@whole harbor if your in CT or NY my
xotic for laptops 100000%
*shameless self promotion
Avoid gaming laptops like the plague
@median horizon TRUE
Just get a console imo
LTT did that secret shopper prebuilt thing again maybe watch the recent ones
I had a MSI one i liked
My friend had an asus laptop
Gf63 stealth and was a great deal
Her entire thing just died, and the battery broke down, a single Nvidia driver update killed it
And a Logitech G502?
I getting a 3600 and a 1660 ti
My laptop was only 1000$ in 2017 for a 1060 and i7
Absolutely based.
ik
and then once i get a monitor
my laptops gonna go on the nightstand right next to my desk
The worst part is that it is an alienware
unironically shill xotic i got 4 laptops from there personally and used them for work as well
I saw a $1600 laptop selling a i7 8700k and a 1080 with 16gb, and only 500gb of SSD space
@tribal coral shhh
I don’t even think nzxt makes good prebuilt anymore
Gaming laptops over the last few years have just been an absolute rip-off
ehh i dont agree
Careful, they’ll set your case on fire
nzxt deadass charging 1k for a i5 9400f
it depends where you get them
It’s dated.
date me
radeon 5600 xt
Still not new but better
t
plus wifi, windows and 2 year warranty
for 1k
they got that verge pc build ram speed
wifi
and rotten it depends
i will not
They’re like $30 at most
because my router is
i think uhhhhhhhh
a lot of laptops are bad value
Aren’t they selling an i3 and a 1650 for like 700
i 100% adore clevo though
🤦♂️
i3 WHEEZE
2400mhz
and it all comes in a h510 so
you know youll be using that warranty when you wake up to your house on fire
H510 is overrated imo.
its really only used by new pc builders who look at it and see it looks nice
Corsair 4000d supremacy
i love the aesthetic but the airflow
by god
im more a of a 275r man myself but i respect 4000d
Nominated in 4 awards and won/tied in GN’s “best cases of 2020”
In terms of I think best noise?
It was incredibly quiet for great temperatures
H510 trash
It also got nominated for Best Mechanical design, sadly was beat by Meshify 2
So Corsair 4000d definitely holds a strong place rn
Especially the airflow
2
hmmm
It’s reasonably sized
its a mid tower case
It can fit a 360mm rad in the front, 280 at the top
the pictures make it look rly big
As well as the fact that it can mount up 4 140m fans
Pretty big for a mid tower isn’t it?
yea
i kinda wanna go with the white version even tho most of my build is black
i kinda like the contrast
but black versions more in stock hmm
Room for 120 mm at the rear
Room for 2 140mm at the top
Room for 3 120 mm or 2 140mm at the fromt
(Go for 140’s, they’re usually cheaper and perform vastly better)
man case fans are the one thing i dont rly get too much
do most cases come with a fan hub
for more than 3
or is that something i gotta buy extra
does the 4000d come with one?
Specifically one of Corsairs Capellix.
Sadly, no, it doesn’t come with fan controllers
man
What’s your current idea for a pc, Aorus?
Yeah, no.
yikes
Though commander pros usually don’t break the bank in my experience
What it does break is your cable management sadly
my mobo has 4 sys fan ports, and a sys fan 5 and 6 labeled pump
can i just like ignore the pump and also use those for a case fan or no
I believe so.
If it has enough pins.
ez
o yea lemme check
yeah the sys fan and the pump ones all have 4 pins
so they should work?
