Heh, you aren't the first person to point out that it's a low bar xD

#

I find that funny.

turbid locust

On x99?

Let the man enjoy his x99 in peace kekw

#

Anyone got a could gaming mic for pc they’d recommend in the $150-$200 range? I got the razor black shark v2 pro and the mic was horrible

torpid night
turbid locust
#

Lapel mics work really well, issue is that they're omnidirectional

shut spoke
#

The prebuilt seems pretty nice for the price

#

Parts aren’t as good quality but it’s pretty value for a starter prebuilt if someone doesn’t want to custom build

loud sandal
#

Lol starter prebuilt

#

That's more like a done and finish build it got i7 and 3080

shut spoke
#

Well I meant that it doesn’t take much work so if someone wanted a good computer, they wouldn’t have to swap out parts and would already have it

#

Ig “starter” wasn’t the best word for it

brisk sphinx
brisk sphinx
#

You could look into an AT2020 instead of the P220 but it’s really personal preference

#

Nvm forget about the P220, price of it got jacked up from $100 to ~$150

#

@calm wing

silent rampart
#

That deal is frickin insane

#

The one in techdeals

brisk sphinx
#

Yeah $1300 for a 3080 prebuilt like damn

calm wing
#

@brisk sphinx thanks, I've never used an actual mic before, just headsets. I might just get the astro a50s and spend the extra money if it will last long but some reviews are poor so I'm still deciding

brisk sphinx
#

How much would you want to spend on a set of headphones?

#

You could get the AKG K371s for around $110

#

So headphones +mic/interface comes out to around $250 I think

calm wing
#

probably not more than $300, I gotta start swapping other components of my pc eventually

brisk sphinx
calm wing
#

thanks, is there anything else besides the AKG K371 headphones, AT020 mic, and Interface I would need to buy?

HP is Goin hard with cutting their losses on 3000 series GPU's. While other companies are still trying to make a profit xP

Yo I have a question so when I built my pc i was on a mega budget and went with 500gb storage (ik stupid I regret it ) anyways my mobo has one ssd slot and I'm a brand designer so I cant lose any files and I need way more storage! How would one go about transferring info including OS to another ssd without a second slot... Any help is MUCH appreciated! Thanks!

steel wren
#

i guess he meant to copy all his files without plugin the new drive to his pc, because he have no other nvme or sata port on his pc

#

i say backup everything to a cloud service and download it after you installed the new drive or get an usb external drive to do what rommy said and clone the drives

azure pond

<3

steel wren
#

damn, i need to be strong

cinder kiln
#

Kekw

steel wren
#

still 500usd is very hard to avoid, still a 3080

cinder kiln
#

3080

#

Man a good 6 years in that purchase

steel wren
#

good news (or bad)

#

the code is no longer active

#

wenti into the cart

#

and on checkout the code disspaeared

#

T_T

cinder kiln
azure pond
#

yeah rip

steel wren
#

well, that was a steal anyway

#

either an error or the stock was destroyed in minutes

#

i was about to buy it

fleet marlin
#

Yea obviously it's been posted in a dozen other servers too. $300ish after gift card factored in is pretty nuts.

cinder kiln
#

That's insane if you build the rest of the system with a gift card

#

Could you actually do that thinkies

#

Like, everything else bar the psu for 300

steel wren
#

with the promo code

#

like it was literally 500usd

fleet marlin
#

Reading comprehension. I know it was "literally" 500USD, that's before factoring in the $200 giftcard there supposedly was.

steel wren
#

no no

fleet marlin
#

yes yes

steel wren
#

wasnt a gift card involved

#

was a promo code

#

but it seems it was a mistake on egg part

cinder kiln
#

Ahh the discount is gone

#

The code for $300 off was NEWEGGLIVE227

steel wren
#

yup

fleet marlin
#

........

steel wren
#

but the code dissapeared from the rest of items as well

#

weird, it appeared to me as a promo code, no gift card involved

#

look at this as example

#

promo code AND gift card

#

but not the same

#

the card had a promo code only

cinder kiln
#

No it really was chillin

#

It was flat $500 I saw it

#

No rebate no card

steel wren
#

me two

azure pond
#

there was probably a gift card earlier

fleet marlin
#

idk what some are trying to argue about. I've given proof some people got the code and gift card.

steel wren
#

this time was a flat discount, no gift card, no doll

azure pond
#

and that one ended before the $300 off one

steel wren
#

well bacca, felix and me saw it

#

no gift card, was a plain discount promo code

#

which made it more appealing than a 4 day wait invoice gift card

#

still we are making a fuss on something non existant by now 😛 back to our boring lives i guess

azure pond
#

but there was probably one earlier

#

as chillen literally has a screen shot of it

cinder kiln
#

Chillin's screenshot is the previous sale

steel wren
#

funny thing, when i saw your deal i rushed to the site and saw it as well

#

rushed to the checkout and the promo code... gone

fleet marlin
#

No that is from today. Skill issue, you too slow. btw that was mobile only. anyways it's dead deal now.

