Yeah they overpriced rn
Its the only one in stock rn
For those prices you could just spend 70$ more and buy 5700 xt
Yeah I was going with the 5700xt but it sold out as soon as I was going to buy it
Actually nvm
I’m kinda waiting for it rn
Yeah
Yeah I saw lol
There was a 1660 super for like 600 I think they going crazy over prices
Yeah do you think the evga w1 600w 80 plus is a good power supply or should i go back to best buy and return it for a Corsair cx650m ?
you’ll find the rtx 3070 for $550 so maybe getting a 3060 ti would be a better option https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cDQ7vf
PSU is A tier
i was seeing 3060 ti only being like 10% better than 5700 xt
Yeah I bought the evga w1 600w 80 plus today
ok where the rx 5700 xt at $399 then
Just buy used lol
The prices are crazy right now with cpus and they’re always out of stock
when 3060 ti come out its gonna be pretty low
True
If mining isn't profitable in couple years im gonna be looking to offload 16 GPUs
yeah true, though i prefer nvidia all day because of the features you miss out on with getting an amd card
no ray tracing, no dlss, no nvenc
DLSS would be in the works
Ray tracing was expected
Nvidia is always gonna be on top
They a complete generation ahead ray tracing wise
always will be
they have more money too
Soo, I'm a noob trying to use the PC builder with a Ryzen TR 3990x but I can't find that option for the builder
any help?
The gpu is over priced on new egg
ok now a 7 3700x...
Its the same price now
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vMqddm @bleak brook
what are you gonna be using the pc for
The ryzen 5 3600 and ryzen 7 3700x are the same price on Newegg rn
Thanks
can get a 10400 instead
I’m trying to stream game and edit maybe
does it help me pick compatible parts?
Hows the ryzen 9 3900x
I wouldn't buy now
just buy a 5800x
Doesn't have much stock issues
just monitor it on amazon alot
Or follow Stockdrop
I bought a usb and downloaded windows on it for my future build I think I’ll wait I little though to see if prices cool down but if I see a good deal I’ll just buy it
Ok if I want that TR I picked up and a GPU setup with as many CUDA cores as possible, what to go for?
Wish 3080 fe would stock back up
You’re going to be stalking the 3080 fe they sell quick
Wew, I have no idea how to pick from these when my hardware skill is 0.
if anyone can help, I'd appreciate it 🖐🏼
If not instantly
Ok, I'll look through the site while you get free
Even microcenter don’t have anything in stock besides old gpus
which is better?
BB = ?
evga card has ugly red clown lips
Best Buy
price/performance
higher price for the same performance?
you’re paying less per fps than if you would with other cards
nope, there are better AIBs that will give you better performance because they run cooler
though, FE should be the lowest priced of the 3080 GPUs
Ok, what do you suggest for max gpu performance? [prices aside again]
foof I don’t know
lemme check on a chart
MSI X Trio or EVGA FTW3
not much of a performance boost though
like 10+ fps
3090 is better than 3080 but 3090 is ass value
the one I posted up is 90
what?
Here
ohhhhhhh I’m sorry
Also, The Witcher 3 at 300 FPS
that's gotta be fun.
no worries
Ok, what should I look for in a case?
[not an RGB person, but I like overall cool looks]
lemme check
I gtg rn
Thank you.
I’m sorry about leaving you here but I gotta do something
but if you can help me pick a MB before you go, I appreciate it
No worries, thanks
The build looks fine but you will need a hefty psu to hold it all up
ok, any quick ideas before you go?
Is this a solid build?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7G8Gj2
Seems so, but like, 20 series doesn't seem worth it right now
30 series is here, and stocks will hopefully be around more in 2021
Someone wanna rate my dream build and setup?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tbvVDc
Why not a ryzen 5000 series 🤔
I just got my new pc parts, i have a strix b550-f gaming with 5600x. Do i need to update the bios or it is already updated
Lol, why is mostly everything gigabyte?
Well on terms of hardware
Depends.
But if your computer works, thats a good sign atleast.
@little osprey i didnt put the parts together yet i just need to know if it is updated
Ok
@inner barn again, no way to test it yet because the chips aren't out yet, so it's only foreshadowing z490 doing pcie 4.0 :p
No, I would not trust it
@jagged ember yea I'm pretty sure I've seen a good amount of articles from then before
Oh lol I've never heard of them before
So I assumed with a name like that it would be shady, but guess I was wrong?
