prisma stag
#

naed would u reccomend chaning ram or changing case

foggy hazel
#

ram

little osprey
#

It looks fine

foggy hazel
#

but, as mentioned, technically what you have will work

prisma stag
#

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

foggy hazel
#

keep it

prisma stag
#

guys i was having way more fun buying all the parts for this build then i am actually building it

viral ore
#

darn

#

how many hours have you spend building so far

prisma stag
#

4 hours

#

i got question guys

#

good way to straighten a pin that i bent back?

foggy hazel
#

depending on where it is, flat headed screwdriver

prisma stag
#

top right on that connector

#

see it?

little osprey
#

Flat head screwdriver

#

Needle nose pliers

#

@prisma stag took me 8 hours in 2 days to do mine

prisma stag
#

what is that , that i just broke?

little osprey
#

?

prisma stag
#

see that pin i bent?

#

pull up the image

little osprey
#

I think it's for the mobos power

#

Could be wrong

#

Did it come with a manual?

prisma stag
#

yea

little osprey
#

Might want to check that

#

I can't be 100% certain but it looks like the Mobo power port for mine

prisma stag
#

manual says usb 3.2 connectors

#

hell i dont need that LMFAO

#

im just gonna act like it never happened

little osprey
#

😂😂

prisma stag
#

now i know tho, this crap breaks ez

little osprey
#

Oh yeah pins are brittle

#

Be glad you didn't do that to your cpu

foggy hazel
#

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 :)

little osprey
#

Ahhh

prisma stag
#

woot woot

little osprey
#

You're doing it the smart way fyi@prisma stag

prisma stag
#

why you say that?

#

breaking the little things?

#

lol

little osprey
#

When I did mine I assembled my mobo first and then put it in the case

prisma stag
#

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

muted wasp
#

That is a onboard usb header

prisma stag
#

dark

#

so im good?

#

i didnt break much??

muted wasp
#

you bent a pin

prisma stag
#

yea but i dont need usb 3 haha

muted wasp
#

so if you cannot straighten it , then you lost a onboard usb header . just make sure its not touching another pin

keen depot
#

Oh damn

#

That hurts

#

To look at

prisma stag
#

im asking is losing usb 3 a big deal?

keen depot
#

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

earnest olive
#

@granite imp may i ask what fans you used in your build pic?

muted wasp
#

normally you would hook up the front panel usb ports to those

keen depot
#

So that you don't plug something in and it won't work

prisma stag
#

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

muted wasp
#

then it was already slightly bent or your came in at a angle

prisma stag
#

so we gucci, unless something else is gonna use usb 3

muted wasp
#

there ya go

#

put a piece of electrical tape over it and move on

prisma stag
#

my man

#

with the power plays

keen depot
#

Yeah

#

Usb 3 cables are ugly anyway

prisma stag
#

now lets hope i dont break any 3080 pins

#

wish me luck

muted wasp
#

Hey @prisma stag checkthepins

prisma stag
#

yea lol

#

i need to just stop trying to guess where crap goes

#

$300 mobo and i already broke part of it hehe

little osprey
#

@prisma stag USE THE MANUAL

#

Manuals are you're best friend

granite imp
#

@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.

earnest olive
#

ah interesting i was just curious cause i've never seen them before

foggy hazel
#

you shill @granite imp :P

granite imp
#

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. 😂😂😂

foggy hazel
#

:P

granite imp
#

Saved me a good amount on my wife’s budget build not having to buy case fans or psu

earnest olive
#

6 pin?

#

like directly to psu? O_O

#

brb going to go leave a review on rtx 3090

cloud oasis
#

Buy her a 970

little osprey
#

I'm thinking of getting a raidmax psu

#

I remember seeing a 1000w gold+ for $100

whole stag
#

What model

stoic island
#

either C or D tier

#

neither sound good for a 1000w psu :P

little osprey
#

@stoic island I'm running a thermaltake smart

#

500w

#

Which is better in terms of quality? The cobra or the smart?

