This one and a 24 pin

#

Ah

potent portal
#

It's rated 200 technically iirc

rich helm
stoic island
#

Single eps is fine

rich helm
#

Cause you only have one connector

little osprey
#

i'll plug in both just bc my cablemod kit comes with it

#

rn im using the OEM cables

#

all the 8 pins are daisy chain 😩

rich helm
#

I payed for both cables I’m going to use both cables

wicked frigate
#

Wait so your saying 5900x is the best for gaming right?

winged lion
potent portal
#

Oh ew daisy chain. There's no point plugging in the second one then if it's just connected to the first anyway.

wicked frigate
#

Not the 11900k

#

Or the 11 gens

balmy patio
#

11600k looks promising tho

little osprey
#

the GPU ones

#

EPS is just 8 to 4+4

potent portal
#

11th gen tops out at 8 cores, automatically less performance than the 12 core AMD chips

stoic island
#

Gpu daisy chain bad idea

little osprey
little osprey
#

i don't pull that much

#

they're separate though

stoic island
#

Lots of issue people had with daisy chain pcie power on 3080s

little osprey
winter rover
#

where can i get a cheap windows 10 key?

little osprey
#

so

#

its 254W

tight sorrel
rich helm
stoic island
#

I believe the issue isn't PL, iirc it drew too much from a single rail

winter rover
winged lion
potent portal
stoic island
#

It wasn't a cable melting thing, it was weird gpu errors thing

little osprey
#

Yeah

rich helm
#

And spend less on the keyboard

winged lion
#

Aight yea

wicked frigate
#

@little osprey windows as thinking 4K

little osprey
#

Gotta love the boot problems after i clean install windows 😳

winged lion
#

I’ll just get the apex 5

little osprey
#

Just buy a 5600x

stoic island
#

Oh well, there's a bunch of reddit posts on it, and I believe GN covered it a bit back

little osprey
#

higher the resolution the more GPU dependent it gets

cold sorrel
#

I mean, I've technically got a start on my build with parts I bought last year. It's just all I have is monitor, keyboard, case and fans.

little osprey
wicked frigate
#

Yah o think I am going to get the 3080 pc

#

Oc

little osprey
#

Prebuilt or?

wicked frigate
#

No pre

little osprey
#

Ok

wicked frigate
#

I thought 11900k was going to be better for gaming

little osprey
#

@stoic island btw i figured out why h150i is actually good

stoic island
#

Wot

little osprey
#

the fans have a really good static pressure

#

the separate 3 pack RGB ones are horrible but the included are great

wicked frigate
#

Wait is there another cpu conning out in nov knee

#

November

#

Intel

#

?

stoic island
#

I don't recognize it to be good when it falls behind x62 in noise normalized smh @little osprey

little osprey
#

you're running it 1000RPM below max speed

#

bruh

stoic island
#

Noise normalized

little osprey
#

1800 isn't much louder

stoic island
#

If you want to run max speed you're competing with clc360

little osprey
potent portal
stoic island
#

Yes

#

Clc360 topped charts with it's loud fans

#

And it's actually really good value if you don't care about noise

wicked frigate
#

@potent portal do you know any

little osprey
#

According to specs page h150i fans are better

#

idk about the bearings

stoic island
#

Lmfao never trust spec pages

little osprey
#

nah

#

just comparing the static pressure

stoic island
#

Everyone uses different fan testing methodologies you know that right

little osprey
#

gib bench

potent portal
stoic island
#

I can give performance benches

#

Like the one on h150i

formal karma
#

This good?

Additional item not seen is a Seagate Baracuda 2tb HDD I already have.

