when the hell did i say that the pc that bruned had a loop
marble seal
i didnt say it did. im saying you knew enough to put a custom loop in a different one, id expect you to know enough to put the other one in a case...

cursive arch
huh
marble seal
oh you said did i have a case nooo i did not
^
am i misunderstanding
for the loop one. my suggestion is turn it off asap if you didnt. take it apart and dry off / soak up everything. clean it thoroughly with isopropyl. dry it for 24 hrs, in front of a fan if you can, and pray.

i mean its decent
idk what that price translates to in USD
little osprey
oof
1.513 USD for that prebuilt
imo i would just look if building one is cheaper than buying that
desert gulch
yeah not worth at all for 1.5k
id maybe go 800 MAX usd on that pc
so like a lil over half that price of that one
little osprey
although he is on a different country.
desert gulch
yeah
little osprey
so hardware price changes
little osprey
huh?
little osprey
that pc would be around 600 bucks
did the math and searched for the parts
550 if 1650 was at MSRP
i put the 1650 for 200
desert gulch
yeah
wanton cliff
Uhhh why lmao
desert gulch
yeah easily
wanton cliff
The 10400 just does the math
desert gulch
your friend is wrong
wanton cliff
The 3070 does the stuff on screen
desert gulch
10400 could even run a 3080

what psu you got?

or does that not relate to it

psu does matter

lemem check💀
wanton cliff
That’s perfectly fine

Although I would get a 750w that system will do absolutely fine

do all PSU’s fit in basically every pc?
like would a 750w fit in my case and whatever
static ravine
do all PSU’s fit in basically every pc?
there are some smaller and some bigger

can i find a small 750w?

but psus are mostly one size

all of them would fit in p400a
odd abyss

static ravine
yep
odd abyss
that’s what i have

not all most of them would fit
wanton cliff
I have a 750w in my P400a
odd abyss
but would all psu’s sockets and plugs work with my motherb

that one will fit
wanton cliff
750w AMP specifically
little osprey
but would all psu’s sockets and plugs work with my motherb
yes they follow the same standards

ok

but would all psu’s sockets and plugs work with my motherb
Yes, it’s all standardized
static ravine
@odd abyss yep it'll work
desert gulch
yes they follow the same standards
well not all of them do
odd abyss
if i get a 3k series i prob won’t get one until i get a 750w
little osprey
well not all of them do
ofc
odd abyss
wut
desert gulch
you can find some crappy ones that come in prebuilts
that use 20 pin for mobo
and stuff

but in general youll be fine

I found it turns out they only make like one popular 360 mm aio
rich helm
It seems like there's a button thing for the rgb but I don't have that
In the diagram it shows a special adapter cable labeled 12
You plug the rgb from the block and the fans into the rgb hub then the cable from the hub into the adapter then the adapter into the 5v rgb on the mobo
tiny oriole
Ok this is what I need
Idk where to find a replacement though
Thanks for your help
tiny oriole
The button thing to make the rgb on the cpu block work. I bought my cpu used and the aio cooler came with it but have some missing parts

You might need an argb hub or something

winged lion
Is the 11600k still good for the price though?

because AMD doesn't respond under 300$ nowdays

Hey so I am trying to build a PC for general office work and maybe to play some older games like far cry 3, cod 4 and some of the games made by Valve, and I was wondering if someone would be willing to take a look at the part list I have made to make sure that things look alright. This is also meant to be a budget PC build.
here is the list
stoic island
wrong link
radiant thistle
stoic island
It's budget
little osprey
looks pretty good value wise
ripe wedge
how about the h510 mobo
stoic island
10100 price is kinda wack rn tho
little osprey
only thing to note if you ever want to upgrade to a 11400 h410 doesnt support 4.0 or 11th
radiant thistle
I found the CPU for 125 on ebay sorry I forgot to mention that
ripe wedge
yeah at that price id get a 10400 or 11400
little osprey
wd blue sn550 1TB or wd black sn750? Is there even much of a difference in speed between the sn550 and sn750 for it to be worth the significant price difference
ripe wedge
that ram is also a meh
little osprey
i used a 10100 for a couple months at 4k its actually pretty decent for the price
ripe wedge
yeah but not when its $170

look at the list lel, no gpu
Didn't scroll down that far nvm

and even when talking about sustained perf with slc cache sizes, at 50GB file size, the sn550 stays within margin of error with just being fast before running out of SLC cache, and quite fast relatively when it does run out
better comparison for cache sizes and speeds before and after cache used up
tough kettle
Tomshardware tested it with the old firmware
newer one is tested by TPU
look at that
stoic island
lemme check then
wait
@tough kettle did it get a bigger slc cache too.....?
looks like ~150GB cache in tpu testing
wack
but it does seem better
somehow the average still loses out to the (?) SN500..?
dunno
wack
going to leave it alone now
a2000 decent
I still like sn550 better
(faster in bursts, in longer sustained r/w, sn550 faster)

