bro dude

lili is getting anrgy
if you think ur smart enough which there is a very very small percentage u are
then every one else here is dumb
so then leave
im just organizing some files rn
dont speak, you arent smart enough
An entire handheld system like that vs an arcade cabinet is like building a wooden sailboat vs an entire boat, too many technicalities, things won’t just piece together like a puzzle
like to be fair it seems like a fun project
well Ill come post it when im done for now thanks @wanton cliff @fossil halo
it went from swimming to rubiks cube to building a psp laptop to toxicity
im just saying its not attainable
As someone who has built both types of boats before and supervised the building of many other types of boats before, this is a fantastic analogy
XD
wait... u built a whole boat before
well
you're gonna end up with some core m3 sbc in a badly built enclosure with half functioning joysticks and a cheap 720p panel from aliexpress
thats acrtuallty cool
fixed one up
ur a high schooler right
thatll work for a week if youre lucky
they are made on drydocks, which I dont really have access too
and youre gonna pay 500+ for the experience
but as for glasswork and engines and sails and batteries and stuff go, i know what I am doing
fiberglass that is
that’s cool though
yea my daughter talented
hell yeah
uwu
where did he go
oh great links dont work

this is true
I found a tutorial and I was gonna say its just this build but with a protective chassis
talk a bit more and youll be able to send
it uses a HP x360 laptop Mobo etc etc
im saying there is no way you can do it cheaper
those suck
-typed from an HP Envy X360
and the people who have done it have degrees
lol
and access to tools that you dont have access to
ElectroBOOM

ok look heres the thing about me I dont quit and I have access to tools my friends parents have masters in engineering etc
there are two types of people; those who can extrapolate from data
alright then. If you think you can do it, then by all means
go ahead
we cant stop you
we are just warning you
I have the ability to create this I just need to get a kick in the right direction with a mobo or something
im just telling you its not going to work
that wouldnt work
thats to bulky
and that chances are you dont have the ability
a laptop mobo, to be sure, is your best bet
when it does I will send you a photo :)*
and that its just going to be a very expensive way to find that out
perhaps wait for the Zen3 laptops to come out?
hey how about one of those raspberry pi

thats what I said I just dont know which one to use
wait for the Zen3 mobos to come out
not strong enough for gaming, cant run windows 10 without heavy mods
ok
at that point just use the laptop if you're gonna pay that much for a motherboard
honestly, would it be so bad to just buy a laptop then
also the X360 mobos are soldered to all the components already so you cant really use those, idk what guide you are following
its just such a dumb idea
that i rly want to see it play out and fail
but i also dont want to see them lose money on the dumb idea
@celest horizon lmao i think you might get a kick out of this
just read up
I encourage people to try cool and innovative projects and it’s cool that you’re willing to try this and all, but it’s just an unlikely scenario as it stands. If you’re absolutely dead set on it though, your best bet is finding a relevant Reddit and asking them
^^^^^^
what's the tl;dr?
basically
he wants to build a psp/nintendo switch on windows 10 using laptop parts
Wants to build this
my man ehre wants to make a psp laptop
and thinks it will be easy because he has built an arcade cabinet
kid wants to build their own windows handheld for less than $650 and thinks they can do it easily
and theyre like16

dude its not that hard
I mean, if you're using cheap/spare parts, I don't see why not try
a 10 year old can figure it out
theyre trying to make it out of new parts though
THANK YOU
$650 budget I think?
he isnt tho, he is going to be buying laptops specifically to rip parts because he doesnt think a raspberry pi will work
why would I do that
and it wont, to be fair
Some people have a lot of spare money
I dont
if you have a lot of spare money you just buy the handheld
thats why theyre stupid
becuase my parents
cause that's the only way you can, realistically
i mean
as someone who has literally worked with companies that do this
as their like
only thing
there is no way its happening 
his parents aint letting him buy one
lol see he gets it
yep
from educated people's responses
your best bet is making your own motherboard for this and thats something im confident in saying you cant do
it looks to be very difficult and close to impossible
but then again
forks is v v v v v v smort
Forks might be my only hope
there we go, gotta do step by step Forks, lol
forks is oc god right
just take out the “oc” part and yeah
LMAOOOOO
reddit gold lol
im the kind stranger
thanks for the gold, kind stranger
just ethernet stuff?
