ok

#

3?

maiden eagle
#

Nopers- just bridge the 2

little osprey
#

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

#

I GOT 4

#

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

#

i wasted to much money

maiden eagle
#

Well, if you got 4 you could prob easily sell the other 2

#

High demand low availability

little osprey
#

yea i might refund em

maiden eagle
#

If you YouTube Gamers Nexus has TONS of great vids

hybrid ether
#

I’m thinking of getting some kind of usb expansion card, should I get more usb 3.1 or get usb c, which I currently don’t have any

#

...I have a lot of stuff plugged into my pc

#

That and it just didn’t come with a ton of ports

#

I can put two more USB 3.2 ports on the front, I think at least

#

It was intended for 2.0 but I think 3,2 would fit

maiden eagle
#

@hybrid ether You could just get external USB hub

hybrid ether
#

I mean yeah, but when I was building it I accidentally removed one too many of the little metal tabs that you take off for the pcie stuff

#

And usb expansion cards are really not expensive

maiden eagle
#

Oooooh- yeah, OCD about it eh ? I have nothing that uses the c either

hybrid ether
#

Neither do I, but I don’t know much of anything about USB ports

maiden eagle
#

So,I’d prob just go 3.2

hybrid ether
#

So I figured someone here might

maiden eagle
#

I have yet to see any hardware that needed anything other than 3.2

#

But I don’t have all the newest stuff either

wild briar
#

Hey can someone help me. What part I should choose for ryzen 5 3600 build

wild briar
#

What about the 2nd

wild briar

wild briar

I am not a pc expert

coarse coral

it will run games on high/max at only 1080p so don't expect 1440p or 4k gaming.

wild briar

hello i was wondering if any of you guys can make a pc that's 2000 dollars on system builder and send it to me. i have been saving up for a long time and was wondering if you guys can make a 2000 dollar pc build that's main color is white, can play games, and has at least more than 3tb of storage. i will get the parts on December though.

inland parrot
heady current
#

@rustic sandal at a scale 1-10 how good is the build. just asking i dont want to sound rude.

#

@rustic sandal oh and the case is my choice?

balmy patio
#

one of my friends has that laptop

#

but idk im not familiar with it

rustic sandal
#

@heady current for $2k, that’s the best of the best. Except for the new cpu launch, but same price point better performance, they just aren’t out yet

heady current
#

@rustic sandal thanks for everthing man

#

or women

languid nimbus
#

Hmm, I’m trying to decide. It’s someone we know who’s been quarantined and hasn’t gotten paid that’s selling it, so I don’t want to bargain the price, if it’s worth $500 I’ll just give him $500

#

But I’m just not sure how good it is as a whole

rustic sandal
#

@languid nimbus since when is a 1650ti a thing

languid nimbus
#

Good question

little osprey
#

Isn’t there only 1650 supers

stoic island
#

rood

rustic sandal
#

But it looks good for $700, especially 500

stoic island
#

@inland parrot hell no

#

you know what's the best b550 board

languid nimbus
#

I guess 1650ti is only a laptop thing?

stoic island
#

b550 velocita

balmy patio
#

bruh my mother paid $800 bucks for sum macbook air, im pretty sure at 800 bucks thats a good deal, especially if a friend is selling you it for 500 @languid nimbus

languid nimbus
#

Yeah, it’ll be for my wife. She’s got a MacBook rn but it’s kinda garbage. Seems like every MacBook she’s ever had has crapped the bed within a year or so lol

rustic sandal
#

Is it a good b550 budget board yes

languid nimbus
#

Thanks guys!

little osprey
#

Ok

stoic island
languid nimbus
#

Welp

little osprey
#

@peak sentinel I’ll make a list

#

With 3070 if u want

#

What’s your buget

inland parrot
#

@stoic island Wtf i just looked at the review 4.9/5

stoic island
#

?

#

so?

inland parrot
#

I mean lol

#

Soooo

#

Idk nevermind

edgy wagon
#

@little leaf 8gbs on an rx 580

#

I think I found my problem from last night though where I was crashing

#

My page file was set to 0

#

mbs

foggy hazel
#

and if you had looked in the file you posted @edgy wagon

#

it told you

little osprey
#

Anyone have a $700 usd list? My friend thinking of buying a prebuilt for that price and I want to compare the 2 and show him building is better

stoic island
#

@little osprey I can make one rq

#

oh wait I have one chillin

foggy hazel
#

@inland parrot is there any particular reason you randomly ping Techies?

little osprey
#

@stoic island alright thanks

peak sentinel
#

Crap sorry I keep forgetting $1050 USD @little osprey

fresh plinth
#

quick question. is there a definitive date for the 3070 release that we know of?

edgy wagon
#

im building a friend a pc. 1650 s or 1660? does that 2gbs of vram matter enough

stoic island
foggy hazel
#

@edgy wagon reviews.