steel wren
#

i hate you chillin love_it

cinder kiln
steel wren
#

need to hate someone to forget my skill issue

azure pond
#

this is $500

#

and a $200 gift card on top

#

idk what you're missing

cinder kiln
#

Ehhhh

#

Is it

#

500, 300 off, 200 gift card?

azure pond
#

$800 300 off $200 gift card

cinder kiln
#

Wtf

#

300 3080!?

azure pond
#

YES

cinder kiln
torpid night
#

where

cinder kiln
#

What the sh

azure pond
torpid night
#

darn

azure pond
#

well, sales done anyways

#

kinda glad i missed it for $300, my mom would've killed me

#

500 i can resist

#

300, hell nah

cinder kiln
#

Should've got you to buy it for me

azure pond
#

well tbf

#

my 3060 ti would sell for $300+ anyways

#

so ig would be fine

cinder kiln
#

These deals don't travel over water

azure pond
#

ye lol

#

aus market is still pretty meh right?

cinder kiln
#

It's not good for nvidia

azure pond
#

oof

cinder kiln
#

I would've made big profit

steel wren
#

need to resist anyway till 4080

fleet marlin
#

oh yea perhaps I should've also shown the order total (before GC) kekw . w/e, idk how they can do these. Probably only 3 or 4 people got one.

steel wren
#

2 more months

steel wren
azure pond
#

Just wait for another pandemic to break out right before 40 series launch

steel wren
#

it was a massive discount for a 3080

#

MASSIVE

steel wren
#

🤨

azure pond
cinder kiln
#

That 420 3080 was real

#

300 yeston 3080 would be the biggest weeb dab this year

fleet marlin
#

I heard from 1 person who had order go through, but indeed a bunch probably got canceled. idc about the 4090 .Price and high tdp. Although overall efficiency vs 3090 is quite a bit higher at least.

steel wren
#

yeah 4090 is a no go for me, not counting the price

#

but a 4080 at 1k is a buy for me

#

thats why i must wait.... then these deals happen

azure pond
steel wren
#

yeah, wasnt rommy?

azure pond
#

And that had to have been like 3 months ago

#

Nah

fleet marlin
steel wren
#

yes

azure pond
#

I think so chillin

steel wren
#

he had the 3080 at 420

#

and he said it was on pristine condition as well

azure pond
fleet marlin
#

Name is fatalfreak btw. Pepe_KEK

azure pond
#

Only reason I didn't is I had just bought some other crap

steel wren
#

yeah you have a thing with monitors Sip

azure pond
#

?

#

I'm still on a 1080p165hz one

#

I did buy the m27q-x for $320 but order got canceled

steel wren
#

oh

azure pond
#

Unfortunately

steel wren
#

thats sads

azure pond
#

Other than that the last monitor I bought was over a year ago

steel wren
#

then you had the thing with your car

azure pond
#

Which was a 1440p75hz one for $120 after shipping used

azure pond
#

Though I might have to bring it back on

steel wren
#

preorders for rpl incoming

azure pond
#

Whenever I turn the heat on it smells absolutely terrible

steel wren
#

auch

azure pond
#

Like, something died in the engine

steel wren
#

or something dead on the compressor

azure pond
#

It's different from the last thing

#

Ac vs heat

#

Ac is fine

#

Idk i know f all about cars

cinder kiln
ebon stratusBOT

Skill issue

steel wren

next day after the announcement preorders will start

Preorder 13900kf

steel wren
#

thing is, only the K and KF models will be available to preorder

azure pond
#

Oh oof

steel wren
#

the non k models will be available next year or so

azure pond
#

No 13500 for me then

#

NEXT YEAR?

#

Am5 looking more and more temptingn

steel wren
#

im not totally into those, maybe ill settle on a 13600kf

stoic crest
#

but ddr5

azure pond
#

I'm building before the end of the year

stoic crest
#

is expensive

azure pond
#

I've waited too long

steel wren
#

yeah, me 2

azure pond
steel wren
#

im not into 2023 building

#

nor xmas

#

novemeber is my deadline

stoic crest
#

imo i would put i3 12100f as a placeholder

azure pond
#

That $100 is basically the extra it'd cost

stoic crest
#

better than ddr5 cost

azure pond
#

Maybe $50 cheaper

azure pond
stoic crest
#

hm

#

okay that's not too bad

steel wren
#

plus according to some "rumors" from moore's law, 13600 and lower will be rebranded alder lake chips

