lmfao

#

whatever

#

i have to go to sleep now

vagrant olive
#

ok heres the manual

fossil halo
#

its

#

not a mobo thing i think

#

the l8ight is on the ssd

vagrant olive
#

oh?

#

oh

#

what ssd

balmy patio
#

oh bruh you should’ve said that

neat reef
#

"Works great just has an annoying blinking green led when it it used. I just put a piece of electrical tape over to block the led" review on amazon

#

doesnt seem like a problem

vagrant olive
#

true

fossil halo
#

lmfao

#

ok

#

lol

#

i mean its not bothering me too much

little osprey
#

I have a question, I’m installing my aio liquid cooler, do I push down to screw it in or do I just screw it in normally? Sorry this is my first time building I don’t know much

fossil halo
#

i think that for cpu cooler u want the paste to spread

little osprey
#

So I push it down while screwing it in right?

vagrant olive
#

just push down then screw it in

little osprey
#

Oh okay thanks

vagrant olive
#

assuming you've already got all the stands set up and everything

balmy patio
#

yeah

#

and do screw the screws starting with the top left, then bottom right, then top right, then bottom left

little osprey
#

Thanks

balmy patio
#

or any pattern you want as long as it goes in like a X

fossil halo
#

wait guys

#

how do i make sure that my rgb software is detecting my fans

#

bc at the moment its not

balmy patio
#

are your fans 4 pin or 3

fossil halo
#

idk i plugged in the controller

balmy patio
#

cuz with 3 pin fans it jus powers them, you can’t control them

#

with 4 pin connectors, you’re able to control the speed

balmy patio
fossil halo
#

where should i check

#

iirc

#

it came

#

with like a 3 pin connector and a 4 pin connector

#

like

#

each fan

balmy patio
#

ohhhh

fossil halo
#

and then i plugged them all into a controller

balmy patio
#

do you know which one is the rgb one and which one is the fan one

fossil halo
#

no sorry

#

i can send the link to the fans

#

they are the uphere 6 pack addressable rgb fans

balmy patio
#

hold up

vagrant olive
#

up where

#

im funny

balmy patio
#

did you jus plug them in without making sure you plug the rgb into the rgb inputs and the others into the fan inputs

#

because if you did then eek i don’t think thats how it goes

fossil halo
#

like

balmy patio
#

my guess is that the 3 pins are the argv connections and the 4 pin is the fan power connection

fossil halo
#

yea prob

#

the 3 pin was like

#

weird

#

it was like two pins right next to each other

#

then one space

#

then one pin

balmy patio
#

try to connect all 3 pins into the rgb and all the four pins into the fan headers

fossil halo
#

wdtym

#

like

balmy patio
#

like you can’t jus connnect them into random inputs

fossil halo
#

like

#

u see

#

on the controller

#

there is like

#

fan 1 fan 2 fan 3

#

all the way to 6

#

i only plugged in 5

#

and each fan port

#

has

#

a four pin a three pin

tired hamlet
jagged ember
#

that 580 isnt great

#

and we don't know the ram speed

jagged ember
fossil halo
#

and also the cooler master software is not detecting my wraith prism

jagged ember
#

for gaming alone it's great!

fossil halo
#

that came with the r7

tired hamlet
#

I can ask the RAM speed

fossil halo
#

like

jagged ember
#

yeah find out how fast it is

fossil halo
#

when it says to plug it into a usb header

velvet locust
#

How do I set up this prebuilt I have hdmi plugged in my monitor with my pc on (gpu fans not spinning) my monitor is black what do I do

jagged ember
#

and find out what nvme it is

fossil halo
#

i only had one usb header

jagged ember
#

aand find out what psu it is

fossil halo
#

and i had to connect the front panel

#

usb port to it

tired hamlet
#

3000 is the RAM Speed @jagged ember

jagged ember
#

fair

fossil halo
#

thats slow af

jagged ember
#

what psu and nvme?

balmy patio
fossil halo
#

oh right

#

wait

#

but like

jagged ember
#

intel, yep

#

not amd

balmy patio
#

oops i accidentally replied lmao

fossil halo
#

dyk why its going on

#

lmfao

#

like

#

not detecting fans

tired hamlet
#

The PC is $750 @jagged ember will that be fair ?

balmy patio
#

what psu is it

jagged ember
#

i need to know what psu and nvme is in it

vagrant olive
#

yeah seems a bit shady ngl

jagged ember
#

for the price, it's kinda iffy unless we know exactly what's in it

vagrant olive
#

not shady just like, its better to know exactly what ur getting

balmy patio
vagrant olive
#

"fast ddr4 ram"

fossil halo
#

yes

tired hamlet
#

Thanks.

neat reef
#

also good to order from a business so you get warranty and professional support

tired hamlet
#

What about this one ?