stoic island
#

By the way, 1660 has a completely different die too

#

not just more vram

edgy wagon
#

yeah ik

#

benchmarks are pretty close for gaming

little osprey
#

@stoic island can I change the mobo to the msi wifi one because unfortunately he needs wifi not close to router

stoic island
#

yea sure

little osprey
#

Thanks I appreciate it

stoic island
#

:)

foggy hazel
#

also @edgy wagon, dont adjust settings you dont know the meaning of

little osprey
#

The prebuilt he was buying had no ssd SeriousEgg

heady current
#

@rustic sandal oh and do i need extra cables, fans, etc

pliant vapor
#

Hey need some recommendations, should I upgrade my 5820k to a 9900k with a new mobo, or upgrade my 1660Ti to a 3070?

hybrid ether
#

You’d probably need to upgrade both, I can’t Imagine there wouldn’t be a bottleneck if you only upgraded one of them

foggy hazel
#

the 5820 aint bad, it is a HEDT cpu after all

#

so 6 cores, 12 threads

pliant vapor
#

yeah I'm going to be upgrading them both eventually but rn can only upgrade one or the other

foggy hazel
#

@pliant vapor my advice would be this: wait for the reviews on the 3070, someone will be doing some "old cpu" testing at that point too. It will give us an idea about how it performs.

pliant vapor
#

aight I'm prob going to do that then

#

Thanks for the advice

foggy hazel
#

you are very welcome

#

best of luck

little osprey
#

My new pc build is going to take 598 watts according to new eggs thing, so what wattage psu should I get, I really don’t think I’ll be upgrading this thing for a long time after building it so I don’t think I need much room for higher wattage parts

foggy hazel
#

link the build @little osprey

stoic island
#

Mhm

little osprey
#

Hold on I don’t have it on pc part picker yet

foggy hazel
#

just throw a screenshot of the list from newegg

#

thats enough

little osprey
#

Ok

#

I’m on my phone rn sorry about the inconvenience

#

But yea, I haven’t put the gpu on the cart yet but it will be a 3080

#

Most likely

inner root
#

Thats a sick pc bro

little osprey
#

I am very excited to build it, thanks

foggy hazel
#

i would STRONGLY suggest you go pcpp for that

little osprey
#

I’m ordering on the 29th or around there

foggy hazel
#

because some of the prices are ... "interesting" :)

little osprey
#

Ok

#

I’ll do that, thanks

foggy hazel
#

and you will end up in the 750 watt range for PSU need.

#

Phantek AMP 750 comes to mind as a solution for you

little osprey
#

That’s what I was thinking but wanted to make sure I don’t overspend

foggy hazel
#

its about 115 usd

vapid igloo
#

Hi, I am new here and I am in need of help to know if my part list is good

foggy hazel
#

post your list

little osprey
#

@peak sentinel dm me

#

For help

vapid igloo
#

-Ryzen 7 2700x
-Gigabyte B450M DS3H MATX
-Team T-Force Vulcan Z 16GB (2x8gb)
-Kingston A400 240GB 2'5S" SSD
-Seagate Barracuda Compute 2TB 3'5" 7200RPMm
-MSI GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB VENTUS XS OC
-Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L
-EVGA BR 500 W 80+ Bronze
-AOC C24G1

stoic island
foggy hazel
#

@vapid igloo what is the budget on that?

vapid igloo
#

$1k 😎

foggy hazel
#

is that with the monitor?

vapid igloo
#

With, monitor, keyboard, and mic

foggy hazel
#

and then we can have a chat about it

vapid igloo
#

Alright

#

@foggy hazel

stoic island
sturdy leaf
#

Nice

#

And @vapid igloo consider getting a m.2 ssd

vapid moth
#

I finally found a 2070 for my list that isn't 600+ rn

sturdy leaf
#

Nice

vapid igloo
#

Oh ok

foggy hazel
#

@vapid igloo

#

do note the following

#

that list completely removes the HDD

#

only a ssd there

#

simply to make room for more interesting parts in the original build

#

and adding a HDD is a 2-3 minute job later

vapid igloo
#

ill check it out

#

@foggy hazel, do you think a 1660 S is enough though. I dont wanna play games that require a really strong PC, I mainly wanna play on FiveM, PUBG, Crossout, and maybe some Minecraft

foggy hazel
#

1660 S should be plenty for that

#

but i am NOT that knowledgeable about those

#

so i would recommend having a look around at some reviews on how that card performs in those games :)

vapid igloo
#

Oh ok, thanks 🙂

stoic island
#

FiveM is prob the most intensive out of all of them

#

Crossout and Minecraft is fairly weak

#

PUBG afaik kinda mid end in terms of graphics

foggy hazel
#

you are very welcome and best of luck @vapid igloo

languid nimbus
#

If I were to get the laptop I’d mentioned earlier in this chat and purchased a m.2, is it as simple as just tossing it in? Or is it different for laptops?