azure pond
#

And also it'd mean my brother won't have to buy ddr4

#

I'll just leave my kit in the build

steel wren
#

not looking good

stoic crest
#

moore's law is dead isn't really a good source of info honestly

azure pond
#

^

steel wren
#

yeah, those are rumors anyway, but who knows

stoic crest
#

most of his stuff are sensationalist

steel wren
#

dont like the idea of rebranded alder lake chips

stoic crest
#

i mean, more cores still kek

#

if it's true

#

but i doubt it is the case, in my opinion

steel wren
#

spit it out pal

cinder kiln
#

I spat

#

What else do you want

steel wren
#

sadly i dont think any b760s mobos will be available anytime soon if only K skus are released

cinder kiln
#

It was like this with 12th gen

#

Z690 and 12th K was first

#

Budget later

#

Also I would also consider waiting a bit longer anyway, 13th gen will make 12th gen cheaper regardless of sku

#

Also also also also

#

11th gen vs. 10th gen moment

#

Mid range was more affordable

stoic crest
#

it's always like this

#

high end comes first

#

lower end comes later

#

except amd takes two years to do so

steel wren
#

hahaha the guy from the newegg live is apologizing for the 3080 deal, too many ppl commenting on that

#

they took the deal out, the order came from above

cinder kiln
#

Le oof

#

Did they say if they'd fulfill the order?

steel wren
#

so probably they voided the ones that get through

#

no, he only said that

#

he is sorry for the deal on the 3080, got the order to cancel that deal

steel wren
#

he doesnt know who dropped the ball xD

#

ppl still commenting about that xD

#

they are right to be mad 😛

#

at least the yeston 3060ti is a deal 800-320 and a gift card of 130 for a total of 350usd

#

not bad for a 3060ti plus its beautiful

stoic crest
#

lemme slap this in here

#
#

not needing 360mm aio?

#

that doesn't make sense

cloud hornet
#

Rebrand 12th isnt fun, but 13th barely has any "improvements" afaik. Just more cache, efficiency upgrade(?), higher clock limit (by either v/f curve or better eCore compatibility [eCores lowered p/cache freq for 12th by a decent bit. Disabling them was nice for OCing for best single(-ish) threaded perf]), and higher PL

#

Considering lot of 13th gen improvements prolly come after PL increase, idk if Raptor 13400 would be much different then Alder 13400. But still all speculation on my part

#

Any other good bundle deals? Some look nice but I don’t know if they are worth it

#

Or just deals in general from dealsanity

fair moon
#

That 3070 bundle is nice

#

I kinda want to grab it

#

How much will my 3060ti go for on used market I wonder

#

380ish

#

Hmmmmmm

steel wren
#

250-300, dont think you can get more than that

#

and thats like if you post it today, because merge will happen tomorrow or thursday, then the used market will be flooded with used cards and your 60 ti will be one more of the bunch

light holly
fair moon
#

Yeah probably not gonna do it

#

Dunno if the 3070 would even fit in my case

azure pond
fair moon
#

The PCB doesn't extend all the way iirc

#

There's like an additional backplate piece added so the second fan will fit

cloud hornet
steel wren
#

raptor lake is just an upgraded alder lake. Safe to assume is a bit better

light holly
steel wren
#

not a complete architecture overhaul like what meteor lake will be

light holly
#

13900 would be way overkill for what I need.

cloud hornet
#

Dont really know about 13700

light holly
#

although I really do want it so I can do a custom loop

#

because I feel like a custom loop on anything but the highest end is a waste.

steel wren
#

then why do you want a custom loop if you are not buying the very best?

#

oh right! because is overkill for you anyway

#

then a custom loop is overkill as well, not to mention a waste of money

light holly
cloud hornet
#

I mean custom loops can be cheap

light holly
#

It's just the devil/angel on each shoulder that bicker back and forth

steel wren
#

then get the 13900k xD to not feel guilty

light holly
#

oh, I wouldn't do a custom loop unless I got the 13900k

#

so ultimately that is what determines it.

#

I'm already gonna go for the 4090.

steel wren
#

i mean, if you are comfortable with spending money on a loop you can go very well with a loop on a 12100f as well

#

yeah, overkill... but is your money anyway

cloud hornet
#

Also not to mention liquid cooling on GPU is where things really help, and including CPU after GPU isnt much more

steel wren
#

at the end what determine the build is your budget and how comfortable you will be with it

light holly
#

yep, but tbh.. I've upgraded my pc beyond what it started as and the PC is only 6 months old, so if I grab a new CPU, I'll be grabbing the MOBO I want as well and then I'll have all the parts to make a whole other PC that I can sell.. so yeah I'm spending money, but at the same time..

steel wren
#

i mean, i know a 13700k is overkill for me but ill aimng for it anyway... why? because i can allow it, even knoing its an overkill and a waste of money

