[fossil cedar]

Nope i used it a few days after i got mine too

Think that was the original plan but they changed it

[winter marsh]

Back I've escaped the toodler bounce house/water slide

[fossil cedar]

Just get the one in the list, there's no FE 3080 12gb + the aib one is better

[broken lake]

Ok

Idk I just like how the fe looks but if this is better I’ll get it

[opaque raven]

Does anyone here know a decent system builder that ships pre-builts without GPU's? Got a 3070ti but its hampered by my current AMD system and I suck at cable management so I don't want to build it myself.

[broken lake]

BRUH I’m talking to some dude and he said to buy a 20 tb ssd LMFAO

[dim mirage]

will a PCI to m.2 ssd adapter work with my old PC? https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813131837?Item=N82E16813131837

if so which adapter should I order?

[stoic island]

Pcie, yea, pci might be iffy

[strong raft]

Perhaps sabrents pcie slot adapter would work, but understand probably only for storage & can't boot from it on z77.

[dim mirage]

can I run games off it no problem?

that's a bummer you can't boot off it

[strong raft]

Yea if it shows up in windows, for sure. I feel ya, still using my z77 setup actually. 10 yr old mobo. 1st m.2 (nvme) stuff was a couple years after if I recall

[unborn mesa]

whats good thermal paste

[next dock]

is this psu good https://pcpartpicker.com/product/DZDJ7P/enermax-revolution-sfx-650w-80-gold-certified-fully-modular-sfx-power-supply-erv650swt

its $89

[mossy venture]

do you care about modular vs non modular?

[next dock]

needs to be sfx. modular would be cool but not necessary

[mossy venture]

ive not a clue about sfx psus

[next dock]

oh ok

[mossy venture]

id wait for someone elses opinion

[broken lake]

What gpu you got?

[next dock]

planning to do 12400 and 3060ti

figured 650w is fine, and 750w possibly for future gpu upgrades

[broken lake]

You should be fine with that then

650w is good 750w is safe with room for upgrades

[mossy venture]

im just not sure how good the psu is

650w is fine for a 3060 ti, just unsure on quality

[broken lake]

I mean it’s gold certified

[next dock]

gold doesnt mean anything

[mossy venture]

that means nothing

[next dock]

thats just the efficiency

[broken lake]

Oh

My friend told me that meant it was good lol

[mossy venture]

nah

[next dock]

your friend is wrong

[broken lake]

Clearly

[next dock]

its just a certification on some energy standard for power supplies

[mossy venture]

the only thing that the rating means is how efficient it is at delivering power it pulls from the wall

the only thing it says about quality is white psus tend to be bad]

that is not a 100% rule though

theres prolly some alright white units

[next dock]

silverstone =/= enermax right?

there is an entry for "revolution sfx" but its under silverstone on the psu tier list

[mossy venture]

outta curiosity

are you deadset on a sfx build/already bought stuff?

since sfx tends to cost more and have worse cooling

[next dock]

i would like my build to be sff, and im willing to pay extra for it, if thats what you're asking

i have not bought anything yet

[mossy venture]

whats your budget overall?

[next dock]

i understand that i will lose some performance from going sff but its a decision i have made

[broken lake]

What’s sfx?

[next dock]

1.4k, are you going to make me a list?

[mossy venture]

i can try, but i know next to nothing about sff pcs

i dont make lists for them often because of the meh price/perf

[next dock]

i see

[broken lake]

Is sfx special effects or something else?

[mossy venture]

i meant sff

[broken lake]

Oh

What’s sff

[next dock]

sfx is the size standard for power supplies that go in SFF (small form factor) builds

[broken lake]

Ah

[mossy venture]

^

[next dock]

the motherboards typically are ITX size standard

or mini-itx

[broken lake]

My pc rn is 50+ lbs lmao

[next dock]

you got an ancient one?

from like pre 2000 ?

[broken lake]

Alienware

From like 6 years ago

[next dock]

ah alienware cases are very chonky

[broken lake]

Too chonky

[fossil cedar]

https://tenor.com/view/basically-the-same-thing-anthony-mackie-red-falcon-literally-the-same-thing-not-a-change-gif-19648521

[broken lake]

Yea pretty much

[mossy venture]

just as a comparison, to see what you could get non sff https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7mR34s, its the best i can do atm @fossil cedar could make you a sff list (maybe)

if hes not busy

[next dock]

3080 is so tempting

Not sure if i'll really need that realistically tho

[fossil cedar]

2k budget was it?

[next dock]

1.4

[mossy venture]

well actuallyu

3080 would want a better psu

and prolly a p360a

[fossil cedar]

Yeah that case is not 3080 material

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WcFkJM more like that

[fossil cedar]

You wanted sff?

[next dock]

yes please

i do see the performance counterpart for ATX though

sacrifice im willing to make

[winter marsh]

That Phantek Eclipse Mid Tow Doesn't breath very well however

[fossil cedar]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/BnKmDq

[desert gulch]

Can those vrms even handle 95w?

[rich void]

Uhhh yes they can. The p400a and p500a offer excellent airflow, I don't see why the 360a would be any different

[earnest olive]

have put a high power build into a p360a

can confirm it's fine

[jagged ember]

not sure where you're getting this from

[winter marsh]

Aren't the front panels just clear plastic with little venting

[jagged ember]

are you talking about

the h510?

because that's the p360a

[rich void]

The front is mesh

[jagged ember]

yes, it is mesh

[rich void]

Phanteks aren't nzxt after all

[jagged ember]

this is an h510

plastic front, little venting

[winter marsh]

Nm it is a mesh front

Unlike my current case https://cougargaming.com/us/products/cases/mx410-t/

That is a clear plastic front panel

My 2nd case is nowhere near as bad https://www.newegg.com/p/2AM-0022-00058

a Zalman S4 Plus ATX Mid Tower Computer/PC Case

Last has to be the worst case I've ever purchased https://www.raidmax.com/product_d.php?lang=en&tb=1&id=84

Basically I've learned my lesson which is why I like the bland MSI case

[rich void]

I don't think I've heard of an MSI case with good airflow, but exceptions exist. Heck nzxt finally had an h510 version with a mesh front

[winter marsh]

NZXT used to be my primary full tower choice until I abandoned it foe Cooler Master's Storm Trooper mid towers

I wasn't initially concerned with case temps because I only have 65 Watt TDP Ryzen 3600XT or 5600X cpu's

[rich void]

That's too gamery for me personally

[winter marsh]

But I'm jumping on a Ryzen 7 5800X3D so air flow becomes an issue as if I had a Intel cpu

[mossy venture]

id do 12700f

cheaper and not a dead platform

and much less hot

[winter marsh]

I gave the kids i5 7990K cpu's on a Z97 mobo two years ago

[mossy venture]

whats your budget for the whole build?

and what have you bought?