I'm mostly wondering a) enough Power out if the psu? And b) pressure issues from too many fans?

little osprey
stoic island
#
little osprey
#

thats the really bad one

stoic island
#

@little osprey remember there's also at least 3 parts in the equation, fans, pump, and the radiator

#

Wat

little osprey
#

the 3 others are better

stoic island
#

W a t

little osprey
stoic island
#

Smh

balmy patio
#

@slow compass put your text with your image, not seperate to the image or else it'll just get deleted

stoic island
#

Specify which cooler then

#

Because that's the h150i

slow compass
#

@balmy patio i realized i typed it all out xd

little osprey
#

Pro XT/both capellix

little osprey
#

there's only 4

formal karma
stoic island
#

Probably the wrong one again, because Corsair is annoying @little osprey

little osprey
#

yeah its wrong one again

#

think the other 3 are just too new

#

There atleast a fan comparison?

stoic island
#

@formal karma basically, you're nowhere near drawing the max from the PSU, and "too many fans" is not an issue with NZXT cases, because half the fans can't pull air due to how it's designed

little osprey
#

it would the ML120 pro

stoic island
#

Too lazy

#

And remember

#

Fan is just 1 our of many parts on the aio

little osprey
#

Do you know how ass the fans on the regular h150i are?

formal karma
stoic island
little osprey
#

1600RPM vs 2400RPM

brittle tinsel
#

Say my power went out during first time boot or windows install, would that cause issues?

stoic island
#

Corsair needs to stop making that annoying

#

It's like ADATA with switching controllers and calling it the same ssd

brittle tinsel
#

Cause hell is dropping on us right now (really bad Lightning storm)

little osprey
#

the RGB ones are just as bad as the h150i pro one

formal karma
little osprey
#

even though its "pro"

#

like

#

its just 4 LEDs

#

how are you making the fans worse

stoic island
#

I'm too annoyed to look at benches because I doubt I can find the correct bench

little osprey
#

i don't think anyone bothered to test them

#

because they saw "same name?, eh same fan"

stoic island
#

Probably not actually worth testing smh

little osprey
#

no it def is

stoic island
#

Do remember static pressure means nothing if the fin density on the rad isn't high :p

little osprey
#

fin density def high

#

i have a h100i

stoic island
#

I doubt it but okay

little osprey
#

they're entirely diff AIOs at this point

#

corsair revamped like everything

stoic island
#

@little osprey yay I think I found the right bench smh

#

Better, but outperformed by z73 and ml360r

little osprey
#

probs same pump

#

etc

stoic island
#

Wot

#

Aren't they all on asetek gen 6 still

little osprey
#

the regular and capellix

stoic island
#

Yes

little osprey
#

fans were probably only thing that changed

#

maybe radiator

stoic island
#

So anyways, not that great

#

Still just decent

little osprey
#

just tested gpu oc

#

crashed

#

time to take a stupid boot process

stoic island
#

Lol

little osprey
#

I GOT A 2TB PAPERWEIGHT

#

WOOHOOOO

stoic island
#

Wot

little osprey
#

my SSD won't boot unless HDD is in computer

#

both have windows installs

stoic island
#

Lol what

little osprey
#

but SSD won't show up with or without HDD

#

yet it shows up in ez flash 3

stoic island
#

Multiple windows installations on the same machine gets wack

little osprey
#

i don't think thats the problem

#

pretty sure its the SSD not showing up in bios

#

both slots didn't show up

#

fiddled around with almost every PCIe setting

potent portal
#

Sounds like the Bootloader got borked

#

Installed on one drive for both OS versions

little osprey
#

So do another clean install with HDD outside of system?

potent portal
#

Is it a M.2 SSD?

little osprey
#

Yeah

#

SN750

potent portal
#

Try another SATA slot they can share lanes with M.2

little osprey
#

already did

#

tried 1 and either 3 or 4

potent portal
#

Other M.2 slot?

little osprey
#

Yep

#

it bios loops if i take HDD out

potent portal
#

Sheesh yeah it might just be ded. You can try testing on another computer or in a dock.

little osprey
#

prollly gonna do that today

#

gonna be a pain

potent portal
#

CMOS clear couldn't hurt too

little osprey
#

just hoping i don't have to buy another ssd

cold sorrel
#

Sorry I'm being depressing today. I'm frustrated.

stoic island
#

Should prob wipe both drives and clean install with only single drive installed on both but yea

potent portal
#

If the SSD isn't showing in BIOS though that indicates other issues

#

And again... are you ever NOT having problems Mando?