i found it mildly humorous
lol
forks said he didnt know

Ill just try to wear my mom down xD
idek if forks knows anything related to this
tell you what; get an electrical engineering degree first
but you gotta admit the idea of making it is nice
lmaoo
then come back
did I ask for your opinion sara
no the idea is so good
its a rly fun idea
kinda yeah
colledge is bs
ooooh
but
thats where ur wrong my g
its not possible to pull off
depends on field
your just paying money for something you can learn by research or trial and error
give it another 10 years or so yknow? Then try again
u wont get a job anywhere relevant if u dont go to college
LOL yea
i mean i dont need a degree in my field
i also do
i dont plan to get one either
doesnt mean dont get a degree tho
but a degree is very useful
Alot of people in the engineering and programming fields who are willing to employ and teach me fresh outta high school
That’s a great idea, stick to that
Obviously you find some sort of enjoyment out of it
May as well continue that path
I mean dont get me wrong I will go to college and get a degree
cant get hired without a degree 
i mean i did it
and continue to do it 
i wouldnt say you should
but
you made lililabs and gained notoriety, that doesnt count
just not a doctorate 8 years for nothing xD
I don’t have a degree, wish I’d of finished college but dropped out after surgery. Bad thing is it’s just a job I dislike. Not hard or anything and pay is good, I’d just like to do something I’m passionate about in the future, like work for NASA
hey thanks, you too dude, best of luck
ight
well I am probs gonna just buy one if I can wear down my mom xD
also whoever said thr 4500u was vega 7 was wrong its vega 6 xD
kek
thoughts on this work pc?
OK wait theres a lot of issues
No GPU either
fallen you think you got this?
I do
I will Lili I won't let you down
what does your dad do, we can start there
1tb storage
so multiple programs and tabs?
yes
Whats your budget, I'll remake your build
850usd, im in canada
ye
Ah
Army Koichi
Fallen is doing the list right now so I’ll leave that to him
In the meantime
@grim fern what kind of games are you going to play on this PC?
its a work pc for my dad
Are there any games?
He’s 17 lol
and then i realized i screwed up
How so?
if you count solitare, then yes
so a gt710 or 1030 used works
For 850 USD tho you might as well get a 3060Ti
also this
why spend $400 on a GPU you can't find if gaming isn't needed
for some reason
True
yeah just get an apu
^^^^
Does 10700k have an iGPU?
I was going to try and fit a 10900k and no gpu
that thing will shred through most office tasks
This is true
Might be possible if you skimp out on RAM and disk space
for accounting more cores will be better
I don't think I am going to do a 10900k lol don't want to skimp out
he asked for a terabyte or more
the real question is how many more cores
Oh my, what for?
hes an accounting man doing accounting things
More than 6 is worthless IMO, more than 12 is overkill
WTH
i hope not lol
of storage lmaoo
server tupe
asthetics doesn't matter correct?
nvm 10600k is better imo for this
Useless for Intel, especially with no gaming
ANyone have a MATX case
Nah
mATX fits in ATX, doesn’t it?
it does
not in CAD antago
but looks bruh
They want it slim
Ah, makes sense now
ITX is a pain, I could do it though
yeah
but the prices for a 10600k and 10700k arent the same in CAD
lolll
Imagine no dGPU for CAD 
its a $100 difference
wait
i think
we are being confused
cad is canadian dollars or computer aided design
canadian dollars
Reason: Bad word usage
guys
LMK of any edits
im not posting this on #build-pics because its more of a question
could you explain this a little bit better? do you know what specific software he is using? just an internet browser and ms office?
any comments on my cable management?
