dense palm
#

yeah same one I think

mossy venture
#

yeah

fossil cedar
#

@dense palm whats your budget and use case?

mossy venture
#

it was what, 1.1k?

#

and preferably lower?

dense palm
#

well up to 1.3~1.5k is fine

#

but yeah not trying to build anything super powerful

fossil cedar
#

1.3k will get you a very nice pc

#

1.5k an even very nicerer pc

#

You need wifi?

dense palm
fossil cedar
#

And have any asthetic preferences?

dense palm
#

its what I have so far

mossy venture
#

didnt i make you a parts list?

dense palm
#

yep

#

but I took off the psu

#

since it was 750w

mossy venture
#

psus are more than wattage

#

which one were you going to buy

dense palm
#

the one you put

#

antec earthwatt I think

mossy venture
#

didnt i put the earthwatts...?

#

yeah

#

thats an A tier psu

fossil cedar
#

@dense palm you need wifi? And i guess you're going for as much rgb as possible?

mossy venture
#

prolly just do mp33 as well instead of p31

mossy venture
#

and i think they like the look of the aio

dense palm
#

well less rgb

fossil cedar
#

Okay sure

dense palm
#

just ok with the rams and the liquid cooler rgb

mossy venture
#

less rgb will get you better perf

dense palm
#

i like my useless shiny rbg though

#

also using the arctic p12 fans for the bottom air and back airflow

fossil cedar
dense palm
#

I guess this is more like it?

mossy venture
#

oh wait, one more change

#

wait nvm forgot p360a is on sale

fossil cedar
mossy venture
dense palm
fossil cedar
#

Yes

#

Also the p12 isn't needed

#

The aio and included case fans will cover enough, you don't need to fill every fan slot

dense palm
#

just back fan then

mossy venture
#

and the price on the 3070 is nice

dense palm
#

not sure if I will need 3070 for games I play

#

I dont play any fps or high demand stuff

mossy venture
#

fits in for not much more than the 6600xt build tho

#

your choice

fossil cedar
#

Might as well go 6700xt, it's only 100$ more than 6600xt and it's a good bit better, like 25% or so

#

Will future proof you anyway

mossy venture
#

fair point

unborn mesa
#

Guys my refund got approved just now

mossy venture
#

thats a great price on the ssd

mossy venture
fossil cedar
fossil cedar
dense palm
#

I see

unborn mesa
#

Hopefully lmao

mossy venture
#

like the 3080 12gb for $830 a little while ago

fossil cedar
#

Lol

#

Same

mossy venture
#

spending that much on a gpu when ill get back maybe $550 is not gonna go over well

fossil cedar
#

Yep

dense palm
#

Well looks good

#

maybe I will just keep the rgb rams then

mossy venture
#

can always get rgb strips if you want rgb

little osprey
#

im about to build and i bought an i5-11400F, but im thinking of selling it and upgrading to something better, I bought it at a deal so I'd make a bit of profit if I could sell it a little higher than I bought it at, should I?

fossil cedar
#

Ohh right forgot about rgb ram

mossy venture
#

whats your budget for the build as well

little osprey
#

$100

mossy venture
#

thats not bad at all

little osprey
#

yeah

dense palm
#

same but the rgb ram

fossil cedar
#

Ohh you bought it for 100 that's nice

mossy venture
#

could sell it for 140 or so, or could use it. Not like its a bad cpu anyways

#

whats your overall budget?

fossil cedar
dense palm
#

Thanks for input

#

and help

little osprey
#

yeah, my overall budget is 1.2k ig

fossil cedar
#

Np

dense palm
#

now time for my payroll to melt

little osprey
#

1k but im okay if i gotta go 200 over

mossy venture
#

so ill let him

dense palm
#

so I guess mobo/gpu/case from newegg

fossil cedar
#

Gotcha let me do you a list, you in the US?

dense palm
#

and everything else from amazon

fossil cedar
#

Lol your lists are getting pretty good bacca

mossy venture
#

for about 1k with the 11400 you could get a 3060 ti build id imagine

little osprey
#

i have a lot of the stuff already

mossy venture
#

for the most part im confident with them

dense palm
#

2 weeks for cpu though

little osprey
#

i just need a mobo, graphics card, and case

mossy venture
#

but since youre here ill leave it to you

dense palm
#

a sitting computer that can't run

mossy venture
dense palm
snow obsidian
#

im missing extra storage, gpu and cpu

#

oh and case

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

11400 isnt the worse to pair with a 3080, wont see a huge diff unless comparing to 5800x3d or similar

