alright

wanton cliff
#

WERE YOU HERE BEFORE KENZIE WAS BANNED?

warm swift
#

well thank you so much Mando, Sara, Fal'Cie i appreciate it

wanton cliff
#

FAL'CIE

little osprey
#

it lowers my volume all the way down

potent portal
#

I think so yeah

little osprey
#

and gets rid of mic input

wanton cliff
#

omfg

#

you dont even know who kenzie is

little osprey
#

Everytime i boot it has 1 of the static short bursts

#

only after i changed mobo/cpu

wanton cliff
#

all the time we've been talking about her as an inside joke and you dont know who we are referencing

potent portal
little osprey
#

b350/2700x to b550/5900x

little osprey
#

because it only happens after i boot when i screenshare/snipping/alt prt

potent portal
#

DDU then, but still check cables, doesn't hurt

#

I've been here a little over a month I think, maybe 2 months? Was it before that?

wanton cliff
#

idk tbh

#

01/10/2021 was her last message

potent portal
#

I would have been a couple weeks after that then

#

Assuming the mods didn't do the "delete everything from the past month" option when they banned her

wanton cliff
#

they didnt, I dont believe

#

they were banned for using emotes to evade a mute which they didnt know they had on lmao

potent portal
#

Clever, yet idiotic at the same time. Impressive.

wanton cliff
#

thats kenzie for you

#

hence why this emote was named after her

#

wait where did it go

#

this one

#

but they changed the emote name

#

it used to be : kenzie:

potent portal
#

I'm looking over the search results for kenzie... holy hell every one of these messages is a complaint somehow

wanton cliff
#

kekw

#

Kenziegaming115

#

she was an odd one

potent portal
wanton cliff
#

xD

#

Lotion was annoying too

#

but before my time here

brittle tinsel
#

When are new egg shuffles? Monday-Friday or what?

potent portal
#

If they have stock, yes weekdays

#

Some days no shuffle

wanton cliff
#

They’ve been happening more often lately

#

On weekends and fridays

#

Also

#

Staying at Aunt’s house

#

Her years-old ‘work’ computer has a GTX 680

#

Crazy stuff, man

#

Also 8 gigs of DDR3

#

Can’t remember the CPU

#

Lemme check real quick

#

TFW spinning rust

#

i5-3330

fossil cedar
#

Oof

potent portal
#

E-waste

#

The 680 would probably sell for like $150 though lol

wanton cliff
#

Thing is, it’s a ‘work’ computer from how many years ago

potent portal
#

Checked with ebay, common sales around $125

wanton cliff
#

Wow

potent portal
#

Sometimes $200+

wanton cliff
#

This market is crazy

#

Dell sold it to her as a work computer, not a gaming computer

#

And yet

#

i5-3330 and GTX 680

#

This was around the time the 680 came out btw

potent portal
#

Yeah, that would have been a great combo for media creation back in the day

wanton cliff
#

She is a teacher

#

She teaches 5th grade science

#

Nowadays she sometimes uses it to check banking stuff

potent portal
#

Let me guess... 2012 processor... It's a Windows 7 right?

wanton cliff
#

10 actually

#

She might have upgraded it tho

potent portal
#

Ah upgraded

wanton cliff
#

I’ll have to ask

#

And check the version (32 bit vs 64)

potent portal
#

They offered free upgrades when 10 came out so probably did that

#

If it's 8GB definitely 64bit

wanton cliff
#

So sure?

potent portal
#

Unless task manager reports 8GB(3.5 usable) yes

#

32bit is limited to ~3.5GB

wanton cliff
#

I’m pretty sure it said 7.9 usable but I’ll check

granite barn
#

should i get these for my pc?

potent portal
#

Definitely, you could shave whole tenths of a second off your benchmarks

granite barn
#

Thank you

wanton cliff
#

Those look pretty fresh ngl

granite barn
#

they are 50 dollars

brittle tinsel
#

What is a good price for a rx 570?

wanton cliff
#

Cheap

#

$200 maybe

#

At most

brittle tinsel
#

Think I could get away with $300?

covert crypt
#

Can someone tell me what fan this is on the side?

wanton cliff
#

Define ‘side’

#

Also gross mouse

#

Whoever took that photo should be ashamed of owning it

#

And a 120mm AIO

#

Double gross

brittle tinsel
#

I think he is talking about these

wanton cliff
#

Btw @potent portal 2.8gb usable

potent portal
#

uh Usable, or free?

