marsh sphinx

Hey if i buy a bundle for a graphics card will a be put on a wait list or do they just have it in stock ?

brittle lagoon

If it says in stock, you'll get it, if it says back order or out of stock, its out of stock

marsh sphinx
marsh sphinx
#

this goes 100 over budget but this one also had a RTX 3060 as opposed to the 3050 ti which is like 20% worse

#

@marsh sphinx

#

#

This model has 16 GB of ram but an i5

graceful mantle

Im currently using a G15 with a i7-11800H and RTX 3060 (not for gaming, work) and I love it

graceful mantle
#

Im currently using a lenovo y50 touch with a i7-4700hq and GTX 860M (for gaming) and i hate it

stoic crest
#

omen is a bit meh

#

but at least they fixed one big flaw

#

that lid no longer flexes when it's closed

#

cause those plastic tabs makes it sit flush

azure pond
#

My brother sadly bought an omen 15laptop

#

Back in November

#

Overpaid 1450 for a 10750h 2070s mq laptop

#

On black Friday too

stoic crest
#

hm

#

well that's kinda sad

#

but it's not too bad

azure pond

I think

#

Mostly minecraft though

#

FO4 can be pepeg. It is a bit cpu heavy and modding makes it perform like actual garbage if you aren't careful. I have problems keeping it above 100 at 1080p sometimes with my desktop even with optimization mods

#

Gonna try and get a 3060ti fe

azure pond
#

it might not be today apparently

azure pond
#

fe specifically, because i mine on the side

#

only going for it because itd be a free upgrade without a big loss in efficiency

azure pond
#

is it safe to save a credit/debit card to a site?

graceful mantle
#

Depends on the site

azure pond
#

best buy

graceful mantle
#

If its like best buy or amazon then ofc

azure pond
#

kk

#

wasnt sure if viruses or crap like that would be able to access it if i somehow managed to get one

graceful mantle
#

No

azure pond
#

cool thanks

#

wanted to add it in case i do get through on the 3080

graceful mantle
#

Those are multi billion dollar companies, their security is top notch

dire shuttle
graceful mantle
#

I mean he never mentioned having themal issues

marsh sphinx
#

Well I do have thermal issues when I played cyberpunk for 40 minutes

graceful mantle
#

Understandable

marsh sphinx
#

Max settings 70 C on the gpu and 65 C on cpu

graceful mantle
#

3060m and cyberpunk dont match well

marsh sphinx
#

^ cyberpunk ultra settings

marsh sphinx
marsh sphinx
#

When I got this laptop I realized that I would have to compromise even with a desktop 3060 so now I have a RX 6900 XT

#

I'd hate to say it

dire shuttle
marsh sphinx
#

But razer is sometimes cheaper with laptops when it comes to price/performance. They have some laptops with 3090s. They also have better cooling solutions

marsh sphinx
#

I bought the laptop to game on so I never really thought to use any rendering benchmarks

dire shuttle
marsh sphinx
azure pond
marsh sphinx
azure pond
#

yeah thats because a desktop with proper cooling will obviously be cooler than a laptop

#

but those are pretty good temps for a gaming laptop

marsh sphinx
#

Ah

azure pond
#

thermal issues means overheating

#

90c+

marsh sphinx
#

Used to have that with a G3 lol whole thing would crash

#

update on hd58x

#

initial clamping pressure is a bit much, but has eased up over an hour of use

#

sounds analytical, good bass

azure pond
#

been refreshing every so often on bb

no drop yet sadge

#

itll prolly be tmrw

#

new years drop would make sense

#

Why are 1080 cards so expensive rn

fleet marlin
dull grotto
#

other than wattage isnt a 1080 ti somewhat like a 3060 ti?

#

based on nvidia’s naming scheme

fleet marlin
#

Perhaps, because my slightly OC'd 1080 is like a stock 2060S. Actually with a bit of adjustment you can drop max wattage way down with maybe a 2% average fps hit. OC/PL can effect watts quite a lot. 1v limit instead of 1.05ish means 160W max instead of 200ish & average clock is similar

azure pond
#

3060 ti is equivelant to a 2080s

dull grotto
#

oh!

