev. 14.4 Last Update: 10-09-2020 Gold - best units in the tier (includes requirements for blue color in tier A) Blue - quiet operation under moderate load Green - small form-factor See spreadsheet for changelog, methodology, detailed description of colors, s...
neither sound good for a 1000w psu :P
@stoic island I'm running a thermaltake smart
500w
Which is better in terms of quality? The cobra or the smart?
Lol
at least you have a working one without defects
It has for a month now
and we can't say that about a new raidmax psu
I wanna replace my tt smart with a cosair rmx
No random shutoff, no surges, no sparks, no fires, nothing
Well I’m very proud of myself because I just upgraded my computer for the first time and I didn’t kill any of the parts LOL normally I would’ve just had my friend do it but this time I decided to take some initiative and do it myself. Did a cpu and its cooler swap, psu, and case swap. I’m just glad I didn’t shock anything to death but I took every precaution I knew I could
well done @zenith shore
Thanks. Yeah it wasn’t hard at all. Even though it took three hours because the hyper 212 Evo is being a pain in the ass. And it also made me draw a little blood trying to put in the cpu power connecter
How?
i have a lot of questions on what would be good for me and my pc
i have had a firend show me some parts
and would this be good for streaming?
What is 'this'
Oh god
Whats wrong with it?
it has 5 parts
thats all
.
Unless you’re overclocking
even ocing
I don't feel like a b450 board today
spend a bit more grab a pg4 that'll do fine
it's not like you need tomahawk's VRMs with a 3600
hell, b550 pg4 is usually cheaper than b450 tomahawk max lol
Its good
alright
And what case are you looking at?
like mx500 1tb is more expensive than a mp34 1tb
let me find it
if it's a NZXT H510 please return if possible xD
ye I hate suggesting it
it's just
everyone wants one for some reason
idk why
I hate it for having bad airflow :P
lol mr1 its not gonna cause ur gpu to blow up
It has the vent in the side so technically it should be ok?
technically isn't exactly great
Yeah
It's not something you have to give up on for but
I didn’t need great airflow, it was cheap, and the looks were perfect for my wife
How's this for a pc ryzen 9 3900x on a x570 board and a rtx 3080? Fyi Don't have parts nor the money yet
It's a "if it's still shipping, cancel order" kinda thing.
She doesn’t even have a gpu, not gunna get too hot
wheee list making time
that's fine
Has anyone had this issue or know how to fix it? I activated with the key shown yesterday and everything was fine. Went to start up tonight and it isn’t activated and gives me this message.
@tribal bear what's total budget
1500
because if your friend is suggesting you get a 3600 and a rx580 for a 1500$ build....
yea no
cpu is fine
rx580 4gb is just
why
i dont know
Need wifi?
You got ethernet or wifi
what ever is better
What are you using?
Oh
i have no idea what im doing
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mCXcZf
Thoughts? Its my first build.
to start off, something more like this for a 1500$ budget... @tribal bear
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JdZY6R
we'll work it out as we go
okay
Yeah idk much about what I'm doing lmao
I'll make some edits rq
Yes, but let's talk it through first.
@little leaf the placment of the connecter is dumb for my motherboard it’s in between the rear case fan and the CPU cooler and it’s almost directly behind all of the iO and there’s like 3 inches of space and aluminum fins are sharp especially on your knuckles
When are you building?
Get zen 3
2 fans are included with the case, there's 7 "slots" in total so I thought I'd fill them all with the same kind.
yea you should come back again in about a month after zen 3 releases
And wait for x670 mobo
@balmy girder need wifi? and total budget?
@cloud oasis no reason to, no extra future support.
You dont need to fill all the fan slots as that may disrupt airflow
It's the fans being 16$ a piece that's interesting xD
but anyways
I'm making some renovations to that list >:)
I have wifi, do u mean like router? And budget is pretty flexible because I don't plan on building it for awhile. Around 1k-1.3k if possible
monitors is there anything i should get?
But @tribal bear keep that list in mind while looking around (knowing what performance you should expect for ~1500$)
alright i will
as you can see in the list, 3600+3080 easily
1tb NVMe SSD, good everything all around
@balmy girder will you be using ethernet or wifi
Wifi
my only concern is streaming good with that?
