    it depends. are you building ATX or ITX? are you going for unicorn vomit RGB? are you water cooling? 3x140mm? 3x120mm? 2x120mm? 1x120mm? are you going to pick it up and move it often?

    ryzen CPUs like RAM above 3200, but don't go rush out to buy more RAM for a performance bump that isn't worth the cost, if you even notice it.

    the basic concept is there. I did this in my house with a 24 patch and a 48 port switch. 24 ports for rack equipment 24 ports for 24 patchs from my rack to my wall, from my wall to my attic, from my attic to where ever in the house. biggest thing is get a router that doesn't suck. maybe one that supports Duel ISPs, or Link redundancy to your switch for more throughput, since your switch and router are only 1Gbps. I understand you're doing this on a budget though. I hope you're good at terminating RJ45s. I went shielded Cat6A and the keystones were a bitch. the RJ45s weren't bad at all. unless you're going to go 10Gbps in the future i'd suggest only going Cat5. much easier to terminate and you can pull more in a smaller space due to diameter. sources: I work with structured cabling guys regularly. I did all of this in my own home.

    i've seen a lot of RAM die early to frequent power surges/outages/blips if this happens often(more than once a month) you should buy a UPS and put your machine on a that UPS so you can shut it down gracefully when the power dies.

    your experience seems to be one filled with growing pains. android auto works much better now than ever before. USB disconnect issues are nearly always the cable, sometimes they're the cable in the back of the unit. my wife's unit doesn't support android 11 very well, i will admit that. it doesn't like the OS integration and she uses android 9, and it works fine, save that Spotify doesn't work well with her unit. it's specifically spotify. i've never had any issues with bluetooth in a car. like ever. IDK what you're talking about. I just don't see how a 2 spare phone setup can be easier than a head unit and android auto with automatic DVR. at the end of the day you can only do what works best for you, the user.

    https://jeepcables.com/xj-double-din-radio-install-kit-97-01/ this is a doubleDIN frame for your jeep. android auto is simply click yes to confirm and go. android 10+ should have it baked into the OS now with no need to download the app anymore. the setup is pretty effortless. all of the android head units are super Chinese blocks. setup and keeping them stable is a monster. I have one in my car. my wife has an alpine. Here is one that supports a SIM for 4G. https://www.amazon.com/JOYING-Android-Touchscreen-Bluetooth-Receiver/dp/B08JQ8MRMX/ref=pd_di_sccai_6/139-5552791-8477063?pd_rd_w=TODrq&pf_rd_p=c9443270-b914-4430-a90b-72e3e7e784e0&pf_rd_r=KE9RYJH3B625Z76F7SDH&pd_rd_r=bfcb65ea-ee02-4755-b52d-683ee67453ea&pd_rd_wg=H5P72&pd_rd_i=B08JQ8MRMX&psc=1 I use Nova Launcher to customize the start screen, and HeadUnit Reloaded on the XDA store to get it to work with android auto.

    i feel like a standard double DIN headunit replacement that supports android auto would do you a lot of good. get a DIN adapter for your car and rip out the old stereo, then replace it with a new aftermarket unit. a lot of them support a dashcam input and a rear cam too. it's a massive modernization for an old car. what model car do you have?

    This isn't all of the 3000 series. it's just the 3090. because of the VRAMs on the back side.

    he's probably ESL so, i'm giving him a pass on grammar. OP, if you just got an intel 9400f i'd just hold on to it for a while. I think it's fine for gaming. maybe not for video editing though. i don't know what kind of workload you edit, so only upgrade if it's frustrating to compile/render. if you're willing to spend the money you can get an x570 motherboard and slot an AMD 2600 or 3600 in it until you can afford a better 3000 or 5000 series. or hold off even longer and save up for the next AMD generation. (it just keeps getting better)

    My 3080 Ti is run off of a 750w (Corsair SF750) I'd bet your 3070 ti would be fine on a 750W too, even though your CPU is power power hungry than my 5600X.

    they won't care. just box it back up, bring the receipt back, and ask for a replacement. tell them you updated the BIOS and still haven't had any luck. or you can tell them it was DOA, and ask if they can test it. if they refuse to test it, ask for a refund or replacement.
  13. VioDuskar
    if you updated it in june you went to F34, anything past F30 should support that CPU. maybe try to return the CPU and get a replacement?
  14. VioDuskar
    did the BIOS update notes list "added support for 5000 series" ? if not update the BIOS again. read the patch notes.
  15. VioDuskar
    This! there is an old saying that goes "if it isn't broke, don't fix it!" especially if you haven't updated firmwares before. read the patch notes. if they apply to you, then update. if the patch notes don't fix an issue that you have, leave it be.

    I use the 5600X with the stealth cooler and at idle it's cool(60ish), but under load it reaches 85C+ I run a SFF, so case fans don't apply to me. what are your temps at idle? 80C? Thermal paste does go bad after a while even if it's been in a tube, the seal isn't perfect. how old is the paste? if it's a few years i would get new paste. eiher way, if it's not over 90C+ you're fine. it's not going to hurt the CPU, just maybe begin to thermal throttle. if you're worried about it, get a better CPU cooler.

    it's been that way for decades now. plus, the centered taskbar is a massive turn off for me. and it's a mostly cosmetic upgrade. so i'm think it's going to be like Vista or 8.

    seabrent rockets seem pretty good, or so i hear.

    every other version of windows sucks. just use windows 10 until 12 comes out.

    if money isn't an issue get max Capacity, at the highest speed, with as many sticks as you can. if money is an issue just get two higher speed sticks in the capacity you want.

    DSP - OEM : OEM versions of Windows are identical to Full License Retail versions except for the following: - OEM versions do not offer any free Microsoft direct support from Microsoft support personnel - OEM licenses are tied to the very first computer you install and activate it on - OEM versions allow all hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard - OEM versions cannot be used to directly upgrade from an older Windows operating system

    https://download.asrock.com/Manual/Z490 Steel Legend.pdf read page 32. those lights show red if you have a CPU, RAM, VGA, or Disk fault. The lights are Item 16 on page 13. you need to look on the board to figure out which. you need a TPM to run windows 11, while your board support it, you may need to get one. see SPI_TPM in the manual. if you're not super techie don't run Win11 it's not at full release yet. going back to win10 probably won't fix your issue, unless it's a disk issue where it can't find an OS on the disk, which would be caused by a bad install.

    security is the inhibitor of ability. Blocking all incoming domain connections means traffic will not make it to your computer if it's coming from within your domain.

    clear your CMOS. reinstall win10. what is your motherboard model? some have LEDs for trouble shootings.