#

Not complaining you just seem to have awful luck

stoic island
#

Unless I'm missing a lot of context, mando doesn't seem to have that many problems, just a few once in a while

potent portal
#

I could be thinking of someone else... I still need sleep...

stoic island
#

No sleep, tech support only

#

Only GN you get is gamers nexus >:D

stoic island
winter rover
potent portal
#

I can't I need to pick up my wife from work in a little but and our 2 year decided sleep was optional tonight so now I'm typing run on sentences

jagged ember
#

Sleep really was optional today

lyric thistle
#

Sleep was indeed optional

jagged ember
#

As it turns out

potent portal
#

Oh hey guys, shuffle was early today get in on that

jagged ember
#

Oh cool

balmy patio
jagged ember
#

Someone else can benefit

little osprey
potent portal
#

11900k launch today

jagged ember
#

Im good on the pc parts

little osprey
#

some stupid thing wants to not be compatible because of something else

balmy patio
#

the steel legend does look nice on a white-themed build

#

some white rgb curcial dimms might not look so bad either, what's your budget @winter rover ?

little osprey
#

its just personal preference when it comes down to 224 vs gammax 400

#

@winter rover Do what patokav recommended but keep the cooler you wanted

fossil cedar
#

Well yeah cooler they had was fine, i just prefer 224 and like 3$ cheaper i think lol

winter rover
#

920 tax and all

#

@balmy patio

balmy patio
winter rover
#

without

balmy patio
#

what gpu do you plan on getting?

winter rover
#

i wasnt planing on geting one i was just going to get the i5-10400 and use it for school and play games on my laptop

balmy patio
#

ahh i see

winter rover
#

ye

fossil cedar
balmy patio
#

rgb ram is good bruh smh

winter rover
#

lol

#

i could do without rgb ram and just put in rgb lights

balmy patio
#

shiny lights = better self-esteem

winter rover
#

.-.

balmy patio
#

oh, ok fair enough

winter rover
#

ill be back in 30 ish mins i have to get a covid test

fossil cedar
#

Gl

balmy patio
#

gl

winter rover
#

thx

balmy patio
#

and also, @winter rover , if you plan on gaming without a dedicated gpu, go amd and look for a 4650g at ebay, offerup, fb marketplace, and other used retailers

olive kraken
#

Is gfx an abreviation of graphics card?

little osprey
olive kraken
#

I am trying to find whether my gpu fits in here

#

Okii

little osprey
#

old term though

olive kraken
#

cooler master trying to play me

little osprey
#

everyone refers it as a gpu or graphics card nowdays

olive kraken
#

yeah thats why I was confused

potent portal
#

That's what I'm using, B-die confirmed

restive nebula
#

@slow compass omg money so mispent

fossil cedar
balmy patio
#

it should be alr

potent portal
#

Looks good to me

#

But "currently unavailable"

fossil cedar
#

That's because uk link

#

Same happens when i open .com link on phone

#

Cool thanks

potent portal
#

Ah silly Amazon

fossil cedar
#

Indeed

potent portal
#

Gotta make a totally different site for each country for some reason

slow compass
#

@restive nebula how so?
i bought the mobo and i5 for $120 off my friend, ram was $90, cooler was free from my friend, hard drives were from my father, case was $85 and monitor was $115

#

psu from my father as well

#

i didn’t buy the case or monitor either, my mother did

#

so really all i bought was the mobo, core and ram

#

$210 total

restive nebula
slow compass
#

@restive nebula i didn’t buy it

#

read it

#

it was given to me

#

for free

#

why would i say no to a free liquid cooler

fossil cedar
restive nebula
slow compass
#

@restive nebula please read the full statement before chatting

restive nebula
#

im meant if u bought at full price

slow compass
#

nope

#

i didn’t buy it

restive nebula
#

i mean in the full pic u didnt say that

slow compass
#

it was free, only problem is one rgb on the fan doesn’t work

restive nebula
#

so its safe to assume

fossil cedar
#

90$ for ram? Yikes

restive nebula
#

its not a wild assumption

potent portal
slow compass
#

in the full pic i also didn’t price anything

restive nebula
slow compass
#

@fossil cedar it’s 32gb

restive nebula
#

also y would u need 64gb

fossil cedar
slow compass
#

@restive nebula i own a business, i render massive projects at a time

fossil cedar
#

Ddr3 ram?

slow compass
#

@fossil cedar retail was $120, on sale and used honey

#

it’s DDR4

fossil cedar
#

3000mhz cl16?

