The rig I'll be getting has a Motherboard with an Optical port. But because I'll have to wait for Black Friday sales to get my rig going, I kinda expect for supplies to run out, so in a corner of my mind the MB I plan to go with will be sold out. So I'm looking for alternatives if I have to go with a MB that doesn't have an optical output

Yeah I am. The PSU came with the case and as far as the test reviews go, it handles fine. If I experience any issues I'll go for a 650w Corsair PSU but I can't get one seperately as of now due to exchange rates. I'm glad my rig got a pass. I haven't been in the Desktop game since 2012 lol

It's a case brand that has just recently entered the market and people have been running 2080TIs on them apparently. I may get a Corsair PSU if I ever run into an issue, and I presume that by the time Black Friday discounts arrive, the 3070 will be on the market and I may get a 2070 for cheaper, or maybe a 3070 even for a little bit more. Ps. I forgot the mention, I already bought the Case & PSU & the HDDs

Budget (including currency): $1200 Country: Turkey Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Premiere Pro Editing, FPS Play, General multitasking Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): - PowerBoost X-59 650w 80+ 6x Rainbow Rgb Case - Bought SEAGATE 2TB Barracuda 256MB 7200rpm 3.5" SATA 3.0 Hard Drive x4 - Bought WD 500GB Blue NVMe M.2 SSD (2400MB Read/1750MB Write) ASUS TUF GAMING B550-PLUS AMD B550 Socket AM4 Ryzen DDR4 4600MHz (OC) M.2 Motherboard AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3,8GHz 35MB Cache Socket AM4 Processor GSKILL 16GB (2x8GB) Flare X 3200MHz CL16 DDR4 Dual Kit RAM MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT MECH 8GB GDDR6 256 Bit GPU or MSI GEFORCE RTX 2070 VENTUS GP 8GB GDDR6 256bit NVIDIA GPU General reasoning for the parts I chose SSD SSD's are still expensive in Turkey, I chose this one because I want something faster than the one I previously used(It was a Samsung MZNLN256HMHQ 500~mb read/write) but not something expensive like 3000mb r/w and I plan to add a 1TB SSD down the road. Hence I chose a MB with 2x M2) MB Originally went for an MSI B450 but a friend of mine who worked at a retailer told me MSI has been causing some issues so he told me to add a bit of budget to the MB and go for an Asus and B550 series if possible. I think it's a solid choice CPU Ryzen 3600X is the best I can get with the budget I have. I've been told to get 3600X rather than 3600 because there's a minor price but somewhat considerable performance difference. RAM I got the Flare X RAMs because apparently they perform better with Ryzen systems. They are also cheap. I can't afford faster RAM for the moment, I will be adding another 8g or 16g in the future. GPU Completely budget-bound. 5700XT is **cheaper** than RTX2070 Ventus but I am completely open to suggestions. I can't afford a 2070 OC and I don't want to downgrade to 5700 or 5600//XT. If you have any suggestions, I'm listening. Ps. I don't plan for a cooler because budget reasons and I've been told that the stock cooler is good enough. I will not be overclocking but I plan to add a Thermaltake UX200 in the future.

I've recently ordered a Grundig GS910 Black Soundbar to be used with a new system I'll be getting on Black Friday discounts. I have a few questions regarding the connectivity. Altough I've ordered an Optical Audio Cable to connect it to the motherboard that I'll be getting. I can't help but wonder if is there a way to repurpose one of the jacks provided by the motherboard, should if anything goes wrong. Now, I'll be connecting my headset directly to the motherboard so the green & pink will be out of the picture. I have never ever even once used Black, Blue or Orange ever, so I'm wondering if can I connect the soundbar via Aux to any one of these jacks? I'm asking this in particular because I don't want to get a jack splitter that affects general connectivity. I hope I got my point across. Thank you!

As title says, I'm but a rookie when it comes to networking, so let me sum this up: A Zyxel VMG8324-B10A router provides civilization and freedom to my home, with a tiny bit of 35mbps connection. 3 Gaming computers are hooked up to the ethernet ports of the router. Various wireless devices are connected to the router. Sometimes, guests connect to my network, jump to YouTube, and put on a 1080p video, watching it from a 5" screen, which ultimately results in my network bandwith getting sucked, my ping getting high, and my gaming / watching experience ruined. What I want to do is: Prioritize Ethernet traffic over any WLAN traffic. Limit WLAN Bandwith Prioritize certain WLAN devices over any other WLAN device, if possible. Router supports basic QoS as far as I can see. And dd-wrt doesnt have my router supported--but then, I wouldnt be able to go through all the settings with my tiny knowledge even if it did. Long story short, if it's not too much of a hassle, could I get some help accomplishing said goals? All these settings are default

Sadly, HyperX Cloud Core is not among the discounts currently and SHP9500 for some reason, is equal to $178 (680₺ or so) for whatever reason, so sadly they are not an option. G231 looks charming but what about the Rig 400 and the Siberia 200? Bouncing between these 3 currently

Uhm...good for you, I guess?? How does this help?

As title says, I have evaluated a few candidates within the same price range. Current contestants are: Logitech G231 Prodigy - I like the folding mic on this one Steelseries Siberia 200 White - Looks elegant Bloody G501 Radar360 7.1 - Matches with the rest of the peripherals HP Omen 800 Coolermaster MasterPulse Bass FX - Looks fine MSI DS501 Sennheiser HD 205 Platronics Rig 400 Stereo Plantronics Rig 500HX (XboxOne?) - Looks extremely attractive || 500E version not avaliable Plantronics Rig 505 Lava ThermalTake TteSports Shock - I wanted to get this for a while now Could you help me choose? I would make a call but I either heard or read something bad about my go-to's so I can't really make a conclusion, and I don't know much about specs so I can't decide that way either. It will be used for gaming and everyday use, on my Laptop, which has a sound card compatible with SoundBlaster Cinema 3 software. So yeah, I'm clueless, help.

Much thanks for all the help!

As title says, managed damage my wall somehow when I'm doing cleaning, my landlord kinda minds this type of things, is there a way that I can repair this with household items? I'ld look up the net but I don't even know what kind of "wall" it is, so. Any help is appreciated

Sadly the reouters they use do not support Ethernet connections, crazy, right?

So, imagine this scenario, you're in college, you brought your laptop with you to game, except, there's one problem, you're limited to the internet connection that your university is providing you. On such network, speeds are limited to 5mbps per persona. If this was the case, would you use your laptop's built in Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265 to connect to the said network or an external USB adapter, an AirtTies 2310, that can support higher dB output? The building is fairly old and even tho the Wireless-AC 8265 is faster in theory(>800mbps) whilst the 2310 can only support up to 150mbps, I think the higher dB output on the external adapter will yield better connection quality? Network is a derivate of eduroam, I believe it is international. The protocols are EAP/PAP - TTLS. Which one would you use, the Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 8265 or the AirTies 2310?

I'm glad someone caught it

We have 3 high end gaming laptops in the household and all 3 of them uses different brands of RAM. Mine uses A-Data, at first I was sceptical but it has been running fine, also Crucial is fairly reputable and competitive, you see their products being used on high end systems on channels like Jayz and Linus all the time, I'ld say go for it, as we are kinda past the point where cummy brands can't exist anymore, on the online market at least, IF you are shopping from a credible store.