jagged ember
#

fast could be 2000mhz

fossil halo
#

i have the software

#

but then it fives me this message

jagged ember
#

ehh

#

1000 for a 2060 is a little sad

#

but our current market is sad

tired hamlet
#

So probably not worth the price 😕

fossil halo
vagrant olive
#

large scalper prices

fossil halo
#

it gives me this message

jagged ember
#

could totally slap in a 3000 series for 1000 bucks if it was normal price

fossil halo
#

but i already plugged in the cpu cooler

balmy patio
#

tbh you could do a 3600 and 3060ti for 1k

#

in fact i think i have a build

velvet locust
#

How do I set up this prebuilt I have hdmi plugged in my monitor with my pc on (gpu fans not spinning) my monitor is black what do I do

jagged ember
#

if you can get your hands on one 3060 yeah

neat reef
#

yeh if you dont want to have it till february/march

velvet locust
#

Dm me

fossil halo
#

joesr san

#

pls help

balmy patio
fossil halo
#

k

little osprey
#

Should I put my fans speed at max or at a fan curve?

neat reef
#

@velvet locust try pushing the power connectors on the GPU (while the PC is off), they might not be in all the way, GPU fans should be spinning

jagged ember
#

depends

#

do you like having loud fans all the time?

little osprey
#

I really don’t mind if it’s loud or quiet

jagged ember
#

well, then you can set your fan speeds at max for greatest cooling

#

but ofc it's gonna be kinda loud

balmy patio
neat reef
#

@velvet locust also try pushing it into the PCIe slot, it might not be sat correctly

little osprey
#

@jagged ember what do I put my temperature interval at?

#

They give me 3 options, 1,2, and 3

jagged ember
#

if you're setting them all at max

#

there should be an option to do so, no?

little osprey
#

I’m in my bios right now

#

I can set my temperature interval when I max my fan speeds

jagged ember
#

my bios has a set all speed to full option

little osprey
#

Oh

jagged ember
#

but, if you can only set intervals make them all 100%

#

wrong symbol lol

little osprey
#

Okay

jagged ember
#

then it will always run at 100% no matter the temp

little osprey
#

Like this

jagged ember
#

that's a curve!

vagrant olive
#

curVE

little osprey
#

Yeah I didn’t set max speed yet

jagged ember
#

you want all the points at the top if you want it to run 100% all the time

#

else, if you care about acoustics, you can mess with your own fan cure configuration

little osprey
#

Oh okay

jagged ember
#

and that can be a very interesting process, but not everyone likes doing that

balmy patio
# fossil halo k

do you happen to have anything connected to the rgb headers on your motherboard?

#

i was looking into some forums and it seemed that having it plugged into the rgb header and the USB header caused problems because one was trying to "take over" the other and vice versa

jagged ember
#

usb and rgb headers are different things

#

so if that's the case it just wont work

vagrant olive
#

ok guys time to show my super budget crazy dad my $1200 build and hope that he says ok

#

this should go very smoothly and not result in him trying to get me to use a pentium cpu or smt

little osprey
#

good luck!

vagrant olive
#

this is pretty budget tho so like

#

wait the psu i picked is semi modular

#

e

little osprey
#

semi modular aint bad

vagrant olive
#

modular or die dular

balmy patio
#

relatable

#

you could get the corsair cxf if you don't care about efficiency and you do care about modularity

vagrant olive
#

i care more about efficiency tbh

#

modular is just preference

#

cooler master mwe gold came in clut ch doe

balmy patio
#

lmao

#

i was about to say to get that

sacred knot
#

anyone know how prime95 works?

balmy patio
#

and @vagrant olive do you care about rgb for the cpu cooler?

sacred knot
vagrant olive
#

@balmy patio ik i could get the 212 evo for $10 cheaper

#

honestly im debating whetehr i should even get a cpu cooler or if i should just go with the amd stock

balmy patio
#

you could get the gammax400, which is cheaper and is about par with the 212 evo, i think it also performs better according to some reviews

vagrant olive
#

oh

balmy patio
#

its 25 bucks but tbh the stock cooler will do

#

lemme see if i can make your list cheaper

vagrant olive
#

thanks

balmy patio
#

do you care if the mobo is atx?

vagrant olive
#

yeah i want it atx

balmy patio
#

ight got it

balmy patio
#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/gDpZF8 , so for that list i reduced cpu power and increased gpu power, i added an atx board like you wanted and for storage had a 500gb nvme + 2tb hdd, i kept the 275r and the psu, and instead of the rgb 212 evo added in a 5 pack of p12's from arctic

vagrant olive
#

oh s

#

275r airflow back in stock on amazon

#

i just pogged so hard i dislocated my jaw

#

this looks rly good thanks

balmy patio
fossil halo
#

i think

vagrant olive
#

kk

#

for the 512gb ssd, am i supposed to use that one as my boot drive

#

and then store files on the hdd?

fossil halo
#

ayo joesr

#

can u dm me what u need to say

#

so i can see it tomorrow

#

i gotta go to sleep

balmy patio
#

you can allocate however much you want to windows and use the rest for files and such

vagrant olive
#

ah kk

#

games will run marginally faster if put on the ssd right?