#

As in, it’s incredibly simple on desktop, but unsure on laptops

foggy hazel
#

depends on the laptop

#

but it can be as easy as just removing 2 screws and sliding the m.2 into the slot. screwing that in, putting the cover for that access port back, screwing that in. and done.

little osprey

800 dollar build

Gaming? Resolution? Settings? Other application use? Streaming? Engineering? Video editing?

#

Are you willing to wait?

sharp bear
#

X570 or B550 mobo for Ryzen 9 3900X

foggy hazel
vapid igloo
#

So apparently the 1660 S is good for FiveM

#

And those other games

little osprey
#

Hey guys, I have to build a PC for my friend for 500 euros, can anyone give me some specs to work with? (Parts can be used)

#

It’s gaming oriented

stoic island
#

@little osprey what region

little osprey
#

Malta, EU

#

Sorry if my username is hard to ping but once I get to the point when I can change my nickname on the server I’m gonna change it

#

Cause I’m not sure if it’s against the rules to have a username with a weird font

vagrant gulch
#

So I'm trying to build a pc for my friend too. Though he wants it to be at the budget of $1k. I had made a list, but not sure if it's guud. Can anyone see if this is alr so far?

cursive haven
#

#

@vagrant gulch

vagrant gulch
#

yea

cursive haven
#

k gimme a bit

vagrant gulch
#

Alright thanks

vital warren
cursive haven
#

is it for gamming or like productivity

vagrant gulch
#

Oh right keep forgetting to mention that. It's for gaming.

cursive haven
#

ok

vagrant gulch
#

Thanks for the reference

indigo talon
#

MOTHERBOARD: MSI Pro Series X299 RAIDER ATX w/ RGB, USB 3.1, 4 PCIe x16, 2 PCIe x1, 8 SATA3, 2 M.2 SATA/PCIe [Intel Optane Ready]

#

Where can I get one.

cursive haven
#

Thanks for the reference
@vagrant gulch https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4N3TTC here i kinda streched the budget so ya, also if u wanted to save a couple bucks u can change the case and ram (for ram just get somthing without rgb for cheaper)

rustic sandal
#

or get a boot drive and hdd

cursive haven
#

yea u can do that 2

vagrant gulch
#

True, I thought I had added like a 250 gb ssd and a 2tb for him on my list

cursive haven
#

i just put that one m.2 so its easier to install

vagrant gulch
#

Ah gotcha, thanks again.

vital warren
#

1660ti is kind of bad value and you can get much better with a thousand, b550 is the same price and a lot of good boards are cheaper than that one, should get 3600 cl16 ram for ryzen 3000, nzxt h510 is overrated and you can get many better options at that price point, etc

#

sorry i had to nitpick a little lol

cursive haven
#

lol

vagrant gulch
#

It seems like some of the nvidia gpus are out of stock or the price is up more than the original

still roostBOT
#
nate the aries#0329 has been warned

Reason: Duplicated text

vital warren
#

yeah that's normal

#

i wouldn't buy any new 20 series gpu as you can get much better from the 30 series for most price points

#

and amd is announcing their gpus in 5 days iirc

vagrant gulch
#

Yea I kept trying to let him know to wait tbh

#

Even warned him because of how I built mines in May. At least I didn't get any 20 series and gotten a rx 580 and somewhut cheap

sand pine
#

Guys is rx570 with a 1600AF good?

#

My friend was thinking of buying that

cursive haven
#

for a budget build

vital warren
#

for how much?

vagrant gulch
#

I got a 1600AF

sand pine
#

He is on a 500 budget i think

cursive haven
#

oh then yea

#

but id go with a 580

vagrant gulch
#

^

sand pine
#

Alright, further any mobos recommendations?

covert pewter
#

What components are good for a 1300 build

vital warren
#

could probably do like a 3600 + 3080

#

or a 5600 + 3080

#

something like that

covert pewter
#

Like a 3080 gpu

vital warren
#

yes

covert pewter
#

Damn

cloud oasis
#

Go amd tho

covert pewter
#

That’s what I plan to do

cloud oasis
#

So u can upgrade in the future

covert pewter
#

Any good fans with rgb that you know

vital warren
#

can just get a case with come preinstalled and add an exhaust one

#

i'll make a quick list that can be changed and nitpicked by whoever thinks money can be put in better places

