go for it ig
Ok
so is the 3600 better price to performance than 3700x?
What’s the difference between a bronze power supply and a gold
Hm? That's just efficiency rating, doesn't really matter, the quality of the actual model matters
it's the level of efficiency of the power supply
midrange builds I like ion+
CX is cheaper :p
Anyone seen any 6800xt online yet?
i've never actually seen one of corsair's rgb psus
Yea I haven't seen them being sold yet
The Rmx 80+ gold cost lest by a penny
hey guys do you think it would be smart to start off with on 16gb stick of memory with the intention of upgrading later?
Do not go with a single stick
It's a bad idea
Go at least with 2x8gb and upgrade later
@stoic island do you know of any better looking cases than that?
mac pro case ;)
@ornate solstice it's just good airflow
I'd rather get performance than looks first
Wait so the case that I had doesn’t have good airflow?
I've heard the dlm cases are hard to work with, and it only comes with one fan so
Mx330-g air comes stock with 2 fan front and one back
Wait it comes with one fan I thought it didn’t come with any
If it comes with none that's even worse
Well yeah but I was buying the rgb fans
I’m still buying those uphere rgb fans I wasn’t counting them as part of the full price
Ima look for cases and then tell you and then you let me know if it’s good or not
Wait why?
I am a first time gaming PC builder and have some questions about the hardware that I am getting and if I will be getting the most out of my oarts
parts*
Personally I don't like messing with rgb, and uphere seems iffy
Well uphere is the usable one asiahorse is the really iffy one
I’ve already seen like 4 YouTube reviews they say its actually pretty good for its price
keep mixing the two up
And I like rgb I’ve built a complete rgb build for my friend and it was a nightmare but fun
rgb psu is too far lol
u should get ikea rgb strips and just stick them inside ur case
Yes you can actually
https://promotions.newegg.com/nepro/19-0630/index.html
.
(April fools joke btw)
ahahah lol i was gonna say
I was so scared for a second and then I saw 100 cores and I was so happy
its alittle pricey dont u think
that's a great deal, it includes lawbreakers!
Shroud
best part
ya
oh god
my sister needs to stop putting the switch in the dock
ignore the dust, it's an old lamp/shelf
OH GOD ITS UPSIDE DOWN
@stoic island can u check out my parts list im finally getting a pc
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7TVyF8 gpu is gonna be a 3060ti hopefully
Alr alr ty ty
Idk if i can afford an ssd actually
Im alr over budget could install one in the future
you're probably better off getting an SSD first than a hard drive
so that you don't need to reinstall windows
Good or bad deal?
What's cad
Oh lmaoo no😭
@stoic island I think I’m just going to spend the extra like $5 and get the Cooler Master MasterBox MB311L mainly cause it looks cool and I’ve heard a lot of good things about it
is it worth the extra money for the more expensive 5700XT?
No
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CLHtCz so this is good?
I out the ballistix ram and a ssd
even on sale, it's still decently more expensive
Idk
where are you buying from?
And what brand
that sounds reasonable
yeah the samsung ones are reliable
Pog
looks like it has heaps of great reviews
you could wait for a sale on the samsung ones as well
they drop a decent amount when on sale
Pogu
Quick question so the case I’m buying comes with 2 fans should I buy another fan that is the same as the 2 that comes with it or 1 from a different brand
Ok
are nzxt mobos decent?
b550 aorus pro ac or b550 aorus elite ax?
why not elite ax :P
Not sure what the differences are since both are similar price
one has wifi, one doesn't?
they both have wifi
ah
one has wifi 6 while other has wifi 5 if that matters
ehh
wifi 6 supposedly faster
i don't have any wifi 6 capable devices though
so it's kind of like a future investment thing
Pro supposedly has better vrm i think
what's the best monitor below 100$
not a professional at mobos, i dunno how much google will help either lol
Yeah that would be nice
Also is there a difference between the elite ax and elite ax v2
lmfao
@tawdry lance v2 looks to have worse vrms for some reason
elite ax og and pro ac have the exact same VRMs
I can get the pro ac for 10 usd less than the elite ax. Should I still get the elite ax
elite ax has better wifi i think
alright I'm back
time to look at specs in more detail
looks like elite better idea
I should also add that I’d like a cooler that doesn’t need to be replaced should I grab say a 9900k in the next four months or so. Hypothetically speaking.