#

so their naming numbering scheme works more like that

azure pond
#

the 80 ti of the previous gen tends to be equal to next gens 70

#

i think it was

#

780 ti= 970, 980 ti=1070, 1080 ti=2070s, but including dlss it would probably put the 1080 ti equal to 2070, im not sure how much dlss helps, and then 2080 ti=3070 at all but 4k

fleet marlin
#

Yeah their model systen is good for me. Obviously performance/upgrades vary by generation so the usual 970=1060 deal is different, but having more than just a plain 60 70 80 doesn't help

#

I'll add that the 1080 ti actually is close to the 2080, but that's looking at reviews from when 2080 was new and before driver updates might've helped

azure pond
#

about a year ago when i was first learning about pcs i really wanted a dual 1080 ti build, because i had no clue that sli was awful

#

glad i didnt sell my 60 ti for that lmao

fleet marlin
#

Sad, sli used to be so great. It's just too dependent on drivers/games.

Guys

#

This a small console sized gaming pc. I’m selling this as I no longer have a use for it.
Specs
CPU - Ryzen 3100
GPU - Rx 570
Memory - 16 GB DDR4
Storage 2 SDDs 128 gb and 512 gb
Motherboard- MSI 450 with built in Wifi
OS - Windows 11

#

Is that worth 300$?

#

I’m not very good with computer stuff I just don’t wanna be scammed or nothing

leaden rune
#

u could probably get 500-600

hardy knot
#

I want to buy

leaden rune
#

oh yeah that's a steal then

#

imo

#

yeah buy it

hardy knot
#

Ok thanks

#

It’s also small

leaden rune
#

just make sure everything works

#

yeah that doesn't matter

hardy knot
#

Ok

#

Tysm

grand orbit
leaden rune
#

very

#

the card alone probably goes for that much

hardy knot
#

Wow

#

It got listed a few days ago but I didn’t think anything of it

#

I hope it’s still available

azure pond
#

oh yeah if youre buying it definitely

#

just make sure it works

fleet marlin
#

rx 570? tbh it sort of equals a 1060 if I recall.

azure pond
#

1060 6gb seems to beat it

#

by a very small margin

#

like 5% dif it seems

#

it doesnt state if thats the 8gb or 4gb version though, and none of the sites i trust other than passmark do

#

and i dont feel like looking through passmark for benches

fleet marlin
#

Oh I was mainly referencing the 570 price because I didn't recall a 1060 being near $300, but perhaps I'm mistaken

azure pond
#

i was just commenting on the perf

marsh sphinx
#

Ok

#

That’s a good deal

marsh sphinx
#

Thoughts

stoic crest
#

it's good

Anyone have a good prebuilt link for a gaming pc for under 300$ I can’t find one.

#

What you're looking for is a used laptop at that price point

warm thicket
#

If you are lucky, you could get a i5 OptiPlex for cheap and throw a SSD in it with some cheap GPU

opal flume
#

If you do that, aim for the mini towers with 4th gen cpus. 9020 MTs are generally pretty good

Mercari is pretty weird but I did see a strix 1080 for $450ish while most were $600+

lofty moss
#

mercari ok

split badge
#

i got a question. i dont want "ur choice" bs. both the s22 and iphone 14 coming out next year. which one would guys gets

lofty moss
#

i picked up my 10920x off mercari actually

stoic crest
#

i don't know

lofty moss
stoic crest
#

^

lofty moss
#

i wouldnt get either

#

because they are a huge waste of money

stoic crest
#

we can't decide on stuff that hasn't released lol

lofty moss
#

also because they dont exist yet lol

stoic crest
#

nor is there any useful info on em yet

lofty moss
#

they will be smart

stoic crest
#

like very preliminary info

lofty moss
#

they will be phones

modest totem
#

iphone for life 😆

lofty moss
#

they will be identical to what already exists, but slightly more powerful

#

with a slightly better camera, and slightly better battery

split badge
#

bruh

stoic crest
#

tho s22 has new exynos, but in some markets

lofty moss
#

what were you expecting?

stoic crest
#

with radeon gpu

#

but otherwise the us is likely to just get qcomm

split badge
lofty moss
#

are you trapped in the apple ecosystem?

stoic crest
#

well

lofty moss
#

if your a slave to apple

#

get iphone

stoic crest
#

like sassyfish said

lofty moss
#

else make the switch to android now and never look back

stoic crest
#

we can't help you with choosing unreleased phones

#

those phones doesn't even exist yet

lofty moss
#

even if they did though, we would say "what phone are you using now"