stoic island
#

what about neither xd

#

I mean if your smart works

little osprey
#

Lol

stoic island
#

at least you have a working one without defects

little osprey
#

It has for a month now

stoic island
#

and we can't say that about a new raidmax psu

whole stag
#

I wanna replace my tt smart with a cosair rmx

little osprey
#

No random shutoff, no surges, no sparks, no fires, nothing

stoic island
#

good

#

just hope it stays that way

zenith shore
#

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

stoic island
#

nice

#

now you know it's not that hard :P

foggy hazel
#

well done @zenith shore

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

little leaf
#

How?

tribal bear
#

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?

stoic island
#

What is 'this'

tribal bear
stoic island
#

Oh god

tribal bear
whole stag
#

Whats wrong with it?

stoic island
#

it has 5 parts

tribal bear
#
#

thats all

whole stag
#

.

stoic island
#
  1. you don't need an aftermarket cooler for 3600
#
  1. tomahawk max bad
whole stag
#

Unless you’re overclocking

stoic island
#

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

tribal bear
#

oh

#

okay what about the ryzen 5 3600 should i upgrade it?

whole stag
#

Its good

stoic island
#

I have a problem with everything but the CPU and ram.

#

:P

tribal bear
#

alright

whole stag
#

And what case are you looking at?

stoic island
#

like mx500 1tb is more expensive than a mp34 1tb

tribal bear
#

i have one

#

already bought

stoic island
#

g3 650w is overpriced rn

#

what case

tribal bear
#

let me find it

stoic island
#

if it's a NZXT H510 please return if possible xD

granite imp
#

Lmao

#

That’s what I just got my wife

stoic island
#

ye I hate suggesting it

granite imp
stoic island
#

it's just

#

everyone wants one for some reason

#

idk why

#

I hate it for having bad airflow :P

deep skiff
#

lol mr1 its not gonna cause ur gpu to blow up

whole stag
#

It has the vent in the side so technically it should be ok?

stoic island
#

technically isn't exactly great

whole stag
#

Yeah

stoic island
#

It's not something you have to give up on for but

granite imp
#

I didn’t need great airflow, it was cheap, and the looks were perfect for my wife

marsh kiln
#

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

stoic island
#

It's a "if it's still shipping, cancel order" kinda thing.

granite imp
#

She doesn’t even have a gpu, not gunna get too hot

stoic island
#

wheee list making time

tribal bear
#

is this good?

stoic island
#

that's fine

granite imp
#

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.

stoic island
#

@tribal bear what's total budget

tribal bear
#

1500

stoic island
#

bruh

#

including monitor+m+kb+headset?

tribal bear
#

na

#

thats the parts

stoic island
#

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

tribal bear
#

i dont know

stoic island
#

Need wifi?

tribal bear
#

no

#

i might

stoic island
#

You got ethernet or wifi

tribal bear
#

what ever is better

whole stag
#

What are you using?

tribal bear
#

right now im using a laptop

#

i have never built a pc before

whole stag
#

Oh

tribal bear
#

i have no idea what im doing

balmy girder
stoic island
#

we'll work it out as we go

tribal bear
#

okay

stoic island
#

@balmy girder interesting fan config to say the least lol

#

Bad storage all around

balmy girder
#

Yeah idk much about what I'm doing lmao

stoic island
#

I'll make some edits rq

tribal bear
#

that would be everything i need right?

#

parts wise

stoic island
#

Yes, but let's talk it through first.

zenith shore
#

@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

stoic island
#

When are you building?

tribal bear
#

okay

#

in 3 months

cloud oasis
#

Get zen 3

balmy girder
#

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.

stoic island
#

yea you should come back again in about a month after zen 3 releases

cloud oasis
#

And wait for x670 mobo

stoic island
#

@balmy girder need wifi? and total budget?

#

@cloud oasis no reason to, no extra future support.

whole stag
#

You dont need to fill all the fan slots as that may disrupt airflow

stoic island
#

It's the fans being 16$ a piece that's interesting xD

#

but anyways

#

I'm making some renovations to that list >:)

balmy girder
#

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

tribal bear
#

monitors is there anything i should get?

stoic island
#

But @tribal bear keep that list in mind while looking around (knowing what performance you should expect for ~1500$)

tribal bear
#

alright i will

stoic island
#

because rx580 is on a completely different level of

#

yaknow

tribal bear
#

what should i expect for 1500?

