Yeah , I ain’t complaining for the price tho hahaha 110 bucks
I use that hub, nice to have all the fans in one place with one control
Can I daisy chain these?
And if so how many should I chain to a fan port?
ARCTIC P14 PWM PST CO - 140 mm Case Fan with PWM Sharing Technology (PST), Pressure-optimised, Dual Ball Bearing for Continuous Operation, Computer, 200-1700 RPM - Black https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07H3NWBDR/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_CR4JVC6JWNJ58NG44KK4?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
3-5 per PWM port. best to stick with 3
Hmm, does the fans on the aio power off of the aio port or need a fan port?
Need a fan port typically
Pump goes on the AIO header
Honestly
Get the deepcool hub
Plug into the CPU fan header
plug all the fans into the hub
Then control fan speeds with CPU fan curve
I do my case that way, works great
Wait so you can put 10 on 1 port if you use a hub?
Oh, I don’t know if I have enough sata power then...
Also makes for clean wiring
You only need 1 sata power connector
Most PSU's come with 5-6 at least
Yeah but I got 4 maybe 6 drives and an aio
What power supply
That hub connects to only one Sata buuut I’ve got a sugestion
Enermax revolution df 850
you'll have at least 8 sata power connectors
These dongles that you connect 2 fans into a single header
You have 12 sata power connectors lol
Yeah those work but then you need multiple fan profiles in BIOS all matching, hard to control with temperature.
Ohhh
So the deepcool and the Arctic hubs are about the same, should I match brand to Dan?
Fans?
Nah
I run corsair fans
Deepcool hub
Only thing that matters is they are all PWM
4 pin
I know the fans I’m buying are but I don’t know about the Arctic freezer 420mm
sexy
is there any difference between the asus rog strix g15 and the asus rog scar 15
(the models with the same specs)
Segxy cable management
Link to the aio I got picked out
Is this pwm or Whateever you said for the hub control 4 pin or whatever
Check this out on @Newegg: Arctic ACFRE00092A Liquid Freezer II 420 - Multi Compatible All-in-One CPU AIO Water Cooler, Compatible with Intel & AMD, Efficient PWM Controlled Pump, Fan Speed: 200-1700 RPM (Controlled via PWM) - https://www.newegg.com/arctic-acfre00092a-water-cooling/p/1YF-000P-001D0?Item=9SIAG7RD3H2135&Source=socialshare&cm_mmc=snc-social-_-sr-_-9SIAG7RD3H2135-_-03162021
Could be better but eh. Good enough for something I never see XD
yes those are PWM
says right in the description
😉
True Xd im not big on cable management either is something for cleaning convenience
Yeah I use m.2 so took out the SSD and HDD holders
Ok am I missing something here?
Case
Mobo
Ram
Storage
Aio
Fans
CPU
Fan hub
Psu
I have a gpu already
Wifi or ethernet mobo
Wait that was for me right?
Windows key
Yes
I have windows tied to my account already
Ohhh
So yeah you are good to go
If you live in an area with lots of power surge or outages
Get an UPS
And go to #peripherals-and-displays to take smart decisions
I had to learn to love my k95 xt for the price
Don’t have the money for one yet and I only have outages during hurricanes
Good so be careful in hurricane season
Delete driver and restart pc
Downqload drivers from motherboard website
Or that
I would always just get a separate PCIe card for wifi tbh
I’m having a bad issue with a tp link wifi adapter , some asistance would be apreciated
WHY\
Randomly disconnects
whhaaaaa my wifi is 45 mb/s lmfao
heh
lol
Signal stregnth?
Wifi 300, AC or ?
External antennas?
My router 20mbps download and 5mbps upload
What
The wifi works well with all my devices
what modem then
Mine is satelite wifi
Ah
still, might be a modem setting or an adapter setting but I need to know exactly what they are
Let me check the modem
good enough, lemme dig
Well then
Only manual I can find for the modem involves some app I'm not going to download lol
Make sure both the modem and WiFi card are set to use WPA2 and also Wireless N
Sketchy files ?
Let me boot my pc give me a minute
Please give me the app name it might be useful for me
it's here with the QR code https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/display/UM/hAP+lite+TC
Did it work or what LOL!
wpa2 is set on the router , how do I check the wireless adapter?
