what is the monitor situation looking like right now?I can't seem to find anywhere I can buy or price check the ASRock PG27QFT2A or the Dell
i just bought this shitty mouse for $300.pleasetell me i'm gay and retarded so i can feel good about myself.
>>101964186It could be worse.

>>101964064Why is there a random Sakura on the Fujiwara case?
>>101964348I doubt it. Dude was trailer trash and died before that pic dropped.
Not really a build, but I'm hoping you guys can help me since it's desktop hardware related.The only game I play anymore is Minecraft (Java) on my really shitty laptop. It has a fucking dual-core i3 and 8GB of slow-ass DDR4 in it. After installing Sodium the game generally stays locked to 75 FPS (max refresh rate of the external monitor), but when loading in new chunks it grinds to a halt with the framerate dipping into the low 20s for a few seconds. Sodium/Fabric are the only mods I have installed and I'm not using anything fancy like shaders.That all being said, what should I get if I want to just play the game at a stable framerate? I'm thinking the issue is CPU-related since it's a mobile dual-core from 2020. Currently I'm looking at 8th gen intel Optiplexes and they seem to fit the bill, but I'm not sure if the quad-core CPUs in those would suffice especially since they're the T-series ones. Can I get something decent for like $300 USD?
>>1019645142hu is so lame, I'm convinced people just pretend to like it because it's "weeb culture" anyways, good luck with your build
>>101964514$300 is cutting it pretty close. Like you'd need to wait/look for an uncommonly low-priced Optiplex and used GPU to make it work. I'd say the more typical "brokefag gaming rig" starts at $400 - ~$300 for the office PC and ~$100 for the card.With that said, unmodded MC is pretty damn light on the GPU so you might be able to get away with the Intel HD IGP on those machines. Can always save up for a card later if you like.If you can save $400 upfront then DIY also becomes an option eg. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MdKGrv (left some room in there for expansion/tax). Naturally the other route would perform better for general gaming but DIY would allow for later expansion/upgrades.
>>101964761Can you give me some actual advice?
>>101964883Old office PC and slap a 1070 in it and other stick of ram
what should i get for $1600 (240hz monitor and rtx 4070 super must be included)
>>101964883yes, get a used case off facebook marketplacehttps://pcpartpicker.com/list/J7cm6D
>>101964921Have you thought about a Cacturne v2.0?
Who actually needs an itx build? Options are much more limited, they're much more expensive, and you're getting worse thermals. The only situation I can think of is if you're using it for a home theater or just plan on playing on a TV like a console and your TV table can't fit even a micro ATX case
>Arctic Liquid Freezer IIII just did a build with this godforsaken thing and it was one of the worst experiences I've had installing a cooler in my 20-something years building PCs.At least it works good
>>101964285Retarded, yes. Gay, quite possibly. I'm ordering picrel.
>3080ti >MSI MAG27QRFQDwanting to upgrade to oled for better color contrast and better visuals what panel should i look into? Never experienced 32in is it really a big difference from 27? I personally dont like curved so no AW. Is 32 1440p noticable worse PPI? Since I already have a 1440p should I get 4k? Is it even worth it I mostly play ARPGs or casual single player in general.
>>101965079>screw to socket>screw to case>plug cables inDo you struggle to dress yourself each morning?
>>101965200They all come with the retarded AMD offset mount nowadays and you have to wrench down the springs to get the screws to thread. I'm surprised people aren't breaking their sockets left and right with this thing.
Any of the 4070 Ti Super variants to avoid at all costs? Also is the MSI Slim a fire hazard?
Anon here who had constant stuttering in every games, turns out it was the RTSS overlay, specifically the power consumption display. Well, at least things run nice now, but the PC upgrade seems to be a waste of money.
>>101965281I'm not sure I'd trust the Msi Ventus 2X since it seems a little itty bitty for a 250w+ card. Same with the Inno3D Twin X2they should work acceptably without throttling but they most likely won't run too cool or too quietrest should be fine
>>101965502The slim has a three fan variant too.
>>101965499Glad you worked it out. You can further optimize system latency with this fat autism guide here (run LatencyMon to measure it before & after):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sbXzM60ad8I
>>101965545Oh Jesus, that's a lot of stuff. Is there a TL;DR of the most efficient tweaks that are actually not placebo?
>>101965001Itx is for bugmen
>>101965232It bottoms out I don't know how it's an issue
>>101965001>>101965735ITX is cute, case dismissed.
>>101965867So true transister!
bought this, it has a 90 day return windowI couldn't say no for the price. it's renewed but it should be fine, will just be growing my media collectionSeagate BarraCuda Pro 12TB Internal Hard Drive Performance HDD - 3.5 Inch SATA 6 Gb/s 7200 RPM 256MB Cache for Desktop Computer (ST12000DM0007) (Renewed) https://a.co/d/hjrrAxM
