why do they have a b550 in the shuffle by itself
Wait what?
Why would you want to sell your pc or just curious?
was replying to the message above yours
Well I want to upgrade since I plan to start doing some heavy video editing and probably would want to upgrade case, psu, gpu, cpu, and probably cooler, and at that point a new pc build might be reasonable to consider instead of trying to upgrade and selling old parts individually
good tips
3060 ti will zoom in video editing
upgrading from 3060ti already is just 💀
How much could a pc without a gpu sell for lol
toss a 2070 super in it or something
if it's being delled, it can sell for a lot
What's specs
better toss in some warranties in there
Yeah ik 10600k and z490 but what case psu ram
lol theres single mobo on shuffle
10600k, msi z490 gaming edge, Corsair 220t rgb, 500gb ssd, 650w phanteks amp, 16gb 3600 cl18 trident z neo
Wifi and Bluetooth card
and that board is in stock everywhere lol
6950 ? 🤔
edit those videos in 16k
oh I get it lol
why is amd cpu and gpu series is so confusing
ryzen 9 6900x with radeon rx 6900 xt?
heck you can already do ryzen 5 5600x with radeon rx 5600 xt
yeah thats what i meant lol
I would keep the psu but and put a diff psu in that system then sell for like 500 -600?
wait wait wait
Probably closer to 600 hopefully since all the parts value combined is like 800-900
Yeah you could probs get 650ish for
Rough guestimate
See if something similar has sold on ebay recently and see what price
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/h9BpsX hmm this is what I’m thinking kinda for new build idk, considering custom loop from byski or finding a steal on a used loop
Maybe I can get dad to help fund new pc if I explain that it’s for editing
XD
I'd just do arctic liq 360 since it can be top mounted
And the keep and eye on the 850w often goes on sale for same/less than 750w
But custom loop would be so cool and it’s like the one pc building sector I haven’t touched yet lol
Idk I’ll think about it
I’m going to be making 450 dollars from building some PCs
So expensive to water cool
If you're gonna build a new pc would you not go 5900x or 5800x?
Because of ipc improvements
If budget fit's ofc?
But I'd do that over custom loop
yeahh doesn't make sense to build a custom loop for a $300 cpu

I joined into air cooler Gang xd
Tbh just looking for excuse to do custom loop
Get 5900x or 5800x and get an arctic liq
Do it anyway lol
Gonna be like 400$ or so for just custom loop tho
custom loop is so satisfying
I'd custom loop my 3700x and 3070 if I didn't have other things to do
Even using soft tubing would look good
I’m pretty sure byski full kit is like 250 or something
Blocks aren't terribly expensive yeah
but like he's doing video editing that $250 would be so much better spent towards a 5900x
Yeah but would be way better getting 5900x or something with an aio or something
So do both
Hmm if crypto goes back up again and I make big profit then maybe lol
miners need real job 
Make that 3060 ti go brr mining atm tho ness yes?
It is real job lol
Using mining to fund my keeb
Hey, I have both
i am a miner and i also have a real job 
How expensive is you're keeb gonna be lol
lol I want to make lil rig for mining but eh 
$300 too much
sheesh
👀 wtf
You've got 6900xt? That's like 10$/day
If only you knew how easy it was to blow 300 on a keeb
how does 2070 super do with mining?
Good
3070 , 6900xt and 6800xt
sold 3060 already so
if i get it for 250, how long will it be to pay it back
Hmm with current rates of payment I think 2 months?
when will it crash?
Probably main thing is when you can’t mine Eth anymore which I’ve heard is speculated to be in July
ok
That's like 20$+/day
Yikes screw that lol
im planning on loaning money from my parents to buy the pc and then giving it back from mining and working over the summer
im rich i dont need mining lol
Other thing is that some of the parts take months or years to get too
😦
Oof f that
Yeah some keycaps sets will go into group buy then you have to wait a year to get them
Alright but idk who would complain about a free to 20$+/day in your case
lol please do not borrow money from your parents for a mining rig
I'm too lazy to take care of that rig 
It's set and forgot lol
I don't wanna burn my workplace while I sleeping lol
ehh not true
Well not fully but it's not much work
Temps are low enough lol
i've had to deal with random restarts due to forgetting to disable windows update, power outages, windows decided to throw tantrum
it's not much work though true
I always cutting off electricity when I left home or workplace
Ohh i forgot how common power outages are in NA
hey stop reminding me europe is better
Sorry 

exists in free healthcare X)
"free"
Well yeah it's taxed but I'd prefer that over the us system
The budget for just the cpu and mobo is 600?
