do you guys know if the argb connector sits a little loose on the motherboard?
stoic island
They don't exactly have a locking mechanism so don't expect it to be tight..?

like should they be able to easily pull off if you try to pull it off?

Furthest from the CPU, skip a slot, then install a slot

By the way, at this moment, we don't know the issue, so we're going through some broad troubleshooting, the issue isn't pinned down on the ram.

I couldn't remember if you had a Z490 or not, had to look
Can ONLY do that with 10400 on a z490

What’s would I have to look for when wanting to add rgb fans to my rig?

The size of the fan mainly
You can always get a hub if there's not enough headers on your mobo

wd blue nvme 1tb is 100$ on amazon
placid notch
How do I know whether it’d be compatible? The current factory fans of the case aren’t compatible to the mobo unfortunately
idle hawk
ummm i think its wd green thats dramless
obsidian wigeon
ye
next kestrel
thats a sata drive
obsidian wigeon
the nvme blue is sn550
next kestrel
i think thats the one without dram

anyway, i think the team group mp34 should be good

A Fox Named Kuro#2883 has been warned

Yep, get mp34
obsidian wigeon
That's not worth it
The team group mp34 is only like 109 rn on amazon
1tb
Has dram
next kestrel
lower speed/less reliability
little osprey
It's the same speed, it's a m.2 1tb
Which means you get all you space on 1 drive making room for future upgrades, you keep your speed, get the same space, and it's cheaper
next kestrel
not all m.2 drives have the same speed
idle hawk
i just need it for a game storage
next kestrel
honestly then yea thats fine

how do you cut a case?

viscid glade
CableMod themselves confirmed this is what you're looking for, it's only an issue of how much clearance you'd have in ur case
little osprey
So do you really need 2 Curved monitors or just 1 curved and 1 flat?
I was thinking of buying a Curved Monitor and a flat one
obsidian wigeon
ew crucial p1
just buy mp34 lmaooo
it's only 10 bucks more
970 evo is also still ovepriced to my eyes imo
the mp34 still gonna last a long time, 970 evo is unneeded

hi, i just built my first pc today and so far its running alright. the only thing i have left to do is connect all the fans, but i have 6 case fans and not enough headers on my motherboard to cover them all. I heard on google that you can use the molex connectors on the psu. Is this true? Would that be more efficient than buying a hub?
little osprey
you can always buy fan splitters
bronze tulip
would the splitters be better than the hubs?
little osprey
how many fans do you have in your case and how many fan headers
bronze tulip
on my mobo i have 4 and i have 6 fans
little osprey
i think you can get like a 2 pack of fan splitters for like 8 bucks
which will turn 1 fan header into 2
personally id go with the splitters but if youd prefer to go with a hub you can
bronze tulip
okay cause i have just 6 case fans
unless you want to counts aio fans
in that case its 8
so whatever works the best and stuff is what ill look into

U need power
Thats it
muted patio
And monitor out
small osprey
That too
muted patio
Yes, you'll need to unplug the monitor from your motherboard video and plug it into your graphics card
blazing aurora
Okay cool thanks
muted patio
Just remember, if you install the GPU and get no signal on the motherboard, you forgot to change the cable lol
I literally had that happen last night with someone here
blazing aurora
so the process for building a machine w/ and w/o the dedicated card is pretty similar?

@stoic island Nvm from it, Can you tell me what spec you gonna buy if you have a 750Usd as budget for Pc?
tender peak
I'd try for a x570 chipset board, even if you have crappier components you can always upgrade later on down the road
providing its not a micro or baby at mobo
However, the prices might be fluctuating wildly in the next few months depending upon world events/ hardware releases.
stoic island
750usd
10400/3600 + 1660 super/5600xt
that sounds about right
maybe 2060/5600xt
agile rivet
Everything not only video card.
stoic island
hm?
10400/3600 for CPU
2x8gb 3200c16 ram
B460/B550 board
maybe z490
Storage wise at least a 500gb sata/nvme ssd, maybe plus a 2tb hdd
1660 super/2060/5600xt for GPU
some decent 500w or so PSU, EVGA BR/BA for example