Nvidia GPUs do be good for streaming
Yes
alright
and CPU in that list is subject to change once new CPUs come
And I was gonna use a 32" sony Bravia tv as a monitor, is that bad? Thought it might work
possibly motherboard if they get interesting new motherboards
uhhhh I'd rather you not
TVs usually have high latency, low refresh rate, high pixel response time, etc.
I can find both of yall monitors if you give me a budget and a preferred resolution
okay
@balmy girder when are you planning to build?
Just looking around for what you could get? I'll make you a rough list again, and you should come back again right when you're able to buy
@tribal bear Do you mean like a monitor that can be used vertically?
I looked through everything on the original list and it all seems compatible and all should fit together
yea
Pivot is the term you are looking for @tribal bear
(might be)
Is kinguin a legit site to get windows keys?
so it is a thing!
@tribal bear just about anything is a "thing" :)
There's monitors that can pivot to be the other
I don't think there are modern monitors MADE to be vertical?
there are, but not in consumer space
im looking for a double monitor set up
Just invest most of ur money into a good one and get a really cheap one for second
yea!
monitor 1 is a pivot-able monitor
yea yea
a lot of non-budget monitors can do that
i have 2k total and i could get 400 more if needed
@balmy girder something like this (I know fan shipping is wacky rn, but usually P12 is at a decent price)
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rWNC27
Quick example for you @tribal bear good 1080p monitor that happens to be able to pivot and swivel
https://www.newegg.com/black-acer-xv240y-pbmiiprx-um-qx0aa-p01-24/p/N82E16824011374
(according to the listing at least)
it looks like it too based on the pictures of the hinge on the stand @stoic island
perfect!!
however
i love it
see the different bezel sizes?
the picture of this section made me weary so just in case
Is using a mini atx in a mid atx case good? Woulnt that he a bit small? Do I only need 1 fan? And do I need to use that case specifically?
ah yea
It's fine
so i should get two right?
those can drive you absolute bonkers depending on your personality :)
double monitor
mATX fits in ATX cases, and mATX motherboards are functionally the same as ATX boards, just with some slight reductions like extra USB slots and such depending on the board. @balmy girder
For the average consumer, they just look small, that's about it.
Ah ok, makes sense
@tribal bear there's always the option of checking out some 1440p144hz monitors :)
there you can see them @balmy girder
alright 🙂 i am now
You could do a setup of a main 1440p144hz monitor, with a side vertical 1080p monitor :)
I'll find and link you one rq
oh cool thank you
Example 1440p144hz one :
https://www.newegg.com/black-red-acer-xg-series-xg270hu-27/p/N82E16824009769
@prisma stag for what?
ddr4?
what CPU?
What CPU, and what cooler?
ryzen 7 3700x and a corsair h100i also mounted on my msi x570 procarbon wifi inside my TD500 Mesh case
(I'm guessing G.skill aegis is good, but best to have all the info before I start spamming out links :)
its not "tallness"
wait H100i is gonna hit your ram?
yes it is naed
its width that is the problem
Can't you just mount the cooler with tubes to the left? :P
the ram he has sticks about a mile up towards the edge of the part
oh what?
its the fans @stoic island
tallness and width it seems
that doesnt look bad i know but trust me that is alot of pressure on em
its the width that is the problem here
i had to force it in there
at the top of my head? no
so is the video card not released yet?
alright I'll go look
@tribal bear Yea, since you said you're gonna be building sometime in the future, safe to place that in.
alright cool
i wouldnt hurt anything if i just took a sander to the side of the fan would i
i could just grind the side of the fan couldnt i?
@prisma stag there is a RGB ring in that iirc
I'll link aegis here while looking for smaller ram while being 3600c16
https://www.newegg.com/g-skill-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820232884
@tribal bear also forgot you were the one with the RTX 3080 in your list... The RTX 3080 is released, it's just having stock issues
thought I put a 3070 in your list for some reason lel
oh alright
they're just out of stock like everywhere right now
@foggy hazel ballistix heatsink looks to not stretch out the side, so I'll link it here for now.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083V93HJG
Well, it's an amazing GPU for the price, that's why it's sold out everywhere right now lel
aye, that can solve it
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/JdZY6R everything here is in check right?