#

Or what speed

#

But that's pretty good

restive nebula
#

cl18 2666

fossil cedar
#

Oh oof

restive nebula
#

no im kidding

#

idk

slow compass
#

it’s 2400 MHz, max speed for my mobo

fossil cedar
#

Cl20 2133 😎

#

Oof do you have a h series mobo?

slow compass
#

i don’t go that far into specs it’s a B250 PC MATE

restive nebula
#

it doesnt matter how much ram u have for rendering if its that slow

slow compass
#

you tell me

#

@restive nebula gets the job done, i’ve had no issues rendering 500+go projects

#

gb*

restive nebula
#

ig if it works

balmy patio
#

i mean it's 7th gen intel, on a b series board, the ram isn't that bad

slow compass
#

i don’t care that much about speed, 2400 mhz is a big boost compared to my previous ram at 1800

#

speed is good yes

fossil cedar
#

Fair enough

slow compass
#

but it’s max speed for my mobo

#

and if i buy a mobo i’ll need faster ram, and i can get a new core

#

just a big bunny hole where in the end i’ll probably waste money

stoic island
#

~300$ min for nice cpu+mobo+ram

slow compass
#

if anything i’ll save up my money and get a full new build

olive kraken
#

is getting b die ram that good?

balmy patio
#

for $210 it's not bad

stoic island
#

B die only for OCing

olive kraken
#

I can get the exact same kit with speed and size but bdie 30 bucks more

stoic island
#

If you don't care about OCing, b die doesn't offer any better performance at xmp

olive kraken
#

okii

stoic island
#

But b die is all about OCing

olive kraken
#

thanks

slow compass
#

@stoic island tempting, but no, i’m getting an i7-7700k, another 32gb, 3060, and 2x1tb ssds

stoic island
#

Uh

fossil cedar
slow compass
#

like i said, i’ll get a new build first before selling my current one

stoic island
#

How much would the 7700k cost you

slow compass
#

@fossil cedar Sorry, what’s XMP?

fossil cedar
stoic island
#

Because I might suggest something more like 10400+B560+ram

slow compass
#

@stoic island Not buying rn, too overpriced, it’s $400 rn should be like $180

fossil cedar
stoic island
#

For ~300$ total

#

Well, depends on ram price

#

10400 around 150$, b560 board around 100$

slow compass
#

@stoic island Can you send me it? If I can get a 10400, new mobo and faster ram i’ll do it when i get more money, my main priority is a GPU

stoic island
#

And you'll have unlocked ram, no cap on the frequency

balmy patio
# slow compass <@191276897227898880> Sorry, what’s XMP?

it's an overclocking profile set by the manufacturer to run the sticks at their rated speeds, base ram speeds are 2133mhz iirc, the xmp profile sets it up to the rated ram speeds, such as if you bought a 3200cl16 kit, the xmp profile will get that stick running at 3200cl16 and not on the base clock of 2133mhz

fossil cedar
#

Yep that

stoic island
winter rover
#

@balmy patio im back

balmy patio
#

hey

#

as i was saying, instead of the 10400, find a decently priced 4650g on ebay or other used retailer sites, vega graphics are superior over intel's igpu's

winter rover
#

ok

potent portal
#

AMD has new APUs coming this year too with improved graphics and good performance

winter rover
stoic island
#

Doesn't seem too wrong

#

4650g had an Asia launch

#

seller ships from SK

lyric thistle
#

Seller since 2019

#

Doesn't really strike me as long abandoned

stoic island
#

4650g tray was also on amazon for 300$

winter rover
#

ok

brittle tinsel
#

Does the Arctic liquid freezer, plug into cpu fan 1 or pump fan 1?

balmy patio
#

the fans go into cpu fan header and pump into pump header

winter rover
#

if i get the 4650g should i get one with the fan it comes with or buy a dif one

brittle tinsel
#

I would plug it into my fan hub but I don’t know if that can control the pump

balmy patio
#

there's no wire coming out of the pump?

winter rover
#

if i get the 4650g could it play games?

