Heh, you aren't the first person to point out that it's a low bar xD
I find that funny.
On x99?

Let the man enjoy his x99 in peace 
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
I wouldn’t know. but you could probably look up some XLR setups and it’ll sound ten times better than any USB mic
Lapel mics work really well, issue is that they're omnidirectional
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
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
Cheapish XLR interface and an AKG P220 for ~$175 would last you for years
Yea
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
If you're looking for a simple, affordable, and effective way to record music on your Mac or Windows PC, then check out the Behringer U-Phoria UM2. Ask any Sales Engineer here at GearNuts, and they'll gladly tell you that you don't need anything fancy to take down your ideas, and the U-Phoria UM2...

@calm wing
Yeah $1300 for a 3080 prebuilt like damn
@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
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
probably not more than $300, I gotta start swapping other components of my pc eventually
Link to the headphones https://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/K371--akg-k371-first-class-closed-back-headphones
thanks, is there anything else besides the AKG K371 headphones, AT020 mic, and Interface I would need to buy?
@brisk sphinx
A cheap boom arm like this https://www.amazon.com/Blucoil-Microphone-Suspension-Audio-Technica-Microphones/dp/B08CRYMXYN
And an XLR cable https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Male-Female-Microphone-Cable/dp/B01JNLUA5G/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?
Good ssd for old laptops without nvme drives, otherwise mp33 basically same price
How would you use it without an nvme slot?
Bacca didn't realize what you posted is m.2
(or did, idk)
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!
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
not really
and by zen and zen+ i also mean old threadripper
@eager junco how is the motherboard i posted a bomb
bozo
^npc comment
@steel wren
@azure pond 👀
who are you
I’ve been here since 2018
says the $300 off code isn't active
you on mobile?
bozo moment
npc comment ^ v
ok bozo
v
<3
damn, i need to be strong
Kekw
still 500usd is very hard to avoid, still a 3080
good news (or bad)
the code is no longer active
wenti into the cart
and on checkout the code disspaeared
T_T
yeah rip
well, that was a steal anyway
either an error or the stock was destroyed in minutes
i was about to buy it
Yea obviously it's been posted in a dozen other servers too. $300ish after gift card factored in is pretty nuts.
That's insane if you build the rest of the system with a gift card
Could you actually do that 
Like, everything else bar the psu for 300
wasnt even a gift card... was a 300 flat discount
with the promo code
like it was literally 500usd
Reading comprehension. I know it was "literally" 500USD, that's before factoring in the $200 giftcard there supposedly was.
no no
yes yes
wasnt a gift card involved
was a promo code
but it seems it was a mistake on egg part
yup
........
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
The last promo was a gift card and doll, this was a flat $300 discount not a card
No it really was chillin
It was flat $500 I saw it
No rebate no card
me two
there was probably a gift card earlier
idk what some are trying to argue about. I've given proof some people got the code and gift card.
this time was a flat discount, no gift card, no doll
and that one ended before the $300 off one
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
i didn't see the gift card either my dude
but there was probably one earlier
as chillen literally has a screen shot of it
Chillin's screenshot is the previous sale
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
No that is from today. Skill issue, you too slow. btw that was mobile only. anyways it's dead deal now.
i hate you chillin 
need to hate someone to forget my skill issue
yall
this is $500
and a $200 gift card on top
idk what you're missing
$800 300 off $200 gift card
YES

