i made a stop motion vid about it

idk if that can help

[wanton cliff]

[wanton cliff]

its literally half a second

half a second of latency

[balmy patio]

such powers sara's brain has

[wanton cliff]

rip

no 5900x today

[muted patio]

They're in regular stock now lol

[wanton cliff]

oh cool

[gusty abyss]

oh dang

[wanton cliff]

you lie

only 3900xes exist on wegg

[static ravine]

hmmm

[wanton cliff]

the red part at the top means out of stock

I accidentally cut it off

[gusty abyss]

5800x in stock though

[wanton cliff]

not good enough

[balmy patio]

smh

[wanton cliff]

whats the temp difference between an Arctic Freezer II and an EK 240mm AIO on a 5800x

[balmy patio]

[fossil halo]

i think not much

[balmy patio]

same

[wanton cliff]

ill be getting EK then

[fossil halo]

ek looks miles better

[mortal garnet]

ek aio is pretty

[fossil halo]

yea

i want it

the 240 rgb one

[mortal garnet]

i have it but no window so ggs

its covered up lmao

[little osprey]

Ye it is

[balmy patio]

bruh even the 240 basic looks better than the liquid freezer ii

[wanton cliff]

waitwaitwaitwaitwait

[balmy patio]

no

[wanton cliff]

wait one gosh darn second

[static ravine]

Hmmmmmmmm

[wanton cliff]

"240mm"

[gusty abyss]

but the vrm fan

[muted patio]

wat

[static ravine]

what?

[mortal garnet]

crammed one in my build lol

[balmy patio]

what case is that?

[mortal garnet]

nr200

[wanton cliff]

is that not a 360mm fan???

not fan

rad

AIO

[muted patio]

Yes, the pic is

[static ravine]

it is 360

[balmy patio]

😩🤌 nr200

[mortal garnet]

i hve trident royal too

but you cant see it lmao

[muted patio]

That price is way hacked up tho

SUpposed to be $150 for 360

$120 for 240

[wanton cliff]

second is this: have EK AIOs always been this expensive?

[mortal garnet]

didnt cm release a new aio ?

[balmy patio]

look at ek's website

[muted patio]

No

Check amazon

[balmy patio]

idk if they still have free shipping

[muted patio]

lol

https://www.amazon.com/EK-Premium-EK-Vardar-High-Performance-Computer/dp/B0842Z9WYG?th=1

[wanton cliff]

I wonder if this 360mm would fit in my P400

it would be a tight fit

[muted patio]

Even wegg is $120 https://www.newegg.com/ekwb-liquid-cooling-system-ek-aio-240mm-d-rgb/p/37B-000B-003G2

[wanton cliff]

can barely fit 3 separate fans in the front tbh

[gusty abyss]

stop getting prices from 3rd party sellers lol

[mortal garnet]

https://wccftech.com/cooler-master-masterliquid-ml360-sub-zero-aio-thermoelectric-cooler-unveil/

[wanton cliff]

I look up "EK aio" on amazon, the first thing that pops up is a 360mm from EK and the next everything on the next 3 pages is Arctic and NZXT only

[balmy patio]

https://www.ekwb.com/shop/ek-aio-360-d-rgb ek website

[wanton cliff]

does it only work on Intel sockets?

[mortal garnet]

im not sure, there isnt much about it yet

[gusty abyss]

I think it's only intel yeah

[wanton cliff]

ill probs wait for it to exist to buy it then

[gusty abyss]

because intel was involved with designing it

[wanton cliff]

or make a 11900k PC with it

[gusty abyss]

there was a linus video on it a while back

[wanton cliff]

i know

but he wouldnt unveil it

it was blurred

[ember crystal]

can someone help me navigate asus' bios to enable xmp/docp

[muted patio]

Should be right on the home screen

[fossil halo]

did u get it?\

[ember crystal]

?

Get what

[muted patio]

It's right on the home screen, front page

[brittle tinsel]

did you find how to active xmp

[muted patio]

Center left

[ember crystal]

I’m setting up my first pc

[brittle tinsel]

are you in the bios?

[ember crystal]

Yea

[wanton cliff]

remember, keep making amogus edits of Stonetoss's work, he is a modern day nazi and he hates amogus, so use it to screw with him.