#

though your psu matters

little osprey
#

yeah well I actually bought a prime b560m-a but it arrived damaged so i got a refund, so now I just have a free broken mobo lol

mossy venture
#

might need to replace psu

little osprey
#

I have an evga supernova G6 750w gold plus

dense palm
#

I really appreciate both your help and require more once my stuff comes

mossy venture
#

oh nice

#

g6 is a tier i believe

dense palm
mossy venture
fossil cedar
#

Cool thanks

mossy venture
#

whos mo pato

#

are you cheating on rawr again

fossil cedar
#

\o/

little osprey
#

i'm not entirely sure what cooler I have, its just the stock cooler, should I get better?

mossy venture
#

eh, can if youd like but with a decent case you don't need to

dense palm
#

well if I am going to spend about that much

#

is it worth the jump to 3060 ti?

#

or 6700 xt enough

mossy venture
#

6700xt=3060 ti

dense palm
#

oh kk

mossy venture
#

sometimes a bit better

jagged ember
#

missing nvidia broadcast tools

mossy venture
#

personally i prefer nvidia, mainly for ocing reasons though, so if you don't plan to benchmark with overclocking or need video encoding there's not much a difference

jagged ember
#

also missing nvenc encoder

mossy venture
#

fsr 2.0 will be out soon, which will make up for lacking dlss

jagged ember
#

but yeah otherwise it's not that different

dense palm
#

Yeah I won't be overclocking

mossy venture
#

and not recording/streaming?

dense palm
#

prob not much

mossy venture
#

yea, then 6700xt better choice

dense palm
#

i have no friends

mossy venture
#

not worth $100 extra for nothing youll use

mossy venture
snow obsidian
#

someone once told me what overclocking was

#

but

#

my adhd made me forget

#

what it does

dense palm
#

Its like

snow obsidian
#

somethign about exerting more power

dense palm
#

making your stuff run faster/better

snow obsidian
#

to make it faster

dense palm
#

at the cost of its life

snow obsidian
#

ye

mossy venture
#

basically making your stuff run at higher clock speeds

#

getting higher performance

#

for a lot of people it's not important, cpu ocing isnt super important anymore and doesn't give much extra performance unless you're bencharmking

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

ram ocing is difficult and annoying, so for most people not worth it

snow obsidian
mossy venture
#

gpu overclocking is fairly easy

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

and will result in the biggest difference in performance

dense palm
#

are there any underbolting that is set on the 6700xt?

little osprey
mossy venture
#

but for the most part, overclocking is done for bencharmking

dense palm
#

or any fan settings I need to change?

fossil cedar
mossy venture
jagged ember
mossy venture
#

or the ssd?

mossy venture
#

i wouldn't buy either of those

little osprey
dense palm
#

Is it recommended to undervolt?

mossy venture
#

ram is overpriced, corsair makes bad ram

#

ssd is overpriced, good ssd just not a good price

#

p31 is better and $110

little osprey
#

oh rly?

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

i didnt even see the psu price

little osprey
#

well i got the psu half off

dense palm
#

I guess I will buy extra ssd if I need any

mossy venture
#

jesus

dense palm
#

the Sata

mossy venture
#

its a great psu, just not worth for $140. If it cost $70-80, its fine

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

ram and ssd still sad though

little osprey
#

whats a good brand for ram?

mossy venture
#

personally id get 32gb now

#

a 32gb 3200c16 kit is $105

#

3600c18<3200c16

little osprey
#

I could probably still return the ssd but Im pretty sure I got it for about 110

fossil cedar
jagged ember
#

gskill ram is generally good

mossy venture
#

gtg

dense palm
#

o/

fossil cedar
little osprey
#

ah ok

fossil cedar
#

Can you return the ram?

little osprey
#

well what ram should I get?

fossil cedar
#

I'll put it in the list

little osprey
#

the ram hasnt arrived yet, i ordered it the other day

#

im not sure if ill be able to return it, probably though

mossy venture
#

You can cancel the order

fossil cedar
#

Do you need wifi?

mossy venture
#

Hopefully anyways

little osprey
#

wifi is prefered, not necessarily needed tho

fossil cedar
#

Okay

little osprey
#

theres a brand new i7-12700K auction about to end on ebay, its at a good price rn, should I try to get it then sell my 11400F?

fossil cedar
#

What price?