Scrap the samsung m.2
Put in a mushkin pilot e
Scrap the sata ssd and put in a 2tb barracuda hdd
Spend the budget on a b550 board
For pcie gen 4 availability

130$ for windows

For pcie gen 4 availability
Ehh pcie gen 4 only useful for ssds and only if you moving files constantly but 240gb sata for 44? You can get a 500gb one for cheaper/same price
Rams overpriced too

Ehh pcie gen 4 only useful for ssds and only if you moving files constantly but ...
yeah but gen 4 will futureproof the system incase some highly fast expansion is needed

And I'm not sure about good coolers in that range that aren't the d15 haven't really looked into it
tough kettle
cooling a 5800x stock should be relatively easy
fossil cedar
A gammaxx se 224 or vetroo?
tough kettle
so something along the lines of 50-70 USD like the Fuma 2/Mugen 5 rev B/ that one phanteks cooler with the wacky name/ninja 5 etc etc
fossil cedar
Ahh yeah
tough kettle
A gammaxx se 224 or vetroo?
if looking for slightly worse ones, pretty barebones but if on a tight budget

I thought those would be a bit lackluster for 5800x

it should be fine for a stock 5800x

that seems a bit too expensive
Mugen 5 for the price of a fuma 2 generally not worth it
this seems like a cheap decent one

@tough kettle 5800x is not easy to cool
tough kettle
no, stock is relatively easy with a half-decent cooler
it manages to get pretty decent temps with a U12S, not too bad
robust lake
yeah with decent one i guess it can be fine but it still get hot
tough kettle
low-70's don't seems hot to me
fossil cedar
Mugen 5 for the price of a fuma 2 generally not worth it
Ohh sorry idk the diff between them
tough kettle
Fuma 2 is a dual tower cooler
slightly bigger heatsink too, and there would be other differences such as the fan used
and is generally slightly better in thermals and acoustics
Dual towers are generally better for cooling, the heatsink is divided into two parts with 2 fans, when the airflow through the heat sink decreases, it results in a decrease in average air temperature
which would decrease the base temperature of the heat sink
and the thermal resistance should also decrease
which is temperature rise per unit of power

Sadly, I'm at the point of looking at prebuilt websites. May have to wait a month or two, but it would be a system with a guaranteed GPU. And I could just shift the parts into the case I have that I actually want to use.

Do you need the extra cores for anything? A 10600k would be plenty if not streaming or editing.
You also don't need that much power, is that for future proofing upgrades?

there arent any thermal constraints so i dont why not
potent portal
You wouldn't use the full potential of that CPU unless you need the extra cores for multi tasking. You can save around $80 or more and it'll be the same game performance.
potent portal
10600k is $70 cheaper at MC
Just an option, I can't stop you if you really want to go overkill on the CPU
patent wraith
10600k is $70 cheaper at MC
yeah but the 10700k at mc is the same price as a 10600k not at mc so why not

id go 32 for that stuff

16 is fine for gaming, but once you start streaming youll want 32

I only recommend 16 to those who won't need to stream
little osprey
yea i want 32
static ravine
32 best option tbh
little osprey
im currently on a i3 4gb ram laptop lol i cant do anything
desert gulch
lol
you could do a 11600k and 3080 build tho
since streaming is mostly handled on gpu encoder
little osprey
i heard 3080 is kinda rare ?
desert gulch
it is
every gpu in the market rn is rare
for a decent price
ofc you can buy a 3080 on ebay rn for 2k
little osprey
oh yea ik i saw the gpu prices their skyrocketing
static ravine
m
desert gulch
im guessing 3080 would be able to do high settings at 1440 with 100ish framerates
on more demanding games
but youll have to watch real world benchmarks on the games you wanna plaay
to see real fps
static ravine
less demanding esports titles probs 144+fps 1440p ultra or high
desert gulch
yeah easy
potent portal
A 3080 can mostly do 4k 60 fps
static ravine
once 3090 perf becomes standard on mid range cards for decent prices 4k would probs be the norm
desert gulch
i still dont rly think in monitors you can rly see difference from 2k to 4k
potent portal
Some people can tell the difference if it's a big enough monitor. If it's just a 27 inch pixel density is so high anyway you can't tell.

is your mobo sitting on the right strandoffs? @royal grove

usually mobos have them preinstalled but who knows, maybe they forgot or sumthin
i see it comes with 8 standoffs and the 9th one is preinstalled in the case
from what im reading

Yeah I have standoffs
desert gulch
looks like you have to install them yourself
royal grove
I need to put them in