[muted patio]

Left Center

It's right on the main BIOS page like this

DOCP

[wanton cliff]

DOCP

enable and set to factory settings (on box)

[ember crystal]

Mine doesn’t look like that

[muted patio]

What board is it

[wanton cliff]

ah

[muted patio]

GO back to Main

[wanton cliff]

a B550?

[ember crystal]

Rog strix z490 g

[muted patio]

And Easy Mode

[wanton cliff]

its not in main

it should be in AI tweaker

[ember crystal]

Ok

[wanton cliff]

then XMP profile

[muted patio]

Ah, Intel is XMP ye

Here, like this

AI Tweaker tab, that line

[ember crystal]

Ok what do I do

[brittle tinsel]

wait whats amd use then?

[muted patio]

DOCP

[wanton cliff]

Vintage, have you ever used a Asus B-series AMD board?

[brittle tinsel]

same thing im guessing?

[muted patio]

XMP is Intel's term, Asus didn't pay for licensing the word XMP from Intel lol

[wanton cliff]

DOCP

dont even know what it stands for

[ember crystal]

Mine only has auto manual xmp 1 and xmp 2

[muted patio]

XMP1

[ember crystal]

Ok

Now what

[muted patio]

Save and exit

[ember crystal]

How do I do that lol

[muted patio]

Exit tab

On the top

[ember crystal]

Ok why did I change it to xmp 1 exactly

[muted patio]

To get the ram to advertised speeds

[ember crystal]

Oh ok

There?

[muted patio]

Exit

Save and Exit

If you don't enable XMP it will run at JEDEC speeds, probs 2133

or 2400

[muted patio]

Save changes and reset

[wanton cliff]

2133 on Asus boards

idk about others

[muted patio]

Depends on JEDEC ram spec actually

[ember crystal]

I pressed ok

It’s resetting

[wanton cliff]

[ember crystal]

Now what

[obsidian wolf]

Hey guys

[muted patio]

CPU OVertemp?

[obsidian wolf]

Anyone can tell me if this build worth it

[muted patio]

Plug your CPU fan into the CPU fan header

[obsidian wolf]

But can I send link in here?

[muted patio]

CPU hot

[vagrant olive]

yes

[obsidian wolf]

https://youtu.be/35nE3U3_mUE

I’m trying to help a friend

I want him to get the best build with only 1500$

[ember crystal]

How do I do that

[muted patio]

You take the wire from the CPU fan and plug it into the motherboard where it says CPU_FAN

[wanton cliff]

should be 4 pin, next to the socket/above DIMM slots

DIMM slots being where you slot RAM into

on Asus boards, afaik, should also be next to a white header (aRGB?)

[brittle tinsel]

anyone here know anything about adata swordfish drives?

[ember crystal]

They are already plugged in

[wanton cliff]

dont buy from adata

[ember crystal]

But I accidentally unplugged the cpu wire and so I turned it off but now it won’t turn back on

[wanton cliff]

did you do it

[brittle tinsel]

why not?

[wanton cliff]

while the PC was on?

[ember crystal]

Yea

[wanton cliff]

hot, bad NAND, usually slow writes for what you are paying for

[wanton cliff]

[ember crystal]

What now

[wanton cliff]

dont ever do something like that while PC is on

[ember crystal]

What did I do

Yea. I didn’t mean to

I knocked it out

So why won’t it turn back on now

[muted patio]

What cooler did you use with the cpu?

That's not just a fan error

That's an actual over temp error

[ember crystal]

X63

Nzxt

It won’t turn on what do I do

[muted patio]

Did you use thermal paste and take the plastic off the pump?

[ember crystal]

I used thermal paste but haven’t taken the plastic off the top of the pump

[muted patio]

CPU getting hot, that's not right. Need to check connections first

[ember crystal]

Like what

[fossil halo]

wait

what

ur supposed to take off the plastic

[muted patio]

Like, the pump itself should be on the WP PUMP header at the bottom of the board

Fans should be on the CPU fan header

[brittle tinsel]

i think he is talking about the plastic is still on the lcd part

[muted patio]

The pump is also powered by a SATA cable that needs to be plugged in

[desert gulch]

Vintage can a 560 do the same ram speed a 490 can on a 10400f?

