Ok

gleaming quartz
#

if it doesnt change, try to boot into winRE

oak jay
#

WinRE?

gleaming quartz
#

and then from there either go into safe mode or do an automatic repair

#

windows recovery environment

oak jay
#

How do I boot to winre?

#

And should I unplug it

#

I tried to turn it off earlier

#

Didn’t work

gleaming quartz
#

you either have to spam the f8 key or turn your computer on and off 3 times

oak jay
#

Hmm

#

Ok so in a few mins I unplug it?

gleaming quartz
#

DONT unplug it though

oak jay
#

Oh

gleaming quartz
#

thats like the worst idea possible

oak jay
#

I tried the power button like an hour ago

gleaming quartz
#

it kills your ram

oak jay
#

Didn’t work

#

Oh

#

Hold power button?

gleaming quartz
#

yeah

oak jay
#

Ah ok

gleaming quartz
#

for 10 seconds

oak jay
#

Should I do it now?

#

Ok

gleaming quartz
#

just wait a little bit

oak jay
#

Them mash f8 when it starts?

gleaming quartz
#

or if that doesnt work, see if it boots normally

oak jay
#

Ok

gleaming quartz
#

if it doesnt, do the same thing 2 more times

oak jay
#

It’s a brand new system so it should have too many updates

#

Ok I’m gonna wait another like 5 mins then I’ll do it

#

The fans are blowing full blast atm because the fan control software isn’t started

gleaming quartz
#

it should be controlled from the bios...?

oak jay
#

For some reason it isn’t

#

The fans are half on the nzxt software and half on the dragon center

#

I’m gonna switch them all to the nzxt software soon

#

Ok I’m going to shut to down

#

Should I try just short pressing the button to see if it works?

#

Ok I shut it down with the long press

gleaming quartz
#

good

#

now try booting it back onto the drive with the OS

oak jay
#

So boot normally?

gleaming quartz
#

yeah

oak jay
#

No f8?

#

Ok

gleaming quartz
#

just to see if it fixes it

oak jay
#

Ok

gleaming quartz
#

which i highly doubt it will

oak jay
#

Ok

#

It’s gone past 6 now

#

Already at 100

#

Damn

#

Oh seemed to work

#

Restarting now

#

Ok now it she’s the blue update screen

#

Ok that seemed to work

#

Restarting again lmao

gleaming quartz
#

alright

oak jay
#

Ok it booted to login screen

#

Thanks for the help

gleaming quartz
#

yeah np

oak jay
fossil halo
#

um

#

most cases have this light that flashes i think when ur drive is being used

oak jay
#

Ooh

fossil halo
#

i think that is what that is

#

not sure tho

zealous edge
#

It is\

fossil halo
#

like my case has a separate led for that

zealous edge
#

Did you connect a drive Led cable into the bottom right of ur mobo?

fossil halo
#

u can just unplug it in the motherboard tho

#

yea

#

drive led

oak jay
#

Ah yeah makes sense

#

What is it meant for?

fossil halo
#

its like when ur drive is reading/writing or smth idk

zealous edge
#

So you know if ur drive in in use, yes

oak jay
#

Hmm

fossil halo
#

i think its a sort of troubleshooting method?

zealous edge
#

It really doesn't help, nor does it matter

fossil halo
#

yea

#

idk why its there honestly

zealous edge
#

You have task manager

oak jay
#

Yeah

fossil halo
#

thats what mine looks like

#

my power button doesnt have a light

#

idk if i did all the wiring correctly but

#

power button makes pc no on

#

and if u press pwer button one more time it make pc on

#

so that is good

#

and u can manually shut down by press and hold

#

power button

formal cosmos
#

guys

#

i

#

need

#

help

#

now

fossil halo
#

waht

fossil halo
#

yes

formal cosmos

can you send me the drivers update for that gpu

#

please

fossil halo
#

get this software

#

called geforce experience

viral ore
#

type "nvidia drivers" in google

fossil halo
#

it will auto detect ur gpu

viral ore
#

go from there

fossil halo
#

for the future

#

download from nvidia

#

yea

#

or use that

#

but also get geforece experience imo

#

it tells u when a new driver is released

sick heart
#

i wonder if the 9800 has any new drivers?

fossil halo
#

9800?

earnest olive
#

drivers aren't specific to a model of card

fossil halo
#

^^^

#

It's the chipset that matters

little osprey
#

@formal cosmos just install nvidia experience or download drivers from geforce com . not from manufacturer site couse mostly theyre not.up to date

formal cosmos
#

i’m done

#

i’m just trying to get mystic light now

#

which is confusing

little osprey
#

@formal cosmos are your setup complated ?

formal cosmos
#

huh?