#

because if i go with anything lower, i will feel guilt about my decision

steel wren
#

even if its the best for my wallet and my daily use

#

if you want a custom loop so badly on a 13700k then go for it

light holly
#

I basically want the best of the best to put into a custom loop so I do not have to worry about upgrading for a good bit.

steel wren
#

if your money allow it and you are happy with it, thenm go ahead

light holly
#

and since 13th and 40 series are basically here.. That's what I'm gonna go for.

steel wren
#

people here can advice you so much, but at the end the final word is yours... your money anyway

light holly
#

since 1. 40 series is supposedly much better than 30 series and well why get a 12900k when 13900k is right there as well

steel wren
#

still i think a 13700k on a custom loop is a waste xD

#

even on a 13900k if you are not pushing it to its very limits

#

a 360 is more than enough for both of them

light holly
#

I have a specific build theme in my mind that is my endgame and the custom loop will solidify that.

#

and like I said... custom loop.. on anything less than the best I feel is the most redundant which to me seems the biggest waste.

#

I literally wake up and one of the first 2 or 3 things I do is look at my beautiful PC.

#

It's literally my most prized possession.. as bad as that sounds.. I really don't have much else in the way of possessions in my life.

#

I have my vape mods. My PC. My Ebike. My MTG cards. Otherwise, I have no furniture. I have no pictures.

#

no car.

#

So that's why I'm ok with throwing money at my PC

light holly
#

I'm a 10 min walk from work and a 10 min ebike ride away from all the stores.

steel wren
#

still always remember that a pc if not a tool then its a commodity, always put other priorities first... but im sure you already know that

light holly
#

It's both. I do website coding, but it also happens to be something that I have wanted in my life since I was a teenager and never was able to build until recently.

#

Soonish.. I'll be working with SignalRGB to get the MK.2 Stream Deck working with it.

steel wren
#

yeah i have almost the same feeling, this future pc will be like a prize for me, not my greatest achievement (cause my kids fill that spot) but a beautiful prize nonetheless

light holly
cloud hornet
#

I mean, if people have issues with that then I dont think it's our job to help them out of that. Not really the place for therapy and whatnot

light holly
#

Just my thoughts. I mean ultimately it doesn't fit this channel.

steel wren
#

still i feel humbled for that @light holly love_it

#

thats why the lads around try to get the best bang for the buck of anyone looking for advice. to not overspend on things that they dont need, but only want

grave delta
steel wren
#

well, thats like a 35% off

#

wrong, near 50%

grave delta
#

About $400 new, so I'd say $25

#

Just got mine in today

grand orbit
#

Imo kingston fury 6000mhz (5600c40 on pcpp) or patriot 6200 kit although i think that went up in price :(

3080ti for $650? should I buy?

cinder kiln
#

link?

meager sandal
#

It's from Best buy, if I get a BB CC then I get 15% off

cinder kiln
#

that sounds decent

jolly inlet
#

Pay off the CC right away so you don't have interest, and that's a decent deal.

steel wren
pulsar fable
#

evga b stock has the 3060ti for $350

#

actually kinda tempted to get it

steel wren
#

we need a couple more weeks for prices to start crashing

pulsar fable
#

oh right the ether crash

steel wren
#

that could take weeeks

pulsar fable
#

dang gotta put my credit card face down in defense mode for the time being

steel wren
#

mining rigs are moving to other coins, the cards will start to appear at the used markets progressively, some will quit, maybe others can thrive on other coins, we don't know that yet

#

still 650 for an 80ti is a steal

stoic crest
#

inb4 4070 cheaper

#

but that's a long period away

steel wren
#

yeah probably by the time 4070 hit the market everything will be cheaper, very cheap

#

4090 and 4080 will be the very expensive ones

#

cause they have to live side by side with the ampere ones

pulsar fable
#

2080 super is also $360*, but given how similar it performs to the 3060 ti i'll probably just keep my eye on that
Edit: the 2080 super is 360, the non super is 320

steel wren
#

ill wait a week or two to make a decision. let the dust settle. but that's my opinion ofc

vapid wraith
#

hey

#

is the dell g15 5515 good?

#

I might get the i7-11800H and RTX 3050ti variant for 1100

fair moon
#

I'd advise you to stay away from 3050ti

#

4gb vram is too little for some games and will only get worse going forward

stoic crest
#

that's very bad price

pulsar fable
#

Hmm, strange. Did someone ping me here?

pulsar fable
#

It will probably go down in price

fair moon
#

laptops often get good black friday sales

jolly inlet
#

Meaning they get discounted to the price they should have been to begin with

fair moon
#

Already seeing mining stuff pop up on ebay

#

Saw a $350 3060ti earlier

#

There's a $390 FE up rn

#

$600 3080FE

#

$515 3080 but no photo and seller has no feedback 🤔

grand orbit
#

Yeston 3080 was literally 500 on phone from wegg a few days ago

it hurts to see that cheap gpu prices lol

fair moon
#

lol

#

I guess its all relative but I doubt BB is selling gtx 950 PCs anymore

jolly inlet
#

No but they are selling 1650 ones

fair moon
#

id argue 6600xt is still mid-range at most compared to a 1650

jolly inlet
#

The 1650 non super is pretty close to a 960

#

Like a 960 ti if it existed

#

They have 2 1030s and 2 1050 ti ones

boreal depot
#

Is the 6700 high-end?