[ember crystal]

Correct

[muted patio]

Ye

[desert gulch]

Ight pog

[brittle tinsel]

wait nzxt pumps take a sata port?

the more you know

[muted patio]

Sata power yes

NOt data

POWER

[brittle tinsel]

ah

different port?

[muted patio]

Same type as drives

the long one

[ember crystal]

This is a look at my pc

[brittle tinsel]

Ohhhhh I get it now

[ember crystal]

What do I need to do

[muted patio]

Where are the rest of the cables for the pump?

[ember crystal]

Wdym

[muted patio]

You're missing a whole set of cables

[ember crystal]

That’s all no?

[muted patio]

No

[muted patio]

yeah that

That's what powers the pump

No power = no cool

Hence the CPU over temp

Check the NZXT manual lol

https://nzxt-site-media.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/uploads/download/attachment/845/KRAKEN-X_Manual_690x405_020720_for_web.pdf

[ember crystal]

I have that in front of me

I have the N in

[muted patio]

Grab the manual that came with the X63 and connect it per the sheet

[ember crystal]

I have that plug in front of me where would I plug them in

[muted patio]

3 pin to water pump header, sata power to sata power

[ember crystal]

I can’t find where to put any of those

[fossil halo]

@ember crystal what mobo do u have

[balmy patio]

get a sata cable

and the other cable connect to a pump header

[fossil halo]

it should have a pump header

[balmy patio]

might be fan/pump

[fossil halo]

yea

but if u find the mobo specific manual

[ember crystal]

Rog strix z490 g wifi

[fossil halo]

oh ok

yea

its at the top of the motherbaord

the pump header

[muted patio]

No

Bottom right

[fossil halo]

oh right

thats the usb header

[muted patio]

Sata power goes to the power supply

[fossil halo]

yea

sata goes to psu

one pump header

and one usb 2

[ember crystal]

But I have 2 things in USB 2 already

I have sata into Psu now

[muted patio]

Then unplug one. You need a USB 2.0 header if you want ot control the pump

Screen is useless without it

So is pump control

[ember crystal]

Which one

[brittle tinsel]

what do you have plugged into it

[ember crystal]

One is into pump head

And other is power to my hub for all my fans and leds

[brittle tinsel]

so then the pump is already plugged in. no?

[ember crystal]

I guess

It’s micro USB

[brittle tinsel]

@muted patio its plugged in then right? or am I going crazy

[muted patio]

Ah good

That's fine

[muted patio]

Sata power and Water Pump header is all that's needed

From the other cable

[ember crystal]

Those are what I have plugged in

[muted patio]

So good to go now, pump will actually work

[ember crystal]

Ok

There are 2 cables that do nothing now?

[brittle tinsel]

will this fix the issue with it not turning on?

what do the cables go to?

[ember crystal]

No I figured it out

[muted patio]

One is RGB, not needed

Should be the only one unhooked

[ember crystal]

The front panel plug fell out

[muted patio]

Out of all 4 of those, only one should be unhooked

[brittle tinsel]

that may be why it wasnt turning on then

yo vintage

what would you rate wd blue M.2?

[ember crystal]

Those aren’t plugged in

Sata and the N one are

Plugged in

[muted patio]

The other 3 pin like a fan connector

Goes on the WP header

Bottom right of the motherboard

[ember crystal]

Which one? Can u circle it

[muted patio]

It's in this pic

right next to front panel

[ember crystal]

Sata 1

Or w_pump

[muted patio]

W_PUMP

[ember crystal]

It doesn’t fit

They both have pins

[muted patio]

That's RGB

Don't connect it

[ember crystal]

Ok the other one is way too short to reach any where and it’s 3 not 4

So should I be good?

@muted patio

[muted patio]

The other one is needed to control the pump speed

The 3 or 4 pin

[ember crystal]

But look how short it is

[muted patio]

Move one of the cooler fans to the CHA_FAN header by the PCI-E slot

Plug the AIO Pump white one into the CPU_FAN header

[ember crystal]

I am so confused

[muted patio]

Unplug one of the fans from CPU_FAN

Move it to the fan header by the PCI-E slot where the GPU goes

Plug the white connector in your hand into the CPU_FAN header

[ember crystal]

No point cause they all go into a hub

[muted patio]

What's in here then, top right?

