just check

#

could be that you got it packaged wrong

quick compass
#

wait

#

so they give you back your money and at the same time they will ship you a original one ?

stoic island
#

no

#

if you didn't receive it or received bad thing

#

make a claim

quick compass
#

I get it

stoic island
#

if they don't respond and give you chance to send it back in 3 days, ebay looks at it, and gives you money

#

if they do respond they refund your money back

zealous venture
#

@stoic island I bought the motherboard here in this newegg store and bought them refurbished. It means that the store sold it to me with that problem.

quick compass
#

pretty sure

stoic island
#

@zealous venture Mhm, then work backwards and contact Newegg for a return, or whichever 3rd party seller you bought from.

quick compass
#

refurbished doesn't always mean it is always working properly

stoic island
#

If you are sure the ram slot isn't working.

quick compass
#

this applies to anything

stoic island
#

@quick compass Refurb means it's working, with a few minor 'acceptable' defects.

quick compass
#

yes

#

ik

#

but doesn't guarantee for it to work (properly)

#

like the ram slots

stoic island
#

eh, it should

quick compass
#

whatever

stoic island
#

I did get a refurb mobo sooo

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

quick compass
#

does pc part picker take account of the amount of watts it takes

#

it uses

stoic island
#

for custom parts no

quick compass
#

(3080)

#

because it isn't in stock

stoic island
#

click on the power estimate lol

#

that'll tell ya

#

:P

quick compass
#

nope

#

not there

#

i'm dumb

#

it's ther

#

e

stoic island
#

:P

quick compass
#

lol

#

x570 boards are hard to decide on

desert gulch
#

yes

#

they all look so good too

quick compass
#

like I can't decide on just one

#

especially this one

desert gulch
#

then get all the x570 mobos

#

xD

quick compass
#

it's clean

desert gulch
#

bruh

quick compass
#

but costs

desert gulch
#

700 for a mobo

#

yeah

quick compass
#

tooooooo much

desert gulch
#

i think theres a x570 tomahawk

quick compass
#

desert gulch
#

their pretty solid

stoic island
#

@quick compass X570 Unify

#

quick compass
#

unify ?

stoic island
#

it's nice looking

quick compass
#

let me search

#

Oof not enough usb ports

stoic island
#

???

#

how many do you need?

quick compass
#

i've been trying to search for a good looking motherboard and enough usb ports

#

like 30000 billion

#

not jki

#

jk

#

not joking

desert gulch
#

mr1 they make pcie usb cards right?

stoic island
#

I mean it has 8 usb ports on rear io

desert gulch
#

if you really need that many ports

stoic island
#

what do you do that takes all of them

quick compass
#

yea but is is scattered all over the place

stoic island
#

on rear io

desert gulch
#

mouse + keyboard

#
  • maybe webcam
quick compass
#

plus I have 2 monitors

#

webcam

#

keyboard and moust

#

mouse

stoic island
quick compass
#

and wireless headphones

desert gulch
#

yes mr1

#

very scattered

stoic island
#

and monitor plugs into GPU btw

#

not motherboard

desert gulch
#

yes

quick compass
#

ik

#

but

gritty zenith
#

imagine having a clear cmos button

#

on

quick compass
#

the usb thingy

gritty zenith
#

the

#

io

#

bruh

quick compass
#

ik

#

I love that feature

gritty zenith
#

that probably cost an extra $100

stoic island
#

@quick compass it has 8 USB ports on rear io, 2 internal 3.0 headers, 1 internal 3.1 header.

#

what else do you need >:P

gritty zenith
#

bruh

#

literally

quick compass
#

usb type c on the front

#

lol

stoic island
#

Like I'm serious what else are you going to plug in

gritty zenith
#

all you need is ONE usb type c

stoic island
#

internal 3.1 means usb type c for front panel

quick compass
#

I need 3

#

no jk

gritty zenith
#

and then you connect a usb c hub

quick compass
#

lol

gritty zenith
#

literally screw having any usb type As on the back

stoic island
#

smh

gritty zenith
#

just 1 usb c

quick compass
#

i'm not making my setup cables a hot mess

gritty zenith
#

usb c hub

stoic island
#

?