covert pewter

On just the pc I plan to spend about 1400

vital warren
#

oh that's an easy 3080 build

stable smelt
#

3080 3700x build

#

Pretty much

vital warren
#

it's a start

covert pewter
#

Let me check it

#

The only thing I do require is a wifi motherboard

stable smelt
#

I’d go for that one silver stone tower or the new in win but aye, your choice

vital warren
#

oh that's a few dollars more for a wifi mobo

#

it doesnt show up for me on pcpp though

#

its like 15 more

#

msi b550m pro-vdh wifi

covert pewter
#

I don’t mind spending 100 more dollars

#

I can probably add more storage with that

vital warren
#

yeah

stable smelt
#

Get the new in-win case (I forgot what its called)

vital warren
#

can switch it to a 1tb ssd or add a 2tb hdd

stable smelt
#

or storage

covert pewter
#

1 tb is good ssd

vital warren
#

i'd just get a 1tb mp34 i'll switch it

covert pewter
#

Okay sounds good

vital warren
#

dude my pcpp is being weird

covert pewter
#

The 3080 build is good for me

#

I’m doesn’t have that much lighting but I can add a led strip to it

vital warren
#

pretty sure the gpu i put has a little rgb, plus i can add rgb ram to the list for a little more, and lighting strips are cheap

covert pewter
#

O can deal with the lighting

vital warren
covert pewter
#

I and focused on performance rn

#

The ssd is good I found a 1 tb Samsung for 10 dollars cheaper

#

But thanks for your help

vital warren
#

if it's a sata ssd i'd just stick to the mp34 nvme one

#

much faster

#

and yw

covert pewter
#

Okay

#

I might see If robey tech will build it for me

whoever needed the list do you need wifi ?

#

or using ethernet

wild briar
#

Yes

#

I NEED WIFI

stable smelt
#

Psu’s are so expensive holy crap

vagrant bone
#

true

vital warren
storm carbon
#

@stable smelt stupidly expensive

stable smelt
#

Yes

#

It’s insane

vagrant bone
#

Im not going cheap either for my psu cuz you just can't go cheap on those<

stable smelt
#

Nope

vagrant bone
#

Im getting like 750w 80+ gold

vital warren
#

i'm paying like 107 for semi modular 750w 80+ gold

#

which ain't that bad

wild briar
#

Is 80+ gold better

#

Than bronze

stable smelt
#

750 is like 70$ for a bronze and 100 for a gold

vagrant bone
#

im in canada so in cad its like 150 for the psu im getting

vital warren
#

bronze psus are usually nice in lower budgets

stable smelt
#

Gold is better

foggy hazel
#

@stable smelt and none of what you said there actually matter

vital warren
#

like evga brs

stable smelt
#

Okay sorry

#

Why does it matter

foggy hazel
#

the efficiency mark does not tell you anything about the actual PSU model

#

there are piles of crap that are Gold marked

wild briar
#

Hey dwells

stable smelt
#

For like a name brand one gold is mostly better

wild briar
#

I want 1tb of m.2

foggy hazel
#

brand name does NOT matter either

#

model over brand

#

ALWAYS

vagrant bone
#

@wild briar I don't think you should go with 1tb m.2 in a budget build

wild briar
#

Why?

vagrant bone
#

.....

vital warren
#

kinda dips into budget

foggy hazel
#

much as i like Seasonic psu's they make some really bad models too.

vital warren
#

500 is good for now

#

can throw in more storage down the line

vagrant bone
#

Naed would you say Corsair RM's are a good model ?

wild briar
#

Ok how many can I fit

#

On that motherboard

vital warren
#

2 m.2s iirc

foggy hazel
#

depends on the specific model @vagrant bone

wild briar
#

Dwells

#

Ok

wild briar
#

What’s better Corsair or evga psu

vital warren
#

depends on model

vagrant bone
#

brand doesnt mean anything

stable smelt
#

Does antec still make psu’s?

wild briar
#

Or should I get the thermal take

vagrant bone
#

what the actual

#

that case gives me aids

stable smelt
#

Don’t buy that

wild briar
#

The black version not white

stable smelt
#

Please

wild briar
#

Should I but thermal than

stable smelt
#

Either way

vagrant gulch
#

bro wtf is dat case

wild briar
#

Should I buy thermal take

runic bison
vagrant bone
#

depends what you wanna do with that pc @runic bison

foggy hazel
#

@vagrant bone that is a okay model

runic bison
#

gaming

vagrant bone
#

alright thanks man

wild briar
#

GUYS WHAT CASE SHOULD I BUY PLZ

vital warren
#

what's ya budget for case

wild briar
#

Like 100

foggy hazel
#

@stable smelt re: antec: yes. but most are bad

stable smelt
#

Buy that one silver stone or new in-win airflow case

wild briar
#

Or 150

stable smelt
#

Mmm ok

vital warren
#

what's your budget overall again?

foggy hazel
#

@wild briar calm down and stop yelling.

wild briar
#

1000

vital warren
#

for 1000 i would stray away from a 150 case budget

vagrant bone
#

yeah

vital warren
#

and even a $100 case eats into other parts quite a bit

wild briar
#

Ok than 100?

stable smelt
#

75 bucks

wild briar
#

Than idk

stable smelt
#

Max

wild briar
#

What case ?