#

i finished the pc

#

i’m just downloading all drivers and stuff

little osprey
#

good

#

you just can check temperatures later just in case

formal cosmos
#

bad picture

#

but my fans are getting delivered today

#

my fans are getting here in a couple of minutes

fast monolith
little osprey
#

nice job @formal cosmos

formal cosmos
#

thank you

little osprey
formal cosmos
#

it boots up and everything, mystic light is the last thing i need and then i can game

fast monolith
little osprey
#

yes but poor drivers and crashing uh

stoic island
#

not that prevalent now

#

@fast monolith why 2 kits of 2x8 of 3200c16?

tender peak
#

I assume to take advantage of multi channel architecture.

stoic island
#

On Ryzen

#

@tender peak also, it's just dual channel on consumer boards, it ain't quad channel, but stuffing more ranks per channel, like 2x16 instead of 2x8, does a bit more perf, I'd rather get 2x16gb of 3600c16 ram for like the same price

tender peak
#

Didn't look at their build sheet tbh.

stoic island
#

Might as well get 2x16 of 3600c16

#

oh fun

#

ballistix kit went oos

fossil halo
#

what is amg gpu

#

did he mean amd?

fast monolith
#

whats c6?

#

16*

stoic island
#

cas latency 16

fossil halo
#

cl16 is latency

fast monolith
#

is it bad?

fossil halo
#

lower the better

#

its like ping

gusty abyss
#

c16 is good

fossil halo
#

yea

stoic island
fossil halo
#

cl18 is worse basically

fast monolith
#

good or bad?

stoic island
#

depends

#

3600c16 > 3200c16

fossil halo
#

high cl#=bad

stoic island
#

3600c18 = 3200c16

fossil halo
#

ig

#

why is ram so expensive now

gusty abyss
#

because everything is

severe axle
fast monolith
#

i know speeds but i dont know what cas is

tender peak
#

Because people are buying it up like it was going out of style.

fossil halo
#

it used to be like 70$ for 2x8 3600mhz

#

75$ for rgb on that

stoic island
#

cas latency is latency

fast monolith
#

well i like the way it looks and i dont need 3600

stoic island
#

frequency is frequency

#

you gain somewhere around 5% performance gain on Ryzen with 3600c16 instead of 3200c16

fast monolith
#

5 percent

stoic island
#

well, 3rd gen and beyond

fossil halo
#

yea

stoic island
#

and b550 board means 3rd gen and beyond

fossil halo
#

i have 3200 kekw

gusty abyss
#

higher mhz is nice but if you're at least 3000 you don't really have anything big to complain about

fossil halo
#

but it has rgb

#

so worth it

stoic island
#

On Ryzen you gain performance since IF runs 1:1 to ram freq for best perf

fast monolith
#

rn i have 2400 mhz

#

well i dont have my brother does

stoic island
#

and 1800mhz IF performs better than 1600mhz IF

fast monolith
#

im helping him upgrade

stoic island
#

what CPU

fast monolith
#

5 3600

stoic island
#

yea you REALLY should get better ram

fast monolith
#

yeah

#

he has a 1050 ti

#

1 fan so its not overclockable or it crashes in 5 minutes

stoic island
#

prob just bad silicon

#

1050ti pretty cool

fast monolith
#

idk but its pretty old

#

like 5-6 years

#

maybe even 7

#

how is the mobo?

#

and cooler

stoic island
#

1050ti released oct 2016 soooo

#

5 years max

#

I'd rather get a freezer ii when it comes back in stock

fast monolith
#

i remember around 2014-2016 idk but he needs an upgrade

fossil halo
#

my ram isnt evben running at 3200mhz

fast monolith
#

i dont know about that aio

stoic island
#

also, lancool ii mesh is really expensive rn

fossil halo
#

mr111

stoic island
#

for some reason

fossil halo
#

how i make ram speed

fast monolith
#

its for the future not right now

fossil halo
fast monolith
#

bios

stoic island
#

@fossil halo go check cpuz

#

task manager wacky

fossil halo
#

i paid for 3200 mhz

#

ok

#
#

is this the right download

stoic island
#

ye

fossil halo
#

should i get the gigabyte version

#

since i have a gigabyte board

fast monolith
#

i think im gonna stick with the aio i got rn because it has a fan controller on the aio

#

and i have 5 fan headers i belive

#

believe*

fossil halo
#

just get a hub

#

i have a fan hub

fast monolith
#

well im gonna have to spend more money

fossil halo
#

@stoic island

#

how do i fix this

stoic island
#

Go into bios and enable xmp

fossil halo
#

how to do that

#

can u show me pls

stoic island
#

@fast monolith orr don't go aio

fast monolith
#

i think youtube is free

stoic island
#

what motherboard @fossil halo

fossil halo
#

B550m ds3h ac from gigabyte

stoic island
fast monolith
#

whats bad about the aio

stoic island
#

It's just a bit lower end in terms of aio performance, might as well get Noctua quality :P

hollow grail
#

oh HELL YES

#

nuc with a 2060 in it

fossil halo
#

Lili ma am

#

Pls help

hollow grail
#

with

stoic island
#

lol

fossil halo
#

What i do now

stoic island
#

@hollow grail need a 3060 tho

hollow grail
#

this is the dream media server right here

fossil halo
#

To make ram fazt

hollow grail
#

can chew through 4k encodes like no ones business

fossil halo
#

What i click

stoic island
#

find xmp

hollow grail
#

and the best part is it doesnt draw much power at all

#

its literally xmp

fossil halo
#

Where is that usually

stoic island
#

ram

#

yes

fossil halo
#

K I pressed that

stoic island
#

save and restart

fossil halo
#

Should I boot into windoes

#

K

ripe wedge
#

go into bios first

fossil halo
#

Aight let's see

ripe wedge
#

check and make sure it enabled

fossil halo
#

Why don't they enable it on default smh

hollow grail
#

and @stoic island that much desktop power at 150w tdp is INSANE

stoic island
#

wait

hollow grail
#

clustering these is gonna revolutionize homelabs

stoic island
#

@hollow grail 2060 ko or 2060 regular die?

