Those are all true facts. The nvidia cards that aren't discontinued are still listed for those that don't care or need cuda, it's just a warning

FUCK. The 10 and 12 core Bartlett Lake cpu's are coming but will have no consumer release and no Bios support for consumer MB's. Fucking hell I have been waiting for over year for it. And decided not to upgrade to AM5 since I already have an LGA 1700 board. I missed a ram upgrade I was going to do because of waiting.

Fuck you Intel. Seriously fuck you. I was loyal with AMD until I went with LGA 1700 instead of AM5 back in 2022. I bought AMD during the FX years and decided to give you the chance. And you fuck me like this instead. Never again. Should have never abandoned AMD. I guess I deserve that for betraying AMD.

A used 850 PSU for $80? Yeah no. That's not even good price. You cna get an 850W gold rated PSU for $80 on Black Friday's (psu's have great sales on Black Friday's). And besides right now for $75 you can get a Rosewill VMG 850W 80 plus Gold PSU.

Unless you know the guy selling the PSU, and you know the history of the system don't buy used.

No I'm just pissed. I bought LGA 1700 late 2022 instead of AM5. The Z790 motherboard also cost the same as a X670 board would have cost. But I went with Intel because I got a 12th gen i5 with the idea I would upgrade to a high end CPU later and AM5 didn't have good budget options at the time.

Well the 13th and 14th gen i7's or i9's aren't options because they like to self destruct. And I'm not gonna waste money on a 12900KS. This was my hope that I could get something good. But intel decides to screw customers. Never again.

temporary OLED image retention (ghosting) usually goes away on its own by changing content, powering off the screen to cool pixels, or running built-in pixel refreshers
>>
>>107894658
those are $150
>>
>>107894747
That's not what ghosting is usually referred to as
Could be retention considering status bar is running non stop though
Had same on AMOLED over a decade ago too
Not like the pixels are resting in that spot ever though

Depends. I'm paranoid about heat. This is a 5700x3d rig. I always overcool.
>>
>>107895018
how?
>>
>>107895028
Well I don’t think there’s much variation in performance with 240 aios. Just get it if you like it. Make sure there’s no compatibility issues with your mobo or case though.
>>
>>107895002
it's 360mm. i'm gonna have a 5090 in it so i want it to be as cool as possible. the 5090 has an extra fan (4th one, placed above the card), so if i don't use an aio, it's gonna cut the air that would go toward the cpu cooler. i can avoid using the 4th fan but i think using an aio and the 4th fan on the gpu makes sense
>>
>>107895045
No, I'm NTA. Just saying a 240 has it's uses. Sometimes it's required, sometimes just wanted for a little security. Honestly, with that case, a 240 was the limit. I would have gone 360 if it fit. Realistically, going air would have worked.

Install CPU, ram, and NVMe drives. Optionally, if you're air cooling, install that. Then. drop it into the case. Use the mobo box to work on.

>>107895213
Install case fans I assume before I drop in the mobo?

Also should I test while it's outside the case (memory etc) or wait to put inside the case bc of active airflow?

Is Noctua's pumpless AIO vaporware?

>>107895113
kind old though i was thinking i should get something with atx 3.1
>>
>>107895274
Depends on the case. The rear exhaust fans is usually last since it'll get in the way of the motherboard dropping in. Front fans if it has them *usually* can be done first but again depends on the size. Basically, you want a clear path to install the mobo. Now, if you're using an AIO... ME? I install that after the mobo is in, everything else is wired up and before the GPU.
>>
>>107895309
I'm using air cooler. Case will have front and top fans too. 140mm

>>107895294
Why release when no one is going to be building PCs very often this year? It's COVID for computers
Plus it might eat into it's G2 recent release
>>
>>107895327
Yeah, set the motherboard up, drop it in, then any fans you didn't install... like I said, front fans you can do early if there's plenty of room between them and the motherboard, wire it all up, then do the top fans... and as always, do the GPU last.

The PSU, I like to plug in all the cables I'll need, THEN install into the back of the case, and after the mobo is in, fish them through and connect.

Last LAST thing is cable management. Remember- do not put the side covers on before you first fire it up, or it will not POST.