Should I be going based off of what the QVL of the motherboard manufacturer for ram or the company selling the ram sticks? Was looking at a few and noticed that they don’t always line up, particularly the non RGB variants that I’d rather have.On a side note, are there ram sellers I should specifically stay away from? I was looking at G.Skill, Team, and Kingston for CL30 kits for the 7800x3D.
>>101965539the slim should be finedespite its name it still has a pretty thick and dense heatsinkthe fans are decently sized, I spy a handful of heatpipes and there's plenty of flowthroughit should be perfectly fine
>>101965125Imo unless you need your screen to be flat for professional reasons just get the alienware, you'll get used to the curve which isnt as big a deal on ultrawides. Your monitor is relatively new so going ultrawide+oled is the best way to get to feel you have made a substantial upgrade without spending $1200 on the 4k 240hz oleds.
>>101965125>Since I already have a 1440p should I get 4k? Is it even worth it I mostly play ARPGs or casual single player in general.The improvement in picture sharpness 4k offers over 1440p is marginal. As for OLED you might want to avoid it if your games have lots of static content due to burn in. OLED is the biggest jump in display quality after +60hz, if you're not afraid of babying your monitor go for it.
>>101966117
>>101966258Fun fact. Tech on Tech is ServerPartDeals Amazon storefront. https://serverpartdeals.com/They have more refurb drives here. Some are 90 day warranty and some are 2 years.
>>101964064>AVOID: 'Silent' cases, fanless cases, 4000D airflowWhat's wrong with the 4000D?
Is SMT off better for latency for X3D CPUs???
>>101966407HT / SMT does have a latency impact and is measurable.Will you notice it? No. So just leave it on as in some cases, games benefit from HT/SMT.
>>101966407Not for the 7800X3D, there's so much cache it barely goes out to memory
>>101966407I still suggest Cacturne v2.0 over any of those.
Which HRT brand should I take?
>>1019664682mg progynova morning and night12mg cyproterone every other day
>>101966395Good case but not worth the value. You need to bring your own fans as the stock 2 are dogshit.
what exactly is the difference between ram timings of 30-40-40-76 and 30-40-40-96? i'm looking at 2 different pairs of 6000MT/s CL30 64gb ram and the latter is $50 more
>>101966504the stock 2 are fine, just cheap and you only get 2.It would cost Corsair SFA to add 2 more fans and a hub
>>101966533The fourth number is tRAS. If you're into RAM tuning, secondaries not listed are more impactful to performance. tRRD_S, tRRD_L, FAW, tRFC, tREFI
>>101966429IIRC you want it off for DX11/SingleCore games and on for DX12/Vulkan/Multithreaded games?
>>101964297Thats mine. Have updated to Little Kings at this point
>>101966660Eh, not worth the time and effort unless you see a significant boost of like 20%+, which isn't going to happen.
>>101966739the point isnt avg fps, its latency. if turning off smt gives you any latency boost then thats huge especially at high fps. nobody likes stutters.
>>101966783Yeah but stutters are subjective, like bugchasers claiming the 7800X3D stutters even though there's no latency
>>101966783>latency boostNot input latency but DPC latency.Chasing DPC latency is a meme and I wish it would die.
>>101966839>shows the stutters in realtime>nooo he's lyingRetard
>>101966873Kill yourself bugchaser
>>101966894Faggot.Go get another booster shot.
>>101966928The only faggot is you, bugchaserHave a shower and brush your teeth for once
>>101966873>not shown: 50 trillions overhead from peripheral bloatware, 200 chrome tabs open running 6 million js webworker pipes, and poor wangblows support cpu scheduling offset on launch
AhemFuck gay tracing
>>101966928why frame chasers never include real time power stats in rivatuner readout lol
>>101966980Stop noticing things!
So SMT off seems good unless you need more threads
>>101966953I shower daily.>>101966957Schizo>>101966980Power consumption is what, 100-160W? Who cares when the GPU is using 500W? Your monitors are using 30-100W each?I swear power consumption people are the biggest faggots and hypocrites ever.
Why the fuck is it impossible to find a case without these stupid ass glass panels, any case that doesn't have it punishes you for it by removing shit the glass versions have like couger and fractal replacing the usb slots with plastic, or have 0 ventilation on the front whatsoever like anyone would buy a case that doesn't let them have any intake fans, and then they charge fucking 70-80$ for these dogshit cases. This shit is fucking retarded.
>>101967390Look for mesh side panels then? Don't look at glass panel cases and see if they have a non glass side panel version.There's a few that are full mesh, side and front.
>>101967490Why would it be any different to any other landing
>>101964064will arrow lake get delayed due to intel's fuck up with raptor lake?
I spent two days learning about ram and going through ram compatibility. It's slightly cheaper to get two 32gb kits than one 64gb kit. and I can get one without RGB. I'm looking at PSUs now, maybe the Corsair RM850e? any suggestions?
>>101967552no https://videocardz.com/newz/intel-core-ultra-200-lineup-leaks-out-launching-october-10th
>>101967619>spent two days learning about ram and going through ram compatibilityGo spend some more time learning.4 dimms will not run at DDR5 speeds
