[earnest olive]

hmm my budget 0.26 azerbaijani manat it is enough?

[gritty rover]

Shout out to my dude over there at geek squad,

This thing has stopped being a little brat

BUT I WAS ANGRY BECAUSE THE DUDE AT GEEK SQUAD UNPLUGGED THE CPU

And for an hour I was wondering “why is the display port not working”

Oh yea I know my cable management is bad but I’m just now starting my set up and I don’t know how to work it, if you guys have any advice on how I should put the cords that’d be nice

Should I use zip ties?

It’s like a jungle

[fossil cedar]

yes just beg the manufacteres for the parts and say you make video about

[earnest olive]

thanks I did it and they send me free 12900KS

[gritty rover]

Stonkkkssss

[fossil cedar]

12900ks bad only 16 core

[gritty rover]

😭

[fossil cedar]

you need 64 for fortnite

[earnest olive]

I will review feeding it to goat

[frank stirrup]

ohhh okok i forgot 1 secon

[gritty rover]

What bout Roblox tho? 😰

[earnest olive]

goat like it. want more. Intel plz send. the goat hungers.

[fossil cedar]

roblox need at least 128 cpu cores

[gritty rover]

😥🥶😱😱😱😱😱 yooo

[rotund zealot]

And 7 3090 ties

[gritty rover]

That’s like… mega stonks

How much do you need to make a minecraft server

Not even nasa’s is good enough

[frank stirrup]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Tj8z78
@earnest olive ask goat about this

this enough rgb to light up entire cd

[fossil cedar]

not enough rgb

motherboard not good enough

[gritty rover]

That’s enough light to make me seizure

[rotund zealot]

You need the ql120s man

[gritty rover]

Get a case with rgb

And rgb harddrives

[rotund zealot]

5000T

[gritty rover]

Rgb cpu

[rotund zealot]

No that psu is already the bomb😎 😎

[gritty rover]

I rate it a 5/10 rgb

[gritty rover]

Bomb as in it’ll explode?

[frank stirrup]

bro have u seen the prismatics

[rotund zealot]

No but

Have you seen qls

[frank stirrup]

I added 16 rgb flood lights

and more firework psu

and many monitor for 8k gaming

[rotund zealot]

Sir you forgot the rgb mousepad

[fossil cedar]

not enough monitors

[frank stirrup]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/L2Qhtn
OK @earnest olive final list

i put video game for ur goats as well

[fossil cedar]

putting goat sym in is cheating reeeeeeeeeee

[frank stirrup]

ur just salty that u didnt think of it

[earnest olive]

thank you. goat is very happy

[fossil cedar]

[earnest olive]

bro I'm at a fancy italian winery and I don't drink

🗿

[frank stirrup]

have a few sips lad

italian wine is

[earnest olive]

I tried it and spit it out

tastes absolutely vile

[frank stirrup]

red or white?

because red wine is gross

[earnest olive]

white

makes me think of isopropyl alcohol lol

[frank stirrup]

bro what trash wine u drink

[earnest olive]

I don't drink

[frank stirrup]

nah like what trash wine was that

[earnest olive]

idk everyone else says it's good LOL

that was my first taste of any alcoholic drink ever

I don't want a second taste

they gave us some good pasta to go with it though so I'm just eating that lol

[frank stirrup]

why did u never have alcohol before dis btw

[earnest olive]

dm

[fossil cedar]

wine is vile tbf

[frank stirrup]

shut

fruity white wines are goated

[fossil cedar]

ewww next thing you gonna say you like pee water beer

[frank stirrup]

I love beer

whats wrong with beer

not much alcohol

[fossil cedar]

🤮

[frank stirrup]

and very tasty

[rotund zealot]

All alcohol is gross

[fossil cedar]

nah cocktails and cider are nice

[rotund zealot]

I've never had it lol

[jagged ember]

beer is fine

[frank stirrup]

the c in cider stands for crap

[frank stirrup]

how do u know its gross then lol

[fossil cedar]

nou

[frank stirrup]

the c in rawr stands for crap?

oh no

im devastated

how am i gonna recover

[fossil cedar]

the C in stick

[rotund zealot]

Um I've tasted some alcohol

And liked non of it

[jagged ember]

but you haven't had cocktails or ciders

[still roost]

Subject989#0001 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[ripe halo]

Why

[fossil cedar]

because you swore

[ripe halo]

Talking about alcohol consumption and why its bad but can't curse

[jagged ember]

yeah

[fossil cedar]

no its cuz you said the f word

[ripe halo]

I understand that

Don't care

[frank stirrup]

overdoing it is bad

just like overdoing anything is bad

in moderation its alright

just like most things

[mossy venture]

for example

feeding a cpu 2volts but only once every few days is fine

(this is a joke, please dont do this)

[frank stirrup]

omw to feed ur cpu

[mossy venture]

omw to eat ur cpu

[frank stirrup]

ok come

degraded 3600x

[mossy venture]

ill trade you my 3600

thats a terrible bin

[fossil cedar]

wow we are all twinsies

[mossy venture]

indeed

[fossil cedar]

bad 3600's

[mossy venture]

pato we have twin 3600 3060 ti builds atm

[fossil cedar]

[mossy venture]

my 3600 loses to a 7700k in single core

[frank stirrup]

pato did u hear racca was a genshin simp for a while

[fossil cedar]

have you ram oc'd yet?