#

yea

stoic island
#

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

balmy girder
#

Wifi

tribal bear
#

my only concern is streaming good with that?

stoic island
#

Nvidia GPUs do be good for streaming

cloud oasis
#

Yes

tribal bear
#

alright

stoic island
#

and CPU in that list is subject to change once new CPUs come

balmy girder
#

And I was gonna use a 32" sony Bravia tv as a monitor, is that bad? Thought it might work

stoic island
#

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

tribal bear
#

okay

stoic island
#

@balmy girder when are you planning to build?

balmy girder
#

Not anytime soon.

#

Or in the near future

tribal bear
#

is there such thing as a horizontal monitor?

#

and 300 bucks

stoic island
#

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

balmy girder
#

Oki

#

Thxxx

#

And yeah, just looking around

stoic island
#

@tribal bear Do you mean like a monitor that can be used vertically?

balmy girder
#

I looked through everything on the original list and it all seems compatible and all should fit together

tribal bear
#

yea

foggy hazel
#

Pivot is the term you are looking for @tribal bear

stoic island
#

(might be)

foggy hazel
#

no, i am wrong

#

pivot = vertical

granite imp
#

Is kinguin a legit site to get windows keys?

tribal bear
#

so it is a thing!

foggy hazel
#

@tribal bear just about anything is a "thing" :)

stoic island
#

There's monitors that can pivot to be the other

#

I don't think there are modern monitors MADE to be vertical?

foggy hazel
#

there are, but not in consumer space

tribal bear
#

im looking for a double monitor set up

cloud oasis
#

Just invest most of ur money into a good one and get a really cheap one for second

foggy hazel
#

like that?

tribal bear
#

yea!

foggy hazel
#

monitor 1 is a pivot-able monitor

tribal bear
#

yea yea

foggy hazel
#

a lot of non-budget monitors can do that

tribal bear
#

i have 2k total and i could get 400 more if needed

stoic island
foggy hazel
#

it looks like it too based on the pictures of the hinge on the stand @stoic island

tribal bear
#

perfect!!

foggy hazel
#

however

tribal bear
#

i love it

foggy hazel
#

see the different bezel sizes?

stoic island
balmy girder
#

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?

tribal bear
#

ah yea

stoic island
#

It's fine

tribal bear
#

so i should get two right?

foggy hazel
#

those can drive you absolute bonkers depending on your personality :)

tribal bear
#

double monitor

stoic island
#

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.

balmy girder
#

Ah ok, makes sense

stoic island
#

@tribal bear there's always the option of checking out some 1440p144hz monitors :)

foggy hazel
#

there you can see them @balmy girder

tribal bear
#

alright 🙂 i am now

stoic island
#

You could do a setup of a main 1440p144hz monitor, with a side vertical 1080p monitor :)

#

I'll find and link you one rq

prisma stag
#

can someone link me some low profile ram

#

my corsair is too tall

tribal bear
#

oh cool thank you

stoic island
#

@prisma stag for what?

#

ddr4?

#

what CPU?

prisma stag
#

my cpu cooler is hitting my corsair ram

#

i need something not as tall

stoic island
#

What CPU, and what cooler?

prisma stag
#

ryzen 7 3700x and a corsair h100i also mounted on my msi x570 procarbon wifi inside my TD500 Mesh case

stoic island
#

(I'm guessing G.skill aegis is good, but best to have all the info before I start spamming out links :)

foggy hazel
#

its not "tallness"

stoic island
#

wait H100i is gonna hit your ram?

prisma stag
#

yes it is naed

foggy hazel
#

its width that is the problem

stoic island
#

Can't you just mount the cooler with tubes to the left? :P

foggy hazel
#

the ram he has sticks about a mile up towards the edge of the part

stoic island
#

oh what?

foggy hazel
#

its the fans @stoic island

stoic island
#

ohhh

#

Ripjaws probably works

prisma stag
stoic island
#

tallness and width it seems

prisma stag
#

that doesnt look bad i know but trust me that is alot of pressure on em

foggy hazel
#

its the width that is the problem here

prisma stag
#

i had to force it in there

stoic island
#

Naed, you know a kit like Aegis but 3600c16?

