Okay. Thanks. Not sure what to do now because I can't mount the rad on the side because of the GPU vertical mount and also the tempered glass side panel.

stoic island
#

you're doing GPU vert mount?

#

hmm

#

that hurts cooler compatbility

#

I can find you smth that'll still fit tho

pliant escarp
#

It really does. My max cooler height with vert is 76mm. And I'm pretty sure there'

#

Ooops

#

There's no way there's an air cooler under 76mm that can comfortably cool a 105 tdp chip.

little osprey
#

So I KINDA fixed my SSD issue

#

But at the same time messed up my Mobo

#

@pliant escarp you would be suprised

pliant escarp
#

Yeah?

I'm back

#

l12s on a 3950x in blender at basically 4ghz all core is about 72.5c after 25 minutes and theres even better options like black ridge v2 with a second fan

stoic island
pliant escarp
#

Awesome. Thanks for that. ❤️

#

Kinda nice that I don't have to worry about card sag now.

whole harbor
#

@stoic island would it be fine to buy my $750 pc

#

Then sell if i ever want to upgrade

#

to buy better?

#

Should i buy this prebuilt

#

its for $10000

#

i think its worth

i know that kid lmao

whole harbor
#

@balmy patio since

#

Am4 is getting trashed

#

how are we gonna use cpus like 3100

deep skiff
#

?

whole harbor
#

I was told soon

#

After amd realeases new cpus

balmy patio
#

wdym by “am4 is getting trashed”

whole harbor
#

Am4 was getting tradhed

#

like not produced

#

or something

deep skiff
#

its not like every am4 is gonna blow up there are still gonna be people selling them new or used

whole harbor
#

@whole harbor see here's the rationale- no point getting 500 chipset mobo, bc amd is dropping the AM4 socket for the next cpu. if ur spending 750$ on a PC, no reason to get a bigger psu. chances are ur not going to be buying parts that are way more expensive and power consuming in the future.

whats a good 512/500gb m.2 under $60

balmy patio
#

i dont think there’s many good ones under 60, unless there’s a sale

little osprey
#

ok

whole harbor
#

This is close

balmy patio
#

but the mp34, sx8200 pro, and sn750 are in the $60-70 mark, and they’re the ones they usually recommend

little osprey
#

ty

balmy patio
#

i think that there’s the p1 that’s usually in the low 60’s if you really don’t wanna waste much money

little osprey
#

i just didnt know where to look

#

hmm

#

is 256gb enough??

I’m building a pc. The specs are going to be
CPU:ryzen 7 3700x GPU is going to be sapphire 5600xt and for my motherboard it’s a msi b550 gaming edge WiFi. Thoughts?

Seems fine

#

just get 16gb 3200-3600 mhz ram

#

At least 600w psu

#

Just cause

80+bronze

#

i reccomend 500gb ssd at least

#

And get a good case with fans

#

Yeah I got a xpg gammix (8x2) 3600 MHz , a 650 psu, 1tb western digital blue and the NZXT H510 for my case. @whole harbor

oooooof

Do you recommend another case for around the same price?.The color scheme I’m going for is red and black.

@balmy ridge airflow really

#

for those parts

#

3700x is gonna get toasty

pearl blade
#

: damn da_heck that’s what I was gonna get

balmy ridge
#

What if I were to get the the successor to it the h510i instead.?

#

I am also thinking about the Lian Li LANCOOL II-X ATX Mid Tower Case

pearl blade
#

Maybe ask in the case channel this one is dead right now

#

Or general

#

I remember both are mediocre

#

I like them but for airflow they’re not good

fervent quail
#

honestly you dont need crazy airflow, just run a neg pressure fan set up on a decent case and you should be fine unless you plan to OC

#

one thing to keep in mind is a bigger case will typically cool better since there is more space which means better airflow and more fans

whole harbor
#

@balmy ridge dont get a noname brand

#

Lul

#

Wth

#

i have made that mistake several time while over budget and they may not be the best they will typically manage

the cheap fans are the worst part about em lol

woven pumice

#

Lowkey the 1650 super overclocked is like no difference

balmy ridge
#

@fervent quail my budget for a case is $100 and I’m also buying fans for it

fervent quail
#

@woven pumice whats your budget, what games, and what CPU were you planning to use?

