Simplest answer: spin up truenas and see if you like it. If you don't get an unraid license

Welcome to the forums! Looks great

So...it's fixed? It's booting? I'd def do a memtest

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Tfpgfy will be used with arch linux 64 bit for light to mid tier gaming, some coding and general web browsing will everything work? should i change something? (im scared) also, the case: idk just picked smt cheap, do i need a bigger case?

That’s fine, repaste it if you want, but both those temps are fine for a 750ti. i speak as someone with more than a few 750ti’s

Well there's your problem. 4x16GB is very hit or miss, especially when all 4 sticks were not bought at the same time in a low speed bin where Corsair can change what IC is on the sticks at any given moment (the same model number != the same kit). You're lucky that the system will even boot at all right now. Pull all the sticks out and look what the version number is across all four sticks (this will say something like ver. 3.43.01), as that will give some odds as to whether it will be possible to get this working at high speeds or not. Assuming they're all the same version and Corsair didn't do anything weird like making the kits dual rank for some reason (this would mean that 4400-4800 is about the most you could hope for), there are some things you can do to attempt to get higher speeds to work like playing with BIOS revisions and tuning IMC parameters, but don't expect it to just work. If you really need 64GB of RAM, return both kits and get a 2x32GB kit instead.

Yeah, there's an air pocket/some thermal paste where it doesn't even touch the dye/die/the thing.

Yeah, then there isn't much need indeed. Oh, but do you live nearby any, or do you have a friend with a USB 4 mobo? I've seen some reports of TB4 docks working, but I'd rather err on the cautious side. The point is that (afaik) there are no AM5 mobos with official thunderbolt support, even though they actually have a TB4 controller. Another weird fact is that it seems that there are only 2 small mobos that have proper USB4, one being a really high end Asus Strix Gene, and the other being the x670 version of the ITX mobo you picked. I'm not sure how well the dock would go with USB 3.2, I think it should be fine since your two displays are not that hard to push and 20Gbps should be more than enough, but I can't be sure since I've never tried it myself. After double checking the USB4 stuff I said above, I guess it'd be better to just go with a larger-ish case and try out the dock to see if you really need some specific motherboard, or if any USB 3.2 one will do (in which case your selection becomes way easier).

So, it's better, alot better Thank you so much for the help bro, it was a really bad bad thermal paste placement/bad contact i wiped and applied a new one,

Okay. Thanks.

Ok thanks

no the gpu is probably fine. it probably has more to do with a minor software inconsistency with your specific combination of hardware which results in........ an overly specific glitch that can only be seen by spamming the windows key. something small like a driver / bios / windows update is either to blame or is the solution for it. your gpu would need to be freaking out a lot more than that in regular usage to actually have a hardware fault.

I don't remember how long I've been a mod

your gpu temps are fine. It probably has more to do with the relationship between the software and age of the hardware. More than likely the game is expecting more cpu/ram/drive speed than you actually have and is resulting in hitches. while the game can run at 120fps in specific instances , not every aspect of the game can operate quickly on older hardware so the machine will have to play catch up every now and then.

Mmmh, brand new ribbons for a 40 year old machine VID_20240422_211905.mp4

Within a company you could have essentially the "publisher" and "developer" still. Just like the whole concept of "engineers vs marketing department" [with almost the real world case of RCA being the example]. You get the pencil pushers who come in and demand certain things, and the developers are stuck essentially doing that...so in this case there is still a potential the dev team might not have known/wanted it a certain way but the team in charge of essentially the numbers were the ones who pushed it. In general in regards to this case...I would be pretty mad. It will be interesting to see what the original terms were though, as how they define DLC...if they didn't really specify I could see a class action. Overall as well, I'm not 100% sure how to feel about this. If it were me, I would be mad, but at the same time if it is a greatly different feature set that changes gameplay itself I could see it as being not DLC, but at the same time it really sounds like it's in a whole grey area. After all, I'd argue a lot of DLC could also be considered a "feature" it's just about to what degree it is a feature. At the very least, I think those who had purchased the previous pack should have been granted a very small fee to also purchase it...as they are the whales and you really should pander to them more instead of making them feel ripped off.

Congratulations on your Gayness ! iykyk

Idle temps don't matter. No point taking the risk to repaste if load temps are OK. If GPU usage isn't maxed it's usually that the CPU can't feed it fast enough.