Well, if it's on the router
and you're connected
You're using it lol
Check wireless N tho
Could someone tell me how to install windows on my pc, I already downloaded it onto the usb and put into the pc. This is where I am
how? im sorry im very new to dealing with pc's
install now and choose your boot storage as new
Right click wireless symbol bottom right - click Change Adapter options - Right click WiFi adapter choose properties - Click Configure - Advanced Tab - check wireless mode
o
Click Install Now
Ok
Right click wireless symbol bottom right - click Change Adapter options - Right click WiFi adapter choose properties - Click Configure - Advanced Tab - check wireless mode
@muted patio what I do now
Full guide with screen pics https://www.itechguides.com/how-to-install-windows-10-step-by-step-with-pictures/
so what should I put
What are they?
Yours is different from mine
Check Transmit power also
be sure it's on highest
Mixed mode Protection RTS/CTS enabled if you have it
That's fine
its working for now
i suspect it's the modem causing the drops
IDK what to recommend for satellite
If DSL or cable, that's different but I have no experience with satellite
i understand might as well change that crap wifi
yes
if you want to start installing, press install
and if you have a key or not will change the proccess
so should I get like a 60 feet ethernet?
You could add a WAP to the modem and disable the Modem WiFi and get a better signal. SOmething like this would work well: https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-AC1200-Wireless-Access-WAC104-100NAS/dp/B01LFSDZCU/ref=sr_1_5?_encoding=UTF8&c=ts&dchild=1&keywords=Computer+Networking+Wireless+Access+Points&qid=1615940246&s=pc&sr=1-5&ts_id=1194486
its far from my pc (not too far to cause issues)
bro that’s installing windows
isn't that what you're doing???
no remember the drivers
LMAO
You downloaded them?
Idk how
Right click them, choose extract
open
run the Setup inside each folder
reboot when done
thx for help @muted patio
You could run an ethernet to the WiFi access point and make it more central for your devices
instead of running a cable to your PC
Sorry, this was meant for you. Step by step with pics https://www.itechguides.com/how-to-install-windows-10-step-by-step-with-pictures/
I don’t see an extract option for the one I just showed u
For the INF
Extracting is the copying all the files right? @muted patio
OH for the INF?
save that one for later, do the others
then restart and check device manager again
what board again?
usually with gigabyte boards you need pcie wifi or usb to try
and update
cause it needs intel.net
B460m Pro4 @muted patio
yes that
yes
extract
install
@little osprey you had a question? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Ff8XBc
Nah, you're too low level to post links yet
IDK where you're getting a 6800XT for $650 tho
Otherwise seems good, let me check the PSU real quick
I mean, you can trim costs certainly
Fans are spendy
MB also a tad spendy
Everything else seems MSRP
i don't see anything out of line
All fits together well
Right
Could trim off another $10 on the PSU also but we're talking kinda pennies in the overall cost
For an AIO
Could save a little and go Arctic Freezer II or EK 240mm
those are $120 and cool better
But that's kinda nit picking
$10 here, $10 there, not a huge amount
not sure TBH, gotta check
ik lightning node is like, trustabel
No hub on the EK
ok
Like I said, looks fine, could save a little bit here and there but it's good
well maybe i can get h100i cappelix tbh, ml's are better than ll's and still look decent
and comes with commander core
but are ml's good? bc im not ENTIRly sure
@muted patio
how to extract?
I copied it to my usb from my laptop
Then plugged the usb into my pc build
Do i copy it to the desktop
run the Setup inside
Is it bad that it isn’t zipped
@muted patio
What do I do with the “mup” and “IntelMEFWVer.dll”
this gone?
Ick, k, wait until you get internet to update windows
Windows will need updates too
yes
#build-pics Any tips for my setup?
@muted patio
Will a gpu power on if it’s not connected to the mobo but had the pcie power plugged in?
doubt it.
No
Hmm, I don’t know how I’m gonna test this gpu then.
do you not have a computer?
Yeah, but it doesn’t have enough down time to test this one
yo can someone help me put together a pcpp list for $1350 or help me find a good $1460 prebuilt since prebuilts come with an os
usd btw
If you have ever used a new pc before windows may be linked to your Microsoft account
Windows updates. All of them
Plug video into mothervoard. If you get a picture, go to bios and swt videonout to pcie gpu.
Ok so this is what ibdid
Record the battery for 10 min
Than plugged it back in
Than tried plugging the vga into the gpu didn’t work
but lugged it into the mobo didn’t work
Nothing showed up
Hey vintage my guy 🙂
Tet different output on video card
I was looking for u but u changed ur pic
Dvi or hdmi

Oh
Yah
You said u did?
He said it worked
Ahhhhh lol
Uh
Should I try in the black one
Which one
Would it work in black??
Can’t rn I am about to sleep
But
So is it mobo or gpu u have a clue???
Or should I contact msi
@muted patio
@muted patio just dm me if u know I gtg cya thx for the help
Dinner time lol. Bbiab
Ok just dm me when u can @muted patio
Should I try to put it on another pc that’s older
????