[ember crystal]

Micro usb

Then is goes into that

Where would I put that isn’t it needed?

[muted patio]

Not that lol

TOP RIGHT OF MOTHERBOARD

The fan connections

You have something there

[brittle tinsel]

not what is circled, he reused your photo

[ember crystal]

Oh put them into the hub

[brittle tinsel]

@muted patio you talking about this?

[ember crystal]

I get it

[muted patio]

Yes

[ember crystal]

Ok

[muted patio]

The white plug from previous pic should go to one of those

[brittle tinsel]

does pny make decent ssds?

[muted patio]

Mushkin pilot E or Hynix P31 gold IMO

[brittle tinsel]

this is all I got for cheap boot drives, im trying to avoid spending more, but if I have to so they last im fine with that.

brb

[muted patio]

At that price point, just pick one TBH

[stoic island]

uh

lemme see if any of em can be decent

[ember crystal]

I don’t see any whit plugs?

[stoic island]

what the heck

[ember crystal]

That I just plugged into the hub

Is that ok?

[muted patio]

No, needs to go to the MB

[ember crystal]

Oh ok

Like that?

[muted patio]

Yes, you got it

[stoic island]

@brittle tinsel This might actually be decent
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/mPgPxr/adata-ultimate-su800-128-gb-25-solid-state-drive-asu800ss-128gt-c

[ember crystal]

Now put panels back on and turn on?

[muted patio]

Don't put panels on

See if it will boot

Go to BIOS

and check fan speeds, etc

Make sure everything is reading properly

[stoic island]

(You can turn it on with the panel off without any risks or issues)

[muted patio]

With your board and the way it's hooked up, all the fan monitors should be reading something

[ember crystal]

I put back panel on but if needed I’ll take it off

This is what I got

Now the nzxt logo lights up

So it’s workin

[muted patio]

Just sit there for a minute

CPU temp is top right

See if it goes up too much

Last time you got a CPU OVERTEMP warning

All your fans are spinning?

[ember crystal]

28 C

No ups or downs

[muted patio]

All the fans are spinning though?

[ember crystal]

Yeaa

[muted patio]

nice!

[ember crystal]

So I’m good to go?

[muted patio]

Mmmm, go to monitor tab

Should be a fan section there

Need to set the AIO pump, where you plugged in the white connector, to 100%

CPU_OPT I think?

Or CPU_FAN

Whichever you chose

[ember crystal]

I can’t find either

[muted patio]

This connector, is it in the HUB or on the motherboard?

[brittle tinsel]

I asked about it earlier but @wanton cliff told me not to buy adata evert

ever

[ember crystal]

Motherboard

[muted patio]

Right or left at the top?

[ember crystal]

Right

[muted patio]

CPU_OPT then, OK

[ember crystal]

This one

[muted patio]

Ye

If you scroll down, is there somewhere to change the CPU Optional speed to 100%?

[ember crystal]

Cpu optional fan speed?

[muted patio]

Q Fan Configuration near the bottom

That should take you to a screen where you can set CPU OPtional Fan everything to 100% so the pump is 100% all the time

[ember crystal]

This is where it took me

[muted patio]

Q fan tuning

[ember crystal]

I clicked it

And gave me this

[muted patio]

Ah, go ahead

It will check RPM ranges of fans

They'll spin up and down

Then you can control them

[ember crystal]

Ok

Click ok?

[muted patio]

yeah

[ember crystal]

Now what

[muted patio]

Can you change the CPU Optional to 100% yet?

[ember crystal]

I can’t seem to find that

[muted patio]

Lemme check something, brb

Ok, it looks like you can do it with the NZXT CAM software. I prefer BIOS though so if something happens to the software it's always at 100%

Just do your Windows thing. Save and Exit from BIOS and run

[ember crystal]

Ok so I go to exit

Then out windows on?

I will put windows on later

[muted patio]

Yeah you should be fine

Just make sure to install the NZXT Cam software to control your pump and fans, etc

[fossil halo]

amogus

nzxt cam is kinda sus

[ripe wedge]

nzxt cam is alright

its gotten better

still uses a decent chunk of ram tho

[muted patio]

Yeah, I agree

But, easy to use also

[bronze island]

Anybody recommend a good curved 144hz or above monitor?