>>101967619Always 1 DIMM per channel (2 DIMMs total)
>>101967108zen 5 is a joke all the disabling in the world wont help that shit
>>101967660>>101967678What?I don't understand this, are you telling me that if if get two dual-channel kits, and put them into a motherboard that supports two dual-channel kits, they will not work as two dual-channel kits?
>>101967619>I spent two days learning about ram and going through ram compatibilityYou clearly didn't learn anything. Never mix kits (the ONLY exception is Crucial kits with the same speed and timings, but those suck on DDR5 so don't bother).
>>101967172my undervolted and overclocked 4080 runs at less than half that. also, why should I bother with a higher wattage psu for that matter?
>>101967723how much exactly im gonna undervolt and oc my 79xtx
>>101967720>Never mix kitsWhat are you talking about?two identical dual channel kits, is that not possible?
>>101967732240w
>>101967744They are not necessarily identical. G.Skill doesn't manufacture memory chips. In this case you would probably be fine, because there's a high chance both of those are Hynix A-die, but you never know.
dumb question probably but how do you find a (budget) monitor without ghosting issues?mine's also extra bad on fullscreen but not on windowed mode
>>1019676949950X is best for production while the 14900k is in the wilderness, gaming isn't bad it's just disappointingly stagnant Most people are best off getting Zen4 especially at current Zen5 prices.12th gen isn't even much better than Zen 3, and Arrow Lake is going to be expensive.Basically everything sucks.
>>101967772you go to rtings.com and play the panel lottery when you settle on a model'budget' oled will do you but enjoy your burn in/terrible lifespan
>>101967720>>101967660"Go spend some more time learning""You clearly didn't learn anything"As a guy who has spent the last 19 years working in offices, that kind of smug rudeness is the biggest red flag you don't know what you are talking about. EitherA. you actually do know and you aren't telling him that answer because you are a cunt. I would put that on your record and recommend you be fired for that.B. you don't know what you are talking about at all and just like disrupting people. I would absolutely call for you to be fired for thatgo back to plebbit if you are looking to make some kind of cool persona"but you never know."ok, 100% chance you are full of shit, 100% of the time people say that they are lying. every single time.
>>101967723>4080LolWell anyway, why do you care about an extra 30-70W?
>>101967792I just told him to learn more, clam down Karen
>>101967799even if i did want to go intelaviv, i would have to get a new psu, and a new coolerno thanks mr noseberg
>>101967810you 100% don't know what you are talking about. Or you would have just told him. You are just looking for attention by annoying and inconveniencing people. Since when can you not buy two kits of the same ram and not run them both without issue? they have the same XMP profile, same timings, etc.
>>101967710Two sticks of RAM can be overclocked easily since the CPU only needs to keep track of 2 RAM sticks. 4 and you will not be able to achieve the advertised 6000MHz speed.Long story short:If you want to OC your RAM and get the fastest speed then go 2 RAM sticks.If you just want large amounts of RAM and not the speed then go 4 RAM sticks.You cannot have both.
>>101967747very nice i think i got my 69xt back in the day to something similar>>101967780i alraedy have a 13600k which appears to be one of the good ones so far so im set for a long time
>>101967835Nta but he's rightIt is common knowledge you don't mix ddr5 kits ever since we're at a point where the kits are fast enough and the memory controllers will shit the bed if you do 2DPC over 1DPC
>>101967792You were told the answer in the next post. But you could always fuck around and find out. >>101967835>Since when can you not buy two kits of the same ram and not run them both without issue? they have the same XMP profile, same timings, etc.Very common on DDR4. You could buy two 3600C16 kits from the same brand, one would be DJR and the other would be Rev E, those would never work together.
>>101967792work wise, yeah and sometimes people get into positions where they dont belong due to connections, which also causes other coworkers to act like this. so shut the fuck up and stop acting like you are able to judge everyone and everything at face value. he even said what the other anon should be googling, or learnign. literally putting his final sentence into google will give you an explanation how/why that is. youre fucking acting like everyone here needs to do public service for every other retard. no one does.fuck you nigger.
>>101967835so now you're having a tantrum because you haven't kept up with what DDR5 requires.Boomer behaviour
>>101967619Shit CPU cooler. At that price just get an AIO and get better cooling. I never recommend Noctua because they're so expensive for marginal gains.Expensive mother board, the fuck are you doing?Memory - people already told you that you're dumb so I'm not doing that again.Get a faster boot drive.I'm not to familiar with cases but anything above $100 should have at least 3 fans in it, if not you're overpaying.Case fans are okay as long as you use them all, it's better to just buy the 3 pack.