[mossy venture]

ive never touched genshin

[fossil cedar]

she

[mossy venture]

nah but its in cinebench, from what people have told me it doesnt care about ram speed much

[frank stirrup]

he had changed nickname to guacca

[frank stirrup]

tru

cinebench more like cinedumdum

[mossy venture]

my 3600 also loses to a 9600k in multi core

not sure if thats normal

by a decent bit too

[frank stirrup]

use ctr by 1usmus

what could go wrong

/s

[mossy venture]

?

whats ctr

[frank stirrup]

dms

so i can swear

[mossy venture]

k

rawr

im now a you simp

[fossil cedar]

uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

are you sure

[mossy venture]

ye

by like 65 pts iirc

[fossil cedar]

9600 has no ht 💀

[mossy venture]

i could be remembering wrong

[fossil cedar]

must be

[mossy venture]

i got 1231 single core

i dont rmember the mc

smthn in the low 9000s

[fossil cedar]

But on ryzrn eveything do cuz fclk

[frank stirrup]

arent we all rawr simps here tho

i simp rawr

he seems cool

[mossy venture]

fair

[frank stirrup]

i know pato simps rawr too

especially on tuesdays

[mossy venture]

i think multi core was in the 9200s

[frank stirrup]

rawr is just a very nice and hot guy

many simps

anyway

[fossil cedar]

hmm

seems legit

[little osprey]

nah bro

[brittle copper]

So uh

What’s happening guys

[iron dragon]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/DvVHzf

anything i should changes

[little osprey]

nice aio

[grim wraith]

Why is it so difficult to sell a PC right now? lol

You’d think more people would want one at a decent price

[ornate condor]

Heres my budget build
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/G2xNPX

[mossy venture]

cheap gpu

also i wouldnt buy that aio

or the ssd

the p2 one anyways

[ornate condor]

Yeah I'm not happy with it tho I probably gonna replace it

[mossy venture]

liquid freezer ii 280 is a good choice

280 or 360 if it fits in your case

[ornate condor]

P2 one I had before . I using it as storage. Main boot is M470

[mossy venture]

i also wouldnt have gone with that mobo for a 12600k

i woulda spent 20 more for an msi b660-a or asus b660 prime

[ornate condor]

I'm not huge fan of Overclocking so I thought any mobo should be ok lol

[mossy venture]

its not terrible

but the features gained from 20 more is worth it

[ornate condor]

Yeah thinking about Galahad too

[mossy venture]

eh

if you care for rgb

[ornate condor]

Not on that build lol

I have highend build at gameplace that I care about aesthetic but this one is my gaming build so not caring much about aesthetic

[potent portal]

DS3H is fine for 12600k or less at stock. 12700k is where it gets iffy.

[south cliff]

I cant find any lga 1700 adapters for my kraken x73

[potent portal]

https://support.nzxt.com/hc/en-us/articles/4407896253339-How-to-get-the-LGA-1700-Bracket

[junior crescent]

Is the 12600 worth it performance wise over a 12400f

12400f is 270 AUD and 12600 is 340 AUD

[mossy venture]

no

not unless its a 12600k

or kf

[junior crescent]

So i should stick with the 12400f

[mossy venture]

yes

[desert gulch]

12600 non k is a useless cpu

There's literally no point ever to get it unless it's somehow cheaper than a 12400(f)

[junior crescent]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/FJ2Ygb Would this be good for 1440p Ultra gaming

[fossil cedar]

id do this https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Mvjgtn

[fossil cedar]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/fDZvfv id do this

[latent sandal]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Ljzj2m is this gud?

[fossil cedar]

i would change a few things... also half the stuff isnt in stock?

do you already have that stuff

[latent sandal]

its in stock in a computer store near my place

[fossil cedar]

you not in the US?

[latent sandal]

yea

[fossil cedar]

what country then?

no point using us pc part picker

[latent sandal]

im from singapore

[fossil cedar]

ahhh

i cant really help you too much then because idk what your alternatives are

you should manually put in the prices even in local currency .... what are your other options for power supply.... cooler.... ram depending on price... gpus and SSD's - I would look for something like team mp33 1tb instead of a 500gb 970 evo plus

[latent sandal]

oh ok

[fossil cedar]

for cooler something like a gammax 400 or something is plenty

no need for an aio

also personally would go with a diff case but guessing you want that because its small

[potent portal]

False, the UHD 770 iGPU is better than the 12400 (UHD 730) which makes it better in the short term and long term.
Intel dGPUs will be able to synergize with the iGPU for increased performance.

The 12600f on the other hand... now that would be useless. If it existed.

[fossil cedar]

but the 12500 has uhd 770 as well doesnt it?

yep it does

[potent portal]

Sure but a $20 difference. Personally I'd take a 12600 over a bad bin 12600 aka 12500

[fossil cedar]

by that logic - 30$ more and get the 4 extra p cores tho

[potent portal]

True

[desert gulch]

If you really needed the igp you may as well save a ton of money and get a 5600g

Yeah it has worse CPU perf but whatever

Igp users won't really care for that

Plus who be buying a Intel dgpu?

[potent portal]

Define "a ton of money" because I see a $10 difference to the 12500

[fossil cedar]

yeah price isnt really a factor

i guess you could save a bit on the mobo

[potent portal]

And it's more of a "use it until I get a dGPU" thing, then if you do get the Intel dGPU you can boost it. Their top model by most accounts falls around the 3070, so with the synergy thing maybe get it close to 3080

[fossil cedar]

imo for igpu either 12400 non f or 12600k on intel no point going 12500/600 non k imo since price is so close and 5600g if theyre not going to be adding a gpu

[ornate condor]

12600k is great cpu

I pairing it with 3080 now

It's much better than my old 10700k

[potent portal]

Sure the K is, but the non-K that's missing the E-cores is

[earnest olive]

at least you get higher ring clock

[strong raft]

I'd take even 12400 over the 10700/11700, but selling z590 mobo wasn't quick/ez 😅. 11700F is still a huge upgrade for me.

[earnest olive]

but yeah it bothers me that 12600 and 12600K have a different core config

sets a weird precedent when K used to only mean overclockable

inb4 we start seeing cursed F cpus with lower cores

[glacial umbra]

what's msrp on non-fe 3070 ti?

like

[strong raft]

Yeah & then like the 12700F/k/kf where F on it specifically just means no igpu

[glacial umbra]

is 699 usd decent?