#

And eh for 1.2k 12700k isn't really an option

jagged ember
#

12400 is plenty already

little osprey
#

below 300 rn, only a few mins left,

mossy venture
#

Seems too low honestly

#

Kinda sus

jagged ember
#

sus

little osprey
#

well its an auction

#

so prolly gonna go up in the last 5 mins

mossy venture
#

What's it at rn?

fossil cedar
little osprey
#

got 40 watchers so yeah people are gonna start bidding crazy

mossy venture
#

If like 275 might be worth

little osprey
#

282 rn

mossy venture
#

Eh

#

I dont see it going for less than 325 with that many watchers

little osprey
#

alright well I'll just pass on it then

#

yeah same

mossy venture
#

Imo I'd either sell the 11400 and grab a 12400, or just stick with the 11400

#

Not like the 11400 is a bad cpu

little osprey
#

ah ok

dense palm
#

So how would it feel to have a comp without a cpu for 2 weeks

fossil cedar
#

@little osprey id do this, personally I'd go for 1 of the 32gb versions tho

@fossil cedar h18

#

For the case

#

Or the mb311l

#

Isn't the g the mx330 variant with good airflow?

snow obsidian
#

is it a dumb question to ask how a mobo without wifi works ? im sorry if its dumb but legit first time building a pc and idek anything about them

mossy venture
#

It has a wifi card built into it

snow obsidian
#

thanks

#

i make notes

mossy venture
#

From experience, as long as you're not argumentative or annoying, it's hard to ask a stupid question here

#

From someone who's asked a lot of questions I thought were stupid

snow obsidian
#

just tryna learn haha

mossy venture
#

Yeye

#

Thats why I originally joined

#

And I stayed to annoy pato as much as possible

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

What's wrong with it?

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

Oh

#

Thought it had a solid top

#

Can't look at it rn since discord will barely load, on the bus with bad connection

fossil cedar
fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

That wasn't phrased well

#

But I think you get the question

fossil cedar
frank delta
#

If you have a Wi-Fi adapter Wi-Fi will obviously work if not you have to use Ethernet unless your mobo has built in Wi-Fi

mossy venture
#

I currently use a pcie wifi card and a USB one

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

Since without the other they both suck

frank delta
#

I’ve used both and I prefer pcie cards

fossil cedar
#

I'd prefer built in

mossy venture
#

My mobo had a m.2 wifi card, but for some reason the guys who built my pc took it out in leui of the pcie one

frank delta
#

But my new setup im within arms reach of the router so I’m going to use Ethernet

mossy venture
#

Instead of leaving them both in

fossil cedar
frank delta
mossy venture
#

It has an m.2 slot with a wifi card already in it

#

Had*

#

I love bad connection

fossil cedar
#

Yup

#

Great

snow obsidian
fossil cedar
snow obsidian
#
#

idk

#

idk what im looking for

#

or do i buy the gigabyte one

frank stirrup
#

i dont ask many questions tho

little osprey
#

my g.skill ram won't change color no matter what

#

like i tried the g.skill app and open rgb and even my mobo app

#

its not working

boreal compass
fossil cedar
snow obsidian
#

das ok

#

just curious is alls

fossil cedar
#

Yeah someone else here could probably answer but ye

fossil cedar
#

Doesn't really interest me as long as it works lol also complicated

dense palm
#

was looking through newegg for stff

#

how is this psu

mossy venture
#

for a non a tier psu, anyways

dense palm
#

kk

#

was just wondering since they having sale for build your own I guess

#

how are corsiar CX-M ones

mossy venture
#

bad

#

c tier

dense palm
#

worth a shot asking

#

ok guess will go with what you guys gave me then

#

:3

#

should I get warranty or skip it?