#

Corsair ?

vital warren
#

highest i would go for that is like a corsair 4000d airflow

stable smelt
#

Dlm21 airflow

wild briar
#

Thermal take?

vital warren
#

which is 80

stable smelt
#

Silverstone airflow tower (forgot the name)

vital warren
#

meshify c is also nice and can sometimes be found around 80

runic bison
#

if anyone can check the pcpart link i send and tell me what to improve on pls do tell, my budgets at like 500-600 cause money is hard

stable smelt
#

Wait for new gpus

wild briar
#

Guys on cyber Monday are pc parts on sale?

stable smelt
#

Sometimes

wild briar
#

Ok

stable smelt
#

And black Friday

wild briar
#

Or Black Friday

#

Ok

stable smelt
#

sometimes

wild briar
#

So what case

runic bison
#

when is black fri

stable smelt
#

Dark flash dlm21 airflow

#

Good cheap case

wary geode
#

Hey @foggy hazel so someone contacted me and i need some help to figure out if this motherboard is now dead he said the pin fell off when he hit it upgrading his ram and now it’s not displaying

ripe wedge
#

@wary geode you could probably solder it back on

#

I cant spell

wary geode
#

The issue is I’m not there 😂 and the peeps don’t have one

ripe wedge
#

oof

wary geode
#

I’m more than likely gonna do a motherbaord replacement

foggy hazel
#

congrats, they are out of a front panel connector

#

thats all

wary geode
#

Wait what do you mean

ripe wedge
#

thats fpanel?

#

so how will they power on

wary geode
#

That’s near the dimm slots

foggy hazel
#

read :)

wary geode
#

I’ll contact them it’s starting to make sense e

foggy hazel
#

that is the board

#

do you recognize that connector now?

wary geode
#

Wrong thing

#

This is what he said I’ll look for the vid but yeah it’s the front pañal but it doesn’t boot

#

Post*

foggy hazel
#

@wary geode read what i said above

#

its a connector that goes to the front of the case

#

also known as a front panel connector

#

it is NOT fpanel

wary geode
#

Yes I understand

#

Ohhh

foggy hazel
#

as i said

#

read

#

:)

wary geode
#

Lol what’s the difference between them give me a minute to read and take this in

foggy hazel
#

click the link

#

and this is what you end up with

wary geode
#

Yea I got it I think I know what happened

foggy hazel
#

now, tell me what is the MAIN difference between that picture and what the person you are talking with sent?

wary geode
#

It didn’t have the Sheild I belive that’s all I see

foggy hazel
#

somehow

wary geode
#

Somewhere it feel off 😂

foggy hazel
#

they have torn that plastic cover OFF

#

it does not "just" fall off

wary geode
#

Yeah I’m heavily confused on wtf they did

foggy hazel
#

they did what all users do

#

blame it on something silly

wary geode
#

I have to get a clear picture from them what happened because I don’t know this person they are someone who contacted me to do a motherbaord replacement

#

I get it dang

foggy hazel
#

here is the "fun" thing :)

#

its just a usb connector

#

it does not matter

wary geode
#

Yeah

#

So I’ll see what happened I think I can handle it

foggy hazel
#

its just a usb FRONT PANEL connector

wary geode
#

Just didn’t recognize because I’m blind

foggy hazel
#

:)

wary geode
#

his case doesn’t even have usb 3.0 he said 😂

foggy hazel
#

never trust the client @wary geode

wary geode
#

Ok makes sense

foggy hazel
#

hence why the first thing i did was lookup the mainboard model

#

based on the x7-v124 i could see in your picture

wary geode
#

Also that issue on the dram and cpu switching back and forth we couldn’t figure out and they broke my cpu and now shipping it back broken like wtf am I suppose to do

foggy hazel
#

you are supposed to tell them to go hump a cactus

wary geode
#

Yeah good thinking sorry for being sluggish should’ve noticed

#

I wish 😦

#

But I’d get banned off the app and that’s the thing I sold on

foggy hazel
#

well

wary geode
#

I will be confronting them on rushing into it

#

Because they also plugged the hdmi to the motherbaord 😦

#

So I’m not sure if that fried it

foggy hazel
#

let them talk

#

have patience and let them talk

wary geode
#

Yea I understand thanks naed for all your help I know I’m always a handful but you help and you really help people

#

Your a very nice person taking time to help other people and it doesn’t go unnoticed

#

Thanks

foggy hazel
#

you are very welcome, and best of luck.

