  1. One of the more fantastic setups I've seen, that is impressive!
  2. Wait... you seem to be the one that obviously didn't watch the whole video, their conclusions and recommendations are clear. I'm also the one offering considerate and helpful advice that is take it or leave it but never the less it is a small effort to help. You on the other hand are the one being condescending.
  3. Very Good looking, very clean setup, well done. But... Your radiator is oriented wrong, tubes always on the bottom, never the highest point of the rad.
  4. There are 2 options to finding answers apart from guessing: 1:There are Web applications like this one : https://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator 2: There is AMD's minimum PSU recommendation for the card you're looking at which comes out to 650watt minimum.
  5. My own personal thoughts for you: My Personal Build for you: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ 1: Z790 and 13600k are likely a better choice for most of what you're describing as a use case, the higher clock speeds and comparably high thread counts will work better than the 12700k IMO. 2: Monitors: if possible go 144hz refresh rate with Freesync compatability, HIGH refresh with Freesync is FANTASTIC, the BEST user experience upgrade I've had recently. 3:I'm a big fan of the Very small form factor Lian Li A4, worth checking out, may not be your thing. 4: with DDR5 currently, 6000+ speeds are great for Intel platforms, a little technical here BUT, finding memory with CL30 or CL32 is your best choice while refraining from CL36-36-36. REASON: the 30 and 32 are likely SK Hynix M or A die (likely M) while the 36's are Samsung memory, CURRENTLY the SKhynix memory is the best available, for much information and rambling SEE Buildzoid from Actually Hardcore Overclocking and his video HERE:
  6. Overall the only concern i have with your build is the Power supply, I would Highly recommend if possible going with a different PSU. Look through this list on the forums and pick something that fits your price range and is of the best quality you can get.
  7. Unfortunately Either of these leave out a Graphics Card upgrade. If you're willing to purchased Used parts via Ebay or similar, your options will increase drastically and the prices will be more palatable. For example Used GTX1070 GPUs will sell for $100-120, these will certainly supply your desired Graphics performance. While 3-5 generation old Motherboard/CPU/Ram sets can sell on ebay in the $200- 500 range depending upon quality of components. This route may be beneficial to you or too intimidating. The Graphics card option is likely your best bet for a solid Graphics performance jump for the smallest dollar investment. This is all stuff for you to decide upon.
  8. Here's an AMD centric Build: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/
  9. Much of this depends upon what precisely you are willing to do. The 750Ti is certainly reusable but will not likely give you the graphics performance that you're looking for. The ddr3 is potentially reusable but would require a Processor and Motherboard that uses ddr3. The Power supply is very low wattage and (for me at least) very suspect in quality. The DVD writer is fine to be reused. The Case is very reusable if your content with it. To keep costs down and decisions logical I would recommend considering a few things.: the CPU, Motherboard and Ram are likely not worth the compromises needed to reuse any of them. Here's a PCPartPicker link to a build I put together, this may help you with a starting point for things to consider. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9sFYKp
  10. Overall it's a fine build. With the exception of the PSU. Please don't go cheap on the PSU. Troubleshooting them REALLY sucks, they can kill components, they are VITAL to a properly working PC but most often overlooked because they're not glamorous. BUT the PSU is the foundation that you build the rest of the PC off of, if it fails the rest of the PC crumbles. IMO: Gold rated, Name brand, 750watt PSU Corsair, EVGA, Silverstone are all decent brands. Checkout the PSU tier list on the LTT forums:
  11. Not seeing anything wrong, I'm not familiar with the programs that you'll be using and whether additional system Ram would be helpful or if additional V-ram would be helpful. Unfortunately upgrading ram in ITX means replacing the old ram due to there only being 2 dimm slots. What i'm saying, is it may be worthwhile to research whether additional System memory would be prudent and whether your GPU choice (Nvidia or AMD) is best for your 3D modeling program.
  12. Overall looks fine, you can always upgrade your CPU down the line if you cant get a better one now. 500Gb might be a bit small? depends on how many games you want installed. 12100f:
  13. Your build looks great, having additional case fans to match the H100i will be good. HOWEVER: to quote Toms Hardware: "Most (if not all) 600 series boards have BIOS updates available that add Alder(Raptor) Lake support, but you need to be able to download and install those updates before you try to boot with a 13th Gen Raptor Lake CPU. If you have access to an older Intel 12th Gen “Alder Lake” CPU, you can put the older CPU in the board, boot into and update the BIOS in the UEFI interface (see how to enter the BIOS if you don’t know how to get there), and then you should be good to go. But most people buying a Raptor Lake CPU and new motherboard today don’t have a last-gen processor just lying around the house. if you want to buy a 600 series motherboard to use with a Raptor Lake CPU, your best bet is to buy a model with BIOS Flashback, a feature that allows you to update the BIOS with no CPU installed at all." I DID NOT see your motherboard on the list of boards with Bios Flashback capability. you may want to investigate this, and possibly choose a different board or move up to a Z790 board.

  14. Like most of the build. BUT, i don't think you're going to find ANY new RTX3080 for $600. If you do find one, please, show me the link.