Also, where do you see the elite ax for 160 i only see it for 170
lemme see
mr1111 do you have a 700$ build by any chance?
Aorus pro ac is 160 and aorus ax is 170 for me
Better wifi, USB 3.1 internal header.
Whats the best way to see the what internal headers are on the mobo?
spec page
Wait why did my first comment/pics not post. Ppl prolly like tf is this guy talking about?🤣
I set up a fan curve in msi afterburner and pressed apply but it doesnt do anything, any ideas?
hm?
My MoBo is MATX, and I’m pretty sure the case is ATX, but I’d like to upgrade my cooler sometime soon. Any suggestions? Or maybe advicebb by on how to properly check dimensions so I know what I get will fit? I was thinking a 240 AIO, front mounted with the middle and top fans. Idk
afterburner fan curve is only for GPU
@snow wagon what case?
and CPU?
Easiest way to find dimensions is to just look up the case and find it
Heading to best buy today to buy some parts
Pogu
😛
The the p400a come with fans
Am I blind because I can not find where it says that the aorus elite ax has internal 3.1 usb header
@tawdry lance even on the Newegg spec page, usb 3.2 internal header
Ah I'm disappointed
still have to play at 60hz with my new build until I can afford a new monitor

any recommendations for a good budget 144hz monitor?
@glacial umbra 1080p?
yeah
1080p
@arctic jungle that one looks decent, thanks
is the acer nitro vg240y any good?
I just saw that one on sale
Wait don't both aorus pro ac and elite ax have internal 3.2 usb headers though? so how does the elite ax have the advantage mr111?
will a ryzen 5 3600 bottleneck a 3080
wondering for 1440p 144hz
2k is ideal resolution
yes
very small bottleneck
and you can always upgrade ur cpu in the future
yeah true
So this display thing with my build still dont work
hey all - I'm needing to build a new machine - hoping this is the best week to do so, but really need some recommendations for hardware that 'goes' together.. and video card thoughts - as I can't find much of anything in stock?
okay thanks antago
any constructive advice is welcome - thanks - I need to build something fast and VR worthy - gaming and video editing.
<- Canada
okay so canada computers has a lot in stock rn
lol they have a 3080 near me
anyways
oH! I am north of the GTA so hopefully they do!
really it just needs a very heafty video card
where in the gta??
currently getting by on a 1080 but it's days are numbered
yeah that could be upgraded
we are an hour northeast of GTA, but they will ship to us
lol man im IN the gta
i was aat newegg today (hence trying this discord) and found almost no video cards of 20 or 30 series in stock
I'll check canada comps - thank you!
yeah they usually have a good amount
for vr though i dont really know what would be good
i know that the radeon 6000 series has better multi threaded rendering than the nvidia 3000 series so idk
Wait don't both aorus pro ac and elite ax have internal 3.2 usb headers though? so how does the elite ax have the advantage mr111?
I don't see a 3.2 internal on the pro ac
I think most Canadians are in the GTA lol
will ax wifi chip even help if my internet is slower than 400mbps?
~400mbps is just ~50MB/s
if you ever upgrade to better wifi than 50MB/s, which is quite likely
you'll want better wifi chip.
(mbps is megabits per second, MB/s is megabytes per second, and MB/s is the number you commonly see with like game download speeds on steam)
the 802.11 ac protocol depending on the wifi chip could do ~1200mbps
but that chip on the pro ac, is quite slow.
700-800?
Alright i need some help. So last night i finished my build and it was working fine. Displayed, got windows running but after like 10minutes it just stopped displaying. Vga light on mobo turned on. I got blue screened by windows three times now. And now it wont even display
oof
um idk bro
wait also are the fans on the top of the case suposed to be exhaust or intake
Exhaust i think
but then whats the point of the dust filter on the top
Good morning guys! I need some advice on which parts to buy from Newegg to build my new PC. I run charts of stocks and currency all day long. I have six monitors I use. Have few algos that crunch data calculations throughout the day. However, I have to use a smart computer from campus for in depth data crunch.
ok so what do you have at the moment
and does it have to be newegg?