What kind of pins does your mobo use?
wdym
i can see that for the sys_fan it has 4 pins
and its the same for the sys_fan_pump
also most likely if you buy a 3 pack you can string all 3 together and just use one sys/cas fan port
oh theyre 140mils
Actually yeah that’s perfect
no
it says 120mm
The CORSAIR 4000D AIRFLOW is a distinctive, high-airflow optimized mid-tower ATX case with easy cable management and two included CORSAIR 120mm AirGuide fans for exceptional cooling.
ill have 5 total
4 pack then-
Dunno
never heard of them
they seem ok
the design is meh but theyre cheap so idc
actually imma just get 3 arctic p12s separately
you can try the same thing by booting with one stick at a time only, but cpu debug light makes it sound like it might not be RAM
Need help just built a i9-9900k with asus z390-E board the fan lights come on but it doesn't post and fans do not spin
yeh um tomorrow im returning the cpu to get a refund and ill buy a new one when prices arent so inflated for the 3600x
Goodbye defective cpu
Tbh i was so excited to use my pc i threw away the cpus original packaging so i had to buy new plastic covers for it 😅
That was the only packaging i threw away for some reason
F
120mm aio isn’t worth it
what do you recommend?
any 240mm one should be fine
ill look into that
and the case doesn’t have good airflow
ive been told that but its the best i can find for the price
ill make later upgrades after about 5-7 months
thanks
Corsair 4000D airflow ez
ill look at it
mx330-g or mx410 mesh-g
cheaper, includes 3 and 4 fans respectively, and front mesh panel for airflow
Listen I’m gonna use the Tech YouTuber logic
i like the simplistic and clean look of the corsair
what
ya, i was looking at the fractal design-c
i love that case tbh
i love that case and will eventually get it, unless i go for a bigger rig
Meshify 2 makes me feel weird
It’s just the Define 7 with a mesh front from what I’ve seen
yea it is
for the most part
any other recommendations? i know the psu is bronze rated but again, ill upgrade parts eventually
nr600 for aesthetics
if you are going to upgrade psu to a different rating then it’s worth it to just spend the extra $30 now
All my fave cases have no airflow lol
The agony of aesthetics vs performance
with nr600 it’s basically an h510 with front mesh panel, plus a stripe
ya ill check
Ngl
smh
GN has changed the enthusiast market by a considerable amount imo.
i really like the turquoise one
dang
rip airflow though
on the side actually
eh there's prolly side intakes on the side of the front panel
wifey wants one of them tbh
hidden, there’s a vent
you don't want to use top as intake in most cases 😳
ill just get a nice aio
ya top intake sucks
literally
heh...im cringe
anyways, thank you guys for the input
this a 9700k though 🅱️
👁
Hey
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/NffPgt Would this be good enough for 160FPS on fn, editing and streaming 900p
how long do newegg returns usually take ?
btw I am not paying the part picker GPU price
i dont think so can i make it better
@little osprey https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/dpMK2V
I would get b550 mobo
for 30$ MORE 3700X/3070 IS BETTER THAN 9600K/2060 CORRECT?
@stiff patio you're probably like 200$ over budget
They're paying msrp on 2060, not pcpp listed price
exactly...
oh
will I really be able to tell the difference between a 1440p monitor and 1080p monitor
@tender fjord don't know until you try
Because I am not you
I can't tell you what you will see
maybe once covid ends I'll go to a store and check it out
i did
yeah but as mr111 saisd it depends on how other people see things
that's why i said that "i did"
oh wait
M27q is better
M27q should have better color
thanks
hello its a me again
is this good
if yes
what are the best mini itx case under 70usd
amzn or newegg
amzn prices are 10 times lower than newegg
@here
is this good
I'd say a rosewill captsone is a good idea for that budget
NOT ROSEWILL
All all, I am looking to build a PC design for Day Trading, Can I get some spec's / recommendation - my budget is $1200. max . would love to get 128 GB RAM
I said maybe a server type build would be better for @cursive locust
if it isnt gaming you dont need a gpu, unless you dont have acpu with integrated graphics
capstone is b tier
if you need a gpu get a 710
i use seasonic
WIDEUS
@eager flower - do you have a recommendation of a server or high power workstation ?
hallo
hi
my existence must be ended
its not gunna blow up
probably not tbh lol
how much day trading are you doing where it needs the poweer
W or E Xeon processor would be good
no
Ok a serverish PC is hard with 128 gigs of ram and your price point
that case is nasty
what's fattydove lol
ssd

that ssd is not even on the ssd master list
it's almost garaunteed dramless given it's price, and its SATA
I have an intel i9 10th gen overclocked and 32gb of 3600mz ram, but a 1650 for the graphics card. Roast me.
