  1. Hello all! I have recently just gotten my hands on a brand new m.2 drive. It is a Crucial M.2 SSD 250GB. I also have a 2TB HDD with all my information on it including Windows. My problem is that after installing the SSD, I get sent to the BIOS because it is unable to recognise my HDD as the boot drive. Does anyone have a reason or solution to this? Thank you, much appreciated
  2. Thank You all for answering, however most of you answered the stock cooler. I have the 1600X which does not come with a stock cooler. I think I may order the Wraith Max. Thank you all have a good day.
  3. No, mine didnt come with one. Maybe Im just unlucky?
  4. Hi all! I have had all of my parts for my pc build for about 2 weeks now. However, I ordered the cryorig H7 to cool my 1600X. However, the boxes still do not come with am4 brackets. I had to order an upgrade kit and I am still waiting almost 2 weeks later. Anyways, I havent found many other coolers that are compatible with am4 out of the box. Do you guys know if any? My case has a max cooler height if 160mm. Thanks!
  5. Hi all! I live in australia and ordered most of my parts from the US and wondering if the PSU (from AUS) would work with all the US parts. Thanks!
  6. Hi all! I have recently been looking for a pair of wireless headphones. I came across the SteelSeries arctis 7. I was wondering if any of you guys had them or thought that they were any good? Thanks!
  7. I thought you needed alot of fans for a cool system?
  8. I want to have 3 fans at the front as intakes and 2 at the back/top as exahusts. However, will 3 at the front and 1 at the back be fine?
  9. What cooler can I buy that fits AM4 out of the box?
  10. The Cryorig H7 looks like a good option for me. However, do I have to purchase an AM4 upgrade kit or does it come with one?
  11. Hi all! I have ordered the Ryzen 5 1600X and have just realized that it doesn't come with a stock cooler which I was originally planning on usual. I am OK with spending something like $30 (USD) on a aftermarket cooler. However I have seen many options and don't know which ones are compatible with AM4 my Asus Prime B350-Plus Motherboard, or my Phanteks P400 chassis. Any and All opinions are appreciated. Thanks!
  12. Hi all! I have bought the Asus Prime B350-Plus. I have the Phanteks P400 and it comes with what I would assume is the normal stand off layout (ATX or 9 standoffs.). However, my motherboard only has 6 holes. It is missing where I would expect 3 more to go on the right side of the board. Will this be a problem? Will I have to buy a new motherboard? Thanks! All help appreciated!
  13. Hi all! I have the Phanteks p400 TG as a chassis and I was wondering what happens if I break my glass. Can I buy another one from Phanteks to replace the broken one? Thanks!
  14. What RAM speed would you guys recommend. I have a Ryzen 5 1600 Thanks!
  15. Hi all! I am looking to start off with 8GB of RAM (just one stick) and upgrade to 16GB about a month later. However, I have heard that there is a great performance increase when using RAM in dual channel. Should I buy 8GB in dual channel and later buy another set so that all my RAM dimm's are filled? Or should I stick with what I originally planned? Thanks!
  16. Hi all! I have never had a mechanical keyboard before that's why I want to start with a mecha-membrane board. However, there are two options. The RGB lighting and the green lighting. Now, I would prefer the RGB but I've never had a back-lit keyboard before. Is the $20 premium worth it for the RGB? Should I just stick with the cheaper green back-lit board? Thanks!
  17. Hi all! I was just going to buy the Windows 10 USB from Microsoft but it is out of stock and has been for a while. They have the download but I am skeptical about that. I already have a USB with the ISO file for Windows 10 for when I build my new PC. However, what happens if I buy the download file? Does it come with a product key? Thanks!
  18. Hi all! I am planning on buying the Phanteks P400 but it is troubling how the case only has two small air intakes on the front panel. Will this be sufficient if I have 3 Fans in the front as intake and 2 at the back/top of the case for exhaust. My specs Mobo: Asus Prime-B350 Plus CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 GPU: Asus Dual Fan 1060 6GB I really like the look of the case and the fact that it comes with RGB light strips. Any thoughts or opinions appreciated! Thanks!
  19. Hi all! I am looking for a power supply around 450-550 Watts for my build. CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 GPU: 1060 6GB (Asus Dual Fan) Motherboard: Asus Prime B350-Plus I was looking at the Corsair CX550M however it is just a little more than I want to spend. Do you guys have any other suggestions? Thanks!
  20. Hi all! Ive just built my PC and now I am wondering how to actually boot Windows 10 from the USB I have made. What is the boot menu button on the Asus B350-Plus Prime board. Also does anyone know the key to get in to the BIOS. I know its normally DEL but is it different for every motherboard? Thanks!
  21. Can you send me the link to buy the key?
  22. Hi all! I am building a PC and I need an OS. I was looking at Windows 10 my build does not support a optical drive. So if I were to order this from amazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZSI7Y3U/?tag=pcpapi-20 Would It come with a product key so that I could activate windows after downloading it from Microsoft? Thanks!
  23. Hi all! I was wondering which of these GPUs I should get. I was looking around and newegg just released a thanksgiving sale! They dropped the AMD card by 80 dollars and the Asus Nivdia card by 30 dollars. The prices are now $200 and $270. Should I grab the AMD card? It seems that they preform roughly the same however I do prefer Nivdia. All opinions and help appreciated! Thanks!
  24. Hi all! I am looking to buy a GTX 1060 6GB for my first PC build. I want to get it for as cheap as possible. I found the Asus Dual Fan 1060 on sale for $270 on newegg for pre black friday deals. Will this be the best deal? Should I wait for Cyber Monday? Will it have a better deal? Thanks!
  25. Hi all! I am looking to buy a GTX 1060 for my first PC build. I was looking at the Asus Dual Fan 1060 for $300 USD. It is on sale at newegg for $270 and I was wondering If I should buy it now or wait until it is actually Black Friday. That leads me to my next question. Does newegg have bigger sales when it is actually Black Friday? Are there better sales on Cyber Monday? Help! Thanks