languid nimbus
#

Should load faster in some parts yeah

vagrant olive
#

kk

balmy patio
#

it does nothing in-game

#

it just loads faster

vagrant olive
#

ah

neat reef
#

some games get better FPS on a ssd like arma 3

radiant palm
#

Does anyone know if a Mai tomahawk b450 max is compatible with a Ryzen 5 2600x I’m having issues trying to figure out the motherboard cpu stuff and does anyone know what graphics card works for this that isn’t to high in price.

foggy hazel
#

any b450 board is compatible with the 2600x

#

any GPU will work, its just a question of what your budget is really

idle hawk
#

yo @balmy patio

#

wasssup

#

everyone asleep?

vagrant olive
#

rip

foggy hazel
#

if there isnt a problem, there is not normally any activity here.

idle hawk
#

lolol

#

thanks naed

#

was just saying to you lovely human beings

balmy patio
idle hawk
#

go sleep mf lol

balmy patio
#

been sleeping for like 11 hours on the weekends lately lmao

#

gn fool

toxic widget
#

Bro the nzxt h710i is so damn clean

idle hawk
#

lol

toxic widget
#

But I heard nzxt doesn’t have the best airflow

neat reef
#

get a phanteks p400a for airflow

#

the h710i looks good though

#

i think the air flow issues are more with the lower tier nzxt cases

vagrant olive
#

get a corsair 275r airflow

#

best case

#

cannot go wrong

toxic widget
neat reef
#

just get a high tier nzxt case and you will be fine

#

h710i seems fine

#

should still water cool it though

#

all the air has to bump into the metal casing and then go out the vents on the side, theres no vents anywhere on the surface

final stream
#

Ok, So I am currently trying to figure out where to start building a PC. I know a general idea as to what im starting with but i wanted to get different opinions on things like what to do with parts that have higher prices atm and what not like graphic cards

eager dawn
#

dont pay skalpers

#

😠

final stream
#

yes because me and my minimum wage salary is getting a 3080 or 3090 🤣

eager dawn
#

do u have a build in mind?

final stream
#

for now just a starter build that i can play games like Siege, MW, etc on

eager dawn
#

whats ur budget?

final stream
#

its not great lol it would be better if i could do part by part but i know with the chances of a DOA part that isnt a great idea

#

I would say probably 500-600

eager dawn
#

buy a 3080 and frame it xD

final stream
#

lmao rn i am using an optiplex with a radeon 970 1gb in it 🤣

eager dawn
#

honestly with that budget consider a ps5 i think that would give u more horsepower than building a pc at that price

#

in my humble opinion

final stream
#

idk ill figure something out

#

even if i have to take the risk and piece it together

eager dawn
#

wym?

little osprey
#

id like some help on picking good pc parts

eager dawn
#

what do u have in mind?

little osprey
#

well im currently using a gaming laptop and i am an avid 2d animator

#

i run into crashes consistently and having only photoshop and discord open already puts my cpu to 50%

eager dawn
#

are you running an intel base?

analog pulsar
#

YOU KNOW WHAT WHO EVER BROGHT UP BRAVE ON DISCORD THANKS BC NOW YOUTUBE IS SHOWING ME ADSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

little osprey
#

ive heard some things about intel that have promoted me to look towards amd

analog pulsar
eager dawn
#

Personally never been the biggest intel fan cuz it seems like the board members make all the decisions and don't have a clue about CPUs

#

but generally when ur talking about productivity amd always been the way to go

#

plus theyre more of a better bang-for-buck cpu

#

if u can find one id definitely recommend the ryzen 5600x

little osprey
#

hmmm ok

#

what about the 5900?

hollow grail
#

@analog pulsar brave is awful lmao

eager dawn
#

if all u need it for is photoshop and games 5600 is more than enough

analog pulsar
#

JUST SAYING SOMEONE WAS TALKING ABOUT IT IN THIS DISCORD NOW IM GETTING ADS

#

oops caps

little osprey
#

can we just talk about pc building please

eager dawn
#

i stream and game simultaniously and never ran into any issues with mine

hollow grail
#

almost like discord is hosted on a google cloud instance keeeek

little osprey
eager dawn
#

plus photoshop shouldnt put too much of a strain on ur cpu

analog pulsar
#

@hollow grail bruh i use the app

hollow grail
#

and?

analog pulsar
hollow grail
#

discord's backbone is hosted on google cloud

#

used to be hosted with someone i worked with in the past

#

but now its google

eager dawn
little osprey
#

thank you

#

jesus

hollow grail

Lol toodles

little osprey
#

ANYWAYS.

hollow grail
#

gl finding that monitor info though

shut fiber
#

Thank you!

hollow grail
#

❤️

little osprey
#

my laptop is running the i7-7700HQ as of now and i dont think that's enough for what im trying to do.

