Do you prefer aio or air coolers and why?

small form factor builds are mental illness

know the signs:
- susceptibility to youtuber shilling
- hotbox pc normalised 'muh 10L build'
- unjustifiably expensive components
- limited expansion possibilities compared to cheaper builds
- cramped motherboards with a single pci slot
- reduced to watercooling aio due to heat
- restricted choices of hardware compared to cheaper builds
- paying more for a case than a cpu
- reducing computers to expensive gaming consoles
- this is /g/ not /v/, we have standards

friends don't let friends build sff
it's a curable form of mental retardation

>>106370001
in my cunt cheap 360 AIOs are easier to find than those twin towers air coolers

Need a case with at least three 3"5. Any suggestions?

>>106370001
I'd go aio for better perf and less fan ramping constantly and no giant slab of steel that hang and block your entire mobo

>>106370001
Cheap aio's cost about the same but will massively outperform decent/good air coolers.
Also means no massive chunk of metal in the middle of your motherboard.

Questions:
- My understanding is that 9800x3d + 9070xt + mobo and rest gives estimated wattage around 530W, which is circa 80% of 650W (i.e. 520W). So 650W it is then? There is no reason to go higher than this?
Regarding mobos:
- motherboards draws around 100W?
- Is it SAFE to install issued AyyMD CPU to mobo and update it? Or should I rely on the CPU-less(?) update feature?
- Anyone ever used wifi 7 or even 6e? I can only think of using them to transfer huge data from / to / between NASes.
- Back-connect connector? Sounds nice on paper, but I wonder how PC cases are compatible with that?
- which AM5 chipset should I even consider? All I understand that I need 1x16 5.0 for GPU and "any rational minimum" for NVMe SSD?

You can't change a motherbaord without removing a block or radiator.

>So 650W it is then
You can't even buy a top tier PSU for this low wattage. Most start at 750w.

>>106370368
What's the difference between AIO and custom loops

>>106370345
There's a YouTube channel called GPU solutions that explains how to mod 3070s and 3080s to 16gb and 20gb respectively. You'd basically have to reconfigure some resistors on the board based on the brand and capacity of vram you're installing and it will just work afterwards.

48gb 4090s require more work since you'd need a custom clamshell memory PCB and the early leaked or a modded vbios.

With AIOSlop, you get some noisy shitty pump and all the tubing pre-connected to the rads. With a custom loop you pick out each part one by one, and then assemble it yourself. You can also cool your GPU and CPU (or memory if you an AMD madlad OC'er) on the same loop.

noob here,

Do you guys buy individual components and put them all together yourselves?

What if I know nothing about computers, what's my option to get a powerful PC? Buy one from Dell?

>>106370032
Cheap AIO’s cost roughly double what decent air coolers do for something that’s not a pathetic 120mm unit and who fucking cares anyways, an air cooler can easily cool a 200w ryzen 9. What are you even doing with an AIO on the CPU? The GPU is the only thing that needs liquid cooling these days.

yes theres thorough guides on youtube on how to put a PC together and the manuals that come with the parts are simple.

if you don't want to put it together yourself you can buy a prebuilt, many options for prebuilt PCs that are good enough for the average person or newcomers. just do your research first. you can even pay a service fee to someone to put your PC together if you buy the parts separately

>>106370459
Well yeah. 200w Ryzen 9 has 100w spread over two CCDs and is way easier to cool than 150w on a single CCD 9800x3d.

>>106370426
>Do you guys buy individual components and put them all together yourselves?
Yeah, some of us do, other people might just come here for help selecting the parts and then pay somebody to build the rig.
>What if I know nothing about computers, what's my option to get a powerful PC? Buy one from Dell?
You can buy a prebuilt, there are actually decent options out there, however be ready to pay a markup and for some of the parts not being top shelf.
Or as in my first point you can maybe tell us where do you live, whats your budget. what do you want the computer for and maybe some kind anons can help you making a list on pcpartpicker
Then you can contact a tech specialist in your area and ask his fees for putting it all together if you dont want to do it yourself; which can be daunting sure but its not that hard and its an incredible learning experience.
For reference a couple years ago i asked a couple business near me and i got quoted about 70€ for them to put the pieces together and install windows on the computer if i delivered them the components.

>>106370314
thanks. is there a way to tell whether it's playing in HDR or not?
I've got MPV so I'll definitely do that.
Just deciding between a va miniled and an ips. I don't really know what I'm looking at so I'm hoping it will help me decide. The black levels on the miniled are top tier but I'm questioning if I really even care.

What content do people watch where they want/need true deep blacks? The grey you get on an IPS doesn't really bother me.
For HDR, I'm still not sure on how it works best. Since I saturate my colours a lot, HDR looks washed out to me so I need to give it another run

Shift-I gives all sorts of info.
By the way, create a mpv.conf file and write this line: vo=gpu-next
In Windows make sure HDR is active (Win+Alt+B activates it). Now you can rest assured that it's playing in HDR.