gritty zenith
#

ez

stoic island
#

I'm confused on why you need more USB ports

#

and how other motherboards are different

gritty zenith
#

you don't tbh

#

just need 2 ports

quick compass
#

bro I look at the back of my pc and I just see a usb c hub dangling

stoic island
#

I'm really confused on that

quick compass
#

idk

#

preferecne

stoic island
#

because every motherboard looks something like that

quick compass
#

preferecne
@quick compass

gritty zenith
#

usb c hub goes on ya desk dummy -.-

quick compass
#

like bruh

#

I cant spell

stoic island
#

I'm still seriously concerned what your issue is with Unify >:P

quick compass
#

Oof

gritty zenith
#

usb c hubs look clean af imo if you just put it on your desk

#

or mount it to the side of your desk or behind it

#

quick compass

val, fortnite, csgo, among us, rocket league, netflix, google chrome, obs studio, tidal, minecraft, osu, doom, doom eternal, doom 64, and I have kindle

gritty zenith

quick compass

Overwatch just lucky enough to have devs that care about the game lol

quick compass

my highscore in google chrome is 9gb ram

quick compass

but it runs fortnite 240 fps fine

gritty zenith
#

ew

quick compass

mine is 16gb

gritty zenith
#

#

noob

quick compass
#

cuz I don't have stupid monitor

#

that is 360

#

hz

gritty zenith

Y NOT

desert gulch

gritty zenith
#

desert gulch

gritty zenith
#

i wish there was 5700xt mini itx tho lisasu2

desert gulch
#

yes

#

very poggers

#

you could make a mini itx 5700xt

#

with a sawsall

gritty zenith
#

No clue what that means

earnest ravine
#

@ someone

desert gulch
#

ti not worth imo

#

over super

vital warren
#

okay but the cpu cooler

#

ahh

earnest ravine
#

the super is 300

#

the ti is 260

#

what about the cooler @desert gulch

desert gulch
#

o

earnest ravine
#

@vital warren

desert gulch
#

super is usually lower

earnest ravine
#

yup

gritty zenith
#

get an itx super lol should be around $240

desert gulch
#

ye

earnest ravine
#

its 300

desert gulch
#

but at that price ti aint horrible

gritty zenith
#

1660 super right?

earnest ravine
#

yup

#

the one i want

stoic island
#

hm

cloud oasis
vital warren
#

instead of that 120mm aio, get an arctic liquid freezer ii 240mm for like 20 more

cloud oasis
#

I changed cpu cooler

stoic island
#

freezer ii ftw

#

so good

vital warren
#

or air if you want

cloud oasis
#

nh-d15 best air cooler

earnest ravine
#

its kinda ugly

stoic island
#

no u

desert gulch
#

gotem

stoic island
#

don't insult my d15

desert gulch
#

mr1 dishing out them roast

#

s

earnest ravine
#

sorry

desert gulch
#

lol

gritty zenith
#

freezer 34 duo op

earnest ravine
#

its presentable i guess

gritty zenith
#

js

#

its a thicc boi tho

earnest ravine
#

the thing is i want a aio

gritty zenith
#

bruh

#

i could get a strike with the eye roll u just induced

earnest ravine
#

better?

