thanks a lot guys!

Hi again! So i sadly don't have picture of the building part, but you have seen the result! It was my first build so i was pretty stressed about it.While building i had some minor problem with the cpu cooler, and some small problem with the rf120 fan. The cpu cooler was a bit hard for a stressed first timer i did not put the bracket well and did not secure the cooler enough, it was a bit loose, but nothing dramatic. For the rf120, they are not that complicated if you are used to rgb fan, but for a first timer, jesus those instruction were bad, but like really bad so it took me waaaay too long to install them. Cable management was not that bad in the NZXT h500i, i think that the difficulties mainly came from the fack that i never did cable management in a pc. For the result, i really like the pc and the performance are awesome, especially if you come from a i5-6500+gtx 960. After messing around i've found that my cpu was running quite hot at idle (between 45-55c), after looking online i played a little bit in the windows power mode and it solve all my problem, now running at 36 average and this without tanking my gaming performance! For the videocard, it seems to have some coil noise, but nothing too loud, just a little anoying. the build took me a long time since i was really carefull and really slow, plus the fact that bios update gave me a bit of a headache. I started at 18 to finish at 2 in the morning. I really like the combo and i'm glad about the switch. To answer your question, the rtx is awesome for 1440p 144hz and i really recommand it. I don't know about you processor tho!

i don’t fully agree with hdd being already obsolete, but yeah it’s comming near the end. I will probably upgrade along the way!

exact it’s rainmeter + wallpaper engine!

i totally forgot because of school ahah! I just posted it!

I started at 18h to finnish at 2 in the morning. I was really stressed, but in my opinion it turned out great! Thanks a lot to everyone who helped me! Sorry for the bad quality pic ahahah video-1581824363.mp4

so as a follow up, what i have done: disable pbo ajust my fan curve tighten (probably spelling mistake in that one) my cpu cooler and lastly activate windows power saving function, my temps now stay in mid 30's and the stress test only push the cpu up to 75c ish. It seems pretty good for me! I just want to know, does windows power saving mode as a big impact on performance or cpu speed? thanks!

Ok thanks for you're answers!

Ok got it! Also if i do a stress test later, what kind of results would be considered as ok or not good considering my situation?

ok so in you're opinion there is nothing to worry about? Also if i stress test it later, what kind of result should i expect, or avoid?

Also, no i did not overclock, it's stock!

But aren't the idle temperature a bit high for an hyper 212? And thanks for the tips!

Hi, i just built my first pc and was wondering about the cpu temp. I have a hyper 212 cooler installed and my ryzen is sitting at 45-55c at idle, while gaming it goes up in high 70's. I did not try to stress test it because i don't have any software to do it. So i was wondering, are those temps fine considering i don't have the stock cooler? Thanks!

oh shoot i did not specify my mistake! I already have a 240gb ssd so i will use this one! The hdd is just for games and everything else!

Can't wait to build this one by myself!! Edit: I already have a 240gb ssd, that's why there is not any ssd in the picture or in the part list