#

without a gpu

stoic island
#

Yes

#

some

#

It's a pretty nice iGPU

winter rover
#

mc?

stoic island
#

lmao I can play minecraft on uhd620

winter rover
#

ok

#

lol

brittle tinsel
#

Pins*

serene epoch
#

mobo recomendations for 5600x around 150$ but culd go higher

balmy patio
#

the aorus or mag lineup

#

pretty sweet, and make sure the board you get has bios flashback

brittle tinsel
winter rover
#

what cooler should i get for the 4650G

balmy patio
#

vetroo v5, gammax 400, se-224xt, or stock cooler if you buy one with it

serene epoch
#

thanks for recommendations

little osprey
#

Alright, I wanna start a pc project, aside from the pc I'm I'm already building, I wanna build the cheapest pc I can, but still has decent performance, budget is 250-300, it needs a gpu, it only needs to run lower end games, I wanna prove that you don't need a ton of money for a pc. Help me out here

little osprey
serene epoch
little osprey
#

Hmmm

winter rover
little osprey
#

What about a 560?

#

Or 550

#

Rx

winter rover
#

fps?

little osprey
#

No, im asking if a rx 560 would fit in budget

winter rover
#

ill look

#

one sec

little osprey
#

Hell, ill even go with a rx460

winter rover
#

ok

serene epoch
little osprey
#

Neither do I lol

#

I assume I'd have to go with a old xeon cpu

#

You can find one for like 10 dollara

#

And a mobo for it for 50

#

And ram for like 15

serene epoch
#

rn i have a intel i7 980 and im ready for a upgrade cant keep up with modded mc

serene epoch
#

gtx

little osprey
#

HOW TF YOU PAIR THOSE 2 TOGETHER

serene epoch
#

u dont

little osprey
#

I know lol

serene epoch
#

i got it from my grandpa who almost only plays world of warcraft so he just updated gpu when he got new moniters or when he needed one just left the cpu alone

winter rover
#

is ryzen 5 good?

serene epoch
little osprey
little osprey
winter rover
#

2600

balmy patio
#

for how much?

serene epoch
#

my dad nice

winter rover
balmy patio
#

nah

little osprey
winter rover
balmy patio
#

10400/f

little osprey
winter rover
winter rover
balmy patio
winter rover
#

ok

brittle tinsel
#

My cpu power won’t reach, any suggestions?

brittle tinsel
rich helm
#

I’m assuming you are wiring it from the back

#

Right

brittle tinsel
#

Yeah

rich helm
#

Hmm

#

Weird

#

Usually pretty

#

Long

brittle tinsel
#

Should I turn the psu upside down?

rich helm
brittle tinsel
#

No

rich helm
#

Do that

#

It’s better for it to be facing down so it can draw air in

winter rover
#

what storage should i get

rich helm
balmy patio
#

^

#

$110 and it's basically a cheaper sn750, that's a steal

winter rover
#

what does this mean The motherboard M.2 slot #1 is listed as reserved for future use and is non-functional.

balmy patio
#

i think that menas that it's only useable with an 11th gen chip

winter rover
#

ok

#

so the storage would or would not work?

serene epoch
#

my dad is building a new pc and his work gave him a quadro to borrow while he waited for a new gpu he is trying to get a 3060 or 70 so he dosent need to upgrade

#

not overkill at all

winter rover
#

any good psu's?

balmy patio
winter rover
balmy patio
#

and for psu's, segotep's 600w non-modular is nice, cheap, and effective

serene epoch
balmy patio
#

though it's got ketchup and mustard cables but some electrical tape should work

serene epoch
#

with enough power

balmy patio
serene epoch
#

i know but its atleast a start depending on budget

balmy patio
#

fair enough

winter rover
#

or ill just look for a gpu on ebay or something

serene epoch
#

gpu price is so high for a 550 but u cant change that going lower would probbly be to low for most stuff

#

so i would say try and find one cheap used if u can and need the pc now

balmy patio
#

for the ram, go with a cheaper kit rated for the same speeds

#

for the motherboard, you're good enough with a b560/m pro4

#

and how much are you willing to pay for a gpu?

winter rover
#

ig 150-200 would be nice

#

would a b560m work?