[potent portal]

Yeah that's not bad

[glacial umbra]

alright

I'm gonna try and sell my 3060 ti and upgrade

since my original plan was for a 3070 ti

[strong raft]

That's decent for FE also btw. I suggest 3070 or 3080. 3070 ti isn't that great

[glacial umbra]

it's uhhh 3 fan Asus tuf

this one

[potent portal]

Not bad at all

Is that on Newegg?

[glacial umbra]

canadacomputers

[potent portal]

Oh so it's in cad even? That's a great price

[glacial umbra]

879 cad yeah

canadacomputers has been restocking gpus quite a bit

and they've lowered prices quite a bit for most gpus

glad things are finally getting closer to normal

[fossil cedar]

yeah thats alright…. If you find a 3070 cheaper tho grab it instead unless its msi ventus

i hate this ipad keep tapping enter instead of delete ree

[frank stirrup]

skill issue

[strong raft]

Yea 3070 ti isn't all that great, and that warm gddr6x on it. Depending on price VS 70/80 of course.

[potent portal]

It's not that hot really. GDDR6X is usually hot only if you have a 3080 or higher, especially the 3090 with it being double sided and needing a good backplate.

[frank stirrup]

3090ti nice in regards to dat

all vram on one side

[potent portal]

Yeah that extra density letting it do dat

[frank stirrup]

2gig chips instead of 1 gig ones

me likey

[strong raft]

Oh that's good then.

[earnest olive]

g6x is g6x, you will have temp issues if mining on stock pads

if not mining it was never really an issue

except for like, rev 1 gigabyte cards

[potent portal]

They have a cheap flimsy aluminum heatsink that barely cools the gpu. The ventus 3x 3070 is really hot and the 2x actually throttles.

[fossil cedar]

Just msi ventus - mech is what they call it on amd

[earnest olive]

ventus is synonymous with hating yourself

I had to undervolt a 2070 super ventus to like 60% power to make it stop thermal throttling

it would thermal throttle so hard at stock

they put a cooler barely suitable for a 1050ti on a 2070 super

my laptop has a beefier cooler than ventus cards

ventus should be renamed vomitus

[little osprey]

🅱️entus

[ornate condor]

my brother bought rog strix 3060ti and when I check cpu-z I see memory vendor is Hynix instead of samsung 🤔

is that normal lol

[stoic island]

Ye, memory vendor shouldn't really matter for gddr6

Hynix is still good

[ornate condor]

I thought all nvidia chips coming from samsung lol

[fossil cedar]

Nope only g6x

[ornate condor]

oh

so gddr6 have several vendor but samsung is only gddr6x maker on market

[fossil cedar]

yup

[stoic island]

Samsung and micron both make gddr6x iirc

Don't think hynix does g6x though

[ornate condor]

is samsung mem better than hynix ? lol couse I see lots of bad reviews about hynix mems on internet right now lol

[stoic island]

Hynix ram or vram

Pretty different

And well, depends

As a side note, hynix is currently better than Samsung at ddr5,

[mossy venture]

hello people 😁

[ornate condor]

oh I think they talking about rams lol

[stoic island]

Gddr6 wise, I think Samsung might be better? But doesn't matter for running at stock

[fossil cedar]

thought g6x was made by samsung?

[stoic island]

https://www.micron.com/products/ultra-bandwidth-solutions/gddr6x

[ornate condor]

weird stuff lol

[fossil cedar]

oop

[stoic island]

Hello

[fossil cedar]

im tripping

is it micron only?

[stoic island]

Looks like it

[ornate condor]

I guess some miners complaining about hynix mems lol

[stoic island]

Rule #3

[ornate condor]

couse they can't oc it as well as samsung

[stoic island]

There's better places for selling anyways

[velvet abyss]

i need a good place to advertise it

[stoic island]

r/hws is good, Facebook marketplace is good

[fossil cedar]

Also youre charging wayy to much for it

[ornate condor]

also looking for decent 240mm aio for top mounting 🤔

oh maybe 280mm tho . didn't check if my case supports 280mm on top but its thick so I guess it will

[fossil cedar]

280 or 360 if it fits

[ornate condor]

360 not gonna fit

[fossil cedar]

arctic liquid freezer

go 280 if you can

[ornate condor]

I dont want to tear it down to front mounting lol just wanna mount it to top

[mossy venture]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/Mw9q3y

can anyone review?

budget build

🙃

[fossil cedar]

why would you need to tear stuff down?

[fossil cedar]

whats the budget?

[mossy venture]

$1000

ish

aud

[ornate condor]

I see tbh I would go for 12400F if price is not high there

[mossy venture]

it is overpriced down under

[fossil cedar]

Okey 1 sec

[mossy venture]

I'm just doing some final peer check before i buy

[ornate condor]

my gpu barely fitting into case lol also theres holes for 280mm on top but im also not sure about if theres enough room for radiator couse looks like theres no room between mobo and top

[stoic island]

Pato prob working on it already, but would swap to 12100 and would try to fit 3060

[stoic island]

Btw no PSU?

[ornate condor]

yeah 3060 is much better but price difference can be high in different countries

[stoic island]

500aud for that 3050, 580 for a 3060 on pcpp, pcpp might be lying again but well

[ornate condor]

i think 3060 worth for extra 80bucks

[mossy venture]

reusing an old corsair 750w

[stoic island]

What exactly?

[mossy venture]

lemme check

hx750w pro series

[ornate condor]

btw I already have 12900k but 12900KS is really tempting lol

[stoic island]

Hx will do fine

[fossil cedar]

you need wifi?