#

I only see aegis up to 3200c16

foggy hazel
#

at the top of my head? no

tribal bear
#

so is the video card not released yet?

stoic island
#

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.

prisma stag
#

wait

#

naed

tribal bear
#

alright cool

prisma stag
#

i wouldnt hurt anything if i just took a sander to the side of the fan would i

tribal bear
#

thank you so much @stoic island

#

this seems so cool!

prisma stag
#

i could just grind the side of the fan couldnt i?

foggy hazel
#

@prisma stag there is a RGB ring in that iirc

stoic island
#

@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

tribal bear
#

oh alright

stoic island
#

they're just out of stock like everywhere right now

tribal bear
#

if i cant find it

#

is there something i can replace it with

stoic island
#

Well, it's an amazing GPU for the price, that's why it's sold out everywhere right now lel

foggy hazel
#

aye, that can solve it

tribal bear
stoic island
#

Yea, I can defend my choices if you got questions.

balmy girder
tribal bear
#

okay

stoic island
#

@balmy girder cases? the TD500 mesh

#

I had it in your list I think lol

balmy girder
#

Ye, im just looking at other stuff

tribal bear
#

what operating system do i need

stoic island
#

Windows 10. Don't buy the 110$ retail key, 5$ key off eBay works just as well :)

tribal bear
#

oh alright

lime forge
#

i love the meshify c

stoic island
#

Well of course, if you like Linux, definitely go Linux if you wanted to.

lime forge
#

i recommend it, 9/10

stoic island
#

The geometric shapes is pretty limited to just TD500 mesh and Meshify C afaik.

tribal bear
#

i have never tried it

#

and should i get a cpu cooler?

stoic island
#

It's interesting to get into, I wouldn't suggest starting off with it if you have never tried it

tribal bear
#

okay

stoic island
#

Stock cooler works fine, you can get a 30$ decent cooler down the line if you don't like the noise.

tribal bear
#

could i look up videos to see what its all about

#

linux

stoic island
#

Sure, why not.

lime forge
#

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

stoic island
#

Yea it's a great case

#

so is TD500 mesh tho >:D

balmy girder
#

Idk which to pick omg

#

I like both

stoic island
#

td500 mesh comes with 3 fans, meshify c comes with 2 >:)

balmy girder
#

But the mesh c looks more modern-ish

eager heart
#

i'm most likely going for the mesh c for my build

stoic island
eager heart
#

just the simplicity of it i like better

stoic island
#

white looks even better imo

whole stag
#

How much money you willing to spend on a case

stoic island
#

but yea

#

your choice :)

eager heart
#

white c:

balmy girder
#

$100, and I want a black one if possible

stoic island
#

both are good cases

#

I go black td500 mesh as a one-case-fits-all for my lists :P

#

it's just really nice

balmy girder
#

I've been looking at the mesh c for awhile, so I think I'm gonna go with it

stoic island
#

Yea, nothing wrong with it, could add another fan or two in the front

#

no need to fill it out tho

balmy girder
#

Idk what it is about the td500 but I don't really like it.

little leaf
#

I don't either

glacial cove
#

Ryzen 5 3600 and 1660 super a good combo?

stoic island
#

that's fine

#

I just love it

little leaf
#

fine

prisma stag
#

if u go td500 u might run into cpu cooler fitting problems like me

balmy girder
#

Ah, how many should I add then? Comes with 2

little leaf
#

td500 looks trash imo

stoic island
#

?