#

and i cannot stress this enough. LET THEM TALK.

wary geode
#

Ok thanks 🙂 I really love how you take all issues and try your best your like a trouble shooting role model for me wish I can know as much as you some day

#

Now you have a great day and thanks so much rainbowspasm

foggy hazel
#

:)

Hey,
Is everything fine with the below, anything I might have overlooked or is sub-optimal?
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/rpJgwz
Notes:
Used for - 1080p Gaming/Video editing on Davinci Resolve
Overclocking? - No
Have to use WiFi? - Yes
Also, I wont be upgrading this, so see no need for a B550. I'll just build from scratch in 4 years time.
System Builder

foggy hazel
#

you can save money by going b550 with wifi on the mainboard @little osprey

#

and if memory serves, that ssd is not all that good

little osprey
#

@foggy hazel can you link one

foggy hazel
#

there you go @little osprey

#

both mainboard and ssd suggestions are in that list

stoic island
#

Ssd pricing feels... Off

foggy hazel
#

UK

little osprey
#

Thank you

#

anyone think paying 800$-900$ on a pc worth it🥺?

stoic island
shrewd pasture
#

I bought mine without realizing it didn't have a disc drive, so my solution was this

stoic island
#

@little osprey why not

shrewd pasture
stoic island
#

Interesting setup

foggy hazel
#

nice call @stoic island

stoic island
#

:)

little osprey
#

@stoic island Prebuilt?

stoic island
#

Pcpp still being dumb and not displaying a good amount of parts

#

@little osprey hell no

little osprey
#

LMAOO

stoic island
#

There's only one that I've seen that's decent

shrewd pasture
#

I have 10 active mobos around the house and a friend suggested I get a server rack and daisy train them all 😅

stoic island
#

Lemme see if it's still on sale

little osprey
#

I would build one, but i don’t wanna wait for parts kinda impatient

stoic island
#

This is actually good specs for the price

#

@little osprey bro you would wait for parts the same way you would wait for the prebuilt smh

little osprey
#

@stoic island if i buy it all at once it comes in at one time?

stoic island
#

Depends on the seller, if you bought everything from the same place, yea

little osprey
#

Amazon?

stoic island
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#

If it ships from the same warehouse, yes.

shrewd pasture
#

The one I most actively use has

- Ryzen 1600
- Nvidia 1050 TI
- 32GB RAM
- 2TB HDD
little osprey
stoic island
#

1600af or ae

#

@little osprey I would tell your friend to use pcpartpicker.com and not share stuff that way lmao

shrewd pasture
#

panik because I don't remember

stoic island
#

And from the looks of it having a NZXT H510, no.

shrewd pasture
#

Hey that's the HDD that my pc has 🤣🤣

stoic island
#

Prob ae then, considering 1050ti timing

little osprey
#

What’s worth buying from that video then?

shrewd pasture
#

The 1050ti was the backup card bc the Sapphire RX 580 came faulty

little osprey
#

Pcpartpicker got it

stoic island
#

Pricings all screwed up nowadays

#

And tbh

#

You could get that 700$ prebuilt if you didn't want the trouble

#

Because that's actually good value for now

little osprey
#

i watched those YT videos that are like “900$ Budget Gaming Pc build”

stoic island
#

I'm also lazy and don't want to go through the "wait for 3070 you can fit it in a 1000$ list" thing

#

What about no

#

Because by the time you watch any of the videos, the pricing is all out of wack compared to what they say :p

#

3600 was 160-170$ just a few weeks ago

#

Doesn't go under 200$ now

little osprey
#

i don’t wanna sound like a loser but as soon as i get a pc i’m hooking in the controller

#

before i snap the key board in half

Does everything look alright I still need the gpu and I’m installing the psu rn

@sturdy leaf everything looks right.

choosing a Radeon RX 5700 XT, which one models are the good @stoic island @foggy hazel

vapid moth
#

How should I arrange my storage? Currently have an NVMe 256gb m.2 and a 1tb sata, should I change it or keep it like that?

twilit salmon
#

If I bought my windows USB and decided to upgrade my boot drive to one of higher storage could I just plug it back in and install it the same way I did the original or would it require you to buy a new USB?

foggy hazel
#

@twilit salmon normally you can use the same

twilit salmon
#

Alright cool thanks!

foggy hazel
#

your are welcome :)

inland parrot
#

question, the b550 a pro motherboard good for gaming and streaming

shadow mango
#

Question i just barley put a m.2 into my pc how do i put my windows on there#l

little osprey
#

Yeah I have to find a new motherboard that supports Ryzen 3 3100 AM4 and DDR4 Ram can anyone help please

cosmic copper
#

I'm building a pc this weekend and I wanted to take the hard drives from my old HP pc and put it in my new pc? It has windows 10 will that work?

vagrant bone
#

@cosmic copper Yes, I'm pretty sure that would work

#

@inland parrot can you link the exact motherboard ?