hollow grail
#

id help but ive always just played on flat panels

shut fiber
#

What ur trying to do

hollow grail
#

what are u trying to do lol

shut fiber
#

Me too flat panels r dope

little osprey
#

animate.

hollow grail
#

i wouldnt change from flat panels tbh

#

3d or 2d?

little osprey
#

2d but extensively

shut fiber
#

oh my oh my

#

Prob not enough idrk tho gl

hollow grail
#

depends how extensively

little osprey
#

yea im runnin 2.8ghz or up to 3.8 turbo boost

hollow grail
#

4c8t is okay for a lot of tasks tbh

#

depends how badly ur program is optimized

little osprey
#

im looking at the amd side of things

hollow grail
#

honestly i bodyslam my pcs with workloads and i used a 4c8t laptop for forever

#

you use laptop as main pc?

little osprey
#

its all i have

#

lenovo legion y520

hollow grail
#

i like legions lol

#

using one rn actuall

#

y

little osprey
#

ok cool it crashes frequently and i have lost over 28 hours of work

hollow grail
#

lmao

#

have u considered saving

little osprey
#

i do.

hollow grail
#

save more.

little osprey
#

at the end of every day i save

#

lost 16 hours of work one day

hollow grail
#

i save every time i make more than 5 changes lul

little osprey
#

not to mention a file corrupted and i could no longer open it

hollow grail
#

literally have AHK setup to ctrl+s every 5 mins

eager dawn
hollow grail
#

when im working

little osprey
#

ok i dont

#

and im tired of crashes.

shut fiber
#

i go pew pewe

#

and chivalry is dead

hollow grail
#

well just saying maybe dont be dumb about not saving tbh

little osprey
#

ok cool

hollow grail
#

and are you looking at a laptop or a desktop

little osprey
#

yeah thanks im trying to build a computer though

#

a desktop would be optimal at this point

hollow grail
#

budget?

little osprey
#

my laptop is great for a laptop

#

2k

shut fiber
#

oh ur fine w 2k

hollow grail
#

yeah just go nuts with amd at that point lol

shut fiber
#

u dont need a monitor?

little osprey
#

i do.

shut fiber
#

oh fr

hollow grail
#

i doubt the laptop is whats causing the crashes though lol

#

what program do you use

little osprey
#

adobe animate 2019

hollow grail
#

adobe
well that explains a decent amount lul

little osprey
#

i may transition to csp ex though

#

yes

hollow grail
#

honestly switch to csp and you might be fine on the laptop for a while longer

little osprey
#

but even photoshop lags extensively on simple 2 million pixel doodles

hollow grail
#

photoshop is spaghetti code

little osprey
#

sorry i mean 128 million

#

same thing

hollow grail
#

PS lagged on my threadripper build

eager dawn
#

@little osprey check this build

little osprey
#

hmm

#

damn even the 2060s are sold out?

#

shiiet

hollow grail
#

everything is

little osprey
#

i guess the market got hot

hollow grail
#

only the 1650 non ti is safe keeeek

little osprey
#

awesome

#

i got a GTX 1060 in my computer

#

lmao

eager dawn
#

sry check it again

#

that was an Australian link

little osprey
#

also my ram is 2400 mhz

#

is that bad

hollow grail
#

laptop? meh

#

desktop probably if ur not intel lul

#

intel doesnt care as much

little osprey
#

yeah im looking amd

#

5600x seems more than capable

#

as does the 3070

eager dawn
#

if u can spend the extra $ definitely would go with a 5600x

#

also would concider going for a 3060Ti rather than a 3070

little osprey
#

well the build you sent me is like 700 bucks lmao

#

whats wrong with the 3070?

eager dawn
#

its great, although reviews are showing the 3060Ti gives comparatively similar performance for a cheaper price

#

although dont take my word for it u might want to do ur own research into it

hollow grail
#

for the 2d stuff ur doing cpu matters most

eager dawn
little osprey
#

its fine man

#

this is the 3070

#

actually yea 3060 or 3070 i dont care

#

these are both over the top

eager dawn
#

assuming u can get ur hands on either

#

at this point buy whatever u can find

little osprey
#

yeah

little osprey
eager dawn
#

couple of notes,
u can probably get away with the stock cooler
get a 3600Hz CL18 would be more beneficial than a 3200hz cl16
the TUF b550 board if u wanna shave off a few dollars

#

the rest looks ballin

little osprey
#

and i cant find the tuf b550 on pcpartpicker

#

found the motherboard

#

it seems it only has 2 fan connectors

little osprey
#

im no expert but judging by the estimated wattage according to the website i think u have more than enough as it is but wait for someone with actual expertise on the matter to give their take

#

Guys can i ask what's the medium end build for streaming

#

32gb ram is all i know for certain

little osprey
#

oh is it?