#

wait nvm

serene epoch
#

is it worth using more then a stock cooler for 5600x if im not overclocking?

little osprey
#

nah

balmy patio
#

^

#

unless you see that it's noisy, looks bad, or reaching temps uncomfortable to you, you're fine with the stock cooler

winter rover
#

is a 8gb gpu good?

balmy patio
#

yee

serene epoch
balmy patio
#

6 and over are generally the norm nowadays

winter rover
#

ok

balmy patio
#

better than the 550 and pulls the same power iirc

winter rover
#

ok

#

@balmy patio here are all my parts and with all this i would have $221 left over for a gpu

balmy patio
balmy patio
#

you're good enough with the uhd630 instead of paying for a 710

#

and that should be price at like $30-40 😳

winter rover
#

wow

#

see the ASRock B560 Pro4 ATX LGA1200 Motherboard is 109 on newegg but 190 on amazon and newegg is soldout

balmy patio
#

it's prolly some third party seller on amazon that's selling it for that price

#

it'll come back on newegg eventually

winter rover
#

ok

odd abyss
#

on pc part picker

#

it finds the cheapest way to buy a part rught?

#

and then when u wanna buy u click the buy button on the right? of each part click the buy button?

odd abyss
#

k ty

desert gulch
odd abyss
#

ok

desert gulch
#

sometimes it messes up

#

but for most part it finds cheapest part

potent portal
#

It's been a little off lately, I think due to the stock weirdness. It likes to say things are out of stock when they're not lately.

desert gulch
#

yeah

winter rover
desert gulch
#

looks great

winter rover
#

ok

desert gulch
#

what gpu will you get once gpu market is normal?

winter rover
#

idk i havent looked into it

potent portal
#

Looks good to me too

desert gulch
#

yup same

potent portal
#

A 3060ti would pair nicely with 10400

#

Maybe a 3070 if you can afford

desert gulch
#

yea 3060ti is best value in that price range rn

winter rover
#

ok

potent portal
#

Well if you get a developer account for xbox you can run windows apps on your series console. It's only like $10-15

odd abyss
#

i found a cheap 1660 but at the end it says "FAULTY" what does that mean

potent portal
#

Ask the seller

#

Could be any of 100 things wrong with it

sullen spoke
#

flashback to this, i finally received it but it actually doesn't fit the unit nor did the company respond to my email asking where i can find the power supply so i have no idea where to find this damn thing

odd abyss
#

does "for parts or not working" mean it might not work?

#

on ebay

winter rover
odd abyss
#

oh

#

winter rover
#

lol

odd abyss
#

wha does it mean on ebay, im tryna get a 1660 and it says "parts only" is the GPU in parts lol?

#

sorry im asking alot of questions, cant rlly ask buyer im not logged in

desert gulch
#

youd have to ask seller why it failed

#

could be anything from a broken pcie connector to being zapped thanks to a lightning strike

#

in general dont buy those

odd abyss
#

bru it could be broke 😭

desert gulch
#

it is

odd abyss
#

wtf why would anyone sell a broken gpu

desert gulch
#

ppl buy them sometimes

odd abyss
#

buying a useless gpu

desert gulch
#

for heatsink, fans

odd abyss
#

tf

desert gulch
#

not useless

odd abyss
#

desert gulch

Ping me when done

odd abyss
#

#

lol

#

nvm

#

im dumb i see

brittle tinsel
#

Where do I plug these in?

odd abyss
#

manual?

balmy patio
#

yee check your manual, those are for the usb and audio ports

brittle tinsel
#

How can I tell which side is + or - the manual doesn’t say (power and reset switches)

#

It’s taken me 2 days to build this pc and about to be 3 if I don’t get this done, I never should have done this for a first time builder

#

I should have had help present

little osprey
#

if it's no any + - on cable .it doesn't matter

brittle tinsel
#

There is a little ^ on 1 side but that’s it

brittle tinsel
little osprey
#

put it as others . I mean write side to same as leds

brittle tinsel
#

Ah

odd abyss
#

lmfao is it a storage thing?