#

Lmao

#

6700 xt I mean

#

Same thing pretty much

#

Indeed

#

Also is the 4000s out?

#

Ah

#

I'm excited 2 see the benchmark are stuff like that

cloud hornet
#

RX6700xt equal to a RTX3060Ti, which is considered premium mid end. RX6800/RTX3070 is considered budget high end.

grand orbit

no its not

#

they just dont mention what kind of games and resolution used 😛

#

still ideal for gamer enthusiasts no doubt

grand orbit
#

6600xt is definitely high end, not this range but over the generations

#

Like i would have said a 2070 super is high end last gen which is pretty similar in performance

steel wren
#

hey, how you doin pato, long time not seein you

Is Dell Optiplex 7010 for $15 considered a good deal?

quasi pasture
#

An optiplex 7010 I had gotten for 15 bucks was actually my first gaming PC lol

pulsar fable
#

If only it had airflow, for $50 it may have been worth it

Hi. i have a PC setup and i need help knowing if the parts are compatible with each other

brittle lagoon
#

Send the pcpp list if you got one

civic robin
#

yes wait

#

wait

#

what

#

bruh

stoic crest
#

Send a list link

civic robin
#

i cant send pictures here

stoic crest
#

You don't need to send pics

civic robin
#

how do i share a newegg PC build

stoic crest
#

Oh, it's a screenshot

civic robin
#

yes

#

it is a screenshot

stoic crest
#

Those parts are compatible together yes

#

But I would instead choose different cpu

civic robin
#

how do i know bruh

stoic crest
#

5600 performs the exact same for less

civic robin
#

oh

#

wait

#

i will send the rest of them

stoic crest
#

5600X is just a waste of money

brittle lagoon
stoic crest
#

ooof

stoic crest
#

The stuff will work together but like I mentioned

civic robin
#

ok

stoic crest
#

Needs so many things to be changed

civic robin
#

bruh

#

what do you mean

stoic crest
#

You're buying overpriced stuff, and old gpu

brittle lagoon
#

You're not getting your money's worth there in general

stoic crest
#

^

civic robin
#

does anyone recommend a PC i can buy for under 1100 dollars

pulsar fable
#

Hold up I'm on mobile, so the images aren't loading

stoic crest
#

Gimme a moment

civic robin
#

ok

pulsar fable
#

Oh yeah, I'd get a 12400f or 12600k first off

stoic crest
#

pcpp being slow

#

5600 is cheaper than 12400f rn

azure pond
high radish
#

I was about to share that ssd loo

stoic crest
#

oh god why is pcpp slow today

civic robin
#

no lol

stoic crest
#

im mot enjoying this

civic robin
#

what can i upgrade in that build

stoic crest
#

do you need wifi?

civic robin
#

idk

#

i think not

#

i will probably use cable

stoic crest
#

ok

azure pond
civic robin
#

what websitea re u using

stoic crest
#

PCPartPicker

azure pond
#

Can switch mobo to steel legend since you don't need wifi

stoic crest
#

it's a site where it combines best deals from any stores

azure pond
#

And can get 32gb teamgroup 3600c18 if you want to

stoic crest
#

wait g7 is now a thing?

azure pond
#

Ye, it's pretty decent according to mr111

civic robin
stoic crest
#

nah

azure pond
#

750 is nicely priced for what I assume will be an A tier psu

stoic crest
#

why newegg only tho?

azure pond
#

Limiting yourself to one retailer limits your selection a TON

civic robin
#

yea but not all of them ship to my country

azure pond
#

What country are you in

civic robin
#

not saying

azure pond
#

There are other pcpartpicker sites for other countries

civic robin
#

ima just say middle east

stoic crest
#

we're not doxxing you for it lol

azure pond
#

Whatever

#

One minute

civic robin
mighty otter
#

I don't think they care in here

stoic crest
#

it's whatever

#

bacca got you

#

pcpp doesn't wanna cooperate today

azure pond
#

I really like the look of that gigabyte mobo

steel wren
grave delta
civic robin
#

bruh half the price of the computer is the GPU

azure pond
#

Mhm

steel wren
#

welcome to 2022

azure pond
#

That's how it "should" be for gaming

grave delta
#

Well, if you're gaming, that's not a terrible idea

#

Then again, a 3090 can be had for $800 or less now

steel wren
#

Your gpu must 1/3 of your budget

grave delta
#

Or a 6900xt for $420

steel wren
#

at least

stoic crest
#

you don't need to focus on much of the pc honestly

#

gpu is the focus

#

cpus are so fast these days they're not gonna be an issue

steel wren
#

the idea on a gaming pc is save as much as you can to get the better gpu on your budget