Or whole pc
Uhh idk probably 11500 b560 is probably the best you can get
My Says reboot and select proper boot device
New build?
i would look to see if you can find a 1650 or so gaming pc, gpus really help while editing
1650 are in stock and not too pricey at best buy currently
@elfin flame yes, you want your friend to use an igpu for quicksync 
Ohhh how much of budget left?
Depends completely on budget lol
Yeah it really does
Yes this is true
well in that case z490 would probably be what i recommend for chipset
yeah
11400 and b560
b560 is ok
Or 10600k and z490 if oc is wanted
B560 offers exact same features as z boards with a locked cpu anyway
ye thats what i would do for an intel in case you do want to oc
yeah all im saying is for over clocking
My expertise is more AMD honestly
okok
well what board are you thinking abou t
I would recommend 10700/11400 and b560
Start with cpu not board tbh
Yeah
10700 and b560 or 11400 then
I'd do 10700 cuz better multi core
yeah its a good starter
Rommy you/ your friend doesn't live near a micro center do yous?
honestly the hardest thing to get for my build was the graphics card the rest was pie
lucky
https://www.amazon.com/NZXT-Kraken-X63-280mm-RL-KRX63-01/dp/B082DYR132 That kraken i can put whatever i want animated on that screen of it?

yes with the software
Great 10700 is dirt cheap there
i have goku on mine
Which one is this?
this is the one i have https://www.nzxt.com/products/kraken-z73
No you need the z series kraken but I would recommend just getting cheaper aio and getting a small monitor you can mount in your case for cheaper
oh he right i didnt check if it was the z73
im special
the most expensive commission i had was 3900$
it was fun
very nice cherry blossom build
Is there also with 2 pieces than 3?
@elfin flame is a matx board okay?
wish I could get gpus cause I would love to do some commissioned builds. Rn I build office PCs for my dad
Yeah i have EVGA connections so i just get regular emails about gpu batches
but it means that most of the cards i build with are off course EVGA
@tranquil flint It was big the one you show me, i liked more with the 2 fans
Yessssir b560m tuf 150 at mc yess
Matx isn’t really going to be much more portable than atx but ok
yes there is a 240 mm and 280mm
Too many builds I want to do and not enough wallet
Yes, i found it now.
Oh i have no wallet either its ok
I need cheaper hobbies
I do other peoples build and havent even finished my personal build;(
Probably wont for while
Lol same I built 25 computers before I built one for myself
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/yp6Zy4 tada, manual prices are from mc, could always go 11400 if too much for them(also cheaper at mc)
honestly though, it sucks
all i have for my personal build is the case card and cpu
But now I want more builds ahhhhh
im still waiting on the rest of the crap
Yw
yeah i do too but no one has commissioned me in a hot minue
Nah I want more builds for myself lol
i have just used wifi cards in like three of the builds ive done
Yeah but i dont make money on me
i want to finish my build
My personal computer is a mac so i cant do much in way of gaming which sucks hence why i need to finish my personal build
Yeah i have a finders fe
fee*
Sad, turns out nobody in high school can afford pc or I just don’t know enough people
Im in highschool and build
HS people can't usually afford PCs
Nobody else besides me*
your cubicle in heaven will be weird asf
ive built one or two for hs
They'd spend their money on a car
they were like 500 builds but still
feel that one
Yes many tech hobbies are all consuming
More of everything
Keeb is already all consuming of my wallet
I thought might be a plus especially if they want portible :)
Headphones mics mice mousepad keyboard switches dacs amps
Monitors
Desks
Chairs
Smth like an ergo chair 2 sounds so nice but expensive
I'm going do that when gpus are available again lol
You sit your rear on them
Like 400$ for an ergo chair 2 but ye
Matx?
Herman Miller just overpriced >:p
well 1000$ for the chair i want
Nice
Get an ergo chair 2 >:D
B560m tuf will be perfect then
Its a corsair chair so naturally its through the roof
Uhhh
hello
Ask the question lol
yeah i wont but i want to
Is trolls today?
They all have the same theme of profile pic, they say anyways a lot , they talk about PS5 and 3090
Own crypto company
You literally tried this one yesterday
No? it dont?
