not to mention the fact that I regularly do VR on a Valve Index

idle hawk
#

the 3080 wont have a vr link

wanton cliff
#

DisplayPort is what it uses

idle hawk
#

ahh ok

idle hawk
#

good luck getting a FE card

kindred iris
#

now my cpu cooler doesnt have a high pitch squeal and sound like a jet engine ๐Ÿ˜„

wanton cliff
#

FE because its cheapest but I will do with any other card (except Zotac)

idle hawk
#

u have better chances getting a aib card

#

thats fair

#

mine cost 960 retail

wanton cliff
#

which one?

idle hawk
#

gigabyte aorus master

wanton cliff
#

I would have gone with a 6900xt at that point

little osprey
#

aorus series really look so pretty

kindred iris
#

now what to do with my extra amd stock cooler

muted patio
#

Put it on the shelf

idle hawk
#

cyber punk plays flawlessly

muted patio
#

Never know when you'll need it

kindred iris
#

fair

idle hawk
#

i have a extra triple rad in case my z73 kraken gives out

muted patio
#

I kep tmine because I have an AIO. If I have an issue, I have back up.

little osprey
#

stock cooler DaHeck

muted patio
#

Wraith Prism is actually good if you have one

#

Made by CoolerMaster

idle hawk
#

Cooler master is a good cooler

kindred iris
#

i didnt go for an aio just because I know i will have to buy a cheaper variant and im afraid of tubes breaking or something

#

because its cheap

idle hawk
#

Their built tough idk where u got that from

little osprey
#

my friend built r5 3600 and used stock cooler for a while . it was like joke lol

muted patio
#

Yeah, the metal chunk ones are poo

#

But if you can get a Wraith Prism (heatpipes) they're actually good

#

RGB too

kindred iris
#

yea i was using a metal chunk one

#

lol

#

and i overheated it twice

#

and it sounded like a jet engine

little osprey
#

I ordered cooler master ml240 for him its pretty cool now

muted patio
#

Better than the 212 by a mile, I did side by side tests

idle hawk
#

Its decent won't be that good for overclocking

muted patio
#

It is actually, PBO did decent with it

wanton cliff
muted patio
#

BUt my AIO does better

idle hawk
#

I got the baby

#

Nzxt z73 kraken

wanton cliff
#

I thought the z73 was bad?

idle hawk
#

My build is complete for now

little osprey
#

aio is better anyway ig

idle hawk
#

Oh no way

muted patio
#

$7 on Amazon

idle hawk
idle hawk
#

Ik ik belongs in the build pics

crude lagoon
#

im changing motherboard, psu, and case, can i just plug in my harddrive normally that has os and not have to do any reinstalling? its from a prebuilt PC, the motherboard I'm switching to is a z-390-A pro

little osprey
#

nice

idle hawk
muted patio
#

@crude lagoon best to unisntall ALL the drivers before you switch

#

More likely to succeed that way

crude lagoon
#

do I use ddu?

muted patio
#

DDU is good yeah

little osprey
#

if pc works normally leave it alone

idle hawk
#

I'm dozing off in class

muted patio
#

For a complete motherboard change, uninstall everything first

idle hawk
#

I needed something to do

little osprey
#

some apps should need to reinstall couse license but windows works normally usually

crude lagoon
#

like only drivers right? I don't have to wipe my drives? @muted patio

muted patio
#

No, you don't have to wipe your drives

#

I'd also recommend connecting your Windows 10 license to an email account

#

Rather than using a key

little osprey
#

yep

muted patio
little osprey
#

I have free unlimited license xd I'm in first 50 person registered win10 insider program ๐Ÿ˜Ž

crude lagoon
#

I did that

muted patio
#

Ok, uninstall all the drivers

#

Then swap hardware

#

then install new drivers

wanton cliff
muted patio
#

I did it right out of the gate

#

SO when I fresh install for new hadware it's a couple clicks and working

wanton cliff
#

yeah

vague ginkgo
#

build suggestions for friend? he wants to spend 500

muted patio
#

$500 with no existing parts at all?

vague ginkgo
#

yes

little osprey
#

i3 10100 ? ๐Ÿค”

#

with 1650 ๐Ÿค”

muted patio
#

I'd go iGPU for now

#

not gonna find a GPU to fit that budget in stock

wanton cliff
#

3100 then

little osprey
#

yeah 1650s is not in stock rn but if he can find any its worth it

wanton cliff
#

I say go for a 3100 and just do low settings in all games

#

or find a Envy x360 on sale

#

powerful laptop with an iGPU

#

cheap too

#

considering the parts used

vague ginkgo
#

by iGPU yall mean integrated yes?