you are doing just fine yourself, no need for us to get involved
looks..off
probably sata 3 dramless
L5 lite 3d at 240 gb is a good option if you're on a budget
vulcan and mx500 is also a viable choice
Is it bad if that I set my motherboard down on carpet?
should be faster than 4x
i mean odds are nothing will happen but yes
please do not do that lmao
i'd advise against it
Well I already did without thinking lmao so that’s not good
Hopefully it still works
it will probably work
ive never heard of static killing a part tbh, better safe than sorry
Literally not being able to play the recommended on most AAA titles
i would roast you for not being able to get a 30XX?
Will it hurt my other parts of it doesn’t work?
eh
No just a good graphics card in general
50/50
a 1650 is a midrange card
you should be fine though
i run a 1060, which is worsw than a 1650, and run most if not all games i play at 100+
about what? a 1060?
Obs and warzone do not mix I know that much
30fps for something i forget
building exactly a week from right now
obs and warzone will mix
Make sure your encoder is NVEC for nvidia, and you might have abad CPU
just tone down your stream settings
and your game settings if necessary
i.e. 720p 30fps with 2000kbps
something like that should let you run your game at higher quality settings
I’ll try that. I know my cpu is good since it was checked by digital storm.
it helps, i've tested it myself
reduces the load on your gpu if you have it pinned due to game settings
???
weird equation, but okay
i know what you mean
a(3)=3a
was kidding
I do, if I get a 3 on the math portion for my test today
the final i can tank and still be at an A
Oof you can’t send memes 😅
I literally just got a warning from Newegg
newegg discord is p2w
It said something about links aren’t allowed when I used a discord gif
Oh
what's the best cpu below 150USD (used or unused)
3200g or 9400f for new
3400g when its on sale
used is just up to how much searching you do
what is the AMD equivalent of 3400g?
3400g is AMD
Yeah but if you were comparing it to another cpu from amd
you mean intel
I dont know I guess there really wasnt one
just checked looks like its a 2600 equivalent
if could spend 10$ more 10400
but like a 2400g is also ryzen 5 like the 3400g and costs $100 more
they do weird naming things
no the naming scheme makes sense
Intel has a ton of random numbers
2400g 2nd gen 3400g 3rd gen
they jus add extra numbers for us to differentiate, which is nice
how does a 2400g ryzen 5 for $250 and a 3400g ryzen 5 for $150 make sense
why didnt they switch them
2400g doesn't have production anymore
so price raised due to less supply
3400g outperforms 2400g
yeah it does its just odd that its by such a small amount
who need help
nobody apparently
ok
all good 👌🏼
smh
how do i know which power unit i have to pick for a build
send us ur build
the specs of the rest of your build
go 200w over estimated power, and check to see if there's any other ppl that made a system like the one your planning on building
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HPXW9N
is this a good build
CPU Ryzen 5 3500x
GPU GTX 1650 msi super gaming x
Storage 1tb hdd
optional storage 480gb kingstone ssd
Motherboard Asus Prime B450m-a/ Socket Am4/ Amd B450/ Ddr4
Power supply Evga Gd 600w - 80+ Plus Gold Certified
Ram ddr4 8gb 2400mhz hyper x fury black
Case Aerocool Cylon Black RGB, Vidrio Templado (tempered glass)
for around $500
good budget build yeah
thanks
you'll be fine with that psu
a 600w will easily be enough
not with the gpu
doesnt look like it, but you should plug all the parts into pcpartpicker
just to see if the site shows anything
wat
pcpartpicker can be wrong so careful
is that like a site to check if theres any incompatibilities
your build is fine tbh
everything should be compatible
double check if you want
but why the 8gb 2400 mhz ram ?
can someone like help me, i dont have a build, i have a laptop but idk where the tech support chat is, so im coming here
basically this randomly started today, my computer randomly lags, my cpu and gpu usage randomly just shoot up then go back down and it makes my entire laptop
just lag out
can you check your temps?