I was just told to get a 16gb RAM. I have found some 16 (2x8) and 32 (2x16 and 4x8)
and also how much is your budget
It does not have to be on Newegg. I seeking sources with holiday deals but I am not limited to that
oh ok what is your budget tho
$1500+
Is the msi 5700xt mech oc a good gpu?
yea im not good with high budgets
I'll think of something
I have never use the website before
I’m not very technical when it comes to parts. I don’t know much about msi
It's good for compatibility
@ornate solstice There's a reason that it's cheap :)
thin heatsink
What about the asrock phantom gaming d oc 5700xt
yes please
Can i get some help?
@little osprey reset cmos maybe
building it as soon as possible
hm okay
Tried that
try to get another GPU to try
mr111 i have a quick question
It displays but once it starts loading into windows it just starts rebooting the system. Not the whole pc it just turns off display and then turns on and keeps doing that
is it a healthy fan layout
to have 2 intake in the front one exhaust on the back and then 2 exhaust on the top
@charred herald Do you need wifi or will you use ethernet?
hm
@little osprey you sure it's not the monitor/cable?
i use both. could you elaborate why you are asking?
I have an HP prebuilt and i want to upgrade the case because the thermals are horrible. The Motherboard wouldnt work in the new case so, if I replcaced the Mobo would that effect anything i kept in the system?
@charred herald All motherboards have ethernet. Some motherboards, usually slightly more expensive, have wifi.
Is there any way to delete windows from bios? Or sum
you should be able to wipe the drive from bios
Doing that rn
hm
Now im gonna try to reinstall windows
i see. thank you for the clarification. I believe i can probably pay for the additional fee for the wifi. wouldn't it best to have this option available in case i need it? idk
@charred herald Yea, next, you have 6 monitors that use HDMI/DVI correct?
tryna think how I want to try and go about displaying them
looks like they are hdmi and vga
Yeah no i get to the windows loading logo and then blue screen or it just reboots
So, would you rather have 2 GPUs and plug everything in directly, or just get one GPU with displayport, and then get like a DP to HDMI hub?
Also cpu light is on for some reason
weird
Then it goes to vga sometimes
Reset cmos a couple of times already correct?
Yeah when i do cpu light turns off but still i cant get past windows logo loading screen without it restarting
is this question for me??
Yes
It's fine
i really do not mind how it is connected as long as it is good quality picture
this is overpriced imo, this should be more like 40$, but something like this
https://www.newegg.com/c2g-54293-displayport-1-2-to-dual-hdmi/p/N82E16812095402
(as a splitter/hub thing)
this would compensate for the lack of hdmi ports of the gpu i am assuming?
On a single GPU yea.
Multi-GPU can get fairly messy, so I'd prefer a single GPU and then use splitter/hubs
So i get to this screen and then it either i get bsod or it just keeps restarting
this option will not have a lagging effect on the charts?
In bios it works fine just after that is when it happens
Yes i live in the US
hm? on any decent hub/splitter thing, no
@little osprey Picture of the inside of your case?
i have a usb hub in the past and it was HORRIBLE even though it was a good quality one from BBY
huh interesting
god damn these hubs are expensive
Now its the boot light thats on -_-
Is an ssd needed for gaming
@charred herald Welp, to start off, take a look at this list, this is really overkill, but it's something to start on. I'm currently looking into how hubs and all really work so I'll get that to you soon, that GPU has 3 displayport outputs and 1 HDMI output.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/nm4V4d
Or is an hdd better
HDD is never better
Alr alr ty
@stoic island haha i am a little ashamed to ask this because i feel like i am not cool ... what is the definition of the term "overkill" ?
