  1. Personally I'd just stick with AM4 just get yourself a nice itx mobo with all the features you want and be off. Im actually in the process of doing the same thing you are however I have an 11th gen Intel and spending $600-$800 bucks to upgrade my CPU, mobo, and ram was not worth it.
  2. under volting is perfectly safe sir. The worst thing that can happen is system instability and that just means you went too far. Don't always trust mobo settings.
  3. San for any malware? Check what's running upon system startup? When all else fails ya just gotta bite the bullet and clean install lol
  4. Just undervolt it to be safe. I believe 100c is as high as it will go before throttling. I always try and keep my CPU under.80c
  5. What errors? Doesn't look like any issues. I'd check your ram next. Run the memory diagnostics tool. Just search for it via the start menu. If all is good I'd still suggest powering your system down completely a d reseating your modules
  6. Check the status of your drives with Crystal disk
  7. Hey everyone how's it going I was hoping somebody could give me their thoughts on this. So I have a fractal ridge that I'm going to be building in and putting in the Silverstone Vida 240 slim it should be getting here later this week. However I've been thinking about fitment and was wondering if anyone thought the 120mm would be a better choice for overall system thermals. I'm using a 5070 founders edition card so either one of the coolers will fit without a problem however there will be a 4 mm Gap if I use the 240 mm across the entire GPU and not sure if it would choke it up and cause thermal issues opposed to if I used the 120mm version of the cooler. What are your thoughts? Thanks
  8. I'm an idiot the AIO comes with either a molex or sata power adapter for the pump so I'm good
  9. Hey how's it going everyone! So I'm currently in the process of downsizing my rig from Atx to itx. Now I've run into a problem I believe and I'm looking for some advice So the board I'm using is the Aorus z490i ultra itx and it has 3 fan headers and a CPU header. I'm using an AIO in this build and I'm used to there being some sort of pump AIO connector on the board but there isn't one present on this one. Can I plug the pump into a sys fan header? Also I may add a fan hub just to clean everything up I'm not sure yet but is it possible to power the pump via a fan hub?
  10. It's just a fun project build for my son and I to do. Also calling a 3080 boat anchor . It's a fantastic card Plays everything I need and some. The real boat anchor here is the 50 series . On another note I just saw that CPU comparison video the other guy shared and I decided to just stick with this 11th gen and get a decent MATX board on eBay
  11. Yea I checked their specs on the case and watched some reviews and some people said with thicker longer cards there may be some issues
  12. Do you think the 9700x will be a big performance increase over my 11700k? Also the GPU is 12.6 in Long which is like 319 mm. The power supply is 150 mm
  13. Hey thanks for the recommendations yeah I seen that the price for the 9800 x3d was very steep. I normally go team Intel and go with the top K series i7 which tends to be around 350 bucks. Just wasn't sure how much of an uplift I would get going from the 11th gen to the 9000 series AMD if I were to go with the 9700x
  14. Yessir I'm going with a b850 board. I wasn't sure that 9800 x3d was worth the price over the other option which I think is the 9700?
  15. Hey all how's it going it's been a while since I've built anything and I thought nows a better time than any to start. So I'm currently downsizing from my ATX to an MATX case and mobo. I'm upgrading from an i7 11700k and keeping my RTX3080. so here's the parts list I have. I'm pretty set on the mobo it has pretty much everything I'll need for a good price. My real concern in the PSU now I have an 850 nzxt in my current build but I don't think I'll be able to transfer it over due to size constraints with my GPU since I have the aorus master edition which is chonky. It will probably hit the power supply. Could anybody recommend a solid sfx power supply for this build and maybe recommend which AMD CPU I should go with in the 9000 series. The prices of no concern and gaming is really all that's done on it. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rw4xb2 Thanks!