frank stirrup
odd abyss
#

ive never seen such a thing

frank stirrup
frank stirrup
little osprey
frank stirrup
#

Basically the voltage text

little osprey
#

its basically a swith theres no any + and - there

frank stirrup
#

Power and reset dont need 5 contacts

uncut pelican
brittle tinsel
little osprey
#

yeah power led and hdd led have + and - and it written on cend of cable plug

brittle tinsel
#

Per switch

odd abyss
little osprey
#

but for power switch and reset switch side is not matter

frank stirrup
uncut pelican
#

Its p much a server

frank stirrup
#

This one has 5

brittle tinsel
#

That was before it was a handful of wires that I didn’t know about

#

I was talking about 2 2 pin cables that day pwr sw and rst sw according to the manual that’s power and reset switches

frank stirrup
#

Now which wire are you asking about

#

Send a pic of ONLY those

brittle tinsel
#

They are already plugged in....

frank stirrup
#

So then whats the problem

brittle tinsel
#

War pig helped me out

frank stirrup
#

For future reference please keep only the wires you are confused about in the shot

little osprey
#

hope it works lol

brittle tinsel
#

I was referring to the whole wad of wires

brittle tinsel
#

“Power and reset switches”

frank stirrup
#

Ah i skipped over that part

#

My bad

brittle tinsel
#

I found out they had written text on the other side as to what they were, just was confused on the positive and negative of the switches

#

It’s all good brother happens to the best of us

#

Now last question, can I plug usb 3.0 header into 3.2?

#

I don’t have a 3.0 header according to my manual

rich helm
#

If it’s type c then no

brittle tinsel
uncut pelican
#

Anyone here ever built a nas?

brittle tinsel
#

Is it F***ed?

brittle tinsel
#

It just says cpu

rich helm
#

Is there only one light or like 4

brittle tinsel
#

1

rich helm
#

If it’s the cpu light then either the cpu is bad, or cpu power isn’t in correctly

#

I would try reseatting the power connector on both the mobo side and psu side of that cable

#

@brittle tinsel ping me if it doesn’t work

brittle tinsel
#

@rich helm changed the cable and it is reading everything but I have a led lit that says boot

#

@rich helm in the bios I keep getting cpu overheating, any ideas?

rich helm
#

Like the computer shuts off from overheating or just high temps

brittle tinsel
#

Doesn’t list em

brittle tinsel
rich helm
#

What board do you have

balmy patio
#

do you have an aio?

brittle tinsel
#

Yeh

rich helm
balmy patio
#

is the pump plugged in

#

lol

brittle tinsel
#

Yeah

#

I thing

#

Think

rich helm
#

Do you hear it

balmy patio
#

are you the guy with the liquid freezer ii?

brittle tinsel
#

Never heard what one sounds like

balmy patio
#

if so, then did you check the manual that everything's plugged in?

brittle tinsel
brittle tinsel
rich helm
#

I know the liquid freezer two has vrm fan so there might be a pump cable and fan cable idk

rich helm
brittle tinsel
#

Yeah

#

Maybe a little too much

balmy patio
#

that shouldn't really cause overheating

rich helm
#

^

brittle tinsel
#

The pump is plugged into pump fan 1

#

This aio only has 1 wire that is the pump and fans

brittle tinsel
# rich helm ^

Also is it normal for the error lights to cycle during boot?

rich helm
#

Yes

brittle tinsel
#

Ok, it goes through them all them stops at boot, which is weird cause the hdd has a windows on it

rich helm
brittle tinsel
#

Maybe it’s from my last pc

brittle tinsel
#

This is good right?

wanton cliff
#

is that...

brittle tinsel
wanton cliff
#

did you EVER put a cooler on that?

rich helm
wanton cliff
#

or is this the first time thats being applied?

brittle tinsel
#

Yeah I did a pea size bit and mounted it

wanton cliff
balmy patio
#

lol

rich helm
brittle tinsel
#

Ness skin?

