All depends on budget if you should go team blue or red tbh
It has 8 lol?
Possibly one of the laptop i7s are quad core but i thought 6c and 8c
$2k ish range, and I already have a GTX 1650.
lol alright
Then Ryzen 9 5900x should fit nicely
actually yeah I just remembered the cursed i7-11370H exists
Icky
@fossil cedar @earnest olive check ur dm
Yes that's an icky laptop chip
i was a league player though
🥲
but only for a few months
I'll ask if I can pin it
$8000?
rm
😮
what's rm
its 2000
1900
Malaysia ringgit
malaysian mony
Oh not too bad then
Yikes
ye:(
My laptop has some 8th gen i5 😎
I should have choosen a rtx 2080ti
I just realised that its better than the rtx 3070
wait i think
its
like
something called
super max q
its a 20 series
Hope to see the 3060 drop before xmas. I want to get my sister a nice card.
well its better than mine
can I be your sister
lmao
ROFL!!!\
what do you have
max-q means severely power constrained
asus tuf dash 15 rtx 3070
yeah lol no way
together with intel 10th i9
your 100w 3070 is better than a 2080 super max-q
my dad uses a laptop
an msi 2080 super max q w intel 10th i9
better than mine
:)))
better cpu worse gpu
100fps + on warzone with this laptop
Laptops are ok. but they're a pain to upgrade.
gaming laptops are so crappy
they r for work
I don't use my laptop for gaming often
only when staying over with the gf
can't be bothered to lug my tower over
I brought my 5 year old school laptop with i7-7700hq and GTX 1050 and 60hz screen
I lasted 5 days before I gave in and bought a new one
Not bad for a school kid.
gaming on that thing was miserable
it was fine at the time yeah
but not anymore
I'm spoiled now
I've tasted 3080 and 1440p 165hz monitor
I can't go back to 1080p low 25 fps gaming
it only took 5 days for my sanity to break
As for my sister, she's living with me. I can game on it while she's at school. 😛
as soon as the new laptop arrived I went from an 8 loss streak to a 4 win streak
nice!!
True that! even the 1650 cal pull that off. Though it will get hot if you don't have a good case.
as a kid I was always happy with 20 fps at lowest settings
now I get physical pain from 30 fps
LOL
tried to play breath of the wild on switch
had to put it down after 10 mins as the 900p 20 fps gave me a piercing headache
try mixing music with a quad core 6th gen intel. Now that's pain.
well
I edited 1080p videos on a dual core 5th gen intel running at 2.4ghz
and a 5400 rpm hard drive
no ssd
you poor soul. there isn't enough motrin for that headache.
scrubbing through timeline with multiple video/audio channels and having to wait for that damn hard drive to load
took 20 minutes to render each minute of 1080p 30 fps video
144hz bae
pretty much any render project would be relegated to overnight
Are you a windows victim?
yeah, I would like to switch to linux if it supported the games I play
What games?
nothing would save that laptop as a video editing machine though
specs too low
well my main game used to work on linux but got axed recently
that would be league
Ah yes one of the last java holdouts.
league was written in java?
thought it was c++
doesn't matter what language it's written in though, it's the worst code ever
it's a mix of both.
you could probably make a less buggy program in scratch
Thus linux no longer supports it after lts 20.04
shoutout to that one youtuber that literally makes a living off of showcasing league bugs
I have a bit of linux experience
I usually plat Starcraft ii or MWL.
used it for NASM programming
was fun
ran a linux mint VM
but I can't run linux as a daily driver for now
I have 2 pure linux boxes. a 6th gen intel i5 and a 8th get i7. both running Ubuntu. then there's the windows victim for basic web browsing.