how do i do so?
that ss is from roblox, its not happening in just roblox, i just used roblox as they have a micro profiler and performance stats
lemme see if they have temp
no it doesnt have tempature
uh i forgot the name of the program
i5-10400F with b460 or ryzen 5 3600 with b450
?
i5-10400F is significantly cheaper right now so I'm leaning towards the better choice for my budget
ill try and look rn
I don't know where I should ask this question so I'm going to ask it here. I've had my PC for about a month at this point and whenever I stream an application discord isn't picking up the application noise (yes I'm streaming the application and not my screen). Would there be any fix to this issue?
If you have a solution please ping me
i5 for pure gaming, ryzen 5 for all around performance
i have another laptop with an amd ryzen 5 2500U, i game on it, and it works pretty well it does its job, but can i have others opinions on the 2500U
@little osprey Hwinfo
which do i download?
download in top right i think
alr
i ran it and dont know what anything means lmao
send ss
are you running anything on your computer rn
my laptop doesnt feel hot at all
like games or stuff\
yes, im on a google meet but it was doing it when i wasnt running anything either
i think if the max is 82C its running a little hot
would be scary to think what it would go to if u were playing games
i mean
it is a laptop tho
if u can open a game of something and see what it goes to
lemme open a game
they have higher safe operating temps, if you really want lower temps then get a cooling pad
i opened a game, and it went up around 84-95 degrees
it was switching between 70-94ish
94 seems high considering you didnt have it open for awhile
but someone who knows more abt laptops could confirm that
or prove it wrong
If i change my ram speed in bios does it give any problems to my pc?
could it be my memory usage:?
yea could check
no worries sorry i couldnt solve it
nooo its fine lol
not everyone is amazing with laptops and sh
i prefer laptop over pc, i wanna be able to take it places, i do agree that pc > laptop but laptop works better for me
cya!!!
same ngl
Hey guys. I'm building my first PC. Wanted to build one that is going to have amazing performance and super stable. I'm between MSi-MPGZ490 WIFI or Asus Rog Maximus XII formula. Suggestions? I'm also open to another brand. Going to be using the intel i9, 10900k
Quite expensive boards
true
@coral wasp will you be looking to overclock your cpu?
perhaps, haven't figured that out yet
they are both great
here another opsion
Do you need wifi?
is it safe to click on a link from someone named dummy 🙂
i'm getting mixed reviews between the 10900 and 5900x
F
i know the AMD is hard to come by
5900x is slightly better but very hard to come by.
this is coming from an amateur, but i would say maybe research your components and what you want to do before you start making buying decisions like this, considering both of those mobos are quite expensive
i'm definitely a newbie
@coral wasp anyways, do you need wifi or will you just be using Ethernet?
also the gpu market is wack rn
i'd like wifi
Asus Z490-plus wifi is another option
aorus mobos are better tho
@coral wasp if you do go with an amd cpu i highly recommend teh aorus pro ac
i'm not in a rush so I could wait for the AMD
i've read the reviews and they all favor the 5900 over the i9
so i only have 1 4 pin jrgb plug in my case and i need 3, 3 pins plug for my corsair fans, what should i buy on amazon to fix the issue?
but i need 3 pin plug, does 4 pin also work with 3 pin plug?
4 pin jrgb plug split into 3, for a 3 pin rgb fans
oh
That splitter is the wrong splitter for argb
you dont have any 3 pin headers?
ye, i thought they were asking for a 4 pin splitter for 3 outputs
i went in 3 shop, all of them only had 4 pin splitter
seem i can plug a 3 pin fan in a 4 pin connector it seem
@coral wasp Alright, if you go 5900x, and can get your hand on one, a board I'd recommend would be a B550 aorus elite ax
@gusty mica Here's the thing, are we talking about rgb or fan header?
