It said that the h510m supported 3200mhz

obsidian wigeon
#

nah

#

that's with the right cpu only

fossil cedar
#

Nope

obsidian wigeon
#

like 10600k or 11600k

fossil cedar
#

Even with i9 it maxs to 2933

twin sedge
#

And it has tpm 2.0 correct?

obsidian wigeon
#

ofc

fossil cedar
#

Are you in the us rodlp?

H570 is basically b560

obsidian wigeon

rugged sparrow
#

No, but I know a couple of people

fossil cedar
#

And gives realistic pricing in budget

stoic island
#

using a sfx psu kinda weird

rugged sparrow
#

Maybe, I need a moniter within the budget of 1500

I'd go with a 10400 or 11400 and a better gpu if it was me, if you already have the gpu it isn't bad

#

As in that pairing

#

I didn't check out the rest

#

Basic fan is just as good as black fan

#

The only fan in the 224xt lineup that is different is the white

#

And its worse

#

By a couple percent on noise

#

But it's p close to margin of error

fossil cedar
desert gulch
#

Just a different color

#

ID-12025M12S vs ID-12025M12B

#

Both a sf-12025 fan

#

Same hydraulic bearing in both of em

fossil cedar
desert gulch
#

Yeah they're all the same except white

#

But that's in margin of error in testing so take it with a grain of salt

fossil cedar
#

Fair enough

steep berry
#

does anyone want to help me out lol, i wanna build a pc but i am on a bare bones budget

#

as long as the thing can turn on ill be happy

#

this is what i have but i want to go even lower with expenses

fossil cedar
#

And what is your budget?

steep berry
#

use? i just have a hobby for building them and messing around with parts and stuff. Budget is like 500 max

fossil cedar
steep berry
#

just basic office stuff

#

maybe watching netflix or something

#

mostly i just want to purchase these parts to have something to build and modify

I need some help!
I’m looking for about a 60% ish keyboard, for $100 or less. I’ll be using it for gaming specifically. I want something less bulky than my current. What do you guys recommend?

wet jay
stoic island
#

keep in mind 60% doesn't have dedicated function keys like f1 f2 f3 f4 etc

#

You'll have layers to do that on 60%/65% boards

#

If you do want dedicated function keys but don't want numpad, there's the Womier K87 that's TKL as another option

#

all hotswap so you can swap in switches later

wet jay
#

@stoic island awesome! Thank you so much for your help

building a new pc

lucid minnow
#

Hey is the gigabyte x570 auros master a good mobo?

fossil cedar
#

for a lot cheaper

lucid minnow
#

its gonna have a ryzen 7 5800X and a radeon rx 6800xt attached to it

#

does that change anything?

fossil cedar
lucid minnow
#

alright thank you

fossil cedar
#

np

stoic island
#

You can go much cheaper than that for a build like that with no other requirements

sharp tangle
#

b550 aorus pro is on sale for like 180 on Amazon, it was 162 a few days ago tho

stoic island
#

Like all the way as cheap as b550m pro vdh wifi will do okay, b550 gaming edge wifi as a in-between point

lucid minnow

hello i'm kinda not new in building pc ( i'm able to build one) but i have now idea what parts should I buy for a budget pc (600$) it's not for hard gaming but it should be able to run games without probleme

#

Ducky keyboards are meh overpriced

cunning bobcat
#

good for the price i think (i got mine for around 110€

fossil cedar
#

Ohh wait you're in Europe

#

What country?

#

No point converting prices as stuff isn't available in some countries and prices of products not same etc

cunning bobcat
#

France but shipping isn't a problem don't worry XD

#

so in $ it's ok

fossil cedar
#

So 600€?

cunning bobcat
#

yep

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

600$-700$ XD

fossil cedar
#

Just say euro my guy

#

Saying your budget in country your not in just doesn't make sense lol

cunning bobcat
#

what is the best CPU with ab integrated grahics card......bcs ...you know....

fossil cedar
#

thats why i put 960/970 etc

analog hearth
#

I could be wrong but I think Intel Xe graphics are actually superior over Ryzen integrated graphics but somebody please correct me on that if it's needed

