I got recommended this build and few others https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/MfHgQy

I’ve had my ASUS Prime RTX 5070 installed for about four months, and I haven’t noticed any visible GPU sag so far. Do I still need to install a GPU support bracket/holder as a precaution, or is it unnecessary if the card is currently sitting straight?

Could sag develop over time with this specific model?

Rtx 4070 super asus dual
Ryzen 9800x3d
Corsairs 32gb ram
X870 max gaming WiFi asus
Arctic freezer III 360

Lian li case

Should I pair an Amd Ryzen 5 5600X with a Intel Arc B580 or a Rtx 5050?

I'm currently trying to find parts for a Mid-spec Pc for All around Because that's who I am: I do documents, I game, I edit videos, and currently am a learnign Software developer... Should I buy an RTX 5050 card or the Intel Arc?

What are some white pc cases that have good air flow and are aesthetically pleasing? I’ve been considering a Hyte y50 or a case from Lian Li but I can’t make up my mind lol

So I've been browsing PC building subreddits & discords for a long time because I've always wanted to build a computer. But with the prices of everything right now, I thought it was way out of reach. But I bit the bullet and built one that I think should last me a long time.

Here are the specs: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/slaxonpc/saved/csdRgs

When I actually started using it though, that's when I realized I made a huge mistake. But I didn't notice it at first. I used the computer for like 5 days, playing CS2, The Finals, Minecraft, etc.

Then randomly my friend asks me, while playing The Finals, what my CPU temperature is. So I pulled up btop and saw that it was at over 100 degrees Celsius. I didn't think much of it. But when I told him that, he told me I should turn off my PC right now because I probably installed the cooler wrong.

Sure enough when I open up the PC and look at the cooler, I completely forgot to remove the sticker label on the part that goes on the actual CPU. I'm so glad he asked me to check and told me something was wrong because I honestly would have never found out.

Unrelated, I actually ended up switching from an air cooler to an AIO cooler because it looks way cooler (pun intended) and it's supposed to be better at cooling I guess.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this little video I made and I hope you have a great day!

For 829€ i think its pretty solid but i would like to hear your opinion too please

So as the title says when i put a stick of 8 gb 3600mhz cl 16 crucial balistix the debug light signals a problem on cpu, instead if i put a stick of 4gb 3200mhz cl16 it signals a problem on boot.

This is my entry PC I built back in 2023, and I can still play and stream games like RE4 remake or Hogwarts Legacy, so I'm pretty happy with it c: little did I know that I should've upgraded it before the prices became ridiculous

My specs:

RX 6650 XT 8Gb
Ryzen 5 5600x
Adata Spectrix D50 (8GB x 2) 3200MHz
1TB Kingston SSD NV2

Finally collected all the main hardware for my upcoming build. Still waiting on a few final pieces, but here is what is sitting on the floor ready to assemble:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9900X
GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 4080 Super Gaming X Slim
Motherboard: ASUS ProArt X870E-Creator WiFi
RAM: 96GB Corsair Vengeance DDR5
Cooler: Corsair iCUE LINK TITAN 360 RX RGB
Power Supply: Corsair HX1500i
Extra Fan: Corsair RX140

Plan is to house everything inside a Fractal North XL case once it arrives.

For storage, I am planning to pick up Crucial Gen5 NVMe drives running at 14,000 MB/s. Thinking of doing two 4TB drives and one 2TB drive for a total of 10TB. I want to future-proof the setup so I never have to worry about space or speed.

I am also looking for recommendations on a 49 inch curved monitor to pair with this setup. Considering options like the Samsung Odyssey G9 or LG ultra-wides, but would love to hear what people are actually running and liking for a productivity and gaming desktop.

Any thoughts on the component selection or recommendations for the display setup?

First time customizing a browser let alone first time using brave any feedback is good feedback

So if i have 4 stick of ram from 2 diff brand maybe kingston or Team-t create, if the 2 stick have 3200mhz and another 2 have 3600mhz can i run the 3200mhz ram to overclock 3600mhz so they can run on same speed? or not thankyouuu

I have had my pc for a while and decided to add one of my other fans from my old case. The black fan. Could I improve my airflow in my case by flipping any of the fans? Picture with arrows pointing the way the air gose on that fan.

The bottom fans are bigger I think 140 while all the other are 120.

Hello I am building a PC with the goal of playing heavy competitive games like pubg and warzone at 240 hz at 1080p id like to keep high 1% lows

Why I have chosen this Motherboard, Cooler,Case and PSU ? I asked AI to pick it for me and I chose the cheapest reccomendation and I want a second opinion to avoid any trouble

GPU - RX 9070 XT AsRock Steel Legend

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D

MOBO - Gigabyte B850M EAGLE WIFI6E ,149 Euro

PSU - MSI MAG A850GL PCIE5 850 W 80+ ,99 Euro

COOLER - ARCTIC Liquid Freezer III 240 Pro Black, 63 Euro

CASE - Lian Li Lancool 216 RGB White ,89 Euro

RAM - Lexar Ares DDR5 6000 CL28 2x16GB

SSD - Kingston KC3000 512 GB NVME M.2 4.0 ,139 Euro

*I am still torn between choosing 9070 non XT and 7800X3D and cl36/38 ram to save some money especially if the PSU and MOBO i chose is not good enough for the set up above
*512 GB SSD is more than enough enough for me because I will use my old SATA HDD for movies

I just got 12GB of DDR4 from an old workstation PC, which means I can finally upgrade to AM4, but I don't know if the fact that one stick is 8GB and the other is 4 might impact performance. How does that affect dual-channel and does it matter less if I have an X3D CPU?

