aye, its easy to overlook, so dont feel bad about it @frosty ginkgo :)

frosty ginkgo Oct 11, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

One more question. I see the list of supported RAM goes up to 16 GB does that mean my board and take that much?

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

i would read that as the TOTAL amount is 16

#

meaning, 2 sticks of 8

Hello, I'm looking for a pc to do video and graphic design. I'm looking for a desktop and was wondering if one I found would be a good fit.. newegg told me to post on here. https://www.newegg.com/p/1VK-001E-40540?&quicklink=true

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:39 PM

#

thats wayyyy over priced

#

that should be a $1000 system ish

#

its only marked up higher cuz 10th gen cpu

#

actually maybe a $1200 system

#

cuz 32gb

void creek Oct 11, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

Do you have any recommendations? I was interested in this one because costco has it for 1250

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:41 PM

#

ah so you can get it for 1250 at costco?

#

thats not as bad then

#

but for creators id recommend using an amd cpu

#

ill see if I can find any good ones within the 1200 range

void creek Oct 11, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Yes. But I'm not sure if its the right computer for design. I'm looking for some tech guidance.

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

do you care if it looks gamery?

void creek Oct 11, 2020, 5:42 PM

#

Nope. As long as it gets the job done

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:43 PM

#

@void creek to give you a comparison point

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NvsmGq

System Builder

#

that is "equal" is to the build you linked

#

(add 70-ish usd for the psu i forgot)

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

so basically the oem makes like $90

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

aye

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:44 PM

#

but not actually cuz they buy bulk

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

well, their parts a slightly cheaper still

#

@void creek which programs will you be using?

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

https://www.newegg.com/abs-computer-technologies-ala201/p/N82E16883102972?

#

for creators id recommend something like this

#

there is also one with a 2070 super but its $150 more ish

void creek Oct 11, 2020, 5:46 PM

#

Adobe creative suite- premiere, after effects, illustrator, audition etc.

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:47 PM

#

but amd is releasing new processors soon so it may be a good idea to wait until those drop and the new processors can be put into prebuilt computers

it didn't go in

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

did they hammer it in?

little leaf Oct 11, 2020, 5:48 PM

#

and he turned it on

#

like half of it was in

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

ah, so "contact to pins" and then he added power

#

hm, fair enough

#

that does burn a slot

ripe wedge Oct 11, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

thats an F

little leaf Oct 11, 2020, 5:49 PM

its fine I don't need more than 16

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:49 PM

#

keep in mind @little leaf the board itself might be REALLY wonky

little leaf Oct 11, 2020, 5:50 PM

I've been using it

#

seems to work fine

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 5:50 PM

@void creek before you ask, yes, their numbers are trustworthy enough

they take that testing of theirs very seriously

So I'm planning to loan my pc to a close friend while I'm at basic/school for Navy. However I will be replacing the motherboard from a b450 to a b550 as the ram slots are becoming faulty. Will there be any software issues that I may encounter?

#

Basic/school will be 2-3 years so I'm getting a b550 in case he wishes to upgrade cpu in that time

It shouldn’t be a problem unless your RGB softwares don’t sync up

Well I'm running asus rog strix rgb software

IF its just a normal case, and not some random custom case that is wired in some frankenstein way, then there is no problem @quiet cloak

@foggy hazel it is the Lian Li Lancool 2

Would standoffs act as a barrier..?

Yea I'm probably overthinking it

there is no need to act as a barrier as such

quiet cloak Oct 11, 2020, 10:07 PM

@foggy hazel wait what are standoffs?

#

Did they come in my box or something?

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 10:08 PM

if what you are worrying about was something to actually worry about. @quiet cloak would already have Einstein hair @stoic island

you case has feet and the mainboard itself is ON standoffs

Motherboard you mean?

I already got a anti static wrist strap I need a mat though since it’s all metal

stoic island Oct 11, 2020, 10:10 PM

So it doesn't stay around from usual movements?

quiet cloak Oct 11, 2020, 10:10 PM

Well the middle part is wood but the legs and everything that connects it is metal

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 10:10 PM

you dont "need" a mat.

quiet cloak Oct 11, 2020, 10:11 PM

What about the fan thingys?

stoic island Oct 11, 2020, 10:13 PM

Build basically everything out of case then put it in near the end

quiet cloak Oct 11, 2020, 10:13 PM

#

I thought I had to put the fan thingy in last though?

#

Umm I forgot the name

#

The graphics card yes that’s the name

foggy hazel Oct 11, 2020, 10:14 PM

#

build outside the case, test boot it outside the case

mellow basalt Oct 11, 2020, 10:15 PM

Usually people do put the graphics card in last

#

Well not last put do everything on the motherboard then put it in the case

#

Then put the graphics card thingy in

#

@quiet cloak you got a lot of people in here that’ll help you build it most people in here are very good at this so you can ask anyone and you already got 2 good people helping you out rn and naed doesn’t mind getting pinged

For swapping GPU's would I just need to download DDU and hit "Clean and Shutdown" and then swap in my new GPU and download the drivers when I restart it?

yea

but the X73 has lower rpm

so possible that by raising the fan rpm a bit it could reach the same perf

stoic island Oct 12, 2020, 2:08 AM

#

@ripe wedge it's noise normalised

you know that right

ripe wedge Oct 12, 2020, 2:08 AM

cuz the artic cooler was 1100

stoic island Oct 12, 2020, 2:08 AM

the specific RPMs are there for a reason

ripe wedge Oct 12, 2020, 2:08 AM

o whats that mean

stoic island Oct 12, 2020, 2:09 AM

so they get all the different coolers to be at the same sound pressure level

ah

Building My DREAM Gaming PC! - RTX 3090 + i9-10900k

In this video, I build my new monster PC and try out in Fortnite to see how many frames I get. This is basically my ultimate dream PC
build that I've been wanting to upgrade to for a while now. It includes a RTX 3090, an i9-10900k, 64GB of RAM, and an insanely cool AIO
liquid...