Im hyped to get my 3060ti
Im so build different i think ill be able to order it b4 it goes out of stocm
Let's hope so

Videocardz is very credible
The leaks are generally true, rumors are clearly marked as rumors
I gain more knowledge
I relied on em since a few months earlier tbh
They're unheard of by many, so they seem shady 
10600K or 2600X for a RTX 2060?
10600k easily
Aight
2nd gen ryzen sucks compared to Intel :P
Lol
yess
hey guys it's been a number of years since I've built a pc, I am having some post problems with the MSi Z390 gaming edge. Is this the right place to get some ideas?
thx
anybody can help me with choosing the right cooler
@stoic island u cleared up some confusion but i still need to pick a cooler O-O
my PC is weak
what aspect of it? CPU? GPU? RAM? anything else?
graphically, computationally, RAM-wise...
does the nh-d15s need a mounting adapter for a gigabyte x570 gaming x rev 1.1?
what does warning say
Which would have more stable performance:
Ryzen 5 3600 and a 3080, or a 5600x and a 3070
For 1440p 144hz
a bios update
if its something about clearance with tall heat spreaders then thats there all the time
at ultra settings, go for the one with the 3080
for FPS go with the Zen3 CPU
will the nh-d15s with a second 140 mm fan work with vengeance ram and vengeance rgm pro ram?
Ohhhhhhhhh okay I never thought of it that way
ok
Thank you
what board
Gigabyte makes large boards, right?
uh
idk
it's atx
not eATX
also which one is height
the first, second, or third number
because i find it hard to believe that vengeance non rgb is taller than vengeance rgb pro
Wait i just noticed i bought a matx mobo and i have an atx case is this bad
Phew ok
it should have mounting for matx
Thank god ty
P400a
i think they are different
Ah thank god
u want the digital one i belive
the regular one doesnt have a mesh front panel
nah i lied
it doesnt matter digital just ocmes with 3 d-rgb fans
nothing really just names
ok
sick
Awesome
unrelated but I'm in my latin II class rn
how much is the 3060ti
Nice
u know ppl already have the 3060 ti
Msrp is 400
like $449
400 retail
damn only 400
oh 400, even better
better than 2080 super
salvete omnes
slightly less than a 3070/2080ti
Just about as good as 3070
and its 400 dollars
"salvete omnes" translated to "hello all" or "hello everyone"
wow
a nice little latin fact for ya
1440p it gets 100+ fps
I havent seen specs, how much vram?
8

iie
I heard dec 2nd is when its rumored to come out but will there be a time of day announcement when itll come out
scalper time
Whats scalper time
scalpers
then resell at a higher price
yes.
Sooooo, Is a 650 W Gold 80+ PSU enough for a 3600 xt and a 2070 super
yeha probably but hwy are u doing such old hardware?
also u wont have really any space for upgrades
Simply pathetic
still new broh
still solid hardware
Lol sorry I can't get my hands on a 3080 and 5900 x I'll just go kms
not for the price
maybe not but id like to see you try and get a 5600x and a 3070 right now
Bro I found both of them together for 800$ I thought it was a good deal haha
no need to get aggressive im simply saying its old hardware and expensive for the price compared to what u can get today
if hes fine with that go for it
My mobo and ram come tomorrow
what you can get
😍
B500m pro4 and g.skill ripjaws ddr4 3600
what cpu you pairing?
3700x
just build one for my dad with a 3600x and a 1660s to replace his old e machine
it doesnt even have an ssd to boot off of
5400rpm hard drive for everything
cant even play HL1 on the damned thing
3600x and a 1660s cant play hl1?
the emachine
3600x and 1660s play HL1 at 5000 fps
give or take
and un-exaggerate
@little osprey for what chip
Is jayztwocentz a credible info guy on yt
NVIDIA just launched its brand new RTX 3060Ti GPU... but does it even matter?

yep
hearing news about these is like hearing news about unicorns
like unicorns, these gpus simply dont exist

vibe check
vibed
the vibe has been checked

vibe is good but this language is hard as hell to learn
owo
Japanese class?
say a japanese to me rn
That sounds divine
hajimimashite
Immaculate if u will

only japanese i know is kenjataimu
Play despacito
what vm are you running?
ewwww manjaro
qemu is the right way to go though
and from what I can tell Manjaro is better for VMs as I use them anyways
are you using it for general use or just vms lol
gaming VMs so I can play in windows while Windows/proctoring software from my school/etc etc doesnt know what Im doing
manjaro is alright but i wouldnt rly recommend it
and yeah it should work fine for gaming vms
calm down dude, I only started this class at the beginning of the semester
lmao
ごめんごめん
its okie
np
Guys I know this might be a lot but my friend hes extremely new to pc building and looking for one right now and he's got a good budget around 1.3-.1.4k and I need help making him a good build to be quite frank
Yes not heavy overclock but a decent bit
ethernet or wifi?