#

:P

whole stag
#

P500A ❤️

stoic island
#

I'd say 2

#

for 3 in front 1 in back

balmy girder
#

And alot of ppl have said that a liquid cooler is useless, but I want it for the astectic lmao

stoic island
#

It's useless for the relative pricing

#

it's not useless in terms of performance

#

just not great pricing

cloud oasis
#

Get arctic liquid freezer

stoic island
#

@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

cloud oasis
#

Only like 100-130

stoic island
#

Yes liquid freezer ii is great

tribal bear
#

here i saw linux and it seems really complex

balmy girder
#

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

stoic island
#

Private list.

lyric thistle
#

You don't need any extra fans

tribal bear
#

oh shoot sorry

stoic island
#

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

lyric thistle
#

Widnows love_it

tribal bear
#

okay

#

ill be with windows

stoic island
#

no 212evo plz

balmy girder
#

2 front, 1 back, any on top or bottom?

stoic island
#

and no need for 110$ windows 10

#

3 front 1 back is standard setup usually

tribal bear
#

i know i just dont want to forget it

stoic island
#

you can set custom prices

#

just slap on a 5$

eager heart
#

ez

tribal bear
#

oh really sick okay

lyric thistle
#

Reality can bend to your will

stoic island
#

and if you REALLY wanted a cheap cpu cooler, gammaxx 400

lyric thistle
#

inspect elements prison sentence to 10 minutes

stoic island
#

I don't like 212 evo :(

lyric thistle
#

Why not?

#

Too much money?

tribal bear
#

wait how do i slap 5 bucks on it

eager heart
#
  • Add custom part
stoic island
tribal bear
#

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.

stoic island
#

honestly

#

don't need aftermarket cpu cooler

#

stock on Ryzen is good enough

lyric thistle
#

Brrr

junior crescent
#

Would someone mind if they could make a pc part list for a streaming and gaming pc for 1600 australian that can also edit

lyric thistle
#

Og I thought you were saying bare no cooler Mr1 lol

#

Smh now you edited it smhsmhsmh

balmy girder
#

What's the difference between the g.skill ripjaw and oloy? I compared them and there exactly the same besides price

tribal bear
#

with network adaptors should i get one

stoic island
#

why do you need one? didn't you say you're using ethernet?

#

@balmy girder brand.

balmy girder
#

Ah

stoic island
#

I don't see oloy ram priced decenty for 3600mhz cl16 so

tribal bear
#

should i get one i dont want to use the internet for my pc

stoic island
#

no

#

it's for wifi if your board doesn't have wifi built in

tribal bear
#

oh alright

#

so what i have is all i need for parts?

#

For storage should I also add a mechanical drive along with the team mp34 ssd u added?

stoic island
#

depends on how much you need

#

512gb ssd + 2tb hdd is a standard storage setup

stoic island
#

looks about right

tribal bear
#

awsome!

balmy girder
#

Wnats the difference between ssd and m.2?

tribal bear
#

about a keyboard and mouse should i just pick one

obsidian wolf
lyric thistle
#

M.2 is a connector type

obsidian wolf
#

I add it

stoic island
#

@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

balmy girder
#

Ah

stoic island
#

"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.

balmy girder
#

I'll look at monitors later on

stoic island
#

that hdd

#

please no

balmy girder
#

Oh? What should I change it to

lyric thistle
#

Lol

stoic island
#

@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

balmy girder
#

Ah didn't notice it was 36, thought it was 32.

stoic island
#

yea I said "there were no oloy kits reasonbly priced at 3600c16"

#

anyways

#

PSU can be better

foggy hazel
#

@obsidian wolf please dont use that one. You are paying double for no reason.

stoic island
#

Fans are overpriced per fan imo.

#

and for the hard drive

#

just get a Barracuda 2tb

obsidian wolf
#

So whicj one i should buy?

onyx lava
#

i9 9900k or ryzen 7 3700x for rtx3080 build?

obsidian wolf
#

@foggy hazel ??

balmy girder
#

Ok

stoic island
balmy girder
#

Thxx

#

Where the additional fan going? On the front next to the other one?

stoic island
#

front

stoic island
#

gawd damn 200$ webcam?

onyx lava
#

streamer man

tribal bear
#

of course

whole stag
#

Guess so

prisma stag
balmy girder
#

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

prisma stag
#

i think this will be my next build

stoic island
#

I'm 95% sure P12 is better

#

they're amazing fans

#

ah yes dual AIOs :)

tribal bear
#

im getting a mic too

stoic island
#

600g of paste

balmy girder
#

How hard would it he to change out the fans that came with the case?

