reminder to build a nas.
I used the wrong screw on my air cooler, noticed it literally just before I started tightening the screws, do I need to reapply the paste since I have to unseat it? I'm talking like 2 minutes after applying.
>>107544366shouldnt matter at all. if you are worried, you can just unscrew the cooler and scoop up all of the paste and centre it on the IHS again before retightening the screws
Can compressed air damage anything inside your system?
>>107544380actual air compressor or those little gay safety ones the Euros use?
>>107544377Thanks
How overkill is the the HAVN BF360? I am sitting on a Lian Li lancool 216 but it's too "open" even with the optional dust filter and fighting dust is an uphill battle for me it seemsWas looking for a new case to, yeah, sidegrade for possibly better dust control and proper integrated anti sag gpu support would be a nice touch too.
>>107544380Air from a compressor or the one in cans?
>>107544380Just don't blow debris inside the GPU and you'll be fine
>>107544388>>107544396Either the can with the red straw thing or those handheld electric ones
>>107544417No. Unless you're using cheap electronics. The cans and electric ones don't have enough pressure to blow away and chips or capacitors in a motherboard. Again, unless you bough some chink motherboard.Just remember to jam the fans so they don't spin. If they spin too fast they generate electricity which damages whatever it's plugged into.
Im building a PC, I have an AIO cooler and not sure which mobo socket to plug it into, CPU FAN or one of the FAN PUMP sockets. Instructions are vague and google has mixed results. I have a silent loop 3 aio cooler with 2 fans on the radiator and 4 case fans. aorus elite x870 wifi 7 mobo
>>107544471The pump plugs into the pump header and the fans of the aio go on the cpu fan header.
>>107544392why not buy a h20 and do a full passive liquid cooling, no more dust
>>107544471Pump goes in the FAN_PUMP. Fans in the radiator goes in the FAN_CPU.I personally wouldn't daisy chain my radiator fans with my other fans. Just because I can control my radiator fans by itself without affecting my other exhaust fans.
>>107544484There is only one plug the manual says to plug it into the AIO header, but as I said my mobo doesn't have that
>>107544417oh the yurosissy ones are safe, just make sure you put on your EU mandated safety glasses before using.Be extra careful when using an actual air compressor, you can break stuff with that, but I think they're banned in the EU.
>>107544492>why not buy a h20 and do a full passive liquid cooling, no more dustHa that's cute, you still have to cool your ram and 12vHPWR connector even with no internal rads.
>>107544484>>107544496Thank you bros ill plug AIO into FAN PUMP, 1 radiator fan into CPU FAN and the other radiator fan into CPU OPT, 4 case fans into SYS FAN 1-4, does that seem good? Love you guys
>>107544318I think I will put another hdd into my desktop, thank you
>>107544054youre right, no Dark Tint in USA for Fractal Meshify 2 XLshit sucksyes an Amazon vendor has it but its gonna take 2 weeks and I gotta pay for shipping and vendor has 75% ratingGuess Define XL with steel side it isfuck your gay ass gamer windows
>>107544514just use an external liquid cooler, not a radiator, an actual liquid cooler that reduces temp without causing condensation
>>107544518>1 radiator fan into CPU FAN and the other radiator fan into CPU OPTThat's not what I meant. I meant don't chain your radiator fans to your other exhaust fans.Keep your 2 or 3 radiator fans daisy chain but only them. This say I can mas out my radiator fans if I need to but keep my other exhaust fans at 50% or something.
My friend wants to get give me his 4090 for 900 bucks, should I get it? The issue is it's a 3 fan and I want a small sff mini itx build.
>>107544530haha
>>107544570your friend is dumb, you are dumber
>>107544570he's giving you a $2000 gpu for only $900and sff builds are for homos
>>107544579i laugh at small form factor idiotssave that money to buy a house if you cannot afford the space
>>107544310>Lancool 207This is in the recommendations due to the cooling performance in the GamersNexus review, right? Cause I bought it recently, and the case is nice, sure, but the fans it comes with (both the front and bottom ones) are absolute trash and cause an annoying-ass howling/whining sound at idle speeds. Contacted Lian Li's customer service, still waiting for a response.
>>107544587I said 4090 not 5090.>>107544579why am I dumb and he is dumber. He just got a 5090 and is selling me this to recoup some money and I'm just getting fist picks.
>>107544570I paid more than that for mine at peak 5000 series fomoYou should give your friend more than 900, or at least some head on the side too
Yes I love itx, it lets me roast marshmallows easily
>>107544612itx is just computers on hard mode + more expensive.
>>107544612for me, it's atx
>>107544621for me, it's eatx
>>107544612>>107544618Alright explain why you guys hate itx. I just bought a 1200 psu sfx titanium, a mini itx board and got some ram, running 9800x3d.What the issue is it with you guys.Here's the pc case I'm getting btw.
>>107544632ugly ass xbox shaped case lmao
>>107544632i don't hate itx. i just stated facts. it's more difficult to built in and search for parts. it's also more expensive.
>>107544632I kinda kind the toaster shaped itx cases for having them sit on the desk, but the purpose of this one eludes me
>>107544632>What the issue is it with you guys.>advantagessmall>disadvantagesliterally everything else
>>107544640building a pc is like legos dude, not surgery.
I thinking of getting 2 5060tis for sli, thoughts?
>>107544655why?
>>107544647the IO is on the bottom, the airflow is top tier due to the tower design, looks sleek looks like an art piece rather than your typical anime fish aquarium shits. No rgb. pure black. discreet, sexy, slim.
>ryzen 5 5600>Rx 6600>B550 motherboard with wifi>650 watts PSU>16 gb ram>500gb ssd>Al brand new with warranty>650$I finally bought a new one to replace my over a decade old PC and I'm surprise how fast and smooth everything. [spoiler]Should I get windows 11[/spoiler]
>>1075446054090s are still worth $2000, you fucking moron.
>>107544660More powerful than a 5080 but also cheaper
I have a corsair 4000D, love my case and planning to put some new ssds and a new mobo, but my issue is I lost the accesories that came with the case, is there anywhere you guys reccomend for buying accesories?)
>>107544675>More powerful than a 5080It isn't. SLI throughput is lower than just one big card. Where did you even read that? lol
>>107544667Congrats anon you can use that for another decade just add more ram and storage
>>107544684Try contacting Corsair, they may provide accessories. I know Fractal does this for missing items.
Why are b650 pros non existent in the market?What the fuck is wrong with Intel?
Which oled do I get? I want 4k 32 inch
>>107544675It ain't 2010 anymore lol
>>107544650You're literally paying more for less.
>>107544650Building itx is like limiting yourself only to yellow 2x1, 2x2 and 3x2 bricks and ignoring all other options because it needs to fit some arbitrary feel good requirement
>retard hereWhy would someone buy a more expensive AIO like the NZXT Kraken or similar expensive AIO’s than the ones listed in the OP template?
>>107544814A fucking screen
>>107544816I see, thanks
>>107544814Screen lmaohonestly Noctua is gonna charge $300 too without any screen for their AiO but atleast i am gurantee quality and decade long support for it.
