I stopped trying to explain things to people who won't understand (or don't even want to try to understand) I simply recommend what they should do and then ask if they want me to do it for them... if they don't agree or don't want me to help, I say "OK and good luck" and then change the topic or walk away...

Maybe one day ill have a friend.
 
Sorry joking... im getting off topic...

Just my own nosey two cents... you don't have to listen if you don't wana...
 
1) Drop the hyper 212 evo... the stock AMD cooler will be just fine for this build.
 
2) Find a cheaper case
 
3) use the money you just saved from steps 1 and 2 and get a better monitor. 

I’m a huge fan of my clicky blue switch G915

The Lego took alot longer to build, I can say that.

That's the best way to go about it. I get that people are trying to help, but if the other person doesn't want help, it's not worth spending energy on it. If they want to waste their money or time, it's on them.

Bro! Love your Lego Star Wars collection!!! I have a few myself but I still want a few more sets.
 
... you PC is cool too...

So like, 2ish years ago, I built an inside joke PC. Basically my best friend was like: Betcha cant slap a PC on a drying rack.
I did better.
 
Anyway, Ryzen test bench using spare parts I had laying around, and a plate rack for storing plates.
 
Ryzen 3 3100
2133mhz 8gb ram
500w psu
GTX 1050
Asus Prime B450M-A 
500gb Crucial P1
 
The original build was based on the AM3 socket and had 8gb of 1066mhz DDR3 and a GT 730. Id take this as an upgrade ngl. 
 
Pictured as well is the original build
 

Howdy all, finally close to finished with this system after working on it for most of this year, just in time for 2021.
 
Started the year off doing 3950X, motherboard, ram etc paired with my old faithful SLI 1080Ti's but with SLI dying more and more, it was finally time to get crippled financially and go big on GPU. Also figured I would jump on the newer gen CPU since I plan on keeping this one for a while. Last of the water cooling bits arrived just in time for Christmas holidays so a friend and I threw the last bits in last night.

Did a quick OC on the card to see how she went under water - pretty damn well I think https://www.3dmark.com/fs/24433500

Thinking about a few more tweaks to the layout in the new year, but going to be a while until the parts are in. Now........ I just have to get around to painting the cracks in here while i have the time off over Christmas, not keen.

I use to play MMOs like WOW, ESO and Arc Age... i was in a big really cool and active guild... I had hours a day, everyday to play and level up and gear up...
 
I only play a couple of times a month now... I have to play quick one time sessions now... MOBAs really fit into that... every game everyone starters at the same level and gear and over the course of 30 - 60 minutes you level up, gear up and then its over. Smite is my favorite MOBA I find it much more enjoyable than LOL or DOTA.
 
I also play Total War: Warhammer II... its a game I can play at my own pace... if I have to get up and do something I'm not leaving a team short while I go AFK...
 
Also Oxygen not Included and PUB G for the same reasons...

CL15 @ 3000 = 10 nanoseconds latency
CL16 @ 3200 = 10 nanoseconds latency
CL18 @ 3600 = 10 nanoseconds latency
 
So the absolute latency is the same, since that is a function of the CL number and the frequency.
 

depends on the cpu as well. 

latency is the same for all, in which case the higher frequency of the 3600 gives it an advantage. that's if the cpu can actually run the ram at 3600.

Agreed. Latency being the same means frequency (=speed) wins.
 
To give a bit more info: The CAS Latency number is expressed in number of clock cycles. Higher frequency = clock cycle is faster = absolute latency is lower.

@OP For completeness I will point out that the real clock frequency of the ram is half of what the effective clock is. So 3600MHz ram is actually running at 1800MHz but because it is double data rate so you get 2 bits per clock cycle so double your effective clock.
 
So to calculate CAS latency you would use the real clock and not the effective clock.

CAS latency is only one of many timings though, and the large array of others also have some influence in overall results.
 
Still, depends on the software being run, some scale better with overall latency, some scale better with overall bandwidth. I'm not up to speed on what modern games do when it comes to that behaviour. Differences are minor and it isn't going to make or break a system.

OMG my ADHD just hit an all time high...
 

Finished Painting, for now...

Cable Sleeving... there goes the rest of my weekend... 
 

 
not to bad if i say so myself though... 
 

The Sleeving looks great so far, ,well done.