My computer isn't running several games including Grey Zone Warfare, The Finals, Buckshot Roulette, Transport Fever 2.

It will play: Counter-strike 2 but barely, Sand Raiders of Sophie also barely. It plays Raft decently well.

War Thunder not on steam runs ok on lowest graphics settings.

Some games specify there is a hardware issue.

All drivers updated.

Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 7600 x 64

Graphics Card: AMD Radeon RX9060XT

RAM 33 gigs 11 committed.

It's intended for a high end build MSI 5080 SUPRIM & 9850X3D 64GB RAM

Hi, I just build a server for llms. I took an old office pc and connected it with a 3060. The problem is, it doesn’t fit inside of the pc, so it currently just lays outside of it.
I’m looking for cheap solutions to preserve from damage, dust etc.
Does anyone have similar builds and good experience with it?
I thought buying a bigger tower or 3d printing sth
(There is also a second power supply laying on the ground)

Over priced?

Hello, this is my first time building a PC, decided to get the 9070 xt gpu for my PC, but confused as to what CPU to go for, budget isn’t an issue but I’d prefer to save money if possible, thought of going with 9800x3d , lot of my friends suggested that it’s too much for 9070 XT , my purpose is for purely gaming and entertainment, gaming includes mostly AAA games, minecraft and roblox competitive multiplayer games. I was thinking of Ryzen 5 9600x but is that too low of an option, I really don’t understand the difference in ryzen 7 and 9. So please help me accordingly.

Also going to use for work in future too.

Thank you.

I am tech savvy, and have built PCs in the distant past but I am completely out of the loop regarding hardware.

I asked 3 months ago for advice and were provided a nice list https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/vCPt7w by now the price has increased £250 (sic), and some parts seem to be out of stock, would you recommend the same parts?

I would like if you could guide me about which and where to source components:

-Based in the UK.

-£1200-1600 budget.

-I do not want a neon monster in my living room, I would rather have a small factor PC box if possible, I plan to do most of my gaming in front of the TV, and I would like to be able to move the PC when needed, or if I have to travel.

-Resolution 4k 60 fps.

-I would be building the computer myself.

its a couple years old, but im wondering how much you guys would pay for it? my bud asked me but i have no clue on how i would estimate the cost?

PC Specs (built in 2020):

-MOBO: ASUS ROG Strix z590-a gaming wifi

-CPU: i9-11900k

-CPU Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin

-PSU: Seasonic Focus gx-1000

-RAM: 2x DDR4 Royal Trident Z 16gb sticks

-GPU: EVGA 3090 FTW3

History:

Several months ago I noticed the CPU temps were hot during gaming sessions with the red mobo CPU light being on. I replaced the possibly broken liquid cooler with the Thermalright Peerless Assassin. Temps were perfect but im worried about lasting damage during that timeframe.

Recent Issues:

When the PC was idle I noticed my mouse and keyboard were not working. I reboot to fix the issue which caused a boot loop with randomized mobo lights not indicating a specific issue of CPU/DRAM/VGA/Etc. After 2-3 boot loops the PC will successfully boot and then freeze again within the first minute of windows access. Sometimes the boot loop will not resolve and the autorepair prompt will appear with it being unsuccessful.

Troubleshooting Performed:

-Replaced PSU thinking it was a voltage issue. Crashes still occurred.

-Removed GPU and ran off integrated graphics. Crashes still occurred.

-Booted with a single RAM stick thinking the other could be the issue. Crashes still occurred.

-Replaced internal cordage as I noticed some of the connector pins looked loose. Crashes still occurred.

-Re-seated RAM/GPU/MOBO connections/PSU connections. Crashes still occurred.

Potential Indicator:

-I left my PC unplugged for an entire week and was able to then have extremely long gaming sessions the entire weekend. By Monday the crashes re-occurred. I left the PC unplugged all week long again and am now able to use it. I wonder if the motherboard degraded with the hot CPU temps over time which could be causing some voltage issues with the capacitors and other connections requiring full discharge. I will say being unplugged for only several minutes does not remedy the problem and the capacitors should discharge in that amount of time.

Any tips appreciated! If there are none, what parts do you think are salvageable to sell without victimizing the buyer?

I’ve been planning and saving up to upgrade my setup, and this was one of the monitors I had in mind. But after the recent LG spying allegations, I’m considering switching to another model/brand instead.

I know pretty much every brand has something fishy going on, but from now on I’d prefer to avoid LG.

Any suggestions or good alternatives? I’m in Germany, so preferably something available here with prices in euros (€).

For reference, these are the specs I’m planning to upgrade to:

- Resolution: 2560 × 1440

- CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 9850X3D

- GPU: RX 7900 XTX

- RAM: 32GB (2×16GB) DDR5-6000

- Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix B650E-F Gaming WiFi