#

i dont know these things lmao

eager dawn
#

ya generally 32gigs is overkill i can admit that

eager dawn
#

rule of thumb for me is go +200W

eager dawn
vivid wolf
#

Gigabyte g27q or viewsonic vx2758-2kp-mhd?

little osprey
#

Nem

#

*nvm

vivid wolf
#

Bitta underkill psu

little osprey
#

Ik

#

I forgot to change it XD

little osprey
#

@eager dawn Could u make a dual pc list

#

One pc for streaming

#

And another for gaming

eager dawn
#

errm that's getting a bit too technical for my skill level

little osprey
#

Could u try

#

Idk how to do it

vivid wolf
#

I could why u need it tho

little osprey
vivid wolf
#

Whats the point in getting 2 pcs when u can just make one with high end components

little osprey
vivid wolf
#

And youd need to be more specific on budget

eager dawn
#

i wouldnt advise two seperate pcs since u have nvenc coding that takes the load off the cpu

eager dawn
little osprey
#

I mean yeah

#

But he has a high end list

#

But he wants 2 dual PC list to see which he wants

vivid wolf
#

U dont need to have 2 pcs to stream fortnite lol

#

Waste of money

eager dawn
#

the only diff u'd change to make it a streaming pc is min 8cores and adding a capture card

vivid wolf
#

Tbh u could even get away with 6 cores

eager dawn
#

so whatever build u have add a ryzen 5900x/5950x

eager dawn
#

but im talking top end

#

like i said nvenc makes it easier on the cpu

#

if u have a denet enough gpu

#

Would also recommend >>>Elgato Game Capture 4K60 Pro

#

PCIe capture card that does 4k@60fps

little osprey
dense spear
#

tru

#

if u r making revenue, its a good choice to go with 2 pcs

little osprey
#

What are some good looking pc cases with decent airflow?

muted sluice
#

Almost double amount of views and I took this picture 2 minutes ago

drifting scaffold
#

What upgrade path would an i7-4790k, 16GB DDR3 1600MHz and GTX 1070 have? If at all.

muted sluice
#

@drifting scaffold depends on psu

#

And u can’t really upgrade anything besides a gpu I think

#

Yea u might want a new rig

drifting scaffold
#

Already have a new rig. This is my old PC I'm giving to a friend

#

4790k was the last processor for the slot, yeah?

muted sluice
#

Idk

drifting scaffold
#

PSU is 750

muted sluice
#

1070 ti?

drifting scaffold
#

I guess I gott grab a future proof motherboard then.

#

Just a 1070

muted sluice
#

Upgrade to a 2060 or 2070 second hand maybe

drifting scaffold
#

Hmm, yeah im super limited

#

I might secretly build him a rig this spring if I'm working

muted sluice
#

That’s a nice a thing to do

I just really enjoy building PCs

#

I'd take it up professionally if I didn't have a trade.

#

what mainboard would go well with a ryzen 5 5600x and a RTX 2070s?

drifting scaffold
#

I have an ROG Strix B550-F and a 5800X, if you don't care about gaudy RGB like me you could go with a cheaper non-RGB model.

#

You have any care for the aesthetic of the interior or is it just for functionality?

#

Honestly there's not much room to go wrong. Super limited choice in motherboards for the Zen 3 chips. All you have is the B550 and X570, just from different manufacturers with slightly different arrays of headers and expansion options depending on your needs.

stoic island
#

Not really limited boards, just most of them are good, there's limited filters

#

I have dell s2440l release date 2012, processor i5,3470,gpu rx570 4gb, 8gb ram. If i change my monitor would it effect on display better result? Please advise

stoic island
#

Well, what kind of better display are you looking for, smoothness with refresh rate, or color accuracy?

little osprey
#

Heyy

#

Anyone wanna give me ops on my list?

quasi snow
#

@muted sluice because you can get three entries per person

#

that's how gleam works

muted sluice
#

Ok

#

Oh

#

I’m not very big brain alright

little osprey
#

Can I play the mafia 2 With Core 2 Duo?

muted sluice
little osprey
#

just playing

muted sluice
#

No ur not

little osprey
#

ok

little osprey
#

Is the 2700X better than 3600X?

#

No

#

3600 beats 2700x

#

@little osprey why tho?

#

Faster

#

Sure you get more threads and cores but for gaming you'll get better performance from the newer chips

#

Same with the 5600x and 3700x. 3700x has more cores and threads but the 5600x is faster

#

Oh

#

@little osprey 3600X or 10600K?

#

Intel chip would be faster on that

#

Looks solid but you are overpaying for the 2060

#

Might as well get a 3060ti

#

crap EU stock...