#

Imagine getting a 3090 and a 10900k for fortnite

#

Worst part. Imagine what them temps finna look like

#

RIP little 3090 running at 90c

#

*proceeds to call an 8700 and 1070ti not enough for fortnite while also getting 300fps * 😂

#

I swear youtubers are hilarious to watch

foggy hazel Oct 12, 2020, 1:01 PM

#

well, that particular one has you commenting on it here.

#

so in that regard, they did a good job (from their POV that is)

olive kraken Oct 12, 2020, 1:05 PM

Yeah, I mean I'm not hating to each its own. It just makes me laugh when they say things like. Yeah I got a 3090 for fortnite at 1080p 😂

foggy hazel Oct 12, 2020, 1:12 PM

for less money you can get a better case

a lot better

2 more cores

foggy hazel Oct 12, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

basically, go with 3700x IF you want a CPU that at least has a chance to follow along with the next gen consoles

stoic island Oct 12, 2020, 5:55 PM

#

Would 3700x be higher or lower binned silicon compared to 3600x? Prob doesn't matter

sharp bear Oct 12, 2020, 5:59 PM

#

so this would be better build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/2jhdCz ?

4+4 stuff yea

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:47 AM

#

Ok

#

How can I wire it so that way it reaches but it's still neat

#

Because there is a slot above but it doesn't reach for me to plug it in

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:50 AM

#

ya don't >:)

#

who cares about cable management

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:51 AM

#

Hmm

#

That's a good point

#

But

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:51 AM

#

tho you can usually route it around the left side

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:51 AM

#

Ah ok

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:52 AM

if there's no good space behind the motherboard

That's as far as it reaches

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:53 AM

#

hm

#

that's a rip

#

barely doesn't reach

#

try tugging it a bit more

#

maybe

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:54 AM

#

I can try

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:54 AM

#

and then try to plug it in

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:54 AM

#

So

#

I can it far

#

📎 20201012_205451.jpg

#

The problem is bending it around

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:55 AM

yea you should be able to bend it to plug it in

#

yellow cables sus

:P

@stoic island I have a question that u could answer quick prolly

how can you tell which one is the cpu one

is it far right?

think that looks like a 4+4

yea

bit hard to tell

but lemme try to make an outline

ripe wedge Oct 13, 2020, 12:56 AM

#

yea I see its a 4+4 now

I was confused earlier looking at it lol

it's thicc compared to others

ripe wedge Oct 13, 2020, 12:57 AM

yea

I was worried they looked the same for a bit lol

#

was worried might accidentally use a pcie one instead cpu

lol

#

now I know for sure that wont happen

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:58 AM

#

lol

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:58 AM

#

I'ma try bending it and I'll let you know how it goes

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 12:59 AM

#

yea

#

it should bend fine

#

just take a bit of effort

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 12:59 AM

#

Alr

#

Would it break the system if I were to make it split and do half and half

#

So 4 in one of the things and four in the other

stoic island Oct 13, 2020, 1:02 AM

#

Just don't

#

either leave the 4 pin on the left empty

#

or grab another cable

#

the 4 pin on the left is optional

#

left or right I forgot, but the 4 pin that's to the side and standalone

little osprey Oct 13, 2020, 1:03 AM

who needs cables to be neat

it's literally only looks

even if you threw all your random cables in there, it doesn't really affect performance

Ok

I have a plan

I will try it real quick

So this is the first time this has happened I was playing Witcher 3 and my game just froze and I was getting a loud buzzing noise coming from the audio. My build is r5 3600x EVGA rtx 2070 super Asus prime B550M-A 24 gbs of Corsair vengeance rgb pro. What should I do about this

Hello,
What's the best way to upgrade the following PC MSI MPG Trident 3 10SI-002CA Gaming Desktop with Intel® i5-10400F, 1TB HDD, 512GB SSD, 8GB RAM, NVIDIA GTX 1660 Super & Windows 10 Home

I've beed told to add Ram. Is this correct or incorrect?

Please @ me! Any advice is greatly appreciated

lime forge Oct 13, 2020, 4:21 AM

#

yes @sharp steeple

#

upgrading the ram would be a good upgrade to that build

#

bump that 8gb up to 16gb

#

im unsure what type of ram it takes, youd have to open up the PC and let me know if its laptop memory or desktop memory

#

before i make recommendations

sharp steeple Oct 13, 2020, 4:23 AM

#

Okay you don't happen to know any ram do you? My last pc was led into a dead end upgrade wise

#

Ah okay!

#

I don't have it yet

#

Id like to have the ram when i get it

#

Thank you however! If i haven't figured it out ill be sure to put it here

lime forge Oct 13, 2020, 4:24 AM

#

alright

#

when you open it up, check to see if it takes this ram (short)

#

📎 4012817.png

#

or this ram (long)

soft bison Oct 13, 2020, 4:45 AM

3080 or 3070 is best choice for the coming months

3070 price to perf will be really good, but if you’re set on the 3080 just wait until it’s back in stock and get it right away