Or komone mesh chair
Bruh
this is a build for my friend, very light gaming, minecraft with mods, roblox, stuff like that: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/FireDestroyer53/saved/YGVTYJ
The Corsair racing style chair is just dumb
Also new to discord 844251923870646282
Private list
It's the same company that makes the racing style chairs
oh sorry
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wmwfBc ok this is it
No disc drive then
Yeah but i want name brand
Look familiar
Komine mesh chair thooo
Basically same time too
They have any extra budget? Like 30$ more?
It's literally like the same company that makes those chairs that gets rebranded
https://youtu.be/9Yhc6mmdJC4
Gaming chairs have become prevalent, but shameless copy-pasting by most "manufacturers" has led to a stagnant industry with poor value vs. even cheap office chairs.
Sponsor: Buy Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut on Amazon (https://geni.us/1D8Eeq) or Hydronaut paste (https://geni.us/Fsray)
This video includes mini-reviews of several office chairs tha...
what u want to add?
total is 560 budget
no
Better ssd and case
no
yes causal $1500 chair
Embody is decent
lol
ye
ok which ones
Hermann Miller expensive bois
they need some better material
yeah drop it in the sink and soak it
It’s just one guy that makes it his personal duty to try the same trolls every day, talks exactly the same too and uses the same theme of profile pic
Heh
then why did you ask
I'm just having to block too many people recently
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Wr4Qbh or the 256gb Version of mp33 and better case
1 in a million chance to happen again
ok thanks. this should work
why not
Everything
if my mac is not working thats what i do
Budget builds are budget builds
@tranquil flint you eat it
Don't waste a perfectly good big mac
burn it XD
Anyone here know a good prebuilt pc that's less than or equal to 700?
yeah
yeah that is a good thread
Do you really have the time to create an entire new discord account every day but not enough time to come up with some creative new ideas
@little osprey please stop
bruh
go lick your monitor that will fix it
Man I see you here almost every day and you literally say all the same stuff
I promise
@muted patio got a sec?
Eh, whatever
Your brother also owns crypto company and 3090 and PS5 digital?
Yw
yayaya he bloc'
@muted patio since you got the non-digital p500a, is there still a fan/rgb hub like the digital version, or is the inside of the case front panel just empty there?
You look older than your supposed dad 
MikeOGame
he banend?
Kek
He'll be back.....

Jp to the rescue yes
That's the guy with a million alts
Heh
Who got banned?
How tf is this guy not ip banned
He comes pretty much same time every day
why did u boost when u a regular 
Who got banned?
a troll
Troll alt
Hmm o think we should name them the redneck troll
Noone important lol
No Hub. I got a deep cool one for the fans
4k 244hz 
3090 
lmao guy was on some organics
3090, and then the mobo they washed and/or spilled apple juice on
ye
Pretty sure austin evans did a vid on if washing your motherboard was safe lol
Hi
Bruh
amazon rarely gets used here
sams club aint bad either
Wait what
Jpppp we need
What’s going o
@muted patio
its back
What???
good lord
yo read his bio
I’m confused
how do you make accounts this fast
Me?
or are they premade
@wide sparrow back with v racist bio this time
What’s going on
@autumn wolf
can anyone see how old the account is?
@subtle halo you there? Stupid racist alt here again
Hmm is Theo there
Got em
yay vinatge
Vintage typing
noice
Did you mute instead this time?
No
i mean a few @ and 2 seconds to ban isn't much either
Dun worry about it
So yeah has to be using vpn cuz disc ban bans the ip iirc
Dun worry about bad people lol
yeah so its mostly impossible to not be ussing a vpn
Most likely VPN
Pro tip since we've dealt with ppl like this in the past. Don't engage with them. They want attention. We'll be on alert to ban/kick/etc alt accounts.
But yeah... just ignore them.
yea lets move on tho, he shouldn't get anymore attention
Thx
yea exactly what he said lol
Lmao but discord web app
they could but ti would onlyh work for the people with the actual application
in the future we can ban people irl with microchips embedded in ourselves 
Not without disc downloaded on pc and logged in with that account
No way to get your specs etc from browser that would be such a security issue lol
sounds like a suicide bomber to me
imagine getting your microchip hacked then you die
Hmm keeb gang too?
yessir!
then it explodes
But what if they start off with web app lol
there must be an explosion
ikki68 aurora gb is arriving to my door in 1-2 months
Does the 'underside' of the front panel look empty? Just wondering because I'm not sure if the fan hub on the digital version is built in or like stuck on
I have gmmk pro coming by end of June hopefully
gmmk pro eh
what switches with?
my cpu is supposed to arrive next week
Not home right now but ill check later
Im going to put in some nk creams
gmmk pro is a good kit for avid keebists tbh
Get ink blacks XD
It’s going to be my first custom keeb lol
Keeb <kidney XD
Yeah probably just put them in the plate and actuate them 1000-2000 times
they are scratchy out of the box, probably one of the scratchiest switches lol
not bad
Cool
Yeah I was told to break them in then lube
you definitely should, since super scratchy and stuff
1000-2000 times
how long does that take
any reason why you went for nk creams instead of say, ink blacks or durock pom linears?