#

That's free space lol

wanton cliff
#

Wait that says cached

potent portal
#

Take the In use and add the available

#

Besides on the left pane it says 7.9

Hey so I’m building a pc with my friend. Do we need to all the motherbroad screws in? There is one we can’t get in for the life of us due to the motherboard’s heat sink. The standoff is install just not one screw

muted patio
#

Don't need all of them

flint sapphire
#

should be fine

muted patio
#

The ones on the edge are the most important

#

IE by the power connectors and ram

exotic bison
#

It’s the one by the io shield that is being a problem

brittle tinsel
#

The Arctic aio doesn’t have fan wires?

muted patio
#

It does

muted patio
exotic bison
#

Awesome thanks so much

brittle tinsel
muted patio
#

Yes?

brittle tinsel
#

Heatsync or whatever it’s called

muted patio
#

To power the AIO pump

#

Fans have separate cables

flint sapphire
#

its probably just the pump wire, the little fan also gets powered by it

woven summit
#

Sup guys

#

How much do you think I can sell a Ryzen 3 2200g 1050ti and 16gb ram for?

#

Like a full pc build with those specs

brittle tinsel
flint sapphire
#

not much, check ebay and such to find similar specced items

I mean come on, I’ve sold pictures to people in Vegas $60 for a photo on a “flying carpet” (green screen and carpet lol) and $80-$100 for a video on a flying carpet. It’s funny watching people pay that much for a photo

still roostBOT
#
notorious griefer popbob#3802 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

woven summit
#

I spent $250 in total to build it lol

#

It’s gonna be $350 when I buy the 1050ti which is coming in the post in a few days

#

I got it for $100

#

Idk if I should sell or keep tbh

#

I already have a 1080ti build

#

Good price tho

uncut pelican
#

you could probs profit off of it

brittle tinsel
#

How close to i5 3570 or 4570 is the 2200g?

#

We paid $600 for a 1060, i5 4570 build and it can handle high end games

fossil cedar
#

Ouch, that's a not good deal for 600$ thats an 8 year old cpu

exotic bison
#

So the pc I’m building with my friend will turn on but we can’t get any picture. Any ideas

muted patio
#

Turn on as in fans spin and RGB is on? What motherboard

#

Just because fans spin doesn't mean it has POSTed

exotic bison
#

It’s a msi b550 mpg gaming plus. And the rgb fans and the gpu light up

muted patio
#

What CPU?

exotic bison
#

Using a ryzen 3600x right now but it will be a 5600x

muted patio
#

Ok, not a BIOS issue then

exotic bison
#

Could the motherboard be bad?

stoic island
#

Any debug LEDs?

muted patio
#

Not yet, checking for DEBUG LEd's

stoic island
#

There should be some

exotic bison
#

We’re would they be at

stoic island
#

Above 24pin

muted patio
#

I'm checking the manual for them

halcyon turret
#

Help my pc is not putting out a output but the led are turning on

muted patio
stoic island
#

When you turn it on, which light does it stay on?

exotic bison
#

The one closest to the power pin

brittle tinsel
muted patio
exotic bison
#

Yep

muted patio
#

What drives do you have installed?

stoic island
#

So storage device or actually booting

frank stirrup
exotic bison
#

A nvme and a ssd

muted patio
#

Which NVME?

#

and in what slot?

brittle tinsel
stoic island
#

@exotic bison also, need to make sure, display cable is plugged into the GPU and not eh motherboard, right?

exotic bison
#

Samsung and it the slot with the heat spreader. Yeah I check that first thing it’s plugged into the gpu

muted patio
stoic island
#

Can you unplug any drive you're not using? (Any other than the m.2 drive)

exotic bison
#

It didn’t come with a screw for the nvme and yeah I can unplug the other drive

stoic island
#

The motherboard should've came with a screw for the NVMe drive

muted patio
#

This is an issue

#

It's probs not seated correctly

stoic island
#

(drive doesn't come with the screw, the motherboard does)

muted patio
#

Screw and standoff come in a separate plastic package usually in the bottom of the MB box under the cardboard tray

#

If no standoff that's an issue also

exotic bison
#

It has a standofff and just found the screw

stoic island
#

Nice

muted patio
#

Good, reseat it and screw it down

exotic bison
#

Still nothing should I unplug the the other ssd

muted patio
#

Yes, only leave the NVME in

stoic island
#

Yea

muted patio
#

Also, which eexact Samsung?