[mossy venture]

ye

no ethernet in my room

will 3060 do well with the cpu i got?

ah nvm

out of stock

stfu crypto miners

[ornate condor]

lol

shortage is about to end actually

[mossy venture]

ooh

how long ish?

[ornate condor]

theres plenty much gpus in stock in US and prices falling as well

[mossy venture]

yeah but not in aus

[ornate condor]

maybe soon lol

[mossy venture]

maybe fingers crossed

[fossil cedar]

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/Ycmvfv

[mossy venture]

but my bday is coming up so i kinda want the pc ordered asap

[fossil cedar]

yeah thats just us bro

[mossy venture]

ty

[fossil cedar]

np

[ornate condor]

nice case tho

[mossy venture]

don't need psu

i have a pau

psu

[fossil cedar]

oh btw just saw youre reusing psu

[mossy venture]

yeah

[fossil cedar]

yeah you can use that then

[ornate condor]

yeah I thought stock getting better in general lol

[mossy venture]

that ram is sketch ngl

hmm

[fossil cedar]

nah US just gets stupid disproportionate stock

[ornate condor]

lol

[fossil cedar]

mah its fine but if you want get the ballistix for 3 more very nice if you want to oc the ram too

[fossil cedar]

it does…. Evga queue is still only way to buy from them in eu and still closed

[ornate condor]

I wonder is upgrading from 12900K to 12900KS worth it ? lol

[fossil cedar]

lool nooo

[ornate condor]

meanwhile evga cards in stock at newegg too in US

[fossil cedar]

ye

[mossy venture]

3 more? huh

[fossil cedar]

and no b stock drops either

mhm

[mossy venture]

i don't want to oc

[ornate condor]

lol got 12900K but idk 12900KS is so tempting

[mossy venture]

wdym by 3 more

[fossil cedar]

dollars

[mossy venture]

oh lmao

ye I'll get basillistix

[fossil cedar]

only worth for comp benching

[ornate condor]

5.5ghz worlds fastest gaming cpu lol

[mossy venture]

so stick with gpu that i had before or not?

[fossil cedar]

5.2 stock

[fossil cedar]

go with the one i put in the list

[mossy venture]

why

[ornate condor]

I'm not sure about there but in us its wroth to hold for just a little more for gpu couse prices falling down

[mossy venture]

it's a small price diff

[fossil cedar]

cuz its the cheapest 3050

[ornate condor]

my 12900k can do 5.2ghz with oc tho

[fossil cedar]

exactly

[ornate condor]

but drawing over 300w

[mossy venture]

but triple fan is cool 😎

[ornate condor]

I dont think 3050 need 3fan lol

[fossil cedar]

that’s just i9 things

it doesn’t

spending more than the cheapest 3050 makes no sense

[mossy venture]

ok... :(

[ornate condor]

good thing is it have E cores which is equalising general power usage lol

it eats power as crazy under load lol

[scenic turret]

ikr

[mossy venture]

oh and I wanna stick with the nzxt h510

[ornate condor]

sad thing is theres no any new white strix cards no 3080ti , 3080 12gb , and 3090tie tho

[mossy venture]

flow

[mossy venture]

sadge

[ornate condor]

no vision either

at least vision have 3080ti

[mossy venture]

what about this? https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/GZjCzf

[ornate condor]

why is gigabyte eagle cards are so ugly lol

[mossy venture]

ikr

i want the old triple fan one

anyway

[ornate condor]

I see its 30bucks more

[mossy venture]

will it perform the same as the triple fan one?

[mossy venture]

*less

[mossy venture]

Within a few percent, but cooling is a good bit worse

[mossy venture]

so is it worth getting the other one?

[ornate condor]

tbh I dont like gigabyte cooling in general lol

[mossy venture]

wait

hold up

war pig was right

it is $60 more

the eagle is $60 more

i'm going with triple fan

it's CHEAPER to go triple fan

[ornate condor]

lol cheaper = better

If my PC won't boot after installing a new CPU and I've checked the ram, the fan is working, the old CPU works and I'm 99% sure it's compatible, is it likely my bios that needs to be updated?

[south cliff]

Ok so I am buying a new mobo and I was wondering if the gigabyte z690 aero is any different from the aurorus z690 elite other than looks?

[obsidian wigeon]

Which mobo and cpu are you pairing together with?

[south cliff]

Is there any difference between the gigabyte z690 aero and the arous z699 elite?

[obsidian wigeon]

Hm, there doesn't seem to be much difference between the two

[earnest olive]

@mossy venture triple fan is not automatically better

there are plenty of examples of poorly designed triple fan cards losing to well designed dual fan cards on the same GPU

for example, sapphire pulse 5700xt (2 fan) > gigabyte gaming 5700xt (3 fan) > asus rog strix 5700xt rev 1 (3 fan)

manufacturers know triple fan looks good, but the rest of the cooler design is honestly more important

also, investigate the price of i3-12100, it's honestly a better buy than i5-10400 for gaming nowadays if you're on a budget

it looks like you're planning to use the i5-10400 stock cooler; the i3-12100f also comes with a far superior stock cooler

[fast dirge]

It was the bios. Up and running now, thank you for responding 😊

[obsidian wigeon]

Ah, I was suspecting that too

[earnest olive]

nice, you got the xeon?

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/hkpp2m @mossy venture stronger newer cpu on newer platform for slightly cheaper

[mossy venture]

ok

ty orange

but

the other one i'm willing to pay fkr

for

looks way better

and triple fan is better airflow 😁

btw that b660 is stuck on red i kinda don't wanna use it

so I'm using the older one

[obsidian wigeon]

triple fan doesn't automatically mean better airflow either

It all blends down to cooler design as a whole

Not fan count

[mossy venture]

ight

I'll use the eagle

and the cpu

BUT

i need a better wifi motherboard

cos that one is UGLY

max $200aud

no need bios update?