#

and tell you to stick with that same product line

#

well, operating system line

stoic crest
#

ye

lofty moss
#

apple to apple, android to android, because theyre all the same, youre just making your phone upgrade process more time consuming

#

by migrating to a different platform

stoic crest
#

i can't move to iphone myself even if i do have the cash, so ya

#

i started my smartphone usage with android

#

stuck with google

lofty moss
#

yeah if i were a billionare i would still be using my note 9

#

phone is phone

stoic crest
#

moving to ios would be a pain for me

split badge
lofty moss
#

then what do your parents use

#

what do your friends use

#

and, do you use apple computers or windows computers more

split badge
lofty moss
#

yeah figured it would be split like that

#

sometimes it isnt though

#

as for the last question

#

if you were buying a laptop

#

would you get a macbook or a dell

#

the reasons for this are simple

#

quality of life is vastly superior than your cellphones spec sheet

#

and thats all that matters when it comes to the differences between selling your soul to the apple ecosystem or just getting an android

split badge
stoic crest
#

well, once you get into apple ecosystem

#

you're stuck with it

lofty moss
stoic crest
#

unless you can bear the pain of moving everything if you do wanna move later

lofty moss
#

if you had to buy a laptop

#

what would to be more comfortable using

#

an apple laptop

#

or a laptop with windows on it

#

if youre a windows user, you get an android, because most of the reasons for getting the iphone are invalidated

#

if you like macbooks and OSX, the integration features you get in the apple ecosystem are worthwhile

split badge
#

but videos or pic u take with andriod that u post on social media, the quality most time is bad

lofty moss
#

homie

#

thats a meme

#

the whole "android camera quality bad" is a funny meme for a reason

light bay
#

optimization sucks

lofty moss
#

you using a 90 dollar motorola?

#

what did you expect lmao

light bay
#

raw camera quallity is good, its just app optimization that is subpar to apple

lofty moss
#

get a google pixel?

#

:P

split badge
lofty moss
#

no im sorry

#

get a real camera

light bay
#

ive used both pixel 6 pro and my personal work phone which is a 13 pro max

lofty moss
#

5head

split badge
light bay
#

in raw quality, id def say pixel 6 pro was better

lofty moss
#

unc?

light bay
#

but when it came to posting on a insta story, apple wins

lofty moss
#

dw about it lmao

light bay
#

yeah but still

#

snapchat and stuff

#

aswell

stoic crest
#

it won't look so bad tho

lofty moss
#

i use my note 9 from 2017. it takes good enough pictures

light bay
#

its not enough to make me switch to apple as my personal phone but its still there

lofty moss
#

if i cared about my pictures i would get a real camera

stoic crest
#

sure iphone has better optim but good android cam does the job more than fine

split badge
light bay
#

also iphone has lidar which android dont got, so for my work stuff i stick with a 13 pro max

lofty moss
#

samsung

#

literally not even a question

#

not worth selling out to apple

#

imo

split badge
lofty moss
#

i mean

that ive asked twice

lofty moss

split badge
light bay
#

never for official job stuff, just for if a area needs to be done by a engineer and they could use a basic layout

light bay
#

thats not even out yet

lofty moss
#

not even announced yet

#

but thats what its prolly gonna be called lol

light bay
#

yeah lol

#

much more predictable than amd for sure

lofty moss
#

heh

#

more predictable that nvidia for sure

light bay
#

oh yeah easily

stoic crest
#

intel decided to change things for alder lake u tho

#

it's now p and not called 12500u or something

light bay
#

yeah

stoic crest
#

rather it's 1250p kekw

#

that's real needless

lofty moss

better than 11800h

Hey, so I apologize if this is the wrong channel to ask this type of question, but does anyone know how to actually use promo codes for products on the Newegg website? I'm new to the whole thing, but I already know how to apply promo codes. But when I go to the checkout page, it says that my email address is not eligible for the promo code I put in. How do I make it eligible?

jolly inlet
#

Most of the time the codes apply automatically if you're signed in. Otherwise there's a promo code box in checkout.

#

Your email ineligible message, however, doesn't really have a fix.

#

Often codes are region or time locked

Why does Newegg sell items at a regular price for several weeks, jack up the price by a significant amount, then send out an email a day later where the item is "on sale" at the previous regular price. Then when the sale is over, the item is back to its regular price again? It reminds me of the black friday "sale" meme. Do people actually fall for that? I guess they do.