Ethernet i believe
ok
holy sh*t the R5 3600 is $357 on PcPartPicker right now
WHY IS THE 3600X $427 RIGHT NOW
WHAT THE HELL
@hollow grail
need those fat overclocks
no
no not ethernet
Yeah I think there are still insane deals from Monday for some reason
Oh hey you made it
Its wireless wifi
normally the R5 3600 is $199
its $357 rn
Reason: Bad word usage
ooohhh
Oh my b
@wanton cliff yeah nowadays i try to get ppl on intel cause ryzen price is nuts rn
Does anyone here know if stuff made on their pc builder come prebuilt?
the newegg pc builder
no
no
it's just like https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ , it's to help you choose parts to build yourself.
do you want it prebuilt?
Kinda because I dont rly trust myself or know how to do this stuff
I'm not sure but its usually pretty easy to build just gotta know what part goes where and how to organize wires
i like these guys for prebuilts
so do you choose the parts and then they make it?
yep!
Do you know their average shipping time?
like how long?
Ok I gtg i have school
depends, you can expedite it
If you want specific parts tou could search up on Facebook marketplace for custom pc builders that will just build the pc for you
ew
Or other websites similar
why tf would you do that
ehh I dont trust facebook
Offer up
Yeahh...
I'd rather a company with multiple people who know what they're doing rather then some random person on facebook
i tell people to go to xotic cause their configs make sense
ohh let me copy that link before I forget
here
thanks
Or if you know someone who does it just pay them like 50-75 dollars to do it
Like a friend who built his own
I dont know many people who do that
Or something
@rich helm prebuilts are literally better value rn hush
many experienced people
I'm back and I know a few locals that could help @true lark
if you can beat xotic ill be pretty surprised
What are their prices like?
or you could go to redux, $75 build fee, no upcharge on parts
Yeah I don’t trust a company that puts a 1660 in a 1500 dollar pc
1660s belongs in an $800 build
Traa is back
a new role called 'build master' or somthing
a build maker/helper?
the road to mod is a long one
I know
oh hey, a new color
Im probs closer to a techie like @stoic island than a mod
this chat just gets more colorful as it goes on
I'm closer to you than I am a mod
exactly
:(
What budget were you thinking for a pc @true lark
I'll get there one day
1300 to 1400
are you advocating for a prebuilt
they dont want to build it
100%
or at least they don't trust themselves to build it
xotic?
ye
personally i love them
Here is what i would reccomend
My experiences with xotic is that its confusing
You can’t get much better without going over your budget
sure you can
Next graphics card up is a 3070 which puts you at 1500
easily
For this website I’m saying
do they not have a 5700XT?
You could upgrade storage or ram but wouldn’t make too much of a difference
No they don’t
bruh moment
graphics card is one of the easier parts, just buy one and put it in yourself
The new and cards are out of stock
whats confusing abt xotic?
You would have to buy it with a card that could be resold
ebay
finding where to customize
And idk if they use they’re own weird card
click the pc
just get it without a card, and buy a 5700XT or something like that
I don’t think you can get it without it can you?
its literally one of the easiest ui for prebuilt system makers
find one you like
Can't believe y'all are actually advocating for prebuilts when they dont even have stock of common GPUs
redux looks like they have 3070
you're asking a little too much from someone with a smooth potato brain
customize and add to cart
Oh sh*t nevermind then
how is their customer service?
what they have rn
@hollow grail yeah im dumb dumb smooth potato brain
we will be their customer service so :P
Alright so, my friend tthat lives about 500 miles away from me just built his pc and it isn't posting. Everything spins, lights turn on but no signal to monitor. He's reseated cpu, gpu, and ram multiple times and inspected for damage. Its a 9900k on a prime z390. I was hoping I could get some more ideas on how to figure out whats wrong
i love xotic i used them for laptops all the time
yes
can vouch for them 100%
Doesn't post when plugged into the gpu or the motherboard. We've confirmed that its not the monitor btw
okay well, Im the last person you'd want to go to for help
reset cmos
do what ever he said maybe idk ^
@buoyant flame always reset cmos, preemptively, doesn't matter what is wrong, board might've shipped with some accidental bios edits
:D
He's doing that rn
alright good
lets hope that works
im awaiting his reply
any debug LEDs?
always reset cmos lol
sadly no
unfortunate
checked power cables I assume
idk what we're talking about Im just here for the fun
yep
is he experienced with building or just "dude i can build it for you dont worry"
mwe gold 750w
I am building a pc what is the best case my friends want me to get the loan li 011 dynamic but that thing suck
Coolermaster TD500 mesh
Cooler Master h500
Phanteks P400a/P500a
what ever they say
Yeah
does it?