#

oof regular 12400 went up back to 200

#

time fore 12400f

potent portal
#

Extended warranties aren't usually worth it except on things that might wear out faster, like mice and monitors

#

As far as squaretrade, I've had nothing but good experiences with them. There was one time they lost my info but I showed my receipt with the warranty and they replaced my item.

dense palm
#

looks like only newegg has it

#

not amazon

#

at least I will be buying mobo and gpu from newegg

dense palm
potent portal
#

On the CPU? No

sharp temple
#

I wonder how hard it would be to mount a TV over this

potent portal
#

You could attach an arm to the wall

#

Or hang it from the ceiling

dense palm
#

so can skip for cpu gpu and most stuff huh

#

got it

#

there isn't a difference between the 6700xt gigabyte vs msi one right?

potent portal
#

Not a practical difference

dense palm
#

so about 1400ish after tax

#

not too bad

nova apex
#

can someone help me with a build? my budget is 710 and i already have a 1660 super. i plan on just using it for gaming. (SoT, Gta, etc)

i have a ethernet cable so i don’t need wi-fi.

USD

hoping to purchase by july

dense palm
#

well I can ask you a few questions before the experts show up

#

RAM
SSD/HDD

nova apex
#

haha sure, it’ll be a tad late responding, working rn haha

stoic island
#

Sounds like time for a 12400 build

dense palm
#

well someone got here

nova apex
#

any ram u think is best. ssd prefer

stoic island
dense palm
#

my job here is done

stoic island
#

Cooler prob overkill, forgot what cheap coolers have 1700 mount now

#

Case could be changed, PSU could be changed

dense palm
#

so this is p much the default 12400 build?

#

12400f

strong raft
#

12400 non-F is same price recently so double check. Pepe_cheers

dense palm
#

price went up again at amazon and newegg

#

for 12400 non-f

stoic island
#

Ye

dense palm
#

rip should have bought it

#

oh well at least I can still use the 12400f

stoic island
#

Since they already have 1660 super, I'd save the 30$ for now

strong raft
#

Yea if $30 & have that gtx of course get the F. FedoraTip (wish they always used a different letter for no-igpu cpus but ohwell)

dense palm
#

does this help

little osprey
#

💀

strong raft
dense palm
#

for $20

#

you can build a $50,000 pc

restive halo
#

Best budget PSU to pair with a 5950x and 3080

Thank you

#

AMD Threadripper-3970X thoughts?

#

No budget pc

mossy venture
opal olive
mossy venture
#

no sh* sherlock

#

what are you using the pc for

opal olive
#

High end gaming and editing

#

Also rendering alot

mossy venture
#

then youll want a 12900k or 5950x

opal olive
#

Kk

potent portal
#

Gaming on threadripper cursed1

mossy venture
#

are you rich or a company buying the pc or smthn?

mossy venture
opal olive
#

Just buying it for a pc

#

Not selling

mossy venture
#

then are you rich or smthn?

#

and dont have a budget at all?

opal olive
mossy venture
opal olive
#

$11k

#

So whats the best cpu for a high end gaming and extreme rendering?

mossy venture
#

ill make a list

opal olive
#

k thx

#

Like dont hold back too pls

mossy venture
#

theres 100% better price/perf, but i dont make lists for that type of budget

opal olive
#

Gonna look into the motherboard rq

#

I like it but could u maybe find a better motherboard maybe feels a bit limited rn as if I wanted to add more to it

potent portal
#

I'd do 12900k over 5950X

#

More "future proof" with PCIe 5.0 and USB 4.0

mossy venture
#

idk for that high of a budget

#

was more so giving a general idea than suggesting it outright

#

ssd is prolly stupid too

unborn mesa
#

Dang gpu is half the budget

potent portal
#

It often is though

unborn mesa
#

Ngl wouldve spent that to get 3090 over 6900xt

#

Mines about exactly half

potent portal
# opal olive Like dont hold back too pls

This is the highest performance I can justify parts for. If you need more memory you can get it but keep in mind it'll reduce performance the more you have past this point.

unborn mesa
#

@mossy venture slow bootup can be sped up by switching to an ssd right?

mossy venture
#

yes

potent portal
#

Usually

unborn mesa
#

Nvm laptop just shut off on me

#

Its not hot either

opal olive
unborn mesa
#

Is the disk drive supposed to be at 100%?

