Wait so my side monitors have g sync but my expensive “gaming” monitor does not

wanton cliff Feb 28, 2021, 4:10 AM

#

makes sense

#

which monitor is it

frozen junco Feb 28, 2021, 4:10 AM

#

Samsung g5

#

27 inch

#

144hz

#

1440p

wanton cliff Feb 28, 2021, 4:11 AM

#

it looks like it came out right before samsung started supporting g sync

#

lol

frozen junco Feb 28, 2021, 4:11 AM

#

Noooooooooo

#

Does not mater to me

#

But funny

wanton cliff Feb 28, 2021, 4:11 AM

#

first samsung G-Sync monitor was the CRG5

frozen junco Feb 28, 2021, 4:12 AM

#

I got the monitor on for like 35% off so I am happy

wanton cliff Feb 28, 2021, 4:13 AM

#

I was without g-sync for a year with my 5700 XT and I was perfectly fine

#

speaking of which, I havent set up any kind of g sync compatibility with my current monitor an card yet

#

I should do that

should i build a pc with a 1660s and buy geforce now or just build a pc with a 3060ti

If you can get it definitely worth the 3060ti

But 12GB?

muted patio Feb 28, 2021, 6:21 AM

3060 can't even use all 12 GB lol

#

It's only 12 so people wouldn't complain about 6

#

192 bit bus can only address 6 or 12 GB of VRAM

sharp tundra Feb 28, 2021, 6:21 AM

#

They could've made it 8

muted patio Feb 28, 2021, 6:21 AM

You see, I wish corporations understood what it meant to be a customer, to be the one buying that product that the strived to get. Meanwhile, they laugh in your face for buying their most likely 3-4x price markup product, all in the name of an extra dollar to be had in their pockets

Honestly I would too, especially since the VRM on the MSI X570 boards doesn't have good reputation, let me double check if yours had the problem though

polar python Feb 28, 2021, 7:14 AM

is the toshiba p300 any better ?

It'll be there for you tomorrow, no worries

Arctic

brittle tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 10:12 AM

#

Their like server fans or something, extremely high rpm, but you need some sort of connected to the psu because it pulls 1.6 amps and mobos are 1.0 amp, I don’t know this for a fact, I’m just going off of specs and jaystwocents vid I watched

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 10:15 AM

The one where he almost cut his finger on the fan even after it was almost done spinning down?

you can low the fan rpm from msi afterburner

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 10:26 AM

Not if the fan is directly connected to the power supply

Which these fans do have to be

the power supply fan

Just molex

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 10:27 AM

#

honest ferry the power supply fan

No they're case fans meant for servers, they spin very fast and loud and use more power than a motherboard can give

brittle tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 10:27 AM

#

Alright, personal opinion fal would you go delta fan or Arctic p14

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 10:28 AM

#

I like having all my fingers so arctic

honest ferry Feb 28, 2021, 10:28 AM

or get another fans

and done

🥲

brittle tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 10:29 AM

#

Will Arctic provide enough cooling because I thermal throttle a lot on my prebuilt system because it’s always running load, and I keep my room temp in the 40s F

#

I’m not building a server fyi just a pc to handle gaming streaming, scripting, modeling and video editing

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 10:30 AM

#

If you're streaming you don't want a loud fan running 100% constantly audible in the background

brittle tinsel Feb 28, 2021, 10:31 AM

#

I have a noise gate and a filter on the mic that helps a whole lot with my a/c setup

hollow grail Feb 28, 2021, 11:26 AM

#

potent portal Poor solution for servers but ok

what server lol

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 11:29 AM

#

The server I assume a delta fan would be put in because not many would need that kind of power in a desktop, especially when they can get up to almost 70 dB

hollow grail Feb 28, 2021, 11:30 AM

theyre fun tho

what budget?