#

SATA NVME exist

stoic island
#

uh

#

you mean sata m.2

muted patio
#

Yeah lol

stoic island
#

2.5in nvme exists but

#

that's a whole other thing

muted patio
#

Yeah, I meant M.2. shhhhhhh

exotic bison
#

It’s a 2.5 ssd the Samsung 860 eco

muted patio
#

Mmmmm

exotic bison
#

Evo

muted patio
#

That's SATA

#

Needs to be in the other slot, M2_2

exotic bison
#

What do you mean other slot?

muted patio
#

There are 2 M.2 slots

#

Needs to be in the bottom one

stoic island
#

(Vintage they're talking about the 2.5in 860evo, not the m.2 860evo)

muted patio
#

ohhhhhh

#

Missed the 2.5

#

What M.2 do you have?

exotic bison
#

The Samsung 970 evo

muted patio
#

Yeah, do what Mr1111 suggested and unplug the SATA drive and leave the M.2

exotic bison
#

Still nothing

#

And it’s still the bios light

stoic island
#

Reset cmos maybe

exotic bison
#

How do I do that

stoic island
#

works for intel and amd

#

universal, Intel just happens to have a page on it

#

battery method

exotic bison
#

I never plug the gpu back🙄

stoic island
#

uhhhh

muted patio
#

The GPU power?

exotic bison
#

Yeah

granite barn
#

can i download windows onto a flashdrive on a chromebook

exotic bison
#

Ok I will try the cmos next time we work on it he had to go

minor wing
#

Where would I plug in this rgb cable from the fan on the heat sink?

muted patio
#

what motherboard?

minor wing
#

B550 tomahawk

muted patio
#

Bottom of the board, JRGB1 header

#

Bottom left of center, 4 pin header

#

In between JAUDIO and Sys_FAN5

minor wing
#

Ok I see it

#

Thanks for the help

muted patio
#

YW

#

There's also one above the USB3 connector

#

JRGB2 if that makes it cleaner install wise

minor wing
#

Yea ima use that one

grizzled wagon
#

can someone do a gaming build of just the pc for about $1k?

#

just best for money

full atlas
#

Should I cop, paint the middle heatsink cover white, paint the fan holders white, and switch the fans with my white p12s and replace my pb240 with it?

muted patio
#

PB240 probably cools better TBH

viral ore
#

would look poggers

#

wouldnt perform as good as other coolers in the price range tho

#

what cpu you slapping this on?

muted patio
#

Whoa, that thing is 53 DB

viral ore
#

oh damn, didnt even see that 20 dollar mir

#

for 30 dollars, thats a steal

viral ore
muted patio
#

Oh yeah def

#

I looked up a review and stock fans are 53DB

#

That's just obnoxious

viral ore
#

oh, also you can sell the two 120mm corsair fans for like 20 bux on fb market lol

#

yeah thats a yikes

ancient wraith
#

Anyone know what this noise is from my pc

thas what i did

delicate salmon
#

I'm confused on plugging in the pci-e from a evga 600w 80+ bronze psu into a msi b550m pro-vdh wifi

muted patio
#

You don't, that goes into the GPU

#

CPU pOwer goes into the motherboard

delicate salmon
#

I have a asus gtx 1050 ti

muted patio
#

I don't think that has an external power connector. Which means you really don't need the PCI-E power cable then.

brittle tinsel
#

I just want to make sure I have every thing for building a pc (first time complete builder, I have taken many many prebuilt apart)

Parts I have on my shelf:
Ram
Storage drives
CPU
Gpu
Psu
Fan hub
Thermal paste
Mobo

Parts arriving tomorrow:
Case
Fans
Aio
Boot drive.

stoic island
#

Looks pretty good for now, I assume you got a monitor?

brittle tinsel
#

Yeah a few, I’ve got mnk mic and headset, facecam too if you want everything lol

#

I had a pc before but the surge killed it

stoic island
#

Fair

glass elm
#

if i'm building a general use PC (some gaming, coding, work, etc) that i'm not sure when i'm going to be able to get a GPU for, would it be better to go for Ryzen 5 3400G (4c/8t but supposed to have really good iGPU) or an intel i5 10600k (6c/12t but not as good iGPU)? or what cpu would be best in terms of good graphics capability as well as good productivity performance?