[stoic island]

b u d g e t?

[bronze island]

nothing abouce 300$ USD

abovr

above

[stoic island]

what gpu

[bronze island]

5500xt

If I could 3070 but ya know. Silicone shortages.

Ryzen 9 CPU

[quasi snow]

Maybe this?

[wanton cliff]

silicon not silicone

[stoic island]

hm if you had 3070, i'd prob say a g27qc but

@quasi snow I wouldn't do that with a 5500xt

[quasi snow]

I interpreted their message as they were using a 5500xt waiting for a 3070

[bronze island]

He is right

You can pre order a 3070 right now on Amazon just gotta figure out how

[little osprey]

yo

[wanton cliff]

gib price point

[little osprey]

I need a 1440p build that can run solid fps

2k

[wanton cliff]

$2000 or 2k resolution?

[little osprey]

and I'd also like a 1k budget build

[wanton cliff]

1k isnt exactly budget

[little osprey]

ik

[fossil halo]

2k is 1440p tho

[little osprey]

but still

[wanton cliff]

but alright, one sec

[little osprey]

i need peripherals and all included

[wanton cliff]

ah

[fossil halo]

for 2000 5800 3080

[small osprey]

thats a bit harder

[small osprey]

peripherals included

[fossil halo]

yea

[little osprey]

can you give me the best value build for 1440p

[fossil halo]

pc should come out to ~1600 400 is a lot of p=money for perps

[small osprey]

for 2k budget 10700k and 3060ti and a m27q

[fossil halo]

300$ monitor

50$ kb 50$ mouse

wait

ok

5600 3080

[wanton cliff]

@worn wave has a sexy PC with sexy fans

[worn wave]

Noctua ❤️

that pic is kinda crappy tbh

[wanton cliff]

no GPU or anything yet but thats fine

[worn wave]

Quadro P2200 most likely

[wanton cliff]

got that quad channel RAM

[worn wave]

or RTX 4000

[severe axle]

what about chromax fans

[wanton cliff]

I thought you were a gamer?

[worn wave]

no

I havent played games in months

and my gaming system has a GTX 770 lmao

[rough stump]

hey I'm looking to build my first pc and I was wondering what a good case would be? I am trying to keep it budget but I want one that will be big enough

[wanton cliff]

give me your steam library

[worn wave]

I was going to get a 3070 but I stopped playing games

[balmy patio]

at what price?

[stoic island]

MX330-g air at 50$ on newegg

[balmy patio]

^

[wanton cliff]

what price point

for the whole build

[stoic island]

They say "keep it budget" so

[rough stump]

I want to keep the whole build under 2k

[wanton cliff]

thats easy

[balmy patio]

oh bruv

[stoic island]

Oh that's pretty high budget

[wanton cliff]

you could get a 3080

[worn wave]

yeah

[rough stump]

Im pretty new to all of this

[wanton cliff]

and a 5800x or something

[stoic island]

I'd say go with a TD500 mesh at 100$ for the case then

[worn wave]

Get a P500a or something then

[stoic island]

@rough stump give us the list on pcpp once you make a list and we can help you improve it.

[wanton cliff]

we've forgotten about giga

[rough stump]

I have a list

hang on

[wanton cliff]

send it

also dibs

on fixing it

[worn wave]

lmao

[balmy patio]

smh

[rough stump]

wait so how does the list work

[wanton cliff]

wdym?

[rough stump]

do you guys just edit mine and send it back

[wanton cliff]

yeah

just send it

[rough stump]

or will you be editing the origional

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NZQRbh

dont bully me im very very new to this

[stoic island]

nah your list on your end stays the same

and uh

that 2070 super pricing is uh

yea no

[balmy patio]

big price smh

[rough stump]

I couldnt find anythin

I want a good gpu though

[balmy patio]

at what resolution are you gonna play at

and what fps you trying to achieve in what games

[rough stump]

I dont need 4k

[fossil halo]

is 4000d good

corsair

[wanton cliff]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MPfmHz

[rough stump]

but I want probably 100+ fps and I want it to be vr ready

[wanton cliff]

fixed

[wanton cliff]