#

also need to see the prices for these parts

fierce hull Feb 28, 2021, 11:38 AM

#

all of this is 1185 $

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:38 AM

#

prices for each individual parts

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 11:38 AM

#

Here's my take on a couple pieces:
H410 is dead, no upgrade path
Case has no airflow
RAM is literal trash 2666C19
Switch Seagate for Western Digital, your data will thank me
You don't need to buy the full retail Windows key, save some money and buy from ebay

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:39 AM

#

and how much you're willing to pay

#

i agree with all the statements above

fierce hull Feb 28, 2021, 11:39 AM

#

i wanna be safe to buy in a shop windows 10

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:39 AM

you don't even need to buy windows key

#

Microsoft literally does not care, as long as you're not a business

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:39 AM

#

and buying from ebay has literally no risk

#

unless you're a business yes

#

then it's a problem

#

maybe

#

i like how we don't know how much he's willing to pay for a pc

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 11:41 AM

#

Give us a budget and someone will throw together a much better build

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:41 AM

#

the only good thing is the cpu

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

I know you said all this was $1185 but what's the most you can spend?

jagged ember Feb 28, 2021, 11:42 AM

#

and maybe the 2.5 inch ssd

#

`1200

potent portal Feb 28, 2021, 11:42 AM

It's better to wait until you have CPU and RAM and a GPU to test it properly though

did the same

it shoud turn on

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:15 PM

Try that

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:16 PM

#

well i had the same problem and once i figured it out i had blown my mobo and my psu up

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:16 PM

#

I doubt that's the problem if it's actually getting power

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:16 PM

#

but it did what was happening to him

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:17 PM

#

If the motherboard is getting power and the PSU is giving power, then it's most likely fine

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:17 PM

#

turned on for 1/2 sec then off

#

i think i blew a few capacitors

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:17 PM

#

Do you have the 8 pin CPU plugged in

#

Do you have any sort of GPU you can put in to test it

storm flicker Feb 28, 2021, 1:19 PM

#

no i don’t have any gpu at the moment i should in a day or two but i have the eight and twenty four pin plugged in

#

i removed the ram and cpu jus to see the mobo and it’s still the same

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:20 PM

#

I would wait until you get the GPU then

storm flicker Feb 28, 2021, 1:21 PM

#

alright thanks

#

and if the gpu doesn’t help is it just the mobo you’d think?

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:21 PM

srry caps was on

storm flicker Feb 28, 2021, 1:22 PM

i was ocing and i blew a few capacitors in my mobo and psu

#

i dont know if this is ur problem

I don't think you did

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:23 PM

#

but you never know

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:23 PM

#

You don't just blow capacitors like that

#

That's not how it works

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:24 PM

#

welll

#

why else would it turn on and then off

#

and i had to turn the psu off then on again

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:25 PM

#

Other reasons,

#

Probably had a grounding issue

#

Capacitors don't just blow up anymore,

gusty pasture Feb 28, 2021, 1:25 PM

#

i tried a different psu and mobo still didnt work

worn wave Feb 28, 2021, 1:25 PM

You could buy a premade pc, but if you go into the pc build menu, you are just purchasing the items and you will have to build it yourself.

#

Building your own PC takes more time, and makes you really learn the parts of your computer but it could end up saving you money and being customized towards what you want with it.

Just searched craigslist, gave me stuff from Maryland as the closest. I'm nearly four hours of driving away. no way. currently searching facebook. how can i be sure that the gpu would work?

#

I'm finding alot of 3070s so I'm concerned about being ripped off

#

all of the 3070s want 3080s

#

um, is anyone here?

#

hey vintage!

not sure what the question is? Only way to get a GPU right now is second hand market or wait for things to come in stock

#

yes, how does one know if the gpu is functional before purchasing on a second hand market? is there some way to test it? I just found a few gpus. plus why are people getting rig of 3070s and wanting 3080s?

#

like my mother asked, how do i know if the gpu will last more than a few minutes

You don't, it's a risk.

#

Just like buying from Ebay is a risk

#

Trading for mining most likely

#

eh, then it could already be dead then if they are mining with it.

Nah

#

mining doesn't kill GPU's like people think it does

#

thought running the gpu for 24 hours, 7 days a week on full power or overclocking would kill the gpu?

#

they don't run at full power for mining though

#

most are undervolted

#

etc

And also, it just degrades performance over time, not kill the card

It's no worse for the card than gaming on it