it's more than just a screen retardsThese expensive aio have better pumps too But sure buy that thermalright chink aio that will start rattling after 1 year and break the pump after 2
>>107544814warranty, fear of leaks, being rich, aesthetics, demand for highest performance.
>>107544597It has a screen.
>take the ram off my shitty unused laptops>???>profit
>>107544901That's what I tought, LF III still has better performance.
Is the Liquid Freezer 3 really that ass to install?
>>107544916>is a basic bitch AIO hard to installanon pls
>>107544667the spoiler has failed just like the thing it was trying to hide, take this as divine answer to your question.otherwise congratulations on your new shit for a great price
>>107544916compared to most aio it is yesfor the LF IV i really hope they change mounting solution
>>107544701>>107544928Was the price okay? GPT says its slight cheap and whats wrong with windows 11
>>107544926This, I don't know where the meme comes from. There's not even a offset mount you have to worry about anymore, it's all thought out for you on the newer revisions. >>107544916>>107544932Care to explain?>LF IVI doubt they will name it that, they had several revisions of LF III already and stick with the name, current LF III is nothing like the original.
>>107544814You get a more reliable asetek pump and you can set it's fan speed to match the coolant temps
>>107544947>and whats wrong with windows 11Nothing, same shit as 10. If you game too, stick to Windows. Look how to get genuine Enterprise edition on >>>/g/fwg/ and how to activate.
>>107544932>>107544950It's LF III because it has THREE fans.
>>107544973I get it, even though there are 2 and 1 fan models, the 360 is still the main one they always present. As I said, I doubt they would change the name.
>>107544947you got yourself a solid rig for under 700 you did good, especially considering the market situation.>what is wrong with windows 11what isn't? its to the point you can literally type this question into google and AI will spit out a paragraph worth of it
stupid waitfags
>>107544984SO true lmao
waitCHADs can't lose and can wait out any temporary price hikes
waitfagging is patience disguised as anti antisemitism
>>107544310Fuck, what a build. Not judging, it's awesome going balls deep, but to think you gain maybe around 40%-50% total performance in the real world compared to a build one step down that's Yliterally 100% cheaper. Fucking top-end price periums.
>they are literally announcing a DDR4 to DDR5 converter for ram holy fuck it's gotten that bad. What do you guys think about this?
I just finished building my pc, first startup was successfulDuring assembly I accidentally opened the AIO liquid cooler because I thought I needed to fill it, I closed it and chatgpt says it should be fine but it recommended running the liquid cooler at 100% for 10-15 mins and listening for bubbling sounds and checking for leakage. Does that seem like a good idea or a bad idea
>>107545057makes sense. if no one can buy memory. no one is going to buy a new motherboard or build a new pc.
>>107545057>2022 article
>>107544857>>107544873>>107544954So what’s the best pump that’s reliable that isn’t the most expensive?I don’t care about a screen on the damn thing when I look at my monitor 100% of the time I use my PC
>Check if AIO i am insterested in is compatible with mobo i am interested too>mobo doesn't show up in the compatible list on the AIO product pageAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>107545105the ones in the OP
>>107545105Do not purchase anything NZXTI had to RMA mine and the one they sent me after was even worse than the original one I boughtIt also failed most stress tests I use a Corsair Nautilus and there are 0 issues with it so far
>>107544626pop a boner every time eatx presents is ports but can't help but think>but what if it was even biggerHPTX may be unreasonable but that is what dreams are made for
>>107544310finally, everything is here (i didnt look at /pcbg/ once when ordering or selecting parts)are the 990 evo plus any good?
>AOC AGON PRO AG326UD>32" 4K 165Hz OLED >Only 600€ Why wouldn't I buy this?
>>107545155>amdfiltered
>>107545161prob very old gen tech
>>107545161Techspot is doing a long-term review of OLED monitors, they found out that under typical use you can expect only up to 3 years before burn-in becomes noticeableAnd guess what, 3 years is also the length of warranty for this particular model
>>107545184That's still 200 eur a year for a well specced OLED...
>>107544704>Why are b650 pros non existent in the market?you mean the arc cards? I can get a B50 shipped to my door for MSRP tomorrow and a B60 for 133% of MSRP and have it, again, tomorrow. have you considered living in the first world?
>>107545184Those tests are everything but typical use. You don't buy an OLED and have it showing the same static elements at high brightness for several hours a day. Notice how each time he points out what's been displayed all that time so you know where the burn in marks come from. It's disingenuous as shit to say that is typical use.
>>107545155curved is hilarious
>>107545234no one makes a 32"+ qhd oled displaythis is as close as ill get.
I have a 4070 super I don't use because of an upgrade. Is another GPU crisis coming so I can take profit from it or should I just sell it now?
>>107545267wait 3 months
>>107545155did they fix the constant fan noise on the 3425dw? its pretty bad on the 3423dw
>>107545068Anyone?
>>107545068>>107545323AI is right
>>107545267Yeah its coming. GPUs arent being produced as much anymore since the last 1 month because of the dram problem and readily available supply will dry up in due time, driving prices up again
>AIO_pump_header>CPU_fan_headerisn't the only difference between these two the stock fan curve in the bios?so I could just connect the pump to the fan and the fan to the pump and adjust the curve no problem.
>>107545383yes
>>107545323sure why not.running at 100% is no problem.buy maybe you will have to move around the rad or pump to get the air move into the rad.but try it just with the 100% first before moving it around.
>B850 GAMING X WIFI6E vs. MSI PRO B850-P WIFI for a 7800X3D with a possible upgrade to ryzen 9/10 in the future? I like the look and the two usb c connections of the msi more but I heard more positive things about the gigabyte. also open to other suggestions >>107544366I'd do it just for the peace of mind but I doubt it makes a difference
>>107545455the gaming x is better and it will support zen6. zen7 might or might not be on am5, remains to be seen
>>107545270>>107545374Alright I'll become rich thanks
>White LED on mobo stays onIt happens when starting the PC with the monitor off and starting when the cable isn't connected to the monitor but it also happens when no cable is inserted into the GPU.When the monitor is connected and turned on there's no white LED but since it also lights up when I start without anything connected to the GPU which it didn't do before, should I be worried?
anyone have a superflower? Are they loud. I'm planning on getting one and the alternative is the be quiet which is $120 more.
>>107545591Who can hear psu fan noise over other case fans and noises around your house?
>>107545567>which it didn't do beforeNow that I think about it, this is incorrect, that was when I was using the iGPU without a graphics card slotted in.
>>107545369>>107545399OK thanks. Sometimes the clanker says dumb shit
I just saw this for 150euro should I get it? I'm guessing that CPU is pretty shit, any possible upgrades for it?