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

yessss but way to much i think

worn wave
#

There are still quite a few older GPUs that are cheap on ebay

cunning bobcat
#

i saw the "SAPPHIRE NITRO Radeon RX 470 4gb" but idk if it's good (i'm not gonna play a lot of big demanding game like call of...)

analog hearth
#

don't get a 4 GB 470

#

iirc they make an 8 GB variant. get that instead

#

but you're probably actually better with a 570 or 580 8 GB. there's not much of a performance difference, but it's at least more reliable iirc

fossil cedar
fossil cedar
analog hearth
#

ah

cunning bobcat
#

$107.50 (converted in $)

#

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

ok

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

otherwise i have this

#

GTX1050Ti

fossil cedar
#

470 over 1050 ti

#

look for 970's tho

cunning bobcat
#

ok thks

#

so it's the gtx 970??

fossil cedar
#

yeah

cunning bobcat
#

ok thks

#

very much

fossil cedar

#

It's for april.....so i hope the prices will go down....

#

For the GPU

#

Does anyone know how to fix my problem my monitor is 144z and it’s only showing up as 120hz and with my other monitor it does the say it’s 165 but only shows up as 144hz

#

@fossil cedar

plain grove
#

What’s the difference

fossil cedar
#

Different ports

plain grove
#

Hdmi

fossil cedar
#

Might need to use hdmi to get the 144hz

plain grove
#

I’m using dvi to hdmi

fossil cedar
#

Or you need display port to get the refresh rate quoted

plain grove
#

Alright

trail wren
#

does anyone recommend a amd cpu on a budget?

fossil cedar
#

Why would you want amd cpu anyway?

trail wren
#

i like amd

#

well rn i am using a intel cpu

#

but its from 2013

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

10100

#

11400

#

11100

fossil cedar
# trail wren i like amd

And they're both mulit billion dollar companies just get the best one for your budget, what's your budget?

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

oh lmaoo

#

intel naming scheme is interesting

#

and not intuitive

#

same with amd tho

#

but yeah what budget

fossil cedar
potent portal
#

12400 is shaping up to be the next budget pick

#

If you guys saw the accidental release of the review

#

Slap that onto a B660 board once they come out and we've got a solid budget system

fossil cedar
#

Yeah, for the moment though, 10100 b560 for really budget, 10400/11400 b560 for mid/budget

earnest olive
#

ultimate budget

#

but yeah

#

I'm excited for 12400

#

and 12100

#

wish 12100 had some e-cores too but oh well

jaunty nacelle
#

5700 for $350, 6600xt for $550, or 3060 for $600

obsidian wigeon
#

5700 is the best bang for the buck out there

potent portal
#

It's also a good mining card

obsidian wigeon
#

rocky grove
#

Do you guys know if I get the new intel 12th gen chips is there a mobo that can be backwards compatible so that I can use my current GPU (980) and build a new pc for now until the GPU prices come back to normal?

obsidian wigeon
#

It should work with that gpu

#

pcie version doesn't matter

potent portal
#

GPUs you don't need to worry about, pci spec is backwards compatible

obsidian wigeon
#

I'd recc getting just 12600K myself

#

It's good for basically anything

#

5800X perf is nice

potent portal
#

With a ddr4 board at that, no need for ddr5 with that chip

obsidian wigeon
#

Just has to be good speed and latency

#

Like 3200c14 or 3600c16

trail sundial
#

at least not worth the price jump?

potent portal
#

The 12700k barely benefits from ddr5, and even the 12900k isn't much difference

#

It's not worth paying $300-600 on a memory kit that's practically jedec speed (about the same speed as decent ddr4)

trail sundial
#

makes sense, DDR5 isn't very sensible at the moment, at least not until it gets faster and cheaper

little osprey
#

ddr3 is king

#

ddr3 gang

potent portal
#

Sure but there's not a lot of ddr3 platforms that support nvme, and I like muh speed

little osprey
#

chinese x79 boards

potent portal
#

The only reason I held onto my FX 8300 so long is the motherboard allowed nvme boot with an expansion card

little osprey
#

what'd you do with the system after you upgraded

trail sundial
little osprey
trail sundial
#

yeah, it's still running, a little on the outdated side though

potent portal
#

I still have it but I'm not sure if it'll run. I had to force the board out of the old case...