wanton cliff
#

yes

#

integrated with the CPU

#

so you dont need a separate GPU

#

they arent very powerful tho

muted patio
#

I mean, for 1080p they do surprisingly well

idle hawk
#

even tho igpus are not powerful enough to play games well

wanton cliff
#

iGPUs?

muted patio
#

Yes

wanton cliff
#

low settings, yes, but still pretty good

idle hawk
#

i mean meh

#

thats amd

wanton cliff
#

so?

idle hawk
#

dont really count lolol jk

wanton cliff
#

because its too good KEK

idle hawk
#

cs go dont count lol

wanton cliff
#

wdym?

muted patio
#

RDR2 medium settings 4700G is 120+ FPS

wanton cliff
#

CS:GO is the exception actually

#

I can barely hit 40 FPS on that game on 1080p low settings

#

with the 4700x

muted patio

lets just face it

idle hawk

#

aorus makes the nicest gpu's (asus strix used to be the best) but their software sucks

#

nicest looking

wanton cliff
#

how long do you think itll be before cheap iGPUs are better than 3090s

still bay
#

way too many years

wanton cliff
still bay

i cant tnhink of an igpu better than a 980ti

still bay
wanton cliff

when they figure out .25 nanometer cpus lolol

still bay

hey same

wanton cliff
#

Aura studio

#

still prefer Razer Chroma tho

still bay
#

aura studio doesnt work for me

#

i cant download it

wanton cliff
still bay
#

yeah idk how thats gonna work

wanton cliff
#

or were you talking about 250 picometer?

idle hawk
#

i meant nanometer

still bay
#

no but

#

picometer is just a smaller unit of measurement

wanton cliff
#

.25 nanometer is 250 picometer

#

below that is yottameter i think

#

there is probably something in between there

still bay
#

waiting til 10 yottameter chipsets dont hit me up

wanton cliff
#

10 yottameter

#

we'll be in space colonizing the stars by then

idle hawk
#

nah we'll be in cyberpunk 2077

still bay
#

ok new theory

wanton cliff
#

new theory, go

still bay
#

10 yottameter we will have differnet ocmputer system if that makes sense

idle hawk
#

we'll have ram in our skulls

still bay

#

like it wont be computers as we know it

#

itll be vastly different

wanton cliff
idle hawk
#

non interact-able ram however

wanton cliff
#

true

still bay
#

not necessarily biological

#

but like

#

itll be the computers u see in sci-fi shows kinda

#

not like a mobo, cpu, ram, etc.

wanton cliff
#

the SSDs in our skulls kinda suck lmao

still bay
#

like as we know it

wanton cliff

Cortana and the like?

Hello....looking to refresh my motherboard, CPU and memory. Anyone able to tell me if this is a good config?

#

Motherboard:
PRIME X570-PRO
Memory: F4-3600C16D-32GVKC
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT 12-Core 3.8 GHz Socket AM4 105W 100-100000277WOF Desktop Processor

still bay
#

wdym refresh my mobo cpu and memory

wanton cliff
#

yeah thats pretty good

muted patio
#

Yeah, that's good

still bay
#

get a new one?

small osprey
#

that seems good

wanton cliff
#

I would go for a Zen3 CPU tho

#

just me

still bay
#

yeah

#

go zen 3

small osprey
#

i dunno what that ram is but its 3600 cl16

forest swan
#

ye, I have the case, power, etc.

muted patio
#

G SKill is good stuff

still bay
#

or be ALPHA like me and get a 10900k ANTICIPATING the BEAST that the 11900k will be

muted patio
#

I'm using it now

still bay
#

just u all wait

forest swan
#

Can you recommend a part number?

small osprey
#

yea get a uh 5600x or 5900x

still bay
#

5800x is an option lol

#

why did they skip 5700x btw

small osprey
#

but its bad

wanton cliff
small osprey
#

in terms of price/perf

cursive wharf
#

xt CPU is waste of money too. If you can't get a Zen3 CPU get x CPU only

little osprey
still bay
#

and its gonna be amazing

wanton cliff
#

press x to doubt

little osprey
#

maybe on clocks and speed
but not so much on cores

#

the i9 11900k leaks aren't good in terms of cores

forest swan
#

Hei, can you provide a part number for a Zen3

wanton cliff
#

R7 5800x

still bay
#

didnt 11900k leak beat the 5950x in gaming tho

muted patio
#

5600x, 5800x, 5900x, 5950x

still bay
#

i mean its a engineering sample so i might be wrong

forest swan
#

Thank you Sara

still bay
#

we need the 5700x

wanton cliff
#

which is the only 12 core zen3 cpu

small osprey
#

5800x waste of money

#

why is 2 extra cores worth 150

#

vs the 5600x

cursive wharf
#

If you cannot get Zen3 then
3700x (3800x only if cheaper), 3900x (no 3900xt), 3950x