odd knoll
#

can someone help setting up the 3 fans from spec delta to asus prime 360m-a mobo? it was a recommended build from newegg, rgb works but nowhere to connect 3x3-pin fan connectors??

hollow grail
#

2060 regular

stoic island
#

damn

#

2060 ko would be great

hollow grail
#

still insane

#

its laptop parts

fast monolith
#

well what is a good performance aio no rgb 360

hollow grail
#

so

little osprey
#

Yo need help

hollow grail
stoic island
#

@fast monolith why aio

#

Freezer ii but out of stock

ripe wedge
odd knoll
#

ya jake? thought i may 😦 any idea wht ones?

fossil halo
#

@stoic island

#

it still didnt do

#

oh hi daddy lazar

stoic island
#

Yes it did

ripe wedge
fossil halo
#

no it didnt its still slow

stoic island
#

Transfer speed on Double Data Rate ram is twice the frequency

#

1600mhz = 3200MT/s

fossil halo
#

wait really?

stoic island
#

aka the 3200 "mhz" you wanted

fossil halo
#

oh ok

#

aight thanks

fossil halo
#

aight

#

thanks so much

#

mr111

stoic island
#

You're welcome

ripe wedge
#

wait

#

actually

stoic island
#

weird

ripe wedge
stoic island
#

it's normal

#

first one gets PWM

ripe wedge
#

means master fan is the one controlling fan speed

#

for the others?

stoic island
#

yea

#

if you're using the same fans, it's fine

ripe wedge
#

ah ok then yeah its good @odd knoll

odd knoll
#

saweet!!! so much appreciated!! thanks guys.. saved me a ton of headaches!! cheers!

ripe wedge
#

np

fossil halo
#

what is a normal cpuz score for a r7 3700x

#

i got 523 single core and 5519 multi core is that good

ripe wedge
#

so yeah ur good

fossil halo
#

Is urs oc'd

ripe wedge
#

I dont have a 3700x

#

thats just the one on cpuz

gusty abyss
#

I get 517/5458

#

I have done basically no overclocking

fossil halo
#

oh

#

aight so we chillin

Hello, I am interested in purchasing a laptop that I can use for day-trading. I priced one out at a day-trading computer company for about $2900 which includes the RTX 2060, Samsung 970 EVO+ 1,000GB PCI-E SSD - 3500MB/S, 32GB 2666MHz DDR4, Intel Core I7 10875H - 8 Cores, 16 Threads - (5.10 GHz Turbo), 17.3 inch monitor, and ability with docking station to connect 6 monitors...it seems I can get something similar from newegg at a lower price, but want to ensure that I can connect 6 monitors and can be used for day trading. Any recommendations?

#

not sure if this is the right chat group, i was told by newegg chat to come here

wanton cliff
#

Can you give the Newegg link please?

tame blade
#

i am browsing the site now, but want to ensure I am comparing apples to apples, not sure how to check if the laptop will allow up to 6 monitors connected

#

thanks for the response

wanton cliff
#

I want to check too

#

That’s why I want the link

#

To the laptop in question that you are talking about

wanton cliff
#

It’s a good laptop

#

But

#

I do not believe you can connect 6 monitors to it, unless you are using USB for all of them, which I do not recommend

tame blade
#

how do I find out how many monitors it will connect to?

severe axle
#

it looks like 2 from images

wanton cliff
#

Your best bet for a setup with more than 4 monitors is a PC with 2 or more graphics cards

severe axle
#

it shows type c with displayport and an hdmi port

wanton cliff
#

Moreover, 6 monitors is a lot of pixels for a 2060, even if you aren’t gaming

wanton cliff
#

Asus makes great laptops but they aren’t some kind of massively amazing workstations

tame blade
#

so recommend a better video card for 6 monitors? The day trading company i priced out the laptop stated I could connect 6 monitors

#

withi the 2060

wanton cliff
#

What exactly is your budget?

#

Also the problem here lies in the fact that most video cards can’t output more than 4 display signals

tame blade
#

i am willing to spend up to 3k, but want a laptop, since I travel, but at the same time don't want to overpay

wanton cliff
#

That’s gonna be hard.