#

also what case fans should i get

gritty zenith
#

just two

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

unless case comes with one then just one lol

#

make sure they good ones tho

earnest ravine
#

it comes wit 2

gritty zenith
#

tbh u just need in and out fan

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

it cools my spicy stuff fine

#

all aircooled up in here

earnest ravine
#

@gritty zenith

gritty zenith
#

better than what

earnest ravine
#

the build

gritty zenith
#

w h a t b u i l d

#

also

earnest ravine
#

i changed the cooler

gritty zenith
#

is there a specific reason u want intel

#

or u just dont want value lol

#

just a question

earnest ravine
#

which ryzen should i get then

gritty zenith
#

when do you want to build this thing

#

bc if you can hold off another like what 11 days then ryzen 5 5600x

earnest ravine
#

idk i want to buy in like less then a month

#

ok

gritty zenith
#

yeah

#

amd should have good stock

#

its $300

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

out performs the 10600k in gaming

earnest ravine
#

could it still stream and record

gritty zenith
#

yup

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

ryzen is typically better in that category too as far as i know

vital warren
#

cpu doesn't really matter for streaming when you have nvenc

gritty zenith
#

tru

earnest ravine
#

so should i stick wit the stock cooler from ryzen then

gritty zenith
#

i mean

vital warren
#

stock cooler works

gritty zenith
#

you should be good

#

it works fine on a 3600 so yeah

earnest ravine
#

whats a nvenc

gritty zenith
#

video encoder

#

nvidia

vital warren
#

^

gritty zenith
#

your card will b doin the work

earnest ravine
#

o

gritty zenith
#

taking load off the cpu

#

op tech

vital warren
#

and with the 3080 you seem to want to get you'll be perfectly fine

#

card is a beast

gritty zenith
#

yeeee

#

5600x + 3080 seems like extreme value imo

vital warren
#

and if you need cooler suggestion on any budget i'd head over to #old-cooling

earnest ravine
#

ok

#

nah ima stick wit the stock cooler

gritty zenith
#

tbf the amd stock cooler looks clean af

earnest ravine
#

or just prob upgrade it in the future

gritty zenith
#

intel stock cooler on the other hand...

earnest ravine
#

what mother board should i get

#

then

gritty zenith
#

imo

#

b550

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

x570

#

most b550 boards have just as many features as x570

earnest ravine
gritty zenith
#

no

#

waste of money on that board

#

the mpg gaming plus is fine

earnest ravine
stoic island
#

or

#

hear me out

#

get a td500 mesh white with 3 fans

gritty zenith
#

^^^^

ripe wedge
#

td500 mesh good

gritty zenith
#

and then use one of them as exhaust

#

big value

ripe wedge
#

just take your time with cable management in the back of the td500

gritty zenith
#

i have a really bad air flow case, tower atx with only 2 fan slots and almost no vents, yet still keep my stuff cool

#

don't underestimate the power of fans

earnest ravine
#

i was planning to get it

#

but then i found the other one

gritty zenith
#

if you set on the other case, then two fans is fine

#

trust

#

lol

earnest ravine
stoic island
#

3 front 1 back

gritty zenith
#

yes

#

but

stoic island
#

more than that is arguable a waste

earnest ravine
#

what about the top

stoic island
#

I don't see it as necessary

vital warren
#

aio or leave the top alone

earnest ravine
#

ok

gritty zenith
#

i mean tbh any more than 1 back 2 front you're looking at diminishing returns

#

obv that depends on how much ya fans cost u lol

earnest ravine
#

fans good?

gritty zenith
#

as much as i love arctic i feel like that is overpriced

earnest ravine
#

really

#

14 dollars

gritty zenith
#

you'd be surprised

earnest ravine
#

28 dollar in total

gritty zenith
#

ah

#

my bad

#

those have pwm

#

nvm

#

looks good then

earnest ravine
#

ok

little osprey

Hi, so I have an old PC and I wanna but I don't what will it get me so here's the specs:

Radeon R9 Fury
i5-4670
Asrock Z87 Extream4
8GB RAM
500GB SSD
500GB HDD
750W Gigabyte PSU

How much will I get if I sell it ?

gritty zenith
#

might want to ask in tech deals

#

they might be able to price that for ya better

latent storm
#

can someone help me out with something

gritty zenith
#

shoot

cosmic venture
#

Yep, go for it

slim escarp
#

Hello

gritty zenith
#

crap

slim escarp
#

Huh

#

It’s me

gritty zenith
#

ig we were too late

slim escarp
#

I know

gritty zenith
#

may they rest in peace

slim escarp
#

What happened

gritty zenith
#

idk asked for help with something

#

and ig we didn't answer in time

slim escarp
#

Oh lol

latent storm
#

sorry i’m back

wooden lava
#

Can someone reccomend video links detailing the steps on what to do after building a pc. Im planning my first build and I believe i have videos covering the building aspect but i dont have the "after build" aspect such as the drivers that I need, or if I should update bios, etc

gritty zenith
#

they live ❤️

slim escarp
#

I finically did it I bought a bee desk say bye to the 25 inch

#

Finally

#

New not bee

small osprey
#

@wooden lava search up what to do after building a pc on yt

latent storm
#

basically i’m in the asrock bios and my 2tb seagate hdd shows up under storage configuration but when i go into windows i only see my 500gb ssd

slim escarp
#

Hey you guys wanna know something funny

gritty zenith
#

my life hahah

stoic island
#

@wooden lava we can point you towards things, but most of the "after build" is personal preference and optional