LOL 6 here. but I work nights. TTYL
yeah I hope one day I'll be able to switch
not really a fan of windows but it's the only solution for now
Getting the 5600x should be good
for what

I’m getting the 5600x cpu
again for what purpose bruh
Gaming bruh and casual use
gaming
no it's not good value
i5 11400/11400F better
i kinda wanna vent this, cause god why does people keep looking at amd cause ryzen 3000 was so good
i mean 5000 series is still good, but value isn't there unless you get a 5900x
Bro I’m on a budget and I already have a B550M auros elite
It scares me that the i9 9900kf is worse than the i9 9900k
The well in 3d games
uhhh, where did you get your info in?
Yt
9900K and KF has exact perf, the KF just lacks iGPU
Unless your "worse" is a few fps, which is a margin of error
So shouldn't it be better because it gets rid of it?
Ahhh i get u
It is better than the 11400/11400F in performance, yes, but it's like 100$ or so more than the Intel counterpart
I'm just sick of people wanting amd all the time, so I might have been a bit pissy
What’s wrong with amd
^
We don't shill for one brand or the other
AMD has meh value for mid-end for this gen
Both good perf lol
Wait but AMD used to be cheaper than intel now it’s the opposite 😂
Yeah
Lol
That's a while?
I would say 3 years is a while
AMD was cheaper than Intel for a few years
That's basically an eternity kek
I had a 2060 before the pandemic and I sold it for below RRP
Ye up to 2020
😔
Not all
Yh its pretty crazy cause AMD was going bankrupt near 2011 and Intel was so happy
Question for all the big brains out there: is there a way for me to put in a new ssd into my pc and use it as my c drive(m.2 ssd) to replace my current c drive but keep my current ssd(sandisk) without reformatting it? I want to keep every thing in my sandisk drive but change to a new boot drive if that makes sense
Yh you can I think
I think you could just go about that by reinstalling windows to that drive
It should automatically deleted windows from your current boot drive and install it to the new one
You can recover it on the new drive
But that's a theory
I haven't actually tested that
At least, it sounds plausible
@stoic island Sorry to @ but do you have any idea about this? I think this is up your alley
Id also like to know
Okay so say i instal windows on the m.2 and use that as my boot drive and i wanna instal a client, would i be able to instal that client on the new m.2 and use the same file location from the old ssd?
Im gonna use a 5600x with a gt 710
if you're planning for a build
make sure it's enough for a good gpu lol
not just that
No, so i wanna instal my Runelite client(for runescape) on my new ssd, but alot of progress and game files are saved on my old ssd, so if i move runelite to a different ssd, can i still keep the same file location for everything to keep saving to
no, the drive lettering would be different
all you have to do is just transfer the files to the new ssd and tell the client where to access the files
just like with every steam game
^
Ok, nice, so do you think i can do that if i instal the nee ssd with windows and boot into that, will i have to format the old ssd before i can access it?
if you want to access old ssd as another drive, not necessarily i think
but you won't be able to access the space that the old windows already occupied
thats what I remember, at least
don't quote me on it
Ok, that makes sense, i just wanna know if i should backup the files in an external drive before
but you can still assign programs and stuff to use em
Ha i should be doing backups but im lazy lol
i just use synchredible
one time setup and you can make it run regularly
ez
or, pay for backblaze
I see, ty
The fact that im pretty sure all of us seen every single one of those is sad
that's why I made a fun little game out of it lol
discord is having issues rn
How does one play the bingo
the joke is when ppl spend so much more on a mobo compared to cpu, since you dont need a god tier mobo for a nice cpu, only exception imo is like server boards and x299 boards, since sometimes the cpus are really cheap but the mobos still arent
Do you check it off when someone sends their list?
sips why is p12 pack only neutral good?

I'd assume so
it's good
so it balances out some of the rest to create neutral
listen man it was really hard to line them up so that rows and columns would work
lol
lol we should all just have a bingo night with that board lol
yesss
I feel like me and sunbreaker are the only ones who actually got that msrp 3060ti fe here
But so many people put it in their lists
Yo quick question, to upgrade a new GPU what else would I have to check. Like would I also have to upgrade the RAM?
nah if you wanna upgrade gpu all you gotta do is ddu the drivers for best expirience, unplug it, and throw new one in, and install the new drivers
What causes the black screen of death?
many things
like I'm confused about what caused my pc to do it.
because i don't want to buy something and it not work.