Yeah, I'd rather just stuff and AIO in my computer and turn up the fan speed when I'm playing video games. Not like I can hear it anyway over closed headphones blasting music, explosions, and slurs.

Is there a case that can hold at least 16 3.5 hdds in the ~$100-200 range? It can be 16 bays or like 12 with 3 5.25s (I can print 3x5.25 to 4x3.5 brackets) or even just 12 5.25s, anything is fine. On pcpartpicker it shows mostly out of stock cases with a handful being in the upper 200s and 300s which is ridiculous no matter how niche it is.

>>106370902
Used or Aliexpress rackmount is probably your best bet for that many bays on the cheap. Yeah there are consumer ATX cases that can do it but, as you noted, they're not cheap. Super niche requirement so the manufacturers that do make them can charge what they want.

Here is some things I wish I would have known or do know
EK is overpriced full stop. There is no quality to be had outside of looks, their ZMT tubing is alright
HWLabs makes some of the better radiators, not overly expensive either.
Bitspower makes some of the better rotary fittings.
Most DDC and D5 pumps are all the same make between brands. Most are made by Laing/Xylem with some exceptions
Alphacool D5 pumps are knockoffs, most Chinese brand pumps that claim to be D5s are also.
DDC pumps have multiple versions, 3.2 and 4.2 are the only worthwhile ones.
Isolate your pump/reservior
Use a coolant, it's $15 for some XT nuke concentrate and $2 for a gallon of distilled water. Not worth skimping using distilled only or god forbid tap water.

That being said, don't get too caught up in perfomance differences. It's somewhat hard to ruin a loop based on component choices save for if you use extremely loud fans, but with how much radiatior space you can have you can run fans really slow.

Im gonna wait for DDR6 to come out. Theres not much performance gains between 4 and 5 to justify buying a new mother board and ram and cpu

Trumps 10% stake in intel will turn it around.

I think they really miss the point.
I had a GTX 550 TI way back in the day. it likely wasn't great value but it was the gateway drug for me.
People are naturally attracted to a low price point and I'd imagine for some it's the difference between having a decent PC and not having one if they have to shell out extra for the "better value" card. Even if $50 extra.

I guarantee you on average people are going to have more fun with their 5050s than a techtoober has in the last decade with their xx80/xx90 cards.

Actual people don't play shit like Indiana Jones that forces you to have an RT-capable GPU.

I have no idea what you mean but:
1 - The 9800X3D and 7800X3D are the best bang-for-buck CPUs on the market dedicated to gaming
2 - The 13th and 14th have become infamous because of all the instability and degradation
3 - The 12th gen were actually very good and don't suffer from any problems - they're just older and weaker, that's all.
4 - The new Ultra 200 series offer worse gaming performance than the 14th gen because of very high latencies. Intel went one step forward, one step back.

Njudea will obviously 'win' performance metrics with this refresh, it was expected they would. 9070xt will remain better value however, like it always did outside of communist shitholes like the EU with its bad pricing regulations.

Well like I said Corsair are known to change ICs without notice so matching SKUs won't guarantee stability. Especially on a 3200C16 bin which could be anything under the hood. In your situation it would probably be better, not to mention cheaper, to buy a fresh 2x16GB and sell your current one to recoup.

A timer which counts up to 16 hours of panel use, if a pixel refresh is not triggered before then a mandatory forced pixel refresh that's unskippable will forcefull turn off your monitor for 6-10 minutes until the pixel refresh is done, this is anti consumer and also gets increasingly worse with how buggy the implementation is, this will make you hate your life and oled monitors, trust me

Any manufacturer who implements this should have their engineers jump from the highest roof with no safety nets, objectively

Historically this includes aoc, Philips, HP/omen, msi (24h now) and maybe more

This is why I suggest buying monitors with no such behaviour

But if you don't trust me FAAFO

And evidently intel fucked around a lot denying it before finally admitting when shit got too big to ignore.

>>106372484
I don't think there's any bad GPUs right now
If you have a certain dollar amount and you buy the gpu to fit that dollar amount, you'll get a GPU that'll give you the expected performance for it. I think no bad products just bad prices applies to some GPUs in this generation, unfortunately on the lower end.

The only difference is if you can buy a 9070 XT at $600 you'll get a GPU that is worth more than that. And that's still $600 on a GPU.

I play new games with hardware requirements of 10 years ago

>>106373398
get the cheapest 1440p 100+ Hz monitor you can find on amazon. Use it as long as you want and then when the time comes to upgrade just set it as your 2nd monitor. I found mine for like $110 and it works flawlessly.

Hardware Unboxed and Gamers Nexus use NVIDIA in their rigs, then make their money bad mouthing them. I just get ripped off because there is no other option. I don't like it, but at least I'm not a hypocrite, telling everyone not to buy NVIDIA then use them myself.