where
What the sh
out of stock
darn
well, sales done anyways
kinda glad i missed it for $300, my mom would've killed me
500 i can resist
300, hell nah
These deals don't travel over water
It's not good for nvidia
oof
I would've made big profit
need to resist anyway till 4080
oh yea perhaps I should've also shown the order total (before GC)
. w/e, idk how they can do these. Probably only 3 or 4 people got one.
2 more months
dont think so, maybe egg void the orders
Just wait for another pandemic to break out right before 40 series launch
yeah i love you too pal
🤨
<3
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.
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
I forget which mod it was, rhe one with the really weird unpingable name got a $420 3080 off B stock
yeah, wasnt rommy?
?
yes
I think so chillin
I was so tempted to buy it when I found it
Name is fatalfreak btw. 
Only reason I didn't is I had just bought some other crap
yeah you have a thing with monitors 
?
I'm still on a 1080p165hz one
I did buy the m27q-x for $320 but order got canceled
oh
Unfortunately
thats sads
Other than that the last monitor I bought was over a year ago
then you had the thing with your car
Which was a 1440p75hz one for $120 after shipping used
Yeah that was like two weeks ago. Still kinda in pain from that one but the bank account is recovering
Though I might have to bring it back on
preorders for rpl incoming
Whenever I turn the heat on it smells absolutely terrible
auch
Like, something died in the engine
or something dead on the compressor
It's different from the last thing
Ac vs heat
Ac is fine
Idk i know f all about cars
WHERE
Reason: Duplicated text
and that made it worse :S car mechs have a thing to fix one thing and broke another 😦

Skill issue
intel confirmed that long ago xD
Fortunately the dude who owns the shop is my dad's friend
next day after the announcement preorders will start
So I don't have to worry about that crap
lucky you

Only way I'll pre order is if prices are reasonable. Otherwise I'll just wait for them to hit the shelves normally
Preorder 13900kf
thing is, only the K and KF models will be available to preorder
Oh oof
the non k models will be available next year or so
im not totally into those, maybe ill settle on a 13600kf
but ddr5
I'm building before the end of the year
is expensive
I've waited too long
yeah, me 2
I've been waiting like 5 months to build
imo i would put i3 12100f as a placeholder
That $100 is basically the extra it'd cost
better than ddr5 cost
Maybe $50 cheaper
Decent 32gb kit is $150 here
plus according to some "rumors" from moore's law, 13600 and lower will be rebranded alder lake chips
And also it'd mean my brother won't have to buy ddr4
I'll just leave my kit in the build
not looking good
moore's law is dead isn't really a good source of info honestly
^
yeah, those are rumors anyway, but who knows
most of his stuff are sensationalist
dont like the idea of rebranded alder lake chips
i mean, more cores still kek
if it's true
but i doubt it is the case, in my opinion
Not really a rumour
spit it out pal

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

it's always like this
high end comes first
lower end comes later
except amd takes two years to do so
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
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
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
lemme slap this in here
AMD Ryzen 9 7950X has been rumored to trade blows with the Core i9-13900K in single-core as well as multi-core workloads. However, a recent Cinbench R23 showing of the Ryzen 9 7950X puts the chip behind the Intel Core i9-13900K in multi-threaded tasks. Now a couple of Tweets from reliable leaker Greymon55 aim to rectify the thermal and performan...

not needing 360mm aio?
that doesn't make sense
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
Should have sw- nvm
thanks
In your speculation.. what do you think about the 12900k vs the 13900k?