I think people will realize they can run their own local AI using their own hardware very soon without the help of OpenAI, and if that happens, I am going to watch it all crashing down and Altman die via firing squad.
>>107545963what do you think altman bought 40% of the world's supply of wafers of untested memory chips for
>>107545977Giving chinks the opportunity to dominate the consumer market and enforce soft power through it if Trump doesn't fucking stop sucking dick with Silicon Valley's cartel behaviour. God Altman needs to fucking die
>>107545963Like half the population can't even browse the internet without asking siri. Normalfags are not going to build their own private AI servers.
>>107544632It's fine. Some people are just more cost conscious. I have sff for my main pc and the living room one.
Is it worth upgrading a R 5 5600 to a R 7 5700mainly just use for 1080p gaming?Don't really want to have to upgrade my Mobo at the moment so wondering what my options are
>>107545727could I also swap the mobo and CPU for r7 3700x strix b450-f?found those listings for 90 bucks each
What program do you use to clone OS drive?Moving from Gen 3 to new Gen 5 drive since MSI x870 tomahawk bios is a faggot that can only run it at 1x.
>>107546025I don't think normalfags are that dumb either. The laptop class will feel it once their slop devices become more expensive>b-but muh cloud computingCloud computing will never be a thing as already demostrated by the outages for the past few weeks. The Internet is too centralized and fragile to warrant such bullshit.
>>107546062no
How did I do, fellow /pcbg/ kids? My first PC. I bought the parts end of October, RAM cost me 180 EUR. So far the computer is very good, very fast. I do not play games but tested it with some popular new games I bought from Steam and also Diablo 4 because I used to play Diablo 2 more than 20 years ago. They run very good at 100fps (vsync enabled on my 1080p 100hz monitor) at max settings
>>107544310with these high ram prices can we expect every single other component to also rise in price?
>>107546122GPUs will rise. NVMe are going extinct for like 1.5 years, HDD/sata SSD, laptops will double in price, same for consoles & phones especially the ones with decent storage.consumer shithole is about to be gaped and wrecked, if you think its bad now, oh boy.
>>107546062You won't see any difference.Only possible CPU upgrade is 5800x3d but that's also marginal unless you play the autism games (4x, factorio etc.)Save for whole set of CPU MOBO RAM or just get new GPU.
How is the shortage going to affect 60 series?6070 Ti will be $1200+ for 24 GB, or are they gonna keep it at 16 GB for lower price?Should I buy 5070 Ti now or just hope for the best.
>>107546113Seems like massive overkill if you don't game or use local AI
>>107546062x3d is the only real upgrade from 5600.But you'll need to compare prices against a basic am5 build to see if that would be worth.>>107546113Looks like a solid build.How much power does the system use when you're pushing it?>>107546255>Should I buy 5070 Ti nowI wouldn't expect any relief in 2025.If what you have won't last you through, then I'd consider buying now.
>>107546255>lower pricelol lmao>how it will affectdelayed, overpriced. best time to buy GPU's was on the recent black friday, today is second best time. they are still on average a good 100$ cheaper than they were for the last 3 years and it is still possible to get an even better deal.
>>107545018>tranime poster>cannot math100% cheaper is free you retard
>nvidia dropping out of the personal computing market in favor of AI datacenters>amd shitting the bedIt's our time, Arcists.
>>107546302>Should I buy 5070 Ti nowI wouldn't expect any relief in 2025.If what you have won't last you through, then I'd consider buying now.3080 12GB is still chugging along.>>107546315you can still find 5070Ti for 14% off MSRP and 5080 10% off. I thought about getting 5090, assuming it will hold the value well just like 4090 did, but I don't need something so powerful and expensive for gaming, especially when there's no good triple goy games coming out.
>>107546255You buy it now you use it now.You buy it later you use it later