Literally could be anything
Grr whats that app that tells you error codes
im thinking about buying a new cpu
whocrashed
i have one of those beep code things
Use event viewer
try plugging in your monitor into your mobo instead of the gpu
see if that changes anything
i dont have a igpu
oh shoot forgot about that
i might just buy a new cpu and see if that works
Dont you have a 1060 or is that someone else?
nope
damn
would a new cpu work?
i honestly dont think its the cpu
try full power off then on
Try resetting CMOS
like make sure its fully shut down
i did reset cmos
Like you pulled the battery for like 5-10 minutes?
yes
yesterday
could it be psu
?
also i don't think its the GPU because i used the other ports on it and it didnt work
wut?
That doesnt mean that the gpu is fine
Are you able to test the gpu in another PC?
For 400$ like lmaoo, someone had a 3070 vision in their list convinced they was getting that for 600$ x)
3060ti msrp pipedream
it's mostly a unicorn tho
i mean he was there
since like 8pm
and he dm'd me and then i showed up at like 12 lol
That's so messy wtf lol
how lol
wait also whats wrong with nzxt aio
they are expensive
but they dont seem to actually be horrible
bad perf for price
You can’t get bingo because you can’t have 5k apus and 11900k
its a sin bc it happens so much with high tier processors
5k apus are starting to sell from the major retailers
All the words
id say a 5600g is pretty good
nah
nzxt aio = looks, meh performance for the $$$
for all the cache it loses its performance isnt too far off
especially because you get it for the dGPU not core performance
yeah at that price
at similar price they seem to be the same
and in cpu performance its about 3 to 7%
in r20 even less
i mean in gaming perf cpu wise the 5600g performs basically like a 3700x
i just sent you a link
thats synthetic benchmarks
real world perf is different
RYZEN 5 5600G vs RYZEN 7 5700G vs RYZEN 5 5600X || PC GAMES TEST || 1080P || 1440P ||
#ryzen55600x #ryzen55600g #ryzen75700g
DRIVER-
GeForce Graphic driver 471.11
System
OS Windows 10 pro
CPU RYZEN 5 5600G @ stock - Asus Rog Strix X570
CPU RYZEN 7 5700G @ stock - Asus Rog Strix X570
CPU R...
look at these real world benchmarks
in this specific game, its over %10 different
which game
i don't understand the rows
and in like warzone its %10
neither do i
64gb ram is unreasonable reasonable?
what is reasonable acceptable lol
either way it isnt meant to compete with a 5600x
you get a pretty competent igp for 50 dollars less
ik but im saying the perf difference is def there
find one with that potency in the price difference
comparing just cpu perfomance doesnt make sense when that isnt the point of the g
i'd choose i5-10400 + used gtx 970 over r5 5600g lol
if you dealhunt a bit i5-10400 + gtx 970 is certainly possible for the $260 they're asking for the 5600g
while being in a totally different performance class
the r5 5600g cpu side loses to the 3600 in some tasks due to the gimped cache
nah you could do it for 260 for sure
i've seen a few 10400s for 100 or less
microcenter sold them brand new retail for 110 for a bit
some 970s are going down to 160
yeah i used like 130 for the 970
Could you do 10400 + 970 in a $500 pc 
i mean it's possible
would be slightly more difficult to do than 5600g due to higher psu requirement but
the performance difference is worth it
If my friend gets a pc I’m trying to think what he could get for sub 700-800
I actually have no idea what his budget is tbh
the best price i saw on hws was $150 for i5-10400 + msi b460m pro bundle
Sheesh
that would definitely enable a build like that for $500
Wait I shouldn’t buy a $50 1050ti off of wish?