[winter marsh]

They are do nothing web gaming gamers so I actually down graded them from GTX 1060's to 550 cards,

[mossy venture]

@winter marsh

[strong raft]

To be fair 5800X3D has crazy good gaming performance. Also 1) someone might not upgrade from 12700F to any 13gen. 2) That means maybe 14 gen or AM5 which is new mobo and ddr5 anyways.

[mossy venture]

5800x3d hotter, more expensive, and wont see a huge perf increase in gaming

not till next gen gpus

[winter marsh]

I built four intel 5/Z97/GTX 1060 desktops and three Ryzen 1500X/B450/GTX 1660 desktops for the kids'

[desert gulch]

Am5 may not be ddr5 only, iirc the CPUs will still have a D4 imc there's just not boards leaked yet that will support d4

[strong raft]

Eh, well another thing is 58003XD is $400+ while 12700F is $300ish quite often. Ryan, AMD sure would be smart to have some ddr4 mobos, but we'll see as ddr5 gets more common and becomes more decently priced. DDR5 sure isn't a budget option at all.

[winter marsh]

The 5800X3D is replacing my 3600XT (I'm passing down to a kid) on my Asus X570 WiFi set up as I can finally buy a RTX 3080

[desert gulch]

Yeah, itll be interesting for sure

[strong raft]

Not needing new mobo is almost when that's worth it, but 5700/5800X is still a good $100ish cheaper, just so ya know. Then there's also the 5600(X) that's $200ish and pretty close in games to the 8core models (excL X3D)

[winter marsh]

I'll pass down my last i5/Z97/1060 to a brat and rebuild a new Ryzen 7000 series once it's calmed down market/driver support wise

[desert gulch]

I'll probably go for a new RPL + RDNA3 build when it's all out and decently available

[winter marsh]

I'm buying three 5600X for three of the four B450 desktops along with new cards and ram

I'll game on the X3D/X570 until the new bugs are worked out

The MSI Mag case was purchased in part to match the kids new MSI Mag B550 Gaming Edge WiFi

He wanted wifi and bluetooth on the mobo like I have

So the bulk of his components are MSI manufactured except the EVGA PSU and UI

I play alot of MMO's, few FPS, and gearing up a HOTAS for Star Wars Squadrons.

I'd love to payback the Russian gamer's that tormented me in ACM/Templar GFX, not fun being a bug food treat every five minutes....

[misty heron]

hey my friend wants to build a pc. he says his budget is 600 but he says that he wants to play elden ring low settings on good fps

[mossy venture]

that aint happening

[misty heron]

sheesh

gg

[broken lake]

Ain’t no way

At that point just get a ps5

[misty heron]

elden ring that heavy?

[broken lake]

Or xbox series x

Yes

[misty heron]

he has another pc already but he wants to bring one to school

hahaha

[broken lake]

No it’s just a massive game

[misty heron]

gg then

[mossy venture]

lowest id do for elden ring https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wdRHGL

[broken lake]

It’s pretty well optimized for what it is but $600 ain’t even close to enough

[mossy venture]

then... he wants a laptop

[misty heron]

i dont think its beefy enough to play er

iirc

[mossy venture]

it def is

easily

medium settings

[misty heron]

gg then

ill tell him

[mossy venture]

however

if hes bringing it to school

hell be wanting a laptop

which id do $850 for a laptop with a 3060

or go used 2060 laptop

[broken lake]

Laptops are much cheaper than desktops

[mossy venture]

disagree

[broken lake]

Or you can just be like me and get the best deal ever on a pc

[broken lake]

Really?

[mossy venture]

3060 ti desktop is around $1200, 3070 laptop loses to it and costs about the same

if not more

and will also have a better cpu

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HGsN6r

[misty heron]

dang bro

[desert gulch]

Ak400, interesting. Don't see it too often lol

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/p63DZw actually id do this for better gpu shroud

[mossy venture]

eh, easier than peerless assassin in case it doesnt come with bracket

and similar cooling iirc

[desert gulch]

(214/224/244)xt all work too

[mossy venture]

224xt is meh

it keeps my 3600 cool enough

[desert gulch]

Nah take that back rn

224xt is epic

[mossy venture]

75c under load

with pbo

but not smthn id buy anymore

[desert gulch]

On what?

[mossy venture]

not with alternatives that exist

[desert gulch]

P95?

[mossy venture]

?

nah

cinebench r23 mc

[desert gulch]

75c fine for that tbh

[mossy venture]

no def

but theres better alternatives

[desert gulch]

244xt then

[mossy venture]

i cant even find that

sure that exists?

[desert gulch]

Ye

[mossy venture]

can you link it?

[desert gulch]

Wait no it's just amazon typo I think

Rip

[mossy venture]

ah

[desert gulch]

Thought it was just a better 224xt

Is there even any testing on the ak400?

[mossy venture]

iirc pato said it was decent

[desert gulch]

Pato is horribly based

He hates this pic

Horribly based

[strong raft]

https://www.guru3d.com/articles-pages/deepcool-ak400-air-cooler-review,1.html
It's only a 660g single tower, so it's not suited for hotter cpus. They tested it w/ a 3700X and 12900K of all things.

[winter marsh]

whats the TDP on the Deepcool AK400?

[potent portal]

Don't bother trying to use that, everyone measures it differently

[strong raft]

There's more than 1 reason that many coolers often don't have an actual TDP rating.

[winter marsh]

Nothing posted on the website https://global.deepcool.com/products/Cooling/cpuaircoolers/AK400-Performance-CPU-Cooler/2021/15222.shtml

[mossy venture]

ak400 fine for 5500-5700x or 12100-12400

12600k would be pushing it

[winter marsh]

What about the 5800X3D, I'm saddling a Amd Wraith Prism from my old FX 8350 cpu days... https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/cpu-cooler-solution

[rich void]

Definitely worth putting a good CPU cooler on the 5800x3d

[potent portal]

That's one of the hottest CPUs in circulation right now, it can actually get hotter than a 5950X because of heat density

[winter marsh]

Well the FX 8350 was a 125 watt TDP, my 3600XT is 65 watt TDP and the 5800X3D is supposed to be 105 watt TDP

[mossy venture]

yeah... no

[potent portal]

They changed how they measure TDP between FX and Ryzen

[mossy venture]

youre going to need a liquid cooler for that

[mossy venture]

tdp being "low" doesnt mean its cool

l3 cache is hot

it cant be oced, specifically because of the temps (we think, anyways)

[winter marsh]

I hate AIO's since my new Corsair H60 fried just from a case swap

[mossy venture]

amd didnt want people bricking cpus just with pbo

[mossy venture]

this is why we hate most corsair products here

[potent portal]

That's their excuse anyway, temps making it unstable. Also why they dropped clocks.