#

No, right?

mossy venture
#

its normal for boot

unborn mesa
#

Once its in windows?

mossy venture
#

yeah. its not good, just normal

#

when i had an hdd for boot it happened

unborn mesa
#

Yea cuz laptops being slow in general

#

Im guessing switching to an ssd should fix it

mossy venture
#

indeed

unborn mesa
#

@mossy venture does hdd slow down boot time or everything in general

mossy venture
#

everything in general

unborn mesa
#

Hm

potent portal
#

Boot especially since it needs to access lots of smaller files at once to get all the services going. HDDs aren't great at that.

unborn mesa
#

Laptop keeps turning off

potent portal
#

Probably a power issue of some kind if it's a sudden shutoff

mossy venture
#

hdd connection could be loose

#

more likely power tho

potent portal
#

If the battery is removable try running without it

unborn mesa
#

Okay

#

Batteries is fine

#

Its going into like sleep mode

#

Cause i boot it up and all the stuff i opened is there

unborn mesa
potent portal
#

Turn off auto sleep and hibernate then, in power settings

unborn mesa
#

Ill do it after i check hdd conection

unborn mesa
#

@mossy venture ngl having dome trouble opening this

mossy venture
#

there should be screws

#

thats all the advice i can give for laptops lol

unborn mesa
#

They all off

#

I doubt there is any under the rubber stands

potent portal
#

There's usually some plastic clips holding the case together. They design it so it's really hard to open without breaking off those clips.

#

Using a plastic spudger is the best way I've found

#

Or a guitar pick if you don't have a spudger

opal olive
#

Done

#

I just finished the no budget pc

#

$20,340.21

potent portal
#

That cooler is not nearly good enough for that processor

leaden plume
potent portal
#

It's literally the hottest consumer processor available right now

opal olive
#

LiMORE EXPENSIVE

potent portal
#

I'd highly recommend a custom loop if you're doing parts like those. The top 3090 ti will be gasping on the hot air from the bottom one.

opal olive
#

Kk thx

#

DIfferent fan btw

potent portal
#

The Lian Li Uni Fans are good for spending money. They look cool and chill the pc well too.

#

Oh and arctic silver 5 is not MX-5

get a 12900KS

potent portal

#

Nah, not in any negative way

boreal compass
#

I’ll probably do it Saturday than and do some testing

potent portal
#

Unless you had counter rotating fans, then it could be negatively impacting

#

But that's rare

boreal compass

I’m running a 5800x sits low 30s idle maybe it bring me to the high 20s

frank stirrup
#

my submission

mossy venture
#

Though the storage might be cheating

#

Im not sure if pcp was going by sata ports or not showing errors since external ports

#

Cpu also kinda cheating

how people gonna know you have gaming pc

I’m not sure if this is the right chat for this question. But I built a pc and my ram is stuck at 1866mhz even with xmp or manually overclocking it. I have 4x8 trident Z 3600mhz

Lol.

Are there any cases that have space for 18 fans?

frigid night

potent portal
#

Define good lol

frigid night
#

I'm currently using 4000D airflow

#

I just have 18 argb fans and feel like them sitting on a shelf is a waste

#

I guess good for thermals.

potent portal
#

Then no the P8 is not good for that. It's all tempered glass.

boreal compass
#

You can do a push pull on top 6 fans + 3 fans bottom + maybe push pull side if you have a dual rad set up not sure if it fits so that’s another 6 and 1 rear

#

How much does a custom loop typically cost on a budget?

potent portal
#

For a basic loop with just the cpu it's around $500 cheapest you can do, looping in the GPU is going to cost another $300 or more.

frigid night
#

Ah jeeze

#

That'll be a future project then

earnest olive

earnest olive
#

1866 is odd

#

try cpu-z, does it say 933 mhz memory?

half badger
#

I’ll try in a bit I’m just having a late dinner

#

It does say 931.1mhz

earnest olive
#

that is so weird

#

I have never seen a ddr4-1866 jedec bin in the wild

#

I mean I think I know why it's doing this

#

I just didn't know ddr4-1866 was actually produced lol

#

sounds like xmp is failing to boot so bios is reverting back to default

#

did you buy this kit as 4x8 or 2 separate kits of 2x8?

half badger
#

From what I could remember I bought it as 4x8

#

But I guess I could try doing 2stick and see if it changes anything right?