#

also it is really worth getting a SSD, even if tis a small one just for the OS

woven pumice
#

@fervent quail for now im planning to buy the gbu then i'll continue the rest, my budget is 600 usd for the gbu, is that alright? and for cpu my friends told me to get i7 8086K 4 GHz 6-Core Processor but im not sure about it yet

fervent quail
#

wow so looks like you are going all in on a build

#

is it a workstation as well or gaming the only high demand task?

woven pumice
#

gaming mainly

whole harbor
#

4k?

#

$650 build

#

Its quit good

#

quite

fervent quail
#

not sure how urgent your timeframe is but it may be worth waiting a bit and do a build around Zen3 and then go either nvidia 30 series or big navi depending on the benchmarks. AMD is the best deal for your money atm as far as the CPU goes, you will be able to get something much better.

woven pumice
fervent quail
#

That or of you go with the zen3 cpu you may be able to save enough to get a 3080

#

But wait until big navi releases

#

May be better than Nvidia for cheaper

woven pumice
#

alrighty

#

thank you alot

fervent quail
#

I would personally look at maybe some more ram but not bad

#

Also throw it all into a build site to make sure there are no compatibility issues

#

Also makes it easier to share your build specs

unique vault
#

Sorry this was the spec i send to a shop

#

Also should i go for an aio?

#

My room is 30-32 degree celcius

fervent quail
#

Do you plan to oc?

languid sundial
#

Can you guys give me a reason why ryzen 5 2600 is still good in 2020

#

I am planning on building a PC and my budget is tight

fervent quail
#

It a cheap?

#

Honestly not bad, just not really top of the line and it really starting to get outclassed

unique vault
#

@fervent quail the 5600x is good for oc right?

fervent quail
#

Just depends on what you intend to use the build for i guess

#

It should be, but may not be necessary unless you really wanna push it

#

Only really worth it for workbench rendering machines or if you really want to squeeze every last frame out of a game

junior crescent
#

Could someone make a list for 2600 Aud or gaming, streaming and editing

sharp tundra
#

If you have a couple dollars left over, I would get some fans to throw in there

#

I saved that from the other day when you asked, but you disappeared and I didn't know your tag

#

@junior crescent also, the one I gave you was for the $2700 budget you gave me the other day, I don't know if you still have that budget, but if not I'll change the list

winged echo
#

Does anyone know a place to uprade pc? I have decent specs (i5 4570, 16gb RAM, Nvidia 1650 4GB, 500gb ssd and 1tb hdd) but the case is ugly (not even a gaming pc case) and i would like some rgb on the build. If I were to redo it myself, how much time and/or knowledge would it take to swap out chassis and add rbg?

#

also UK ^

#

I cant afford too much so if it is not too more difficult to do it myself I wouldn't mind giving it a try

fervent quail
#

@winged echo its pretty simple, watch a few tutorials on youtube and if you feel confident enough give it a go. It will def save you money and in my opinion is a good experience for any geek to have. You wont even need to mess with the cpu at all which is the biggest pain when building. Just make sure you feel you are able to complete the task before you start it.

#

also if your mobo has all its pins and the like labled (which most do now a days) it is as simple as reading the lables and matching them to the cables

#

if it was a prebuild it may be a different story but all individually sold boards that i have seen have everything clearly labled

winged echo
#

I’m not sure what it is because it was refurbished (grade A) but what are the chances of me breaking it? How much time also

fervent quail
#

depends on how much time you spend with cable management and lighting but it shouldnt take you more than a few hours even though its your first time and you will be wanting to take it slow.

#

an experienced builder could swap cases in 10 min if the cable management is easy

winged echo
#

Ok thanks so much I’ll have a look at tutorials 🙂

fervent quail
#

you able to pop the side of your case open and take a pic of the bottom of the board where all the small wires are connected so i can see if its labled?

winged echo
#

Yup gimme a sec

fervent quail
#

lol i honestly cant see much to help ya here sorry

#

if you get a nicer case most of them these days will have room to rout cables behind the motherboard to keep the main section clear, thats how you end up with all those nice looking builds.