slim escarp
#

No my friend told me that his pc was not working so I asked him the specs and he told me that he doesn’t know because it was a prebuilt from cyberpower and when he did figure out the specs he has a 7 year old cpu in it and the gpu he is still trying to figure out

stoic island
#

Only thing required is GPU drivers, and maybe some drivers listed on mobo website

latent storm
#

basically i’m in the asrock bios and my 2tb seagate hdd shows up under storage configuration but when i go into windows i only see my 500gb ssd
@latent storm pls im running out of storage

stoic island
#

@latent storm go to windows

#

Disk manager

#

Initialize that boi

latent storm
thin meteor
#

Is pre built good I don’t know how to build it

twilit salmon
#

Should I turn off my PC? It’s been like this for half an hour

stoic island
#

@latent storm click ok

#

@thin meteor prebuilts are bad.

latent storm
#

alrighty now what?

stoic island
#

Does it show up as unallocated now?

latent storm
#

yes

stoic island
#

Right click it

#

New simple volume

latent storm
#

do i just keep clicking through the new simple volume wizard

stoic island
#

I think 2 clicks and then it'll ask if you want to format

#

And you'll want to format.

latent storm
stoic island
#

NTFS is good

#

Volume label is something you can change if you want

latent storm
#

should i just like change it to hdd or something

stoic island
#

Sure if you want

latent storm
#

and im done?

#

i appear to be done

#

what should i move from the ssd to the hdd

cosmic venture
#

Whatever u want

#

Games u don't play as often

#

Documents

#

Idk

gritty zenith
#

more like games with a ton of loading screens

#

wait

#

no

foggy hazel
#

setup multiple libraries in steam

gritty zenith
#

games with little loading screens

stoic island
#

@latent storm use windirstat, see what's taking your space.

gritty zenith
#

read it wrong

foggy hazel
#

and in any other game clients that allow that too

stoic island
#

And do what Naed says

hot aspen
#

I want to build a $500 gaming pc in America. I wanted it to be able to run 1440p games at 60 or more FPS. Do you think this is possible?

stoic island
#

Not really

hot aspen
#

How bout $600

gritty zenith
#

gonna b like $700

#

i think

#

min

stoic island
#

Medium settings 1440p60fps is doable with 600$

thin meteor
#

@thin meteor prebuilts are bad.
@stoic island my mom don’t trust me tho

stoic island
#

I think I can fit in a 1660 super or 1660

#

@thin meteor then convince her

cosmic venture
#

Tight budget

stoic island
#

Not at laptop rn

hot aspen
#

Prebuilts are a sin to society

foggy hazel
thin meteor
#

@thin meteor then convince her
@stoic island bet

hot aspen
#

So you guys think a good price for the pc is $700.

thin meteor
#

I go with intel or ryzen

#

Cpu

hot aspen
#

Intel. Who uses intel anymore

#

Amd is way better bang for buck

thin meteor
#

O ok ryzen it is

cosmic venture
#

Correct

hot aspen
#

I recommend the 5 3600 if you have enough money in your budget. I feel like it’s the best all rounder on the market for $200

stark tangle
#

Could someone look over this for me?

#

My friend asked for an around 2kish all around use case build

#

And this is what I sent them

hot aspen
#

I would take the money from the fans and put it toward more ssd storage.

stark tangle
#

I did fans since its an airflow case

#

Tbh

cosmic venture
#

Gen 4 ssd?

#

Surely that's worth the extra money instead of crazy expensive fans

stark tangle
#

good points ill fix fans/storage ratio

hot aspen
#

Honestly I’ve never seen the point in really expensive fans if they only serve as extra rgb

#

I get them being quiet or having more rpm but the rgb alone doesn’t make them worth that much

stark tangle
#

The only expensive fans worth it are the noctua a12 whatever u call them, i have them and they are amazing

cosmic venture
#

Maybe get some silent wings fans, they're pretty good

#

Can't remember how much they cost tho

hazy rune
#

Noctua fans are fantastic

#

$22 each on Amazon though 0.o

stark tangle
#

i have 6 of them they're worth it

hazy rune
#

I have 5 and I agree

#

Still expensive though

stark tangle
#

btw guys is there a way to select by gen 4 for ssds on pp

#

im tryna edit the build

hazy rune
#

Sort price high to low

#

😄

stark tangle
#

oop lol

stoic island
#

@stark tangle it's called knowing which ones are gen4 >:D

cosmic venture
#

btw guys is there a way to select by gen 4 for ssds on pp
@stark tangle just look up a model