Mb ness likes his kidneys in his body XD
I was recommended them lol, durock poms look ok too
to fully break them in it's more like 5-20k presses tbh

lol yeah they're more expensive than the usual switch
Was looking at alpacas too but not instock anywhere, if I can get some maybe I’ll pick up those.
Break in for creams is 5k minimum
And u need films
I wouldve gone for durock poms or tangerine 67g
I was told no films for creams by leyo
not necessarily since creams already have tight housings
Nah she said she doesn't like the height diff and that's the worst bit so she gonna suffer with full size keeb
I haven’t bought any switches yet but liked tangerines was just told I’d never get any and yeah I could go for poms
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Insanely smooth, nice sound
what sound profile are you looking for in linears?
Not too heavy
i love the sound of lavenders
Mb eventually, i only built her pc in November before that it was always laptop so never know
or tangies, or that other one i forgot the name
Idk tbh I have mx reds but they are mx reds, I decided I would buy something, try it, maybe get money and start try other other switches too
Start linear switch collection
good idea will you be buying 10 switches or for a whole board?
Like infinity
Idk I wanted to just buy for full board prob
noice
Banana splits (filmed), tangeine 67g lubed + filmed, stock tangerine 67g, nk cream lubed + filmed, durock poms lubed
What a horrible sound test
Ill do a better one later
for my 2nd build I'm getting tactile u4t after 6 months of linears
just to try something new and eventually buy more keyboards and switches when i get a job lol
Yeah I’ve never tried a tactile so I think would be interesting
Don't roast me but I've a razor black widow 
I just dont even have a hot swap board yet
My favorite tactiles are koalas or kiwis
I've only tried gateron browns lol

i can barely feel the bump
My friends don't when I'm in disc call lok
Lol
discord has a noise cancelling feature i forgot the name
Krisp is ass
From this test I think that my favorite were bottom right or banana split, followed by dark stem tangerines
Bottom right were durock poms
Nah krisp just cuts off the user using it and takes a good bit of cpu i think too
Ill do a less scuffed one later
btw you shouldn't base soundtests as reference since it's entirely different
Yeah I know
I found this switch test kit thing but was advised against it lol
im back
but yeah i thought of buying durock poms but got tactiles instead to have a variety
I have the linear laser thingy switches
poms very nice
optical, I'm guessing gamer keyboard?
lol guessed it
i like it
but honestly
unless im playing a very intense game, it feels no different than the butterfly switches on the mac
like for typing and usual work its just kinda the same
although it does catch my frick ups faster
Can some one help me through reapplying thermal paste
did you already take the cooler out?
Why would I take the cpu out
before you take the cooler off it helps if it's heated so the thermal paste isn't so sticky
i meant cooler my bad
Ok so should I do a cinebench
I am doing it because my Temps were like 86
Which they are usually 50 c
So could a stress test damage it if my Temps are bad
yeah just heat up the cpu then turn the machine off and take out the heatsync
if you pull it out room temperature you could potentially take the cpu out from the motherboard too
Yeah that's fine
sure
Twist when taking off
yoo I'm regular +
Don't pull straight
I'm happy
Nice
is it time on the server or amount of comments?
Also not really just helps a tiny bit if it's warmer
Ok
Amount of chat
ah okay, i haven't taken out a cooler personally so better advice
It's now 71c
oh boy ima bout to get banned for misinformation
Pff chat determines rank
oh nvm
Twist is all you need to do
No matter how sticky, as long as it's thermal paste and not gorilla glue, twisting will get the cooler off.
Pulling straight up is when you have issues with pulling the CPU out of it's socket and such
Just twist and it'll come off lmao
Nt h1 isn't that sticky
Stock amd/Intel paste is usually the really sticky bois
I have already changed it when I got a new cooler
what cooler are you using?
Cooler master hyper 212
When I was re-pasting my d15, nt-h1 didn't really stick tbh
It was doing really good then one day my Temps were like 20c higher
no reason?