#

just check out some tutorials

sharp tundra
#

Bruh

winged echo
#

I think k they must be labelled because I do see front USB heading towards the front of the case

#

Hmm ok

sharp tundra
#

Does that case even have a glass side panel?

winged echo
#

Nope

#

It’s like an office case I think

sharp tundra
#

So why tf do you want rgb?

winged echo
#

I’m getting a new case too

sharp tundra
#

For the dust bunnies to look at it?

#

Oh okay

fervent quail
#

you may want to stay away from glass panels tbh with the look of the hardware

sharp tundra
#

I mean, tbh, you need more than a case and some lighta

winged echo
#

It is ugly but I can’t afford too much 😅

sharp tundra
#

Darkness is that pcs greatest ally with that green PCB

#

And is that Ram DDR3?

fervent quail
#

all personal preference but frankly it may be better to save up that money for some hardware updates or save for a new rig instead of just trying to make this one look good

sharp tundra
#

Oh boi

winged echo
#

Hmm ok

sharp tundra
#

Agreed

winged echo
#

Yup ddr3

sharp tundra
#

Get yourself some monies and then we'll throw something together for ya

fervent quail
#

i always try to go for both functionality and appearance but if i have to choose, functionality will always win.

winged echo
#

Yea but there isn’t much online for the motherboard so I don’t know what is compatible

sharp tundra
#

His pc ain't winning in either of those fields

fervent quail
#

it looks like that rig is on its way out the door and will be more or less useless for any modern gaming within the next few years

sharp tundra
#

Bruh, there's like a 1000 mobos out there

winged echo
#

I can’t afford much but I thought i5 gtx 1650 would be enough for now

sharp tundra
#

Whats a reasonable budget for you?

#

Like something you think you can save for?

fervent quail
#

its running an i5 now?

winged echo
#

Well I spent £380 for this so maybe £500

#

Yeah

#

For extras not for a new one

fervent quail
#

how long have you had this for?

winged echo
#

I’d prefer to keep this as I only got it recently

#

4 weeks?

sharp tundra
#

I'm building you a new one bro

fervent quail
#

oof thats tough

winged echo
#

Had it since the 22nd oct

fervent quail
#

hardest part is since its ddr3 it will cost more to upgrade the ram than if it was ddr4

winged echo
#

Ah k

sharp tundra
#

Cause old yeller there isnt yelling for shet except for the firedepartment

fervent quail
#

hate to say it but you may have made an oof buying this one

winged echo
#

I couldn’t afford too much more

sharp tundra
#

I recommend trying to sell it to your local school, they have more capabilities with it than you do.

fervent quail
#

could have built one from scratch for around 5-700

winged echo
#

At that point I wasn’t sure about pc

#

Only started watching videos recently

sharp tundra
#

Why didn't you talk to us first smh

#

I'm hurt

winged echo
#

Only found this when looking at videos lol

fervent quail
#

yeah not sure what advice to give here

#

def not worth upgrading to add lights though

sharp tundra
#

So 500 quid is a good budget for you?

winged echo
#

For upgrade yeah

sharp tundra
#

Bruh

winged echo
#

For a new one? A grand but it will take a while

sharp tundra
#

We have discussed this

fervent quail
#

if you can score a used gaming case that could privide better airflow maybe worth it but honestly you would be better off saving for a new one

sharp tundra
#

Yes a new one

winged echo
#

Ok I’ll have a look but it’ll take a while to save up so I’m not sure

sharp tundra
#

So £1000?

winged echo
#

Yea

fervent quail
#

if you had saved the 380 and mixed it with the 500 for upgrades you could have built a new pretty decent rig sadly

sharp tundra
#

Okay, give me a sec.

fervent quail
#

you live and learn i guess

winged echo
#

I suppose lol

#

Guess I should go amd right

fervent quail
#

would be lying if i said i hadnt messed up a few times when first starting out as well

#

yeah for the pricepoint amd is your best friend

sharp tundra
#

You just wanna game on it?

fervent quail
#

especially if you swing for a zen3

winged echo
#

Primarily, thinking of streaming

fervent quail
#

they are dominating rn

sharp tundra
#

K, I got you

fervent quail
#

yeah 1k should get you a pretty decent streaming rig

#

you wanna stream just from the pc or also console/external input?