Over-specced for the tasks you'll likely be doing
in terms of pc, when your build or component is much more powerful than what you intended to use it for
For example, 10600k is pretty damn strong for just putting up charts and such, and doing some pretty heavy calculations
NH-U12a is extremely over-specced for just running a 10600k stock
that's an extremely capable cooler
The motherboard is too, I was a bit lazy and choose a decent looking wifi board
Ram wise, 32gb is likely over-specced, but if you want to pull up a bunch of different things on 6 different screens, it might be nice
so I hear that amd is better than intel
And it's all out of stock ;)
that's why I asked "when do you plan on building" at the start
my laptops ran on Ryzen
a lot of people simply can't wait the two months or even more until 5600x and such comes back in stock
where do you guys recommend buying windows at for the cheapest possible
do they all work
ik but i hate the messahe in the bottom left lol everything looks better without it
@charred herald For all the new ryzen chips, 5600x, 5800x, 5900x, 5950x, it's al out of stock, and constantly selling out once they restock
It's a bothersome affair to get any one of them
hmm is the higher the number the better or more capable the product?
are the ryzen 7 any good?
kinda of yes, and yes
@charred herald I suggest you don't look at products that way, it leads to confusion down the line when you look deeper into things.
"r3 r5 r7 r9" and "i3 i5 i7 i9" at the end of the day are just marketing terms
Doesn't say much about the product
for example, I would much rather have a r5 5600x than a r7 1700x
@charred herald so, from looking so far, I'm thinking either 3 of these,
https://www.amazon.com/C2G-54292-DisplayPort-Monitor-Splitter/dp/B07S5LXHPR/
or two of this thing.
https://www.amazon.com/gofanco-Prophecy-DisplayPort-Monitor-Splitter/dp/B083NMF7QS/
The main deciding factor is what exact monitors are you trying to run?
what do you mean>
oh i see! so the higher the 4 digits number the more capable
right?
@charred herald I'm sorry to say, but PC parts aren't that simple :(
It's better to do a model to model comparison instead of saying "higher number = better"
The 5600xt is not work 320
how much do u think it should be?
i am prob not buying these yet
waiting for price to go down
a 2060 is better and at 300 dollars
i cant find a 2060 for 300
Because next gen is coming out
Was going to buy 3070 but I would need new monitor, psu. I’m probably going to by a 5700xt or 2060
Anyone have a better recommendation for a modular keyboard besides the GMMK
this shows my level of knowledge lol oops
@gaunt igloo nice sticker on your power supply
so should i wait until the Ryzen restock?
or can i build one with the intel and then swap the intel for the ryzen
wait for ryzen restock
so you dont need a new mobo and so that u dont have to save the cooler boxes and mounts
Would you reccomend the 4000d airflow or lancool215
Hm.
4000D
okay i updated the list https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3VCQy4 how do u guys feel about this?
@charred herald You could get a 3600/3600xt now and upgrade your processor later as long as your mobo will support zen3
hello
🙋🏼♂️
how is everybody doing today
no complaints to report today
i am a first time builder and i jsut put together a parts list, i was wondering if anyone could tell me if these parts are compatible
mobo?
asrock b365 pro4
Motherboard.
oh ok
how can i verify if the mobo will be compatible?
@stoic island gave me a list of parts to buy.
You could swap these out for the CPU, cooler and Mobo in @stoic island build if you wanted to go ryzen. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/7sFKHx/amd-ryzen-5-3600xt-38-ghz-6-core-processor-100-100000281box https://pcpartpicker.com/product/4mjNnQ/asrock-b550-phantom-gaming-4-atx-am4-motherboard-b550-phantom-gaming-4
Roughly same for your budget
here is my parts listhttps://newegg.io/04a97d9
@cerulean stream That RAM is overpriced. FYI, it’s much easier to build in pcpartpicker
What do I need to change
what would have better performance a 3900xt or a 10900k?
ill take a look at pcpartpicker
@upbeat lodge Might change your mobo as it’s a microatx
Mobo??
@still bay Depends on what you’re doing
Gaming and editing
Motherboard @upbeat lodge
just gaming basically
MAYBE light streaming or video editing
but im sure a 10900k can handle that
wow pcpartpicker is already saving me money! @cursive magnet
@still bay I would say the 10900
BUT, they’re both massive overkill
i just want a cpu that i wont have to upgrade basically ever
@cerulean stream Now buy better parts for the same budget
@still bay Spend the money on a great motherboard then
Hey @charred herald I'm back
@rugged yoke thanks!