what
I am satisfied with it but I think it can get better
office 365, a bunch of chrome tabs, thats all i know
there
Sassy
dont get me started on the mustard cables
get some psu extensions
jabe like a thing
should I push for slower speeds but 32 gigs
where u can get cables out of the around the psu shroud
no
yessir
could we potentially go itx
like down there
Yeah gimmie some time then
cool tysm
ITX seems to not be possible?
thats the same picture
i cant its already in
with the lights on
but oyu get the point
2 things down there
for what?
well then
i dont get it bc i cant see it kek
turn on the lights
and take a picture of ur pc
u can rewire it an turn it back on later
ok
Honestly just get a 3600 and a 1650 tbh
Never mind give me time
im small
also you cant find much reasonably priced 3600s in canada
stocks are big low
literally everyone is building a pc
Easier for my head tho since I don’t deal with Intel
lmaooo
Didn’t know that one tho
there
yes i used a filter give me a break
underneath
i see
the gpu power dilivery
its more of a question than a showcase
Not really keeping up with chat tbh
yessir
yea
i will wait for my dad to do it
very epic, thank you for your big help
so easy
ok
No problem, dimensions still need to be checked
on my psu
how old are u lmaoo
actually
I can check a few rn
yea just do it urself
before i do it
becareful ofc
anything else
lemme see
since there is actual light
um not really
maybe route the front panel cables behind the lip of the top fan
thats about it
looks good tho
except for ketchup and mustard power cables
yeah
@hollow grail did I make you proud
wow
huh
with modualr its just cleaner round back
might have been able to go cheaper on the ssd but overall 4.5/5
wow
Ill take it
Cablemod cables and sleeves?
i have a suggestion
mp34 great in usa
but canada uses monopoly money
Lol
Go for it
i think the p1 is a better value in cad?
if its avaliable where you live, get a gammax 400 instead of a hyper 212
im not sure
lmao
and the gammax is also rly good
similar / better performance and its cheaper
over 212
Hyper 212 is stinky tbh
yea
i chose the gammax 400 pro over the hyper 212
because there is a BIG price gap
in SA
Possibly
between them
and gamamx400 pro > hyper 212
in thermals and price
it makes a weird whine when you ramp up the fans to full speed
212 is possibly the worst cooler you can buy at it’s price point
Gammax is over budget, I know 212 is stinky but its not needing a lot of cooling
gammax has better cooling perf than hyper 212
I know Im aware of that lol
only problem is that if you ramp up the fans to full speed it makes a weird whine
but its very silent if you dont
Tbf it is also a 10600k doing office work
setting up a fan curve will also fix thaat
NOOOOOO
this is how u get a stroke
Saving that
tbh i cant tell the difference between all these gammax coolers ._.
intel core duo
WHYYYYYYYY
nice
tbh with that bottleneck you could have just got a coffe panda cpu or whatever with the 3080
and that cooling
if the gpu doesnt overheat the moment it boots
This is a bottleneck but it’s a massive 50 foot wide funnel with a neck that’s only a millimeter long
i give u 2 bucks
That works too
another thing
CAD is weird
I dont think that a rog strix motherboard is needed for a 10600K
monopoly money
i just fixed cooler and storage
EVGA board 
slim boi office pc
No dGPU (at least no big one) if it can be avoided, basically
then hy a 10600K
The board is the cheapest or one of em for ITX
Good iGPU
if its gonna be an office pc isnt a 10600K a little overkill
the itx boards are crazy expensive
So dense in parts
Its for solitare
canada is confusing
Yeah it makes sense
Canada Monopoly money, boards are generally cheaper
and why 3600Mhz RAM
Yeah I don’t get that
its not like ur gonna crave every single bit of performance out of the cpu
2666Mhz should fit well for an office cpu (especially intel that doesnt benefit a lot from it) and is quite a bit cheaper
should save you some bucks
canada is weird
Bruh i live in Canada
😎
lol
Impressive
$560 CAD
in SA 30 series are never out of stock
And a Ryzen 5600x as well
said in a newegg discord server
there, changed the ram to something more cheaper
and, again, since its an office pc, a 120GB ssd for windows along with a 1TB HD could also be a decent idea
since it woudnt make a big difference if its a good HD
like a barracuda or toshiba's medium-end models
or even just a 512gb ssd
yeah
wait
when you put 2 sata on RAID mode
like
an hdd and an ssd working on raid mode
how will you know which one is windows gonna be installed in
or do you just dont?