#

oh cool i ranked up

winged echo
#

Pc

fervent quail
#

well its almost 5 in the morning and i got work tomorrow so since nomad has got you covered here it looks like im headin off.

winged echo
#

Ok cya thanks

fervent quail
#

best of luck to you @winged echo

winged echo
#

👋

fervent quail
#

make sure to post pics of the new build if you go that rout once its done

#

share your art

winged echo
#

Might be a long time but I will for sure

fervent quail
#

also make sure to cable manage it or you will lose all friends here XD

winged echo
#

Lol

#

What parts do you recommend

fervent quail
#

i believe that @sharp tundra is putting together a build list for you as we speak

sharp tundra
#

Indeed

#

You'll like it

winged echo
#

Oh nice

fervent quail
#

also if you have the desk space and a little money left over at the end, try to get a low rez used monitor just to have a second

#

makes a world of difference, especially when streaming

winged echo
#

Yeah I’m thinking of going for two

#

Getting a 27” around Xmas

fervent quail
#

a word of warning though, after a while it will be impossible to go back to one

winged echo
#

Lol

fervent quail
#

i had to get a portable usb monitor for when im working on my laptop

winged echo
#

Haha

fervent quail
#

also if you are out of desk space and the smaller monitor has a vesa mount on it, you can get something like this to save space

winged echo
#

I should have enough space

sharp tundra
fervent quail
#

not bad but i thought the b450 chipset wasnt getting a bios update for zen3

winged echo
#

Looks good

woven pumice
#

@fervent quail do you know what kind of cpu i should use like specifically? cause i’ll buy it now while waiting for the gbu to be in stock

icy lichen
#

Ngl the rgb is making me sweat in this list

sharp tundra
#

Its not

fervent quail
#

could have sworn it was only the b550 and x570

sharp tundra
#

But he can worry about that later

fervent quail
#

fair enough

#

@woven pumice do you have a mobo yet?

sharp tundra
#

B450 is still very relevant and used in a lot of builds, its just IF, he chooses to get zen 3 in the future, he'll have to upgrade his mobo

icy lichen
#

^ yeah for sure, totally agree

winged echo
#

should i dongrade the psu? it is more than the estimated wattage and will probably save cash

fervent quail
#

na

icy lichen
#

Well if youwant to save cash, i would strip off some rgb rather than watts

fervent quail
#

honestly once you go below 650 its actually harder to find a good psu and it wont save you much

sharp tundra
#

I could get away with a 550watt, but multiple wise men once said, don't cheap out on your psu, cause its a very costly mistake

winged echo
#

hm ok

fervent quail
#

plus it will help you be upgrade proof if you decide to get a better gpu or something

sharp tundra
#

Right now, that build i gave you is perfect for streaming and gaming.

fervent quail
#

nomad it correct, you can cut a lot of corners but the psu should NEVER be one

#

one bad thing there can fry the entire rig

sharp tundra
#

First thing I would upgrade though is the cooler, but the stock cooler will do just fine.

#

And its rgb

winged echo
#

what windows should I get? there is a lot of options but they all look the same

sharp tundra
#

Windows 10

icy lichen
#

Lol yeah the stock 2700x fan is a neat little thing, but it should handle

#

Yeah 10, you can just get a key from ebay, done it dozens of times

fervent quail
#

unless you are doing massive sustained load or OC it should be fine

winged echo
#

yeah i know windwos 10 but there are many types

sharp tundra
#

I would suggest downloading windows 10 from your current pc onto a flash drive, and purchasing a key off ebay or somethong

icy lichen
#

Or not at all, but a watermark in the corner is not a good look for a streamer

sharp tundra
#

You just need windows 10 home

fervent quail
#

i think i actually have student edition since i got a free copy when i was in school XD

eager dawn
#

32bit Oh_No

winged echo
#

im getting 64 lol

sharp tundra
#

Nah, 64bit

eager dawn
#

im joking never get 32

fervent quail
#

dont think 10 even has 32 bit

sharp tundra
#

It does

eager dawn
#

it does

fervent quail
#

thought they got rid of it

eager dawn
#

i dunno why though

winged echo
#

i have it on my laptop

fervent quail
#

how much ram you have?