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/HZvdnQ/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-280-a-rgb-689-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-acfre00106a this might be enough

[winter marsh]

Lol I thought I was alone in my Corsair hate lol

[potent portal]

280mm is good

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/bVMTwP/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-420-728-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-acfre00092a tho this isnt much more

just depends on case size

[winter marsh]

No room for radiators in my mid towers anyway

[potent portal]

And no we're pretty in agreement here that Corsair might look good but performance is meh

[mossy venture]

then i wouldnt buy a 5800x3d

[potent portal]

External mount it

[mossy venture]

rmx and rm nearly the only exceptions

[desert gulch]

cxf too

[potent portal]

true

[mossy venture]

fair

but are those even made directly by corsair?

[desert gulch]

HEC units

[mossy venture]

i thought they had another company make them and slapped a corsair label on them

[desert gulch]

but rmx isnt either, its a CWT

[rich void]

What midtowers won't take a rad???

[mossy venture]

thought so

[potent portal]

Corsair modified the platform heavily

And that maglev fan on the RMx

[desert gulch]

i have a question for anyone who gets this right, what efficiency is a cxf?

[winter marsh]

https://www.newegg.com/enermax-ets-f40-bk-argb/p/N82E16835214110?Item=N82E16835214110

[potent portal]

Isn't it bronze but qualifies for silver?

[winter marsh]

https://www.newegg.com/cooler-master-hyper-212-rgb-black-edition-rr-212s-20pc-r1/p/N82E16835103277?Item=N82E16835103277

[mossy venture]

if you cant get an aio

dont get a 5800x3d

[desert gulch]

gold too

[mossy venture]

you won't be able to cool it

[desert gulch]

it actually depends if the argb is on or off lmao

it hits gold with argb off

[rich void]

@winter marsh

[desert gulch]

fun fact

[stoic island]

Do remember this is pinned in #cases-psu-and-cooling

And from last time, jonnyguru said it could be certified as 80+ silver

[winter marsh]

I'd be cutting it too close with the gpu

[desert gulch]

i asked jonny if it really hit 80+ gold with argb off

he said yes

[stoic island]

Fun

[rich void]

What case and GPU?

[desert gulch]

but corsair said it was bronze since it was so on edge of being silver that they couldnt label it as silver at the time

since itd be bad to send it to 80+ and have it rate lower than what it was

they only got a approximation with their equipment at the time

[potent portal]

Silver is basically nonexistent these days anyway, too close to both bronze and gold

[desert gulch]

ye

cxf (argb on) and cx are the only relevant silver units i know of

[strong raft]

[winter marsh]

Any Asus Tuf RTX 3080 at 300mm and this present case https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16811553056?Description=cougar atx case&cm_re=cougar_atx case-_-11-553-056-_-Product

[rich void]

That's the wrong link

[desert gulch]

$50 for a h212 is basically a scam

[rich void]

What case?

[potent portal]

212 black is good for a 5600X when it's on sale for $30

[mossy venture]

ak620 is the best heatsink that isnt too expensive

nh d15 might be better and might be enough for the 5800x3d, but not sure

i really would not recc buying it without an aio

[winter marsh]

Dimensions & Weight
Max GPU Length 300 (mm) / 11.8 (in) (Only fans at the front panel)
270 (mm) / 10.6 (in) (Radiator with fans at the front panel)

[mossy venture]

can you link your case please

nvm

you edited

that case is a furnace

[stoic island]

I mean they're literally certified as silver

[winter marsh]

https://cougargaming.com/us/products/cases/mx410-t/

[mossy venture]

i would change cases

[desert gulch]

yeah, but corsair had to label it before they sent it to 80+ for testing

[winter marsh]

this is my disaster case'

[stoic island]

fun

[desert gulch]

so they thought it was too close on the line to just call silver and hope itd pass

[winter marsh]

I intend too later on lol

[rich void]

Yeah legit just get a good case

[mossy venture]

i would do it now, so you can get an actual cooler over a heatsink that won't cool the cpu you get

especially with a 3080, that vram will melt

[desert gulch]

if argb wasnt on by default, thatd be a gold rating lol

[rich void]

Also you can slap a rad in the top of that case....

[winter marsh]

https://cougargaming.com/us/products/cases/mx660-t-rgb/

[desert gulch]

but some members of corsair were hella adamant of it being on by defauly

[stoic island]

Corsair's whole thing is argb

That's their brand image

[mossy venture]

do you love cougar or smthn

that doesnt look like a good case either

solid front

[desert gulch]

not for psus anymore sadly

[rich void]

Yikes they must hate airflow

[desert gulch]

jonny said they lost money on the cxf and only sold a couple hundred units lmfao

[stoic island]

ye

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/q3mTY9

[winter marsh]

Naw I just want to do as little work as possible to convert the grille

[mossy venture]

and wont melt the 5800x3d

[rich void]

Convert the grille?

Are you grilling on this PC?

[desert gulch]

with a 5800x3d you may as well

[winter marsh]

i meant that the case is basically upgraded

[mossy venture]

no...

[rich void]

Why would you "upgrade" to a slightly larger oven though?

[mossy venture]

that case is still a furnace

id rather an alienware case over that monstrosity

okay maybe thats an exageration

[winter marsh]

so I'll simply swap the fans and face from the new case without removing the motherboard or psu

[unborn mesa]

streaming is more intensive on a cpu or am i wrong

[rich void]

You could get a lian LI lancool 2 mesh, p400a, p500a, iirc there are others in the same price/size bracket from cooler master and others as well

[mossy venture]

nvidia gpus have streaming encoders

[stoic island]

td500 mesh h500 no suffix

[mossy venture]

youre not listening to what were saying

[naive swan]

tbf atleast that case can have fans

[mossy venture]

the case you want is a furnace

[unborn mesa]

Have an amd gpu so

[rich void]

You'll get a LOT more for the money you spend on the case if you get a good case instead

[mossy venture]

it will not help your case situation at all

sure you will be able to support an aio, but your gpu will still be crying for its life

[stoic island]

h500m also a thing but more expensive

[rich void]

There are so many good airflow cases now

[stoic island]

lancool 215, 4000d/5000d/7000d airflow, meshify c, fractal torrent, 500dx, etc

[mossy venture]

i like the p360a, but kinda biased

[rich void]

I mean earlier you claimed the p360a can't breathe, but you're looking at getting another one of these cougar hotboxes?