2070 super is not great for VR tbh

[small osprey]

yes

[balmy patio]

ight

[rough stump]

that 3070 isnt in stock

[wanton cliff]

you need to catch it

[rough stump]

hmm

[wanton cliff]

nothing is in stock

[rough stump]

I also wanted an ssd

[wanton cliff]

and I mean nothing

[wanton cliff]

there is an SSD

[balmy patio]

ssd + hdd is fine

if you want pure ssd just tell us

[rough stump]

oh my bad

[wanton cliff]

1tb P31 gold with a 2tb WD Blue Caviar

[rough stump]

only 1 was showing up

I see it now

so does that compatibility error with the mobo mean anything?

[wanton cliff]

yes and no

that motherboard doesnt support the CPU out of the box

but it does have flashback

[balmy patio]

^

flash bios and you're good to go

[small osprey]

caviar old

[rough stump]

so I have to flashback the motherboard

[wanton cliff]

yes

[rough stump]

ok

[wanton cliff]

just plug in USB with the BIOS, press flashback button, and you are good to go after a few minutes

[rough stump]

theres probably a tutorial online for it

Ill look it up

[small osprey]

thats not it lmao

you need to rename the file

[balmy patio]

also @rough stump if you're willing to go with intel, the 10600k is cheap asf rn

[wanton cliff]

tfw school website is under too heavy a load for you to be able to do school

[wanton cliff]

its basically all

they are going to look up how online anyways

[small osprey]

mm

[rough stump]

so i want some of the other peoples opinions

[balmy patio]

the manual will tell you what to do, other mobo manufacturers might do it differently than how your mobo does it so a video might not help at all

[rough stump]

is saras part list good

[balmy patio]

your manual is your best friend

[small osprey]

yes

[rough stump]

ok

[balmy patio]

eh

[small osprey]

i didnt even look

but it’s probably good

[rough stump]

oh

[small osprey]

lemme look

[rough stump]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MPfmHz

thats it

[fossil halo]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G3H4vf

[balmy patio]

i'll make it cheaper

[fossil halo]

is this good

for the 1440p 2k dude

[small osprey]

why’s there no psu

[rough stump]

I dont need it cheaper I just wanna know if its good

[wanton cliff]

yes, but im sure it can be improved upon

[fossil halo]

amp

[balmy patio]

sara smh

[small osprey]

intel

go intel

[balmy patio]

imma do an intel list

[rough stump]

you sure?

[balmy patio]

ye fs

[small osprey]

yes

[fossil halo]

what happened to the 2k 1440p dude

[rough stump]

how much of a difference is it

[wanton cliff]

he left lol

[small osprey]

itll be way easier to get, and will be a lot more value

[balmy patio]

300 bucks for 5600x, 175 for 10600k

[small osprey]

^

[rough stump]

ok

[small osprey]

stick a 10700k in there

[balmy patio]

or once the price goes back up, 210 for 10600kf

[rough stump]

I heard amd is better at multitasking though

[wanton cliff]

10600k better upgrade path for future also

[fossil halo]

oh

@little osprey https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G3H4vf

[small osprey]

nope

[fossil halo]

this should be a ok list

[small osprey]

less cores

worse

[rough stump]

huh ok

[wanton cliff]

depends on the generation. Both are about the same right now in terms of what they can do.

[fossil halo]

more cores=better multitasking essentially

[small osprey]

model>brand

[fossil halo]

higher clock speeds= better gaming perf

[wanton cliff]

technically better everything perf

[small osprey]

technically

[fossil halo]

yea

but like intel x vs normal i9

the normal one has less cores but better for gaming

[rough stump]

should I do an i9?

which intel should I do

[fossil halo]

whats ur budget

[small osprey]

^

[rough stump]

under 2k

[fossil halo]

and what are ur requirements

[balmy patio]

ayo bruh 275r airflow is only 55 bucks

[rough stump]

hopefully around 1500

[fossil halo]

with peripherals or no

[small osprey]

are you near a microcenter?

