I have a phanteks P300 case I wanted to mount it to the wall but I cannot find any good brackets to mount it to the wall. Should I just get a regular shelf and throw it on there?

I should have said an oem cooler that doesn’t fit regular mobos... thanks for the response

So currently I have 2 spare cpu’s which has brought me to a fork in the road based on the spare hardware I have. I plan to just run discord, music, and stream from this pc I already have a spare psu and hdd I’m going to use. Also a spare zotac 1050 I’m going to use. route 1: I have a spare i5-4590 which I have a motherboard for already. GIGABYTE GA-H81M-H LGA 1150. I also have a 2 spare ddr3 dimms but unfortunately they are mismatching dimms one is 4 gb one is 8 gb. I only have an old oem cooler for this one so I’d have to get one. route 2: Spare Ryzen 3 1200. I do have a cooler for this guy, but I have no mobo or spare ddr4 dims. Plan to use this case: MasterBox Q300L mATX Case w/ Magnetic Design Dust Filter, Transparent Acrylic Side Panel, Air Flow Performance by Cooler Master http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=11-119-331&ignorebbr=true What do you guys think?

I’m still using a 1070 @ 1440p 165hz and it has no problem with any games I play (apex right now). I would look for a used one.

Awesome thanks for the insight

So if they are both the same frequency and timings I should be good to go without lowering either right?

I've been using G.Skill ripjaws memory 3200 cl 16 (2x8). I've noticed lately when using obs and tabbing in and out of full-screen games (specifically apex as of late which seems to use moire ram than most games I play) my PC cannot transition very well which has led me to believe I just don't have enough memory for everything to be loaded. I am considering adding another (2x8) kit at the same speeds giving me (4x8) . Will I have compatibility issues doing this, not having the same stick even if they are the same speed and latency? I specifically had me eyes on the corsair rgb kit because I feel like like it will finish off my build nicely since I have a lot of corsair components. Might I just need to bite the bullet and get a full (4x8) kit?

I have been using the Turtle Beach Elite pro gen 1 with its mixamp for a few years now. I broke the headband on the top so it’s time for new headphones. I’ve been looking at both the Massdrop x HIFIMAN HE4XX Planar Magnetic Headphones and the beyerdynamic dt 990 pro. Does anyone have any recommendations for me concerning those? https://www.massdrop.com/buy/massdrop-x-hifiman-he4xx-planar-magnetic-headphones/talk#discussions https://www.guitarcenter.com/Beyerdynamic/DT-990-PRO-Open-Studio-Headphones-250-Ohms-1273887990776.gc?cntry=us&source=4WWRWXGP&gclid=Cj0KCQiAj4biBRC-ARIsAA4WaFgDtfUrd9mLueBqbjSE84YKP8Uum7-5itlLQa26hv-pYVJOUChCxpAaAo_mEALw_wcB

I was just thinking to encode video while I’m gaming instead of my 1070

I’m not trying to link them I was just thinking to encode while I’m gaming instead of having my 1070 do it to save a few frames

So I had a thought today when I saw a picture of another setup with 2 different gpu’s in it and it got me thinking. I currently use a 1070, but I have a spare 1050 and 660 sitting around. Would I save myself some frames by throwing the 660 in my machine and using it for my 2 side monitors (1080p 144hz and 1080p 60hz) and my monitor I game on (1440p 165hz) on my 1070. While also using the 660 to encode. I’m confident my psu can hold up. Good idea or not? Merry Xmas everyone

So I recently got a new 8700k (Still working out my oc as of right now at 5.1ghz stable so far) and I have been setting up obs to stream. I have been testing @ 720p 60 frames medium preset. Someone mentioned setting the affinity of the CPU to only ~8 threads depending on the CPU intensity of the game and allowing all cores on obs. Will this give me any kind of improvements? I couldn't find too many results about this on the web. Thanks for replies in advance

Currently I have a Turtle Beach Tactical Audio Controller. I was doing some research on various mixers when I remembered that I used to use my t.a.c. with ps4 and pc at the same time so I could hear discord call via the usb and the optical cable. I was wondering if the same would work for dual pc's (if I had a spare pc I would test it).

Tried a few and they were using 20% of my i5-4590

I just got a pack of the Corsair LL 120 mm fans but I’m only gonna use 2 of them, is it possible to replace the fan on the H60 and would that lower performance?