Hi, Just received my invite here. I'm reorganizing backups & want to add a WD 10-12TB internal drive. How to choose between black, gold & ultrastar drives? Looking for quiet & fast write speed.

forest swan
#

Those are all out of stock....no 5k series in stock

#

Thanks Hei

still bay
small osprey

warm grove
#

guess it's relative thing compared to price. faster for relatively same price of course is better

small osprey
#

if u want fast

#

get a nvme ssd

pliant lake
#

its a 10-12TB hdd

cursive wharf
#

Yes... Totally... Get a 8tb NVMe...

warm grove
#

i undertand SSD but price would be painful at 10-12TB

cursive wharf
#

don't

muted patio
#

I'd go Toshiba over WD TBH but they're gonna be pricey, $300 or so.

warm grove
#

$300 is acceptable

vital scaffold
pliant lake
#

i would reccomend the Exos 16 but they are very loud during start up

vital scaffold
#

budget 800

warm grove
#

i've had excellent experience with WD for decades and the one time i tried Samsung it was a disaster with 2 drives almost simultaneously. So I'm leary.

muted patio
#

Toshiba is top of the line. @hollow grail where are you lol?

#

She works in a datacenter and likes Toshiba over WD

#

But I think either will be fine

warm grove
#

but 256MB cache & 7200 rpm & SATA 6 is good

pliant lake
warm grove
#

not sure of difference btwn SATA I, II, & III. anyone?

muted patio
#

Speeds

pliant lake
#

1.5 3 6Gbps

blazing aurora
#

is $250 a good deal for a base 2060?

warm grove
#

so I-1.5, II=3, III=6Gbps?

pliant lake
#

yes

muted patio
#

Not bad

#

If you're wanting RTX though you will be disappoint. Really hard FPS hit

warm grove
#

RTX?

muted patio
#

Ray tracing

warm grove
#

not a concern

muted patio
#

Not for you, for orange juice

blazing aurora
#

dang

warm grove
#

๐Ÿ™‚

blazing aurora
#

I guess I'll look for a 2070

muted patio
#

I have one lol, the 2060

#

Yes, 2070 or bust for ray tracing

blazing aurora
#

what's a good price for the 2070 in that case

coarse coral
#

less than $250

little osprey
blazing aurora
#

alright then

little osprey
#

Is the Alienware Aw2721d 1440p 240hz a good buy for the Rtx 3080 (I have another 1080p 24' monitor as second)

warm grove
#

any insight about WD black vs gold vs ultrastar drives?

verbal quarry

whats the quality of powerspec psus?

pliant lake
muted patio
#

Tier C for PowerSpec

verbal quarry
#

thank you vintage

muted patio
#

YW

little osprey
#

@pliant lake yeah but are the 10gb vram sufficient for this kind of monitor and another 1080p screen

pliant lake
#

10GB is fine for 1080 and 1440, some games may exceed 10GB at 4k though

little osprey
#

Okay because i wanted to game on the 1440p one and discord or youtube on the other at the same time

muted patio
#

You'll be fine

i dont know if a 3090 is for most people lol

Okay thank you very much @wanton cliff @muted patio @pliant lake

left garden
#

Can anyone help me figure out what is wrong with my pc i have replace the motherboard and power supply and i cant seem to figure out what is wrong with it

pliant lake
#

np

little osprey
#

Yeah i thought of returning my 3080 suprim x and waiting for the 3080 ti suprim x

#

because of the 20gb vram

wanton cliff
#

the leaks were false

little osprey
#

REALLY!