little osprey
#

I just fixed a i7 920 system for my school recently

limber oyster
#

When you need 6 ddr3s to run like 2 ddr4s

trail sundial
#

yeah, that's only 12 gigs in that picture

little osprey
#

12 gigs is still a decent amount

potent portal
#

Just wait, 32gb sticks are about to be the small size ddr5 sticks

limber oyster
#

Oh I saw

trail sundial
#

128GB stick, that's gonna be entertaining

little osprey
#

and expensive

#

very, very expensive

trail sundial
#

I'd be amazed if it wasn't

#

that's a lot of ram

potent portal
#

They already have them in servers

little osprey
#

I have hard drives that will have less storage space than a freaking stick of volatile memory

potent portal
#

1tb ram moment

little osprey
#

💀

potent portal
#

Only thing to do with all that space is run a ram cache

little osprey
#

it really is crazy how fast computer technology advances

#

i will never not love X79 though 😔

potent portal
#

I've been tempted to swap my oem 2011 socket board...

little osprey
#

what for

#

2011-1 or 3?

potent portal
#

Overclock my xeons of course

little osprey
#

please not x99

potent portal
#

2011 classic

little osprey
#

oh

#

ive learned my lesson trying to overclock x99

#

4 dimms = tri-channel

potent portal
#

I have a xeon 2680v1, v3 is when they switched to x99

little osprey
#

yea ik

#

so are you gonna do BCLK ocing?

potent portal
#

Makes one hell of a plex server with mining in the background lol. No hardware acceleration, all cpu transcoding.

little osprey
#

oo nice

potent portal
#

Haven't decided. I kinda want to swap the board but... I hate replacing things that still work

little osprey
#

I do have a dual socket lga2011-1 server that I havent been using for anything recently

#

I was gonna host my own public mc server but I dont have time to keep developing it

#

i almost got it ready to open too 😔

potent portal
#

I tried and failed to run an internet server. My isp is wack.

potent portal
# frank stirrup No static ip?

Not even an ipv4. I get an ipv6 routed through a 6 to 4 tunnel. The result is I can't be pinged by either ipv6 or ipv4.

frank stirrup
#

Ouch

potent portal
#

Yeah... So no server on my net unless I pay for a vpn with static address

#

Plex threw a fit too. It seems to detect it as double nat. Which isn't wholly inaccurate.

frank stirrup
#

Im actually thinking of getting a raspberry pi and hooking it to 2 hard drives in raid 1

#

And running a private files server

#

Since static ip

potent portal
#

Budget NAS

frank stirrup
#

Yeah

#

What do you think?

#

Should I?

potent portal
#

No real reason not to. Why not offload some resources from your main systems?

#

You could run a pihole too

frank stirrup
#

Pihole and nas off the same raspberry pi is doable?

#

Also i have 350mbps symmetrical so should be good enough

potent portal
#

As long as you're not maxing out the processor too often, I don't see why not.

#

Might need a heatsink for that thing lol

frank stirrup
#

Ill get one of those cases that has a fan and stuff for it

potent portal
#

Ehh, if you want. Not totally necessary, but could be good for having drives attached.

frank stirrup
#

Hmm time to start saving up for all that then ig

#

Cant wait to get out of college and get a job in 3 years

limber oyster
#

I'm doing college and work

#

Night Shift too...

#

But yeah, you're idea isn't bad.....idk why I didn't think of that...I like to run my own servers for games....

#

Maybe because I have no idea how to do a raspberry pi system

potent portal
#

It's pretty easy, especially if you have any coding experience. There's guides for everything.

limber oyster
#

Hmm coding....so you need to code your own os or something?

frank stirrup
limber oyster
#

10pm to 6am night shift

#

Online college

frank stirrup
#

I have offline

limber oyster
#

Oof

potent portal
limber oyster
#

Oh....

