I would definetly go with the top fans as exhausts, because you are going to pull tons of dust in your system when you use them as intakes, because the top is not filtered. You will be completely fine with the 3 intakes in the front and 3 exhaust in the top/rear. A little negative pressure isn't really a problem.

Random keyboard and mouse disconnects
Morco replied to Morco's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
Interesting question... I'm not sure, I guess the one in the 2.0 port would just disconnect at times and the other one would just stay connected. Another fun thing though: My mouse and keyboard exclusively disconnected at the very same time, and when I would pull them out and plug them back in the same port, only the mouse would work and the keyboard would stay disconnected. I actually had to switch up the respective ports in order for both of them to function normally again. -

I updated all the drivers and apart from that, there are no other softwares that actually control or influence the periferals. It was probably the problem @TUGiF mentioned above I guess and it is fixed for now, thanks for you help though. -

I actually did this myself a couple weeks ago and I haven't had problems since. It's still weird though, because they were being connected to USB 2.0 ports on my old system. It's w/e now I guess, but it certainly was super annoying. Thanks for your help anyway. -
The headphone port is an output but for the mic you'll need an input.

Then you should definetly go with more capactiy.

I'm not sure wether the CPU is able to handle the high ram-speeds stably. So I'd rather take the 32GB because you probably won't notice the difference in daily use anyway. Except if you are using highly ram-speed dependet applications.
-
That is a whole different scenario and not compareable. We're talking 3x to 4x the core count here. That's why AMD does not include coolers with Threatripper.
-
It is true that you will lower the temps with an aftermarket cooling solution, but the thermals will have no more than a marginal effect on lifespan. Your CPU will long be outdated before you run into problems that were caused by too much heat, especially since the CPU is not running at throttling temps, which help to protect the CPU from thermal wear.
-
If you don't want to overclock, the included cooler will do just fine. That being said, the CPU can indeed get quite toasty even when running at idle, putting out temps around 50°C and up to 70°C when under load according to my own experience with the 3700X. Given the higher clock speeds, the 3800X might run a little hotter, but still nowhere near throttling. Also, the cooler can get a bit noisy, which I personally don't really have a problem with at the moment, but I'm still planning to upgrade to an AIO later on. So far though, the Wraith Prism is a good enough cooler for daily use.

Your PSU should be able to handle the new graphics-card no probs.

As I said, 550 Watts should be fine for your system. PSUs are most efficient when they are utilized to the extend of 50-75%, so if you really want to upgrade and/or overclock, a bit of headroom might me a nice thing to have and therefore get the 650W. The difference between the CX and the P650B is apparently, that the CX does have both OCP and OTP while the P650B doesn't have OTP. Otherwise they are pretty much the same.
-
I honestly don't know about OTP and OCP, but 550 Watts should be fine. If, however, you plan to upgrade your gpu in the near future as well, you might want to go for the 650 Watts as that also gives you a bit more headroom for overclocking. As for the brand, I'm a bit of a corsair fanboy in that regard, because they just make great quality PSUs. In reality, any PSU with an 80 Plus Bronze or higher righting will be of decent enough quality i believe.
-
I don't know how small you are going with your build, but the noctua NH-L12S is pretty low profile and will cool the 3400G easily. you might even have some headroom for some slight overclocking.

What cooler do I need for Ryzen 7 3800x?
Morco replied to Techea's topic in CPUs, Motherboards, and Memory
And it is in fact not a problem. My cpu wont run hotter that 75C when under full load. There is no issue concerning life-expectency when it's running at 50C idle, but i understand that it is not really pleasant either.