#

Normally Nvidia should release this card because of the 16gb vram AMD has

muted patio
#

pffff

#

Doesn't exist yet

#

nVidia will release more cards without a doubt

#

have to wait and see which though

little osprey
#

hopefully with more vram

wanton cliff
#

RX 580 for example

#

and that lineup

little osprey
#

You're right

magic rivet
#

Omg i am getting crazy like all i want to do is buy a 3060ti but its sold out everywhere...

verbal quarry
#

wait for best buy if you want it cheap

magic rivet
#

okay

#

but do they ship to EU?

little osprey
#

Here in Germany the 3060 ti is available but at higher prices

wanton cliff
wanton cliff
little osprey
#

What do you mean? You mean the higher prices

magic rivet
#

its so expensive in EU compered to America

verbal quarry
#

how good are seagate hard drives?

muted patio
#

WD or Toshiba better

verbal quarry
#

alright i spend the extra $3

#

ty

magic rivet
#

like 3060ti in america is like 400 dollars right? but in EU they sell them for like 700 dollars

muted patio
#

Ye

verbal quarry
#

well you gotta think how much the american dollar is

#

and how much a dollar is where you live

#

then think taxes

muted patio
#

They're $700 on ebay right now lol

magic rivet
#

damn

verbal quarry
#

yea nothing is cheap rn

magic rivet
#

but i dont want to buy used

verbal quarry
#

god damn scalpers

when will they eventually restock?

Ya i know

still my point stands

wait yo

#

does anyone know one of those internal displays

#

that u can set to like a gif

#

in ur case

#

idk they just look cool i want one

pliant lake
#

on a CPU cooler? or just a standalone display?

fossil halo
#

standalone

#

like ik u can get it on an aio

im building my computer soon

languid adder
#

I got a prebuilt, ryzen 5 3600x and 2060super and im getting fps drops. can someone help me fix the problem

wanton cliff
#

drops where?

#

and when?

#

3600x and 2060s are both powerful but even they can stutter in some areas in some games

#

@languid adder

#

alright well im pretty sure she is gone

verbal quarry
#

would a 3700x bottleneck a 3080?

wanton cliff
#

no

verbal quarry
#

thank you

wanton cliff
#

8 cores at a base of 3.9ghz with a boost of... what was it, 4.3? will be fine

#

and exceptional multi core performance

#

although single core leaves a bit to be desired

#

but that was fixed with the 5800x

verbal quarry
#

thanks for the help man

wanton cliff
#

which is a bit more expensive than it should be because of it IMO

verbal quarry
#

true

wanton cliff
#

but np

oh i didnt know mb

see my name please

Sara (a stereotypically female name) | troubleshooting lady

i wont lie i dont really pay attention to the names

I mean, of course it will

#

GT710 big oof

#

worse than integrated

fossil halo
#

but i was playing krunker and my gpu was at 100% and cpu at 16%

#

so not that bad of a bottleneck

wanton cliff

#

you have a 3700x and a gt 710?

fossil halo

I mean, free stuff is free yeah?

not as fast as PCs

This is true

#

2-3 years and your parts are worth 50%

wanton cliff
#

not even half that

#

like 25% maybe

#

unless everything is being scalped, and its worth 2x

they should add like one programmable button on the case

other than power and reset

#

programmable meaning u can attach it to stuff

little osprey
#

on what case? plus no need for button unless you doing some rgb stuff

wanton cliff
#

just a reset button for windows or something

#

not power off

#

just reset

#

thats what I'd use it for

wanton cliff
#

arguably, yes

#

I prefer Razer or Logitech for my keyboards

#

most prefer logitech I think but Razer's software works better and more often

i mean, it's just for normal gaming bro, im not a pro hahah

muted patio
#

High RPM or high CFM?

little osprey
#

Uh

#

Whatโ€™s CFM

muted patio
#

Cubic Feet Per Minute of air movement

#

RPM doesn't always = more air

little osprey
#

CFM then

#

120mm?

Yes

10900K or 5950x

little osprey
#

5950x is more expensive and wins on every front

still bay
#

5950x is also newer, being 7nm compared to iirc 12 nm

#

but if for some reason i had to pick only between the two go for 5950x

next crystal
#

Intel 14nm is closer to TSMC and Samsung 10nm

#

10900k is still a processor that came out in 2020

#

wait is it?