Because for rgb, 3 pin and 4 pin are vastly different, one is 5v, the other is 12v
but for fans, 3 pin and 4 pin are the same.
the fans are rgb 3 pin
Rgb go boom
Reason: Bad word usage
oh damn
and if i stick with the 10900x intel
10900k
The Z490 plus wifi and the Z490 aorus ac are both good options
Welcome to the MSI Global official site. We are the top Gaming gear provider.
If you go intel overclock
here's my board, two plug of sys fan 4 pin, and the bottom plug is jrgb1 4 pin
RGB left, aRGB on the right
should i get 250gb ssd + 2tb hdd or a 500gb ssd
@gusty mica what exact fan?
corsair 3 pin rgb fans c3
The Carbide Series SPEC-DELTA RGB is a tempered glass mid-tower ATX case with striking angular styling, powerful airflow and three included RGB cooling fans.
checking the manual
yeah there's nothing about the fan in the manual
looks like it's 12v rgb
12 v dc 0.38a brushless fan
seem i got a 4 pin splitter already
but went i checked the board at the shop there was 2 3 pin plug witch why i got confuse
whenthe
will open up the case and check all the wire
should i get 250gb ssd + 2tb hdd or a 500gb ssd? hdd is seagate barracuda btw
depends on what you are going to do with them
performance vs. storage is what that is
the 500gb is about $60, the hdd + ssd is around 75
because some people just want more storage
oh in that case 250gb ssd+2tb hdd
oh okay thanks
so that fattydove thing
its a ltt meme
uncultured swines but in a good way
is the rx570 8gb better than the 1650s @here
or no
ok i figured it out
my rgb fan come with 2 wire one is 3 pin other one is 4 pin with a splitter already
@stoic island
Can someone give me a 1800 CAD(Canadian dollars) build please
Naed
@foggy hazel
If u can please.
Would do it
But don't have time again lol
i9 9900k
2 tb + boot
i can
is that what u have or want
Sure
ok
is the i5 10400 worth 50$ more than the i3-10100
Did anyone see the guy with the 4 3080s in build pics
Yes
That is +2 cores & +4 threads
Total: $1819.80 cad will that work
@zealous edge
do not buy that 3070
why a m.2 sata?
that is an ssd, its just not worth it for an m.2 to be sata
yeah but theres no point in getting an m.2 if its sata
ikik
also yeah the cooler...
Out and about, so no list building from me
rip
Does anyone have gpu recommendations for a mini tower build?
Like cases?
Yeah, a mini case size
Idk maybe but the h200 is nice
Many*
I think the airflow isn’t the greatest tho by looks
Oh sorry, I misunderstood your question. I was actually already looking at that for my case lol I'm asking what gpus would be best to put in a mini sized case
I know some gpus are pretty big so there could be some size limitations
It can fit a 3080
Oh, okay then. I've never seen a mini in person so I didn't realize how much it could actually fit. Trying to help a friend build a mini
Hey everyone I am new. I want to build my first computer and I was wondering if anyone could give me a list of what to get
Ah, beautiful! Thank you. I guess that was probably a dumb question lol I appreciate your patience
What's your budget?
1,500 at the most
anyone know the size constraints with a 290mm gpu and a fractal design meshify C?
with a front mounted radiator with 140mm fans?
what about a 280mm gpu?
Not really sure
I have a question you know those ryzen 7 prism coolers it has 3 cables the cpu fan header and the rgb ones so what’s up with the other rgb connectors
Do you need both of them or plug in only one ?
If I remember you only need 1 to be able to change the color
Using cooler master
Oh

How is this for a mini tower build? I put the H400 case because pcpartpicker doesn't have the 210 listed for some reason. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dZLxbh
Edit: I should add that it's for a friend that is wanting to record themselves playing games and video editing
Looks great except the mobo might need a bios update
@bitter flint
Can I show you what I’ll pick @zealous edge
Sure
Gonna take a while cause I gotta check compatibility
Cool cool! Thank you very much. When I bought that mobo but the regular size version it came with the BIOs update so I would hope that one would too, but even if not, it's doable.