#

Ah. Crap here too but probably a little better here than there

#

Could try a 5600xt

#

Yeah but ima stream too

#

I need NVENC

#

Preforms better than 2060 but you lose RT

#

Oh ok then yeah Nvidia

fossil halo
#

wait yo

#

my rgb ram showed up in my rgb software for like a day

#

and now it doesnt show up

#

should i like reseat it or smth

little osprey
#

@fossil halo ooh u got ur new pc?

balmy patio
#

ayo @fossil halo did you fix ur fans problem?

little osprey
#

@little osprey are you buying the 2060 or the 3060 ti

tardy lintel
#

Is it possible to have an rgb hub that has argb in and drgb in but only drgb out

little osprey
fossil halo
#

i got the fans fixed

#

but now the ram is not showing up in the woftware

#

and the amd cooler is still doing its own thing

balmy patio
#

did you do what i said for the amd cooler?

fossil halo
#

i didnt see ur message lmao

#

lemme check

balmy patio
#

sadness

fossil halo
#

oh

#

lmao

#

yea yea

#

so about that

#

i think i only have one usb header

#

on my motherboard

balmy patio
#

fr?

fossil halo
#

and that gets taken up by the front panel usb

#

i think at least

#

thats the link for the manual

#

and joesr i can wholeheartedly say I agree with your status

#

theres some other led headers like on the top left of the motherboard but idk what to do with those

balmy patio
#

i thought it came with a 3.2 gen 1 header and another normal usb 2.0?

fossil halo
#

yea

#

my front panel has one usb 3.0 and two usb 2.0

#

so i had to plug it in there i think

balmy patio
#

how about

#

make usb gone

fossil halo
#

i mean i could sacrifice the front panel ports

#

yea

balmy patio
#

rgb is first priority

fossil halo
#

ah yes

#

finally a like minded person

#

other than that dude who was adamant he wanted rgb for his cpu cooler

#

lmao

#

but yea lemme try that

#

or first honestly

#

ima try that other rgb header

#

at the top legt

#

then ill do that

little osprey
balmy patio
#

i see intel

#

i cry

little osprey
#

Intel and AMD switched

fossil halo
#

btw

little osprey
#

AMD for high end Intel for budget

fossil halo
#

btw

#

is it ok and safe to work in ur system while it is running

little osprey
#

Hell no

fossil halo
#

LMFAO

#

k lemme turn it off

#

and then change the header

#

and then i will get back

#

to see if it works

#

bye bye

little osprey
#

ty

#

Better priced

#

is there a big difference from the P1 to the MP34?

#

P1 is cheaper

#

but no

#

Ik but like is there a big performance difference?

#

No

#

Oh

#

P1 is pretty fast then?

#

you have a hard drive right

#

no no no

#

I am using SSD only

#

Bad idea

#

not good for keeping valuable info

#

Put a 2tb hard drive in for backups and such

#

ah ok

#

you can put windows 10 and your games on the ssd

#

Yeah

#

aight ty for help

fossil halo
#

Bruh

#

The bottom right of my motherboard is a hot mess rn LMAO

little osprey
#

little osprey
#

stuff like password managers school work etc

#

oh

#

ok

#

ty

fossil halo
#

wow

#

ok

#

i got the amd cooler to work

#

but not quite

#

i plugged it into a normal rgb header

vagrant olive
#

why not the normal cpu fan one

fossil halo
#

no like

#

i plugged it into the cpu fan one

#

and the rgb header

vagrant olive
#

amd stock fans have rgb?

fossil halo
#

so then i can control the fan rgb by the software

#

wraith prism

vagrant olive
#

ah

fossil halo
#

comes with ryzen 7 and up iirc

#

but yea my software is also not detecting my ram

#

is there a way to fix that

#

POG

#

I FIXED THE RGB

muted sluice
fossil halo
#

ah yes who does not want a pc rave

balmy patio
#

set it to yellow for lower ping

muted sluice
#

No

fossil halo
#

dude

#

i set it to red fo max ocing

balmy patio
#

oh wait

#

mix of colors

little leaf
#

Set it ti rgb for all around good perf

fossil halo
#

i can set it to blue for intel

muted sluice
#

I have my rgb on red for better overclocks

fossil halo
#

i present to you

#

the intel wraith prism cooler

#

and the intel core 7 3700x

vagrant olive
#

wow!

fossil halo
#

ikr

#

im a real innovator

#

wow when i keep my case open i actually feel cold

#

i think i bought too many fans

foggy hazel
#

i would recommend putting on clothes then

vagrant olive
#

why

fossil halo
#

thats actually tru

#

bc i j woke up im still in a banyan and shorts

vagrant olive
#

@fossil halo

#

hers ur new cpu

fossil halo
#

dude

#

thats exactly what it looks like

vagrant olive
#

yep

#

god tier photo editing here

#

taking comissions

balmy patio
#

ah, yes, the intel ryzen 5950x

vagrant olive
#

i cant wait for ryzen 6000

#

ryzen 6900

little osprey
#

lol

lusty gazelle
#

ok so i made a few upgrades from my old pc part picker list. What do you all think?

vagrant olive
#

how much is a 5800x again

little leaf
#

I don't think you need that much ram

#

x570 not needed

#

not sure about that psu

#

Why are you getting a 5900 rpm drive?

fossil halo
torn bluff
#

for most ryzen chips it requires at least 64gb of ram, but it isnt that necessary