Cross pattern
It's a bit overpriced and that case has like no airflow
What do I clean it with
seems like 460 chats you can be a regular +
Can I just use a paper towel
You could
Just doesn't get all of it off
has other chemicals
91% good yeah
Ok
Just use kitchen roll
just use high concentration alcohol then good enough
Or paper towels, whatever you call it
i used those alcohol prep pads, they work very good
Lol
Yeah but one use and expensive
how do i vip?
Pretty sure cholorox wipes would leave some not so nice things behind
Guys, seriously
Good enough right
i already forgot their name
Is clorox wipes like a disinfectant or is it just bleach in a wipe, both sound not good tho
really? I got a box of 100 for 5 bucks, individually wrapped
They have bleach
it can probably corrode the cpu tbh
bleach bad
Is it OK if there is a lil thermal paste on the edges like the side
yea no problem
I have returned yet again
whatsup
not much
I think a bit of both
I know it leaves behind some residue
it's like soapy ime
I usually either let it dry or wipe it with dry cloth, since it's usually a liquid residue for me
ive never tried applying and removing thermal paste because my dad didn't trust me 
lol
lmao
I use clorox wipes to clean my desk pretty often
neat for getting rid of dust and various residues from spills and such
6 years of saving and videos from youtube, none of the pc building guides have been applied 
yeah i used them to clean my laptop all the time
good but don't spin the fans much from what I've heard because electric or something
Ohh fair enough, when i looked for them i found 10 for 10 or so
ye
Neither sound good anyway lol
wifi so slow here i can't even see emojis lol
i have a aio so i dont gotta do that
nah, i get 100mb but I'm sleeping in our different house
dust gets on rad easier tbh
yeah your right
since i had to travel to another state to get vaccinated
not US, not covid vaccine
lol
but i dont necessarily need to take the heat sync off, just the radiator
2 for 5, hot dayamn
imagine having aio's and radiators 
My wife is a nurse, we have high grade alcohol lol
kek
my high grade alcohol is not for cleaning 😉
Clean enough
ye
Neither is mine
is 100% alcohol available anywhere?
My legs lol
Not from us so
pretty sure I have some isopropyl alcohol wipes somewhere I could use but
the wipes that came with NT-H2 is op
couldn't wait a week for wipes 🙂
Wouldn't be worth the import tax lol
Is that bad
wat
15 dollars shipping and 30 days in customs...good times 🙂
How much paste
wat
remember what thermal paste does
it doesn't really hurt to have them anywhere
Ok
anywhere that's not contacts
hell, you could probably smear thermal paste on the fans and not have much performance loss :P
yeah like on top of your storage
How much thermal paste do I put
And 15 in import duty lol a bottle of rubbing alcohol is was cheaper like 5€
hey you twist the cpu in right? 😆 I seriously had that question once

ye
thermal paste time!
twist the cooler off
twisting the cpu while in socket = broken pins
no just twist the whole mobo itll work😆
Thats perfect
Oh
x pattern does work quite well
That dude told me rice
thats what i do in my commissions
lemme find it
Should I wipe it
nO
meh
plop the cooler down
more paste is better than not enough paste anyways
Add a tiny drop more
I have a tube of thermal paste, intel stock cooler, sata cables and 3 case fans
ye
this is fun
https://youtu.be/EUWVVTY63hc
We've all seen people say "that's too much thermal paste." Most the time, it turns out, they're wrong. This test benchmarks thermal paste application methods.
Ad: EVGA's 19th Anniversary Giveaway is here: http://geni.us/NZnUrfn
Article: https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/3346-thermal-paste-application-benchmark-too-much-thermal-paste
We used T...
Cooler is down
didn't gamersnexus test different kinds of pattern of thermal paste and almost all of them looked the same after putting on the cooler?
Asus prime b560m-A
I5-11400
8x2 Corsair Vengence ram
RX580 Gpu
550 W power supply is it enough ?
How do I screw again I forgot
machine is still broken
exactly that video
In the socket too yes? Cool the pins
which exact 550w psu
Ye
How do I screw again
wat
cross pattern?
well i mean..kinda hard to describe it
Cross pattern lol
Bottom right then top left
Yeah that's fine
Don't tighten all the way first time tho
oh we are talking about the aio......
one line then another line
Just regular air cooler
the master 212
🤣
ew
i got the stock amd cooler wdym ew 
But any majority of things with screws should be done with cross pattern if it's available
Thermal paste very tasty snack too
Stock cooler on amd is okay
i also cross pattern one screw to even out the coil 
212 evo
overpriced garbage
212 overpriced and outperformed by gammaxx 400 for example
A quick view on different application methods including the most common products and also a look on how liquid metal spreads under pressure.
finally found it
but this is why I like x method
Interesting
and also the vetroo V5
wait, its overpriced?