Ok
I love newegg mate
Nvm everything’s so expensive rn
better then best buy
@bitter flint I would go with the b450m ds3h v2 although
@bitter flint i wouldnt go with a 5600xt for media creation, as nvidia has encoders, and the new amd cards do too
i have a question revolving around choosing a graphics cars
go for it
is the gigabyte 2060 super good?
ryzen 3700x
prolly around 600 gonna wait for prices to go back down
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/njGMTJ @zealous edge
@desert gulch oh okay, what card would you suggest that's around the same price point of 300?
get a 3070 or 3060ti instead dragon
curls id say go for a 3060ti when its in stock
@indigo crescent gotcha! Thanks. I really appreciate having the help
or whatever new amd card that will be around that price
a 5600xt is horrible price wise a 330 anyways
thanks dwella
Does the fans from an aio go to the fan headers or connect to the cpu cooler connector
So it only takes the cpu cooler header to connect everything on the aio
ohhh fans from aio could daisy chain and go to CPU_FAN1
if its a 2 fan one id go to the second cpu fan header
pump on aio should go to the header on mobo called AIO_PUMP
its a regular fan header except it runs at %100 all the times, since you dont adjust speed of an aio pump
where should i put the ram on an intel mobo? i know that ryzen benefits from dual channel but i don't know much about intel processors
ok should i just get 500GB?
@fiery flicker what's the total budget and what are you looking to store in general?
just playing games and occasionally streaming
and under 120
so i check my manual on my motherboard, both jrgb1 & 2 connector seem to be for 5050 rgb led strips 12v, but my question is does it support 4 pins RGB fans also?
https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/589689072692494356/786287872281411584/unknown.png my splitter for the rgb fans
m.2 under $120? just casual gaming and occasional streams
Guys do you know if an usb to hdmi adapter would work if I try to connect a monitor to a aorus x570 master with a Ryzen 3200G? I do not have a GPU at hand right now 😦
link?
@ancient yacht that CPU (technically a APU) allows you to use the hdmi/dp outputs on the mainboard itself
Hi, I want to use Synology NAS for backup. And the backup will be accessed by multiple users via internet. Could you please tell me hidden cost associated with it? Is DiskStation Manager free? I have found some information in google. But I want to verify it from here. Thank you.
DiskStation manager license is bundled with synology products
Yes the problem is that the x570 mobo does not have any hdmi or dp ports that’s why I wonder if I USB to hdmi adapter would work 😅
@foggy hazel and as I mentioned I don’t have any GPU at hand 😦
hmm
unless they have wired the usb-c to reroute the signal, the igpu seems to be a waste on that cpu for that board
because, as you said yourself, no hdmi/dp outputs on that one
@ancient yacht almost all aorus mobos have hdmi ports
not this one @vagrant olive
hmph
that is the back IO
I do have a usb type c to hdmi adapter I just hope it would work
Thanks naed yep that’s my mobo
i am grabbing the manual for a check right now @ancient yacht
My new pc just arrived today
I was trying to build the new pc with a Ryzen 5000 and obviously a RTX 3000 or RX 6000 but they all out of stock
the parts? or did you buy a prebuilt
Prebuilt
ah
Bc I'm lazy
ah, is the gpu the only thing ur missing priceless?
Yes aorus
I mean
Technically the cpu is on its way but I have all the other components
@ancient yacht hmm, so far, based on the manual info, you are out of luck.
The Ryzen 3200G will be here on Saturday
So that means I would need a GPU if I want to get the system running :/
aye, according to the manual at least
Yep I will do the anyways and see what happens haha
yeah you can try but its kind of just up to chance
I just would have loved to save the money instead of getting another GPU while I wait for 3080 to be restocked
do you not have another pc?