#

Sounds.... complicated

#

Is it basically like Arduino?

potent portal
#

In essence yes, but also no

#

It's more like a mini, low power computer

#

OS install is easy, you just copy the files to a SD card

#

You can always look up a guide on how to make a raspberry pi nas

limber oyster
#

Ahh

#

My brother got some Arduino things....I was clueless

potent portal
#

Arduino can be fun though. We had to make a project using it for a final. I made a solar powered jack o lantern that lights up and plays sounds automatically when it gets dark.

fossil cedar
#

Arduino is fun

#

Very kewl

Especially with daughter boards

#

the crisis is going down in 2022

(mid 2022 according to the builders)

fossil cedar
cunning bobcat
#

yep so to late XD

stoic island
#

Late 2023/2024 according to me :D

#

Supply will probably clear up before then, but that's a solid time to put bottom line at

frank stirrup
#

12 more monfs minimum

stoic island
#

New fabs will definitely help when they come online, which would be late 2023/2024

fossil cedar
#

But again market will change and that list probs wont be valid

earnest olive
#

they really advertised that as a 12 core apu

stoic island

it's an a12-9800 ANPepega

violet ridge
#

Hello, will this work on a Gigabyte Aorus Pro Z690

#

Also, is there no point to running 3600 and should I just get 3200

fossil cedar
#

The drr4 version yes but I'd avoid corsair ram

#

Get 3600 cl16 at least

violet ridge
#

will the ram be running at full capacity?

stoic island
#

Assuming you get the Z690 Aorus Pro DDR4 board, I'd grab a 3600c16 ballistix kit

violet ridge
#

Ok, the reason I ask is I have the DDR5 mobo but it has a specs for the DDR4 mobo so I wasn't sure.

stoic island
#

Uh

#

It's two different motherboards

#

There's one board with slots that fit ddr5, the other has slots that fit ddr4

violet ridge
#

DDR5 memory is a bit over priced atm AND hard to get

#

crud...

stoic island
#

Sadly

violet ridge
#

same amount of pins thought i could run it my mistake

stoic island
#

@violet ridge

earnest olive
#

even if it fit it wouldn't work

#

ddr5 has the power delivery on the ram

#

ddr4 has it on the board

violet ridge
#

I'm an idiot lol

earnest olive
#

nah

#

we were all new once

stoic island
#

I know regulation module on ram but does it have actual power delivery on ram? @earnest olive

earnest olive
#

yeah that's what I meant, delivering the correct power/voltage to the ICs

violet ridge
#

I guess i'm gonna have to wait for stocks to resupply

earnest olive
#

the actual delivering of power to the module is going to be through the pins

stoic island
#

I.e. is motherboard still doing the 12v -> 1.5v for the ram sticks or are the sticks doing it themselves?

violet ridge
#

Got it

fossil cedar
#

Or buy the ddr4 board(which is like 70$ less if you're only getting loke 12600k/12700k

earnest olive
stoic island
#

Oh fun

earnest olive
#

and then that circuit at the top steps it down

stoic island
#

Moving towards 12vo

earnest olive
#

I know that some modules are locked to like 1.1v in their regulator circuit so you can barely oc them

#

that's annoying

stoic island
earnest olive
#

I'm not 100% sure so don't take my word for it

#

I care very little about ddr5 right now

stoic island
#

I'm even less sure

earnest olive
stoic island
#

Who even does that

earnest olive
#

some people have been jerry rigging their own cooler adapters

stoic island
#

NOCTUA gang

violet ridge
#

yea that's me too lol

#

preordered my cooler just waiting on it

earnest olive
#

nh-d15 isn't compatible with most of the asus boards funnily enough

stoic island
#

Yes that was making me mad a while back

violet ridge
#

cooler that fits a LGA1700 that is...

stoic island
#

Why the hell is vrm clearance becoming an issue

#

Why is Asus making it into an issue

#

:(

earnest olive
#

intel really pooped the bed here not working with major cooler manufacturers to make sure the cooling adapter situation was sorted by launch day

#

embarrassing that people can't use $1200 worth of flagship hardware for lack of a $5 cooler adapter

stoic island
#

Indeed kind of sad, but Asus....