>>107546171.....i think i have to do some xmas shopping
>>107546424It comes down to your needs, wants and budget. Market swindling is expected to last for about 5 years, if you are planing to upgrade during that period you are guaranteed to pay more than if you did it today and depending on your needs it might be fine to take that route for a bigger performance boost, upgrading right before the new gen always feels retarded even when its not.
>>107543263he most likely is lol>>107543266>what fucking retarded resolutiom is thatslightly bigger 720p and it's not stretched, it's about the biggest window you can fit on a 1080p screen without covering everything elsehe likes multitasking yet refuses to buy a bigger resolution monitor, so he uses everything in a tiny window>>107543276I think his PC cost a decent bit of coin 4 years ago. It was easily capable of 1440p gaming back in 2021, he just refuses to. He's also Swiss so decidedly NOT a poorfag.I think he might have the type of autism that likes consistency and schedule and despises change and progress on a personal level.

I have 32GB of DDR5 SODIMM RAM from my laptop because I upgraded it before all this. I'm thinking of buying a Minisforum BD790i X3D motherboard and putting those 32GB in it (I would put the original 16GB back in my laptop) to build an ITX system with a Fractal Design Terra case and an RTX 5080 that I recently bought (€1000).

Did I fuck up not buying this Chieftec big tower for $25 when I had the chance?
>>107546710I only hesitated because of 96mm fans when I am a sucker for big fans.
>>107546710no
>>107546665>>107546683Yes, but since that motherboard has a 7945hx3d which comes with its 3D cache, it compensates somewhat, although my current desktop PC is a 12700F with 32GB of RAM, so I suppose it could last a while longer.
Damn bros, if you wanna build a PC, with the current prices due to AI, is getting a meme gaming laptop not such a bad deal now?
>>107546751no

>>107546489In English, doc?
>>107546697>>107546707I want 1080p nativeYes I'm sure
>>107546754>>107546773>>107546781Actually I could just get a prebuilt at this point with how much a gaming laptop costs
>>107544926>ekwyou are despicable
>>107546851better but still shit, prebuilts are made to make money and they intentionally cut corners to do so, depending on which corner they chose and luck you can get a good deal.
is that 20c delta fine or should i repaste
>>107546852Is Corsair still the best motherboard around?
>>107546851hey man, prebuilt is the way to go with all this shit's happening now. just do it quickly before they superjack them as well
>>107546639Those mobile x3ds are pretty slow right? Strict power limits gimps the clockspeeds and makes it perform like last last gen stuff
what are my options?
>>107546876what gpu?
>>1075469339070 xt
>>107546876What card? 10c is generally considered the breaking point for normal.
>>107546938switch to intel arc
>>107546927Clean just a little, what's outside the IHS, or simply clean everything and reapply less thermal paste.
>>107546938repaste but you shouldnt have to. get a model with ptm7950 or return it.
>>107546876I think it's normal. I don't think AMD is good for hotspots or something like that. Ideally, it shouldn't be more than 15°C, but that won't damage your GPU.
>>107546949how do i get the paste under the sam out?
>>107546927Oh man wtf
>>107546956these models come with 7950 by default tho i did buy this at launch where a lot of the initial batches ran hot>>107546961ye it never goes that crazy on less intensive shit i play
>>107546961https://www.techpowerup.com/review/asrock-radeon-rx-9070-xt-monster-hunter-wilds-edition/35.htmlgpu core should be at 50-60c range not near 80c.
>>107546965Did it fall into the socket? Use plenty of isopropyl alcohol spray until all the thermal paste is removed. If it's only on the outside, don't worry, it's not conductive and won't affect anything (although too much thermal paste does the opposite of what you want, which is to cool it).
>>107546878No, but Corsair is a premium brand. Elite and rich people like it. I have the memory of this company, it is excellent
>Samsung to halt Sata drive productionFUUUCCCKKKKK. I'm out of M.2 slots and this year there is less than 10 2tb Sata drives for sale and half of them are incredibly overpriced (price of 4tb NVME drive) and other half are dramless QLC drives that cost the same as a TLC NVME drive with dram.I guess in 4 years when ram prices go normal I can get a YMTC Chinese Sata drive.
>>107547000can you be elite and poor
>>107546985Those tests are done on an open test bench, not in a PC case, so they'll never be real-world temperatures. In that case, change the thermal paste and undervolt. Honestly, I think those are normal temperatures. You should only worry when the hotspot reaches 115°C and starts thermal throttling.
>>107546927Because of the thermal paste on the processor that covers the marking, only Baba Vanga can find out what kind of processor you have. it would be better if you posted the name of the motherboard and the name of CPU obtained through AIDA64.