It's bad enough now ram has to be compatible with the CPU, and my options are limited. so much RGB... why do all the good ram kits have RGB?My choice of ram wasn't just financial, it was aesthetic. I do not want RGB in my PC if possible, I just dislike it.
>>101967619That RAM kit is tested for 2 x 16GB @6000, not 4 x 16GB @6000. If you try using two of it, all bets are off.>trident z neo 2x16gb 6000 cl30 $188>noctua nh-u12a $183>crucial p3 plus $169Those prices seem pretty high.
>>101967914GOOGLE WHAT HE SAID IN HIS FIRST POST YOU STUPID FUCK. NO ONE NEEDS TO SPOONFEED YOU ANSWERS OR OWES YOU ANYTHING FAGGOT
>>101967914Kys seriouslyI gave a serious response and you didn't even read it
>>101967914ignorant fuck
>>101967914>what has changedThe speed. Because RAM speeds are so fast now CPUs can't really keep up.CPU can keep track of the timings for first RAM stick easily, same with the second. Add in a 3rd and 4th it starts to lose the timings of the first and second stick leading to instability.There's a lot of RAM sticks with no RGB. Just stop looking at name brands.
what motherboard brand/chipset should i get for under-volting/watt-limiting a 14900K? From little research Ive done, Gigabyte has a nice option for a hard voltage limit; do other manufacturers have this? Whether Gigabyte or not, do I need a Z690/790 for this, or would a lesser chipset suffice?
>>101967914>quad channel ram, or getting two dual channel kits, has been the way to go back in DDR3 and DDR4 ram daysNo it wasn't, you happened to get lucky if you did that and it worked. You could get one kit with four sticks validated to work together.
>>101967964Asus z790 is by far the best since they have the vf curve offset feature working
So, because of free time and tinkering around, I realized I was missing 6 months of BIOS updates for an i7-13700K build thus missing the newest microcode addressing the overvoltage damaging the processor thingy. Having done that, I saw performance profiles that weren't there, intel default, intel extreme and asus advanced oc. Went with the last one, but then I saw XMP got disabled. I'm assuming this is for the best, right? I have DDR5 32GB (2x 16GB), ECC, CL32, 6800MHz sticks for the record.
>>101967964I like Asus and Gigabyte BIOS. If you're just lazy you could just use XMP.
>>101967893saying double spaced lines is 'redditspacing' is like calling the ok hand sign white supremacyif there were such a thing as redditspacing, you would make sure to enter an extra newline after the post number you're quoting, in any case.go back to neofag or gamefags or whatever shithole you are a refugee from
>>101967976Just enable it again. Those profiles only load their profile and leaves everything at default. It wont hurt you if you OC the RAM.
>>101967976>Went with the last one, but then I saw XMP got disabled. I'm assuming this is for the best, right?XMP should still be safe, keep it enabled if it worked before
>>101967976Go with Asus advanced and XMP I in bios Enable XMP since you already paid for it