@cursive magnet but the performance won't be :D
10600k can beat 3600xt by a good bit
I was mainly giving him a ryzen option, because he seemed to favor that path
@charred herald anyways point is, Intel is still very good, current Ryzen just beats it by a bit, not enough to justify having to swap mobo
yeah z490 right
for platform
its x470 counterpart right?
in terms of higher end
it will be
i meant to say x570
intel has said that z490 will support 11th gen intel
@still bay That’s where I’d put the money vs processor. You could drop all the way to a 10600 for gaming
im good
so for AIO im deciding between the 360mm ekwb one or the corsair elite capellix
ekwb outperforms the corsair rihght?
@charred herald about parts to buy, do you know what exact monitors you already have, and do you have a preference between the 1-to-3 splitters or the 1-to-2 splitters?
@still bay https://pcpartpicker.com/product/2PFKHx/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-360-563-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-acfre00068a would be best choice, but the EK over Corsair for price alone.
eh, out of stock rn
buying an AIO in general is accounting for looks smh
why
Lol sure
@cerulean stream If you only want to run minesweeper
But graphics performance will be ass
You'll literally only have the ability to display your desktop in high res
@cerulean stream what's the purpose
No gaming?
no
Hm
Then I'd get 10600k
No video editing either right
we have a VGA monitor
brb
@waxen obsidian lol I recognize that canada computers
what're your build specs gonna be?
what is the 10600k?
@cerulean stream Look at this list, windows 10 key would be 5 bucks on ebay.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hDDvRT
well I was thinking 10600k as the CPU
but 10400 would work
10400 is just a lower bin, still 6 core 12 threads, double the threads as 9700k
give me a few minutes... reading on this
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vCfLy4 what do yall think
prob get 3600mhz ram instead
i dont exactly want a o11 but the only other case i've found that i like (4000d) doesnt seem to support 360mm rad
ik
you can front mount 360mm rad in a lot of cases
i dont exactly want it
and top is only 240/280
Still pretty big tho
You can front mount 360mm @still bay
Yes those two are good
uh 4000d airflow doesn't come with rgb
ik
thats why i have ll120's in there
oh i could even top mount the rad if i wanted to on a p500a (not sure why i would)
heat rises so it makes no sense
both are for the 3pin 5v header afaik so
Kinda does tho, no?
wut
Also remember how air flows
Is real late where I am
fresh air from the front of the case is gonna reach half of the radiator
the airflow of my case would be left then up/right
Brain function limited
remember that air doesn't sit around
should i go white or black theme
Black
Black
p500a if you want to top mount rad
i dont really
which I suggest :P
I was blown away with how cool the TD500 mesh was in person. The pics don’t do it justice
i just assumed front mount was best
I really like td500 mesh too
@still bay by a very small margin
and it's annoying
who wants to see tubing go across the board
when you could have tubing just go up
soooo
and with top mount you don't even need to worry about having pump and the tubing below the end of the rad
does intel favor 2x16 or 4x8
Go ryzen and skip the aio altogether
me?
Intel favors 2933 🤮
neither Intel or AMD do really
k
if i just remove the gpu from the pcpp then all the sudden im in my budget!
perfect
lmao what
4 dimms vs 2 is roughly 10%
budget is 2k+like 600
That’s what I said!!!!!
lemme just edit this
i really dont have a budget
i just saw 3000 and it was a lot
im just kinda putting stuff i want in a list then ill buy it
is the vision g a good motherboard?
kept aio
kept rgb ram
hell
you don't need a commander pro with that
and save even more money
Anyone have a $1300 list? My friend is looking into building a computer and has a budget of $1300
right i forget the ekwb come with a 3 to 1 y splitter
I don't know I think as soon as possible
don't remember
also 700 for a 3080 is modest...
@little osprey Can they wait
I'm assuming so lol
True
eah but im not gonna get a 3080 ever for 700 dollars
Is there any definitive answer for what of the two is better in gaming? I see so many different answers and i am not a smart enough man to think by myself, i just want to know which of the two should i buy for my next rig, i dont really care if the 4x8 would cost a bit more.