@shut lava talk here

#

not tech deals

shut lava
#

Check pc part picker for the pricing over the last 6 months. That's the normal newegg price. Newegg raised the price 2 days ago then put it "on sale" today at the normal price. Newegg has been raising the price, then putting the card "on sale" a day or two later at its normal $1599.99 price once or twice a month for a few months now. They did it multiple times in october and november.

and it doesnt matter that its not discounted rn or that they did it multiple times

#

literally

#

no one cares

#

its a great card

#

and its at a good price rn

#

its a tech deal

shut lava
#

How is it aa "tech deal" when its the normal price that Newegg sells it for most of the time other than the few days a month they raise the price then offer it at its normal price as a "sale"

#

November, the card was $159.99. Newegg raised the price to $1899.99 on November 15th. Newegg then sent an email on the 16th about a sale that brings the card down to $1599.99. The sale ended a few days later and the same card is $1599.99 again after the "sale" is over. You can find emails from newegg every single time the price of the card jumps.

oak sentinel
#

you are confused.

#

its a good gpu available at a good price

it wasnt a tech deal on november 15th

what price it was at is irrelevant

its at a good price rn

shut lava
#

The same thing happened in October with Newegg's sales around Halloween. The 6900 XT OC Formula was $1599.99. Price goes up to $1899.99. Newegg sent out an email with a sale a day later where the card is on sale for $1599.99. A few days alter whent he slae is over the price goes back to $1599.99

oak sentinel
#

ok but how is that relevant?

shut lava
#

Its a good price almost every day since September.

oak sentinel
#

ok so whats ur point

shut lava
#

How is it a "deal" when its the normal price that it has been most days since september or october? Deal implies some sort of lwoer than normal price.

oak sentinel
#

you sir are confused

shut lava
#

Its been $1599.99-$1629.99 most of the time since September. When the price is higher on Newegg, newegg puts it on sale at the $1599.99-$1629.99 price.

oak sentinel
#

it does not belong there

Deal implies below normal price or a braigain when compared to regular price. $1599.99 is the normal price.

ull just get downvoted and eventually muted/banned

#

but you can

shut lava
#

Yet the entire context of the channel implies that things are available at a reduced price. The 6900 XT OC Formula is not at a reduced price when its $1599.99. That's the normal price that Newegg sells it for.

oak sentinel
#

cry about it

#

and downvote my deal

#

i give up

shut lava
#

We disagree on the definition, but the cambridge dictionary says that in context of a purchase a "deal" is a bargain. When I looked up bargain, it says something sold much lower than its normal price. English expressions for non english speakers says in the context of a purchase a deal is a purchase below normal price. My focus was on the context context deal is used in.

heady jasper
#

Not really a bargain when they inflate the price for a short time right before the new "deal" when the "sale" price is what the standard price has almost always been.

Before EVGA recently raised the price of the 3090 Kingpin, the Kingpin was $400-500 more than the MSRP of the 3090 Founder's edition depending on if you got the Hybrid or Hydro copper. My Hybrid was $1909.99. My Hydro Copper was a little over $100 more than the Hybrid. The OC Formula is $600 more than the MSRP of the reference model. Its not an awful price for what you get, but that depends if you go by overall dollar increase over base/reference model or by percentage in price increase over the base/reference model.

#

When the OC Formula and Red Devil Ultimate were listed for a few hundred dollars more than a Kingpin 3090 I thought the price was a bit ridiculous.

grand orbit
shut lava
#

Until you turn on ray tracing...

#

That's a whole other discussion though

#

Also the 6900 XT isn't as compatible with hardware acceleration for most 3D rendering software or give as much of an improvement with some of the most popular video editing software.

#

It entirely depends on what you are buying the card for.

#

Render times with a 6900 XT card vs a 3090 in some of the software I use would be 4 time to 10 times longer for example.

#

Either way, if you buy a Kingpin 3090 or OC Formula mainly for gaming use, its overkill.

#

The people on the falcodrin discord have been rather successful getting 6900 XT AMD direct reference cards with the software they have. I bought one last summer direct from AMD with their browser plugin.

#

I disagree that ray tracing is a gimmick. I noticed a difference in games and it is the way of the future for game lighting. Its getting easier to integrate it into new games with game engine updates.