>>101967889>Shit CPU cooler. At that price just get an AIO and get better cooling. I never recommend Noctua because they're so expensive for marginal gains.you are the only person I've seen to call that CPU cooler shit. I need one with a maximum width of 125mm so I can sue the top of my GPU heat plate to heat medication. more importantly, it's very quiet.

>>101968015AUSTRALIAN DOLLARSAUSTRALIAN PRICES
>>101968006>you are the only person I've seen to call that CPU cooler shitBecause people don't realize that paying an extra $100 (ONE HUNDRED) for marginal, like 1-2C, cooling is down right retarded. Your CPU will run fine at 70C or 68C. Paying $100 for 68C is dumb.>suggestions? I have a sandisk M.2 that has been my only drive for years. Samsung 980 is okay. or WD SN850X.And your case is expensive with no fans.But hey, it's your money.Oh, and as for PSU Corsair is a true and trusted brand. Kinda expensive but PSU is the one thing I really don't recommend cheaping out on. Except when they don't need a large wattage one.
>>101967108>So SMT off seems good unless you need more threadsOh masters of the universe. How can you tell?
>>101967914>could someone explain what has changed?RAM, has come with an IQ test."Do you want your ram to cycle LED colors?"Yes - you idiot.No - Run long and hard.Nephew: DDR5, was cycling colors... machines crashes... ram turns solid white. ALL four spids now have lost XMP profiles. ALL.Run your ram as fast as it can by design, and turn OFF THE ****in RGB.
>>101968056Noctua is worth it for lifetime support and autism engineering, if you're willing to pay in that price range. Saving $30-50 on some deepcool or bequiet! premium chinkshit isn't worth it. If you don't want to pay just get a thermalright that has 90% of the performance for 1/3rd of the price.
>>101968005u mad u got told retard?
>>101967975What about Asus Z690?
>>101968184Later batches are also equally good but beware 12th gen launch year (2021) Asus z690 motherboards, those have a serious defect with ram overclocking which limits them to 5600-6000mt/s max stable
>>101968159lifetime support????????????????????????the fuck do you need support for???????????????????????? their fans??????????????????????????????????it's literally a chunk of metal with two 120mm fan on it. the fan is busted just buy a second fan once it happensholy shit, that is literally the stupidest reason i heard for people going with a noctua cooler
>>101968159it's not $30-50, it's $80-$100, Noctua is overpriced, especially when you consider you can get an Arctic Liquid 3 AIO for the same price as a D15
>>101968219aio has expiry date thonot to defend noctua, fan noise is a meme like rgb and their coolers are scam prices. just put your computer under your desk and you wont hear it retards
>>101968210noctuafags are whales and try to get other people to buy into the brand to justify their own purchase
>>101968210Noctua will mail you out free adapters for platform changes for like a decade and won't dump trash on the market like the Assassin IV with its fan resonance issue.>>101968219>AIOtop tier retard.>>101968234I actually chose a phantom spirit over the the d15 g2 for my newest build since noctua are tards and their fans are incompatible with modern DIMM sizes.
Any corsair case that is good and cheap?
>>101968249>Noctua will mail you out free adapters all cooler manufacturers offer that >top tier retardthat would be you noctuafags paying four times a product value
>>101968249>Noctua will mail you out free adapters for platform changes for like a decadeAnd how often does this happen? Every 5 years? 3? Not only that, how expensive are those adapters anyways?Let's say you need an adapter change every 4 years and it costs $30 for it. You would need to use the same cooler for 12 years before you get your money's worth.lmaoAnd AIOs are fine even with their limited lifespan. If it lasts for 5 years and it costs you $90? It's definitely worth it.
>>101968315The adapters are more like $10 so it's even longer
>>101968288>noctuafags paying four times a product valuet. buys chinkshit marked up 10x. Noctua needs to cut prices by about a third but you at least get some value from the higher prices. Most air coolers more expensive than a thermalright are a total scam that would be outperformed by a single fan D15 G1 setup.>>101968315>You would need to use the same cooler for 12 years before you get your money's worthYeah, that's called quality engineering. You shouldn't need to ever replace your cooler if you stay roughly within the same TDP. Anyone who buys a new cooler because it cools by an extra degree in some controlled GN benchmark is a tard.>AIOs are fine even with their limited lifespanThe problem with liquid cooling is the rest of your PC getting destroyed with a leak.

Is there something that can be implemented for a PC that works like a notebook battery for emergencies?Mostly for blackouts, I hate when my PC turns off suddenly. Wish I had like 15s to block it or something.
>>101968458Yes, it's called an uninterruptable power supply or UPS
>>101968046yeah prices here are fucked im gonna move os as soon as possible its a shithole
8700G successor when
>>101968458UPSinvest into a good one because some UPS will fuck up your power supply
>>101968357Anon, CPU advances and won't be the same TDP 12 years from now. And it's not quality engineering because it's literally a radiator with a fan. If a fan lasts 12 years without the bearings wearing out I'll be surprised.As for AIOs the pumps fail first before it even leaks.
Anyone else here HATE seeing pc interiors? To me they're like intestines, a reddit fad. A nice, clean case without glass is much better.
>>101967765Can confirm. Have two kits of g skill 3200. One is pair is humid chips, the other pair is Samsung. Same timings and haven't had any issues in 5 years.
>>101968505>noctua fan fails OH BOY I GET TO SPEND $100 ON TWO FANS
>>101968501>>101968465Thanks lads. Any recommendations for something basic?
>>101967799i run my PC in a camper off a battery while fucking your mother
>>101968530APC, Tripplight, CyberPowerAs long as it's sine wave
>>101968505>CPU advances and won't be the same TDP 12 years from nowEven a thermalright can handle a 200W TDP and I doubt that 12 years from now, there will be more than 16 physical cores per chiplet even in an enthusiast grade cpu. I don't see any reason to believe that a nock tuah or any other well engineered cooler couldn't last a decade in a consumer PC.
>>101968529When you consider 120mm fans are as cheap as $4, you are retarded for buying Noctua.But hey, it's your money. If you are not going to listen to advice then why even post your build? Go buy whatever you want to buy. I ain't stopping you, what I will do is just call you retarded.