#

also if you use a dGPU with a cpu with an iGPU, do they work together for the graphics or does the dGPU do all the work?

stoic island
#

dGPU would do all the work

#

The thing is, if you're planning on gaming on it without a dGPU, 3400g. If you will get a dGPU soon, 10600k

#

Not only is 3400g 4c8t, it's also worse in terms of single thread performance, all it's got is a beefy iGPU

#

Well, not even that beefy compared to something like a 4650g, but a decent one

glass elm
#

ah ok i think that makes sense

#

thanks!

earnest olive
#

consider the i5-11500

stoic island
#

@earnest olive Isn't Intel still using uhd630?

earnest olive
#

11500 and up uses xe 32 eu

#

it's like 50% better

#

still loses a bit to vega 11 but you can get 6-8c with it

#

far better than the 3400g on the cpu side of course

#

if adding gpu in the future

#

if gaming is more important get 3400g though

#

vega 11 still wins gpu battle

stoic island
#

hmm

fossil cedar
#

depends how long youre willing to go without a dgpu as well i guess

earnest olive
#

ideally get it on a b550 board with unofficial zen+ support

#

so you could upgrade to ryzen 5000 and get pcie 4 and stuff

#

a lot of b550 boards unofficially support zen and zen+

fossil cedar
#

also if you live near a micro center you can get a 10700k for the price of a 10600k on newegg

earnest olive
#

honestly would not consider 10th gen if they plan to game on the igpu for any amount of time

fossil cedar
#

yes thats granted if they only want to do light gaming for less than a month or so

earnest olive
#

could also try to grab a 4600g though

formal karma
#

Is there an effective difference between the 1660/super/Ti for gaming? My goal is 60fps 1080p and nothing more.

Please DM me im on mobile.

fossil cedar
#

depends on the game youre playing but not worth the price increase to the super/ti usually

#

also pls dont pay like 400 for a 1660

formal karma
#

I mean I was gonna buy a pre-built because I'm in dire need but everyone has bought out all the 1660 super and 2000s withing 500 miles of me.

And as far as games. I mostly play medium to low on the zontac gtx 560 I have so im used to not playing on ultra

potent portal
#

The ti is about 15-20% better than the 1660. The super is almost as good as the ti, only a couple % lower.

formal karma
#

Good to know. Anyone got recommendations for a pre-built that's sub 1600 USD (for the tower itself) and I can actually get? Or is that another chat in here? My current unit isn't going to cut it in about a month.

potent portal
muted patio
#

3060 wow

potent portal
#

You think that one's good? Check out the 3060 ti on this one

muted patio
#

a520 tho

#

bet 3000 mhz ram too

potent portal
#

Could spring a little more on CPU to fix the mobo

muted patio
#

NZXT at least uses good boards and ram

fossil cedar
#

i thought they stopped making a boards after the a 320 oof

potent portal
#

They only skipped the A420, I wonder why? 🤔

formal karma
#

That Nzxt build catches my eye. Seems to be missing a powerfully tho lol.

fossil cedar
#

Power supply they have is out of stock but next step up is probs less than 20$

#

Leaves you more room for upgrades in future too

formal karma
#

Hmmm true.

little osprey
muted patio
#

Single channel ram tho

#

😉

#

But not terrible

potent portal
#

That's why I didn't say I recommend it but yeah not too bad for the price

muted patio
#

Dell usually has a 2x8GB DIMM option for no extra charge tho?

#

Or are they charging for that now

potent portal
#

Nope still free, I just overlooked it

#

Revised

potent portal
little osprey
#

yeah I know but I love aio couse it looks clean lol . I recently RMAd my aio and got gammax 400 and it's surprisingly keeping cool enough lol

#

but it's loud as hell

potent portal
#

If you want a cheap 240 get a ML240L v2, but don't expect to overclock a high power processor on it.

little osprey
#

oh I had ml240 but had some problem and RMAd it . I don't overclocking and using cpu under 40-60% load usually so any decent aio would be enough

#

its 9700k btw

potent portal
#

The v2 has improved fans

dodge it 😎

jagged ember
#

Damn, surprise shell

balmy patio
#

though it's harder now to dodge smh

jagged ember
#

Just teleport behind them

potent portal
#

Hug a wall when turning and it'll hit the wall

jagged ember
#

Oh my god what?