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
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
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
I got 3.50
a sawzall could fix that
My brothers old card was an EVGA 1050ti SSC and I'm fairly certain you could legitimately chop off the end of it if you wanted to
The PCB doesn't extend all the way iirc
There's like an additional backplate piece added so the second fan will fit
Only real perf improvements come from clocks and more eCores. Hard to tell what actual expected clocks are, but overall improvement should be not terrible I'd think. Tho, it does come with the extra power draw
raptor lake is just an upgraded alder lake. Safe to assume is a bit better
I'm kinda thinking of just nabbing a 13700k. How big of a power draw increase are we looking at?
not a complete architecture overhaul like what meteor lake will be
13900 would be way overkill for what I need.
Dont really know about 13700
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.
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
aye. Luckily I have money to waste.
I mean custom loops can be cheap
It's just the devil/angel on each shoulder that bicker back and forth
then get the 13900k xD to not feel guilty
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.
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
Also not to mention liquid cooling on GPU is where things really help, and including CPU after GPU isnt much more
at the end what determine the build is your budget and how comfortable you will be with it
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..
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
I get this totally.
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
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.
if your money allow it and you are happy with it, thenm go ahead
and since 13th and 40 series are basically here.. That's what I'm gonna go for.
people here can advice you so much, but at the end the final word is yours... your money anyway
since 1. 40 series is supposedly much better than 30 series and well why get a 12900k when 13900k is right there as well
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
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
before anyone says anything.. Where I live.. I don't need a car xD
I'm a 10 min walk from work and a 10 min ebike ride away from all the stores.
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
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.
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
@grand orbit Can we pin this please? I really like this statement. I think it's worth pinning anyways.
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
I get that. It's still just a statement. Not therapy. Who knows... maybe someone will come across that pin and it'll change their life. No work, so therefore not really a job.
Just my thoughts. I mean ultimately it doesn't fit this channel.
still i feel humbled for that @light holly 
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
$300 refurb z690 tachyon sold by newegg https://www.ebay.com/itm/304595891609
Imo kingston fury 6000mhz (5600c40 on pcpp) or patriot 6200 kit although i think that went up in price :(
That game is actually pretty chill and fun
aw, the computer hoarding shelf is out of stock
I thought about grabbing it, but then I'd have to rearrange my room lool
Possibly in your area. One of the walmarts around me has it in stock still
the other 3 don't though
It's back in stock if you were eyeing it.
I'm kinda eyeing it too.
But not sure if I have room or need that much space to store my parts.
3080ti for $650? should I buy?
link?
It's from Best buy, if I get a BB CC then I get 15% off
that sounds decent
Pay off the CC right away so you don't have interest, and that's a decent deal.
damn, thats a steal
we need a couple more weeks for prices to start crashing
oh right the ether crash
that could take weeeks
dang gotta put my credit card face down in defense mode for the time being
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
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
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
ill wait a week or two to make a decision. let the dust settle. but that's my opinion ofc
hey
is the dell g15 5515 good?
I might get the i7-11800H and RTX 3050ti variant for 1100
I'd advise you to stay away from 3050ti
4gb vram is too little for some games and will only get worse going forward
that's very bad price
Hmm, strange. Did someone ping me here?
I got the Dell g15 11800h* + 3060 for $900 last Christmas
It will probably go down in price
laptops often get good black friday sales
Meaning they get discounted to the price they should have been to begin with
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 🤔
Yeston 3080 was literally 500 on phone from wegg a few days ago
it hurts to see that cheap gpu prices lol
3060ti for treefiddy isn't bad.
Should be that price brand new at this point.
I paid 2.4k for white strix 3090 
MSI 6650 XT $310
https://a.co/d/crWE9ov
No but they are selling 1650 ones
id argue 6600xt is still mid-range at most compared to a 1650
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
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
RX6700xt equal to a RTX3060Ti, which is considered premium mid end. RX6800/RTX3070 is considered budget high end.
4090 leaked to drop in like a week
https://www.newegg.com/pny-1tb-cs2140/p/N82E16820177144? pcie 4 but pcie 3 performance…eh
True true
but hey it's a 1TB NVMe SSD for $70
no its not
they just dont mention what kind of games and resolution used 😛
still ideal for gamer enthusiasts no doubt
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
hey, how you doin pato, long time not seein you
I'm doing good thanks only popping in the odd time, on holidays in Toronto for the week til Monday
nice to know 😄
How are you doing anyway
you know, between work and the family, its been a rough month.... hot af around these latitudes
leaks and the discord are the only fun i have these days xD
yeah looking forward to it xD
and to go toe to toe against bacca's pc when raptor lake hits
im pretty sure we will be out looking for the same deals 😛
which is cool 🙂
im pretty sure you will be hands full as well when that time comes pato 😛
we will be bothering you every day for tips xD. hope you can build your raptor lake system as well 🙂
We will see yeah hopefully it comes out soon tho
Is Dell Optiplex 7010 for $15 considered a good deal?
Probably yea. What's in it?
An optiplex 7010 I had gotten for 15 bucks was actually my first gaming PC lol
If only it had airflow, for $50 it may have been worth it
@steel sapphire @muted geyser
ty
what's that? a fish tank?
Drill holes in it 
May as well be. It's an nzxt 510
oh, an oven then