i didn't use super cutting edge prices and included some retail parts and still got pretty close to $500
No you definitely should, and take video of every step as evidence for when the package contains either a fake gpu or a pair of sunglasses
just going to assume the 10400 won't be stressed too much pushing ~60fps for the 970 and the stock cooler will suffice
but yeah could definitely toss a $20 cooler in there if budget isn't extremely tight
10400f + 970 is obviously going to dumpster the gaming performance of a 5600g system
imo 5600g/5700g pretty much exists for the tiniest sff builds that don't have room for any sort of dgpu
and they are best in class at that niche
but for regular desktop users should not even be a consideration
maybe if they drop prices eventually
Pretty sure macrium reflect or a different tool allows you to transfer windows to a different drive
i used macrium reflect yesterday
worked flawlessly
copied a windows install from 500gb ssd to 1tb ssd
just be aware that the main partition won't resize itself automatically, you have to do that yourself
the software allows you to but it's not intuitive
@waxen pasture ping me if you want help with this
what would be the best 500w psu for a budget build?
How budget?
Segotep for budget budget, cx for budget
Nah not rn
Wat
There's a pog supernova on sale, lemme grab link
80+ gold b tier fully modular 650 for $50
Legit can't beat it rn
I mean
I think the segoteps even cost more tbh
The b5 could be worth checking out too, altho I think it went back up in price
Segotep gp is also gold, 50$ for 600w
Ketchup and mustard cables tho right?
But cx is still a better PSU than both of them
Really?
Ye
Isnt cx b tier too?
Gold b tier
What's the supernova?
Just b tier
Heck, segotep gets a higher rating than the g+ lmao
But cx nicer if you can get cx
What's price on it rn?
70$ for 650w
A-gf went up in price iirc
Still like 81 on amazon
Also I just found the best 650 for the price rn lol, beats out supernova, cx and sego
EVGA 100-N1-0650-L1, 650 N1, 650W, 2 Year Warranty, Power Supply https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LYRXRDI/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glc_fabc_20DF41D91K3CKNGRCB5N?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Its on sale too
Great deal for a bomb
Otherwise you have to step up in price to be able to afford a P-GM
Can't even find a-gf lmao
I'll link
That means nothing tho lol
I mean I think it's out of stock
MSI MPG Series A650GF Power Supply (PSU): 650 Watt, Full Modular, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, 10 Year Warranty https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08PDV45F8/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glc_fabc_JMZHS2XXNZW55JN7EVCT?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Shows in stock for me
Meh its just a nice feature not to have those, not a deal breaker, just a luxury
Meh i suppose
It looks cleaner but not worth the extra
Mr1 idk how it doesn't show in stock for you
It's same price tho
Just a tiny same tier difference
Sego is gold b tier
Supernova normal b tier
Ig Amazon search just doesn't like me
Ye
Gud
I am building my first pc this is what I got so far any recommendations or anything I should change
@proud shard to start, what's the reason behind the motherboard and storage?
Yeah i would change the storage to sn550 or pilot e or something
I'm guessing the motherboard is cuz white
Ye but if no other specific reason
I would also with 3600cl18 ram at the minimum 3200 is slow for ryzen 5000
Just need them to reply now...
Also the case a bit oven-y looking
2x2tb WD blue just seems annoying tbh
There is a good mx500 2tb sale if they really need the storage
GPU pricing wack like always
I don’t know too much so I gathered sum parts I know and I think was good
@proud shard what's your budget?
Most I’ll go up too is 2500 maybe a little over
Do you live near a microcenter
Microcenter is 2 hours away from me and yea that’s tru I think 4tb is a lil over kill
How much storage do you need in total
I’m not gonna be doing too much mainly just playing games
1tb SSD should do just fine to start off tbh
Could grab that 2tb mx500 if you really wanted it
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3sNp68 @proud shard i would do this, plentyyy of storage too
Says Compatibility: Warning! These parts have potential issues or incompatibilities.