[balmy patio]

@rough stump https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QsmxQD

[rough stump]

I am not near a microcenter

[balmy patio]

made it cheap

[rough stump]

I think

[fossil halo]

do u already have monitor, kb, mouse, audio etc

@rough stump

[rough stump]

no I dont

[fossil halo]

oh ok

[rough stump]

but im including that seperate for now

[fossil halo]

so 2k for the whole thing

oh ok

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G3H4vf

[rough stump]

yeah

[fossil halo]

this is 2k for the whole thing

[small osprey]

bad

[fossil halo]

what about it

[small osprey]

wait

lemme get to my pc

rq

[wanton cliff]

School website is under too heavy a load rn smh

cant do school

[fossil halo]

imagine

[wanton cliff]

cause school website is down

[rough stump]

lol

[fossil halo]

poggers

[balmy patio]

[wanton cliff]

[fossil halo]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G3H4vf

[wanton cliff]

yeah lol

[fossil halo]

give feedback

[balmy patio]

canvas is being slow for me too lmao

[fossil halo]

schoology 😎

but not actually

bc schoology is dogwater as it is

[rough stump]

I cant pick an intel for some reason

[balmy patio]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZBTrfP fixed sara's list and made it cheap

[rough stump]

not showing up

[fossil halo]

change the motherboard

[rough stump]

to what

whats a good one

[wanton cliff]

Hyper 212

you can get Ballistix for $10 cheaper rn (better die)

Sabrent rocket is about same as P31

[balmy patio]

you can make it even cheaper and go 3200cl16 for the ram

once it goes back down to like 50-60 bucks

[wanton cliff]

no

not on Zen3

[balmy patio]

on the intel one

[wanton cliff]

too slow

[muted patio]

Why are we going 10600k instead of 5600x?

[fossil halo]

3600 is good

[wanton cliff]

cause its cheap as hell rn

[balmy patio]

it's cheap bruv

[muted patio]

Yean and 20% slower

[wanton cliff]

ehhhhh

[muted patio]

https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-amd_ryzen_5_5600x-1750-vs-intel_core_i5_10600k-1141

[wanton cliff]

I did a 5600x build but true

[small osprey]

@rough stump https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dYQRbh

[wanton cliff]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MPfmHz

[rough stump]

interesting

[muted patio]

Just my .02

[wanton cliff]

this one better 100%

[rough stump]

so the i7 is better than a ryzen 5?

[small osprey]

theres no psu

[muted patio]

I7 what

[wanton cliff]

depends on the i7 and Ryzen 5

[wanton cliff]

yes there is lol

[rough stump]

intel i7

[wanton cliff]

check

[muted patio]

Intel i7 what, 10600?

[wanton cliff]

i7... 3700k?

4600u?

[prime plover]

Thoughts on the rx 6700 xt?

[rough stump]

umm

[small osprey]

there literally isnt

[wanton cliff]

no benchmarks yet

[rough stump]

10700kf

[small osprey]

10700kf vs 5600x

[wanton cliff]

lmao check the list

[prime plover]

Yeah but we have what AMD has said.

[rough stump]

yeah

[rough stump]

this

[prime plover]

So based off of what AMD says what are people's thoughts.

[small osprey]

I DID

[wanton cliff]

and when has their word been accurate?

[muted patio]

10700K still slower

https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-amd_ryzen_5_5600x-1750-vs-intel_core_i7_10700k-1140

[wanton cliff]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jMTrfP this one???

[muted patio]

15%

Except multi core

[small osprey]

you posted something else before smh

[muted patio]

But games 5600x will win

[prime plover]

🤷‍♂️ I mean AMD is pretty accurate. They have shown diagrams of in game performance. 🤷‍♂️

[wanton cliff]

then I reposted it

[wanton cliff]

diagrams that have proven to be less than accurate in many cases

[small osprey]

well i mean

either is fine

[rough stump]

I think I want to stick with a 5600x

[wanton cliff]

same with NoVideo and Shintel

[rough stump]

but thats just me

[muted patio]

Eh, real world testing has proven a lot of those graphs to be poo

WHen it comes to manufacturers testing

3060 is a great example.

[wanton cliff]

lmao

"2070 super performance all the time"

is actually usually a 2060 super or worse

[muted patio]

I mean, 6800 is just slightly ahead of the 3070

AMD is targeting the 3070 with the 6700XT so I call BS

[rough stump]

thank you guys for your help, I appreciate it. I'm gonna use these lists to see what I like. Thanks!