earnest olive
#

can try

#

what board and what cpu

fossil cedar
earnest olive
#

I just got in bed

half badger
#

B450m aorus and r7 1700x

earnest olive
#

I was gaming on my laptop today so I could do ram oc on my PC lol

#

oh yeah that explains everything

#

you're not gonna be able to run 3600 xmp on a 1700x

#

or even with manual tuning with 32gb

#

you're gonna have to attempt downclocking it

#

try 3200 at xmp timings first

#

then if that fails try 3000/2933

#

after that you can tighten timings manually if you wish

#

ryzen 1000 has an absolutely garbage memory controller

#

as far as I'm aware running 4 sticks at 3600 is impossible on 100% of ryzen 1000 samples

fossil cedar
earnest olive
#

or else what

#

you're going to set my ram to xmp?

fossil cedar
#

Ye

#

Actually worse

#

earnest olive
#

good luck

@earnest olive thanks for helping again, now I know why it was like that. Imma switch rams again

I'm going to replace your gaming chair with a plastic stool with no back

your ram is worth more than your cpu

#

ryzen 5 5600 is cheap, compatible with your mobo, and destroys your current cpu

#

and then you can sell it to offset the cost

yeah I usually just put $25 ram kits in flips and then oc them to something more respectable lol

but listen

YOU SLEEP IN THAT ROOM?!

it was really cheap

Are they "samsung b die"

#

no

#

they're an absolute nightmare IC

#

I cannot get the kit to run 3200 at any timings

however

#

3133 14-17-17 is 100% stable

for now

#

it's a 2x8gb dual rank kit lmao

#

IC is micron rev. b

fossil cedar
#

Sips i saw a corsair "samsung b die" 3200cl16 kit on ebay for like 250$ for 32gb before

earnest olive

but not the desirable 16gb micron rev. b

oh no

this is

That's some spektek ass

yeah 1.35

Lmao

#

I could understand like 1.25/1.3 maybe

nvm we both read the list wrong

#

it's not confirmed b-die just confirmed samsung

probably c-die

okay I need sleep

Any suggestions for a air cooler on a 12700k? Noctua and be quiet are the only like real tower coolers I can think of right now pepehmmm

cyan ravine
#

Ak620

#

Though you'd def be pushing it with a 12700K on air lol

flint sapphire
#

Yeah that’s why I’m looking for something more like a dark rock pro 4 or nhd15 or w.e noctua calls that sexy beast

Less potential issues usually prefer it

#

Gotcha.

#

If anyones curious I reminded myself that the scythe Fuma 2 exist and is a solid cooler WICKED

potent portal
#

Oh did scythe finally get a lga1700 bracket

fossil cedar
#

Fuma 2 is okay but not for the price anymore, iirc around 60$ but ak620 beats it by a long shot so

flint sapphire
#

Seriously 👀 didn’t expect that at all

cyan ravine
#

AK620 is pretty good

flint sapphire
#

The real question is… how good is the screwdriver pepehmmm

fossil cedar
#

And imo if you're paying ~100 for a cooler it better be an aio

flint sapphire
#

Little less moving parts on a air tower great for work station type situations easier to transport, $40 isn’t a massive leap in cost anyways kekw

fossil cedar
#

Yeah 45$ for worse noise normalised but 1c better max fans just not worth imo

flint sapphire
#

That’s true, I just don’t wanna get a call from my buddy later on saying his mobo died and he isn’t sure if his gpu is working. He’s gunna be doing lots of renders and a bit of ai work would rather a fan just die eventually and replace that kekw

glad robin

Guys if I want to sync all my rgb fans to msi mystic light would I need to get a splitter hub to connect all my fans to and then connect the hub cable to the rgb light controller pin on the motherboard???

# fossil cedar Keychain and notepads with the d15?

Yeah, if you buy a Noctua product you can get a goody bag
idk if there's a minimum purchase, but all you have to do is email them if you got a d15 and show proof of purchase
It's not worth $45 but I do use the keychain every day

But i ordered it just now

fossil cedar
#

Ayo small fan keychain

Not sure if it works with eBay, but worst case they say no

Yeah, it's literally just one of their fans without a motor 😆

I put my house keys on it for when I walk the dog

Probably a dud or something

Usually a 3 fan model will cool better, depends on the exact model

#

The two fan Asus Noctua 3070 is one of the best cooled air cooler 3070s for example

fossil cedar

Depends on the gpus lol

#

Eh the KO is just as good and significantly cheaper

Both of those coolers are good

KO is from it originally being made for the Korean market

am too lazy to make new list so I disappear now, try summon pato

my laptop is really not wanting to work with me rn, takes a solid 10 second to open anypage

ornate condor
#

Lol there was decent samples but I'm tazy to scroll up lol

#

Maybe you should pin some decent builds hmm

mossy venture
#

what was the budget?