earnest olive
#

I hear cooler master and arctic still don't know when their adapters will be ready

cunning bobcat
#

ok after a while i think i've got something....but i cannot resolve the compatibility probleme

fossil cedar

Bruh i gave you list

#

Stop using pcpp America it's useless to you

cunning bobcat
#

earnest olive
#

ah, build chat.. when you give someone a part list and then they make it worse

violet ridge
#

I have an AORUS PRO DDR5 Z690. Gigabyte's website states it supports DDR5 5200 (OC) / 4800...So which RAM type do I need?

earnest olive
#

you'll be able to slap any ddr5 in it

#

they only list what they've explicitly verified

cunning bobcat
#

ok so i'm looking for a case...but not overpriced with (at least 3 fans rgb if possible)

earnest olive
#

let me tell you a little known secret

#

you can add rgb fans to any case

cunning bobcat
#

yep

#

i know

#

ok so i choose a Xigmatek Nemesis M MicroATX Mini Tower Case

#

but i need 3 rgb fans

violet ridge
#

Any opinions on Corsair Dominator or GSKILL Trident DDR5 ram?

cunning bobcat
#

i choose the MetallicGear SKIRON

sharp tangle
#

is it a bad idea to mount my 360mm aio (front mount) before the mobo? im not putting the mobo in today im just antsy and bored

desert gulch
#

I mean as long as you don't smear the preapplied paste if you have it you'll prolly be fine

#

But would probably be easier just to wait until you have Mobo so you don't have to deal with an aio getting in the way

fossil cedar

refrence this list

A buddy of mine convinced me to go Intel

He's having the same issues with his Ryzen board as mine even though he has a different board

obsidian wigeon
#

What kinda issues?

#

USB? If so a bios update will help

limber oyster
#

It won't boot up unless everything in bios is default

obsidian wigeon
#

hm

limber oyster
#

It's just continuously goes thru post

#

Tried different CPU, GPU, ram, hard drive, replaced cmos battery, tried different psu

#

Literally everything BUT motherboard

#

And I already updated bios when it booted up quickly and on the first try when everything was at default

#

And nothing is overheating

#

My GPU reaches 54°C when gaming and CPU doesn't go past 65°C

obsidian wigeon
#

That is indeed a faulty board

#

Runs at the default clock

#

Ram is xmp at 3200, runs at 2133mhz

earnest olive
#

does it fail to post even if you just load defaults and then change one small thing like power led mode

limber oyster
fossil cedar
#

That sounds very weird

limber oyster
#

I set ram to xmp

#

I changed fan speeds

#

I changed CPU clock

#

I changed tmp 2.0 on

#

I changed boot drive to an external trying to download w11

stoic island
#

at once or one at a time

limber oyster
#

One at a time

fossil cedar
#

Ahh okay

#

I was like that's definitely more than 1 thing xD

#

I'd probably try update bios but is this new mobo?

stoic island
#

xmp is prone to issues, cpu clocks can lead to not booting, tpm 2.0 is wacky, changing boot drive can lead to weird things

limber oyster
#

Not new mobo

fossil cedar
#

Although fan speeds should boot lol

stoic island
#

yea

limber oyster
#

But I did update bios and nothing changed

fossil cedar
#

Hmmm

#

Always been like this?

limber oyster
#

Since I got the board

fossil cedar
#

Why didn't you return it earlier lol

#

Anyway rma sounds like only option

limber oyster
#

Because I could still use it even as default

stoic island
#

meh, try rma first

limber oyster
#

I'll just get alder lake and give this to my brother

#

He's been wanting an actual cpu and not a quad core

fossil cedar
#

Well rma before you give to bro

limber oyster
#

Phhh nah

fossil cedar
#

What mobo and cpu you got?

limber oyster
#

He doesn't deserve that

fossil cedar
stoic island
#

just beware of ddr5 being a real pain in the rear to get

limber oyster
#

Asus x570 tuff wifi

obsidian wigeon
#

Before gettin adl

limber oyster
obsidian wigeon
#

Find some ram first

#

Unless you go ddr4

fossil cedar
#

Rma it, 2133 on Ryzen is gonna be TRASH

limber oyster
#

Keeping my Corsair Vengeance RGB pro

stoic island
#

x570 plus wifi?