winged echo
#

atm? 16gb

sharp tundra
#

So rough estimate, how long will it take you to meet your budget?

fervent quail
#

@woven pumice i take back my statement about getting a ryzen. since you have the mobo you are locked into that intel socket sadly.

winged echo
#

6 months maybe? saving up for other things as well

sharp tundra
#

So that way I know when ill have to come back to help you out with building

#

Oh boi

winged echo
#

yea a long time

sharp tundra
#

Thats a while

woven pumice
#

@fervent quail which one specifically?

sharp tundra
#

Well, that list will still be relevant 6months from now luckily

winged echo
#

hope so lol

fervent quail
#

someone able to give melly a hand? its 5am and i gotta sleep before work lol

sharp tundra
#

It will

winged echo
#

hopefully there will be price drops

sharp tundra
#

Most likely

icy lichen
#

Probably with zen 3 coming

sharp tundra
#

Especially on that 1660 ti

#

When the 30series becomes more relevant, the price of every other card will drop

eager dawn
#

"The G.Skill Trident Z Neo Memory operating voltage of 1.5 V exceeds the AMD Zen 3 CPU recommended maximum of 1.35 V+7% (1.444 V)."

#

can i ignore this warning

sharp tundra
#

Idk

#

I don't see why there would be any problems

#

The power draw really comes down to your psu, I don't think other parts care what power usage is being used, as long as there's enough of it for them

eager dawn
#

i thought so too

#

but the warning has me a lil worried

sharp tundra
#

Maybe wait for a techie to get online before doing anything, they'll know more than me

sharp tundra
#

Lol

#

@cursive wharf someone needs your help

sharp tundra
#

Well, I tried

#

I think I broke my rgb app

#

And an aorus one, but the aorus one is broke

icy lichen
#

It brokey?

sharp tundra
#

Yeah, my aorus wallpaper won't stay with the rgb on it

#

It works if i have it always running, but I only want it running on my home and lock screen

#

Eh its no biggie, ROG is cool too

glass depot
#

Is anyone here

icy lichen
#

Me i guess

#

@glass depot You need any help on any pc building?

glass depot
#

yea

#

thank uuuu

and I was kind of dumb and just got what my male friends told me to get 💀

icy lichen

Oh can i see what specs you have then?

glass depot
#

ywa

icy lichen

Well that plus a budget you want to hit idealy

glass depot

MSI tomahawk b450

Ryzen 7 3700x

Corsair vengeance 16gb

Some 1 tb ssd which I regret buying bc I just heard about NVMEs

The NZXT mid tower the white and black one

I’m probably forgetting something

icy lichen

And i woulnt worry sata 3 ssds really arent thaaat much slower compared to nvme

glass depot

I was planning to try and get the 3070 but it wouldn’t let me check out :(

icy lichen

it’s so painful looking at the parts in my closet and not being able to build

#

OU shoot

icy lichen

Let me check

glass depot

do u know the price range?

icy lichen

Pretty simular to the 3000 cards if not slightly cheeper (exept for the cheapest one i think) ill try to find an image

glass depot

I was gonna settle for the 2070 super and I couldn’t even find it anywhere

AMD RX 6000 pricing

Just copied and pasted from a site talking about the prices

#

These are supposedly gonna run better than the rtx 3000 cards, so if you can get one, you well end up with a better deal in the end

glass depot
#

Yay i can’t wait to pay so much in cad ☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

#

thank u so much though

#

watch I’m gonna be up so early just to not get it again

icy lichen
#

Oof, well i think they havent anounced the preorder period, so i would keep tabs on amd socials for when they open the flood gates

glass depot
#

ok!! Tysm u were so helpful

clever wolf
#

elo?