>>107547021They use a regular ATX case for the test.Again its winter season. It's cold right now. 50-60c should be your GPU right now. Mines is 30C just at idle the fans aren't even on. If I play a light game the fans still wont turn on either. 80c during winter just for edge temp is very high.
>>107547034buy more ssd
>>107547034separately you'll be buttfucked by ram alone. prebuilt's fine, my 6600/5700X rig totaled round the $700 mark too
>>107547016sure, just steal
>>107547016It happens. Mathematician Grigory Perelman can. By the way, the fact that Corsair is a premium brand does not mean that Corsair memory modules are not available to the poor. It's just that the poor don't use DDR5, but for example use DDR3.
Buying pre builts and stealing heir ram is still be best get rich quick scheme, but its getting more popular do it while you can
>>107547044How are you so sure of that? What cases are you using and how is the fan of your case? If you're so scared, just replace it then, That won't take you more than 10 minutes. I honestly don't think you'll see a difference; it's not a temperature that will damage or shorten its lifespan. Honestly, current chips are too robust. You can also always undervolt; the RX 7000 and 9000 series have good undervolting headroom.

I just had an epiphany, why not make pc components water proof so we can use negative air on them?
>>107547096also You can also modify the fan curve; it may need some adjustment.
>>107547076Corsair sticks cost a premium, yes, and they also don't know how to bin as well as g.skill so it's a trap for the more money than brains kind of customer
>>107547059>>107547062The only caveat is that this shit is gonna look zesty as hell lmfaooooo
>>107547131Because it's expensive, you can make it waterproof with certain chemicals but I don't know what the long-term effects will be.
>>107547152would
>>107547121>once prices dropi have bad news
>>107547156In 2028 (2 years) prices will fall, and with any hardware you have now from 2021 onwards, you'll be more than covered for those 2 years.

>>107547179Holy shit anon, I just realized the one in this prebuilt is probably not the XT version, is this shit still worth it? Probably since I'll be able to salvage the ram in the future?
>>107547306I got my PC on installments and will pay ~175 euro extra on top of my ~1400 euro PC over the 12 monthly payments.For comparison the same exact configuration right now costs 1800 euro. The only part that has gotten slightly cheaper over the last couple of months is the GPU going down by 25 bucks kekI was concerned initially, but now I definitely know I made the right choice by boughting asap and not waiting 2-3 more months to save up money. I got it at the end of August.
>>107547140uh looks like u were talkin to someone else but i set -50mv and -20pl in the meantime and now my pc doesn't sound like a jet engine, might still look into repasting in the meantime but so far it feels smoother than earlier for some reason

>>107547264Actually, the opposite direction, works well too, fuck pussy with a cock, and licking pussy with your tongue is also beneficial and gives extra money. This is especially profitable if you are a regular member of / fit/ and you have a BBC or BWC. If your country is regularly at war, some of the men soldiers suffer losses and die, and women are experiencing a lack of love and the cock in pussy.

I'm the anon who is gonna buy the pink shit >>107547152 I'm watching benchmarks and stuff, and looks like a lot of games nowadays need over 24gb of ram?!?!? And a lot of VRAM too?!? Wtf is going on I'm starting to feel lucky I'm gonna buy this gay PC just for the 32gb of ram alone, and just swap some stuff like the GPU later
>>107547746so I should just spend the extra 30 bucks to get like a 990 evo just in case? And maybe for future proofing if I end upgrading to an actual modern mobo instead of sitting on AM4 for another decade
Hey /pcbg/, I currently have 16GB ram (x2 8GB chips). They're TeamGroup T-Force Vulcan Z, DDR4, 3600MHz, CL18, 1.35 volts. I want to upgrade to 32GB before the prices for these get too shitty, and I don't mind sticking with DDR4.There's a place selling the same pair, but I also found another shop selling the TeamGroup T-Force Delta RGB, with the exact same specs, but at a lower price. Can I "mix" these two models, since they have the specs are the same, or is there some more internal thing that isn't listed in the specs but might cause weird issues between them?I don't have any fans above the RAM sticks, so the RGB ones being taller than the ones I have right now isn't an issue.
>>1075478483600cl18 is achievable by many different types of memory chips so its a gamble on what you'll get and whether or not you'll be stable mixing two kits

>>107547922Why is DDR5 so shit. How much faster is DDR5 vs DDR4 realistically. The overall speed looks faster, but the timings suck.