#

You can actually dodge them?

potent portal
#

Yes, or block them with a banana or a shell of your own

uncut pelican
#

I hug walls all the time in fact I'm hugging a wall right now

balmy patio
#

it's not that doable on the switch smh

#

red shells got buffed hard

jagged ember
#

Oh true the banana

#

Never learned how to trail it behind me

#

I guess that's on me

potent portal
#

Hold the button

jagged ember
#

Thanks

potent portal
#

Well, hold down+the button depending on system

jagged ember
#

Now my rear is secure

#

No more surprise shells

balmy patio
#

what if they've got the three rotating red shells 😳

jagged ember
#

Then it wasn't meant to be

Any good power supply recommendations for 850w

earnest olive

How much do they normally run for ?

revo d.f. is always great

How reliable are they ?

so pretty much as good as they get

super great psu

hello

#

looking for help on a general use build

#

2k canadian rubles max budget

#

wants rtx on

potent portal
#

Canadian... Rubles... Uh, I thought Canada was on CAD

jagged ember
#

thinking about a 5600x and a 3060ti

#

yeah its canadian dollars

#

rubles is more fun to say

earnest olive
#

stole that from linus lol

jagged ember
#

absolutely

#

you know what else i stole from linus? this segue to our sponsor

potent portal
#

The build looks good to throw a 3060ti or 3070 in btw, depending on how much they end up being

jagged ember
#

mm

#

what 3060ti models are good?

#

and maybe 3070 models while we're at it

potent portal
#

Avoid the Gigapoop fire starters

jagged ember
#

no gigapoop

#

definitely no msi ventus

potent portal
#

A couple other 3070 models don't use thermal pads too

jagged ember
#

actually, give me the models to avoid

#

that's easier

#

geez, canadian newegg is not great

jagged ember
#

only has like 2 asus model

#

a lotta gigapoop

potent portal
#

Zotac is good for memes but nothing else

jagged ember
potent portal
#

Probably Asus or EVGA best models, since FE isn't available in Cananda

jagged ember
#

gotcha, gotcha

#

thanks!

potent portal
#

That's, of course, assuming you ever get a choice in the matter

#

Just grab what you can tbh. You can fix thermals pretty easily with a $1 set of thermal pads.

jagged ember
#

fair, fair

#

thank you for help

#

i preesh

potent portal
#

Any time

tepid dove
#

Hello!!! Can someone help me out with this build?

potent portal
#

Looks all compatible, it'll work. Wait and see the reviews for 11600k before you decide on that route, it might not be worth the extra $40.

desert gulch
#

I'd also say no reason for that fast of ram

#

3200 ish is great for 10th gen stuff

#

Oh wait he's getting 11th gen

#

Just realized

#

4400 still seems a bit fast tho

potent portal
#

3200 is the Intel sweet spot for price/performance but there will be benefit to using faster, just not as much

desert gulch
#

Mhmm

#

What tier is that psu?

potent portal
#

A

#

But a "low priority" A

#

Just don't push it too hard

desert gulch
#

Ohh so decent enough

#

Are they going gpu at some point do you think?

#

Cause I'd get higher wattage if so

#

Depends on if they get a nice gpu or not

tepid dove
#

thats the idea! I want the rtx 30 series but I refuse to pay scalpers...

desert gulch
#

Then I'd go higher wattage in psu

tepid dove
#

so I dont know when that would be but I guess I would have enough savings to make the PSU upgrade...

desert gulch
#

Nah

#

Id just get a bigger one for now

potent portal
#

If you want to do a 3060ti you're probably ok if you don't overclock with a 550W, but if you want a 3070 you'll want a 650W, 3080 750W

desert gulch
#

Would be way better then getting another one later

#

Yeah I'm guessing they'll oc tho

#

Since it's a k

potent portal
#

You can go cheaper RAM and use the savings for bigger Watts

desert gulch
#

Mhmm

#

Enermax df 850 would be easily attainable with ram savings

#

Tho you wouldn't prolly need an 850

tepid dove
desert gulch
#

Fal what tier is bq 750?

potent portal
#

C tier

desert gulch
#

Oof

#

I wouldn't for that build

#

Id aim b tier or above

jagged ember
#

not that one

#

sad tier

tepid dove
#

hahaha ok ok!