Yeah you can ignore that, 1st one is for bios flashback which at this point you probs won't have to do, the 2nd one just means the usb c port on the top of the case wouldn't work and 3rd just says it cant check for physical compatibility
Oh alright I might go with that setup u sent me ima do some research on Thoes parts thank you
why not b550 tomahawk?
itll let you use the usb c port on the case and it still looks nice
and still has bios flashback
and its still 10 bucks cheaper than that rog one after everything is all said and done
white build
lol
white makes everything expensive
I could go for the b550 tomahawk whatever you guys think is good I’ll most likely get because you guys know a lot more then me
I want a clean white set up
what are your opinions on this pc for $150
im trying to decide whether i could flip it or not
with upgrades of course
i mean it seems decent but also like i dont want random pc sitting in my house
I have multiple PCs and cases in my room and in my attic
I got too many cases and servers
true but I dont have that much data to store personally. I could think about convincing my parents to get it for a server tbh
Ahh yeah
Our icloud storage is full and a server would be useful to store photos and stuff
it only has 4gb of ram so i cant really run like a minecraft server or anything
DDR3 usually is pretty cheap
true
You could probably get an Optiplex 7020/9020 MT with an i7-4790 for around $150.
On second thought. Maybe a little more than that. Lol
In this market it most likely would be more expensive than that
But sometimes you can find deals on old Optiplexes from local schools or colleges
A local college was selling 8GB RAM 4th gen i5 SFF lenovos for like $50
That’s what I got back into pc again was with i5-4590. Optiplex 7020 SFF.
Then realize the power supply type and GPU limited to no power supply requirements. Lol
Then I started moving Dell motherboards between different Dell cases to use ATX psus
Optiplexes are fairly expensive for what they are these days because people liked to buy them and throw a decent gpu into them
Very true. I have seen way too expensive 3rd Gen intel and a GT 710 or gtx 1030.
so
I feel bad for some friends I saw who are like, it’s an i7! Yea. 2600. Lol
https://www.ebay.com/itm/124707996589 this looks decent besides the fact you cant use it for a server lol
Wait why not?
cause its smoll
True
I used a C2D Dell SFF for a file server
can you even fit a hard drive in it
I had a 3.5" and a 2.5"
Im pretty sure you can
I removed the CD drive
Bit of duct tape and you’re good to go
I threw a Core 2 Quad in there with 8GB of RAM
Worked pretty good for a super compact file server
Then I used spare parts and built a R5 2600 file server
sad lol
how do i get realtek audio drivers
i downloaded them from my mobos page what do i do wuth the file
ok
its doing it
then do i restart
Yes
Those SFFs are not bad, but for gaming you would be stuck at GTX 1650 low profile installed in 4x pcie slot, or a 1030 1 slot.
Installed in the 16x. Try to get the Mini Towers with full ATX power supplies.
Or any low profile gpu that does not require a 6 pin. But then there are some PCs that allow for full size gpu and still have the small psu. So weird
Isnt the galahad white cheaper than black?
And also the 4000d airlfow white
not that I know of, only just black out of stock iirc
and 4000d airflow I know white and black prices usually the same
White has been cheaper than black by like 10$ for a few week now
Thats more than 10% cheaper
thoughts on this? I feel like its a scam or sum. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Refurbished-HP-Pavilion-Gaming-R5-1650-Super-8GB-256GB-Gaming-Desktop-Tower/828808485?action=Create&rm=true
if its not than infinite money glitch hopefully it wont be patched
oh also
oh my
my main goal is to get a 3080, or maybe a 3090. but i can get a job next year. im wondering if i should get like a 2060 super/2070 or sum in that time frame
nothing at all wrong with that just enchantment table 
what would you suggest then?
I'd say 3060 at least as a start
2060/2070 you're looking at used, and most likely scalped right now
that i could still play MSFS 2020 with. or like at least 6gb of ram
which a 3060 will do
what if i took a 3050ti out of a laptop, somehow make it into a desktop compatable thing, and used it?
you never know
It's not possible
you tried?
not wrong
would you say there would be a bottleneck with a 3060 and a 5900x? i know thta ppl like to say that if its the same gen stuff, it isnt a bottleneck. im not sure tho
The 3060 would be a bottleneck instead in this case
I mean most gpus don’t even max out their cpus so it’s not too bad if you do mostly cpu intensive stuff
Well I mean, 3060 isn't quite enough to max the game out
But gpu bottleneck isn't a bad thing
I was wondering if there was a SSD(s) that could replace the HDD for a model HP laptop 15-db0xxx, and if so, what would be the sizes of the SSDs?