icy lichen
#

@open peak well im not Australian, thats for sure, but for around $1300 usd thats not too amazing(but not terrible ofcourse, thats still a pretty good rig) i have heard the pc market there is a bit harsh, but im not too familair to know ehat would be a good deal for Australia

icy lichen
#

@open peak axtually it is pretty solid from what i can see on part picker, the most i could shave off is 100 bucks with some semi compromises, so it should be alright

open peak
#

Yeah I'm still looking around so I can probably shave off a lil bit

#

But so far it looks fairly good to me

icy lichen
#

The main thing that spooks me tho is the chokey case and one fan, but im just a airflow freak

open peak
#

The case comes with two fans already

#

So I think it should be good though I can always grab another one or two if needed

icy lichen
#

Yeah it should be fine, anything beyond 2 well placed fans, there isnt too much gain

#

But i guess in this case, having some extra fans in the front should help a lot

woven pumice
#

Can someone help me

#

with my build

open peak
#

Yeah the airflow of the case worried me a lil

icy lichen
#

Sure whats up?

open peak
#

Since I read a lot of differing reviews

#

Some said the airflow was fine, others said it was terrible

icy lichen
#

Hmm yeah, thats why i always srick to really high airflow cases

open peak
#

Yeah I mostly went for the case cause I love the look of it

woven pumice
icy lichen
#

Nr600 and meshify C are always a go to for me atleast if they are on a good deal

open peak
#

Pretty sure it should be alright though as long as I got some good fans at the front

cobalt tiger
#

What’s up guys

#

Does anyone know the best of the best ryzen 9 5950x motherboard?

icy lichen
#

Wait you need a cpu? Or gpu? Theres already a cpu on your list so idk if you already got it and the gpu is just missing

elfin jackal
cobalt tiger
#

Plz anyone can help me choose the best of the best motherboards for ryzen 9 5950x

icy lichen
#

@open peak i always go arctic p12 for pressure optimised spots like these, but i think they might be a bit overpriced in Australia

open peak
#

I'll have a look

cobalt tiger
#

Tanks

glass depot
#

Woah 9 fans?

icy lichen
#

Ywah i was just gonna say that lol

cobalt tiger
#

I have heard the ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Formula was the best motherboard for ryzen 9 5950x but am not sure if I should get that 1

open peak
#

@icy lichen Actually the price looks fairly reasonable

#

Cheaper than the ones I was planning on getting

icy lichen
#

Oh nice, arctic makes some really good fans

open peak
#

So yeah I might go for those since they're optimised for static pressure

icy lichen
#

P12 would be perfect for a restricted case like that

open peak
#

Should I grab like

#

two for the front?

icy lichen
#

Yeah, but them on the bottom of the front aswell and that should be enough

open peak
#

So it would be enough to just have one on the bottom?

#

And then just one of the stock fans on top

#

or should I get two and just have them as far down as possible

icy lichen
#

As far down as possible

open peak
#

Alright cool I'll do that

icy lichen
#

You wouldnt want fresh air comming in from the fromt top just to leave at the top, it wouldnt matter too much, but when running a limited fan set up in an already ristricted case, haveing the airflow come from the bottom front to the top back is ideal

open peak
#

And the case is fairly small as well so the heat should rise and move out the back fairly easily

#

Alright cool thank you, that only ends up being like 3 dollars more than what I had so that works out nicely

weak field

a 5900x is 700 euros, which is abt 850$

a 5900x is 700 euros, which is abt 850$
@arctic jungle it's surprisingly cheap

especially for the 3080

trust me it is

there's no EU shop offering less

and if i don't want to pay $200 for 3 month delivery, it's the best way to buy parts

wait what

you have to wait more than 3 months?

if you dont pay 200$

fading kiln
#

nah that's just me exaggerating

#

most of the time i buy from amazon i get some kind of books or small gadgets

#

I gotta pay like $60 for the shipping plus 30% - 50% of what i bought in customs

so for like small stuff that you cant find in EU it's fine

but for a 3k pc it's not

If youre going for a b450 and want wifi I would recommend the aorus pro b450 mobo

I am trying to keep the build close to 800 dollars.

I don’t believe that the Mobo will fit in my price range,

weak field
#

for the monitor aswe?

aswell

Yeah that list looks prerty good, obviously the moniter is kinda over the top, but im guessing thats what you want