[rich void]

I have a 400a, I'd go lancool 2 mesh if I had to do it again

Or p500a

Not being able to mount a rad up top is kinda annoying

[mossy venture]

i could technically support a 280mm in my case

just dont have a point to atm lol

when i upgrade im switching cases anyways

ill prolly to a whole new build at this point and keep gpu and storage, whenever i decide to

case is mid at best, will need a new cpu and mobo and maybe ram, psu at 650w will have to go sooner or later

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/dgndnQ/thermaltake-versa-h18-microatx-mini-tower-case-ca-1j4-00s1wn-01 id do this before even that cougar case

wont be functional when you buy a 5800x3d and it runs at 100c

[winter marsh]

This table is worst than the iphone lol

[rich void]

Oof, they must've added that when they got pushback for not accommodating that on the top of the 400a

[winter marsh]

can't seem to take a decent pic of anything

[mossy venture]

i dont have any of the cases weve talked about lol

ive got a random coolermaster case

[rich void]

360a does accommodate it though, I checked

[mossy venture]

ahh

i see

misunderstood you

[rich void]

All good

[winter marsh]

I still have a CM Storm Trooper case pc to refurbish down here

a AMD 64 3200 cpu sitting on a Asus SLI Deluxe mobo

So old it cant run Win Vista or Sata

Why do Thermatake cases all look like truck parts?

https://www.newegg.com/racing-green-thermaltake-core-p6-tg-atx-mid-tower/p/N82E16811133467?Description=thermatake atx case&cm_re=thermatake_atx case-_-11-133-467-_-Product

[rich void]

Most of the ones I saw on their site don't look like that 🤷‍♂️

[mossy venture]

why are you deadset on ignoring the suggestions we made

[winter marsh]

I think I had to dispose of a phanteks by giving it no my nephew, I loved tne
somewhat love fractal design case but gave those too the kids as I didn't need the drive bays

my desk will house two mid towers so long as they are modest in width

So what I really need to research is a good Cpu fan cooler that can match any AIO

[mossy venture]

that doesnt exist

the closest you can getis the ak620, which will still not be enough for a 5800x3d

[rich void]

That's legit not a thing. AIOs eventually just outperform air coolers

[mossy venture]

i dont know why were repeating this for a 20th time

the 5800x3d on air is not a thing anyone should do, especially in that heater of a case

either dont get a 5800x3d, or upgrade cases and get an aio

[winter marsh]

so why does Newegg offer this package deal ? https://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails?ItemList=Combo.4492447

[mossy venture]

BRUH

do what you want

have fun

im done repeating myself

[rich void]

The lancool 2 mesh is only 19mm wider than your current case

[rich void]

To move the air cooler

[winter marsh]

@rich voidAIO fluids and pumps can't be monitored or maintained, if it dries out or gums up you won't know

[obsidian wigeon]

but with a good aio

there's no such problems

[rich void]

7mm wider: https://www.coolermaster.com/catalog/cases/mid-tower/masterbox-td500/#specifications

[mossy venture]

then simply don't get a 5800x3d

[obsidian wigeon]

it's not like we're giving you enermax or something

[rich void]

Warranties exist

[obsidian wigeon]

those things get clogged up

[mossy venture]

not like you need that cpu power with any current gen gpu

5800x3d and 5600 will see little difference in gaming with even a 3090 or 6900xt

at 1440p or 4k, anyways

[rich void]

There are good cases that are similar in size to what you have (and have considered upgrading to) but are far better all around

[mossy venture]

hes looking for people to agree with him, not for advice

[obsidian wigeon]

the only way 5800x3d would be viable on a beefy air cooler is if the case has good airflow

something like a torrent is needed

[mossy venture]

did you see the case hes using btw?

and or wants

[rich void]

Well you will know because temps would spike and performance would fall off a cliff (unless it was already thermal throttling, which it shouldn't in a reasonable set up)

[mossy venture]

forget if you were here when he mentioned them

[mossy venture]

he wants this

[obsidian wigeon]

i saw lol

been lurking

he can't be helped, shame

[mossy venture]

will never understand why people ask for advice and then don't listen to the 5 people answering him

[obsidian wigeon]

eh, stubborn people just won't listen

but anyway

im back to lurking around

[winter marsh]

you mean something like this ?
https://www.newegg.com/asus-liquid-cooling-system/p/N82E16835101071?Description=240mm am4 AIO&cm_re=240mm_am4 AIO-_-35-101-071-_-Product

[mossy venture]

no

no we do not

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/HZvdnQ/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-280-a-rgb-689-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-acfre00106a

[rich void]

That's ridiculously expensive for a 240

[mossy venture]

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/bVMTwP/arctic-liquid-freezer-ii-420-728-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-acfre00092a

[obsidian wigeon]

liquid freezer ii is much better value

[mossy venture]

either of those are top end liquid coolers

[rich void]

Yeah I'd go with an Arctic. Top end performance and good value

[obsidian wigeon]

6 years of warranty too

[mossy venture]

even this, if you happen to want it to be white https://pcpartpicker.com/product/DN92FT/lian-li-galahad-aio-360-rgb-uni-fan-sl120-edition-5854-cfm-liquid-cpu-cooler-ga-360sla

or

simply dont buy a 5800x3d

if you dont want an aio

get a 5900x instead and use an ak620

glad to have had this conversation 7 times, im out now

its 12:30 and i have school tommorow

[rich void]

Another option, if you insist on an air cooler a 5800x3d get a really beefy air cooler, instead of relatively cheap ones and get a high airflow case

[winter marsh]

all done with the AIO research, will compare them after work tomorrow so good night all.

[sand falcon]

Tldr on aio, if you don't care about looks buy the lfii

[unborn mesa]

A 5800x3d really runs hot enough for an aio?

[mossy venture]

Yes....