#

U just gotta know the name or sort the price

sacred knot
cosmic venture
#

Windows 10 costs £10

stoic island
cosmic venture
#

Go on cdkeys

#

Or Linux, yes that works

stoic island
#

cdkeys took it off last I checked

cosmic venture
#

Oh wait really

#

That's sad

#

Linux is still underrated imo

stoic island
#

meh

#

it's not useful for the majority of people

hazy rune
#

It's great for programming

cosmic venture
#

Tbh, I prefer the ui

hazy rune
#

Otherwise not so great

stark tangle
cosmic venture
#

Even for an average user I think it can boost productivity

stoic island
#

... once they get over the learning curve

#

but remember

cosmic venture
#

Gaming is coming alone nicely

stoic island
#

people are used to one OS

#

whichever they're using

night storm
#

@stark tangle CL 18 ram you can do better

cosmic venture
#

OK yea that's true, but it doesn't take long to adjust, especially if u pick the right distro

stoic island
#

@stark tangle why..?

#

I mean

#

apps wise

stark tangle
#

what

stoic island
#

that takes a while to get used to

cosmic venture
#

Something like elementary is easy enough to transfer to at a basic level

#

Maybe, idrk

hazy rune
#

@stark tangle Why 140mm fans?

stoic island
#

what's with the industrial fans

cosmic venture
#

I don't exactly consider myself the average consumer

stark tangle
#

wait OOPS i didn't meant to do 140mm

#

hecc

sacred knot
#

im used to microsoft so idk how to use linux

hazy rune
#

A12s are better for cpu cooling anyway

#

Get the S12

stoic island
#

80% of the people that come around here come for gaming

cosmic venture
#

I'm here for a lot of things lol

#

Yea but like Linux gaming is really coming along

#

It's pretty good

stoic island
#

but does it have the it just works factor?

hazy rune
stoic island
#

:D

#

@stark tangle anyways, industrial fans. higher cfm does not mean better.

#

you see that 3000RPM?

#

that's how it gets the airflow

#

those aren't for consumer cases

#

those are for server racks in a server room

night storm
#

What did you say? Can’t hear you over my server rack

stoic island
#

what did you say?

hazy rune
#

Aahahaha

stoic island
#

it's too loud

cosmic venture
#

Get an 11000 RPM fan

#

Or a jet engine

stoic island
#

high rpm small fans aren't too bad

stark tangle
night storm
#

Unfortunately jet blasts won’t cool it down

stoic island
#

like the fan in this laptop is going like 5000rpm

#

fairly quiet still

cosmic venture
#

5k is pretty high tho

stoic island
#

@stark tangle what you need gen4 for

hazy rune
#

@stark tangle P12 isn't meant to be a case fan

night storm
#

Don’t forget to remove the cl18 then

cosmic venture
#

Unfortunately jet blasts won’t cool it down
@night storm but it will be really bloody cool

stark tangle
#

@stoic island why not since same price as gen 3 and its on an x570 might aswell

stoic island
#

@hazy rune yes it is >:P

#

where's the same price as gen 3 coming from..?

hazy rune
stoic island
hazy rune
#

S12 or A12

stark tangle
#

350 for 2tb 970 evo plus 350 for the mp drive

#

is how im comparing ig

#

fast gen 3 vs gen 4

stoic island
#

@stark tangle you see your issue?

#

970 evo

cosmic venture
#

Gen 4 is a lot faster

stoic island
#

not for daily use

#

that's why I'm asking why he needs gen 4

stark tangle
#

in the words of lightning mcqueen, i am speed uwu

hazy rune
#

Unless you like staring at your computer while it copies files

#

Just get a gen 3

cosmic venture
#

True but like

hazy rune
#

stoic island
#

sx8200 pro and MP600

#

little osprey
#

#

the 210 is better

#

ngl

hazy rune
#

Man I paid $235 for that drive like two weeks ago

cosmic venture
#

Hm idk

stoic island
#

#

25$ ain't too bad

stark tangle
#

#

i regret stuff

cosmic venture

Ripp

stark tangle

hazy rune
#

A12 is good. You can also do NF-S12x25

stoic island
#

but anyways

#

s12 is redux

#

quiet bois

#

but yea I actually have a nf-p12 as exhaust

night storm
#

Sorry couldn’t help it

hazy rune
#

For real tho

latent storm
#

i opened windirstat and I don't know what I'm looking at

stark tangle
stoic island
#

wait

#

where are nf a12x25s 45$ a fan

#

that's crazy high

#

it should be 25

stark tangle
#

amazon?

