I found a massive pc case with 2 560mm radiators and fans still installed at a rural southern thrift store and bought it for $50. I have no idea how they ended up there or what the previous owner was doing with them, but what components should I use to put them in my current set up? I bought a cheap blyski water block and I'm wondering where to buy the cheapest tubing, fittings, and coolant. Is the barrow stuff on aliexpress good enough? Also, is the alphacool eisball a good pump/reservoir or do I need a stronger pump with such big radiators?

Is temperature a consideration at all for nvmes when only gaming?

some nearby fan or extruded aluminum will be needed, especially if it's a drive with DRAM

i don't think so. even though my SN8100 drives run within spec when doing day to day stuff without a heatsink, i didn't like the temp spikes when disk intensive stuff like updating or installing stuff. even a simple heatsink is enough to do the job (i used generic Arctic cheap ones).

>>107733971
Use one of them as a secondary OS drive
Use one of them to stability test memory OCs (protects the main OS from data corruption).

>>107734061
I have one and would say that yes, it needs either a little airflow or some aftermarket heatsink
it's a good drive but power consumption is higher as a result

>>107734062
Can I put a heatsink at all my SSDs, even the M.2 ones?1

>>107734062
I have a smart curve fan in my bios and I heavily suspect the reason my fans shoot up during say booting up a game is because of the m2 reaching high as fuck temperature during operation.

Do I fall for the nicotroon bait and get a 9070 XT or give Jensen more money?

You could use one to RAID 1 your OS partition.
Or install one and offload your download and caches to it to reduce writing on a more important drive.

those are fine despite the fact that they try more often than not to be fashion accessories first and heatsinks second
SSDs with DRAM have like 8-9W power consumption - it's not that they need a good heatsink, but rather that they need something that does heatsinking

I understand that latency is an issue compared to their monolithic architecture, but I think that only applies if the scheduler mixes p-cores with e-cores.

>intel on linux is shit

>intel is shit
they price very competitively and you get more cores for the money. Sorry, but gayming is a low priority for me.

I already have the rest down and the price between the two isn't the issue when it comes to having a decent card. I only really play vidya despite saying i'll get a local image generator going.

>>107734266
same, but I've decided to go 32" and return if it's too big
you can get a reasonable idea of which is optimal depending on where you sit relative to the screen, but everyone knows that and that doesn't account for preference

>>107734266
a good 27" is better than a shitty 32" so spend your shekels wisely

>>107734253
If you want max performance, strap a 120mm fan next to your ram and set TREFI to 65k.

I had never thought about this, but arent new gen consoles supposed to come out this or next year? How will the manufacturers deal with the RAM shortage? Maybe our current computers will compete against new-gen consoles

Simple, really. When the 4070 was in production, there were no threats of dram shortages. Nvidia wasn't promising to cut production and raise prices. They simply sold cards in the 40 series until about 2 months before CES.

These 5K/1440P monitors are tempting, I'll have to see what CES makes of them

>>107735255
No they dont, I was there the other day, an employee told me they had 25 in stock. The website is bullshit, always call and ask.

I know it's hard to gauge since shit is rapidly changing, but, how much do you reckon a full 5080 build will cost in, say, march/april?

>>107735319
$8000

Are there any monitors with dual OLED/IPS modes?

>>107735305
I can personally vouch for the awesomeness of a 5k2k monitor... and I am considering a 5k1440 monitor for my secondary. Just a suggestion- if it's over 32", consider one with a slight curve. Even IPS or OLED, an ultrawide benefits for a little curve.

>>107735333
No

>>107735124
>5080
Isnt that bad purchase since 5070ti is just cheaper 5080 ??

>>107735333
how do you think this would work lmao

>>107735358
not if you can find it at msrp it's like $250 more with a lot of OC overhead

what made it bad deal basically all of last year was stores selling it for like $1500 totally ridiculous pricing

>>107735294
But weren't the threat of Bitcoin miners still alive and thriving during 40series production?

>>107735360
Me, especially in this environment, I'd stand pat with any current part that's working well. Save your money for the inflated prices of an unexpected PC part cost.

>>107735368
Do you think he actually got so far as to think about HOW it would work?

He just wants both, he doesn't know or care how it works.

>>107735358
the 5080 is about 15% stronger than the 5070 ti. Whether that 15% is worth the price difference or not is up to you

>>107735373
Not anywhere near the issue it was before and during the launch of the 30 series.