You just get fps capped if there's enough vram
2.5" sata drives should fit right in just fine
That's what the hdd is anyway, 2.5 inches sata
im not sure about all of this, at the end of the day. the chance of another skyrocket in gpu prices is very possible. and yes ik we are still among one
Any should work, but I recommend WD Blue, SU800 and MX500
Ahh, is there a best choice website to obtain one?
Alrighty, thank you soo much, I appreciate it a lot
yw
Is this one a smart choice, Crucial MX500 1TB 3D NAND SATA 2.5 Inch Internal SSD
Yah, that's good
However, I have a deal for ya, lemme look for it
uhm, it's a 2tb but
code: EMCEYSU47
Crucial MX500 2TB for $161.49
https://www.newegg.com/crucial-mx500-2tb/p/N82E16820156175?Item=N82E16820156175
banger deal on a high end SSD
same tier as the samsung 860 evo's
copied from demonmitt from #tech-deals
Well, to be fair, I won't be needing to much space, as its more of just to allow my laptop to run again, since I play my games through GeForce Now(practically every single game), especially since the laptop has a integrated graphics card,
As I'm also saving for an actual gaming laptop(would've gone for a desktop, but lack of space makes that hard)
Mhm, fair
Again, thank you, its very much appreciated for the help
:D
Yah, it's no problem
Better monitor>more monitors
Ehh i personally dont like precariously mounted monitors that could fall on my head and give me a concussion
assuming the worst
can someone help me out on airflow in my case please
White build
Np :)
not really a build but I'm getting a new used laptop later today
It's a ThinkPad E14, with an NVMe and 1x16GB of RAM. I'll be checking the keyboard for broken keys, the screen for scratches, the battery health with Lenovo Vantage, and that the RAM is actually 16GB with Task Manager.
Anything else I should check for? I plan to wipe the Windows install and upgrade it to Arch once I get home.
The seller will let me test it at a cafe before buying
Sounds all good
Do I upgrade my r5 3600x to r9 3600x
Ehhh do you mean r9 5900x?
Looks good
Yeah oops got the wrong number
For what use?
I mostly just play Mc. It would be big boy power flex.
Don't bother, wait for amd 6000 or 7000 or intel 12th/13th gen
Ok sounds good. My gpu is probably the weakest part of my pc anyway
What's your gpu?
Rx 550
Was gonna get a 3070 but gpu shortage 😆
Fair enough yeah
Thanx, Sharpie! 
My computer somewhat routinely goes black for a second or two. Is that just my graphics card, power supply, other?
lemme guess i does that when you close an app or when you switch apps?
no it does it while Im playing games or on my browser or really at any time
Sometimes it happens so long that it says no signal from my display port.
yeah it's kinda rough when im smoking an fps and then the string goes blank for 5 seconds.
@prime plover your cpu is 3600x and gpu rx550 correct?
temps for gpu and cpu are always ~50C
All drivers and windows updated?
yep
ddu and reinstall graphics drivers
what does ddu mean
Display driver uninstaller
Here you can Download Display Driver Uninstaller, this Display Driver Uninstaller is a driver removal utility that can help you completely uninstall AMD/NVIDIA graphics card drivers and packages from your system, with...
u know thats not the official site for ddu btw right?
That looks pretty drastic. Does it uninstall and then reinstall after?
Is there one? That's the first thing that came up for me
Just uninstall
Then you have to reinstall
That is the devs site
I see
I know this isn't really a build but i can probably get more help here than #electronics
So my dads work laptop has HDMI out
He uses a 4K monitor @30hz, but it's set to 1080p
When he switches the resolution to 4k, the screen goes black every time he changes windows
and when he opens the start menu the screen will go black
For now we will stick with 1080p but does anyone have any ideas why this is happening
strange are there any drivers for the monitor?