[potent portal]

Probably not but I think it has flashback anyway

[humble fossil]

ok

Thx

[potent portal]

Yeah it does. You can update without a CPU.

I'd get the 5600 instead of the 5600X btw, or whichever is cheaper

[humble fossil]

I think they are about the same price now

5600g

and 5600x

[potent portal]

No not the G, just 5600

[jagged trail]

gotta keep it under 900, tryna pick up a 3060 ti or 6600 xt https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BPTRTn thoughts?

oh

[potent portal]

https://youtu.be/ifI9nnmW5sg

[humble fossil]

A difference of about $70

[jagged trail]

not worth

[potent portal]

Whichever is cheaper, they're basically the same and you can even overclock to close the gap completely

[humble fossil]

what do you have cpu - gpu?

[potent portal]

Mine? 5800X and 3080 ti

[humble fossil]

i have to go sorry

[potent portal]

No worries

[analog pulsar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cBxWYg
would this be a good build or would a 5600G be a better option

[strong raft]

5600g/x better

[potent portal]

At that price range I'd almost consider a Pentium Gold G7400. Better single core, newer platform.

12100 is obviously better if possible

[strong raft]

G7400 is the 2c/4T huh, surprisingly good in games tbh. Read a review a while back.

[potent portal]

Yeah, it would get the job done and allow for an upgrade later

[analog pulsar]

well something they can use for some time ig

but they might get another build from a friend

[potent portal]

Yeah best bet at that budget is used. Or at least as many salvaged parts from other computers as possible.

[fast dirge]

Can I ask about is USB port issues here?

[little osprey]

No you can’t

That’s not allowed

!ask

[still roost]

https://dontasktoask.com/

[little osprey]

What’s the problem

[fast dirge]

(sorry for length) Generally I would describe it as them working and not working with no seeming pattern - I have to have things plugged into certain ports, and have to keep switching them around because they randomly stop working. One example was plugging a Bluetooth receiver in the back stops my keyboard/mouse receiver in the front. Even after taking the Bluetooth out I have to unplug the keyboard thing, then into a USB hub I have (plugged into the same BUS) then I can put it back where it was originally and it will work. My wifi works at different speeds in different ports. I have tried so many combinations and ways of setting it up but I don't know what else to do or where what to replace to fix it. Ultimately I just want audio out of my Bluetooth headset that doesn't skip...

This is a Dell refurb, I had similar issues with another Dell refurb I had recently - I don't know enough about computers to know or troubleshoot if it's the actual USB bus (or whatever it's called), so I'm trying to find an answer here 😊

(the Bluetooth audio I know could be because of my wifi and other things - I am replacing my wifi adapter anyway to hopefully rule that out)

[potent portal]

What processor and motherboard chipset do you have?

[fast dirge]

CPU is xeon e5-1650

Motherboard is Dell 08HPGT w/Sandy bridge-E r.07 chipset (?)

Bios is ver. A18, which I installed today

[teal hazel]

Hello I recently swapped my gpu in my pc however after swapping it I found that my system changed its boot disk to an older drive that originally was the boot disk. I tried disconnecting this disk resetting the cmos and obviously made sure to change the boot drive in the bios. My system still refuses to boot on my other drive can anyone help me?

This is my first build my budget is around $2,500 , can anyone help me with recommendations or even changes that you would make to make the pc build even better i really would appreciate the help im stressing over the parts lol im just ready to click ORDER already so if anyone can help please

Feel free to tag me or pm me

[autumn wolf]

@dim moon

case: corsair 4000d airflow or a phanteks case like a p400a or something.

fans: arctic p12 or p14 unless you want rgb then probably a different brand because corsair fans cost a lot for their rgb stuff

cooler: arctic liquid freezer ii unless you want rgb then me personally i dont know how well that cooler master one performs

im not sure how good that psu is, refer to the psu tier list or if someone else is online ask to see if that one is alright to use.

the storage is decent but you could probably save some money or find something better at the same price or cheaper

also for a side note for future reference, for rgb components, when selecting them, make sure that they are compatible because having multiple different rgb products can cause some hassle such as with your list of having corsair fans and a cooler master aio and then msi case with rgb fans

the corsair fans take their own rgb hub/headers and its own software while the cooler master and msi may be universal* and might work within each others softwares but thats a lot of cables to deal with also

also remove the windows 10 from your list as windows 10 is free from their own website, you would just have to activate it with a product key

[frank stirrup]

how much u getting the 3070ti

a 3080/ti should be possible in 2.5k usd

[autumn wolf]

if you need more help/suggestions from more people, try asking again somewhere between like 11am~5pm pst

more people are on during the day

@dim moon

[desert gulch]

why a 12700k

not much perf youll gain over a typical 12700f

esp for price

you can save by going cheaper cooler, mobo, and cpu

[frank stirrup]

igpu tho

very nice

[desert gulch]

they already have a 3080ti

so idk man

[frank stirrup]

its very helpful with troubleshooting tho lol

[dim moon]

I have the slightest idea when it comes to building a pc my guy

[desert gulch]

id also swap ssd

[dim moon]

I just went to pc part picker picked some stuff

[frank stirrup]

also z690 boards do be compatible with 13th gen when it comes out

so he can upgrade later

[desert gulch]

who would upgrade to 13th gen tho

tbf

[frank stirrup]

its the cheapest b tier ssd rn so idk lol

[frank stirrup]

having that option is always nice

lol

[desert gulch]

id rather save 10 bucks and grab a kc2500 if it were me

[frank stirrup]

I wouldnt really do dat

p5 is great

[desert gulch]

kc2500 better

[dim moon]

If anyone had any builds around 25-2600 for streaming and gaming , id rather have someone with experience like you guys then myself piecing it together

[desert gulch]

why would you pay more for a worse drive

[dim moon]

$2500-$2600 for complete build list

[desert gulch]

there isnt testing on the 2tb but its the same idea

by tomshardware

other reviewers have it

[frank stirrup]

maybe look at size of the ssd and prices

before coming at me

lmfao

esp nowadays

[frank stirrup]

ehhhhhhhhhhhh

not rteally

[desert gulch]

im not saying its justified

but gn vid got so many views

[frank stirrup]

anyway if u wanna help make a list instead of arguing

[desert gulch]

you know tons of people are gonna think shallow

[frank stirrup]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/emojis/794985831873773608.webp?size=48&quality=lossless

L

list looks alright

[frank stirrup]

I know

[desert gulch]

do they want the nvidia features?