Alright, I’ve narrowed down memory picks to this: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/. Got the Taichi for $270 at Microcenter and now I just need to get some RAM compatible with it. According to the QVL the Kingston and Team sticks are supported (Hynix A-Die and M-Die respectively) but the G.Skill kit is a wild cars: the vendor says it works but ASRock doesn’t have it listed. Am I fine to go for the cheapest set or is there a major difference between the dies that I should be aware of?

>>101969434Intel would love this naming scheme
>>101969456It will expose their tricks if they ever try to refresh that cpu as a new "gen"
I recommend using letters for sockets.And, I think we can come up with our own naming scheme.I suggest the first letter is the company. So the first letter is either a or i.the next is a number. it's the year of release, in 2 digits.next is the socket. we can use letters. after the 25th, we'll switch from lower case to upper.next is the number of cores, total, without any indication of quality etc. it is a number padded by zeros, and is 10 digits long, for future-proofing....0000000004 is a 4 core cpu.we finish with memory type, designated by letter in the fashion previously indicated.the ending is list price, and this time we use 100 digits, padded by zeros, to harris-proof the convention.00000 00000 00000 0000000000 00000 00000 0000000000 00000 00000 0000000000 00000 00000 0000000000 00000 00000 00350to indicate $350 msrp (spaces should be removed, I added for clarity)
>>101969467They could just refer to the socket by its letter for the refresh V2-6p8k, it's a whole different sku

>>101969878>>101969860What server do you run? I bought 3 old core 2 duo computers for running my server, it worked well, but no ecc, I took it down because I wanted a test cluster of 3 more systems, which I didn't want to spend at that time. Anyways, I'm planning to get just one single proper computer for server. >The average user doesn't even need ECC.Blasphemy.

Inside a Fractal Design Define 7 XL. Quadro P4000 for Jellyfin, a 8i SAS HBA but only using 22 HDD, 19 raw storage with 3 parity. Last two slots are kept empty when I need to swap out a HDD. And a 10GbE NIC.I might need to upgrade soon. X12 is going EOL soon and Xeon E3-1200 v6 and v5 are already EOL. But I'm in no rush. It's expensive to upgrade. Only thing I really want is rather than UDIMM I wanted to use RDIMM but RDIMM Supermicro boards are expensive.

>>101967652nice, thanks for the infoim hyped for ARL
>>101971164It's more of an aesthetic issue. I was choosing between the Air 903 base/max. The max comes with an extra fan and has ARGB, but the problem is that the fans on the 903 max are white. I think it really worsens the design if I want to turn off the RGB. What do you think?
>>101971257Of course it is dirty as hell, membrane keyboard's users are real swines. There are no exceptions.
>>101971172Yes looks excellent. The only things I'd reconsider are the RAM and mobo but those are nitpicks. If you built it as-is it'd run very well.
>>101971265 I'd take the black one and buy a random black fan additionally,
Is 4080 even enough for 4k?
>>101971265nta but I think you're getting lost in the weeds. If you care about aesthetics then buy the one you like the look of more. If not, buy the cheaper one. They both have enough fans so don't sweat that.

At least for RT - full PT will be a stretch but to be fair even the 4090 struggles with that.>I don't think it will survive for 5 yearsAgreed but, again, no card on the market today will do that. Meaning you'll have to decide if it's better to buy a 4090 now and reduce your demands over time or do a mid-cycle card upgrade.
Looking to upgrade my monitor. Since desk space is limited and I sadly have no space for 2x27" I'm considering a 34" ultrawide.Use case is mostly programming (work and personal), music production (Reaper, VCV Rack) and some gaming, although I do that more on my TV. GPU is a RTX4070.Been eyeing the Gigabyte M34WQ for a while. 34" 3440x1440p 144Hz flat IPS with KVM so I can hook up my work laptop easily.Currently at €439 where I live.Don't think I can get a curved non-VA ultrawide at this price, can I?Any better alternatives?
>>101971425unironically rx 580, insanely cheap for the perfomance, if ur not gaming it will work perfectly fine with 4k, 3 hdmi ports, 1 dp port and 1 dvi porttho idk if it will last 10 years but its like 60$ will last at least 5-6 years if it hasnt been mined on
>>101971426>PT will be the futureyeah, in 5 generations if we are lucky, we are nearing 2nm node dead end, GPU will reach it's limits, remember "20nm" years of suffering? multiply that x3PT is bruteforcing method, that doesn't even look that good outside showcases(look at 2077), you cna't magically make a chip that will run something like that if you run out of space for the cores, I'd rather they focused on tech like lumen from UE, hybrid approach, consoles clearly doing that