tribal bear
#

its the iceball plug and play

prisma stag
#

lol

#

look at the ups

stoic island
#

@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

stoic island
#

@balmy girder Changing fans out are nearly always easy, 4 screws.

tribal bear
#

okay my budget and everything i have is great tbh

foggy hazel
#

@obsidian wolf linked model above is twice the capacity and about 4-6 times the speed

stoic island
#

uh Naed am I going crazy or is LCM not sending any messages?

balmy girder
#

Ok, I might just buy 3-4 of those fans just so they all match

stoic island
#

P12 has a 5 pack you can buy

#

lemme find it

tribal bear
#

2166.87

#

bam!

#

that doesnt include the mic bt the mic is 70 bucks

#

and the stand is 20

stoic island
#

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...

tribal bear
#

oh alright

stoic island
#

Ghost, Naed, and Sennheiser ninja are good for audio stuff, Nachos for kbs

balmy girder
#

Thx!

eager hazel
#

I was thinking of getting a 1 tb m.2 ssd but I don’t what is the best/fastest

balmy girder
stoic island
#

@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

minor lynx
#

?

onyx lava
#

intel or ryzen for 3080 build

minor lynx
#

not much into gaming

stoic island
#

@onyx lava what budget

Just sayin, AMD does offer some nice options over in the Red side >:)

onyx lava

stoic island
#

@onyx lava chill I'm making you a list

onyx lava
#

o my b

balmy girder
#

Does the amd ryzen 5 3600 come with a cooler? Im thinking of adding a liquid cooler for the look

onyx lava
#

❤️

minor lynx
#

Does the amd ryzen 5 3600 come with a cooler? Im thinking of adding a liquid cooler for the look
@balmy girder yes

stoic island
#

it does have a stock cooler that works quite decently for a stock cooler.

minor lynx
#

so you gonna make i7 build by the way?

#

or

#

alright here

#

gaming, streaming, editing

balmy girder
#

Should I add that liquid freezer or just use the stock?

stoic island
#

Stock is always better for the price of free :P

#

extra 100$ is quite a bit yaknow

balmy girder
#

Yeah ig

prisma stag
#

upgrade something with the money u save 😄

foggy hazel
#

think about it like this.

#

its another 1 tb ssd

balmy girder
#

I could always upgrade it later right?

stoic island
#

Ofc

prisma stag
#

or take your women on fancy date once she gets mad at u buying all this

onyx lava

balmy girder
#

laughs in gay

prisma stag

I might not stay around for long but someone else might jump in after I go

obsidian wolf
#

Thx

#

Naed

#

but know

#

is this really an issue?

minor lynx
#

MSI Z390-A PRO good enough for a i5-9400f?

balmy girder
stoic island
#

Unless you have a use for the usb 3.2 port on front io, no.

foggy hazel
#

@obsidian wolf it just means that the front panel usb C connector will not work.

minor lynx
#

Unless you have a use for the usb 3.2 port on front io, no.
@stoic island asking me? bit confused rn

stoic island
#

Yes

minor lynx
#

ah

stoic island
#

Do you have anything you want to plug into the front io?

obsidian wolf
#

So like where I stick my mouse?

minor lynx
#

Do you have anything you want to plug into the front io?
@stoic island yeah

obsidian wolf
#

Or an USB

foggy hazel
#

specifically the USB C version @obsidian wolf

stoic island
#

oh wait

foggy hazel
#

on the FRONT of the case

stoic island
#

@minor lynx not you lel I'm tired

obsidian wolf
#

So i should really get another one

stoic island
#

z390 is fine

minor lynx
#

So i should really get another one
@obsidian wolf oof

#

thanks

stoic island
#

maybe even overkill

minor lynx
#

wrong qoute

stoic island
#

esp since you're just gonna get a locked 9400f

obsidian wolf
#

Lol its ok

#

Which recomendation for motherboard

minor lynx
#

the whole chat is tired af

obsidian wolf
#

Im really out of ideas because the other ones are really expensive

stoic island
#

I bet you I won't get off discord until like 1am even though I need sleep now

minor lynx
#

oh and ram? G.skill 3200 cl16?

stoic island
#

Aegis 3200c16 was cheapest when I looked earlier

balmy girder
#

I'm probably gonna get off soon, just want my list looked over quick again. Thc for all the help tonight btw

foggy hazel
#

@stoic island bugger off to sleep

minor lynx
#

aight

stoic island
#

it works if you want 3200mhz

#

no naed :(

foggy hazel
#

shooo!