Oh it does
Thought it didn't come with a stock exhaust fan
@true lark google time :D
500*
googles what the heck is a computer case
lol
Nvidia RTX 3060ti is $399
Performance is close to a AMD 6800.
December 2nd is the official release date.
904
yea
Guys I am building with a i9 10900k and 3080 what case would fit me hat beast
Good right
close as in better or close as in worse?
@forest marlin any good case, again, TD500 mesh/P400a/P500a/Lancool ii mesh
Remember
3060ti is a 400$ part
Y s
6800 is like 580$
It is good right
so uh
yea
it doesn't have a competitor at the price point
beats 2080 super on average
how are you supposed to fit a GPU into a p400a without stripping the screws?
wdym
feels like those things are welded on
dunno, don't use a p400a
by becoming a techie
Hey guys,
Let’s say if all the leaks were true
What would be better
Ryzen 7 5800x with 3080 ti
Or ryzen 9 5900x with 3080
Primarily used for gaming but a bit of editing too
boom roasted
That’s y I said if the rumours are true
Nvidia apparently said one would be available in january
3080 20gb got yeeted into the dust
@urban light lmao there's none to go off of
are we supposed to estimate performance off of a part name..?
lmao
like
I get it if there's like leaked passmark scores
but we have nothing really to go off of
@wanton cliff what happened to the build you were making?
noooooooo
good combo? R9 290x Ryzen 5 2600
I accidentally deleted it and then said "nah F*ck this sh^t"
i told you xotic will take care of you smh
woah
ive got time, I'll rebuild it right now
?
thx
list is priv
its private

ye
reason I did 3700x is because it was cheaper than a 3600 
yeah if you can get a 3070 thats a good list
lol idfk
why would it be 75% more expensive than MSRP after sale?
oh
amd is pulling a intel
I thought they were on sale
not on -sale
emphasis on demand
i bet intel is loving it tho
probably
When will the 3000 series restock???
oh crap I forgot to add case fans to that build
never lol
@stoic island That took longer than i wanted it to cuz he had trouble getting the gpu out but the cmos is reset and still no post
if they're rasing the price by 75% then the demand is going to slowly drop, (probably idk im not an economist)
yeah but everyone wants a PC right now because of the Coronavirus but at the same time the Coronavirus is the same reason noone can get a PC
or parts
or anything
cant wait for someone new wanting us to build something on PcPartPicker for them
its my addiction
you could help me find a good case for my build
budget, Mobo, and Cooler?
h100i is not really worth ngl
I dont see a GPU?
unless rgb is what you wanna have
that two 980 pro is overkill
yeah but at 3k, what do you want?
i know
idk
980s are fast as hell tho
yup
it's slower than like sn850 and sabrent rocket
i meant 870
but erm, they're only speedy in specific tasks
that 7 gigs per sec
bytes?
gigabyte ofc
ok
p400a digital is good too, right?
do you guys think there is a better cpu cooler
yes
well, my recommendation would make you lose rgb on the cooler
it's arctic liquid freezer II
im in
specifically 240mm one
that thing is hella expensive!
it's why i recommended the liquid freezer II 240 kek
it actually beats h100i, afaik
as far as i know
yeah im pretty sure liquid freezer II beats H100i
is this a good build ? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Gn4CDc
and do i need any bios updates?
i do? doesnt b550 support ryzen 5000 out of the box?
and if your mobo doesnt have flash bios you may need a second cpu to install the latest bios for 5000 series chips
they should but it is not main stream yet
i think
ok
I9 10900k with 3080 32 gigs of 3600 ram and a 970 evo with the Lian li o11 dynamic
Beacuse I don’t want to bios flash
The ram is 16 cl
why intel
how's seasonic to corsair for psus?
depends on model
model>brand but usually Corsair holds awful value
corsair suck?