potent portal
#

C tier is "recommended for cheap systems"

desert gulch
#

Mhmm

#

Altho c tier is miles better than a d tier

tepid dove
#

so this one: EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G3

desert gulch
#

Big jump from d tier to c tier

potent portal
#

Tier list is in the pins so you can look for them and reference the list as you search

desert gulch
#

G3 is decent iirc

jagged ember
#

low priority a

desert gulch
#

Here's the list

#

Look for a b tier or higher imo

jagged ember
#

well a is the highest

#

so b or above

desert gulch
#

Yeah

#

Mhmm

potent portal
#

G3 was "low priority" A tier

tepid dove
desert gulch
#

Ye np

jagged ember
#

gold colored ones are epic

potent portal
#

Meaning it won't catch fire but might shut off if you push it too hard

desert gulch
#

Yea

jagged ember
#

just like techies here are epic lmao

#

i realize that was just a coincidence

desert gulch
#

I'd say c tier and higher won't likely catch fire

jagged ember
#

but that's great

desert gulch
#

Since c tier and above mainly has the protections needed

#

But b tier would be good for build

potent portal
#

Yeah but they also tend to have more restrictive protections that trigger on load spikes on C tier

desert gulch
#

There's a great segotep 700 for a decent price rn I think

#

Sub 100 bucks, fully modular, b tier, and 80+ gold rated

#

Iirc

potent portal
#

Revo DF is often recommended here too, great price/performance

desert gulch
#

Mhm

jagged ember
#

revolution DF, noted

desert gulch
#

It's a pog a tier

jagged ember
#

ooh defnitely pog

#

thanks

#

one more question, for 3600mhz ram is cl16 worth 16 dollars more than cl18 timing

desert gulch
#

Ryzen I'm guessing?

jagged ember
#

yep

desert gulch
#

And how many gigs?

jagged ember
#

16gb

desert gulch
#

Hmm which stuff are you comparing?

jagged ember
#

just the ripjaws lol

desert gulch
#

How much for 3600 c16?

jagged ember
#

its 123.99 cad

#

for cl18 its 104.99 cad

#

so it's around 16 dollars usd difference

desert gulch
#

Hmm

#

Do you need the ripjaws?

#

Ballistix might be cheaper

potent portal
#

You can usually overclock a C18 down to 16 easily

jagged ember
#

nope, not in canada

desert gulch
#

I'd say not worth tho tbh

#

Yeah

#

Id go for c18

jagged ember
#

okay, i'll stick with cl18

desert gulch
#

Pog

potent portal
#

I'm running a set of 4133C19 sticks at 3800C14 and I don't even know for sure what the dies are lol. Definitely easy to do 16.

jagged ember
#

damn

#

that's nice speeds

potent portal
#

It comes at the cost of running 1.52 volts but hey, I get the bragging rights lol

desert gulch
#

Damn you daily that?

jagged ember
#

ram go brrr

potent portal

No, I eased off and have it at 16-15-15 at 1.38

DA BABY

little osprey
#

wattage to hash

rich helm

3060ti is 60

little osprey

its more so the hashrate to wattage

the hashrate isn't bad

its the ratio

My 3070 is banging out 61 without a sweat but I want a second GPU now lol

it will vary

It doesn't tho lol

rich helm

mines like 55 hotspot

little osprey

some don't

muted patio

Ye

little osprey
#

one example is 3080 TUF OC and the strix

rich helm
#

idk vram temps cause its a 3060ti

little osprey
#

think i have everything i need now

#

Does afterburner profile stay with fresh install

#

bc it didn't when i changed mobo/cpu

muted patio
#

Fresh Windows install?

#

No

little osprey
#

damnit

#

time to take pictures of my oc stuff

muted patio
#

You just updating to Pro?

little osprey
#

i get a static short burst every time i boot

#

can't screenshare/snipping tool/alt prt screen without constant static bursts

#

I lose mic input completely and the windows audio bar consistently goes down

muted patio
#

X570/AMD?

little osprey
#

b550

muted patio
#

That too

#

which one?

little osprey
#

b350m-a/2700x => b550-e/5900x

muted patio
#

have you tried the latest Beta Bios with agesa 1.2.0.1?