#

Perhaps a Mini-ITX PC?

tame blade
#

hmmm, interesting, so the day trading companies that customize them are probably not correct in the number of monitors? I do have to use a docking station to add in the extra three

wanton cliff
#

Ah

#

Don’t know how those work

dim star
#

I’m sure that I’m in the wrong chat group but since gpu price are through the roof. But the question is is it better to buy a prebuilt for $800-$1500 for 1080p/1440p gaming or build it myself. I do have a ryzen 5 3600x and a msi 570x motherboard and that’s all. If I made any sense. What build would be pretty good and what gpu would y’all recommend that a reasonable price? ( I know how bad that sounds)

wanton cliff
#

Everyone here will say to build a new one

ripe wedge
#

gpus are hard to get rn

#

so a prebuilt is understandable

tame blade
#

ok, which I figured since I spent time with the company yesterday asking and they were esssentially building it for me but probably at a premium, can i build a laptop at newegg?

ripe wedge
#

build a laptop?

#

lol

#

like a custom laptop config?

#

I would recommend someone like Maingear for a custom laptop

wanton cliff
#

I would just get a Mini-ITX PC tbh

#

Much more modularity

tame blade
#

yes, custom laptop config, i think I know enough about the specs I want, just want to make sure that I can connect 6 monitors with a docking station, came out to about 2900 at the company, if that is a good price, will go with it, but just want to ensure I am not overpaying big time

ripe wedge
#

id wait for a rtx 3000 series laptop to come out tho

tame blade
#

when would that be?

dim star
wanton cliff
#

For that you could get a 3060 or 3060Ti

#

Finding one will take a while but is easy enough on it’s own

#

If you want I can send you the link to a monitoring bot

tame blade
#

sure thanks much!

wanton cliff
#

Sorry, I was talking to the other guy

#

As for you

tame blade
#

oh ok

wanton cliff
#

I don’t deal with laptops or day trading enough to know what you might need or be able to get

dim star
#

Sure! Thank you! Then it should be downhill once I get the gpu

wanton cliff
#

Yep

earnest olive
#

6 monitors to a laptop?

#

i don't know if there are any laptops that have 6 display outs

tame blade
#

it would be with a docking station

#

just want to make sure that the video card can support it

wanton cliff
wanton cliff
ripe wedge
earnest olive
#

my desktop 3080 doesn't support 6 monitors lol

wanton cliff
#

2 GPUs?

earnest olive
#

yeah

wanton cliff
#

Pretty sure RDNA2 cards have 5 outputs

earnest olive
#

I don't know anything about laptop docking stations though

ripe wedge
#

I have 3 dp ports and 3 hdmi ports but can only use 4 at a given time

wanton cliff
#

What about an iGPU?

#

A card with 4 outputs + an iGPU would total 6 monitors

#

On most motherboards, that is

ripe wedge
#

maybe. my $300 mobo only has a single hdmi

#

so would be a total of 5 for me

wanton cliff
#

My $100 B450 had an HDMI, a DP, and a Type-C

#

That’s Asus btw

#

Can a motherboard even support more than 1 output from an iGPU or are the other outputs just there for options?

ripe wedge
#

o yeah I have a type c also

#

im not entirely sure

wanton cliff
#

Tbf you would also need basically a 3090 for the sheer amount of pixels on the screen

#

Assuming it’s 1080p

#

Lemme count actually

#

That’s 12 million pixels

#

22 million if they are all 1440p

#

55 million for 4K

#

Assuming I did my math right on that last one

#

That’s kind of absurd

#

Damn, nothing more to do

#

Gotta wait now

earnest olive
#

i know that intel igpu supports multiple monitors if the board does

#

pretty sure ryzen does too

#

let me check

#

yeah it does

#

i wish that amd's spec sheet was as detailed as intel's

wanton cliff
#

Alright, nice

#

Still a laptop tho and idk how “docks” work

#

Nor the resolution of these screens

#

Also, I’m forgetting: how many hertz do current generation GPUs typically run at?

earnest olive
#

intel uhd 630 can do 144hz

wanton cliff
#

Talking about actual clock speeds on dGPUs

earnest olive
#

oh

#

when you said hertz i thought you meant monitor

wanton cliff
#

Yeah it’s all confusing

earnest olive
#

my 3080 was power throttling to 1800mhz at stock

#

i undervolted it and now it does 1905mhz stable

wanton cliff
#

That’s pretty good

#

Considering the amount of cores too

earnest olive
#

it can go over 2ghz for a bit before power throttling

wanton cliff
#

That’s damn good

earnest olive
#

because i have a 2x8 pin model with a 350W power limit

#

3x8 pin models with 450W power limits can hold 2ghz stable i think

wanton cliff
#

Which card do you have?

earnest olive
#

RDNA2 clocks quite a bit higher than ampere though

#

vision oc

wanton cliff
#

I’ve heard good things about that card

#

Does a few million more calculations impact performance that much?

earnest olive
#

the lower power limit doesn't bother me at all

#

doesn't affect gaming performance much

#

mostly benchmarks

#

and i was planning on undervolting to begin with for low noise

viral ore
#

hwbot points

wanton cliff
#

True

earnest olive
#

looks great in my white build

#

i'm not lacking in hwbot points 😛

#

i haven't even benched my 3080 yet

wanton cliff
#

I want a good card to do VR with because my 5700XT isn’t cutting it and I’m not sure which 3080 to get. Don’t want to get a crap card like Zotac or PNY but I also don’t want to spend too much or take up too much power.