Dm let me know
Pc that can play AAA games at around 80fps on high settings for around 1200$? Asking for a friend
wealthy country gamers: No9ooo0000 80fps its not enough
latin American gamers: FINALLY 25fps
Reason: Bad word usage
a 10400f and 3060ti would do that easy
What about a ryzen cpu?
mhmm
if you really were worried about upgradability you could do z490 or 590
just keep in mind even a b550 or x570 will only work up to ryzen 5k stuff, as ryzen 6k will be a whole new socket
am5
10400f with 560 is probably the way to go unless you want to do overclockable cpu in the future
mhmm
Here’s a list I made https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BLKgxc
Any thoughts @desert gulch ?
3600 ram overkill for Intel, if 3200 is cheaper go for it
yeah looks good with the changes vintage suggested
The realism in this statement
its true ngl i have a thinkpad A475 and it barely makes it to 30 fps on warthunder in min settings
Yep I understand, I have some friends and families just buying PC parts when they travel to the US and back
well at least you can find cheaper gxt 1080 in mercado libre
Is there any alternatives for the 3060ti that are more available?
No
imposible
Some youtube channels/servers might be accurate in telling stock
least i can give is 1080 at 9k mxn
Should I build my PC without it then for now until I can find it in stock
Ehh I would get gpu first
^
Personally
No one really likes Intel 630 graphics
If you have something that works already just stick with that until you can get the whole deal
Me who had integrated for almost my entire life 😦
Oop-
eehh APU gang here
Can run Roblox, Minecraft, and kinda csgo and that was fine with me when I was a 10 year old
most intensive game that holded in a amd pro 12 is fallout 4
I had PC/laptops with dedicated graphics by either AMD Radeon discrete graphics or Nvidia MX150 level graphics
Now I just need a new monitor to finish it
now i think about it what happens if you combine an APU with a GPU
like a good APU but a crappy GPU
Basically Vega 3
Should I go for the 3060ti founders edition or just the generic version, or whichever I can get?
i dont know a lot about pc's but i think i found some parts that are a balance between cost efficient and decent
you got a link to the list?
i have them as seperate links. i dont have them in a list unfortunatly
hmm id put them in pcpartpicker.com if i were you
hey
hey
fart on it
rate this build
Computer out of computer
Lmfao I'm upgrading from an i5 4200m to a 5600x and 3070
From 30 fps in valorant to 300
damn mad funny dawg
intel i5 10600k = ryzen 5 5600x ?
who u said to
u
bro
Intel 10400F>5600x
5600x easily beats 5600x
what
maybe you mean 3600xt
ur right my bad I confused 3600 w 5600
but
10600K is better tho than 5600

my mistake 150 $ cheaper
80 % of tha games tested 10400f was close to 5 5600x
so 10400f is tha best midrange budget cpu for gaming
see for yourself
?????
you can't compare them lmao
Try to pair a 10400f with a 3080
see what happens
its with the rtx 3080

80 % of tha games tested 10400f was close to 5 5600x by 10-5 fps
yikes....
but its close in 5-10 fps in 80% of tha games
Literally every other game at all settings has the 5600x beating it
and its 150 $ cheaper
???
10400f is the definition of a bottleneck on a 3080
"80% of games"
like maybe 50
holy hell this thing is biased
3800mhz ram ran with a 10400f
......
yikes
LOL
?
You also really won't be getting an amd chip if all you're doing is gaming
lets check it out with the rtx 2060 s
00:10 CSGO 01:30 Fortnite 02:50 PUBG 04:10 GTAV 05:30 Overwatch
Compare EFps: https://www.userbenchmark.com/EFps/,,10400F,_,,5600X,_CSGO,2060S,,#
https://www.userbenchmark.com/UserRun/29707091
CPU: Intel Core i5-10400F - 94.4%
GPU: Nvidia RTX 2060S (Super) - 108.5%
SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus NVMe PCIe M.2 500GB - 307.7%
RAM: Corsair...
only 4 % +this is nothin
so i would really rather to buy 10400f
Yet again
a bad comparison
3200c16 10400f vs a 3200c16 5600x
3600+ is where 5600x shines
na
3800 is ideal for 5600x
you can easily get that on most 3600 kits
3200 mhz is best for 10400
That benchmark is only benching old games that r optimized for CPUs like 10400
Also true
and don't go "oh i don't want to overclock"
3800mhz is good for ryzen 7 5800x and i 7 10700/k
No
just 5000 series in general
u do for amd too
smh
10700k will run just fine on 3200c14/3600c16.....