#

if you have the budget then go for it

#

also with the ram

vagrant olive
#

uh

#

what

#

64 gb of ram

torn bluff
#

yeah

vagrant olive
#

no

balmy patio
#

wth

winged tinsel
vagrant olive
#

16 gigs will do just fine

balmy patio
#

that's overkill for most ppl who only look into gaming

torn bluff
#

yeah but if you wanna get like the max performance possible

stoic island
#

lol what

#

64gb would technically limit max performance

#

2x32 or 4x16 are both going to limit the freq you can run the ram at

torn bluff
#

alr

stoic island
#

so technically max performance would be something like 4x8 or 2x16 OCed to hell

#

@torn bluff either way ram amount doesn't matter for perf in general

pls

#

helpo

#

how to oc gt 710

viral ore
#

afterburner

fossil halo
#

msi one

#

viral ore
#

but its not worth doing

fossil halo
#

sure?

viral ore
#

its a 710

fossil halo
#

some dude said u get better frames

#

like i mean

viral ore
#

hardly

fossil halo
#

i want a 3060

#

which i will get in the furure

viral ore
#

then be patient

fossil halo
#

but like how do i oc this

#

why not tho

#

like in the yt videos i watched they said that it doesnt need cooling

#

for oc

viral ore
#

move the core clock slider

fossil halo
#

ok

#

wow ok

#

thats easier than i thought

little osprey
#

is the crucial p1 pretty fast?

viral ore
#

mp34 better

little osprey
#

ok

fossil halo
#

eoe

#

wow

#

i have a sp a60

#

its pretty cheap and fast

viral ore
#

A60 bad

fossil halo
#

really?

viral ore
#

yep

fossil halo
#

it was cheap

#

and it works well

viral ore
#

and its bad

fossil halo
#

has this annoying green led tho

viral ore
#

works well for now

fossil halo
#

wdym

#

does it stop working?

autumn dome
#

building my first gaming pc i have the processor and gpu. just not sure what mobo and psu is good. i have amd ryzen 5 3600 and a powercolor red dragon 5700xt gpu. any suggestion would be great. the mobo should have wifi/bluetooh if that helps.

fossil halo
#

pog

little osprey
#

Should i get the ryzen 5 5600x or ryzen 7 3700x?

fossil halo
#

get any b550 wifi

fossil halo
viral ore
#

its not the best, dont store super irreplaceable stuff on it and it shouldn't be a big deal,

fossil halo
#

stock is extremely extremely limited

viral ore
#

windows installs are replacable

fossil halo
#

oh

#

lmao ok

#

like its my only drive

little osprey
#

The cpu will be like the 3rd thing ill order and shipping for every part takes like 2 weeks and ill start ordering in a month so i think there will be stock then, idk.

fossil halo
#

but i plan on getting more drives in the future

obtuse compass
#

Trying to choose between the gigabyte oc or the msi trio for the 60ti, any feedback?

fossil halo
#

msi

#

has rgb

#

and if you dont mind me inquiring

#

mr raja sir

#

where will you be acquiring this card

obtuse compass
#

Gigabyte has it too lol

#

From a reseller on my area, almost impossible to find

fossil halo
#

oh wow

#

yea

#

there is one retailer near me that has a couple cards in stock

#

but they got scammed for the cards too

#

so they are selling it at hella high price

vagrant olive
#

bruh

#

lmao

obtuse compass
#

Scalpers are on the high end rn

vagrant olive
#

ik

#

its sad to see so many people buying these terrible prices

fossil halo
#

ikr

#

like tf bro

obtuse compass
#

I saw a 60ti go for over 1k on an ebay bid

fossil halo
#

learn something useful and make urself useful to the world

#

dont be a little sh!t sitting at home running ur bots on all the launches

#

i swear

#

literal scum of the earth

#

arguably worse than hackers in game

#

what do you think

#

vote pls

shy roost
#

Launches were never this bad huh?

fleet pagoda
#

Still waiting on my email from evga

still roostBOT
#
Xela#3257 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

shy roost
#

Jesus this bot

fleet pagoda
#

Singed up on dec 1st 7:20am

#

Pt

#

Signed

shy roost
#

Signed up a couple of days ago lol so im def far back on that wait list

fleet pagoda
#

👩‍❤️‍💋‍👩

#

I did it fairly early

shy roost
#

I feel like they should have pushed the release back so there was actually enough stock that could be purchased by consumers. Its insane that they didnt push the launch back a bit

fleet pagoda
#

I feel like scalpers and bots should be destroyed

fossil halo
#

no like

#

nvidia

#

made a statement

#

that samsung was not providing them with enough chips

#

bc of some wafer shortage

#

so then like all the stores are getting like 1 card each

#

and it gets bought by scalpers

foggy hazel
#

@fossil halo not what they said at all

#

please go and read the transcript :)

fossil halo
#

really?