#

@obsidian wolf do you actually NEED a x570 board?

stoic island
#

no you go get some sleep :P

foggy hazel
#

bit too late for that @stoic island

obsidian wolf
#

Im just trying to get a really good computer for like not an above 2000 dollars

foggy hazel
#

give me a couple of minutes, and i will help you @obsidian wolf

minor lynx
#

the ssd I am going for is samsung 860 evo 500gb and 1tb hdd

stoic island

balmy girder
#

Gn yall, ttyl

stoic island

#

stoic island
#

Yes

obsidian wolf
#

maybe coming out of it but no into it

minor lynx
#

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

stoic island
#

I'd get a 1650 super if possible, unless 1060 prices good and conditions good

minor lynx
#

time to open craigslist

stoic island
#

@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 :)

minor lynx
#

minor lynx
#

oof

#

bye mr1111

obsidian wolf

stoic island

There might also be an option of me getting bored on my bed and getting on discord again but we'll see

foggy hazel
#

@stoic island shoooooooooooooo

minor lynx
#

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

obsidian wolf

Kinda thic

foggy hazel
#

@obsidian wolf do you have a link to your buildlist?

prisma stag
#

can i cool my cpu cooler with another cpu cooler? like stack them?

whole stag
#

No

vague willow
#

lmao

obsidian wolf
#

yep

#

wait

#

how do i get

#

the link

#

i already published

#

so let me see

#

There it is

foggy hazel
#

@obsidian wolf you had 2k as the budget?

obsidian wolf
#

For everything

#

not only the pc

#

I need to buy Keyboard

#

Monitor

#

Seat

#

A new mic

foggy hazel
#

okay

#

so, realistically, 1400 absolute max

obsidian wolf
#

Well thats kinda a yes

#

but i will go up to 1600

#

because i think i can get a good monitor

foggy hazel
#

okay, let me just shuffle things around :)

obsidian wolf
#

Okay 🙂

cloud oasis
#

How many hz u lookin for

obsidian wolf
#

I m not really a technician

#

but 3.6

#

should be fine

#

right

#

and it says the boost is up to 4.3

foggy hazel
#

he is asking about the refresh rate on the monitor @obsidian wolf

potent prairie
#

I think he's asking about your monitor refresh rate, not CPU clock

obsidian wolf
#

OH

#

:vvvvv

#

144

#

i think

potent prairie
#

Solid

obsidian wolf
#

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?

foggy hazel
#

that is a suggestion that strips the extra silly things out

#

and it has usb c on the front working too :)

obsidian wolf
#

THX MEM

#

🙂

foggy hazel
#

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

obsidian wolf
#

:V

#

Ok I'll keep looking to your build

#

because im fact you know a lot more than me

#

THX THOUGH AGAIN

foggy hazel
#

:)

#

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

#

:)

obsidian wolf
#

THX MEN

#

HAVE A GOOD NIGHT

#

Well day depending

#

:V

#

Good night/ day / noon for everyone see yall tomorrow!

foggy hazel
#

:) likewise :)

eager hazel
#

I have a question what cpu pair better with the 1650 super the ryzen 3 3300x or the ryzen 5 2600

cursive wharf
#

depends on the price. Both are quite good, tho both are almost always overpriced due to stock.

little osprey
#

So I'm not sure if it my ram or my motherboard that needs replacing

potent prairie
#

You have two sticks? Try one at a time and see if whatever the issue you are having goes away :)

little osprey
#

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

little osprey
#

@tribal bear you can get a b450

tribal bear
#

what is that?

little osprey
#

Motherboard type

#

Like how you have a b550

tribal bear
#

oh

little osprey
#

You can go down to a b450

#

It'll still work

tribal bear
#

okay

#

is the keyboard and mouse i found good?