might as well invest a lil more on a better case and save yourself the hassle
drilling a lot of holes... no thx
smiles at the back with my 5000x
Hi. i have a PC setup and i need help knowing if the parts are compatible with each other
Send the pcpp list if you got one
Send a list link
i cant send pictures here
You don't need to send pics
how do i share a newegg PC build
Oh, it's a screenshot
how do i know bruh
5600 performs the exact same for less
5600X is just a waste of money
PC Builder
ooof
The stuff will work together but like I mentioned
ok
Needs so many things to be changed
You're buying overpriced stuff, and old gpu
You're not getting your money's worth there in general
^
does anyone recommend a PC i can buy for under 1100 dollars
Hold up I'm on mobile, so the images aren't loading
Gimme a moment
ok
Oh yeah, I'd get a 12400f or 12600k first off
Do you care about looks?
I was about to share that ssd loo
oh god why is pcpp slow today
no lol
im mot enjoying this
what can i upgrade in that build
do you need wifi?
ok
PC Builder - AMD Ryzen 5 5600, GeForce RTX 3070 LHR, Cougar MX330-G Air ATX Mid Tower
what websitea re u using
PCPartPicker
Can switch mobo to steel legend since you don't need wifi
it's a site where it combines best deals from any stores
And can get 32gb teamgroup 3600c18 if you want to
wait g7 is now a thing?
Ye, it's pretty decent according to mr111
can i order all of those from newegg
nah
750 is nicely priced for what I assume will be an A tier psu
why newegg only tho?
Why would you want to
Limiting yourself to one retailer limits your selection a TON
yea but not all of them ship to my country
What country are you in
not saying
There are other pcpartpicker sites for other countries
ima just say middle east
we're not doxxing you for it lol
yea but every time i say where im from in other groups i get bullied
I don't think they care in here
PC Builder - Intel Core i5-12400F, GeForce RTX 3070 LHR, BitFenix Nova Mesh SE ATX Mid Tower
If you want the option to use wifi https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wdYDhk
PC Builder - Intel Core i5-12400F, GeForce RTX 3070 LHR, BitFenix Nova Mesh SE ATX Mid Tower
I really like the look of that gigabyte mobo
you will be no special snowflake here 😛 we bully everyone equally here
It's a good crowd here, nothing to worry about 🙂
bruh half the price of the computer is the GPU
Mhm
welcome to 2022
That's how it "should" be for gaming
Well, if you're gaming, that's not a terrible idea
Then again, a 3090 can be had for $800 or less now
Your gpu must 1/3 of your budget
Or a 6900xt for $420
at least
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
the idea on a gaming pc is save as much as you can to get the better gpu on your budget
Yeah, 12400f is fine to pair with even a 3090 at 1440p. It's more than good for a 3070
even a 12100f can handle a 3090ti
Ehh
kinda 😛
I wouldnt say cut corners
yeah, was a rough way of saying it
Also you might want to look at buying a case locally
Shipping on them sucks
let me fix it
Anything with a mesh front panel would be fine
hell no this country expensive as hell
well, we dont know your country yet
Check how much shipping that case will be
im sure you can do it better local
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
You don't really need a case
Fair
Just copy nzxt, use a microwave
just a btw, it can matter, like Newegg ships to Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Israel, while wegg won't ship to like Iraq Jordan Yemen, that kinda thing
That's a joke right?
Nah, used it wouldn't surprise me
They're that cheap used already?
brand new are about 650 so so
i made a simmilar setup in newegg i will send pictures in a couple minutes
they will be cheapr in a matter of days, youll see
I made you one for newegg my dude
Right here
I used newegg only
Just used pcpartpicker since it's easier to sort
Maybe it was $700, I forget, the OCF
This has the option for wifi if you'd like it
is that better than the first one you sent?
i build the same one but with a different CPU fan and GPU since newegg didn't have the one you put in
What cpu fan?
built*
And the one I put in is on newegg
is an RTX 2060 ok
Didn't send the right link
Please no
MSI Ventus GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 Video Card RTX 2060 SUPER VENTUS GP OC
ok
How much is it?
340
USD? Don't buy that
This would fit your budget and is far better https://pcpartpicker.com/product/b2YmP6/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-3060-ti-lhr-8-gb-gaming-oc-rev-20-video-card-gv-n306tgaming-oc-8gd-rev-20
i'll try that one then
Or get a 6650xt/6600xt