[muted patio]

I see more 3060TI

[little osprey]

it looks good price 🤔

[mild roost]

woah

[haughty furnace]

So, you @muted patio are saying that a b450 can’t handle 4 rams? Does that means the loading screen will take longer?

[muted patio]

wat

[wanton cliff]

it can handle 4 DIMMs

[muted patio]

no

[wanton cliff]

but its old

[muted patio]

?

never said that, I said with some processors it slows the speed down

[wanton cliff]

I've told you 5 times now LightGod, B550 is the way to go

not B450

[haughty furnace]

I’m just saying that’s all. 😐

[lament fulcrum]

Just get b550 its the same prices for better chipset

Why do you even need 4 dimms anyway? You making a workstation?

[haughty furnace]

And @wanton cliff besides I won’t be able to get a b550 for while now, since the prices just skyrocket again.

[worn wave]

no?

Motherboard prices have stayed the same

[wanton cliff]

not for B550 boards?

just get a cheap MSI board or something

[worn wave]

Theres so many B550 boards also

[muted patio]

https://www.newegg.com/asrock-b550-pro4/p/N82E16813157941?Description=b550&cm_re=b550-_-13-157-941-_-Product

$125

[wanton cliff]

more B550 boards than GPUs

I literally just saw a B550 that was down a hundred dollars on sale that wasnt snatched up by literally everyone

[muted patio]

The Velocitas?

No flashback tho

[haughty furnace]

@muted patio Er....I’m very picky when comes to looks for my pc build. So I pick this https://www.newegg.com/asus-rog-strix-b550-f-gaming/p/N82E16813119312?Description=b550&cm_re=b550-_-13-119-312-_-Product&quicklink=true and I have to saved some bucks for this.

[muted patio]

That's fine too

Mine was just an example

[wanton cliff]

I prefer the TUF one myself but that one is good too

[haughty furnace]

Is better to have wifi with or without?

[worn wave]

Depends

[wanton cliff]

do you need wifi?

[worn wave]

Do you want WiFi?

It has Bluetooth also if you need that

[muted patio]

Onboard is usually a minimal price increase or less than an add in card.

[earnest olive]

i like onboard wifi when available but i don't let it be a deciding factor in which board to buy

[wanton cliff]

^

[earnest olive]

it is totally fine to add in wifi to an otherwise superior board without wifi

[wanton cliff]

I dont use wifi anyways

[earnest olive]

but it is nice when it is there

[wanton cliff]

I got this little USB wifi thing for when I need it

but otherwise its useless

[small osprey]

usb wifi wack

[wanton cliff]

^

[haughty furnace]

Yeah, and my room is the farthest area in my home. Can’t have Ethernet cable all over the place.

[wanton cliff]

still 60mbps so I just use it when i need to move it to an awkward place

[earnest olive]

I personally don't use wifi but my customers do

usb wifi has been fine

[wanton cliff]

I have all my games downloaded already

so

i dont need that fast of a connection

[earnest olive]

add a $12 usb wifi dongle to a $80 budget mobo

does 400mbps no problem

[wanton cliff]

only 60 for me

damn you linksys

ping is small tho

so thats nice

[haughty furnace]

Last question: WiFi card or usb wifi?

[muted patio]

WiFi card

PCI-E preferably. USB WiFi tends to be meh

[lament fulcrum]

Up to you

Yeah pcie will have higher bandwith

[earnest olive]

I have not received any complaints from customers using cheap usb wifi

even the ones that play competitive games

[wanton cliff]

card

can get real speed

[lament fulcrum]

I have a super tiny usb wifi thing but i never use it

Cant remember who its made by

[earnest olive]

personally I would use a pcie card but it depends on your budget

[lament fulcrum]

Cheap too

[earnest olive]

when the budget is $600 usb wifi definitely makes sense

[haughty furnace]

Meh, I “was” planning to buy wifi card for my motherboard.

[lament fulcrum]

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B008IFXQFU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_fabc_2TRRAS8V7WX4DSPVZA10?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

10$

[haughty furnace]

Asus ax3000 (Pce-AX58BT) this the card I’m planning to buy.

[earnest olive]

usb 2.0 has 480 mbps of bandwidth