Lol. if you can reach the fclk. I know zen2 has a hard time hitting 1900 fclk
Unless you want desync.
Im using 3600 cl 18 on 10700k its working fine
well ryzen 7 5800x easily beats i7 10700 no dout
3600c18 or 3600c16 iirc.
doesn't mean you should
Usually 3600c16.
3600c18 is awful lol.
Should of bought even 3200c16
meh
its intel
Well for ryzen its awful.
Intel, depending on board, it is capped
3600c16 is too close in price to buy 3600c18
so yea 3600 mhz is perfect for i7 10700
They dont sell cl 16 3600 in my country
I don't remembering sharing my cocaine with you.
ew
well h 470 for i5 10400 is good and z 490 good for i7 and higher
kek. c18. Ive almost have enough to swap out my c18 for c16 if needed.
?????
But since it clocks at 3733c18 it beats 3200c16
b560 for 10400
not h470
Lol
My brain hurts
I don't know much about intel, but that sure as hell doesn't sound right lol
ofir try overclocking your ram
unless its a horrible bin i swear you can get c16
After the bios update it oofed my ram.
ok
b560 or b460
b560
This is right?
b560
b560
b460 doesn't let you do 2666mhz+ ram
Ah.
Pretty much wish i had flashback.
Could downgrade bios. Ive been trying right now to setup asus crash free.
Reason: Duplicated text
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Too many infractions
lmao
my pc is with h270 wow
so old
i mean like 3-4 years
wanna upgrade to b 460 or z 490
k
tbh just get b560
and 11400f if u want budget 6 cores
then pair it with like, 1050ti or whichever card there is that's not scalped
it does
i3/i5 is locked to 2666mhz
i7/i9 is 2933mhz
@little osprey that is correct
rely on what?
That chart
is there a ray tracing alternative on the 6xxx series of radeon cards?
i'm split between getting the 3060ti or 6700xt, so i wanna know what i'm missing out on (if anything)
Rx 6000 series have ray tracing but rtx is better
you are buying a 260$+ cpu with a below spec motherboard that is same price as a better one
I'd go evo for tlc
whats that?
triple layer cell
3 bits per cell
instead of qlc
which is 4 bits per cell
tlc offers better read/write natively on flash
and better reliability
so the QVO is bad?/
so the thing is when i went to buy the parts and returned home i found out he gave be a 2TB QVO, and i just called him rn and he said that he doesnt have any EVO's so is that bad?
i feel sad 😦
yeah but will it still be fast in games and other stuff? or will it feel like a harddrive
tlc vs qlc is completely on a ssd vs ssd level debate
both will destroy a hard drive
There is not a difference really in SSD vs SSD when it comes to loading games.
Even with a 905P it's like a 2-4 second difference.
You won't see the difference in loading games
QVO most likely
alright then
hopefully one day in egypt they would release a 2tb NVMe and i would buy it and put it in my pc
the 870 QVO has faster random writes which is what you want
can someone make me a build for $600
looking to game on it give or take like $50 on budget
delete
Oh
But it also says this
Wait
This
Now what
Please help I
Added a new SATA SSD
Why is it starting
This happened after I removed the battery
Is a RTX 3060 and a Ryzen 7 3700x reasonable for a $1400 build?
the ryzen 9?
Ryzen 5 5600x
oh ok
@muted patio help
An xbox
Yep 800 is kinda the baseline
Rn it is
And gl with graphics cards lol
To get a dgpu build it is at least
Even before crisis 80p was kinda baseline
I wouldn't say that
@desert gulch help me
I don't know
Im not that good with software stuff
I mean it won’t let me do anything
I'm a lot better with psyichal hardware
That would round up to about 800 tho if all new parts
It says pc didn’t start correctly
Didn't use to
When market was decent
Try advanced options
That's what i meant
I had a friend build a pc for 600 with a 580 and 3100
rtx 2060 withi3 10100??
Huh?
@fossil cedar I did
But after I took o it the battery this all happened
And I put in a SATA SSD
Ok I’ll try in a bot and @ u ok???
please dont ping me
What screen shows after you hit advanced options
I dont want my inbox to be sullied by the presence of a ping from you
Oof scrap?