Will I finally get good at CoD?Removed the 1x16gb and this time enable XMP or whatever it was called.I remember I wanted 32gb for some labs/vms I had to run, which I now don't nor will need anytime soon.Still would appreciate input about the monitor
>>101971429>no card on the market today will do thatframe gen tech seem to be improving at good pace
>>101971455>Gigabytedon't. search for something else, gigabyte tends to die randomly.
>>101971476Nice idea, I could save myself a lot of monies, it costs like 100bux new here, I was planning to get 7800xt with is like 500 to 600bux. I might as well save some monies.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rHxhbLUSA, soft budget $1,500; hard budget $2k. Monitor is a 1080p 60Hz Samsung. How retarded is this build? I'm trying to upgrade from a potato PC I've had since 2014, and I'm aiming for something that can run Elden Ring and GTA V at mid to high settings. Could this do the job or is it under/overpowered? Also, is using a micro ATX motherboard in an ATX case a bad idea?
>>101971558that's severely overpowered, upgrade your monitor.
>>101971558My nigga I'm running both of those games on a 1070.
>>101971455What do you mean you don't have desk space? Why not get two monitors that have vesa mounts and a chinesium single mount dual monitor holder? It might be better than a gimmicky ultrawide.
How big of a jump will be going from Zen+ to Arrow Lake
>>101971631>>101971688After some more research, I think it's better today downgrade to a 7600 kek. Thanks for the heads up
>>101971963>to just downgradeFuck phoneposting
>>101971944Best to rethink your plan anon
>>101971525Sure but devs are already building it into their performance budgets. Software bloats to fit the hardware.
>>101972053I'm not gonna game anon

I have bought almost all of the new parts to assemble a new computer to replace my old system. The only thing left is GPU, which I am still undecided on. I live in Denmark so prices are a bit odd, but the choices are:7700 XT for about 3500 DKK7800 XT for about 4200 DKK7900 GRE for about 4900 DKKI'm playing games at 1440p, and ideally I'd like to buy a GPU that's going to last me as long as my last one did (GTX 980 from 2015). I know it's impossible to tell what will happen in future, but my understanding is that there's a fairly large jump in performance between each of these cards, so is it worth paying the bit extra today for the 7900 GRE to prolong the period it's good for. I don't play AAA slop.
>>1019720997800XT is best value, you get a 20% jump going from the 7700XT to the 7800XT but only a 10% jump going from the 7800XT to the 7900GRE.are there any 6900XT/6950XT's still available in Denmark?

>>101971558>>101971558>Also, is using a micro ATX motherboard in an ATX case a bad idea?No, it's fine. Actually makes building easier on account of the extra clearance from the extra space afforded from the "oversized" case.>>101971963>After some more research, I think it's better today downgrade to a 7600 kek. Thanks for the heads upGood move. Was still overpaying for the cooler, PSU, and NVME drive. Also that 2TB HDD is a terrible deal for $/TB, when this 6TB SKU is triple the capacity for only $3 more. Trimmed about $140 of fat off your build for no performance loss:https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3HBWN6Also with the savings under your budget please listen to >>101971631, 1080p@60Hz in 2024 is sub-bottom-of-the-barrel. There are many cheap but well-recommended 1440 high-refresh gaming monitors for available now for very little that WILL be a night and day difference in your gaming/computing experience like the ASRock PG27QFT2A & Dell G2724D both well under $200:https://pcpartpicker.com/product/vyqrxr/dell-g2724d-270-2560-x-1440-165-hz-monitor-g2724dhttps://pcpartpicker.com/product/N2cgXL/asrock-pg27qft2a-270-2560-x-1440-180-hz-monitor-pg27qft2aReviews:https://tftcentral.co.uk/reviews/asrock-phantom-gaming-pg27qft2ahttps://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/dell/g2724d

>>101972208Also that mobo you picked out already has integrated WiFi, so is there a reason you were going to a get a separarte WiFi adapter card too?