stoic island
#

wtf

night storm
#

Fans are way too high

stark tangle
#

im going off amazon price rn

#

ive never seen em cheap as 25

#

36 maybe

night storm
#

I have 4 NF-A14 PWM

#

They are 21

#

Right now

latent storm
#

@stoic island I move my steam library onto my hard drive, should I delete the folder on my SSD?

stoic island
#

no

#

leave it

#

revision one

latent storm
#

but it just copied the files

#

__

stoic island
#

you know you have games you'll want on your ssd sooo

stark tangle
#

@stoic island reason i did 3900 is cos they wanna build this rn

#

and you can't get 5xxx chips rn

stoic island
#

yeet

#

nor can you get 3080 rn

#

:P

stark tangle
#

damn u got a point

stoic island
latent storm
#

i know but i now have two copies of my steam folder

night storm
#

Move the folder see if it breaks it

#

Then if it doesn’t you should be fine to delete it

arctic jungle
#

@stoic island ty <3

night storm
#

But why not just get more ssd

latent storm
#

alright so it copied over fine but do i delete the steam folder in my ssd then drag over the files of the games that i play?

arctic jungle
#

think i'm still gonna do the pci-e 4.0 ssd bc that sounds good in terms of branding, and pick up asus mobo and corsair psu, bc the brands add that much more value

#

thx

night storm
#

Move the one you plan to delete before you delete it that way you can test if it makes your games not load. If the path it’s trying to use to start games is wrong.

#

That way if it isn’t working as planned you can put folder back

latent storm
#

all my games still launch after copying the folder to my hard drive

#

so now how do i move over individual games/?

hazy rune
#

Properties -> Local Files -> Move Install Folder

sacred knot
latent storm
hazy rune
#

In steam, not file explorer @latent storm

latent storm
#

ah

hazy rune
#

I have no idea where you got that screenshot

#

Right click a game

foggy hazel
#

@latent storm you were NOT supposed to actually move the steam install folder

#

that was the suggested action

lyric thistle
#

Steam has a simple guide to moving the installation

#

I haven't read up in the convo tho so that might not be the kind of moving they're trying to do SeriousEgg

ripe wedge
#

whats up

#

absolutely overkill

north folio
#

Nah 3090 cant run fortnite on 100fps

ripe wedge
#

yes but the 3090 isnt much more powerful than a 3080

#

id suggest getting a ryzen 5 5600x and a rtx 3070 or 3080 with 16gb of ram

#

that will absolutely get way more than 100fps

#

I play 1440p

#

im pretty sure its over 1000

#

you can tell the difference between a 60hz display and a 144hz display

#

trust me

#

yes

#

I have personally experienced it

#

i have a 144hz display

b520 isnt that old?

calm crypt

i think b450 is better between them both

foggy hazel

a520 you mean @little osprey ?

slim escarp

I know I’m building my first pc I wanna know what would be a better option

little osprey
#

@foggy hazel true thank you

slim escarp
#

A520 idk he said that because I said b sry

foggy hazel
#

the "problem" with that one is the pci-e 3.0 and IO in general

slim escarp
#

What one

foggy hazel

a520

lime forge

sorry for being late :P

little osprey

missed ze fun

Impeccable

@slim escarp have you had any choices on the pc at all?

slim escarp
#

Huh

#

Wdym

#

@little osprey

little osprey
#

like whats the budget

#

what have you chosen so far

slim escarp
#

550

#

I’ve chosen a ryzen 3 3100 and a gtx 1650 super

#

Ps I don’t need a storage because my cousin has an extra 500gb ssd he is giving me for $20 so pretty much my budget is 530 without storage

quasi snow
#

Budget around 1300

hazy rune
#

Why a wireless card with a wifi board?

quasi snow
#

oops I forgot to remove it

#

Pretend the wireless card isn't there

cursive wharf
#

What's the monitor? 1440p@144Hz?