you dont raid a hdd and a ssd
because you get bottlenecked to the slowest drive in the array
lol
i accidentally put it as intake instead of exhaust
and like
its right next to my cpu cooler
raid is typically used between two of the same types of drives
so the heat the cpu exhaust takes away is exhausted by the back fan
and it was as an intake
i switched it to exhaust as it should be
and god damn
almost 4 degrees difference on idle
jeez
and 2 degrees for my gpu
oh god
dont do drugs kids
does newegg charge shipping or does it depend on the product?
imagine canada
i think it depends
it doers actually
i got free shipping on my notherboard
Notherboard, huh?
Sounds pretty cool
Is that, like
A new generation motherboard?
motherboard part 2: electric boogaloo
Electric boogaloo implies the first one was bad and a sequel wasn’t wanted
Depends
As the meme goes
I think most items you can get for free, as long as you are willing to wait a few extra days/a week or two longer
As far as shipping goes, that is
I've been waiting for so long trynna snatch a 3080 to no avail
I am so tired of this smh
is this worth the extra $10 over this one
Possibly VRMS and RGB
Lemme send you an invite to something
b550 a pro has the same vrms as the gaming plus
what’s the highest cpu that can be on this mobo https://www.bestbuy.com/site/msi-b550-gaming-plus-socket-am4-usb-c-gen-2-amd-atx-gaming-motherboard-pcie-gen-4-black/6424047.p?skuId=6424047
ryzen 9 5950x
as long as you have another computer and a USB drive it will be fine
That’s right, forgot about that
the RGB on it is downright terrible though
RGB on mobos are tacky IMO
rgb is performance smh ppl be all like "i don't like rgb"
i dont like performance
like wth
i like tacos
im more of a burrito guy
so we both sus
yessir
🙂

Does it good Pc build for Gaming and Programming(Apps..etc)?
let us see
does it good?
ok
Please ping me because my old laptop sometimes just block.
zeored
@agile rivet first thing
since amd runs hot
Well, I gonna get hacked Windows 10.
don't get b450
no
get a b550
Can I know reason? I heard that b450 so famous?
dude get more fans and a better case
b450 very famous because usually cheap becuase last gen
amd runs very hot
bro chill
Soon meaning zen4?
I don’t think you know what you are talking about lol
You can get an operating system for basically free
stock cooler with r5 3600 is good enough
And AMD actually runs really cool
They don't
dude my mouth is on fire im dying
Even in stock coolers
just dont activate windows smh
CPU cooler looks odd
i have an amd
Which one?
dont get the stock cooler
ryzen 73600x i think
the external cooler*
Damn I remember old days with Intel.
Doesn’t exist
it does
Lol
intel used to be the champs
now amd catchin up fast
You mean Ryzen 5 3600x?
that obne
Both of which run cool on stock
and if hes using ryzen 7 3700x with stock cooler
i meant 3700
yea
mb
really cool on stock
So, I change only motherboard?
The Wraith Prism is a fantastic cooler
change motherboard and remove cpu cooler altogether
but get a better case because from the looks of it it only has 1 fan
King in
that money can go to a better gpu
So I stay with no cpu cooler?
2 mb
yea cpu comes with cpu cooler
Not exactly. CPU comes with really great cooler.
Oh that right, AMD stuff?
it works
so then
im using it rn
change b450 to b550
r u on a budget?
it has 2
So, I gonna remove Cpu cooler and replace CPU with better one like 5gen?
nono
wait zeored
no that cpu works fine
what is ur budget
send me budget i make parts list
@agile rivet
and must u only buy from newegg?