little osprey
#

I've heard good things about them

#

I got a cheap combo off of amazon

#

The company is called mamba

tribal bear
#

ah

#

i like corsair

little osprey
#

Some Chinese/Japanese off brand company

tribal bear
#

i got the mat and headphone stand

little osprey
#

Cost me $20 for wireless rgb mouse/keyboard combo

tribal bear
#

oh nice

#

i think this is a good setup for streaming

little osprey
#

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

tribal bear
#

alright sounds good

#

how are the monitors

little osprey
#

Looks good, I believe msi has cheaper, but no built in speakers or LEDs

foggy hazel
#

@little osprey you forgot to tell @tribal bear what he potentially looses out on with a chipset downgrade.

little osprey
#

Not much for a 5 3600

foggy hazel
#

@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)

little osprey
#

I didn't tell him WHICH to get

#

Just gave him a few examples

foggy hazel
#

its chipset wide

#

just because it might not be something you worry about, does not mean you should not inform others about it

little osprey
#

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

foggy hazel
#

its not new news

#

and now you know.

little osprey
#

👌

#

Hey naed since you're here......

#

I'm having a few RAM issues

foggy hazel
#

yes?

little osprey
#

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

foggy hazel
#

you got a usb stick that is empty?

little osprey
#

No, why?

foggy hazel
#

memtest86 requires one to run

little osprey
#

Ah

#

I tried to run the windows version but that requires a restart

foggy hazel
#

memtest86, you generally test the sticks one at a time

little osprey
#

Ok

#

Actually I do

#

I recently bought a 32gb one

#

Memorex 32gb

#

Now I just need to boot up my pc

foggy hazel
#

you dont need the PRO version

little osprey
#

Yippy

foggy hazel
#

so it is free to use

little osprey
#

Time for a nother half hour of messing with my RAM

#

🎉🎉

foggy hazel
#

memtest takes a good deal longer than that normally

little osprey
#

I meant to get my desktop to boot up properly

#

HEY first try

foggy hazel
#

:)

little osprey
#

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

foggy hazel
#

just exchange the ram completely

little osprey
#

Replace them?

foggy hazel
#

if even the mainboard is complaining, then there is no need for memtest86

#

generally just replacing them is the easiest

little osprey
#

Ok, ordered new RAM

#

My current ones didn't even last a month

foggy hazel
#

what psu are you using?

#

and what mainboard?

#

because that is NOT normal

little osprey
#

Thermaltake 500w smart and Asus rog Strix b450-f

#

My psu and mobo are working fine

#

Only the ram is having issues

foggy hazel
#

RMA the ram

little osprey
#

?

foggy hazel
#

Return the ram to the vendor that sold it to you

lyric thistle
#

Smart 😭

little osprey
#

Ahh

foggy hazel
#

because that is NOT normal

little osprey
#

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 😂😂

foggy hazel
#

if you get hit by a drop of rain. Are you also going to leave a review about it?

little osprey
#

Probably

#

What do you mean by drop of rain?

foggy hazel
#

consider that you dont know what is actually wrong

#

you think you know

little osprey
#

If you want I can dm a picture of the ram pins

foggy hazel
#

but you dont know yet

#

and what would the ram pins show?

little osprey
#

No damage to them?

foggy hazel
#

ofc there is no damage to the pins

#

why would there be damage to the pins?

little osprey
#

Burnt?

foggy hazel
#

no!

little osprey
#

From overvoltage

foggy hazel
#

no!

#

where the heck are you getting your information from?

little osprey
#

I'm guessing

#

I've NEVER had this issue before

foggy hazel
#

a power supply that is not "stable" can cause ram to behave very weirdly

little osprey
#

If it's not stable wouldn't other parts also behave weirdly?

foggy hazel
#

RAM generally "reacts" first

little osprey
#

Ahh

foggy hazel
#

but again, time will tell

little osprey
#

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

junior crescent
#

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

stoic island
#

@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

little osprey
stoic island
#

@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?

ripe wedge
#

asus tuf x570 is good

stoic island
#

Ikr

"cheapest" 270$ motherboard