I have the m27p6 for games where I know burn in will be an issue, and an aw3225wf for movies and movie games. All the tandem oleds are bad. Either get any of the qd-oleds or wait for cds to see what’s on the horizon. We might be getting 5k 240hz true black 500 oleds early next year.

Why is the rtx 3050 6gb version a thing
>>107548155I just went to some shops and honestly the difference between miniled and oled TVs were really not that big. Unless the screen contained lots of black or dark elements, there wasn't that much of a difference. My KTC definitely has blooming issues though. Fuck why isn't the screen issues already solved, it's 20 fucking 25!
>>107548280Scamming poors and low iqs. Same reason why the 5060 exist
>>107547336>not the XTThe card showcased in the Random Gaming in HD video was the non-xt version >>107547211>is this shit still worth itReally depends what else is available where in your region and how much it costs.
Usecase for a GPU more powerful than a 3060 Ti?
>>107548286>bloomingNot really an issue unless you are using hdr and local dimming on the desktop for whatever reason or you’re sitting there watching local dimming algo check videos on YouTube or whatever. Blooming will always exist on mini leds until the number of dimming zones = the number of pixels.
>>107547726Not really. Only really matters for the endurance. Speed wise basically any gen 3 or newer drive will cap out at PCIE 2.0. I guess like the other anon said the power draw might matter a bit. But funnily enough the cheapest SSD's tend to draw less than some of the more expensive ones. Like when I upgraded my laptops storage to a 970 evo plus that thing got hot as hell so much so that it caused the plastic to crack, which is why I refuse to upgrade my laptop's ssd's in the future and just get a big enough drive when I buy one.
>>107548326I'm still looking around and I actually found something a tiny bit more decent I'm watching benchmarks, and looks like a lot of the graphics cards nowadays are decent, but most of them have 8gb of VRAM and that holds them back so unbelievably hard, if I manage to find a prebuilt with a gpu with 12 gb of VRAM or more, I'm probably getting it
>>107544310>DDR5: 2x16GB or 2x24GB, 6000CL30 (AM5), 6400CL32 (LGA 1700)considering the shortage, is the extra money (generally 200 more) for CL30 worth compared to CL36?
>>107548398yes
>>107548080>ddr32.4$ on a good day>>107548120I thought he was talking about DDR4, even with DDR4 it is still better to go 2x16 rather than 4x8
>>107548398If it's $200 more then no.
>>107547741>deepcool ch260It's not unusual for it to get that hot; your CPU fan is probably in a bad position. Although the undervolting you did seems to have improved the temperature, when summer comes, change the thermal paste for a higher-performance one and use quality thermal pads. Even so, as I mentioned, the worrying hotspot is anything above 105°C, which usually causes thermal throttling at that point.

>buying garbage because the price is lowAt that price just get a new steamdeck
I've been looking for a new monitor, built a new PC a few months ago and a lot of 27 inch 4k 160hz Mini-LED ones are coming out now. I'll be doing half work and gaming on it.The only concern for me is that basically none of them with those specs come with DisplayPort 2.1 except one, but it isn't sold in the US yet. Never had a monitor with DSC, so should I wait for one that won't use DSC to come out or is DSC not that bad?Also is there anything else coming out that may be worth waiting for instead?
>>107548450>>107548443For you bby. In the long run you’ll be wasting more money trying to upgrade that junk. Save up and get a real computer or just get the steamdeck like I said before.
>>107548421i can only do so much
>>107545229No rtings is doing that testTechspot/HUB is using them normally and finding out these resultsit doesn't matter anywayoledfags swap their monitors within 3 years already they don't hand onto them for 10+ years
>>107548398>s the extra money (generally 200 more) for CL30 worth compared to CL36?No, unless a 2 percent uplift is worth $200.
>>107548458DSC is “visually” losless aka you will literally NEVER be able to tell the difference between DSC on vs off. It makes no difference. The only thing that should make you want a DP 2.1 monitor is if it has a resolution that is not supported by DP 1.4.
>>107548347I do use local dimming and hdr for triple a games and movies, yes. It's why I'm in search for a second oled screen. Local dimming is quite good but not perfect.

>>107548492>It makes no differenceonly as long as you don't have an rtx4000 gpu with a hardware DSC bug causing black screening
>>107548537just use discrete asus power? even the 5090 matrix has it
>>107548537Okay that makes a lot of sense now, but you can't possibly use these for modern games, the VRAM usage is gonna be capped out all the time
>>107548546okay i'll just use the 5090
>>107548146This is a genuine one.
>>107548540Had a 4090 and now 5090 I have never experienced the DSc black screen you speak of. It’s usually caused by bad cables, bad monitor firmware, or dwm.