Iam considering getting a 9950X because it's great for production and decent for gaming, and i only have a laptop and an AM5 motherboard.What GPU would pair with aforementioned CPU?That being said, any resources/yt channels/advice for production related hardware?
>>101972261Level1Linux
>>101972259Make sure to include more likes to userbenchmark and gamegpu.
>>101972236I really like wifi.
>>101972099Just take the risk and get an used 3090. By far the best value you can get.
>>101972208Holy shit, thank you! I'll definitely look into those monitors, never knew that shit mattered for performance (I am retarded.)
>>101972236Nah, just forgot to take it off before I sent it.
>>101972236yeah thats why I got rid of it for the changes I made >>101972073I'm not sure if he even has that 6950XT or not which is why I included the 7800XT>upgrade from potato PC I've had since 2014
Morning, homos! I have the most retarded question the history of PC building questions. I have a NVME raid card in my current PC that I have a fuckton of games installed. I would like to move it to a new one in a couple months. Can I just unslot it from the PCI slot and move it to a new PC and Windows will recognize it, or do I have to unraid and wipe them first? It's not my OS install drive, and it's a software Raid0 config. And what's a good AM5 motherboard that supports more PCI-E lanes and bifurcation so I don't have to put my GPU in the 8x slot like an asshole. Intel looks to be my best best for that, but I don't want to buy Intel for obvious reasons.
>>101972133>are there any 6900XT/6950XT's still available in Denmark?Unfortunately not for cheaper than the 7900 GRE>>101972359>Just take the risk and get an used 3090No, how about you take the risk and an hero

>Have a fat gaymer laptop with shit tier battery life>Now need a laptop for studies>Need to lug this fat piece of shit plus brick power supply to class and all the baddies will laugh @ meI don't feel like dropping 1.3k on one of those Snapdragon elite X laptops with 25 hours of battery life just yet, but I am fucking tempted to just not to have a fat piece of shit not gonna liemight wagecuck and just drop some bands to not have to lug that fat shit because this is gonna be painfulTLDR anyone have any opinion on the HP OMNIBOOK X's?
anyone who buys a used 3090 is a retard.
>>101972859Was it the 3090 that came with built in space invaders or was that the 2000 series?
>>101972899I think that was the 2080ti, everything available used now was mined to shit during the last cryptobubble but especially the 3090s
>>101972859every week or so someone complains on guru3d or reddit that their used 3080ti or 3090 overheats like shit because the paste pumped out or the pads disintegrated.
>Poor man's questionA friend gifted me his old GTX 1660 Ti. For me it's a great upgrade from my old 1050 Ti.My cpu is a Ryzen 3 3100. I could get a second hand Ryzen 5 3600 for like 45$ or a 5600 for around $75. Is it worth upgrading the cpu for a better match with that 1660 Ti?
>>101967914I'm thinking of getting these, I agree with the RGB shit.https://www.centrecom.com.au/team-t-create-expert-64gb-2x32gb-ddr5-6000mhz-cl34-ram-blackI'm thinking of building thishttps://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/hRGmbLI might get some fans that have lighting so I can see into the case but ram and gpu with RGB is goyslop
>>101973304I'd personally take the 5600 as it would be a staggering upgrade.
>>101972859I did that, it has zero issues since I got it, I lucked out it seems. I'll probably repaste it next year, so far the thermals are great too.
>>101973304It's not worth it, no. I have a 1660S with an R5 2600. Almost nothing ever stresses the CPU whilst the GPU often reaches 100% utilisation. At this level of GPU you don't need to think much about CPU.
>>101971700Desk is 120cm wide and there's studio monitors next to screen. Can't move the studio monitors any further apart and between them would fit at most a 34" ultrawide. It is what it is.
>>101973304Maybe not for the gpu but in general tasks that 3600 is a nice upgrade for your 3100. If you can get it for 45$ I think its worth it
>>101973416>doesn't know about CPU limited games
I currently have a RTX 3060 12gig graphics card and an AMD 2600. Is this causing a bottleneck in my system where I should upgrade my CPU? I have 16 gigs of DDR4 memory and a 165hz 1080p monitorI'd prefer to keep the same motherboard, it a Gigabyte x570 AM4 socket
>>1019734995800x3d is end game for AM4.

>>101973499you could drop in a 5700X3D easily
>>101973485>doesn't know about CPU limited gamesWhat would you recommend? I like playing cyberpunk and that seems to be a cpu intensive game. What cpu would you pair with a 1660 Ti?
>>101973304>>101973571nta but for cyberpunk get the 5600 if you're poorfagmaxxing.