[unborn mesa]

Dang

[mossy venture]

It's hotter than rhe 5950x and as hot as a 12900k

Even the 5800x almost requires an aio

[unborn mesa]

I was thinking if getting a 5900x

[mossy venture]

5900x cooler than 5800x

[unborn mesa]

But kinda useless for me tbh

[mossy venture]

Itd be fine with an ak620

[unborn mesa]

Yup i ordered one it is supposed to get here today

Rn my case has its panel off

[high yew]

@mossy venture do be warned, any arctic aio has a huge rads to them

[mossy venture]

Kekw

[potent portal]

Maybe a 12700k, the 12900k will just guzzle down the juice. 250W at stock lol

[mossy venture]

L3 cache toastyyy

[high yew]

i have a 280 top mounted in a 4000d airflow, and the rad is so big that it started to interfere with my io shield cover on my mobo - so it’s connected by about 4/8 screws right now lol

[mossy venture]

But yeah maybe

[potent portal]

You only need 2 😎

[high yew]

360 front mounted fkr intakes and i couldn’t put on dust filters. they keep my temps low so big +

[high yew]

you right you right

speaking of which, if i got a top aio and they’re put as two exhausts do i need a single back exhaust?

[earnest olive]

you only need some tape and a dream

[potent portal]

Technically no, but it can help cool your motherboard VRM

If you've got a decent board that's not an issue

[high yew]

b660 gaming x ax

gigabyte

[potent portal]

Yeah VRM won't be an issue for you. Rear fan not required.

[high yew]

sweet less money to spend 😎

thanks you

[potent portal]

It's hard to tell if he's serious

[frigid night]

It's reddit. So probably is.

[potent portal]

But we really don't need that kind of misinformation either way, someone will believe it

Then we'll get people complaining about processors not fitting

[earnest olive]

you can use an amd cpu and an intel cpu in the same socket

it's just going to be a very, very old socket

socket 7 moment

[frigid night]

Kinda feel like should have a memes channel for stuff like this lol

[rotund zealot]

F it 16 fans

[potent portal]

https://tenor.com/view/i-do-it-because-i-can-jack-donaghy-30rock-i-do-what-i-want-im-capable-of-doing-it-gif-21884978

[rotund zealot]

Exactly

[fossil cedar]

There's not really any other decent 12th gen options, should be okay, it's gonna be for gaming so it's not like they'll be stressing all 6 cores anyway

[broken lake]

You can use it, it might just not turn on

Or might not be in one piece after

[rotund zealot]

There's official support for it tho

Just very old like he said

[unborn mesa]

@rotund zealot are you running 16 fans??

[rotund zealot]

No 15

I added that noctua for fun lol

[unborn mesa]

I would very much like to see ur pc

[unborn mesa]

Push pull rad?

[rotund zealot]

Yes

[unborn mesa]

That is clean build

What case is that if you don’t mind me asking

[fossil cedar]

Looks like a 7000d airflow

[unborn mesa]

I like it might have to get one

Im assuming it has a glass side panel

Nvm seems a bit out of my price range

[fossil cedar]

Yeah, it's just a bigger 4000d/5000d airflow

[rotund zealot]

5000x airflow

[fossil cedar]

Oh looked bigger than the 5000d

[rotund zealot]

I want the 7000x

[rotund zealot]

Might be because I have triple 140s in the front

[fossil cedar]

Nah it was the fans on the bottom i think

Is there even fan mounts for those and why lol

[rotund zealot]

Well

I don't have led strips

So this is the second best thinf

[rotund zealot]

No

[unborn mesa]

Theyre just on the grille??

[fossil cedar]

Lol they're so pointless +leds would have been cheaper

[rotund zealot]

I had these laying around

[unborn mesa]

Regardless they look good

Pato what could help me cool my cpu in this case

[fossil cedar]

A better cpu cooler

You have a 5700g right?

[unborn mesa]

Yea i ordered this one

Ak620

From deepcool

[fossil cedar]

That will help massively

[unborn mesa]

I should be getting it today

[fossil cedar]

Nice

[unborn mesa]

Has something to do with that aio tbh

I had a red devil 6900 and it was staying cool with just fans where that radiator is

And now my cpu hits 85c on warzone

[fossil cedar]

Well the fans on the aio aren't spinning

[unborn mesa]

That was on idle

[fossil cedar]

Right

[unborn mesa]

Also those fans are also intakes now which helped my temp lower like 3c

[fossil cedar]

Oh right yeah

[unborn mesa]

Yea i know a different case would help alot more but cant really afford one atm

@rotund zealot this case? Corsair iCUE 5000X RGB Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX PC Smart Case - White https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08M4BN431/ref=cm_sw_r_awdo_2VJMY01FA59VDADMWN0C?psc=1

[rotund zealot]

Yes but in black

[fossil cedar]

Just get the 5000d airflow, they're calling there's 5000x airflow because they put the airflow panel on the 5000x but there's no point doing that because only difference is the x comes with a front glass panel and 3 corsair rgb fans

But you already have plenty of fans

[unborn mesa]

Need new fans than these offbrand ones

[fossil cedar]

Grab some p12's then

[unborn mesa]

Theyre like 30 bucks for argb

[frigid night]

Yeh expensive.

[fossil cedar]

They're like 15 for rgb?

[frigid night]

I went the antec route. Same specs just not as quiet.

[unborn mesa]

Yea those were 30 bucks for 6 argb

[unborn mesa]

The antec p12?

[frigid night]

Prize X

Prizm* X

[fossil cedar]

Arctic is p12

[unborn mesa]

Antec made their own branding of them

Theyve had some bad reviews tho

16 dollars for a single argb fan

Those p12 fans are great tho

[frigid night]

Prizm x are 14 per fan in a 5 pack and comes with a controller

My temps have stayed the same switching from my arctic p12s to the prizm xs

They just run a bit louder

[unborn mesa]

Would you mind sending link?

[frigid night]

https://www.amazon.com/Antec-Prizm-5v-3pin-Packs-Controller/dp/B0998LP1S7/ref=asc_df_B0998LP1S7/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=583518774644&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=1266420857128906052&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9029519&hvtargid=pla-1650855431669&psc=1

[unborn mesa]

@fossil cedar is the 4000d good?

[frigid night]

Yes

I have a 4000d

Airflow

But you'll probably want a 5000d with your setup

[unborn mesa]

Why?

[frigid night]

Because you have a lot of stuff

Lol

[unborn mesa]

Not really?

[frigid night]

That won't all fit into the 4000d

[unborn mesa]

Just 4 fans connecter to controller

The radiator?