#

Have you seen the difference when people add 3rd party ray tracing to old games? They look so much better.

grand orbit
shut lava
#

I still get good frame rates with ray tracing on, so I can't complain.

grand orbit

What do you define good tho?

stoic crest
#

thing with radeon direct is that it's pretty limited in supply

#

but valid point i guess

shut lava
#

At 3440x1440 I get 80-130 FPS average with ray tracing enabled depending on the game and graphics quality settings.

#

That's with one 3090 not both in the few games that still support two. lol

#

Also some games have improved their performance with ray tracing since launch.

stoic crest
#

to many, rt is still gimmick cause not everyone could afford a 3090 tbh

grand orbit
shut lava
#

The most common monitor resolution is still 1920x1080. So I'm sure the performance is acceptable at lower resolutions with a 3070.

#

According to steam, less than 10% of people have 2560x1440.

grand orbit
#

That's correct it's leaning to 1440p now tho

shut lava
#

4K is 2%

stoic crest
#

when rt is not a gimmick to me is when even a low end gpu can do it half-decently

shut lava
#

With 70% of "gamers" having 1920x1080 ray tracing shouldn't be a huge performance hit.

or when it actually stops being a gimmick

stoic crest
#

but to its credit

#

rtx cards made rt faster and more affordable

oak sentinel
#

yeah but not really any more useful

shut lava
#

Back then, it only took a few years for the changes to be widely adopted and used because hardware caught up. 4000 series and possibly the next AMD series will make ray tracing much less costly on performance I'm sure.

oak sentinel
shut lava
#

The pre baked lighting in newer games can be very good, but compare games from a few years ago that have ray traced lighting added by 3rd party mods.

i can't see it happening until lower end gets better, which seems to be stuck in a ditch

those 3rd party mods that claims to be rt is erm

#

shut lava
#

In the linus video they tried to figure out ray tracing in minecraft in the wrong areas. I tried minecraft and minecraft with ray tracing. You see a big difference when you use torches for example.

#

The other issue with ray tracing is its new tech and not all the game engines implement it to the best of its ability.

#

new tech for game engines

stoic crest
#

that's why it's still a gimmick

oak sentinel
stoic crest
#

a good mc shader could look as good as mc rtx tbh

#

while having less impact

shut lava
#

So every new technology is a gimmick until its very affordable fully implemented properly I guess?

shut lava

One of the issue with comparing ray tracing to non ray traced graphics in many current games is that its not fully implemented. So its harder to notice the difference.

The page for that mod shows an example of where it doesn't work well compared to ray traced minecraft. The torch lights up the entire area evenly no matter what the distance is from the torch and disregards the color temperature of the light source.

SEUS-PTGI-SHADERS-1.jpg
#

With ray traced minecraft, the area around the torch is the brightest and the light decreases further away from the torch. Also the color temperature of the light for the torch is in the 1000K to 1800K range inr ay traced minecraft. With that mod, it looks like the color temperature for the torch is 5000K+ based on the light in that example photo.

#

also think that image either the settings were blown out or an over exaggeration by the author just to show how bad it can or seus messed up with one of the versions of ptgi because seus does fairly good with interior lighting. a comparison of rtx and ptgi, seus did better than rtx vs rtx which did better with outside lighting

or the other way around with rtx doing better with interior/dark lighting and seus doing better with outside light

It really is a gimmick because its not a necessity for gaming, sure it makes the environment look nice but its not required.

#

Its like weapon skins, they look nice but don’t actually help you. Except in the case of ray tracing it actually worsens your performance

I know I had read a primer on RAM timings, but maybe you can talk with me a bit more about the importance. I have never OC'd anything and don't have much understanding of the process at all. But what I picked up so far is the numbers have a diminishing degree of importance from the speed down through the 4th latency(?) number, is that right?

#

Probably wrong channel for that discussion :🤷:

#

I'll get this Discord thing figured out someday maybe.

grand orbit

For example, if you look at the zentimings window on the right, you can see sip's mem oc with all the timings here

unknown-2.jpg
rose ocean
#

I'm looking at PCPartPicker right now, and i see that they are not. But often are.