#

@little osprey budget for your motherboard ?

little osprey
#

So I already bought my parts. It’s just now I have to re buy a new motherboard because the motherboard I have they all have problems.

#

It has to be by 100-200

little osprey
#

Crucial Ballistics 16 GB 2x8
AMD Ryzen 3 3100
GTX 2060 super
Team Group MP34 M.2 512GB
EVGA 100-BR-0600w 80pluse that’s my specs though.
I had a MSI PRO VDH-WIFI AM4 and it has a problem when you load the windows 10 download to select what windows version and boom it constantly restarts

vagrant bone
#

oh.

#

That just means you arent doing the first boot properly. You can probably type in whatever motherboard you have and search how to first boot windows 10

little osprey
#

Oh no I have someone who has been building PCs since 2010 he knows what to do he’s tried everything. A lot of reviews on the board on Newegg says the same thing

vagrant bone
little osprey
#

Alright I’ll look into it and thank you. This is Fr my first Pc and I’ve had parts now for over 3 weeks and kinda got sad when I was told that I need a new motherboard. Have to wait till November just to buy one though sadly

vagrant bone
#

aren't you able to send back your current motherboard and get a refund ?

little osprey
#

I can send it back we are doing that in the morning I hope they will allow to give me my money back

vagrant bone
#

They for sure should give you your money back or else I feel bad but yeah. I'm also slowly buying parts for a pc build

little osprey
#

They better lmao it’s not that I don’t have a problem paying it’s just like yo I bought this and it’s just constantly restarting. But like I said I’d have to wait till November to buy a newer one and it sucks to just wait even longer been wanting to buy it for a month now and I did then this happens

vagrant bone
#

alright well good luck with that and have fun with your pc once its up and running !

little osprey
#

Thank you and I hope you won’t run into any problems with

#

Yours

vagrant bone
#

I hope so

uncut pelican
#

@vagrant bone

#

Might be a good ine

#

One

#

If needed go for the 280

vagrant bone
#

oof a bit too expensive

uncut pelican
#

alrighty lemme see

#

What are using the pc for

vagrant bone
#

gamign and streaming

tardy estuary
#

And anime

vagrant bone
#

gaming*

#

ummm

#

maybe

#

maybe anime

uncut pelican
#

Highly recommend that mic

#

Its amazing

#

Alr lemme look at cheaper options

vagrant bone
#

Yeah im gonna use the blue snowball until I can get like an at2020 but for now blue snowball will do

uncut pelican
#

How bout this?

vagrant bone
#

yeah that looks pretty good

#

that was in the options I was thinking abobut

uncut pelican
#

Planning on overclocking at all?

vagrant bone
#

thanks man

#

uhhh probably not

uncut pelican
#

Ok that should be a good option

#

Np :)

vagrant bone
#

Oh and btw do you think rtx 2000 series are gonna drop prices ?

inland parrot
#

@vagrant bone which motherbaord do you want me to link to you

vagrant bone
#

question, the b550 a pro motherboard good for gaming and streaming
@inland parrot

#

you asked this

#

which motherboard exactly

vagrant bone
#

and your streaming and gaming performance also depends from what cpu and gpu you have

little osprey
#

Now my 2060 super might be bad 😅 imma go insane

vagrant bone
#

I mean ya am4 thats gonna be good depending what processor you get

#

ryzen is great for streaming

#

assuming you are getting a ryzen cpu that is....

inland parrot
#

Yeah i was planning on waiting for the new ryzen 5000 series then getting the Rt 5700xt

vagrant bone
#

yeah I suggest waiting for the 5000 series

inland parrot
#

But someone said that i should wait

#

Amd has a 6000 now for gpu and getting lunched next week

vagrant bone
#

personally not a fan of amd gpu's but go for it if you have the money

inland parrot
#

Becsue i dont want to get an expensive gpu but get the same graphics expirence that were on a cheaper gpu

#

I would have just wasted money

#

And I want the one that has the highest screen resolutions that is at a reasonable price, which tbh i will not find

#

List of B550 motherboarads for both gaming and streaming and can take the very powerful, cpus, ram, psu gpus,etc

vagrant bone
#

yeah one sec

#

heres a bunch of b550 motherboards

desert gulch
#

and @inland parrot if you are going like 3950x and 3090 you may go towards x570

#

x570 will have more features for very high end setups

vagrant bone
#

true

desert gulch
#

and dizzy price drop on 2000 series isnt likely

#

because they have completely stopped making them

#

they are almost hard to find

#

new ones

#

for msrp

#

but used market could be decent

vagrant bone
#

ummm from 2000 series I meant like rtx 2070s and all that

desert gulch
#

thats what im saying

vagrant bone
#

oh

desert gulch
#

they dont make them anymore

vagrant bone
#

they stopped making them ?

desert gulch
#

yeah

vagrant bone
#

oh rip

desert gulch
#

cause they are focused on 3000 rn

vagrant bone
#

oh alright

hazy rune
#

Used market won’t be good either

#

At least until people actually get 3000 series cards

desert gulch
#

yeah but it will in a bit im guessing

languid cedar
#

If you have the time can someone help me?

