dunno if it stands for anything

scenic plaza Mar 10, 2021, 4:06 PM

#

also should i get 5800x or 5600x

stoic island Mar 10, 2021, 4:06 PM

#

"larger case for large cooler" wise, all good cases I like to recommend can fit d15s/u12a, like td500 mesh, lancool ii mesh, p500a

#

and I've recently been informed p400a can fit d15, although not confirmed

scenic plaza Mar 10, 2021, 4:06 PM

#

like which is better for gaming

stoic island Mar 10, 2021, 4:07 PM

#

@scenic plaza 5800x is kinda stupid price wise, I'd love to see when AMD makes a 5700x, so, unless you need the extra cores, 5600x is a better value proposition

scenic plaza Mar 10, 2021, 4:07 PM

I'd personally just go for td500 mesh/lancool ii mesh/p500a

I don't really like the look of hole-in-metal, but it's fine

stoic island and I've recently been informed p400a can fit d15, although not confirmed

P400A can definitely fit an nh-d15, just can't raise the second fan to clear RAM at all. Can use a case fan instead of the stock second fan and mount the second nh-d15 fan to the case

Yes, the clear ram part is the unknown bit

#

I'd like to see when possible of measurements or testing on which kits will work and which won't

scenic plaza Mar 10, 2021, 4:09 PM

bc 5900x is good to

stoic island Mar 10, 2021, 4:10 PM

Ah, you need really short ram to fit it I think, somewhere in the 30-36mm range, but I don't know what exactly you can get away with

stoic island Mar 10, 2021, 4:10 PM

#

Aegis maybe

#

but I'd like to see AT LEAST ripjaws fitting as "compatible"

Noctua claims 32mm clearance with the second fan in the standard position. I have ripjaws and didn't think I could get the fan high enough to clear them while putting the side panel on

Sure, but rgb doesn't do anything for that and one could argue that a focus on quality at the expense of rgb can provide higher quality at a lower price point. I guess I'd more say I want fan manufacturer's to focus on value (price/perf)

what happens if you build on carpet?

Theoretically you can damage components with static electricity. It's not likely, but better to just build on a wood table or something

What? In price/perf competition the second company is winning. Same quality at a better price from another company forces the company with the more expensive product to find ways to reduce prices while maintaining quality. Currently my impression is the market is much more about what is shinier basically, companies are competing more on how much rgb they can squeeze into a fan and how much "gamer" branding they can do

balmy patio Mar 10, 2021, 5:21 PM

#

exactly

#

sometimes tho you gotta compromise quality for looks so eh it's not that bad

#

and once you make it look good and you don't poo out on quality, things get expensive

rich void Mar 10, 2021, 5:23 PM

I don't personally find looks to be important in a fan

balmy patio Mar 10, 2021, 5:24 PM

The prices on reference cards, which are the only ones sold out of amd.com, are fine imo. If you don't care about ray tracing, dlss, or NVENC a 6800 or 6800xt is pretty good.

Would these be good RGB fans? Also would they work with my icue h150i elite AIO's fans (in the icue software)?

#

These are looking like my best option as far as availability and price so I'm hoping someone has input on performance

frozen junco Mar 10, 2021, 6:08 PM

#

As long as it is a Corsair product is with rgb it syncs

I think I have those same fans and they sync for me

rancid lodge Mar 10, 2021, 6:08 PM

sounds good, also my MB has a bit of RGB (it's asus so it's aura sync), how hard would it be to get that working with icue?

going for one back exhaust and three side.