[frank stirrup]

i made it

[desert gulch]

if not, they could go 6900xtxh

if they wanted more raw gaming perf

[frank stirrup]

streaming

[desert gulch]

ah ok then

yeah

[dim moon]

Streaming + Gaming

Ill paste the build you gave me again later today see what everyone else opinions, after that ill begin my order

[desert gulch]

hows the lf2 on SPR-X?

[frank stirrup]

spr-x?

[desert gulch]

sapphire rapids x

12th gen

same thing

[frank stirrup]

no not same reeeeee

bad

jus say 12th gen

[desert gulch]

but i had SPR-X hotkeyed

[frank stirrup]

its top 3

[desert gulch]

so im lazy

is the coldplate shaped well for thicc 12th gen tho?

[frank stirrup]

galahad ek and lf2

[desert gulch]

or does it need washer mod?

[frank stirrup]

nope

its great stock

[desert gulch]

ah ok

[frank stirrup]

only old used /lapped coolers need washer no?

[desert gulch]

idk ive only done mid tier lga1700 builds so far

12700f is highest ive gone

havent even thrown an aio on any yet

[potent portal]

There's some that are badly designed/poor pressure

[desert gulch]

only 224xt, ak620, and a couple other air coolers

[frank stirrup]

yee im talking about the decent reputed ones we usually talk about

[desert gulch]

there possibly may be a noctua there

i dont shill noctua tho

client just wanted one so i kinda complied lol

i def didnt literally pay $70 for a u12s that probably performs like a 224xt

@frank stirrup this is a little sus

[frank stirrup]

ur sus

[desert gulch]

it seems like the 280 beats the 360 on a 12900k

lf2

[frank stirrup]

thats

hard to believe

[desert gulch]

surface area ig

[frank stirrup]

360 still has a lil more

surface area

[desert gulch]

hmm

but then again, 140mm fan moves more air

but is it enough when it has one less fan?

this is interesting

im looking thru a bunch of independent reviewers and it seems to say the same thing

[frank stirrup]

360mm rad size
398 x 120 x 38 mm

280mm rad size
317 mm x 138 mm x 38 mm

[desert gulch]

yeah

so gn has their 360 barely beating 280

but other ppl have 280 beating 360

[frank stirrup]

they could be within margin

[desert gulch]

gn's def is

[frank stirrup]

but i find it very sus that 280 beating 360

[desert gulch]

but others arent as much

illl link the vids

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB-VNZrjLBI

theyre not super credible sources

but the amount of them adds a little credibility

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1KAQweqoonw

its kinda sus cause on here, the 280 did quite a bit better

like almost beyond margin of error

[restive halo]

Anyone have a few minutes for couple questions?

[formal girder]

Go ahead and ask your questions

[restive halo]

1. Is this PSU good enough for this build?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hQXGqm

2. How would I go about flashing the bios without another cpu?

[restive halo]

The only reason I asked is because I only have a few minutes lol.

[formal girder]

Alright give me a moment and I'll try to change a few things on your list if you haven't paid for anything yet and try to do better

Also what is your budget

[fossil cedar]

well one... do you have any parts if any. 2 are you in the US and 3 whats the budget?

because i would swap out basically every part

[formal girder]

[restive halo]

So the guy bought all of the parts accept the PSU. He just wants me to build it. I'm just grabbing a PSU that I can get before Wednesday.

[fossil cedar]

ohh and whats your use case

ahh same.....

thats a pretty bad selection

[restive halo]

He is gaming

[fossil cedar]

youre in the US yeah?

[restive halo]

Yes

I told him the same thing

[fossil cedar]

yeah ik just VERY unoptimal

i hope they didnt pay 180$ for 3200c16 ballistix 32gb

[earnest olive]

there's only one optimal list

[fossil cedar]

and what is that wise one

[earnest olive]

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/DAOKOfan/saved/pxpKXL

this one

[fossil cedar]

lol

[earnest olive]

ugh the embed update

[fossil cedar]

cant argue with that

[earnest olive]

it was funnier when the embed just said intel

[restive halo]

That psu is better then the corsair?

[fossil cedar]

just as good and cheaper

[earnest olive]

no, but the one you picked is overkill

[fossil cedar]

[earnest olive]

throwing money in water

[fossil cedar]

theyre both A tier tho and same wattage lol

[earnest olive]

and also corsair tends to not be the best value

[restive halo]

Only reason I ask I'd the corsair will be here quicker

Ok I'll grab the one you listed

Also the motherboard being flashed

[earnest olive]

gold A vs blue A if we want to be technical about it

[fossil cedar]

well yeah but ehh

small diff

big money savings

[earnest olive]

it's not a meaningful difference, I am agreeing with you

[fossil cedar]

ye

[earnest olive]

just answering his question fully

[restive halo]

I appreciate it

[earnest olive]

650 rmx kind of doesn't have a reason to exist

[fossil cedar]

uhh that motherboard should have bios flashback... it will explain it in the manual if it isnt 5000 ready for some reason

[earnest olive]

paying that much for 650w just doesn't make any sense

[fossil cedar]

when its on sale its fine but normal price is icky

[earnest olive]

does it? my b550 steel legend surprisingly doesn't have bios flashback

[restive halo]

Oh ok

[earnest olive]

luckily it came 5000 ready out of the box, I had a spare 3600x on hand though

[fossil cedar]

it should lemme double check

[earnest olive]

nope it doesn't

well, there's a 99.999% chance that it's 5000 ready out of the box, considering how old zen 3 is by now

but worst case you can pull your 3700x and use that to update

[restive halo]

I appreciate all the help. Usually I do the list and the have them buy the parts. But he heard through a mutual friend I could build so he just bought all the parts.