vital warren
#

for 1300 you can squeeze in a 3080

quasi snow

Isn't that power supply cutting it a bit close

my pc has a current memory DDR4 at 2666MHz Dual Channel will this product you sell be compatible G.SKILL Ripjaws V Series 64GB (2 x 32GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2666 (PC4 21300) Desktop Memory Model F4-2666C18D-64GVK

foggy hazel
#

@vague stone we are not the customer service for newegg :)

vague stone
#

ok sorry abou that thanks

foggy hazel
#

but, if you tell us your mainboard we can help answer your question thou :)

vague stone
#

well its a DELL g5 5990 gaming pc

foggy hazel
#

2sec

#

thats a laptop?

vague stone
#

no desktop version

foggy hazel
#

hm

vague stone
#

currently has this in it 32GB DDR4 at 2666MHz Dual Channel

foggy hazel
#

aye, which is 2*16 sticks

vague stone
#

yes

#

it claims it can handle 64 gb in total

foggy hazel
#

IF you have 2 free slots in there

vague stone
#

so i figured two 32

#

i have four slots in total since i gave my ram away

foggy hazel
#

IF you have 4 slots total

#

you can just add 2 more sticks of 16

#

OR go with 2*32

#

in "theory" the 2*32 you listed should work

vague stone
#

cool thanks Naed I was just worried I have so issue with the make and model I chose to buy off newegg

foggy hazel
#

BUT, dell is not exactly super forthcoming with actual info :)

#

nah, in most cases, ram is ram :)

i hear you 🙂

and you are very welcome :)

@celest horizon plz

@coarse coral or someone, can you deal with that?

idle compass

Is this good

stoic island
#

it's art forks

#

it's art.

#

uhhh

#

no

#

gx2 sucks

idle compass
#

Okay

stoic island
idle compass
#

If the motherboard says micro atx does that mean it will be big in a regular atx case

stoic island
#

no

#

it fits

idle compass
#

Ok

#

Whats the difference between micro atc and just atx then

#

Are atx cases bigger

stoic island
#

one is small

#

one is bigger

#

mATX fits in ATX cases

#

ATX fits in ATX cases

#

mATX fits in mATX cases

#

ATX does not fit in mATX cases

idle compass
#

Should the mobo come with all the screws I need in order to install it

hazy rune
#

Yes, but ATX fits ON mATX cases

#

After all dont we buy cases to be a fancy pedestal?

#

@idle compass Usually that comes with your case

idle compass

@idle compass Usually that comes with your case
@hazy rune Oh k ty

waxen finch

.

lyric thistle
#

That's just my take on the build, when it comes to the few things I changed

#

Or two things lol

sacred knot
#

last time i put this psu it gave me this note tho

#

The ASRock B550 Phantom Gaming 4/ac ATX AM4 Motherboard has an additional 4-pin ATX power connector but the Corsair CX (2017) 550 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply does not. This connector is used to supply additional 12V current to the motherboard. While the system will likely still run without it, higher current demands such as extreme overclocking or large video card current draws may require it.

lyric thistle
#

The 3600 shouldn't need an extra 4 pin, it's 65 watt TDP, which the first 4 pin supplies

sacred knot
#

so i shouldnt worry about it?

lyric thistle
#

Noooooooo theo you ruined it

#

The one 4 pin supplies up to 120 watts I think? Not specific to the PSU but in general

sacred knot
#

btw if anything doesnt work out in the build, are parts returnable?

elfin burrow
#

depends where you bought, and a lot of places charge a restock fee (NewEgg is 15% i believe)

lyric thistle
#

The TDP of the 2060 is 160w, and with its 8 pin + the slot, a card can get up to 225w

sacred knot
#

so in simpler terms, its alright? the one u put?

winter marsh
#

@coarse coral I haven't watched Konosuba in awhile....

coarse coral
#

because?

lyric thistle
#

I'm trying to look up the PSU chart atm

#

The PSU should work well :)

sacred knot
#

thanks again mate

lyric thistle
#

Yw

#

What's the label on the side of a psu that shows the voltages/wattages called?

#

I can't find it online lmao

#

Anyway it's sufficient

I'm gonna go eat dinner

willow lichen
#

What's a good graphics card?

covert pewter
#

willow lichen
#

Hmm...