ASRock Challenger D Radeon RX 6600 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX6600XT CLD 8GO
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
Demonmitt's tier list is a decent way to compare https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/500102940078505984/760150351797026888/GPU_Performance_tier_chart_V4.0.png
why cant i put pictures here tho
Have to talk more to level up
oops, lemme find the updated version
Once your name turns green you can
how does that happen?
Talking
is MSI Mech Radeon RX 6650 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX 6650 XT MECH 2X 8G OC good
There ya go
Right here dude
$300 6650xt
MSI Gaming Radeon RX 6650 XT 8GB GDDR6 PCI Express 4.0 Video Card RX 6650 XT GAMING X 8G
Mhm
nice im green now lol
$300, right?
310
Would this also work?
That's fine
I'd get that, 6700xt, or 3060 ti
Just depends how much you want to spend
Looks decent, if you're target is 1080p
You don't really need to activate it
12th gen compatible motherboards
didnt find 12400f
Aside from that looks good
remove motherboard and remove cpu, then select 12400f and b660
i found this is this better
no
i didnt find 12400f
even worse
oh
Just make sure it's newegg as seller for that
There's one for $170 but it's a fake seller
i didnt find the 12400fso i will order it separately
$100 5600 + cheapo b450 isn't bad, but I'd still go b660 if you can
b660 is motherboard right?
It's a chipset, but yeah
bruh
Did you take the 5600 off yet?
this?
Take the 5600 out of the list
It won't let you see b660s since they're not compatible
Intel 12400f and msi b660 mag bazooka or gigabyte b660 aorus pro ax
2nd from the bottom is fine
the gigabyte b660m aorus pro ax from the 1st ss and the 12400f on your last ss
bro which of the 12400f's
the 175usd one
👍
without the win10 license, it seems ok
windows is free to download
i have a laptop with windows 11 is there a way to put it in the PC?
the activation key basically remove the watermark at the bottom right of the desktop
but you can use windows free of charge anyway
is there a way to though?
not that i know of
oof
Yes
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
hahaha, idk why but your link shows 70usd
Prices fluctuate.
yeah maybe it's the region tho
Only worse in single core btw bacca still pretty similar in multi also b560 boards are way cheaper
ok im done. final build
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
you can use this one for 20usd https://pcpartpicker.com/product/Zr8bt6/id-cooling-se-214-xt-argb-682-cfm-cpu-cooler-se-214-xt-argb
12400f doesnt get that hot anyway
kk
Swap screen to G24F as well, then use the difference on a better case like a deepcool CK560
Ya
ditch that 120 aio
It's not worth $80
love how shipping is half the cost of the PC itself
You can get 360 aio's for that price
not an ls720 sadly D:
fan & heatsink or water cooling?