>>107735227
Gonna be running on 9800x3D and 5070. Estimated wattage of the system according to PCPartPicker is 544w. Won't be OCing anything. Considering of changing is because of the better Quality of the X series over it's E series. [spoiler]braided cables too[/spoiler].
>>107735375
Very fair point. Think I'll do that and just go ahead and use my RM750e

>>107735033
Why has this guy just turned into full doomer drama nexus? I used to like his videos.

>>107735373
Eth moved away from proof of work so the threat of shitcoin mining died around the time rtx40 came to market

>>107735000
Sure but, it was pre-order to ship a couple weeks from now. It will probably be fine since it's straight from Corsair, though I'm not sure why the price was decent.

>>107735380
Can't we just OC the 5070ti and shorten the performance difference between them both?

>>107735422
You can but it's also true of the 5080 which can be OC'd just as much

>>107735414
Umm... are...are you from the past? Did you miss PC building in the last 90 days?

>>107735422
cant we just OC the 5080 and increase the performance difference between them both?

sometimes I want to get an X50 it's just such a fun looking case

>>107735422
>>107735426
blackwell is already at the optimal v/f curve. you can turn them into budget 5080 or budget 4090 but that also means their power draw now sucks.

>>107735441
Wow. A whole $15 a year more in power draw.

>>107735440
First off, I think it will be a very successful, popular case. That said, personally, I find it ugly and worthy of becoming a pink Barbie doll house. But, my opinion is worthless and if you like it, you won't be alone. Go for it.

Just don't forget about the possibility of the 12vhpwr cable melting.

>>107735459
It's not just power, now the card produces substantially more heat and fan noise.

>>107735459
the more people fry their 12VHPWR the more keks for us.

>>107735319
by April RAM price could finally enter the true doom climb phase, GPUs could easily double if not more, NVMe will go further up but considering the new total it won't be that much. shits fucked, buy now, use buy now pay later 0% services. it will literally save you money, potentially thousands.

Just get to Rubin already
Just get to that node jump already

Why only get a chuckle once every six months when we can laugh at you daily?

>>107735492
so you can complain about $5,000 msrp gpus?

>>107735459
anon all these blackwell cards are power limited unless you flash your own bios or buy the expensive versions.

Reddit says that the Thermalright X47 copper + 2 exhaust fans setup is as good as using a 240mm AIO. Are they lying? I had a Noctua L9a, albeit worse than the X47, and remember it hitting 90C with the fan noise being very loud.

Is an Integrated GPU really that important for Intel CPUs?

Probably the best prediction for the next 6 months on this thread.

>>107735546
when you have boot issues because of your gpu, yes. you have no idea when you'll need the igpu and it doesn't cost that much extra. better safe than sorry. foreign concept for a lot of you retards though.

>>107734945
No, not nearly a big enough upgrade. Too much hassle for gain that's not going to be noticeable in practice. Look for a 2x upgrade on a new GPU purchase

>>107735550
for the past 3+ months I haven't had a single miss on my predictions. I don't like it.

>>107735559
I have a shitty RX 550 just laying around that I could use. Does an iGPU still matter then?

>>107735543
Thanks dude. I look forward to you jokes. They have that sad clown vibe to them.

>>107735574
What's your call on the Gabe Cube launch price? I've been calling $1400.

>>107735578
no unless there is something wrong with your pcie slots, but at that point you've got bigger issues

2026 will be the year of /pcbg/ becoming a pc building fallout shelter instead of build advice

Sandwich a 27" LCD panel on 1 one side, 27" OLED mounted on opposite side together on those spinning-hinge 2-way makeup mirror stands for quick-flip transitioning with cabled for each plugged in at bottom stand.

its all going according to plan...

>CONSOOM

the cheapest non-shit 9070 XT model at my local microcenter is $670 and the cheapest non-shit 5070 Ti model is $750. Do I go 5070 Ti?

Also is it realistic to go for a 4k monitor with a 5070 Ti + 7800x3d? I don't play the most demanding games, mainly shooters and multiplayer stuff.

>>107735584
1200 median, can go higher can go lower, 1000 should be lowest possible and anything below is just Gabe flexing and earning himself an actual sainthood, if market truly shits the bed it can theoretically reach 1.7k but at that point I feel like valve will just shut the cube down.

>>107735610
>What for? Are you just stacking?
It came with a free 2TB SSD...

>>107735626
5070ti for dlss4
4k is fine if you're not playing much AAA slop

>>107735626
if you're just /gayming/ buy the 9070 XT, you can use it with a 4k and let the monitor scale it