Could fit my radiator in front and a cpu aio up top

Fits a 240-280mm

[frigid night]

Radiator will fit in front, but you'll only get 2 fans on top. You won't be able to do a push/pull configuration with rad if you wanted to and tbh I wish I had gotten the 5000d

[unborn mesa]

Then another exhaust in the back

[unborn mesa]

Probably wouldnt do a push pull tbh

[frigid night]

Gotcha. I still recommend the 5000

[unborn mesa]

But thats just me since i dont know much about aios

54 dollars difference

[frigid night]

Yeah. Can hang around woot!

It goes on sale on there a lot

[unborn mesa]

Never heard of it

[frigid night]

Its an Amazon thing

[unborn mesa]

I looked it up

I mean im also not really trying to spend another 150 on a case tbh

15 dollars off on amazon atm

130 newegg

I needa start using newegg tbh

[frigid night]

Newegg and Amazon are usually the only places I get my parts as they are the cheapest.

[unborn mesa]

Yea i got my parts at microcenter

Wasnt too bad tbh

[frigid night]

Ah I don't have one anywhere near me

[unborn mesa]

Gpu for around msrp

Heres the very huge thing i could do

Return my sapphire 6900xt get the red devil 6900xt for msrp and use the extra 200 to help improve my cooling in my pc

But i like the rgb on this gpu alot more

[frigid night]

I think the red devil is the best 6900xt

[unborn mesa]

It is tbh

I never should traded it tbh

[frigid night]

But the sapphire nitro is a close 2nd I think

[unborn mesa]

All i did was pay more for an aio

I have the sapphire toxic limited edition one

[frigid night]

Ah

[unborn mesa]

So its up by it but i think the red devil ultimate wouldve been fine but it is also a thicker card

[frigid night]

If you can get the red devil and keep 200 for the cooling in your pc, id say thats a good deal all around.

[unborn mesa]

I most likely could

But ive already traded like 4 gpus at microcenter

[frigid night]

Lol

[unborn mesa]

But this one definitely wasnt worth the extra money

All it did was mess with my cpu temps to keep the gpu temps lower

[frigid night]

They probably see you walk in with a box and think "here we go again" haha

[unborn mesa]

Lmao fr

I might just goto a 6800xt tbh

The red devil ofc

With a decent overclock it’s basically the 6900xt

Itll give me like 300-380 for cooling

[frigid night]

Ah

[unborn mesa]

Or do the swap to a 3080ti

[frigid night]

The sapphire nitro+ 6900xt is what I'm looking at.

Or a 3080ti, but idk what brand i want.

[unborn mesa]

How much in ur currency

I cant do an even trade for a 3080 ti 😅

Oh wait i could do a 3080ti vision for like 20 dollars more

[frigid night]

1250 for the sapphire nitro

[unborn mesa]

What currency

[frigid night]

Usd

[unborn mesa]

Oh same currency 😂

[frigid night]

Yeah lol

[unborn mesa]

6900 xt at my micro center

Essentially msrp

[frigid night]

Dang

I can't even order from the.

Them

[unborn mesa]

I would get it and ship it to you but i cant buy for another month 😂

Gon have to text my ex and get her to buy it

[frigid night]

There is a buy limit?

[unborn mesa]

Waterblock for 6900 xt is 180 usd

[unborn mesa]

Yea gpus is one per person a month

Cpu is like 2 or 3

I dont know exactly

[frigid night]

Oh

[unborn mesa]

If you do full builds it bypasses the limit tho

But you cant do a dual gpu build

I guess you could buy all the parts then return what you dont want

[frigid night]

Eh, the closest one to me is 3 states away.

[strong raft]

relieved wallet

[unborn mesa]

You can theres a couple ways to bypass it

The dudes that work there will literally help you bypass it

[frigid night]

Help them bypass the fact that they won't ship to me :P

[strong raft]

Yep, pockets fit more money w/o a wallet in thete taking up space

[unborn mesa]

Lowkey

[fossil cedar]

4000d airflow is good

[rotund zealot]

Non airflow is a big meh tho

[unborn mesa]

I dont like going while clean shaved tho look like a 14 yr old and when i pull out bunch of 100s to pay i get weird looks

[fossil cedar]

Push pull has like a 1-2c effect anyway

[rotund zealot]

With the 5000 its diffrebt tho because of the side intake

[frigid night]

I know, but aesthetics if you wanted rgb on both sides.

[unborn mesa]

Yea i read its kinds pointless since you dont get a big difference but you do get a louder pc

[frigid night]

Plus.. rgb=moar performance.

[strong raft]

More fans = more noise generally. So much for aio being outright quieter than a heatsink, haha

[frigid night]

Yeah I can't wait for my pc to sound like an airplane.

[unborn mesa]

I got the ak620 fan which i hope helps it cool so i dont have to case swap

[frigid night]

Luckily my AC fan and box fan are already loud. Plus I love fan noise tbh

[unborn mesa]

My rooms too quiet for me to start letting fans be loud

[frigid night]

Get a loud box fan. That way you're pc fans can be louder and you won't notice.

[unborn mesa]

Nah my pc right next to me

Sent you picture of where it is

[rotund zealot]

It comes with dual glass side panels and it just looks better imo

[fossil cedar]

Wdym dual glass panels? Like front and side panel? But side panel is glass in the regular 5000d

[rotund zealot]

You have 2 side panels on a case

[fossil cedar]

Oh the back one is glass?

[rotund zealot]

Yes

[fossil cedar]

Why would you want to show off your cable mess

[rotund zealot]

You dont

You have a cover for that

Glass just looks cleaner then the metal

[unborn mesa]

It has like a hidden panel for the cables dont you?

The keyboard looks dope asf ngl

[fossil cedar]

600$ for a 6600xt 💀

[unborn mesa]

Yeaa only issue

But the keyboard is what got my attention

[frigid night]

I'll stick to my z15

I love it

[unborn mesa]

I like building my own keyboards or buying the build and modding them a but

Bi

[frigid night]

Although I almost wish I had gotten the browns

But I really like the silvers

Both speed switches, but the silvers seem to actuate just a hair quicker.

[unborn mesa]

About

Ive built a couple and sold a couple too

Dont know much just fell into a mf rabbit hole

[frigid night]

The mech kb rabbit hole is one I'm going to stay out of.