earnest olive
#

the answer to which 3080 to buy is.. whichever is in stock

wanton cliff
#

Getting one isn’t the question

#

I can do that easily

#

The question is which one to get

earnest olive
#

might as well pick based on looks none of them perform too much better or worse than the others

#

you can pay the strix tax if you want it pushed to the max

#

but it's not that significant

wanton cliff
#

I want some RGB on mine because I want do do a sort of flag with it (which I’m doing with my current system)

#

But RGB is expensive

#

A FTW3 might be good

earnest olive
#

i can't get past the clown lips on it

wanton cliff
#

As long as it’s aRGB I’m happy

earnest olive
#

well the clown lips are not

wanton cliff
#

It’s gonna be bright pink either way, which doesn’t make it look that much like clown lips

#

And it would be complemented well by the blue and white of my TridentZ and Wraith Prism

earnest olive
#

my friend thinks he needs to upgrade his 9900K for 4K gaming

wanton cliff
#

Lol

#

I would kill for a 9900k tbh

#

What GPU does he have?

earnest olive
#

3090

wanton cliff
earnest olive
#

me watching my 3080 barely keep up with my ryzen 5 3600x at 1440p

wanton cliff
#

I got a 3800x so I’m not too worried

#

Thing is a 5700xt just doesn’t cut if for VR

earnest olive
#

he said linus claimed a 10900k bottlenecks at 4k?

#

i'm confused

#

lmao

wanton cliff
#

Especially VRChat where you have characters with such high poly counts it would make your eyes bleed

earnest olive
#

i have a hard time believing linus said that

wanton cliff
#

Same

#

Where’d you get the 02 emote from?

earnest olive
#

i'll dm you server link

wanton cliff
#

Thanks

viral ore
#

i would run a 3090 with a 10400f for 4k60 smh

wanton cliff
#

Totally doable

wow

#

#

@viral ore yeah but for some reason he thinks he needs to upgrade from 9900K to 5950X

#

Hi guys! I looking for a computer case for my new desktop, I have a rtx3090, I'm not sure is it will fit into the NZXT H710 or not? Any idea?

cyan stone
earnest olive
#

not every 3090 is the same size

#

@cyan stone he works minimum wage

cyan stone
#

Ah, definitely not then lol

hollow grail
#

me ignoring that one vm that uses 40gb of ram for no reason with 6 months uptime to host a new service

earnest olive
#

and it's going to be literally 0% performance increase

#

he plays LEAGUE OF LEGENDS

cyan stone
#

xD

#

Nice

earnest olive
#

he wants to upgrade his 9900K to a 5950X because he's worried it's going to bottleneck his 3090 in LEAGUE OF LEGENDS

cyan stone
#

I’m pretty sure his monitor is the bottleneck there

#

Lol

earnest olive
#

league doesn't react nicely to fps above 300 anyways

#

the engine starts doing weird stuff

cyan stone
#

Introduce him to Microsoft flight sim

#

It’ll do some nasty things to your GPU, or mine at least

#

Mere mortal 2070S cannot contend

earnest olive
#

yeah that's the problem

#

he is looking at flight sim benchmarks to guide his upgrade

#

for league

cyan stone
#

smh

#

quick question on asus motherboards is it possible to check bios like just from the box

cold wind
#

Anyone know where to get the lian li uni 120 fans at msrp? Is that possible? I'm not paying $50 + per fan when I need 9 of them.

#

Or is there a similar fan on the market?

fossil halo
#

dont think so\

#

there are nice looking rgb fans for far less than that

cold wind
#

Gotcha, any with the similar rgb that illuminates around the exterior like the lian li uni?

fossil halo
#

yea

#

nzxt aer rgb 2

#

not sure if they are gooe

#

tho

#

like the 120 mm does 52 cfm

#

idk if thats good

cold wind
#

Cool, let me search for that one and check on it

fossil halo
#

im assuming since 9 fans o11?

fossil halo
#

that is cheaper but also less airflow

#

and looks bruh

earnest olive
#

the aer rgb is $40 each

#

not much cheaper

fossil halo
#

no its like

#

27

earnest olive
#

CFM is also not the end all be all of fan performance

#

currently $40 on newegg

#

lol

fossil halo
#

thats the 140 tho

deft geyser
#

Okay so I'm taking a dell board out of the sff case and putting it in a mid tower and I cant get the board out of the case. Everything is removed from the board, screws etc. But theres still alot if resistance. What do?

cold wind
#

Yeah, I'm purchasing the 011 dynamic mid tower white. But want to make sure I can find the fans I like to match takes up to 9 120mm

fossil halo
#

oh im smallest brain

#

they are out of stock on the nzxt website

earnest olive
#

if you want cheap fans that have argb rings on the outside

#

cougar vortex is the cheapest option

fossil halo
#

i think there are some sus amazon brands

#

idk

earnest olive
#

this exists i guess

#

not familiar with the brand

cold wind
#

Sweet guys, thanks for the input.. I'll look into all of them.