#

Supposed to fix issues like that as well as the dreaded USB bug

little osprey
#

I haven't, think im gonna fresh install anyways because windows is on my HDD and i would like it to be on my ssd

muted patio
#

That's a good reason but if still static issues, update BIOS

little osprey
#

plus i have had it on same install for like nearly 4 years now

sinful vessel
#

if i flashed the bios to the newest one at the time and a newer one came out, would it still boot. Like would the bios I flashed into the mobo still be fine and would it boot?

muted patio
#

Yes

#

You have to manually update/install BIOS

#

Just bcause a new one is released doesn't mean your PC will break/is broken, it's not an auto update like Windows

sinful vessel
#

Ah okay lol

#

thank you

muted patio
#

YW

little osprey
#

This is what the install on the usb should look like right

potent portal
#

Yes

little osprey
#

ok brb

sinful vessel
#

Was just wondering since the whole 5000 series + bios update thing kinda confuses me but so far I got it down, just need a gpu and hope it boots! 😂

Why do you need a 50ft cat5 cable?

Barracuda 2tb doesn't seem to have aged well

WD black is the only 2TB+ 7200 drive, there's equal for cheaper

literally cant find a gpu to put in this pc and i cant get the psu until i know what gpu im getting

desert gulch
#

Yes you can

#

Plan for whatever gpu you wanna get

earnest olive
#

just build the pc without gpu first

#

get cpu with integrated graphics

desert gulch
#

Then get a psu for that ahead

#

Mhmm

earnest olive
#

if you buy parts and wait to build

#

that's how you end up with a defective part past return window

potent portal
#

Looks like the cargo ship that got stuck is floating again

desert gulch
#

Damn that's neat

potent portal
#

Suez canal is clear again

earnest olive
#

better to get your pc working with integrated graphics first

desert gulch

tiny backhoe took 3 days or something

i actually heard about this

earnest olive

why

Then wait

earnest olive

why would you upgrade a 10400f to an 11400f

#

lol...

ripe wedge
desert gulch

Don't buy a temp cpu

#

Not worth at all

no im not buying it until i get the gpu so itll be out buy the time i buy this pc im desigining

earnest olive

your fps will increase by at least 0

don't bother with part list if you aren't going to click buy immediately

just do it when you actually plan to buy

There isn't a 30 series card you'll find for under $500 except maybe 3060ti FE, and the used market is insane right now

it is 3200 c16..?

Says 19 for me

ripe wedge
desert gulch

Weird it legit just changed

you sure you're looking at the right one

The first list is 3200c19

the second list, which is linked, is 3200c16

desert gulch
#

Ohhhhh yeah

stoic island
ripe wedge
#

what gpu are they putting in it

desert gulch
#

I'm looking at first list then

#

3k series I think

#

Prolly 3060ti or 3070

stoic island
#

something decent

ripe wedge
#

id go 10400 non f

#

so you can at least use it

desert gulch

Jake

urban quest
#

i want to put a 3060ti

desert gulch

They have multiple part lists

In that link

stoic island

no

#

It's only one list it links to

desert gulch
#

I'm looking at one with a 10400 non f rn

ripe wedge
stoic island
#

The interface for it allows you to choose which list you're looking at

ripe wedge
#

this is the list we are looking at

urban quest
#

the first one is junk imo im sticking with option 2

stoic island
#

wrong link

desert gulch
#

Jake check that one

stoic island
#

this is the correct link

#

lol

ripe wedge
#

My link goes to same place for me

stoic island

ah

desert gulch

Ye

ripe wedge
#

so prolly looks weird

stoic island
#

that's why

desert gulch
#

For 500 gig m.2 I think sn750 is 59.99 rn on amazon

#

For that list

urban quest
#

what does m.2 do im a nood ngl

ripe wedge
#

its the interface

desert gulch
#

M.2 is a form factor

#

It's the one that looks like a little bar

#

That sits on the motherboard

stoic island
#

too many technicalities tbh

ripe wedge
#

so like theres sata m.2 and nvme m.2

stoic island
#

it's a SSD

#

it's storage

ripe wedge
#

^

urban quest
#

oh ok

desert gulch
#

Mhm

ripe wedge
#

nvme m.2 is what you want

desert gulch
#

Yes

stoic island
#

m.2 = smol stick of storage

ripe wedge
#

sata m.2 is a waste

desert gulch
#

Sn750 is pog

#

500 gig

stoic island
#

no sn550 is pog

#

mp33 is also pog

ripe wedge
#

sn550 is ok

desert gulch
#

59.99 on amazon, cant beat it

stoic island
#

helix l also pog

ripe wedge
#

mp33 is ok

stoic island
#

@desert gulch mp33 for 53$ can

ripe wedge
#

pilot E is pogger

desert gulch
#

Still a sn750 for 59.99 is pretty good

stoic island

It's decent