#

then what did they say

#

i read some article

#

that said that

foggy hazel
#

go and read the actual transcript

fossil halo
#

where

foggy hazel
#

seekingalpha has it iirc

fossil halo
#

k

#

oh bruh

#

makes sense actually

#

bc the 20 series cards were dog

#

not really worth upgrtading from the 10 series

#

but now

#

30 series stonks

shy roost
#

So this is what i found on that seekingalpha transcript

#

“While we had anticipated strong demand, it exceeded even our bullish expectations. Given industry-wide capacity constraints and long cycle times, it may take a few more months for product availability to catch up with demand”

fossil halo
#

yea

#

that

#

i mean im ok to wait

#

gt 710 gaming

shy roost
#

Im assuming its just business as usual to keep the launch consistent with previous launches rather than actually wait to have sufficient stock to meet the demands. Cleary they knew this series was going to sell especially at the pricepoints they were marked at

foggy hazel
#

according to them, there is more to it

#

the transcript from the finance call is what you want

shy roost
#

Thank you

#

Would anyone know which ram would be better for primarily gaming? 32gb 3600 cl16, 16gb 4000 cl18

mint nacelle
#

why do u want 3600

#

what cpu are u using

hexed dew
#

rn trying to get 5900x to pair with my 3080

mint nacelle
#

3200 would work just fine

pearl apex
#

hello, i have technicial issue with my computer in games

mint nacelle
#

yeah, ur fps drops randompy

pearl apex
#

yes, especially when there is explosions or quick plays

mint nacelle
#

ohh

#

then thats a CPU problem

#

tons of explosions mess with the cpu alot

pearl apex
#

oh

mint nacelle
#

have u tried lowering ur settings ingame to counter that

pearl apex
#

i switched from ultra to high but still have the problem

mint nacelle
#

switch to medium

#

try lowering particle quality if theres a settings for it

pearl apex
#

ok ill try it

mint nacelle
#

what specs do u have again

pearl apex
#

ryzen 9 3900XT, 16Go, 850W plat, rtx 2070

#

temps are ok

mint nacelle
#

ur cooling ur cpu properly right?

pearl apex
#

and what is weird is that benchmarks dont stutter like i do in games

mint nacelle
#

hmm

pearl apex
#

yeah i have reached 78c in cpu stress test (prime95

mint nacelle
#

thats under control

#

what game are u playing

pearl apex
#

cold war

#

rocket league

mint nacelle
#

lag in rocket league

#

scam

pearl apex
#

yeah that is sad

mint nacelle
#

my brain can't calculate this

pearl apex
#

my computer either XD

mint nacelle
#

xd

#

@pearl apex have u reinstalled rocket league

#

or the games which mess u up

stoic island
#

single stick of 16gb or 2 sticks

mint nacelle
#

also, i hope ur drivers are up to date

#

@stoic island 2 sticks always

stoic island
#

that's why I'm asking them @mint nacelle

#

all they said is 16gb

pearl apex
#

yeah i just updated all my drivers a few days ago

mint nacelle
#

both gpu and cpu?

pearl apex
#

nvidia is at the latest version

stoic island
#

@pearl apex Are you running single stick of 16gb or 2x8

pearl apex
#

2x8

stoic island
#

xmp?

pearl apex
#

on the good slots

stoic island
#

and what are they rated for?

mint nacelle
#

y u asking her ram doe

#

his*

stoic island
#

Because ram matters..?

#

if it's running 2666cl20 for example

mint nacelle
#

yeah makes sense

stoic island
#

that's gonna cause issues

mint nacelle
#

true true

stoic island
#

so XMP and what they're rated for

pearl apex
#

3600 on 16 i think

stoic island
#

and also the fact that Zen 2 likes higher ram freq for 1:1 for IF

#

@pearl apex XMP on or no

#

or did you do manual

pearl apex
#

i dont know what xmp stands for

stoic island
#

no reason to know

mint nacelle
#

extreme memory profile

stoic island
#

Should enable it then

little osprey
#

so i got build help from my main pc servers

stoic island
#

It's in bios

pearl apex
#

i put it at 3600 in the bios

little osprey
#

cause im building a $2420 budget for a pc

mint nacelle
#

erm

little osprey
#

and making my current pc a racing sim while upgrading some of its part

stoic island
#

did you do timings

pearl apex
#

didnt touch that

little osprey
stoic island
#

@little osprey Don't really like case+fans, otherwise fair

#

also I'd suggest 2x16gb for future proofing

little osprey
#

(i got 8x4 ram)

#

in the list

mint nacelle
#

not a huge fan of the ssd

little osprey
#

32gb 3600mhz cl16

stoic island
#

@pearl apex Welp, you know, let's just do rtss+afterburner in game and see why exactly it's dropping

mint nacelle
#

but its alr

stoic island
#

wdym

#

rocket 4 plus is the fastest consumer drive overall

little osprey
#

thats why i chose it

mint nacelle
#

o
