SHILL WARNING
Nvidijeets such as the post above are getting paid 1 rupee per post are going to be spamming the HUB benchmarks that were NOT conducted with the optimized adrenaline driver for Crimson Desert coming out tomorrow. The goal is to spread FUD and anti-AMD misinformation. Ignore and report these posts

I thought building was always cheaper than buying, but the Costco offering looks really good for the price. Is it acceptable to buy a pre-built these days?

My desk has a Length of 33 inches ( 83cm ) depth of 20 inches ( 50 cm ) does anyone know a good monitor to buy? I'm putting my PC on a dresser next to it so I'm fine in that regard

Also I'm a retard who's never ever build any PC before but I have a HYTE Y70 case. Does anyone have any tips for me? What should I buy first and what do you recommend for my case?

On the UEFI BIOS it says N/A for chassis fans 1, 2, and 3. It makes me think that the motherboard doesnt recognize them which makes me think I made a mistake plugging stuff in, but this is my first build
>>
>>108403895
judging by that only having pins for the sensor and pwm you forgot to plug power into whatever splitter/controller actually runs the fans.
>>
>>108404019
I doubt he made that plug by himself.

>>108403895
2 wires I think means DC? Does your BIOS have an option onscreen that switches fan operation mode between PWM and DC?

Appreciate the help, that did the trick
>>
>>108404081
Keep an eye out for how many wires it has. If it has 3 (or was it 4?) then its a PWM. As far as you're concerned they're just different ways to control the fan speed. Must be pretty old or ultra budget fans to be DC. Most modern motherboards will also have an auto-detect feature, but in any case glad that fixed it for you.
>>
>>108404081
What one fixed it? I'm having the same problem.

You can be the winner faggot, no one else wants to sit on here 18 hours a day trying to spam shit you filthy fucking nigger.
>>
>>108404111
Oh no! I found the power I forgot and plugged it in so my fans spin but I also switched the mode to DC. Now I don't have software control of the fans! Oh noooo!

This is problem with guessing. You spread misinformation like a fucking plague.