#

@ornate condor $700 3070 ti vs $677 3070, which do you prefer

#

oh wait, 660 3070

pato whats the cooler you recc for a 12400?

Gammaxx 400/id cooling se 224xt/214xt/ vetroo v5

veetro v5, thats it thanks

Vetroo price recently has been meh

mossy venture
#

wait no it isnt

#

there was a $20 one

stoic island
#

I've leaned away from 224xt/vetroo v5 lol

#

I like overkill on cooling

fossil cedar
#

Gammaxx 400 and id cooling 214xt

mossy venture
#

could do better on psu

fossil cedar
mossy venture
#

pricing for psus just sucks rn

stoic island
#

Pcpp said no stock for rgb 360 either

mossy venture
#

earthwatts is $90 now

stoic island
#

So pure loop 360 is good enough

mossy venture
#

maybe

#

d.f 650 might be cheaper

ornate condor
#

Gpu is not much important lol he probably will buy whatever he can find lol

mossy venture
#

not sure, in clas cant check rn

#

typing without looking at my screen as well so sorry for the typoes

ornate condor

Rgb preferred too lol

not disappointed with my purchase at all. can’t really go too cheap, esp if you want some half decent speakers

Do they want wifi?

dense palm
fossil cedar
#

Imo they could go 12400 but I'd rather go 12600k on air and get good tower cooler instead

Wifi is not important

#

Thanks PepeBean FedoraTip

fossil cedar
#

Np

ornate condor
#

Also I just wonder if 12600k is worth extra 100$ over 12400 hmm

#

I bought mine for 230$ and I think it's good value but for 280$ it's questionable thonk

Best aesthetic pc build? Not performance wise but just looks super nice and fresh

mossy venture
#

or just wasting our time with having us make these builds

#

looks are person to person

opal olive
mossy venture
#

a better performing machine is more beautiful to me than a pc thats twice the cost for looks for the same performance

odd brook
opal olive
#

Well he's gonna make it be good too but mainly wants the aesthetic to be very nice and appealing the specs he'll handle

mossy venture
odd brook
#

about 1500 USD

jagged ember
#

if they wanted looks just have an nzxt pc

mossy venture
odd brook
#

yeah that would be easier since there's an ethernet port on the other side of the room but I can't move my desk

mossy venture
#

kk

odd brook
#

so I'd have to get a long Ethernet cord

opal olive
odd brook
#

it's not looks more just the port is on the other side of the room and I'd have to run it over my door

opal olive
#

Oh ok

odd brook
#

I don't wanna run it under because I know I'll trip over it and that won't end well for anyone lol

mossy venture
opal olive
#

I wanna say something but might be too much

opal olive
mossy venture
#

personally id go p400a over 4000d airflow

#

p400a digital*

#

wait one sec

#

i just realized what psu i put in there lmao

#

god damn it

#

nvm

#

sorry doing three things at once

odd brook
#

all good! sorry about that

mossy venture
#

not your fault, dw about it

mossy venture
#

in terms of power supply?

odd brook
#

mhm I do!

mossy venture
#

do you care if its non modular?

odd brook
#

not really no

mossy venture
#

theres a high B tier 750 for $70, but non mod

#

cool

#

wait, 700w*

odd brook
#

thanks!

mossy venture
#

imo worth the extra, but up to you

odd brook
#

awesome thanks!

mossy venture
#

@fossil cedar might have better ideas for the psu

odd brook
#

is the Corsair 5000d airflow good or should I stick to the phanteks one you sent?

mossy venture
#

the 5000d non airflow isnt great

#

if you were getting a 360mm aio, 5000d airflow might be worth it

#

but imo not worth for your budget

odd brook
#

yeah I changed it and was getting the EK AIO basic 360

mossy venture
#

also not really worth it for your budget

odd brook
#

but I could get a different AIO

mossy venture
#

12400 doesnt need an aio at all

odd brook
#

okay then I can get a tower cooler

mossy venture
#

if you found a cheap 3070, could go 12600k or 12700f and then an aio might be worth it