azure pond
#

Yeah, 12400f is fine to pair with even a 3090 at 1440p. It's more than good for a 3070

steel wren
#

even a 12100f can handle a 3090ti

steel wren
#

kinda 😛

azure pond
#

I wouldnt say cut corners

steel wren
#

yeah, was a rough way of saying it

azure pond
#

Shipping on them sucks

steel wren
#

let me fix it

azure pond
#

Anything with a mesh front panel would be fine

civic robin
stoic crest
#

and shipping cases is expensive

#

they're big items

steel wren
#

well, we dont know your country yet

azure pond
stoic crest
#

im sure you can do it better local

steel wren
#

couldnt be that bad

#

i mean, im from Ecuador

#

here everything is expensive

azure pond
#

Then look at options locally. Cases obviously don't use chips, so they shouldn't be too overpriced

#

My friend in qatar did the same thing

grave delta
#

You don't really need a case

azure pond
#

Fair

steel wren
#

heck yeah, even your mobo box could do

#

once i built a pc in a shoe box

azure pond
#

Just copy nzxt, use a microwave

grave delta
brittle lagoon
steel wren
#

oe just nail it to the wall like some art deco thing

#

(i dont know about art)

pulsar fable
steel wren
#

no

#

used ofc

azure pond
#

Nah, used it wouldn't surprise me

pulsar fable
#

They're that cheap used already?

steel wren
#

brand new are about 650 so so

civic robin
steel wren
azure pond
#

I made you one for newegg my dude

pulsar fable
#

Wow prices fell faster than I thought

#

And they're still falling

civic robin
#

where

azure pond
#

I used newegg only

#

Just used pcpartpicker since it's easier to sort

steel wren
#

i was expecting some weeks before the flood

#

i was worng, more like days

grave delta
#

Maybe it was $700, I forget, the OCF

azure pond
civic robin
azure pond
#

About the same

#

It's just on newegg instead

#

12400f slightly better than 5600

civic robin
#

i build the same one but with a different CPU fan and GPU since newegg didn't have the one you put in

azure pond
#

What cpu fan?

civic robin
#

built*

azure pond
#

And the one I put in is on newegg

azure pond
#

Oh wait nvm

#

Do you care if it's an amd gpu?

civic robin
#

is an RTX 2060 ok

azure pond
azure pond
civic robin
#

MSI Ventus GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Video Card RTX 2060 SUPER VENTUS GP OC

#

ok

azure pond
#

How much is it?

civic robin
#

340

grave delta
#

USD? Don't buy that

civic robin
#

yes usd

#

ok

azure pond
civic robin
azure pond
#

Or get a 6650xt/6600xt

civic robin
#

MSI Mech Radeon RX 6600 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 ATX Video Card RX 6600 XT MECH 2X 8G OC

#

is that good

azure pond
#

Not mech

#

Any other model

civic robin
#

ASRock Challenger D Radeon RX 6600 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX6600XT CLD 8GO

azure pond
#

I'd just get that 6650xt if you're looking for cheaper than the 3060 ti

#

Will be same price or cheaper than any 6600xt you find

grave delta
civic robin
#

why cant i put pictures here tho

azure pond
#

Have to talk more to level up

grave delta
#

oops, lemme find the updated version

azure pond
#

Once your name turns green you can

civic robin
#

how does that happen?

azure pond
#

Talking

civic robin
#

is MSI Mech Radeon RX 6650 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX 6650 XT MECH 2X 8G OC good

azure pond
#

There ya go

civic robin
#

wiat

#

nvm

azure pond
#

$300 6650xt

civic robin
#

it says mech

#

ok

azure pond
#

Decent model

#

Mech 2x is the worst model of amd gpus atm, it's got terrible cooling

civic robin
#

MSI Gaming Radeon RX 6650 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX 6650 XT GAMING X 8G

azure pond
#

Mhm

civic robin
#

nice im green now lol

azure pond
#

$300, right?

civic robin
#

310

azure pond
#

That's fine

#

I'd get that, 6700xt, or 3060 ti

#

Just depends how much you want to spend

grave delta
#

Looks decent, if you're target is 1080p

civic robin
#

love paying 110 dollars for windows 10

#

afk brb

azure pond
#

You don't have to

#

Windows is free to use

civic robin
#

wait waht

#

how

grave delta
#

You don't really need to activate it

azure pond
#

Also I'd get 12400f and b660 mag bazooka

#

It's a bit cheaper and same performance

civic robin
#

whats a b660

#

oh

#

motherobard?