Yea, I can defend my choices if you got questions.
What are some other cases that have that geometric design the meshify c has?
okay
Ye, im just looking at other stuff
what operating system do i need
Windows 10. Don't buy the 110$ retail key, 5$ key off eBay works just as well :)
oh alright
i love the meshify c
Well of course, if you like Linux, definitely go Linux if you wanted to.
i recommend it, 9/10
The geometric shapes is pretty limited to just TD500 mesh and Meshify C afaik.
It's interesting to get into, I wouldn't suggest starting off with it if you have never tried it
okay
Stock cooler works fine, you can get a 30$ decent cooler down the line if you don't like the noise.
Sure, why not.
meshify c gets pretty good airflow, the front panel is stupid easy to remove (other cases are an absolute pain), it looks good, i dont have to bend the sata cable too bad because of the size and spacing, and the preinstalled velcros and cable routing is really nice
td500 mesh comes with 3 fans, meshify c comes with 2 >:)
But the mesh c looks more modern-ish
i'm most likely going for the mesh c for my build
eh, I like the td500 mesh look
just the simplicity of it i like better
white looks even better imo
How much money you willing to spend on a case
white c:
$100, and I want a black one if possible
both are good cases
I go black td500 mesh as a one-case-fits-all for my lists :P
it's just really nice
I've been looking at the mesh c for awhile, so I think I'm gonna go with it
Yea, nothing wrong with it, could add another fan or two in the front
no need to fill it out tho
Idk what it is about the td500 but I don't really like it.
I don't either
Ryzen 5 3600 and 1660 super a good combo?
fine
if u go td500 u might run into cpu cooler fitting problems like me
Ah, how many should I add then? Comes with 2
td500 looks trash imo
P500A ❤️
And alot of ppl have said that a liquid cooler is useless, but I want it for the astectic lmao
It's useless for the relative pricing
it's not useless in terms of performance
just not great pricing
Get arctic liquid freezer
@prisma stag eh, it does get a bit tight with rads, but I'm all for it having 165mm clearance so you can fit a NH-D15 :D
Only like 100-130
Yes liquid freezer ii is great
How many fans should I add for the mesh c? It comes with a fan on the front and back
I'm gonna get the same type
Private list.
You don't need any extra fans
oh shoot sorry
Linux is something to get into later, I DEFINITELY DO NOT SUGGEST you start off with Linux on a new machine if you're not used to it
Widnows 
no 212evo plz
2 front, 1 back, any on top or bottom?
i know i just dont want to forget it
ez
oh really sick okay
Reality can bend to your will
and if you REALLY wanted a cheap cpu cooler, gammaxx 400
inspect elements prison sentence to 10 minutes
I don't like 212 evo :(
wait how do i slap 5 bucks on it
- Add custom part
gear icon, this
okay
so i see the bottom its saying something about compatibly
The Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler may require a separately available mounting adapter to fit the ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming 4 ATX AM4 Motherboard.
Brrr
Would someone mind if they could make a pc part list for a streaming and gaming pc for 1600 australian that can also edit
Og I thought you were saying bare no cooler Mr1 lol
Smh now you edited it smhsmhsmh
What's the difference between the g.skill ripjaw and oloy? I compared them and there exactly the same besides price
with network adaptors should i get one
Ah
I don't see oloy ram priced decenty for 3600mhz cl16 so
should i get one i dont want to use the internet for my pc
For storage should I also add a mechanical drive along with the team mp34 ssd u added?
looks about right
awsome!
Wnats the difference between ssd and m.2?
about a keyboard and mouse should i just pick one
@foggy hazel
M.2 is a connector type
I add it
@balmy girder there are 3 relevant terms for you, "M.2", "SATA", and "NVMe"
"M.2" only tells you about the port, and "SATA" and "NVMe" tells you the protocol and speed of the drive
"SATA" Drives can be "M.2" or 2.5 inch
Ah
"NVMe" drives are only "M.2"
People will tell you to grab a M.2 drive, but they likely mean grab a NVMe drive for the speed.
the MP34 I slapped in your list is a M.2 NVMe drive.