#

wait

#

i just realized what that mobo is, thought it was a different one

#

im sorry

odd brook
#

it's all good!

mossy venture
#

alr there we go

#

bruh

#

and now i forget the psu

#

im on a roll

odd brook
#

it's all good! I can add it!

desert gulch
#

Gaming ax may be a good subsitution if same price too

#

It'd be full ATX which can be nice for aesthetics too

mossy venture
desert gulch
#

Ax is gigglebytes way of saying wifi

mossy venture
#

ah

#

still not worth at 170 imo

#

thats z690 territory

desert gulch
#

Oh it's $170 now

#

Yeah may as well keep the mortar/pro a tbh then

vapid jolt
mossy venture
#

yeah few min

mossy venture
mossy venture
#

better cpu and heatsink

vapid jolt
mossy venture
vapid jolt
mossy venture
#

then the list i made works well

vapid jolt
#

What's a heatsink

mossy venture
#

cooler

#

the psu in there is high B tier, non modular though

#

what gpu did you get?

vapid jolt
#

1070ti

mossy venture
#

psu overkill then, one sec

vapid jolt
#

Ok

mossy venture
#

unless you want to have room for upgrades in the future

vapid jolt
#

I do but only for gpu possible and tam

mossy venture
#

then if you want room to upgrade gpu id keep the psu in there

ornate condor
#

if he buying 12gen cpu why not get 750w psu hmm

vapid jolt
#

Ok

mossy venture
#

but since they do, its fine

#

well its 700w, but whatever

mossy venture
mossy venture
#

it looks near identical

the 230w tdp means nothing

ornate condor
mossy venture
#

look at half of asus products

#

or zotac

#

and most of corsair

vapid jolt
mossy venture
#

please dont buy that ram

#

corsair makes terrible ram

#

500gb is nowhere near enough storage, assuming youre using the pc for gaming and stuff like that

#

tho ig you can add more later

vapid jolt
#

I'm planning to add more since I play low storage games not like cod but I want a cheaper ram

ornate condor
#

eww corsair ram

vapid jolt
#

Too expensive

mossy venture
#

then id suggest not buying white ram

ornate condor
#

tbh theres some t-force ram ssd bundle at amazon lol

mossy venture
ornate condor
#
#

150$ for 32gb rgb ram + 500gb ssd

mossy venture
#
#

or 140 for 16gb and 1tb ssd

mossy venture
#

imo yours is a better deal

ornate condor
#

t-force have nice deals even frequently having 10% off on those bundles

vapid jolt
#

Ok

#

Is that a ok ssd

mossy venture
#

ots a;rogjt empigj

#

me when i have my fingers shifted right one key

#

its alright enough

vapid jolt
#

Is it better to just get black ram and a ssd like that

#

I mean the one I had

mossy venture
#

imo yes, but you seemed deadset on the white ram

#

mp33 over sn550 as well

vapid jolt
#

I can always upgrade

#

But it's cheaper

ornate condor
#

I using T-force A440 2tb ssd got in bundle for just 200$

vapid jolt
#

Why is it worse

mossy venture
mossy venture
vapid jolt
#

I think I like the 4000d more

mossy venture
#

4000d is meh

#

id go 4000d airflow

vapid jolt
#

That's what I meant

mossy venture
#

p360a great case

vapid jolt
#

I looked at that for a while

#

Do I need to buy fans?

mossy venture
#

you could add a few if you wanted, but not needed

#

id use white p12s

vapid jolt
#

The 4000d airflow is like 15 more plus like 20 dollars of fans

#

So p360a you think?

mossy venture
#

they prolly have similar temps, just your preference

vapid jolt
#

I like the look of the 400d airflow

#

But the price of the p360a

mossy venture
#

looking at reviews it looks like the p360a is a bit better

ornate condor
#
mossy venture
#

that price

#

and it looks worse than p400a digital

#

or p360a for the matter

vapid jolt
#

Should I buy the cpu first I don't have enough money for it and I'm to young for a job but I can buy like one of 2 parts

mossy venture
#

not much of a point in buying parts you cant use

vapid jolt
#

But I'll use them eventually

#

I need 200 more exact

mossy venture
#

and new better priced stuff will be out by then