Yes we installed them
I did change the scaling size of his apps without restarting so maybe some windows had to rescale from 1080p to 4k
Such as?
couldn't uninstall cause of IT perms lock
So just the same thing but custom
Cause it was at 4k30
and did the black screen stuff
use whatever grapics software the pc has or CRU to set a custom 4k30 resolution
like amd or nvidia gpu software
What hdmi version does his laptop have, if it's 1.4 it might only support 4k at 24hz
No idea atm, i'll try to find out when i can tho
It's using a dvi dual link cable actually
Or specs of the pc will do too
Converted to hdmi on both ends
There ya go lol
Some weird dell office laptop 😆
oofers
That's the problem most likely
yeah get an hdmi to hdmi single cable
@little osprey
Yuh
what would yall say is the best fan config for air flow in a p500a?
Probs front 3 intake top 3 exhaust but slower rpm than front fans
and the one next to the io would be exhaust you think?
the one next to the io? on the top?
front 3 intake top 3 exhause but slower rpm
imo
its on the left side, looking at it from the front side
can you send a pic with a circle around it
sorry for bad quality but this is what i mean
wym? just the 6 fans?
yes
that's all you need
even if you have a 3990x with a 3090, that's all you really need
sure you can slap a 360 rad on top and such
but it's not gonna be that much improvement for just case airflow
with the 3 fans in pull config?
yo so i was wondering whats a good budget option for 16 gb of ram im thinking of upgrading because i only have 8 and im on a budget
3 fans just pull
what chip what board
i have a pre built so idk
hwinfo64
Yep if you wanted to fill more then 3 top exhaust but all needed is the 3 intake ye
oh uh pato what are your thoughts on me getting a 3060 till i get a job, and buy a 3080/3090 when i have said job next summer
Sure, i wouldn't bother with a 3090 unless you need the vram for like 3d animation or something
but like 4k ultra settings in MSFS 2020
3080 ti should perf the same
Why is it crap
They are already tested
5600g performs around Ryzen 5 3600 level
Good integrated graphics but that's the only good thing about
but 3080ti's costs as much as an airbus a330
It's just 8cu vega graphcs and 7cu
Vega is the graphics
And 3090s cost 2 airbus's
No
You should not
Ryzen 5 5600x and a dedicated gpu will whoop it's ass anyday
I’m gonna get a GT710 to open my pc and test everything and download windows
Then I’m gonna take it out
And buy a 1070
Or 1650
For around 250-200
@fossil cedar
Later on I’m gonna buy a 1TB HDD and use it for games in the meantime I’m gonna brows normally on my pc with a M.2 Ssd
I was told always keep the storage that Has Windows on it different to the Storage you have games on
why bother just buy the 1650 or 1070 now , buying twice = more money than buying more now
whoever told you that doesnt know what they talking about, feel completely free to store your games on your m.2, i store all my games on my ssd
and a 4090 costs 5 of the presidents 747's
Apparently it makes your ssd slower as I’m downloading windows on a 500gb Ssd
Nah it doesn't for a good ssd only some bargain bin ssda but still not really
A 10400 + 970 will whoop it cpu wise and very much gpu wise
Which is a better fan?
Corsair LL120 63 CFM 120 mm Fan
Arctic P14 PWM PST CO 140mm fan
I personally have the arctics but a friend wants to know
gonna have to go with the p14
140mm fans are generally better than 120mm when you can fit them
and arctics are great
also c
rsair
If your going purely off aesthetics though corsair would probably win cuz rainbow software
Lmfao
Sacrifice one of your cores to the icue rgb god
Zalman Mini Tower M3 Plus Black (Tempered Glass) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B084ZX3NKY/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_V9MNG0WWGQRZ1866CAM0
Would this be a good case?