earnest olive
#

CFM is really not 100% indicative of performance though

#

judging a fan purely by CFM is like judging a CPU purely by clock speed

fossil halo
#

ig

earnest olive
#

and then you get this

#

🙂

fossil halo
#

but like isnt cfm one of the biggest factors

#

cfm noise

earnest olive
#

you're better off looking for independent reviews

#

static pressure is a thing

#

and noise

fossil halo
#

yea

#

i mean really ig if u have a headset the fans have to be damn loud by todays standards to hear them

earnest olive
#

if you judged it off of cfm alone then some industrial fans that would make you go deaf would be the best fans

hollow grail
#

lol

earnest olive
#

i have open backed headphones

hollow grail
#

short rack stuff looks so cute

earnest olive
#

it doesn't have to be very loud for me to be able to hear it

#

smol bois supposed to go in smol cabinet

#

fossil halo
#

idk i have some random headset i assumed that that is a fair benchmark

#

some music headset

#

it has anc but i just use it in the passive mode bc im too lazy to charge them like evryday

#

wow

you sound

#

like

an id-cooling fanboy

earnest olive

it's pink

that is true

are you even a real gamer if you don't have pink case, pink fans, pink aio, and pink rgb?

he is going to have a 3060 non ti just put that in as a place holder

#

@muted patio what do you think ^

#

@stoic island what do you think ^

cyan canopy
#

Went to go reinstall windows on my ssd now it doesn't show it as a boot

frozen junco
#

are you in bois

#

bios

cyan canopy
#

Yes

frozen junco
#

and it is not showing up

cyan canopy
#

It shows up as storage but not a bootable device

#

When I originally installed windows 3 days ago it showed up

frozen junco
#

can you force it to boot onto it

#

why did you reinstall windows in the first place

cyan canopy
#

Had it on my hdd instead of my ssd

#

Won't let me force boot it. Doesnt give the option to select it

frozen junco
#

is there anything on the ssd

cyan canopy
#

Windows tried to install itself on it but then goes into an endless loop since it can't boot up

#

I can erase all files again

frozen junco
#

do you have a back up

#

if you are doing that i would use a cloning tool next time

cyan canopy
#

I have one for my hdd nothing on the ssd since I wasnt doing anything with it yet

#

Should I just clone it instead now?

frozen junco
#

are you going to have everyting on the ssd

cyan canopy
#

Yes, and then I plan on buying a 2.5 ssd for storage instead if the hdd

#

Well os on the m2 ssd and all games saved to a 2.5 ssd

frozen junco
#

for you I would just reinstall windows then transfer what you want over

cyan canopy
#

If it won't boot how can I finish the windows install?

blazing aurora
frozen junco
#

make a windows installtion tool with you hdd on a thumb drive. then unplug your hdd and have it boot onto the thum drive. then intstall windows onto your ssd. windows is free if you dont care about wall paper or you can get a 12 buck 10 pro oem

Already

#

Just finished the pc 3 days ago so still have everything to download and thats what I have been trying to install from

frozen junco
#

so does you ssd work in terms of you can boot off of it

cyan canopy
#

When I first went to starr to pc after completely it is as able to boot off of the ssd, now its not an option to boot from

#

Completing*

frozen junco
#

have it boot to the install media

cyan canopy
#

Currently I am in that

frozen junco
#

then go to the oage and press repair

#

not install

#

try doing the last backup point

So I am install a clean install of windows 10 on my m2 ssd it goes through the install process but won't finish and boot the system to complete it

Touching back on last nights topic, my temps idling today kept going up and down, lowest at ~53, highest all the way up to ~86. I went into BIOS and turned off Core Performance Boost, and now I’m consistently around the 43-47 mark idle. I guess that was my problem

Hello all! Is there someone I can speak to for recommendations on what to buy for 3D renders?

weary galleon
#

wow thats a long link

#

anyways anyone want a GTX2050Ti?

stoic island
weary galleon
#

thank you

stoic island
#

yw

little osprey
weary galleon
#

it says 4gb vram I wonder if its a 1050TI

#

probably not though

#

wouldnt be making much profit

fossil halo
#

is this a good hdd

lost scroll
#

I have a render queue manager I can connect via ad hoc, but I just need help figuring out hat I need to buy. I won't be using the machine for anything but redbering

stoic island
#

Hm, which exact CPU?

gusty abyss
#

I wish the wraith prism were a better cooler because I like its rgb setup

earnest olive
#

barebones pc with nothing but a processor? so... a processor?

stoic island
#

@earnest olive I'm thinking like they want barebones as in low-priority

#

like random throw on gpu, mobo, ram, etc

earnest olive
#

wraith prism is more than sufficient for a 3700x and does ok on a 3800x if you don't mind noise, not really enough for 3900x though

#

i was surprised by how quiet the prism is on an overclocked 3700x

gusty abyss
#

my 3700x would get just a little hotter than I wanted under extended stress

earnest olive
#

what voltage?