@fossil halo I have 1k usd send me in Dm's I gonna be offline.
amazon and best buy has good parts
ok for sure
I gonna buy from local place.
best buy?
wait then prices wont be accurate
cya gtg
aight then
bruhhhhhhhhhhh
ill send a 1k parts list lmaoo
mine
ye
r7 3700x running on stock cooler
gigabyte b550m ds3h
16gb 3200 rgb tforce or smth ram
||asus gt 710 2gb ddr5||
mine is r7 3700x 2060 16gb ram rgb and i forgot the rest
mine is rgb fans too
and seasonic s12III 650w psu
ima dip peace bro
k
what is the best but cheap white cable extensions, like 30 is my budget, if thats even possible, maybe 35, here is my parts list in case you need to know what cables i need https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yvLPYg
not really
i dont
i have school but i mean i dont talk when the teachers actually saying anything important
thx!

like getting vip
LMAOO i just have a pretty free day ig
i have bio in the mornign which is easy
spanish after that wchich is easy
then lunch then math
math kinda hard so i pay attention
but todays lesson was short
Imagine not taking Japanese smh
japanese is a beautiful language
Taking the hardest possible language class is hard
Annoying as hell to learn though
im more beautiful than japanese tbh
no
Gotta learn 3 different alphabets, a different way to Mark punctuation and questions and numbers, and then cultural significance of writing the number ‘4’ one way or another, etc
Because one of the ways you say ‘4’ (either as Yon or Shi’) means ‘death’ in Japanese
there's also an honor structure
So Shi (spelled し) is death and you aren’t allowed to say that
Sorry to interrupt, but does anyone know if the strix b550 vs x570 models have different power phases?
i forgot what it's called, but when you speak to different "ranks" of people (your boss, your friends, your parents) you have to learn a completely different verbiage
learning hirigana was fun, kanji was pain
I mean
you're in for a treat
What do you mean power phases?
4 in Chinese also sounds like death
Stfu
7 4 sounds like go die
That doesn’t count

as a native english speaker kanji is quite difficult
i learned how to read a bit so i could play puzzle & dragons on the japanese server without needing to wait for translated guides
based
the best reason to learn a new language
Based? Based on what?
listen sara i don't have much time
it's based on-
I’m learning so I can watch anime without waiting for it to be subbed lol
Power phase layout, specifically
Should have clarified
X570 generally has better VRMs and things like that, if that’s what you mean
Specifically X570 TUF
if we're talking a b550 strix better vrms are not going to make a real difference
gonna have good enough vrms to oc a 5950x regardless
I understand, just asking if the layout is different between the two models
i wanted to take chinese
but my parents are all like u have to take a foreign language u have to take spanish so u can focus more on MATH AND SCIENCE
Not generally, no.
Alright, thanks 🙏
X570 tends to be better though
im upgrading to a i9 10850k, will my rtx 3070 bottleneck it?
LMFAO
I'm definitely getting the "atx experience" on my b550
hecks naw
dunno what that's supposed to mean
ik
but
x570 is like
the lumberjack of am4
yk waht i mean
Name one x570 feature you actually use lol
isn't the only real difference like
i dont have one
more pcie lanes through the chipset
matx 😎
the subset of users who actually benefit from x570 is extremely niche
hence the chipset needing a fan
Basically. Gets you that second pcie gen 4 lane
gets you chipset bois
I got x570 because...it was the only atx board at the local shop 
very few users even have 1 gen 4 drive let alone 2
I do love my gen 4 drive
Depends on the board though
Talking about Strix boards
So it does have more power phases? Lol
was looking for a decent 2k monitor that wasint too expensive, is this a good one?
https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B08FF3F5HR/ref=crt_ewc_title_dp_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB
Yep. If 27 inch is your cup of tea, that’s pretty good
As long as the price is normal, I don’t know what the CAD to USD is atm
I like M27q, but it's currently way overpriced in cad
this is good but this should be like 450cad

wow battlefront is doing some naughty things to my cpu
wdym
if you want to see a program do naughty things to a cpu, p95 smallfft has you covered
Awesome! Thanks and yeah its about 450 plus tax for it.