[fossil cedar]

uhh it doesnt

[earnest olive]

asrock doesn't seem to think bios flashback is a feature worth adding

[fossil cedar]

well it should be ready by now so just pray - if not return for a different board

also ugggh wtf asrock

[fossil cedar]

on a 200$ board thats stupid

[fossil cedar]

thats pretty fast tbh

[restive halo]

I literally just finished a build and have 3 more to do.

[formal girder]

Me waiting for 13th gen to upgrade the CPU and use bios flashback for 5 more fps

[fossil cedar]

you dont need to use bios flashback tho you can use normal bios update

[formal girder]

But I paid for button

On board

[fossil cedar]

Lol well if you do an oopsie you will be safe 😛

[formal girder]

Yeah lol

[latent sandal]

hi guys

what air cooler should i get for i5 12400f

[obsidian wigeon]

gammaxx 400 should do

if it has lga 1700 bracket

[civic tusk]

Can get one from deepcool for it if not

Kinda annoying tbh lga1700 has been out for a good while now and still coolers don't ship with mounting hardware

[obsidian wigeon]

ya

[civic tusk]

Had the same thing happen to me this week with a pure rock 2 for a build for someone

Even after be quiet saying that all coolers will be shipping with the mounting hardware now

[earnest olive]

yeah, luckily boards that aren't 5000 ready basically shouldn't exist by this point

zen 3 is OLD

the amount of bad luck you'd need to get NOS from that long ago...

[ornate condor]

My asus LC360 aio had included lga1700 mounting kit even I bought it 2 months before 12th gen launched

[mellow oasis]

[little osprey]

That’s a sick pc build bro

[thin cloak]

Hi

[tardy knoll]

Can anyone help me properly choose a good surge protector/back ups option for my PC build?

[potent portal]

Are you just looking for surge protection or UPS power supply?

[tardy knoll]

Both

[desert gulch]

Surge protection can be as simple as a good power strip

[potent portal]

Amazon Basics has a halfway decent UPS

[tardy knoll]

This is what I got, but it's already thrown an error code a week into owning it. So I was gonna return it and possibly get the next size up just to have it. As the PSU I got to replace the one that came in my prebuilt that went bad is quite a bit bigger than this build needs (thinking ahead to future upgrades/builds). So I'm still kinda undersized for the PSU's potential. Though per my build specs I should be around 430w under max load

[visual notch]

https://www.amazon.com/APC-Battery-Protector-BackUPS-BX1500M/dp/B06VY6FXMM/

[tardy knoll]

Where I'm getting messed up is people telling me I want pure sine wave. Which that appears significantly more expensive to buy a back ups that has pure sine wave while on the back up.

[tardy knoll]

That's the next step up and what I was looking at

[potent portal]

The size of UPS you need depends on the expected load and how long you need it to run for. Most of the time you can get away with a lower rated one because your goal is to gracefully shut down the PC in case of power interruption.

[tardy knoll]

Yea. This guy in robeytech blew me out because I have a 850w PSU and the UPS says 600w... But my build under full load should even break 450w... I'd think it's about actual consumption not ratings

Going any bigger will just get me more run time, or have me better prepared for a future build

[potent portal]

How long do you need it to run for, though?

[desert gulch]

Keep in mind power efficiency of PSU too

[tardy knoll]

It's mainly this pure sign wave stuff. I'd think it's not that important to have it on battery back up unless I expect to use the PC for more than a few minutes which I don't.

Enough time to save my work, let QuickBooks backup to cloud etc and shut down really.

[desert gulch]

So even if your build after the power is in DC takes 400 watts, you'll still see a higher draw at the outlet

Just a little thing to keep in mind

[potent portal]

You can totally use a lower rated unit then, as long as it gives you that nice clean sine wave

[tardy knoll]

Ohh that's true. It has to draw higher wattage to successfully get the desired amount to the PC consistently. Good point.

[tardy knoll]

Am I understanding this right, as long as I'm not on battery and on normal power it's always a pure sine wave right? Only time we are talking pure, stepped or simulated is for the battery right?

[potent portal]

Yeah, you don't really need a UPS for this even. There's much cheaper things that will clean up the power.

[tardy knoll]

If I got that right then I'll just get the bigger option and not stress it. If my PC ever got ruined it would fall under their warranty of up to 150k coverage. I'd get full retail costs of the damaged parts

[tardy knoll]

Wait slow down. Gonna lose me here. Would we be talking about cleaning up the power while on normal power too or just battery back up?

The short video I watched said the power lines basically send in a pure sine wave. Then some battery back ups have to use a stepped sine wave to copy that during a power outage.

I'm just trying not to have anything someone is gonna tell me isn't proper. It does say that stepped sign wave can make sensitive electronics glitchy... At the same time going off just the info apc gives with their products my device should be safe 🤷🤦😭

[potent portal]

The short version of the concept is that by taking the wall AC input, converting it to DC, and then back to AC, you get much more stable voltage

You don't need a big battery for this

[tardy knoll]

That's what the PSU does though

[potent portal]

No, the PSU takes AC and converts it to DC

BUT

If the input voltage is unstable so is the output (to a degree)

[desert gulch]

depends on the psu aswell

some cant handle ripple well

[potent portal]

Well built power supplies will be able to better compensate yes

[tardy knoll]

The input and output has matched whenever I've checked it

I have this

[potent portal]

Where are you measuring this?