can you boot into windows
press continue
Try Troubleshoot
Okay
It doesn’t work
is it looping
Yah
How
live usb
u need anotehr pc
why does he need to reinstall
it boot looping
oof
So I can’t choose a different option
there are ways to fix that without a reinstall
How
I need Len
I was going to use this pc to download windows 10 on a usb
Than this happened
So what do I have to do from here
try booting into safe mode real quick
hold shift on boot
Which boot
windwos

Also if she tells you not to ping her, may be a good idea not to
Not good with tech
Ohh ok
Which one is boot option
This is what pops up when I pick troubleshoot
advanced
startup settings
press enter
Hi there I was wounded if some can tell me what would be better for streaming, video recording and editing, gaming and can handle VR I’m new to computers so I was seeing if AMD or intel was better
whats your total budget? Most of the stuff you mentioned is going to rely on a good video card, not necessarily a good CPU
press 5
I I did
I’m looking at a budget from 500-1000
Depends on budget
1000 isn't that much for what you're expecting
Ok I mean I can save that’s no problem do you have any recommendations for what I’m look for cause I’m very new to computer building 😅
Something along the lines of a i5 10400f and rtx 3060 probs
Ok
considering a 3060Ti has an amazing NVENC encoder and you can get a 10400f for that price, I'd say its pretty good
But i mean idk if you could fit that i your budget
Well yeah but 3060 tis are so rare especially for 400 atm
mmmmmnot really
Way better value tho
might take you a second but they arent particularly 'rare'
Yeah ik
3060 is like 2060s territory
I've been waiting since they came out
you just arent lucky
There's hardly any tho, at least in eu 3060 tis are going for the equivalent of 700$
I knew this might start a argument but what difference bettween AMD and intel
Nothing really they both make cpus, intel i5 10400f is better value then amds i5 competitor, but amd is winning at the high end atm
not much
both are CPUs
some are just better than others, and some are better value
Ok cool like is one fast or something
both are
They trade blows
Ok
Quick question why isn’t it letting me install windows 10 on a usb do I have to have windows 10 on the counter first than do it
Yep cpus from 100$ to 850 and that's just the consumer cpus
You have to have a version of Windows
Not on the pc
Is your other pc a mac/linux
on AMD's side right now is the 5600x, 5800x, 5900x, 5950x, and on Intel's side right now is the 10400/f/k, 10500/f/k, 10600/f/k, 10700/f/k, 10800/f/k, 10850/f/k, and 10900/f/k
F means no integrated graphics and k means it can overclock btw
put it on the USB
I know
That is what comes up
I was explaining for the guy that asked
I'm aware lol
Sorry thought i turned off ping
Ok after see what you guys are say I might be aiming to high for a computer build so how about a streaming and gaming computer
So do I get windows 10 first than do it on the usb or do the usb thing first
An i5 10400f still and a rtx 3060 ti if you can find one for around 400
which isnt particularly difficult
Ok so what that in layman’s terms sorry
Ehhh lets try build you a pc part picker list so you can remember hold on, you are in the us right?
Yup
tfw B560 Pro4 being scalped
Oof really ?
$270 according to PCPP
going with the mATX one as a placeholder
for a good streaming/VR PC, thats the best I can do
tbh i can prolly make it cheaper
try
segotep PSU $15 cheaper
Good PSU
no
only one that shows up when I type segotep
Think their limit was 1000 mb 16gb instead
True yeag
made it cheaper https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cJsrCz, it looks worse aesthetically tbh so if you can, go with sara's list and add in the segotep psu and cheaper ram that's rated for the same speeds
metallic gear also has a relatively cheap lineup that look alr
Oof. Bios screwed with my ram after update
unluck
wtf?

sure it isnt just a visual glitch in task manager or whatever?
Cant even run 1800 fclk
Without going, “system instability, posted in safe mode”
Why didnt i get the tuf pro
Atleast you can revert bios with flashback
Nothing wrong with 3602. WOrking great for me and more stability than 3405
Because the main thing is, updated from 3202
I used to atleast be able to run 3600
Now xmp goes oof
And cant even run ram at stock speed
2060 hashrate???
And there is just no way to revert bios.
XMP isn't stock speed.
Ive tried reflashing
Shouldn't affect OS boot

Nicehash calc should give you a rough estimate of how much you can make with it anyway if you want ti check

Tried ezflash.
I was only able to go back to 3405
Tried rewriting with afudos
I guess the only easy way is with flashblack
Back*
afudos wat
Its a bios rewriter
I'd make 3.88$ cad day, over 1000 per year
reflash 3602
At this point, im just debating if flashback is the only possible way.
1000 per year until Eth fails again
still free money, and I don't need to pay for elec bill
ok then
Is there just no easy way to revert bios.
3.88 cents/day wtf is your electric bill?
Without the fact of flashback. After 3405 it seems the system no longer can revert bios past that
meant 3.88 dollars
Ahhh
lol
The only thing besides flashback i can think of is the original cd disk
Either that, or the board could never even run 1800 in the first place
what board, CPU?
bruh what
Wait
you think that board cant run 1800 fclk?
