  1. Thermaltake Core P5 oder P3 Series should work, the latter is open tho... but theyre not small
  2. Don't get me wrong, it's not that i have no other choice, those are just 2 psu's that i'm considering to buy. I'm located in germany and i think i should have access to almost every manufacturer there is, i just selected 2 high quality power supplies from manufacturers that i trust Also there is no way that the whole system consumes 225w under full hybrid load in cycles or eevee, as far as i know blender's hybrid renderer doesn't put gpu and cpu at 100% load. My system with a 1700 and 1070 already draws over 300w while hybrid rendering in vray and that cpu has a 65w tdp, there is no way a 3950x would draw 225w
  3. This... Capacitors can store loads for a long time even if they're unpluged, some store loads for minutes and others even for hours. While most capacitors store low loads <20v which in general are not dangerous unless you got a heart problem, there are some capacitors that can store high current loads that can be deadly, those are usually h-bride circuits that allow power supplies to be used with either 110v input or 220v input. Also be aware that even if you discharge capacitors by shorting or grounding them they can recharge themself the keyword for this is dielectric absorption... also dont short them, it could damage other components I also would not recommend to remove the fan of a power supply, there is a basic rule that applies to all electonic circuits: Higher temperatures always result in lower efficiency. If you want to replace that fan either bring it to a electrician that knows what he is doing or be careful what you touch... even better wear insulated gloves.
  4. Hey, i'm in the market for a new PSU since my 530w beQuiet Pure Power L8 is getting pretty old. I am currently running a 1700 non-x on a MSI X370 Gaming Pro non-Carbon in combination with a GTX 1070. Probably gonna replace the 1700 against a 3900 or 3950x soon since i also do alot of 3d rendering in arnold which scales pretty good with core count I can't decide which of those PSU's i should buy and which wattage would be recommended, a system like this would probably consume around 500-550w under heavy load so 650-750w should be fine if we consider that i also game and browse the web with it so atleast ~50% of the time itll only be under partial load. Any thoughts
  5. I delided my 3570k some years ago and replaced the thermal paste with liqiod pro and this improved my temps by 15°C. Still runs today although i replaced it with a ryzen 1700
  6. try loosening the timings, if your memory runs at 16 16 16 35 try something like 16 18 18 36
  7. I cleared the cmos once because the system didnt boot after manually setting the timings for the ram, i updated to the latest bios before installing the os
  8. But the Vcore in the bios is set to auto?
  9. So i got my new system now and wanted to set up everything properly and overclock it. Ryzen 7 1700 + MSI X370 Gaming Pro + 16GB G.Skill Ripjaws V 3000Mhz 15-16-16-35. So if i dont set the clocks manually the cpu will only run at 1.55Ghz so i set the clock to a fixed 3Ghz in the bios and disabled boost but it somehow still boosts to 3.2? Also if i set my 3000 XMP profile the system wont start, it just keeps restarting a couple of times and then just resets the ram clocks to 2133 and boots normally. Now the funny thing is when i set my 2666 Profile first and reboot into bios again and then change to my 3000 xmp profile it runs fine? In terms of temps my CPU idles at 39-41°C with a ambient at around 27-30°C so i think thats fine, load temperatures are at around 61-62°, im using a Thermalright Macho X2. Vcore is at around 1.040-1.056v i wanted to oc some, what is the max voltage i should go for everyday use? How high can i go in terms of temperatures?
  10. I got my delided old 3570k to 4.6 with a vcore of 1.328v, my temps peaked at ~80°C/176°F, and as a cooler i used a Alpenföhn Brocken 1 but i guess that i squeeze out another 0.1 Ghz with a stronger cooler like a NH-D15. For Haswell i wouldnt go higher than 1.375-1.400v and 85°C/185°F for daily use. You should be able to squeeze out atleast 4.5Ghz out of that Haswell Chip, unless Silicon Lottery really hates you. First i would check your voltage using stock clocks, if you want to squeeze out the maximum i you could even undervolt until you reach the minimum stable voltage for the stock clock and overclock from there. From your base voltage i would go straight to 4.4-4.5Ghz and increase the voltage by 0.025v until your system boots up, then i would run 25-50 runs of Intel Burn Test, usually if your voltage is too low the first 5-15 runs should BSOD your system, if so increase the voltage further but always keep an eye on the temperatures and make sure you stay under the max vcore. You could run a couple of games now or continue If you run those 25-50 runs of IBT and the games successfully i would increase the clock by another 0.1Ghz and bench again/ increase the voltage further untill you have about 0.050v left till your max voltage with the highest clock you can get, i would use those last 0.050v to finetune. Run another 100 runs of Intel Burn test and throw in some game and other synthetic benchmarks to make sure your overclock is stable
  11. I decided to take a B350 Plus and a Ryzen 7 1700, i can go for the shorter rendering times, payed exactly 500€ for CPU Motherboard and 16GB Ripjaws 5 3k CL15
  12. well theres coffee lake around the corner with 6c&?t but theyll be probably out of my price range Yes i use an AOC AGON AG271QG which has a 1440p IPS GSYNC Panel which runs at 165hz
  13. well i would like to increase the now and then to a daily basis, sadly the i5 is so annoyingly slow that i often get annoyed by it i play at 1440p@165hz
  14. So Intel and AMD currently offer 100$ cashback when buying a i7 7700k and a ROG Strix Z270H so i would end up at ~540€ with a 16GB 3200 Kit Going for a Ryzen 5 6core setup with a fatality x370 would be about the same price but offer me 2c and 4t more even if they might be abit weaker, btw whats the actual difference between the 1600x and the 1600 cant you just OC the 1600? I tend to render every now and then and my gtx 1070 can push the frames what should i buy