Should be fine, it has mesh front so it's decent enough
P14s anyday
Wth lmao
Looks fine, I would rather get a p360a or p400a tho
I got the cougar MX330-G air
A nice case too
^
I’m gonna get the Acer Nitro 75HZ 1ms Fhd Monitor IPS for 60 with a Kind of bent stand but it’s not that bad is it a good price for 60 I might even get it for 50
Yeah that's decent, i would have tried getting a 144hz screen but yeah it's decent
At this point I only care if my pc turns on and I can use it
Fair enough
If your Ssd is Full and you have windows on it would it be slow
Well a small bit it wont benchmark as good but you won't notice the difference
Unless it as no dram tho
Sata you would feel it slightly
Without dram it could drop quite a bit, but not impactful enough to notice
ye lol
wth
windows saved 6 gigs of update backup for me
no wonder my ssd lost some space lmao
Macos takes 100gb on my ssd
I can vouch for my 240gb sata ssd that was rewritten loads, i didn't notice a difference in 6 years of use
Exactly what I said
Ye
i kinda have to think about my ssd whenever i install things into it cause it's only 120 gigs
Have to be counting micro seconds
tiny ssd
Stop hating on my mac
Its got an i20-10900KFC by zotac
No hate just big storage
Literally a god tier cpu
I have 11tb storage in ma pc
I do be chillin
You should make it qdr7 3.6ghz ram kek
Holy
Hmm later
Am doing mafs
I no like mafs
Why no like mafs
Mafs is fun tho
Magic 8 ball bot is mafs good?
:8ball: | Most likely, RAWR
Debatable x)
Is MATHS good
:8ball: | Most likely, RAWR
The bot agrees with me
:8ball: | Ask again later, Patokav
Tortol bot do u hate pato?
:8ball: | You may rely on it, RAWR
XD

Lmaoo
Tortol bot do you love alec?
:8ball: | My reply is no, RAWR
XD
Tortol bot do you love me?
:8ball: | It is certain, RAWR
Y'all msi made a case called the mpg quiteude
Wut?
It's a h510 competitor oven
Sounds about right
lmao
can we stop with the "cardboard pc" schtick in the build-pics channel? that joke has now been done to death
Unfortunately the way the internet works is right now someone is just discovering that and thinks it's the most hilarious thing ever so they have to share it
I would grab that 3060 in a heartbeat if it's still in stock
You gotta be quick tho
3090 is decent price too but they not worth it in general
How comes they have all these here
¯_(ツ)_/¯ people will be in work etc
Not as bad in the uk anymore
Afaik scan don't drop as often as currys anyway
Nice
Usually when things are in stock, it means no one bought em...
zotac
Stock situation isn't as bad in the uk as other regions, people say prices kinda dropped a bit and are probably huffing the copium of MSRP graphics cards again
Don’t matter what they are
^
They ar GPUS
I am actually happy now
You dont say!
as pato said stock situations arent as bad everywhere
Besides the price is inflated
3060 OC
Doesn't mean it will stay this way, people might realise MSRP isn't happening again til rtx 4000
For 560
I could always go to a pc shop nearbuy and buy any gpu
Yeah that's inflated as heck
Icky price, don't pay more for an oc card
The gigabyte one would be the buy for 450 
No but there is a 3060 for 450
entirety of this year XD
@jade scarab an oc card just means it has a very small factory overclock not worth the extra money
A gt710 
nah
3090s, 3080s, 3070s, and 3060s
also their ti models
Nice
never went outta stock here
Wack prices?
3X msrp
Wonder why they didn't go oos
Indood
3090ti 
LOL @fossil cedar That hmz guy got banned for scam link
Really? That was just the redirect to rick roll vid link I'm pretty sure
Ghosty had had enough
Lmao
hey i was helping my friend make his computer yesterday and when we booted it up it worked but it didnt read the ssd so we reseated the ssd but then now the monitor says it has no connections. any ideas?
Can you get into the bios? If there's no operating system on the ssd it won't do anything really if you don't manually enter bios
We entered it before the monitor problem