#

I wonder why 16 20 20 38 is bad, is the delta between them meaningful or is it just poor relative to what else is on the market?

fleet marlin
#

Yep tCL is cas latency. Also, The latter. An example of old timing was 800MHz 4-4-4-12 or 1066mhz 5-5-5-15. 1st number is generally CL & most important. The following timings can be equal or slightly "higher". They don't usually effect performance much if similar to the CL. 2nd & 3rd main timing spot can be different, but uncommon. My ddr3 was 10-11-10-28ish but I made it 9-10-10-30, for example. Overall ddr4 latency should be decent w/ almost any 3600c16 kit.

grand orbit
oak sentinel
#

not slower as much as higher latency

#

but yeah

#

the speed is the first large number

#

everything else is latency related

rose ocean
#

That is both of the middle numbers? or one is hidden is what you are saying?

grand orbit
rose ocean
fleet marlin
#

So much so that benching a game with various timings is often a waste of time, at least if CL itself is unchanged. This is just what I've noticed. Of course, bandwidth or latency needs vary a bit by program.

grand orbit
#

Not really, I've noticed a huge perf increase from 3200 ballistix xmp to this

Granted did get the fclk and freq benefits

#

But it depends

#

And i play csgo so very cpu/ram sensitive

fleet marlin
#

Csgo is 90% of that, lol. Plus you said 3200? Oh of course that'll be a decent change. I meant specifically 16 18 18 w/e vs like 16 22 22 (with no MHz change also)

If you felt like. Just for what I've seen it would be within margin of error in quite a few games, besides csgo 😅. Btw that 3600c14 looks great. Almost wish I spent the extra $15-20 for Ballistix since it at least can do lower Volts vs the G.skill, I think.

What is the real performance difference between these two? Their rated performance is the same in 3 out of the 4 numbers (granted idk wtf they mean) but what exactly would convince me to pay 2-3x the price for the crucial ones?

Only major difference is amount of memory, the crucial is double the size per stick compared to the T Force sticks (16gb per dimm vs 8gb)

I would just personally buy b-die for 2x16 at that price, or spend $20 more for better

#

But 4x16 b-die is usually pretty dumb

oak sentinel
#

2x16 bdie is 150$?

#

sheesh

#

Ah, that's why that one $98 kit is looking pretty good currently, even if it's not for all setups

grave delta
#

No, that kit is absolutely a great option for nearly anything given that you want 2x16

#

That said, you shouldn't run it at xmp for anything but zen-zen+

#

It'll do 3800 14 19 19 36 on zen2/3 any intel etc

#

I haven't seen 2x16 rev.e/b at that price since prime day 2021

yeah it isnt even showing on pcpp

I'm guessing there would be stuttering and such?

What would that cause?

You need really high ram speed to overcome de synced being worse

azure pond
#

Thanks

#

Was just curious about the issues it causes, wasn't planning on doing it

Is it worth getting a 5800x if you have a 5600x

molten halo
#

Nope

5800x has more l3 cache

#

And is faster overall

azure pond
#

And?

#

The only noticeable difference is the two cores

strong axle
#

If the person needs the extra power for things such as video editing or anything cpu bound then its worth the upgrade

azure pond
#

If they already have purchased the 5600x

#

The upgrade isn't worth it

strong axle
#

If its just for gaming then there isnt a point

grand orbit
strong axle
#

Fair

#

How does it even work though

#

Its just a ton more l3c

#

But how does that impact performance so much

grand orbit
azure pond
#

I think it means it can utilize multiple cores better?

#

Don't quote me on that

#

I'm not too sure how caches work

#

I'm going off how I know cpu mining works, with ryzen cpus being much better for cpu mining because they can use all cores because of the way their cache works

#

While intel cpus tend to only be able to use 1 or 2

#

Cpu mining still isn't worth it, but point stands

grand orbit
#

L3 cache is just like super speedy small amount of ram basically

#

L2 cache same thing but smaller amount

#

Same goes for l1

damn i saw a amplifi router on sale for around ~230usd but it seems the sale only lasted about 4hrs

#

@azure pond $5 off w/ promo code SSBNAZ23

#

Also 360/355 isn't that low for 5800x, it's pretty common

azure pond
#

Added

light bay
#

B&h had it for 340 for a while a couple weeks ago

#

But yeah it's p decent if you already have the biard

#

Otherwise just go 12600k/12700k depending if you live near MC

dark notch
#

even without micro

grand orbit
#

Yeah but if they already have am4 board