#

motherboard

#

?

azure pond
#

12th gen compatible motherboards

civic robin
#

didnt find 12400f

azure pond
#

Aside from that looks good

brittle lagoon
#

remove motherboard and remove cpu, then select 12400f and b660

civic robin
#

i found this is this better

brittle lagoon
#

no

civic robin
brittle lagoon
#

even worse

civic robin
#

oh

azure pond
#

Just make sure it's newegg as seller for that

#

There's one for $170 but it's a fake seller

civic robin
#

i didnt find the 12400fso i will order it separately

grave delta
#

$100 5600 + cheapo b450 isn't bad, but I'd still go b660 if you can

civic robin
#

b660 is motherboard right?

grave delta
#

It's a chipset, but yeah

azure pond
#

Yes

#

Mag bazooka is what I'd get

#

Or aorus pro ax

#

If you want wifi

civic robin
azure pond
#

Did you take the 5600 off yet?

civic robin
azure pond
#

Take the 5600 out of the list

#

It won't let you see b660s since they're not compatible

civic robin
#

amd or intel?

#

you also said i need the 12400f

azure pond
#

Intel 12400f and msi b660 mag bazooka or gigabyte b660 aorus pro ax

civic robin
#

select

#

what do i selet

#

bruh

#

afk brb

azure pond
#

2nd from the bottom is fine

civic robin
#

Ok

#

back

#

which one?

civic robin
#

hello?

steel wren
#

the gigabyte b660m aorus pro ax from the 1st ss and the 12400f on your last ss

civic robin
#

bro which of the 12400f's

steel wren
#

the 175usd one

civic robin
#

ok

#

so i added these 2

#

or well replaced

steel wren
#

👍

civic robin
#

final pc build

steel wren
#

without the win10 license, it seems ok

civic robin
#

what

#

then how do i download windows

steel wren
#

windows is free to download

civic robin
#

i have a laptop with windows 11 is there a way to put it in the PC?

steel wren
#

the activation key basically remove the watermark at the bottom right of the desktop

#

but you can use windows free of charge anyway

civic robin
steel wren
#

not that i know of

civic robin
#

oof

azure pond
#

Sign into windows on the laptop

#

After installing windows on the pc via a USB drive, log in

#

And you'll have activated windows on the pc

Shut it warpig, lol. Also for those wondering, currently 3rd party seller

dry flume
fleet marlin
#

Prices fluctuate.

dry flume
#

yeah maybe it's the region tho

grand orbit
#

Only worse in single core btw bacca still pretty similar in multi also b560 boards are way cheaper

civic robin
#

ok im done. final build

steel wren
#

dont use 120mm aios. those are terrible price/performance

#

use a tower cooler instead, much cheaper and same or even better performance in some cases

#

12400f doesnt get that hot anyway

civic robin
#

kk

cinder kiln
#

Swap screen to G24F as well, then use the difference on a better case like a deepcool CK560

civic robin
#

wait which one

#

CPU fan?

cinder kiln
#

Ya

steel wren
#

ditch that 120 aio

cinder kiln
#

It's not worth $80

civic robin
#

love how shipping is half the cost of the PC itself

cinder kiln
#

You can get 360 aio's for that price

steel wren
#

not an ls720 sadly D:

civic robin
#

fan & heatsink or water cooling?

cinder kiln
civic robin
#

nvm

cinder kiln
#

12400F doesn't need more than a basic cooler

civic robin
#

didnt find

cinder kiln
#

And additionally, you shouldn't spend more than $25 for it

#

Ah on newegg no won't be there

#

Uhhhh

#

Gammax 400?

civic robin
#

what to choose

cinder kiln
#

Vetroo v5 if anything but see if there's any cheaper

#

I reckon you'll find something for $25

civic robin
#

i think its out of stock

#

last time i checked

cinder kiln
#

Try amazon then

civic robin
#

no

cinder kiln
#

Then don't buy a cooler, use the stock one

civic robin
#

anyways what about the screen

cinder kiln
#

Not worth more than $25

civic robin
steel wren
#

the 12400f brings a cooler

#

for free

civic robin
#

this is 25

cinder kiln
#

Get that one

#

That's the gammax!

civic robin
#

anyways

#

what about the screen

cinder kiln
#

Gigabyte g24f

civic robin
#

?

cinder kiln
civic robin
#

ok

steel wren
civic robin
cinder kiln
#

Ya

civic robin
#

ok

cinder kiln
#

Then change case to deepcool ck560

#

Or uh, bitfenix nova mesh se

steel wren
#

also, as a tip... you should consider buying the microphone arm locally.... its a piece of metal that will blow your budget on shipping for no reason at all

cinder kiln
#

Deepcool cg560???