nvm
12400F doesn't need more than a basic cooler
didnt find
And additionally, you shouldn't spend more than $25 for it
Ah on newegg no won't be there
Uhhhh
Gammax 400?
Vetroo v5 if anything but see if there's any cheaper
I reckon you'll find something for $25
Try amazon then
no
Then don't buy a cooler, use the stock one
anyways what about the screen
Not worth more than $25
what stock one?
this is 25
Gigabyte g24f
?
Gigabyte g24f
ok

this?
Ya
ok
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
Deepcool cg560???
that hing is heavy
there
ew, not that one
this case is a bit more expensive but is way better https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16811853104?Item=N82E16811853104&Description=cg560&cm_re=cg560-_-11-853-104-_-Product&quicklink=true
man, the options on cases are limited on egg
:S
i'll stick to the other one
That's how it goes if you stick to one shop
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
349.33 dollars on shipping
well, not that bad
Jesus
its the middle east what do u excpect lol
no
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
sad that newegg doesnt deliver it built
and where is the fun on that?
is it easy
Yes
you sure? im pretty sure egg have that as well
an assembly fee
that why they let you build a list
i asked them and they dont
ENIAC prob doesn't ship internationally
well, time to get your screwdriver and put on your war face
fr
to build your rig you literally only need one screwdriver
does it come with cables
cables dont need screws o.O
yes but the PC needs a power cable to work
that comes with the psu
ok
all the cables needed are contained in both the psu, case and the monitor
and for a system i will use the windows 11 from my current sh1t laptop
yup
Reason: Bad word usage
WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE MR.
Bruh
Why where's it goin? Ha
Idk
@high radish that's crazy. Get one and test it out for me. If it's good, I'll reimburse you to send it to me. :P
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
60hz 🤮
Terrible, you can get a 6600xt new for that price
Yeah definitely not a gaming monitor 
Ordered one for my camera system
Oh I've used one of those
Colour is alright. Idk if this is the fake hdr one or not tho
Been using 32inch 2k monitor for cameras but I think for that price it's worth to upgrade to 4k
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
60hz is fine idk what drugs you on 😛
Yeah for word and Excel
for bios maybe 
You can get 4k 60hz for 200 normally lol
Vruh 
I wanna get a 4k monitor
Yes huh there's better graphics
4K is worth it for massive screens
on regular monitor screens there's no improvement of graphics
Yea that's why we buy 32inch monitor
You sure you set it to 170hz in windows settings?
It was
Wack
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
I wil use that monitor for camera system . More space is better for multicam setup
@fervent elk btw already posted and fast but not a top of the line drive anyway
Send to me after you use it for a day.
I'll use it just for my internet browser.

You mean like downloading games?
Nope
Not really, cause downloading games is actually more like random dependent than sequential
even if your wifi is that fast, you're more likely to be CPU bound on downloading
"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.
always depends on implementation, usually just metadata, which on hmb drives are just stored on system memory
I mean, just look at SN770 and UD90, they're dramless, but they have great hmb implementation, as fast seq as e16 drives and rnd basically as good as e18 drives
"Is HMB better than DRAM?
The Host Memory Buffer (HMB) feature takes advantage of the DMA capabilities of PCI Express to allow SSDs to use some of the DRAM attached to the CPU, instead of requiring the SSD to bring its own DRAM. Accessing host memory over PCIe is slower than accessing onboard DRAM, but still much faster than reading from flash."
so idk if anyone role play but when im in the city of gta5 my gpu is betweeen 66-100 when others are like in the below 50s anyone know what i can do to make it run less gpu?
Whats the price comparison of the SN770 vs one with Dram
usage?
What CPU and GPU do you have?
and what resolution are you playing on?
It's never that simple, difference in implementation between 980 and sn550 here, both dramless drives with hmb
i have ryzen 7 3700x 8 core processor with a 3060 gpu
Are you looking at the right number?
There's also like sn770, a HMB drive, being faster in terms of read/write latency than some with dram, like sn750 and 980 pro
what
I'm saying sn550 and 980 have that discrepancy in performance despite both being HMB drives due to different implementations
Ah
But what about the read speed