I'm already in the building my own coils and mixing my own ejuice rabbit holes

And now the pc rabbit hole

[unborn mesa]

Lmao

[frigid night]

Finally got away from the Magic: The Gathering

[unborn mesa]

Stay away from car rabbit holes

[frigid night]

Yeah. I drive my lambofeeties

[unborn mesa]

Yessir

Might buy it tbh i like it

White clicky or brown tactile @frigid night

[mossy venture]

I used to play that so much

My dads got an original mox diamond, and a ton of other super cool cards

[frigid night]

Idk about white clicky. Are you talking about the z15?

Or are you asking me what I like?

[unborn mesa]

Powercolor kb

Has those two options

[frigid night]

Ah

[unborn mesa]

I dont know which to pick

Regardless switches are probably gonna get swapped

[frigid night]

I only have experience with the Kaihl browns so id say those ones :P

Idk about the whites.

[unborn mesa]

Doubt theyre kaihl browns tbh

[stoic island]

Is it hotswap?

[frigid night]

If you get it and swap out the browns... id take em.

[frigid night]

They are

[unborn mesa]

I always swap them but i always keep them dw

I have about 300+ gateron red switches

[frigid night]

I mean I'd buy em

Thats a lot of switches

Seems like it anyways

[stoic island]

Having 300 gat reds just seems annoying

It's not really something you want to put into a new board so it may never see use again

[unborn mesa]

I have a kb with those switches in them so if they go out i have spares

It is annoying tho

[unborn mesa]

Yea i gotchu

67 switches

Such an uneven number

[stoic island]

65% board things

[unborn mesa]

Yea

Its cool but ehh

I found a kb with stainless steel keycaps

200 usd tho so thats a no

[frigid night]

I couldn't use anything less than a 100%

[unborn mesa]

Im on a minitkl atm

[frigid night]

I use that numpad a lot.

[unborn mesa]

Makes sense

I used to

[frigid night]

Works great for extra keybinds on my mmo mouse too

[unborn mesa]

Ah i got a ton of keys i dont use

Also dont use macros either tbh

Im trying to get a logitech pro x kb

But they been out of stock for a minute

https://www.logitechg.com/en-us/products/gaming-keyboards/pro-x-gaming-keyboard.920-009230.html

[analog hearth]

yo Logitech making a keeb with hot swappable switches?

[unborn mesa]

Yea only that one tho

Its in stock rn i guess

[analog hearth]

looks kinda bulky though

[unborn mesa]

Check out the Nzxt function

Its also hot swappable

Has a mini tkl, tkl, and full size

[analog hearth]

mini TKL?

[unborn mesa]

A tkl in the size of a 65% kb

Somewhat

Ill send you link on amazon

[analog hearth]

oh yeah I’ve seen the NZXT keeb

actually doesn’t look too bad for a main brand keyboard

[unborn mesa]

Nah i bought it

Its decent

I like the volume wheel

Dont get the white top plate

Looks terrible imo

[analog hearth]

i’d imagine it would look fine with white keycaps

[unborn mesa]

Yea but to get white keycaps with the exact words

Because it has a couple extra keys

It looks good tho just the white plate looks cheap i guess

[analog hearth]

what material is the case?

[unborn mesa]

The top plate is aluminum and the bottom case is plastic

Its my main kb atm since i have no others that are tkl

[analog hearth]

I mean I guess the plate is metal lol

[unborn mesa]

Yea its not a bad kb

Just the white color looks cheap

Good contrast on it tho

[unborn mesa]

Yea that sucked

[frigid night]

I would totally use that display as my aida 64 hw monitor.

With all my temps/loads and whatnot.

[unborn mesa]

Get a 12 inch screen thats meant for a raspberry pi

Yeah, I'm in the process of doing so. I'm currently using an old s7 in it's place.

Could use this for ur temps

Mount inside pc somewhere

Or just use double sided tape and mount on ur front of pc

[frigid night]

Oh I have a whole setup of what I want in my "save for later cart" on amazon.

[unborn mesa]

For what project?

[frigid night]

Several :D

I recently built myself a stand for my tower.

[mossy venture]

You end up finding a new gpu btw?

Saw what you said you spent on your pc and was curious

[frigid night]

Not yet. That's just total what I've spent without gpu. I'm still waiting for the IRS to decide that they've taken enough time to verify my identity.

[mossy venture]

Ahh

You sure you're you?

[frigid night]

I don't even know anymore at this point.

Why it takes 190 days to just call my employer to verify idk.

[unborn mesa]

@frigid night imposter

Impostor ?

[mossy venture]

Time to go into debt for a gpu

[unborn mesa]

One if those two

[frigid night]

It might be a good thing though with the new series drops..

[mossy venture]

Lol

[frigid night]

Emergency meeting!

[unborn mesa]

Ayo not that far

[mossy venture]

At this point I'd just wait for the panic sell before drop or for release if I was buying

[mossy venture]

I saw pato vent

His names red too

Wait guys

The mods are sus

Red names

[unborn mesa]

Ayo too far

What do yall do at work to stay distracted and not bored

[frigid night]

Discord.

[frank delta]

Yea the panic sells are going to be insane

[frigid night]

:D

[frigid night]

What yall mean by panic sell?

[frank delta]

Like what happened with 30 series release when you could get a 2080ti for $500

[unborn mesa]

Already being done

[frigid night]

I play rs3 mobile

[unborn mesa]

Im hiding on my forklift

[mossy venture]

I'm at school lol

I barely use my phone at work, bosses around too much

[frank delta]

I’m a glorified electrician for jets in the Air Force and I go take a nicotine break to avoid work

[frigid night]

You in college?

[unborn mesa]

I would be but i couldnt graduate so i dropped out

[mossy venture]

I'm a cashier, not like im too worried about getting fired

What will I do, find another minimum wage job?

Never

[unborn mesa]

Lmao

[mossy venture]

High school still

[frank delta]

You probably still get paid either more than me or just as much as I do

[frigid night]

How old are you?

[mossy venture]

$13 an hour

[mossy venture]

16

[frank delta]

Yea that’s about the same I’m on salary but I make about $800-900 a paycheck if varies a lot

[mossy venture]

Ah

Min wage will be 14 in October this year

[unborn mesa]

About same as if i work my normal schedule

And then the year after it'll go up to 15

But hopefully by then I won't need a min wage job, I want to become an emt and do that while I'm going through college

[unborn mesa]

Minimum wage in my state is 9.30

[frank delta]

Yea I have to wait another year and a half to get like a $100 increase but then they’ll kick me out of the dorms and give me money to get an apartment

[mossy venture]

What do you do?