[tardy knoll]

Way more than my build needs.

Also tells me the wattage being drawn from it by PC and monitors

[potent portal]

That input voltage is from the wall yes. But if the voltage were to suddenly drop to 110V, without the UPS or an inverter your PC could crash.

That's the point of "cleaning up" the power

You get constant stable voltage

[tardy knoll]

Does the PSU have an inverter?

[potent portal]

It does

But it isn't meant to handle unstable power

[tardy knoll]

Ok, so basically an UPS is additional clean up

[potent portal]

Yes

That way the power supply doesn't risk having it's protections tripped or unstable output voltage causing instability

[tardy knoll]

So how about the pure sine wave versus stepped or simulated part for the UPS

[potent portal]

https://blog.tripplite.com/pure-sine-wave-vs-modified-sine-wave-explained

[tardy knoll]

Yea, but as far as telling what UPS have what I'm confused AF.

Sounds like a normal UPS switches to stepped/modified anytime it switches to battery. Which people say can make sensitive electronics glitchy. But the only ones I see that advertise sine wave stuff for while on battery are significantly more expensive

[potent portal]

Pure sine is mostly for more sensitive equipment and is more expensive.
PC hardware isn't THAT sensitive, unless you're running a server or something that needs 99.99999% reliability

Examples of times you want pure sine would be using high end audio equipment

A little ripple in the voltage can cause static or other issues

[tardy knoll]

Ok so it must not be that big of a deal if APC is so lenient selling these UPS and offering such good coverage for your devices. It's a lifetime warranty for up to 150k for any connect devices.

[tardy knoll]

But this is only while on battery back up that it's a concern right?

[potent portal]

It would be a concern on main or backup power in that scenario

But for PC hardware it's overkill unless you're having major issues with your power

[tardy knoll]

Reading that blog now too

Yea idk who the heck tripped me up even mentioning this crap lol...

[potent portal]

Also keep in mind that typical applications for pure sine wave UPS systems involve the protection of critical server, network, medical and telecommunications equipment or electronic equipment that is particularly sensitive to input power, such as lab test equipment. Modified sine wave UPS systems typically protect PCs, home entertainment systems, A/V components and media centers.

[tardy knoll]

So it's just decreased performance and efficiency while on stepped ... Not like gonna mess anything up..

Ok thanks I'm good to go now

Whoever was being harsh on what I currently have saying I need a pure sine wave is a butthead

[potent portal]

Gatekeepers are like that sometimes

[tardy knoll]

What's a gatekeeper lol

[potent portal]

The kind of person that says "no you need the best or else it's trash and you're trash"

[tardy knoll]

😆

So the 1500va one is 199$ currently at best buy. The cyber power one of same size is 169.99

The 1500va APC one was 180 last week. And when I read the boxes the cyber power looked to have quite lower run times on battery

The coverage on devices is way higher though than APC. And has the phone ports to charge your phone

LOL this one has customizable RGB may have to grab dat lmao

[vague oracle]

don’t be me and run a completely overkill rack setup for your PC

[potent portal]

What's that? I can't hear you over my 14k rpm delta fans!

[serene spire]

What’s a good price to pay for either 3060ti and/or 3070

[potent portal]

3060 ti $500-600
3070 $600-700

Both should be doable with a little patience, the shortage is letting up

[little osprey]

^ gpus popping up left and right these days

[serene spire]

Newegg and Best Buy are dropping gpus like absolute crazy

[vague oracle]

Amazon recently had some good deals on GPUs also imo

3080 12gb for $1050 and a bunch of 3070tis for ~$750

[potent portal]

3080 12gb is a scam perpetrated by nvidia. No way in hell that an extra 2gb of memory is worth $200.

[vague oracle]

Oh 100%

But considering every other one out there is $1300+, $1050 isn’t a bad deal

When amazon got deals for gpus you know things getting better

[potent portal]

A bad deal after a sale is still a bad deal

Can anyone tell me what this Microsoft visual redistributable mess is that is clogging up one of my hard drives?

On there 8 times at different dates/times

Also doom appears to be taking up 89 gb in two diff places

Doom is literally in the apps and features folder taking up 89gb and then in the other folder it has Xbox games and shows doom taking up 89gb??

I'm looking to buy a server rack off amazon. I need it to be able to fit several of these. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01JBG0LW0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1 And the place I'm placing the server is 36 inches tall. Any suggestions?

[tardy knoll]

Says im using 476 gb total but really it seems it should be 89gb less

Anyone know how to install drivers my wifi card isn’t working

Is that what I’m supposed to download?

[potent portal]

Best way to wipe pc before I sell

[obsidian wigeon]

Reinstall windows

That's all there is to it

[earnest olive]

that deletes file references but some data may be recoverable by someone who knows what they're doing

since the actual drive doesn't get overwritten

you can try using the built in windows full reset that overwrites the data, easiest solution, sometimes doesn't work properly (like it gets stuck) but worth trying

Anyone know why I’m getting this error code in steam?

[earnest olive]

@restive halo

[plain grove]

Is it a problem with my pc

I’m tryna play dying light but I’m getting that error code

[earnest olive]

google the error code

this isn't really a place to ask about steam errors

[obsidian wigeon]

I mean, how many people who knows that stuff exists?

[plain grove]

Cant find much stuff on it

[earnest olive]

few enough that I personally don't bother, especially since I don't keep important stuff on my PCs usually

but if he's more security minded then he's allowed to be

I just answered his question

[obsidian wigeon]

ye, true

[restive halo]

Thank you

[earnest olive]

np, hope it works for you

[fossil cedar]

Yeah but basically all high end AMD boards have flashback

[earnest olive]

well now you know that asrock apparently missed the memo

[fossil cedar]

Badrock moment