When do they say to not buy nvidia?

>>106373630
exactly. it's better than I am for gaming and image editing.

>>106373654
they use them for video rendering.

why, they have extra money, their advice is to gaymers almost entirely.

decisions are based on balancing things out!!!! ie after everything elseis maxed maybe go for 5070ti+ (imo tho 3090 4090 5090 maybe 5080 too are all that's worthy of mention)

take your current gpu

compare to 4070 non ti

Hell, go back to the launch of the 5090 and he's complaining that he and others can't buy one.

I'm not the other guy but here's him saying to not buy Nvidia

>>106373895
its just narrative building for clicks
like sure frame gen comparisons to real frames is misleading, but then you have loads of reviewers who go "heres amd without any software features compared vs nvidia and they're real competitive" which is MORE misleading to consumers who do find value in nvidias software stack

>>106370001
Air.

It's perfectly doable to still be using an NH-D15 from 10+ years ago, and just replace the fan and asking for a new bracket when you change chipset.

AIOs, if you get 5 years out of them, that's pretty good.

>>106373895

>>106373943
>something something out of context he never lied
casual reminder "he" literally said this to defend jacket man

If every gpu reviewer did a competent job highlighting how frame gen or dlss adds value then nvidia wouldnt need to say anything
but they dont

they go "heres 1080p bench, amd number 1, nvidia number 2 buy amd ;D it's better value :) I'm a professional reviwer who is pro at running benches"

nvidia literally has to coerce them to mention frame gen for some reason

>>106369863
Hey anons, I got a question for anyone of you. About an hour or so ago. I turned off my PC to go out and do some errands. Came back and when I turned it back on. It would be on and running like normal then turn off. So what could be the problem? The PSU? I have had my current PSU for almost a decade now. What do you anons think?

>>106373978
Digital foundry kind of does that.
I also feel like ray reconstruction needs more attention, it's only officially in rtx remix mods and like 4 other releases but you can mod it into basically any ue5 game.

>>106373978
if you dont really see the issue youre beyond salvation
>ok ill pay you 5 goycoins, you can framegen/dlss the rest of the salary since you love ai so much :^)
>>106374004
youre looking it at the wrong way
why does this super high tech and expensive thechnology only gets used by glorified quake 3 mods?

>>106374004
general review outlet rankings for me is something like
tier 1: digital foundry who evangelize the leading edge in hardware and software in games to general audiences, hardware unboxed who basically set the standard for monitor reviews, rtings who do bulk reviews and allow comparisons between productgs with graphs, and... drama nexus who go above and beyond to tell you how a case design influencers noise levels

Tier 2: techpowerup, toms hardware. I dont really read them per se, but they are consistent source of good summaries and graphs. LTT videos can be useful for having a mix of competency and entertainment with decent production values for testing. Reddit user reviews. Some chinese mtl review that goes into inhumane depth on a product.

The rest:
The random reviews you find on google from gaming journos or generic tech sites tend to be laughable compared to the ones seriously pushing their specific review format. No graphs, no latency measurements, just a word count. They dont have personal investment into the product so they lack legitimacy of reddit posts.

There's dual mode. Poorfags with a bad GPU could switch to 1080p 320hz for gaming and back to 4k for other stuff. You're just severely gimping yourself for going anything under 4K. QHD value is only going down in the coming years but hey, it's your money.

so dont feel bad about it

DerBauer's a good egg, very transparent about the products he's shilling.

You already gimped yourself by not upgrading your shitty videocard. Just take the DLSS pill.

>>106373985
Check your connectors if it happens again. And if it stays dead you can jump your your PSU to see if it at least powers up.

Actually Hardcore Overclocking.
Buildzoid would have more exposure and be more financially successful if he benchmarked popular games with easy-tune settings.
His low-effort commentary on how Starfield possibly scales well from tuned memory got more views than his niche OC stuff.

>>106374213
Had to stop watching this guy when it came out that he does literal cuck shit

>>106374330
lets say you some day open up a game with no dlss support on your affordable gpu
1440p has over double the frame rate on native res than 4k
that means a playable fun experience vs frustrating experience where you have to think about when could you upgrade the gpu

who wants to think about upgrading the gpu to have fun playing videogames for years and year

QHD is a good middle ground for poor people. 4K is already becoming the new standard. It's only gonna grow so investing in a good gpu and screen will futureproof yourself for the next 10 years or so (8K is a big meme)

It's the RTL8126 which is relatively new, it was giving me this weird problem that i thought was DNS at first; it would just fail the first time I connected to things at random, like if I opened a pic here it would either not load at all or load like 1/5 and give up, then I'd have to refresh the page and it would work fine. Same thing every time I opened a new tab. Was happening on Linux and Windows with the official drivers. I thought it was a DNS issue so I changed servers but that still didn't resolve it. Dug out an old intel pcie nic from 2015 and it's working perfectly now.