steel wren
#

that hing is heavy

cinder kiln
#

Ravell halp I'm at work

#

Nyoom

#

Case recommendations

steel wren
#

still? xD

#

kk

cinder kiln
civic robin
steel wren
#

ew, not that one

#

man, the options on cases are limited on egg

#

:S

civic robin
#

i'll stick to the other one

cinder kiln
#

P300A is ok

#

Yeah expensive for the specs but a lot better choice

steel wren
#

most cases are on amazon

#

thats sad

cinder kiln
#

That's how it goes if you stick to one shop

steel wren
#

hope your shipping fees dont kill your budget

#

the cases are pretty heavy as well

#

not sure about your country availability, but on my case, case and monitors are a no no cause weight on shipping fees, so i had to rely on the local market for those 2 things

civic robin
#

349.33 dollars on shipping

steel wren
#

well, not that bad

cinder kiln
#

Jesus

civic robin
cinder kiln
#

Oh ok

#

That's good then

#

I thought you were us based

civic robin
#

no

steel wren
#

he is like me, buying on the states but shipping to his country

#

which for some reason he will not tell us, but its on middle east

#

still 350 is an okish price for shipping that much weight

#

sadly on my case, customs prevent me from importing a monitor bigger than 24" regardless of weight, so im pretty effd up on that department

#

had to buy a 1440p 144hz locally at 450usd

civic robin
#

sad that newegg doesnt deliver it built

steel wren
#

and where is the fun on that?

civic robin
#

is it easy

brittle lagoon
#

Yes

steel wren
#

you sure? im pretty sure egg have that as well

#

an assembly fee

#

that why they let you build a list

civic robin
brittle lagoon
#

ENIAC prob doesn't ship internationally

steel wren
#

well, time to get your screwdriver and put on your war face

civic robin
#

fr

steel wren
#

to build your rig you literally only need one screwdriver

civic robin
#

does it come with cables

steel wren
#

cables dont need screws o.O

civic robin
#

yes but the PC needs a power cable to work

steel wren
#

that comes with the psu

civic robin
#

ok

steel wren
#

all the cables needed are contained in both the psu, case and the monitor

civic robin
#

and for a system i will use the windows 11 from my current sh1t laptop

steel wren
#

yup

civic robin
#

ok

Lol I don't know quality of that monitor but for those who needs 4k monitor for cameras or more space for apps it's definitely worth it

#

Assuming it's not good for gaming couse price is sus

Just a small question cause I'm no computer nerd.
Is $270 a good budget for a GTX 1660

high radish
#

Ordered one for my camera system

cinder kiln
#

Oh I've used one of those

#

Colour is alright. Idk if this is the fake hdr one or not tho

high radish
#

Been using 32inch 2k monitor for cameras but I think for that price it's worth to upgrade to 4k

cinder kiln
#

It looks like it might be the same one I used

#

4K not worth for editing imo, not without the other factors being better first

#

Better peak brightness, lighting zones, colour, dci-p3, adobe rgb etc

#

Ok the one I used was different, so it might be real hdr

#

Not VESA HDR400 but old HDR10 at 350 peak brightness

#

Pretty standard brightness these days

loud sandal
grand orbit
#

Yeah for word and Excel

cinder kiln
#

for bios maybe leokek

grand orbit

You can get 4k 60hz for 200 normally lol

I wanna get a 4k monitor

cinder kiln
#

lol no point

#

You have two awesome 1440p ones already

loud sandal
#

Yes huh there's better graphics

cinder kiln
#

4K is worth it for massive screens

#

on regular monitor screens there's no improvement of graphics

loud sandal

Yea that's why we buy 32inch monitor

Something happened where it default to 60hz the one day a while back and I was like asking fomie why my games are all being limited to 60hz she went into my windows settings and I was playing on 60hz without realizing

high radish
#

I wil use that monitor for camera system . More space is better for multicam setup

grand orbit
#

@fervent elk btw already posted and fast but not a top of the line drive anyway

fervent elk
#

ouhh

#

seems like a good price tho only about 20$ more than a drive without cache

I'll use it just for my internet browser.

dram cache is meaningless on an ssd

#

it only really helps with extremely long writes

keen marsh
stoic crest
#

Nope

#

Not really, cause downloading games is actually more like random dependent than sequential

brittle lagoon
#

even if your wifi is that fast, you're more likely to be CPU bound on downloading

keen marsh
#

"What Does DRAM Cache Do In SSD?
The DRAM cache provides the SSD a route map on what data is stored on the hard drive. This drastically reduces the read/ write time of the SSD and gives us more speed."

Even says during "Read" speeds which would help in gaming.
