  1. I'd like to play some of the newer titles that I'm not comfortable doing with my current PC. Another issue that I'm running into is playing modded minecraft. Some suff is really badly optimised so I hoped going overboard with this setup would counter that. I also tend to have a fair bit of stuff opened in the background, typically tens of Firefox tabs. @Vishera Fair points but I did noticed you changed the GPU, why is that? And for the SSD yeah I get it but should deliver better performance (that's probably unnoticable?)?
  2. (second try xD) So hi first off all. I'll be getting an entirely new setup so I need advice and recommendations on the following build.

Better to step down to X470? Not exactly sure what am I losing or gaining between them. Should I do manual overclocking or is the automatic good enough? I'm missing a cooler in there since I want to get the tray CPU. Planned on going for Noctua NH-D15 but do I really need it? I do want it to be quiet tho but if it isn't necessary, I'd rather get something like Cooler Master MasterAir MA610P for it's looks. About the case... Really don't know what to get. Suggestions on what looks nice that's not too difficult to work around? I prefer to have a big tower. Also, how many vents do I need and which ones should I put in even? I also have no idea what HDD should I get. What's there to even consider when getting one? I doubt the performance differences are too big between low and high end. I'd probably go for 1-2TB on that. Monitor doesn't have the price, I've found it for ~450€. Feel free to be very critical about this, I want opinions and thoughts of what can and should be changed and why. I am aware I probably don't need such a CPU but I'm not giving up on it tho.
  3. Doesn't the PSU need like a feedback signal from the motherboard to actually turn on? That is the main reason why am I asking, since I was not sure about that. Otherwise a PC would instantly start up when connected to power...? And yes, I wanted a just a temporary solution but seeing that the cable is not far from the enclosure itself by price, I'll just go down the safe route. Thank you for your replies!
  4. Hello. I have a rather specific question. I have an HDD along with the power supply from my old PC that I have taken with me when I was moving, and none of other components(don't ask why, it's a long story). HDD uses SATA connection. Today I ordered a Laptop to which I would then want to connect that HDD via USB if possible. Now, I know 3.5" drives need 12V that USB dosn't provide, so is it possible to utilise the PSU to actually make it work, and is there an actual SATA to USB cable that I could buy?