#

Bobox

#

covert pewter
#

Then ya a rtx 2060 will suit you good

willow lichen
#

Thats great

covert pewter
#

They are about 300-370

willow lichen
#

How about a good monitor?

covert pewter
#

I’m buying a msi 144 hz that is 180

willow lichen

2060 is a bit underpowered

proven knot

yeah

#

i have a question tho

#

i5 10400 or ryzen 5 3600

tender solar
#

Hi guys do you know the difference of Trident Z and Trident Z neo? what to pick for amd build

rugged olive
#

"No one is typing"

#

Just looks different......

ripe wedge
#

@tender solar the trident z neo has whitish/silver and grey basically and the trident z is only grey

#

like brushed metal look

#

I have the trident Z neo

slim escarp
#

Is the evga w3 450w bad

tender solar
#

@tender solar the trident z neo has whitish/silver and grey basically and the trident z is only grey
@ripe wedge Specs wise what to pick?

#

are they the same?

ripe wedge
#

yeah they are about the same I believe but spec wise I chose 3600 C16

#

2x16

#

so I have 32gb

tender solar
#

so I would pick the normal one?

ripe wedge
#

either or

desert gulch
#

Yea

ripe wedge
#

whats your cpu

slim escarp
#

Is the evga w3 450 psu good or bad

tender solar
#

Ryzen 5 3600

ripe wedge
#

@slim escarp its a tier D psu so for cheap systems

#

@tender solar ah id suggest getting 3600mhz ram

#

amd prefers higher speed ram

slim escarp
#

Would it fit into a 550 dollar system or

desert gulch
#

Jake what tier is a cxm?

ripe wedge
#

@slim escarp id suggest getting a CV450 then

#

its what I put in my brothers system and it runs fine

tender solar
#

@tender solar ah id suggest getting 3600mhz ram
@ripe wedge Is T-Force any good? Same specs with G.Skill

slim escarp
#

No I would get the cv550 then because cv450 is 5 dollars cheaper that the 550

ripe wedge
#

ah then get the cv550

slim escarp
#

I don’t even know why that is a thing but I’ll take it

ripe wedge
#

@tender solar I mean im sure tforce is fine but gskill has lifetime warrantee

#

so if it dies on ya they will replace

#

I think

#

pretty sure

jagged ember
#

Does lifetime warranty work if you get a bad bin

#

And want a better set

ripe wedge
#

I havent tried ocing my ram yet

jagged ember
#

I barely could lmao

#

Maybe I can get a replacement, idk

slim escarp
proven knot
#

in hate how cheap it is

slim escarp
#

What cheap

#

The build

#

?

#

Or the ram

proven knot
#

thats like $800 for me

slim escarp
#

Huh

proven knot
#

im just jealous that its cheap for you

desert gulch
#

Id honestly buy an optiplex and throw in a 1660 super imo

#

Foe that budget

gritty zenith
#

uh

#

with what psu

desert gulch
#

Stock

#

Itd work fine

gritty zenith
#

mmm whatev u say

desert gulch
#

Yup

proven knot
#

anyone know some black themed 3000 speed ram around $90 and below

#

aud

little osprey
#

Idk if this is the right place for this question but ROG AX11000 or Amplifi Alien

proven knot
#

no idea

slim escarp
#

Yes but an optiplex looks ugly and wouldn’t the cpu bottleneck if I did that

desert gulch
#

They can have i7

#

So not neccesarily

#

And looks or perf

#

Id go perf

slim escarp
#

Well I mean how much more perf would it get around

proven knot
#

perf?

little osprey
#

Performance

slim escarp
#

Performance

proven knot
#

oh

#

ok

slim escarp
#

Idk I’ve spent like 100 dollars on a desk and a decent bit on the rest of the setup I just don’t want the pc to make the setup look bad

desert gulch
#

Oke

slim escarp
#

All I need it to do is stream games over 60fps

jagged ember
#

if it's a previous gen i7

desert gulch
#

Yeah

jagged ember
#

It might not perform as well as a current gen i3

#

Ngl

desert gulch
#

Yeah

#

But still

#

Optiplex with gpu is best for budget imo

jagged ember
#

I mean

#

In that sense the used market is best for budget

desert gulch
#

Yeah

jagged ember
#

Which really it is but

#

I'm not familiar lol

desert gulch
#

Lol

jagged ember
#

And not everyone wants used parts