#

yeah, Q2 2020

little osprey
still bay
#

urban trellis
#

5950x is better in all ways but it's more expensive if you want something better than 10900k at lower price get the 5900x

#

5900x is still more expensive that the 10900k but only by a bit and it's better

Why the 5900x?

hollow grail
#

im glad to see a disciple of the evo plus and 4tb blue

sand falcon
#

5950x is a thing that exists

next kestrel
#

feels like overkill

#

then again, i did add the 3090

damn

#

that expensive

sand falcon
#

5950x is less overkill than the 3090 tbh

next kestrel
#

16 core 32 thread?

sand falcon
#

I'd personally get the 5950x and a 3080

#

4k editing is heavy on the CPU

next kestrel
#

it is 4k gaming tho

#

oh welp i usually prioritize gaming over workstation perfs

sand falcon
#

Could probably fit a 5950x and a 3090

next kestrel
#

yea for 4k for sure

crimson sage
#

is there anyone here who could help me? I had a aorus x299 ultra gaming motherboard that is now broken and i need a new one but cant seem to find this motherboard ANYWHERE. and i dont know what other motherboards would be compatable

sand falcon
#

3080 should be able to handle 4k

crimson sage
#

does it really matter as long as its x299? i mean whats the differance? some are 1000 dollars some are 150 lol

sand falcon
#

@crimson sage what CPU do you have?

crimson sage
#

i7-7800x

sand falcon
#

You should probably be fine with most any x299 then.

#

I'd avoid the absolute cheapest ones, but you don't need to spend anything near a thousand dollars

crimson sage
#

ok thanks bob! just out of curiosity whats the main differance in motherboards that makes them more expensive?

sand falcon
#

After a certain point it'll just be marketing, but a more expensive board tends to be able to deliver more power to your CPU and has higher quality parts

crimson sage
#

ahh ok i see thanks alot man that really helps!

sand falcon

You're welcome, anytime!

Hi guys. I'm building my first PC. And I have an issue. My motherboard tuf x570 pro have 4+2 pin. My PSU Strix 850W cames with 2 2+2 cpu cable connector.

I'm just gonna plug one cable or the second one.

Please Help

The TUF X570 has an 8 pin CPU and a 4 Pin CPU. You need to use the 8 Pin CPU connector

i am looking to build a minecraft/ terrria/ rust server would a used xeon be good for this or should i go for something else

#

and does anyone have experience with a jingshaw wotheroard

wanton cliff
#

for a server that is

muted patio
#

Rust will need a bit more

wanton cliff
#

which Xeon is it?

plucky oar
#

i think e5 2630 v2

wanton cliff
#

should be fine, methinks

plucky oar
#

the bigger problem for me is looking for a motherboard

#

because i want something like a workstation board but the only thing that i can find is a Jingshaw motherboard that i dont think that i can link in this chat

wanton cliff
#

you can

plucky oar
#

oh this is the one

wanton cliff
#

oof aliexpress

muted patio
#

Yeah

#

I'd be looking at Ebay for a used mobo

plucky oar
#

i mean i dont care about the shiping i found it on ebay

wanton cliff
#

not about shipping

#

aliexpress is just not trustworthy tbh

plucky oar
#

i just pulled up the ali express link because it was convient

wanton cliff
#

and shipping sucks

plucky oar
#

yeah that was my thought

#

that is why io am spending the extra money on the one from ebay

wanton cliff
#

link the one on ebay?

plucky oar
#

and should i get a good gpu or just something like a 1050ti

#

i dont have the ebay link pulled up

wanton cliff
#

you dont need a gpu for a server

muted patio
#

Nope

plucky oar
#

i dont

#

oh

muted patio
#

Nothing more than to output video

plucky oar
#

yes

muted patio
#

so you can see a screen

wanton cliff
#

you do need one to set the server up but servers dont utilize GPUs

wanton cliff
muted patio
#

I mean, a $10 GT210 would be fine

#

Just something to output video

plucky oar
#

yeah so i can use my current one to set it up

wanton cliff
#

or use whatever card you have now

plucky oar
#

yeah

wanton cliff
#

exactly

muted patio
#

Yeah, you can set it up with one and then take it out

#

"headless node". Done it before. Just remote in from your current PC when you need to

wanton cliff
#

would that work while power is on?

muted patio
#

No no

#

Power gotta be off to remove it

#

Never hot plug or swap anything unless it's a Hot Swap drive

wanton cliff
#

honestly I would get a GT 210 or something so you can edit the server and stuff without pulling your GPU out

plucky oar
#

anyways thanks for the advice

Nah, the other 4 have said label created but not shipped for 7 days now

Newegg customer service said they haven't even packaged them yet

But they marked them as shipped still

#

Then they offered a replacement

Tell me how that makes sense

accept the offer and sell the other one when it eventually comes

I buy something, they mark it as shipped, they don't even package it and then offer a replacement

they cant legally ask for it back

That's not the issue I have though

My issue is why Mark it as shipped if it's not even packaged

It makes no sense

Shipping can't be that difficult

They got my case delivered to me 3 days ago and I bought that 2 days after the "shipped" items