Seasonic makes a lot of the PSUs other companies relabel
Seasonic is the superior product 9/10 times IMO
rosewill capstone ftw
premium price tho
Not by much
Rather spend an extra $30 on my PSU and avoid frying my other parts or having to unplug everything and redo cause I wanted to save the amount of money I spend on lunch
But thats just me
yeah fr
over a thousand buckoos of stuff fried when you could’ve spent more to be safe
Yep
My buddy has a 2070 super, I7 9700k build and got an unrated PSU
Don't even recall the name of the PSU but i'm just waiting for the day he calls me and tells me something broke so I can say "told you so"

Lol fr
When he goes to buy new stuff for his fried parts ill be like "yeah man I'm gonna need a 3090 for my advice"
I barely know things about PCs and I would like to get one for christmas but i dont know where to get the help what components that works with eachother and so on whats whort the price and whats good
Would be nice if anyone could help in someway like I want to use the PC mainly for gaming but a little bit of work too. the budget im looking at is around 1200$ or 1000€
you wanna build or buy a pre-built
I want to build one
@magic rivet what country?
Umm.. Sweden/Finland I live in both countries
@wanton cliff try to get region specific if you can
He says he's gonna just take his pc to a repair shop by him because he doesn't really have a way to test anything else out btw
I'm pretty sure its his ram tho
Fun
yep
Scandinavia seems so fun :(
Thermal paste reccomends?
comes with coolers
Yeah different brands really dont do much
Might see like a 1 or 2 degree difference
Okay thank you man
wdym it seems fun? its so boring here
@magic rivet if you wait you could get better
hey
it is not
this is an awesome discord
you just havent been here for long enough
Yea sure np ill wait. Im not buying anything right away
ok cool just come back when you are and hopefully next gen parts will be more available
i have a question
whats ur question, soldier
even still I wouldn't buy that list when it was relevant
yes
what do u think. Should I hurry just to get a PC rn bcs I want one or should I wait for the next gen to come out? and if so how long do I need to wait?
the d15s can have a 120 mm fan, yeah?
Definetly wait. Prices are all over the place right now
I have a p300, works just fine
you can get a cheaper psu
lol its still gold
and a 2070s is being price gouged same as everything else
@magic rivet Fun as in a nice place to be
The lack of 'excitement' is what seems nice
don't have all the controversy
so
Haha
i guess that my ram won't work with the d15s if i add a second fan
inless i put it on the other side but i doubt that'll work
What cpu do you need a d15 on
5800x
Honestly
why wouldnt it work
You probs dont need a d15
I said a Scythe or Hyper 212 would be fine but nooooooo
vengeance lpx is 50.1
ye had to argue
i was the one asking
though i DID say i didn't want to use the 212
cuz the mounting is terrible
not really
idk about EVO
212 black rgb sucks
who cares about the rgb?
Rgb just makes your computer looking like a party rave
unicorn vomit
AMD is better than Intel right?
Right now, yes.
I mean uh...if you going for 5000x chips
Though K series chips from intel is nice but they come in a premium price.
feel like that'll change when Intel comes out with something smaller than 14nm
Hey I’m building my pc and need some help what does Intel A and Intel B mean on the cooler manual instructions for installation?
They could just market their new 14nm as 7nm.
the issue with mounting the 212 is that i have to angle my screwdriver, and that makes it SO much harder to get the screw into place
for a specific screw
is it a prebuilt
no
what website is that
you'll probably want a hard drive
isnt ssd better?
oh so I can have ssd and hdd in my PC?
yes.
okay well then i learned smth new
I have 2 ssds and 1 hdd in my computer
for a total of 3.256 terabytes of raw storage
nice
@magic rivet swap that a2000 with something better
true
Oh wait
A2000 m2
hold up
it's nvme i think
@dense shale ketchup and mustard cables?
What
just means the company tries to save money
Yes
@dense shale do you care about cable manegment?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yL6Rz7 how many w psu will i need for this build if im also planning to get an aio in the future?
650+
also way overpriced ram for the speed
ik, im gona change it
is g skill ram good?
i put white ram non rgb but if youre willing to pay the extra for rgb then go for trident z
also a better ssd
ok thanks
👍
hi there! anyone can help me pick a PCIe expansion card for a Mac Pro?
I need to add USB 3 and USB-C ports and I don't want to screw it up
@dreamy canopy Point of the NH-D15s, and the reason I recommended it, was because of the single fan config not blocking ram lel. I was trying to get you to get the NH-U12a but that went out of stock.
Single fan performs surprisingly well, despite 'half the fans'
Performances comes close from the NH-D15s to NH-D15