There's this video...
alright FINE ill go 850 watts
but atleast let me get a seasonic psu then
only bc i love the name seasonic
nvm they expensive asf
@little osprey
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bjyzvf
corsair it is
Enermax revolution DF
out of stock for now
What!?
Mid dec on amazon
@cursive magnet what am I supposed to see in that forum thread?
The test videos
???????
4000D Airflow or lancool 215
i have a 1070ti rn
Dang. Long story short. There’s a few on YouTube that you can watch. Some had crazy “cherry picked” results. The couple that were reasonable had 10% ish improvement.
:P
i have no clue if ill be able to get a 3080 by xmas
????
@still bay you can get one whenever you want, lol
its not my money?
@cursive magnet take a listen at this part

i mean some of it is
no
i got it figured it out dw i just need help with any potential compability issues and stuff
also u want to know the most bs compability issue ever
if u use stock corsair cables in a 220t airflow and want to put a HDD in u literally HAVE to take out the hard drive cage or else u literally wont be able to fit the cables/psu in
with that being said idrk what to do for my cousins build my current idea is to have him get cablemod cables (modflex)? any other ideas bc thats like 100 dollars
im built different so 5600x and a 3080 🥶
@hasty gyro depends on pricing
when 3600 is priced decently
3600+3080 will perform better
3600 i can get for 270 and the 3080 i can get for 999, both cad
5600x i can get for about 400 and 3070 for about 700-800 cad
work is killing me... sorry for the delay
It's alright
its about the same price
im just wondering which will let me push to 144fps at 1440p the best
@hasty gyro I would believe 3600+3080 would give you better, but less consistent performance,
while 5600x+3070 gives you lower avg but higher lows
that's what I believe
yeah id assume so lol
idk im hopefully building in mid to late march so ill see what the prices are like then
fair
4000D airflow or lancool 215
@stoic island is the 5500xt really that bad compared to the 5600xt?
Cause im not trying to spend 300 on a gpu just yet
🗿
Yo Mr1111
Should I consider getting a fire hydrant for my newly built pc? Just in case I try running Doom again?
@hoary lichen yes
Rlly?
Why else is it a different product at a different price
It's just a 1650s
prob max graphics
tr
Oh
@stoic island If there’s no improvement how do the explain frame rate increases?
Then what is a 1660
In between or somethin
ambient temp
so on a CPU bound game it's gonna go differently than a GPU bound game
do u think my cousin would consider that a "fast gaming PC"?
i kinda messed up on the ram
i linked her a 3600mhz CL18 kit...
3700x and 5700xt is 'fast'
What about
ssd is a p1 500gb iirc
3100 and 5600xt?
you know it's a very different question for
"fast" for someone who hasn't had experiences with a gaming PC
difference between cl18 and cl16 is very low tho right?
to my knowledge all he has played is fortnite on his xbox one
and "faster" for someone like me that stares at specs all day
not even the new ones
meh, low enough ig
Fortnite
i did link a nice asus 1080p 165hz monitor tho (like amonth ago)

Fps is a horrible tool for comparisons in general
Alr at least make sure he knows how to manage his pc
:p
Its in the name
i have a feint idea but i dont know how it affects real world use
what is the difference?
it looks like that combo can run 120fps 1440p max graphics in most modern games
gotta remember to account for the 50 virus's hes gonna install
im thinking more fortnite prn but i like ur thinking
Cheat engine :p
so but what does first word read affect
ive downloaded cheat engine like 20 times on this pc
yeah
Sooo
its very fast memory
let me actually check if i even did link him a cl18 kit bc i might not have
i mightve caught it
difference depends
So this convo was for nothing?
Wait
How much are you paying for that ram
way overprice]
Does anyone know how to get an older version of windows cause clearly the newest update is doodoo and wont let me get in
i got 2 options
@charred herald Anyways, got any more questions or anything like that?