That looks like it's worth a watch
how much is it right now?
212 is overpriced for what it is
Look, I did the X and it worked perfectly
30$ iirc
Was just proving that even a 23$ cooler can outperf
yeye
I got it on sale for Like 14
wasn't it like 16-20usd?
The Amazon sale thing
what good aircoolers then
It was like 14
Nice
bruh
Ya lol
Ooof
how
It's it good
Yikes
Thought that was 212 black price?
one thing to remember is the type of cpu because some do have areas that get hotter but dont have heat sensors where it gets hot

lol
I need to get a better case lol
might as well sell the cooler
Im using the 212s younger sibling because nothing else fits in my case
NOT happy with the temps
id like an aio but I'm broke and don't even have powerful parts to generate high temperatures
man, if only we bought online :)
aio sad
Yikes
what's after regular +?
Regular x
How do I know which way the fan works
One has a arrow one doesn't
my corsair's frame side is where it blows out from
Like where the logo is
also, logo is usually front, the frame is usually back
Is frame this
can't vouch for that, both sides logo, frame is the back
thats air going in side
you see the crossbars
bro, i thought this was general
but yea
frame facing inside the case* for intake? or reverse
wat
case
I'm confused
no frame = front = air go in
Is frame out take
yes
For intake should the frame be facing in or out
For intake
and if you have fans on top for outtake then frame facing out
yes
What are the little rubber things that go too mount the cpu fan
They go in the screw slot
can't see pictures lol wifi incredibly slow that's why im just chattin on discord sorry
K
I hope my Temps will be better
And I was wondering is it normal for my fans too speed up super fast the slow down
plugged in the first time?
Yeah it is all fans need some momentum when starting up
Td500 mesh will help that a good bit
I take back what I said about dell using less proprietary parts, like everything in this is proprietary.....

Fair enough then
Nice snatch it
is it worth selling my bottom 10% 5600x + b550 aorus elite for $450, then buying an i5-11600k + z590 tuf for $418?
similar performance but i gain igpu, wifi 6, bluetooth, and $32
board has 1 hdmi 1 dp wonder if i can run my monitors off of those and use dgpu as render device like i do on my laptop
I would personally, since wifi and Bluetooth worth 25 bucks by itself, and i like to run some of my monitors off igpu too
can you still use g-sync if you have monitor hooked up to igpu but using dgpu as render device?
mind testing that for me?
Yeah I can when I get home in about 2 hours
I dun think it works.
alternatively assuming my 1440p165 monitor is hooked up via displayport does intel uhd 750 have variable refresh
i can toss one of my 3070s into the 5600x + b550 and sell it
Sounds good
I'd say so yeah
@gusty nova is that the Corsair Obsidian 1000X case or something like that?
Looking to get Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to a build on a Gig Z170X-UD3. Any suggestions? I know I can use usb but I also have three SATA ports not being used
alienware uses less proprietary parts. Dell branded desktops have ALWAYS been proprietary, at least over the past decade
Fair
i guess steve just... didnt know that
and got worked up about it
lol
ive been working with those systems for years
Hey Mr1111 thanks for the help yesterday got the monitor going
That's how it is now. When it's done it will be an open case hidden behind a picture frame.
alienware still uses proprietary front panel IO, and i believe the CPU cooler mounting is also proprietary @stoic island
but thats it
Hi demon
motherboard is a mATX, standard PSU plugins, 4 pin fan headers. etc etc
thanks for this. now all I can hear in my head is Gamers nexus saying sus over and over
Yea, that's fair, but proprietary front IO as in they use different cables for front io cluster?
yeah its not the typical 4x2 front panel
ah weird, still compatible with normal boards?
Very sus
(still has the 2-pin pwr switch?)
probably, its like a front panel IO + USB + audio all in one single strip all going into a single cable
so you'd have to test the pins
huh
damn
but thats the stock internals of a alienware
minus the black PSU cables
cause i took the PSU out
Fair
and replaced it with a different one
But I assume you could just basically paperclip test it on the mobo side to see which two pins bridged turns the PC on
yeah
Reason: Bad word usage
:(
not when it boosts...
And there are the reports of 90c on stock cooler, so I assume hotspots will play a part too
yeah
Just generally not a fun time...