gusty abyss
#

whatever's default on an asus tuf x570, I haven't done any cpu overclocking

earnest olive
#

i did 4.2ghz all core 1.262v and it never went above 85.1C in 8 hours of prime95 small ffts avx

#

perfectly fine temp

#

and that was on the low noise setting

#

there's a hardware switch on it that unlocks higher rpm at the cost of higher noise

stoic island
#

@gusty abyss do remember CPU on stock, no manual clock, will downclock and boost themselves to whatever they want to :P

gusty abyss
#

true

stoic island
#

so if you want to see 70c, but the CPU wants to see 80c, it might just boost higher than you want

earnest olive
#

stock runs just as hot as a manual overclock

gusty abyss
#

I guess I have whatever PBO sets lol

earnest olive
#

PBO can run hotter than manual oc

#

especially if you don't try to push the voltage to maximum possible

#

i did a different 3700X build that was 4ghz 1.1V and that thing ran super cool

gusty abyss
#

nice

earnest olive
#

70C in prime95 small ffts with like 40% fan speed

#

not stock cooler though

#

are you using the stock paste?

#

you might get better temps out of replacing the thermal paste with something better

#

cooler itself is good enough

gusty abyss
#

I was, I've since switched to an aio lol

earnest olive
#

yeah the stock paste bottlenecks the prism a bit

#

i used arctic mx-4

#

runs quiet and cool

gusty abyss
#

I got some silver 5 I think

earnest olive
#

definitely not on the level of an aio though

gusty abyss
#

that I use now

earnest olive
#

but it do be free tho

gusty abyss
#

free paste do be free

lost scroll
#

Lots of clashing convos, lol, but yeah, basically I want to install one software program on storage so I can network them together and use the hyperthread setting to get 24 threads running to hopefully cut my render times in a quarter. I'll use my gaming laptop to build the scene, then send it to the render queu where my laptop and this suoerbprocessor will work together to render scenes way faster

earnest olive
#

being able to sell the prism for like $30 when you go aftermarket is nice

fossil halo
#

im running off a prism

#

btw what is the best free app to check cpu and gpu temps

earnest olive
#

yeah i've done 2 or 3 3700x builds that just used the prism i don't remember

#

hwinfo

for a gigabyte board

is it safe

if it wasn't why would everyone recommend it

Hey does anyone know of some good skinny monitors, I want to gift one to my mom for checking her emails at her rig

fossil halo

nvm dumb question

i've done 5 3700x builds, 3 with the prism

#

2 liquid cooled

#

mm yes 240hz emails

#

mom is an epic gamer

fossil halo
#

yea LMAO

#

this seems to be

#

very very thin

#

and rather good

#

for

#

checking emails

#

yo i low key want this

#

oh

#

its a lcd tho

earnest olive
#

my second monitor is thicc

rocky ocean
#

May I ask

Can we go thinner

earnest olive

Hmmm

yea LMAO

i didn't even know monitors this thin existed

why do you need such a thin monitor anyways

rocky ocean
#

Wait no like length wise

fossil halo
#

my friend has a big ass tv that is that thin

#

oh

earnest olive
#

...what

rocky ocean
#

I should have specified more

earnest olive
#

thin length wise

fossil halo
#

then just put a monitor vertical LMAO

rocky ocean
#

You can do that

fossil halo
#

just get a vesa stand that can turn

rocky ocean
#

Sweet

#

The more you know

fossil halo
#

this thing

#

bit expensive i think

#

i mean from what i thought it would cost

earnest olive
#

yeah you can mount whatever normal monitor to that and then just change display orientation in windows

fossil halo
#

mhm

#

or i mean

#

u can just get a standard thing and turn the mount

#

like

earnest olive
fossil halo
#

screw and unscrew

#

yea that thing

#

i used to use a veritcal montor

rocky ocean
#

I’m confused on how I would make the normal monitor go sideways

earnest olive

it's in windows settings

crystal solstice
#

yo

#

can someone who is good at building pcs

#

help me with a good build

#

my friend needs a good pc build and i aint the best at picking parts for a pC

fossil halo
#

budget?

crystal solstice
#

1600

fossil halo
#

with or without tax

#

wifi?

#

rgb?

#

how much storage?

crystal solstice
#

around 1550 dollars without tax

#

watever will fit the price range

#

RGB isnt that important

fossil halo
#

ok

crystal solstice
#

he just needs a pc that has good air flow and can run certain games

fossil halo
#

so no wifi is ok

crystal solstice
#

like APEX

#

lmfao

#

it needs a wifi card

#

LOL

fossil halo
#

oh ok

#

so no easy access to ethernet

#

k thats ok

crystal solstice
#

he doesnt use ethernet

fossil halo
#

ill try to make something

crystal solstice
#

aight man ty

#

take ur time broski

#

🙂

#

oh shoot forgot to say

#

can u try to include the monitor in the 1600 budget

#

the monitor is 144hz and 1ms

#

around 25 inches or 24 inches

stoic island
#

yes

crystal solstice
#

i realise that the budget is gonna be tight with the monitor

stoic island
#

not if 1080p

#

@crystal solstice 27in out of the question?