The only thing is that it doesn't come with a display port would you have one you'd recommend? (it has a 1.2 dp)
that's about msrp of the card when it came out
that's super worth it rn
a little lower, it's not an awful deal
and yeah it's hard to get any card for its msrp right now lol
basically all modern gpus are selling for above msrp right now
that's below msrp
it's insane seeing used 5700xts going for 600
lol i bought my card for around 350
yeah
i think mine was like 365
but way better perf on gaming than 2060s
i bought mine for 770 seeing it sell for 1200 rn
what card?
vision 3080
and that's on r/hardwareswap not ebay
800
no just a weird bug
thats good
at least it doesnt say 2060
3dmark definitely knows what 3080 is
I purchased a https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/Z390-A-PRO as well as a https://www.amazon.com/Cooler-Master-MasterBox-Ventilation-Tempered/dp/B07PDT745F will they work together...?
Z390-A PRO gaming motherboard supports DDR4 4400(OC) MHz, PCI-E Gen3 x4 Turbo M.2 for NVMe based SSDs. Core Boost, 8+4 pin CPU power connector, Core Boost, DDR4 Boost
ee
no, the motherboard is too big for the case
your case only supports up to micro-atx, while your mobo is standard atx
lmfao no
they wont
^^
whats your budget for a case @heady sand
or mobo
you need to return either your case or your mobo, if you return the mobo you need one thats an M-ATX size
Thank you Sinthala, that was the issue! Just needed a bios update (Lucky I could kind of boot so I could flash the new one on 🙂 )
Hi could I get some help with choosing what PC to build I'll be using us currency and plan to have around 900 for now and will upgrade when I can
Hey everyone. Question. Which mobo is better. Asus prime z490-v atx or the msi z490-a pro atx?
id go to msi
what about it
Since there aren't any 3070s or 3080 available without going way over MSRP, does anyone know a bit about the HP Omen 30L? I can order those with either a 3070 or 3080 in it and receive it within the next week or so. I planned to just order base specs, like i5 and 8 gb memory and just swap those out with the parts I currently have, an i9 and 32 gb of memory.
What exactly do you have?
I heard heating is an issue with the i9 in it with the heat sink and fan combo, but i can't find that issue with the liquid cooling that comes with it now? Also, heard issues with the ability to upgrade the ram, although not sure how much that would impact/bug me
side note, only shows 3070 as the max gpu option on my end
yea, on HP website, the 3070 is the only one available strangely enough
but on amazon, which i have to double check, i believe both 3070 and 3080 are available there
What exactly do you have that can be swapped in?
i currently have i9-10900k
rest of the parts, i was waiting to get a hold of a 3070 or 3080 before buying at microcenter
but not an issue to swing by for a few memory and storage upgrades
side note, 3070 starts at 760$ scalped
yea, pretty brutal, just been monitoring stock alerts for now
so it's still an option to just buy a 3070, and just go new for everything else, prebuilts like to compromise on motherboards, which is sad
I'll dm you another stock discord
thanks a lot man
Do not buy the HP OMEN
the intention is just to get a 3070, but i do understand where you are coming from
Whats a good ATX case?
td500 mesh, lian li lancool ii mesh, corsair 4000d
Phanteks P500A best case
or the p500a yea
Y’all think if I ask Asus to update my MB for Ryzen 5000 will they?
Why not just do yourself it's simple I'd the mobo has a flashback feature
i count 7 (including 1 cpu fan header) but i could be wrong
Welcome to the MSI Global official site. We are the top Gaming gear provider.
so... i can use 6 fans i bought?
1x 4-pin water-pump fan connector
6x 4-pin system fan connectors
5
1 header is for the CPU
OH no
I read wrong
so.. 5 fans
Yes, 6 fans
oh