Current plan is 500+ giga datacenters a year until 2030, right now USA alone has at least 4100+ fully operational datacenters with another 8000 scattered through the rest of the globe, by the time the new batch is built all these old datacenters will go through at least one hardware cycle, potentially two, meaning they will have to fully restock their RAM and SSDs, don't forget that they destroy literally shred all the old shit and scrape the rare earths out. And in another 5 years they will need to restock again...Do you understand now? For a wafer manufacturers consumer market no longer exists. it is a 0.02% market that for some fucking reason takes 2 buildings that could be used for AI manufacturing instead. Best part? They PHYSICALLY CANNOT OVERPRODUCE FOR THEM Which is why consumer market was taken out, given a shovel and was told to dig.
I bought a bottle of rodent attractant. I have it sealed, and in a baggy, but when the barametric pressure drops, it releases mouse urine smells. It's like how I know it's hot because it hydrates my crotch so it smells like a dead animal.
>>107545727yeah it is a no brainer at that price, shit is super cheap like suspiciously so, was it stolen?
>>107549104Wtf
im gonna goon so damn fucking hard once i get my gaming PC
there's a deal for LG 27GS95QE-Byay or nay? I have never used OLED in my life
>>107548989>>107549050>>107549112I mean, that CPU looks like DOGSHIT. its worse than what I had 10 years ago.also it is in a case.I'm just not sure I can run games I actually want to play on it.and I'm not sure I can upgrade it in any meaningful way either without replacing the mobois it still worth it.
>>107549200nvm anyway, guy increased the price to 350, maybe he made a mistake.
>>107549200In that case I'd just save myself the headache and forgot about it, unless you have a friend who needs all these
>>107549185a qdoled is probably cheaper and look better at the same specshttps://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/lg/27gs95qe-blook if u wanna cope with the subpixel arrangement + matte coating
how bad is 8gb vram exactly?how bad is 6?all the used laptops I find for the price in willing to pay for a laptop have 6gb
>>107549061Eh maybe that's true and the writing is on the wall but the only confirmation we've gotten so far is that they've axed the crucial side business and not yet fully exited out of consumer dram. And at least for Samsung, they're reprioritising dram over hbm in 2026 because of how insanely profitable dram has gotten in the last month.
>>107549245for WHAT
>>107549245If it's on a laptop it doesn't matter since they can't play games anyway.
>>107549200my guy 16gb of ddr4 + 1tb ssd > 150 usd by like 100$you get a PSU, mobo, 8gb DDR6 nivida card, PC case and a CPU for free. literally go check this GPU price on PC parts picker. you can immediately flip this thing for 500+
When will the 265k go on sale? Since no one can afford RAM and the intel boards are dirt cheap, one would assume the core ultra would be almost free.
>>107549266gaming? what else could it be for
>>107549245Tell us how much are you willing to spend, maybe we can pick some parts and make something way better if you're willing to settle for a desktop
>>107549338like, $400
>>107549361The ram prices are gonna be the biggest issueCan you get used parts easily where you live?
>>107549361You can get older laptops with 16gb of ram for $200.
>>107549328Weren't they giving it away at i5 245k/14600k prices just last month
How bad is ddr5 2300mhz?
>>107549419we are entering the obsession-panic part of the ram cycle.
>>107549245>be me on laptop>6gb vram>texture settings: lowgood for old games, doa for new games
>>107544310I have old DDR4 32GB x4 RAM kit, how much I can sell it for?
>>107549265See another thing here is contracts, these deals with AIfucks are not made per X sets of RAM, they are made per wafer. So depending on those contracts there is a good chance that wafer manufacturers got an even better deal by fully abandoning consumer markets and leveraging that fact into the contract risks during the negotiations.It makes perfect sense to put a stop on a low margin depressed market if you have a massive stockpile of the goods this market wants, which is exactly the situation they have.Leverage the risk during the negotiations so they get the boons or in this case paid upfront, but in reality nobody is going to set up wafer lines comparable to the ones top guys have in just 2 years, so they get to swindle the AIshits while twisting consumer's balls into a pretzel completely for free. 2 dunces clapped by one wafer.On the other end of the spectrum there could have been a completely different scenario, AIoverlords could have rolled up and just said >give us every wafer you make>we are paying x4 per wafer and we will buy all you will make >if you SOMEHOW won't agree we will go to chinks with the same offer>don't worry we will be nice to your widows after the funeralsMicron wouldn't even need the other half immediately going "SIR YES SIR".Cartel or not this scenario would drive them to shit, piss and then start signing everything very very fast. Regardless of what happened behind the scenes we know the outcome. AI guys get every wafer, wafer manufactures get paid premium mula upfront, OEM gets pissed in the face, phones get pissed in the face, everyone who is not AI gets pissed in the face and consumer dog gets taken out behind the barn.
>>107549488do you know how to search ebay? look at "sold" listings. or "completed" so you can see also what didn't sell.
>Build in July>Reused PSU, mobo, and ram>MFW the total cost now has jumped $800https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4M3mwY
>>107548557TPU has a better pure image. The fake one has:>wrong components sticking out from under heat spreader>wrong text position, too close to the top>wrong font, also inconsistent thickness>missing final code letter at bottom>QR code not enough dots for the data, hence invalid>subtle but top and bottom IHS legs are a little thin
>>107549526Oops.
>>107549520So you have money for custom cables, rgb fans but not enough for a nvidia gpu, seriously?
>Bought an airflow scoop for the front of my case>It blocks the screw holes for the fansShould I use screws instead of the noctua rubber plugs for the bottom two screws on the bottom fan or just leave them empty?
>try for $220 5060 Ti on Newegg>press BUY NOW>Newegg steps in with a "WELL ACKSUALLY" and tries to make me send the order to an address that doesn't exist>due to the deflection, bots get the cards and I miss outIf I ever meet anyone who works at Newegg, I will probably kill them with my bare hands.
>>107549598Extension cables are under $20. And the case came with 5 fans. Did you look at the build, or were you simply making assumptions from a picture?
Does anyone have any family affected by australia
>>107549618>If I ever meet anyone who works at Newegg, I will probably kill them with my bare hands.I will very likely gouge their eyes out and smash their head against the pavement until their brain no longer has a tangible material unity.
>>107549598>>107549624Also- that's not my main PC. Main is on the left. 4080 Super, currently
>>107549419The cheapest I've seen the 265k go for is $250.
>>107549652why 3 pcs, how is the third one being controlled? How the fuck are you trusting those flimsy tables with those 2 tvs
>>107549652>barely any space for mouse + keyboard>tables too low>no space for legsdo you even use these? or are they just storage boxes?