limber oyster
#

Yes

covert vapor
#

Be sure to take photos of everything before shipping though for a rma

stoic island
#

just going to mention no flashback

fossil cedar
#

It's sad

#

Especially since it's on the b550 version lol

#

@limber oyster what cpu you got ?

covert vapor
#

They put flashback on the pro I think

limber oyster
#

7 3700x

stoic island
#

pro does, plus doesn't

covert vapor
#

Because weggDumb

fossil cedar
# limber oyster 7 3700x

No issues with bios then from rma, just rma, no reason not to lol you're missing so much perf, especially if you get new cpu mobo first

limber oyster
#

Brother won't even notice a difference

#

Well ..he will from his old one

fossil cedar
#

Also honestly massive perf increase from 2133 to 3200mhz especially on Ryzen

limber oyster
#

He has a i3-8th gen and 2133mhz ram

#

That's the speed at which I bought them

#

The max his board can handle as well

fossil cedar
#

Ehhhhh

#

Honestly ryzen 3000 on 2133 probably isn't a massive leap over that

limber oyster
#

It's a 8 core vs a quad, technically dual core just hyper threaded

#

I'd say that a huge difference

fossil cedar
#

I3 8100 is 2 cores oh right nvm

#

But still

limber oyster
#

"Not a massive leap"

#

Tbh it's probably that boosted speed that helped

frank stirrup
#

That test is probably with better ram than you have

#

Not familiar with how passmark tests

static ravine
#

Probably with 3200-3600 mhz ram

limber oyster
#

I personally am running 2x8 gb 3200 mhz cl16 ram

frank stirrup
#

But ryzen needs good ram to run

#

Didnt u say u were runing 2133

limber oyster
#

But rn both me and my brother are running at 2x8gb 2133mhz

#

Me because of bios issues

#

Him because of his motherboard

frank stirrup
#

Yeah so ur running 2133ram

#

Not 3200c16 ram

#

So u can probably disregard those results

static ravine
#

It's not 3200 if you're not running XMP or DOCP.

limber oyster
#

Well since we're both at same speeds and capacity I can use those results as a REFERENCE

#

I might not be having that EXACT score, it's still a reference

static ravine
#

With 2133 it'll be way off.

limber oyster
#

But so would his

static ravine
#

To the point where that's barely a reference.

limber oyster
#

I doubt they used 2133mhz with the i3 as well

static ravine
limber oyster
#

Well then the comparison is skewed anyways

#

You can't compare CPUs if one has faster better ram then the other

#

That's like comparing a gen 4 nvme and a gen one sata and asking which is faster to boot up windows 10

frank stirrup
#

See the way amd cpus work is they use system ram to communicate between cores

#

So if you have slow ram, that gets slowed down

#

And the cpu has to wait around

#

Which makes the system much much slower

#

Its not a linear decrease or increase

#

Thats not an exact explanation but the very very basic version

#

Intel no do that

#

All cores together and direct link between cores

#

So fast ram not as important for intel as to amd

#

Like at all

#

Because ryzen chiplet based architecture

limber oyster
#

Though might get trident neos

#

With the neo

static ravine
#

4000 mhz on an i5.

#

??!?!

#

Talk about wasting money on useless things.

limber oyster
#

My bad

#

I also didn't see those were each 32gb kits

#

I don't need 64gb ram

obsidian wigeon
#

might as well do ddr5

limber oyster
#

Check the edited link

#

I deleted the old link and posted new

#

Better?

static ravine
#

If you're going 12th gen I recommend holding out for more ddr5 options to hit the market.

obsidian wigeon
#

That looks fine

#

But I rather do ballistix

#

Cause 3600c16

static ravine
#

Yeah.

obsidian wigeon
#

Ballistix does have rgb version too

limber oyster
#

They had cl16, but it was like $40-50 more per kit

static ravine
obsidian wigeon
#

If you prioritize looks well it's not bad

limber oyster
#

And I want to do either Amazon or best buy

#

So having prices is important

#

With Amazon I use the Amazon delivery hub box and with best buy i can do curbside pickup

#

I work night and sleep most of the day. I don't want to miss delivery or have it sit outside all day so I do the remote pick up on my way to work or home