wanton cliff
#

see his pfp

rich helm
#

Bee ness is life

brittle tinsel
#

Ah, well anyway Is that not enough paste?

wanton cliff
#

thats more than enough

brittle tinsel
#

I can’t think of anything else that would cause the overheat warning then shut down

balmy patio
#

can you send a pic of the cable coming out of the pump

brittle tinsel
#

My brother found that one of the screws for the cpu heat sink was off a little so maybe that’s it.

brittle tinsel
balmy patio
#

ight

brittle tinsel
brittle tinsel
wanton cliff
#

no

brittle tinsel
#

Ok

brittle tinsel
# wanton cliff no

If the heatsync wasn’t making 110% contact would that cause over heating issues?

#

Only 3 of 4 corners were in

balmy patio
brittle tinsel
#

Mag b550 msi tomahawk

wanton cliff
#

dont worry

#

it will smooth out better when you ticghten the cooler onto CPU

brittle tinsel
#

So then what is causing these issues?

brittle tinsel
wanton cliff
#

well it wouldnt cause thermal issues

#

unless its horrible quality paste

#

you should reapply tho

brittle tinsel
#

Mx-5

#

Arctic brand

#

I can’t even get into the bios right now

wanton cliff
#

reapply paste

#

always after you take it off

brittle tinsel
#

Guys what can I do with a dead board

wanton cliff
#

RMA it

#

or toss it

olive kraken
#

I can't rma it's too old

wanton cliff
#

then toss

olive kraken
#

Mmm, that sucks i thought maybe there'd be some use for it

#

Like selling it to company to scrap it for parts

#

It's b550 so

willow vine
#

clean it really well, encase it in resin and make it into a table? lol

olive kraken
#

Lol

willow vine
#

why can't you RMA it? its got like a year at least

#

b550s are pretty new

olive kraken
#

They wouldn't accept it, It spent like 2 months sitting there doing nothing and then when it was rdy to be used the computer wouldn't boot

willow vine
#

contact the manufacturer to check?

#

not newegg

olive kraken
#

Maybe I could try to do that

willow vine
#

the manufacturer has a much longer time for RMA

olive kraken
#

I'll check

#

😊 thanks

willow vine
#

is it ASUS?

#

i just had to RMA my asus b550

#

wicked frigate
#

And better then 11900k

wanton cliff

So should I get 5900d over 5950x

wanton cliff

What would I need rendering for

#

Dm it to me igtg

wanton cliff

wanton cliff

eek

wanton cliff

sell GPU, get newegg shuffle GPU

cerulean trellis
#

hmmm...

but what if it doesent sell?

wanton cliff
#

trust me

#

it will

#

put it up on ebay, wait

cerulean trellis
#

ok i will see what i can do what price should i put it at

wanton cliff
#

idk

cerulean trellis
#

?

#

200?

wanton cliff
#

set it for a little bit above MSRP, set it as bid

#

dont undersell

#

high demand rn

cerulean trellis
#

i have a rx 570 that cost me 80 dollars

wanton cliff
#

mhmm

#

and?

cerulean trellis
#

hold on

wanton cliff
#

check ebay for prices rn

cerulean trellis
#

ok

cerulean trellis
#

it is a powercolor

#

i see some at 182 for bid

wanton cliff
#

see how much they go for later

cerulean trellis
#

and some people bought them for 250

#

alot actually

little osprey
#

570s are worth 250 rn to the right person

cerulean trellis
#

is it worth selling it rn

little osprey
#

Only if you have something to replace it until you find stock

cerulean trellis
#

i dont soo....

#

but then my budget would be 400

little osprey
#

You could plop in any 9th gen cpu for a cheap upgrade

#

No need to change mobo

cerulean trellis
#

wwhy?

#

i have a b365m

little osprey
#

GPUs are a very hard comeby

wanton cliff
#

yeah but thats the next logical upgrade, especially for higher res gaming

cerulean trellis
#

oh i thought you said you need to change mobo sorry

austere wagon
#

It’s a scalper though idk much about that GPU though is it worth that much

cerulean trellis

scalping is buying something with the intention to scalp. This is taking advantage of the market.

cerulean trellis
#

yes big brain