Laptop
I mean I can wait but I just want to make sure that all the other components work you know
what you can do if you want to get some use out of ur monitor is just use the laptop as the pc and attach an hdmi cable
aye, sorry @ancient yacht looks like you are left in the hands of lady luck
Haha I know naed 😂
That’s what I am doing rn @vagrant olive
My laptop is powering all my setup 😂
lol
But I was careless when getting the mobo, I didn’t check if it had hdmi or dp ports
oof
So as naed said I’ll try with the usb type c adapter
@stable solar
stop advertising ur weird ass
1 member server
what even is that
toti suntem egali
If it doesn’t work I guess I’ll get a 1050ti or something until I get a 3080 😪

Cool beans
can anyone help me out, building a PC with this motherboard. https://www.newegg.com/msi-h310m-pro-vlh-plus/p/N82E16813144370?Item=N82E16813144370
But having issue finding proper ram that works with it/
2666mhz is the max speed
I did man, its saying valid but its not

@jagged escarp when you say its not valid, what do you actually mean?
32gb?
The fastest speed it supports is 2666mhz don’t buy the board
its just needed for business
that is a 32gb total kit @jagged escarp (on the list you linked)
yes sorry it is 32gb
that ram that's in the build not showing compatible. lucky i caught it before i bought it.
@jagged escarp you keep on talking about "compatible"
please elaborate what you mean
https://www.newegg.com/team-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820331354 that ram wont work with that board according to reviews.
which reviews?
because there is not technically anything that prevents that ram kit from being used with that board
it just runs at slower speed
indeed
"The biggest downfall for me with this purchase is that this motherboard isn't 100 percent compatible with memory chips. Has to be a specific manufacturers and chipsets."
ah, so buyer reviews then
so i went digging and could not find that ram in the list form the board
its listed on MSI website
you mean the QVL?
yes
85% of the ram that WORKS in the board is NOT in the QVL
whats the difference between both of those gpus
sounds good to me then, ill go ahead and grab it. as it seems that really dont matter
is the CRYORIG M9 Plus Dual Tower Cooler a good place holder for a i7-9700k until I get an aio?
one is factory overclocked, the other is stock
you can tell by the "O" in the model number
so i would just buy the non factory oc one and then jhust oc it on my own
QVL is used by the companies that are either early adopters or need to run full slot occupancy @jagged escarp , do keep in mind, thats the rough idea behind it. But its really a carry over from the enterprise/server side of things
and its like 30 dollars more
yep
and yes, the kit in the list should work just fine @jagged escarp
thanks i was very confused since i could tell no difference ty
why yes, i do have glasses, thank you for noticing :P
great thank you!! good info, thought it wont boot or something.
nah, it will just clock down and chug along at the max speed the board and cpu supports which is 2666
yeah thats fine on speed, just needed for small business needs
aye aye
not for me either, currently building my own personal build
I go to buy my parts on newegg and it goes from 850usd to 931usd thanks coupon codes :/
i tried using them also and they get taken off
hm?
unless that build is made to look pretty and intentionally limit the amount of performance per dollar value of it? i would change a bunch of things
I'm getting a placeholder cpu air cooler so I can save 70-100 dollars for now
everything else is the bare minimum of price
on newegg with the non working coupon its the same as amazon 😦
suggestions
yes but it was a build for looks
have you bought all the parts already or?
yes, pretty much everything is here except for the CPU
then suggestions are not relevant :)
yeah, this is just a work PC, looking to build a new one in the next couple months with bigger case and better air flow
that current case has very low air-flow, and the vertical GPU will make it even hotter
https://www.newegg.com/patriot-32gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820225121 im going with this ram as you said the board cant go any higher with ram.
Hi everyone, what would you pick between an Asus Prime X570-Pro vs ASRock B550M Steel Legend?
neither board or cpu support higher
@final meadow look at IO, see what fits you best
In a bundle, ASRock is $120 cheaper
it's just that X570 is much more likely to support future CPUs.
i went with a x570-pro
they support the same cpu's
470?
B450 does not have the same support as X470 does.
you mean 570 hopefully
BRUH READ
and you are the only one talking about 400 series chipsets :)
BRO
But it’s B550 vs X570
Haha
OMG GUYS
Please listen.
If you want to compare X570 to B550
You have to account for the fact that AMD supports the X series chipsets for more longevity
than they do the B series.
Look at the support table dude.

should i do an aio liquid cooling or...?