Oh? What should I change it to
Lol
@balmy girder okay lemme just go down from the top on why I changed stuff in the list I sent you earlier
That kit of ram is 3200c16
I put 3600c16 on the list I sent you
I put in like a 3070 as a 500$ placeholder of sorts
just don't get a 2060 in a 1200$ budget
Ah didn't notice it was 36, thought it was 32.
yea I said "there were no oloy kits reasonbly priced at 3600c16"
anyways
PSU can be better
@obsidian wolf please dont use that one. You are paying double for no reason.
So whicj one i should buy?
i9 9900k or ryzen 7 3700x for rtx3080 build?
@foggy hazel ??
Ok
quick modifications to the old list :
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tDqvwh
front
@junior crescent 1600aud, I'm tired so it's not great, but it's a start for a list
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/y347Dx
gawd damn 200$ webcam?
streamer man
of course
Guess so
Ik those other fans were over priced, but its $5 more and if I'm only getting one ill probably just get the same one so they match. Unless the fan u changed is better
im getting a mic too
600g of paste
How hard would it he to change out the fans that came with the case?
its the iceball plug and play
@tribal bear tbh it might be a good idea for you to go in #peripherals-and-displays, outline how much you want to spend on the stuff, and get some better recommendations
@balmy girder Changing fans out are nearly always easy, 4 screws.
okay my budget and everything i have is great tbh
@obsidian wolf linked model above is twice the capacity and about 4-6 times the speed
uh Naed am I going crazy or is LCM not sending any messages?
Ok, I might just buy 3-4 of those fans just so they all match
2166.87
bam!
that doesnt include the mic bt the mic is 70 bucks
and the stand is 20
I don't like the peripherals in the list btw, but I'm not too knowledgeable in the stuff, that's why I think it might be a good idea for you to consult some people in #peripherals-and-displays and get an idea on if that's good, and if there's better stuff for the price. @tribal bear
most of them might be asleep by now though...
oh alright
Ghost, Naed, and Sennheiser ninja are good for audio stuff, Nachos for kbs
@balmy girder found the thingy

Thx!
I was thinking of getting a 1 tb m.2 ssd but I don’t what is the best/fastest
@eager hazel shouldn't go for the "fastest" unless you want to spending double the price for a tiny bit of real world gain :)
but anyways
A good price to performance one is the 1tb team MP34
intel or ryzen for 3080 build
not much into gaming
@onyx lava what budget
he askin me
@minor lynx what's the build for?
bit of gaming and usual work
~2,000 give or take
gaming
then don't grab a drp4
sure is
Just sayin, AMD does offer some nice options over in the Red side >:)
r7 3700x or i9 9900k for a 3080 build?
@onyx lava chill I'm making you a list
o my b
Does the amd ryzen 5 3600 come with a cooler? Im thinking of adding a liquid cooler for the look
❤️
Does the amd ryzen 5 3600 come with a cooler? Im thinking of adding a liquid cooler for the look
@balmy girder yes
it does have a stock cooler that works quite decently for a stock cooler.
so you gonna make i7 build by the way?
or
alright here
gaming, streaming, editing
Should I add that liquid freezer or just use the stock?
Yeah ig
upgrade something with the money u save 😄
I could always upgrade it later right?
Ofc
or take your women on fancy date once she gets mad at u buying all this
^
laughs in gay
man*
Also, will everything fit dimensions wise? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/kNpTb8
anyways something like this for you @onyx lava
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fn8Vq3
I could always upgrade it later right?
Also also idk why I asked this lmao
dam thanks @stoic island
what cpu fan for a i5-9400f?
gammaxx 400 if it's still at the 25$ mark
pcpartpicker?
ight
24$??
hippity hoppity hip. your comin' in my wip
Hi could anyone help me out, I reset my pc and it’s just blackscreening, sorry if this is the wrong chat
sure go ahead
I might not stay around for long but someone else might jump in after I go
MSI Z390-A PRO good enough for a i5-9400f?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cGbJCL
Everything except monitors and windows 10.