crystal solstice
#

uh idk if 27 inches is necessary

stoic island
#

I can prob fit a 10600k+3070 build with a 1440p170hz monitor

#

and 1440p looks nice on 27in

crystal solstice
#

hmm

#

wats the price with the 170hz monit

stoic island
#

if it's space constraint

crystal solstice
#

for the*

stoic island
#

330$

crystal solstice
#

that would make the build $1270 budget

crystal solstice
#

can u make it work?

stoic island
#

yes

crystal solstice
#

aight man do what u can

#

thanks

stoic island
#

Don't doubt me >:D

crystal solstice
#

LMFAO

#

hehe

jagged ember
#

Never doubt mr

stoic island
#

ofc you can choose to get a 1080p144hz monitor

#

those are like 180$

crystal solstice
#

ye

#

that will do

jagged ember
#

Best system builder I know kek

crystal solstice
#

144hz is just fine

stoic island
#

@crystal solstice when are you building?

crystal solstice
#

he had a 1600 dollar laptop before with 300hz and rtx 2070supoer

#

and he said the heating was bad

stoic island
#

Because if you could wait for Intel next gen boards, and if those support this gen cpus...

fossil halo
#

how many watts does a 3080 system need

#

oh

jagged ember
#

Laptop thats why

crystal solstice
#

i am building whenver his pc is returned

stoic island
#

b560+10600k sounds great

fossil halo
#

i was making edward opris

#

a 5600x 3080 build

stoic island
#

heh

#

I'm doing 10600k 3070, since monitor, and stock

crystal solstice
#

he is returning his PC to bestbuy tmrw

fossil halo
#

ig

#

i mean

jagged ember
#

So a build asap

fossil halo
#

how many watt u need

stoic island
#

took me 1500$ to fit 5600+3080 last time

fossil halo
#

for 3080 tho

#

how

crystal solstice
#

u guys can both build and i can compare the parts its oke

fossil halo
#

im at like

jagged ember
#

It's still 1500

crystal solstice
#

for price range

fossil halo
#

1500 and i dont have a cpu cooler or psu

#

well

#

im not using founders bc its impossible to get those

crystal solstice
#

i could go 1650

#

i got some leeway

fossil halo
#

oh wait really?

stoic island
#

oh yea

fossil halo
#

then def

stoic island
#

tariffs, that's gonna suck

fossil halo
#

yea

#

china tax 😭

stoic island
#

what is it, 600$ starting on a 3070 now?

crystal solstice
#

600 only?

#

ddamn u sure?

still roostBOT
#
Edward Opris#5138 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

crystal solstice
#

that that **** was at least 800

#

oops i cant swear

#

uhh

stoic island
#

hmm

#

sad I can't fit 10600k+z490 board

#

but 10400+b460 does leave a good bit of leeway

fossil halo
#

mr111

stoic island
#

maybe 10400+z490, so you get upgradability (if intel doesn't go scummy) to next gen

fossil halo
#

make this like 100$ cheaper

#

try that

#

its like a 5600x 3080 build

#

if he can get founders then easy sub 1650

jagged ember
#

He needs a monitor tho

fossil halo
#

with corsair fans and aio

stoic island
#

wait

#

1650$?

fossil halo
#

wait monitor in the 1650?

#

yea

stoic island
#

I thought you meant gtx 1650 as a side note lmao

jagged ember
#

Me also

stoic island
#

including m27q

jagged ember
#

Ayyy

fossil halo
#

an i5 for that much

#

thats a bit lame

#

but then ig theres a really good gpu

stoic island
fossil halo
#

wait is he going to use stock cooler?

crystal solstice
#

hmm

fossil halo
#

with i5

crystal solstice
#

i5 dang

jagged ember
#

A 3600 for that much

fossil halo
#

intel stock cooler is ass and u know that

jagged ember
#

Would be a blessing

stoic island
#

10400f beats 3600 with decent ram

#

don't forget :P

jagged ember
#

But 3600 is way overpriced

stoic island
#

yea

jagged ember
fossil halo
#

its 199 rn

#

on newegg

jagged ember
#

Oops ping

#

199 on sale

#

Yes

crystal solstice
#

can u make it an i7 8700

stoic island
#

@jagged ember it's sad for low end, because with 2666mhz it falls behind

#

why

crystal solstice
#

if u go up to 1640

stoic island
#

@crystal solstice the 10400 and 10600k both will kill that for gaming

crystal solstice
#

sinceu got monitor included

stoic island
#

"i3 i5 i7" are just marketing terms

#

don't matter for performance

jagged ember
#

They really are

crystal solstice
#

hmm

jagged ember
#

I3 can crush games too

crystal solstice
#

104000 is good ?

jagged ember
#

10400 is good

crystal solstice
#

is it more eexpsnive

stoic island
#

look at the second list with 10600k

jagged ember
#

3600 equivalent

stoic island
#

if your budget could be stretched

crystal solstice
#

my budget is 1650 max with monitor

jagged ember
#

And it's less expensive than 3600

crystal solstice
#

thats all cuz my friend said money is tight

stoic island
#

then first list with 10400

crystal solstice
#

😦