[frank delta]

B-1 mechanic in the Air Force

[mossy venture]

Oh right lmao

Just said that

[frank delta]

lmao

if only you guys knew these jets are held together by duct tape and zip ties

[unborn mesa]

“Military grade”

[frank delta]

Exactly

[unborn mesa]

Cheapest product that works

[frank delta]

A pilot was once complaining that said light was coming on signaling a fault and a dude kicked a generator and it started to work again

Pilot was like “dude how’d you get it working so fast?” Mechanic: “ don’t worry about it”

[unborn mesa]

Sounds about right

[frank delta]

The rest of my parts come in this week and the case is the last thing that’s coming in might do a ghetto test bench until it comes in😂

[unborn mesa]

Ngl i would

If this cpu cooler im getting today dont bring my temps down

Imma end up with a wall build

Should i return my sapphire 6900xt toxic and get the red devil instead?

And use the money from it towards storage or something?

[frank delta]

I actually think that’s a good idea

I’m not to well versed with amd cards anymore but the red devil supposed to be like the best one correct me I’m wrong but yea I would do that

[unborn mesa]

I had it at first

But i switches to the sapphire with an aio

But its messing with my cou temps

But my gpu temps is low

[mossy venture]

If you're fine with going through the hassle

[unborn mesa]

Havent seen it go above 60c

[mossy venture]

And if it's cheaper

[unborn mesa]

The red devil is at msrp

I got the sapphire for like 1300

Give me about 200-280 to use for cooling or storage or something else

[frank delta]

Oh hell yea get the red devil then get like another 1tb - 2tb storage

[unborn mesa]

Im very indecisive btw so doesnt help to have options

[frank delta]

Depending on what you need what’s the build as of now?

[mossy venture]

If you're spending $200 on 1tb of storage, you're doing something wrong lol

[frank delta]

I’m not saying blow all of it on 1tb😂

[unborn mesa]

Lmao not even tryna spend 200 on 2 tb of storage

Lemme do 150 on 2 tb and ill still try to give you 130 at most

Rn im running a 500gb boot drive and a external 2 tb hdd

From my ole laptop

[broken lake]

Yea but I’m saying you could do it with modern parts. It just won’t work

[unborn mesa]

Basically finished just needs some small tweaks

[mossy venture]

You have an empty nvme slot?

[unborn mesa]

Yea

Dont absolutely need storage atm

But its an option

[mossy venture]

Mp33, 970 evo, p5 are my go tos

There's some xp something or others on sale rn

But I've no clue on the names

[unborn mesa]

Im fine with my hdd atm since all my games are multiplayer

Well all the games on there at multiplayer

Its cool might focus on cooling more than storage atm

[frank delta]

Oh then yea get a 2tb nvme then maybe some be quiet fans

Or if you don’t have one get an aio for cpu

[unborn mesa]

Might fill my case with arctic p12 fans

My cpu dont really need an aio just needs a better fan

[still roost]

Luushun#7882 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[frank delta]

🙄

[broken lake]

Stinky word

[frank delta]

I said the r word oh no

[unborn mesa]

What word tho

[broken lake]

I hate swear filters

[unborn mesa]

Dm me it

[broken lake]

It filtered my name

[unborn mesa]

I was in a server where i couldnt say “hacking”

Lmao

[broken lake]

Bruh

[unborn mesa]

Its dumb

How many warnings to get kicked

@frank delta so swap gpu to red devil and get more storage or something

[earnest olive]

back in the socket 7 days they were actually pin compatible

[mossy venture]

What cpu?

[unborn mesa]

5700g

[mossy venture]

5700g... paired with a 6900xt

[unborn mesa]

Yea yea ignore it

[mossy venture]

You should sell it and get a 5700x...

[unborn mesa]

Nobody buying

[mossy venture]

Maybe not for your list price

[unborn mesa]

And i would just go up to a ryzen 9

Its like 360 for a 5900x

Which would most likely need an aio

[mossy venture]

Not really

Ak620 enough without ocing

[unborn mesa]

I got the ak620

You recommended to get it for my 5700g

[mossy venture]

I said for a 5900x

You said "I should get a 5900x"

And smthn about an aio

[unborn mesa]

Nah you said for 5700g because i asked what a good fan would be

[mossy venture]

I said an ak620 would be good

[unborn mesa]

It was yesterday when i asked

I also ordered yesterday

Either you or pato said to get that to help cool my cpu

Regardless cpu most likely wont sell

[mossy venture]

Anything will still

[unborn mesa]

Could try to sell for 100

[mossy venture]

You'd atleast get 5600g msrp for it

[unborn mesa]

Its been used since about march

If i do sell im getting the 5900x

369 usd

[broken lake]

Wait so if I were to buy a 3090

Is there any reason to not buy the founders edition?

[unborn mesa]

Did you put badname or did the server did that

[broken lake]

Server

[unborn mesa]

I mean i would imo founders edition looks alot better than others

[unborn mesa]

Thats fun

[broken lake]

I like how founders edition looks

[mossy venture]

Cooling diff

What's available

[broken lake]

But I said yesterday that I wanted to buy a founders edition 3080 and somebody said there was a better one

[unborn mesa]

Yea i like the radeon fe also but i cant get it from microcenter so

[mossy venture]

Wouldn't recc a 3090 though

6900xt cheaper and same perf

[unborn mesa]

3090 not worth it rn

[mossy venture]

3080 12gb $1k and similar gaming perf

[mossy venture]

Never was

[unborn mesa]

Finally someone admits it

[broken lake]

I’m getting a lot of money for graduation and wanna go overkill

Price isn’t an issue

[mossy venture]

Then get a 6900xt

Or 3080 12gb

[unborn mesa]

Overkill is useless

Save money and buy into next gen

[broken lake]

Overkill is good for a flex lol

[mossy venture]

How much is a lot of money

[unborn mesa]

My setup is a good flex

[broken lake]

12 grand

[mossy venture]

Ah

[unborn mesa]

But my cpu makes my pc booty

[broken lake]

Unfortunate

[unborn mesa]

Just cuz of igpu according to half this server

[mossy venture]

I'd do 12700k 6900xt and save the rest for other stuff

[unborn mesa]

Its still a good cpu

[mossy venture]

Buy some monitors, nice mic and stuff

[broken lake]

Why don’t you get a new cpu then?

I have all my peripherals already

[mossy venture]

5700g is worse than a 5600x

[unborn mesa]

Me and bacca were ralking abiht tht