Unless you have a use for the usb 3.2 port on front io, no.
@obsidian wolf it just means that the front panel usb C connector will not work.
Unless you have a use for the usb 3.2 port on front io, no.
@stoic island asking me? bit confused rn
Yes
ah
Do you have anything you want to plug into the front io?
So like where I stick my mouse?
Do you have anything you want to plug into the front io?
@stoic island yeah
Or an USB
specifically the USB C version @obsidian wolf
oh wait
on the FRONT of the case
@minor lynx not you lel I'm tired
So i should really get another one
z390 is fine
maybe even overkill
wrong qoute
esp since you're just gonna get a locked 9400f
the whole chat is tired af
Im really out of ideas because the other ones are really expensive
I bet you I won't get off discord until like 1am even though I need sleep now
oh and ram? G.skill 3200 cl16?
Aegis 3200c16 was cheapest when I looked earlier
I'm probably gonna get off soon, just want my list looked over quick again. Thc for all the help tonight btw
@stoic island bugger off to sleep
aight
no you go get some sleep :P
bit too late for that @stoic island
Im just trying to get a really good computer for like not an above 2000 dollars
give me a couple of minutes, and i will help you @obsidian wolf
the ssd I am going for is samsung 860 evo 500gb and 1tb hdd
Gn yall, ttyl
ight
I search for it
i think i could just leave
it
is going to be fine i wont really use a C going into the computer
Yes
maybe coming out of it but no into it
video card is gonna be a gtx 1060 6gb from 2nd hand buyers
because i5 9400f with gtx 1060 6gb was a good combination back in the days
I'd get a 1650 super if possible, unless 1060 prices good and conditions good
time to open craigslist
@foggy hazel welp my mind had buggered off and it might be time to get on my bed, I'll leave this to ya for now :)
found somethin cheaper
@stoic island have a good one :)
oof
You too :)
There might also be an option of me getting bored on my bed and getting on discord again but we'll see
@stoic island shoooooooooooooo
it is future my dude. You dont need optical drive to watch movies. You can spend good cash on games but don't pretend you don't have netflix
Really loving this group 🙂
yes
being member for quite a while
but now that i wanted build my oc
pc is that i have started talking


is that jager though?
Yep
acog
But my main is Bandit
Well i prefer Gz10
19
lol
IQ is my main
Bandit is my defender main
I like iq
Reason: Bad word usage
r/34rainbow6siege
I used to do good things
with blitz and i like jager but no as much like the other 3
:V
you ever seen the r/34rainbow6siege?
||porn basically||
of rainbowsix
I can dm a photo
YES
@obsidian wolf do you have a link to your buildlist?
can i cool my cpu cooler with another cpu cooler? like stack them?
No
lmao
yep
wait
how do i get
the link
i already published
so let me see
There it is
@obsidian wolf you had 2k as the budget?
For everything
not only the pc
I need to buy Keyboard
Monitor
Seat
A new mic
Well thats kinda a yes
but i will go up to 1600
because i think i can get a good monitor
okay, let me just shuffle things around :)
Okay 🙂
How many hz u lookin for
I m not really a technician
but 3.6
should be fine
right
and it says the boost is up to 4.3
he is asking about the refresh rate on the monitor @obsidian wolf
I think he's asking about your monitor refresh rate, not CPU clock
Solid
since i heard those are good for fast movement game
such as r6
Coming from ps4
were we play at 60 fps
:V
rainbo
so i really trying to look that improvement, you feel me?
@obsidian wolf https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CQnfsk
that is a suggestion that strips the extra silly things out
and it has usb c on the front working too :)
Keep in mind
i removed the HDD and upgraded the SSD
i also put in a placeholder GPU
and the 500 is basically an estimate
:V
Ok I'll keep looking to your build
because im fact you know a lot more than me
THX THOUGH AGAIN
:)
you are very welcome :)
now, try and figure out all the "rest" of the things you need
because that gives you a proper idea about what your actual budget IS
:)
THX MEN
HAVE A GOOD NIGHT
Well day depending
:V
Good night/ day / noon for everyone see yall tomorrow!