#

Though I might do a microcenter shopping trip after work one of these days since I have Friday/Saturday off and I get off work Friday morning

#

Sleep for an hour or two, drive to Microcenter, sleep for another hour or two, drive home, sleep for the whole weekend

fossil cedar
limber oyster
#

Does 2 points really make THAT big a difference?

jagged ember
#

if money is an issue, I'd get crucial ballistix ram lol

#

rgb is a pain to set up and not always consistent

limber oyster
#

Id like rbg tho

jagged ember
fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

apparently

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

yep

limber oyster
#

Cl18 to cl16 used "points" as a general term

jagged ember
#

what

#

those are timings

fossil cedar
#

Cl18 to cl16 is a huge jump

jagged ember
#

who calls em points?

#

ik xqc calls ram juicers

fossil cedar
#

3600cl18 is equivalent, sometimes worse than 3200cl16

jagged ember
#

yep

fossil cedar
#

So a good bit of difference

#

@limber oyster do you want/need new ssd ? And what cooler you got atm?

limber oyster
limber oyster
#

And I have a 360mm aio

#

you've picked an mp33 in the list

#

ah yeah

#

maybe sn550 is cheaper?

fossil cedar

I'd do this

jagged ember
#

whoa

#

that cost dropped a lot

#

nice

limber oyster
#

Now to add a second ram kit and it's perfect

jagged ember
#

oh right

#

why did you want 32gb again?

limber oyster
#

Tbh, mostly for looks

#

But I'm also going to be streaming as well as gaming

jagged ember
#

if you really want to spend it, sure

#

but 16gb is enough for that use case

limber oyster
#

I just hate having that gap in-between each ram

jagged ember
#

will you put your pc on your desk?

limber oyster
#

I have a small desk I have it on

jagged ember
#

and constantly have it in your direct field of view?

limber oyster
#

Yeah

jagged ember
#

hm

#

well, I still wouldn't personally but it's your choice

#

mostly because I really don't care what my pc looks like on the inside haha

#

as long as it's decently cable managed I'm happy

#

Like say a 3700x

Been wanting to do a itx build for a while. Or a mATX one.

I would at least wait a bit and see how ddr5 stock situation goes

I feel like it’s gonna go the way of gpu stock prices

#

I was planning on staying ddr4

potent portal

Unless you're playing competitive fps games at 720/1080p chances are you're fine with a 3700X for a while.

#

That works then. Don't pay a whole lot more than the 5600g in that case, it's not that much better.

magic thunder
potent portal
#

That depends on prices

i thought the gpu was more powerful in the 5700g?

A little, not much

magic thunder
#

ah

#

this is gonna be first p build

potent portal
#

Example

magic thunder
fossil cedar
#

Imo 5600g is better deal

#

5700g maybe if it was like same price as 5600x would make sense

quaint swan
#

Yo I just got a 3070 so should I benchmark it and is you sag a real issue?

magic thunder
#

is that a god idea

fossil cedar
#

If you notice a lot of sag you can get things to help with sag for like 10$

fossil cedar
potent portal
magic thunder
#

so

#

the 5600g is a better option

#

than the 1030

#

and 5600x

potent portal
#

In my opinion, yes for most people

magic thunder
#

ahhhh ok

#

tysm for ur help

#

can i send a pcp list real quick

fossil cedar
#

Ofc

magic thunder
#

might switch outthe case for this tho

fossil cedar
#

Ntb, I'd change the motherboard, case, and power supply, also grab a 3rd party cooler

What case where you thinking?

#

u can make a new pcp list or edit the existing

what cooler

@magic thunder you looking to put a 3060 ti/3070 in there later on correct?

Okie

Do you mind rebates?

no

fossil cedar
#

Okay cool

It's fine but If you don't really mind what it looks like I'd go with b550 pro vdh wifi

My dad's old PC I'm pretty sure the gpu is completely dead. The screen flickered after being in windows for about 30 seconds and went black. Restarted and turned back on, same thing and it just wouldn't display an image anymore even after restarting. Is it probably dead?

Possibly, but first check with different ports and cables. If possible try it in another computer.
Which gpu exactly? Some of them you can bake in the oven to get a couple more months out of it.