#

Im trying to find a build or a prebuilt on a budget of 800 dollars that can run vr

Oculus link

desert gulch

languid cedar
#

Yeah

desert gulch
#

vapid moth
#

Literally only sites with normal priced 2060 super are B&H and Office Depot, which should I buy off?

little leaf
#

wait for big navi

#

and rtx 3k

vapid moth
#

that'd be out of my budget either way

#

And I need to build soon since this laptop suddenly lost a lot of power and can barely run discord and chrome at the same time

ebon summit
#

How reliable is open box items

ebon summit

fleet pagoda
#

How come some stuff for windows 10 is 100$+ and others is like 20$

spiral zealot
#

@fleet pagoda windows is technically free, but if you want to activate it, you can get a key online for $10-20

fleet pagoda
#

An okay

#

How come on pc part picker its like 100$

spiral zealot
#

because that's the OEM price from microsoft

#

but there are bulk key resellers who sell the keys for much cheaper

fleet pagoda
#

Ok

#

What if i used linux

#

My uncle said linux is better

desert gulch
#

Linux is free

#

But much less user friendly than windows

#

And not everything is supported by linux yet

fleet pagoda
#

Doesnt windows take hours to install

viral ore
#

using a usb 3.0 device to install to an SSD, it takes like 10 mins max

summer wagon
#

Ye depends on how fast the drive is you're putting it on

vagrant bone
#

with just a generic usb flash drive it wont take long to download

ripe wedge
#

usb 3.2 op

#

with a 2.0 usb it will take a long time

slate thistle
#

lol windows takes like 4 minutes on modern m.2

#

the setup portion takes longer than the install

#

Hey guys can someone make me a list with ryzen 5000 plz

devout field

Nice and it’s cheaper too so I guess I was blind when I selected the parts

hexed obsidian
#

Also i was wondering if i have an upgrade path later down the line

#

Is the 450w psu limiting?

#

@pliant vapor btw I don't know why it lists the 9700k as 219 there because it's around 280 everywhere you buy it

pliant vapor
#

It’s for 219 at Microcenter

little osprey

covert pewter
#

Can some one help me

stoic island
#

@little osprey what price?

covert pewter
#

I don’t know what that means I am planning to use a ryzen 5 3600 with a Gigabyte b450 Arous pro wifi AM4

stoic island
#

@covert pewter how about you send the link to the list and we'll edit it from there?

covert pewter
#

Okay

little osprey
#

@stoic island Okay bro

covert pewter
stoic island
covert pewter
#

My bad

stoic island
#

I'm going to make some preliminary edits

covert pewter
#

Okay

little osprey
#

i think there are no problems. but one could be the motherboard. that means you have to look into the mobo manuals to see if it is compatible with ryzen 3000

covert pewter
#

It says it’s AM4

stoic island
#

There's more that I see wrong with the list than just that

#

:D

little osprey
#

yeah am4 is also ryzen 2000

stoic island
#

Well, more price-performance things

covert pewter
#

I might need to use a zen 2600

little osprey
#

yeah the msi is a good pick

#

but the b450 tomahawk max is a better choice for future and specs

#

and with the tomahawk max you get ryzen 3000 compatibility out of the box

#

for 10$ more

covert pewter
#

Well thanks I have been wondering this for a while now

little osprey
#

you're welcome bro

stoic island
#

I'm back

#

@little osprey nah

#

One thing B550 has over B450 is pcie gen 4 support

#

And guaranteed immediate Zen 3 support.

#

And has wifi

little osprey
#

yeah youre right

stoic island
#

For 15$ less

#

@covert pewter I'm gonna tell ya why I changed the other parts

little osprey
#

which b550 mobo is good

stoic island
#

To start off, the Ram, 3600mhz cl16 is optimal for Ryzen, a decent performance gain over 3200mhz cl16

#

For the SSD, TLC NVMe drive with dram for like 2$ more, why not?

#

Instead of a QLC SATA drive

little osprey
#

good choice

#

i didnt see the b550 in your list

#

i thought it was b450

stoic island
#

Power supply wise, EVGA B5 is decent, but Phanteks amp is just better, so yea.

#

You can shave the money off if your budget requires and go back to a b5

#

@covert pewter and a major point for your performance, when are you building? Because RTX 3070 launch is just around the corner.

here in germany the part prices are sooo different