:) likewise :)
I have a question what cpu pair better with the 1650 super the ryzen 3 3300x or the ryzen 5 2600
depends on the price. Both are quite good, tho both are almost always overpriced due to stock.
So I'm not sure if it my ram or my motherboard that needs replacing
You have two sticks? Try one at a time and see if whatever the issue you are having goes away :)
I tried
And I tried placing them in different slots
Sometimes it works, most times they don't
This only happens if I restart or turn my desktop off
@potent prairie
@tribal bear you can get a b450
what is that?
oh
I've heard good things about them
I got a cheap combo off of amazon
The company is called mamba
Some Chinese/Japanese off brand company
i got the mat and headphone stand
Cost me $20 for wireless rgb mouse/keyboard combo
Only thing I'd change is the motherboard
Go down to a b450, half the price
Similar priced b450s also come with built in wifi (some of them)
I have an Asus rog Strix b450-f
Cost me $129
Cheapest which is Gigabyte D3SH is around $59
Looks good, I believe msi has cheaper, but no built in speakers or LEDs
@little osprey you forgot to tell @tribal bear what he potentially looses out on with a chipset downgrade.
Not much for a 5 3600
@tribal bear also, i seem to recall the list mr1111 made for you had a 3700x on it?
@little osprey you are locking him in to being stuck on zen2 (most likely)
its chipset wide
just because it might not be something you worry about, does not mean you should not inform others about it
Now see, I was never informed about that. I've been told that it would be recommeded to get a b550 when getting a 7 or higher, but never was I told that
yes?
Everytime my computer shuts off or restarts it won't read my RAM unless I move them from one slot to another
Sometimes it takes me half an hour to get it to boot
you got a usb stick that is empty?
No, why?
memtest86 requires one to run
memtest86, you generally test the sticks one at a time
Ok
Actually I do
I recently bought a 32gb one
Memorex 32gb
Now I just need to boot up my pc
https://www.memtest86.com/ <- here is the link
you dont need the PRO version
Yippy
so it is free to use
memtest takes a good deal longer than that normally
:)
And windows is doing it's memory check
That works
I spent the last 3 days trying to determine which needs replacing
@foggy hazel memory test complete, went to restart again, yellow light on my Mobo lit up, did not boot
Yellow light equals dram issue
just exchange the ram completely
Replace them?
if even the mainboard is complaining, then there is no need for memtest86
generally just replacing them is the easiest
Thermaltake 500w smart and Asus rog Strix b450-f
My psu and mobo are working fine
Only the ram is having issues
RMA the ram
?
Return the ram to the vendor that sold it to you
Smart 😭
Ahh
because that is NOT normal
Yeah kinda figured
I almost want to leave a review about this
I mean adata, especially the xpg line, are supposed to be some decent quality RAM
I'm surprised my psu outlasted my RAM 😂😂
if you get hit by a drop of rain. Are you also going to leave a review about it?
If you want I can dm a picture of the ram pins
No damage to them?
Burnt?
no!
From overvoltage
a power supply that is not "stable" can cause ram to behave very weirdly
If it's not stable wouldn't other parts also behave weirdly?
RAM generally "reacts" first
Ahh
but again, time will tell
I've had a few issues with a couple fans, but they did that out of the box no matter where I put them or which case fan pin slot they went into
But that is the only other issue I've had
Anyone mind if they could make a parts list for a pc that can stream, game and edit 1440p videos, I would like to stay at my budget of 2000 aud for the pc
@marsh kiln aud lol
I have a lot of other issues with the list but that's a start
Way overpriced board
4x8 3200c16 just doesn't make sense here
250gb ssd in a 2000$ build come on
anything i can update in my build currently? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bWR7Dx my budget for upgrades is around $1000
@marsh kiln wdym
What about a 150$ x570-p
What about a 160$ x570 plus
What about a 180$ x570 plus wifi
....
So you don't trust Asus?
asus tuf x570 is good