> anus tuf 4090> 1600 bucks deal> after use in rendering videos and dicksworth a try? I had a 4080 asus tuf fucker and it's coil whine made me fucking sell itI'm fucking about to erupt from different sources saying whines are GPU related / PSU related, what's the /pcbg/ take on this? Strategy of returning a new PSU until you find that one your GPU is okay to bread is 100% better, so give me hope anon

>>107549687Left PC is main PC used for productivity and some gaming. Middle is going to be sold. Right was built when i7 PC was degrading. Used now for content while working with left PC. Left monitor is a 5k2k ultrawide with KVM switching. Meaning a single USB and video cable to monitor, each, and all peripherals plug into monitor. I hit Alt+2 and switch between the PCs. And, the desk (not tables) is rated at 300 pounds. I think I'm good.
>>107549753I keep waiting for someone from LTT to appear at my front door, to manage my cables. Maybe they'll show up today.
I overestimated how much buying into a platform was before when it was cheaplarger size ssds were cheap, ram was cheapI should have just gotten for the price performance parts (except cpu) and gotten a desktop running and could have worried about the gpu laterbut ah now I remember why I did not even have any display which was fomoing me into buying some shit which is why I did not build.... ah It all makes sense nowno monitor literally fomoed me out of buying.. brutalI could have kept my old ass 24" va 60hz with a hdmi output but I was literally too cheap to buy a hdmi cableI have officially reached insanity tiernow I have to spend money into non essentials that give no performance and only serve to cuck me into spending more money (ssd and ram) as I bleed money
>>107549788yeah, pool noodles cost $10,000 each and duct tape is $1,000,000 per roll.
>>107549740all gpus have coil whine
>>107549819only amds have coil wine.
>>107549817I'm just lazy. I have all the stuff to manage my cables. I just can't be arsed to get it started. I'll be meticulous building a PC and make it look great. I just never get the oomf to get everything behind the desk done properly.
>>107549807>I was literally too cheap to buy a hdmi cablePoor people making shitty decisions, tale as old as time.Just like the entitled poor/frugal bros expecting DDR5 memory prices to magically match DDR4's.>$80~90 32GB AM5 sweet spot kit was available for over 2 years>'Waiting™ for them to cost $50~60'>Same kit costs over $300 now>'OMG GUYS DO I HAVE TO BUY NOW BEFORE I'M ABSOLUTELY PRICED OUT OF THIS HOBBY?!!!'
>>107549859>I'mnothing
>>107549880>chartwowHonestly, don't do computing stuff. Just back away and spend on anything else.That's what I did during covid & the gpu tardation
>>107546113>memory for AMDwtf? there is ram just for AMD cpus?
>>107549880I gave my decade old screen away, still functionalkek
>>107550126The overclocking settings it comes with are for amd.If you want to overclock it on intel you'll have to do that manually.
>>107549338depends to price performance. I guess 500 euro if its goodI'll still need to get a monitor
>>107549383yes>>107549405ram isn't the problem, cou and GPU are, and cram, which is why I asked
>>107550299>ram isn't the problemIt sounds like you have no problems.
>>107549880>>$80~90 32Glmao
>>107549880Has it occurred to you that zoomers are on the same level as Eastern European pensioners and that spending money is maddening after COVID? Of course peoplw will wait if computers are not the center of their world.
>>107549880Why would DDR5 not match DDR4?
>>107550310I do?
>>107547640It really is that simple. They're betting on you missing that payment and being forced to pay fees, if you make the payments then they lose.
>>107549832my 3080 disagree with that statement
>>107550338Zoomers aren't entitled to DDR5 PCs if they can't afford one.There were 32GB DDR4 3600MT/s kits being sold at under $50.Zoomers are not above flipping burgers.
>>107550462is it FINE wine?in all seriousness, I can't hear the whine on my xtx 6950xt