Can you send the build? @still bay
- cablemod cables (100 dollars)
- try to see if i she can refund the case and get a like 4000d instead??
or p500a
@still bay what's the current case?
ok let me put this guy on auto pilot so i can chat some more
@charred herald take your time, just @ me any time you are free
i also need to remember to get a mobo that has 4 fan headers
mr111 should I get the 4000d airflow or lancool 215?
p500a 😎
I haven't looked into lancool 215 yet
@stoic island you should start a gig on fiverr or something be like “will pick out parts depending on your budget and where to get them for 10-20 dollars” lmao
All I know is 4000d is good
@hoary lichen Don't have enough experience to feel comfortable with that yet :P
study for at least another year
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZxktCz thoughts?
plus cable mod cables or tell her to refund the case and get a p500a instead
really not looking forward to that conversation
Change the ram
too late
Its too over priced
too late
Bruh
Do you think 4000D airflow + 2 more 120 intakes can compete with a td500 mesh?

"hey so ik i told u this was all gonna be compatible and work but funny story the included cables literally are so tuff and stiff they wont bend properly so u need to spend 100 dollars on new cables"
the issue is that the cables cant bend enough
ive literally built almost this exact thing for another friend
it doesnt work i had to remove the harddrive cage and his hdd is just flying free
Thats why i stick to nvme ssd’s
Blow dryer or heat gun to warm the cables up a bit before putting them in
🧀
i love the fact that i see people getting upset about 3090's being out of stock while theres a store like 20 minutes from me with an evga ftw3
🗿
A lot of ppl don't have computer shops near them :/
yeah ik
canada computers is goated
@hasty gyro Yeah, but is it EBAY priced
I just need a 3070 lol
Scalp that sumbitch
Nope :///
canada?
difference between cablemod pro and classic kit?
One gets you more girls
Also yes
theres four brands for the 3090 available
wut
New Brunswick :/
something is very wrong here XD
i was gonna say canada computers is great for canada but
nb is unfortunately isolated
Where are you at James??
@mortal void that pricing is THICC >:D
do you think scalping is a viable option for making money lmfao
yes
Linus Tech tips kicks down your door
lmfao
if i picked up a 3090, the evga ftw3, for 2300 cad, and sold it for 3000, would that be worth
like would someone actually buy it
Probably
It's a 3090 people aren't concerned with money if they're buying that
yea
lmao yeah
Just become a husk lol
theyre literally already going out of stock
nearest is now like 6 hours away lol
in quebec
theres a 3090 20 minutes from me...
this one
So should I get a 4000D airflow and 2 120 intakes or should I get a td500 mesh? Mr 111
I am back
If i were to wait for the ryzen to restock (since it is the best in its category right now if i understood well) is it possible to build a pc right now with the parts that are available that would be also ready for the ryzen when it is available again?
@tawdry lance out of the two, td500 mesh
@charred herald it would be either impossible or a waste of money, because Intel is actually fairly comparible to current gen Ryzen, just slightly behind, but going Intel platform means you can't get a Ryzen chip. Going last gen Ryzen means giving up close to 20% of the performance, and buying a new chip is, well, making the purchase of the previous gen chip a slight waste of money.
elite ax
Also a cutie
is the gaming edge bad?
aorus boards do be nice tho
gaming edge is 20 dollars cheaper than the ax is it still worth
Only thing I will say tho
If you dont like orange
Get you some tape. thank me later
Aesthetics is not really the biggest worry for mobo
I mean I like it for the good VRMs :p
Aorus board has more usb
wut
But really, how much usb does one need??
I like NZXT cases. Their aesthetic is nice and my temps r cool
You'd be surprised
thanks for the clarification. I don't understand the last part of the last sentence regarding purchasing the last gen
If you buy last gen then upgrade, the money spent on the old processor would be considered a waste.
@charred herald That’s the same reason I made the decision to buy my 3070
The price of a 5700xt, added to the list of a 3070 was more than what I found one on eBay for.
...and didn’t have to wait
@charred herald To have a working machine, it must have a CPU and a compatible Motherboard.
So if you wanted a working machine, but wanted it to be usable before you could get a next-gen CPU, you must get a placeholder CPU, and the easiest way to do that is buying a last gen CPU (Like a 3600, instead of the current gen 5600x) until you can get a current gen CPU
Anyone know of some aios with an lcd screen?
meh
asus sells one too
