    Switched to a MSI B450M BAZOOKA MAX WIFI Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard and also I mentioned earlier that I have an SSD its not just in the parts list. Added 2 case fans to subsidize the case thermals (I like the case a lot and it fits where I need it to)

    took your advice, thank you

    this is a pc for low price mid range gaming, the cpu was originally going to be a ryzen 5 but I managed to get a good deal on the ryzen 7 instead, I have an older gpu that I'm going to use to at least get the pc running until I can find a decent price on a newer one

    I forgot to mention, i got the cpu for 200 already also waiting to find a decent price for a gpu before i buy, that is not my concern

    build: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Waffle_Loard/saved/fp6N6h Hello I am a relatively inexperienced builder and would like a second opinion on this build before risking it and purchasing all the parts. I have an SSD on hand already that will be used, I didn't include it in the part list because I did not want to accidentally purchase another.

    I am aware of the lack of a gpu, this is due to current prices being a steaming cow pie, I have yet to find a good price-performance because of this (dedicated GPU is a must so iGPUs are out of the picture) The system is intended to be budget hence the cheap case, I recognize its poor airflow but this should not be a major concern for its intended use case. As for the mobo, would a Gigabyte B450M DS3H V2 Micro ATX AM4 be an adequate alternative? As for the SSD I have a 256 gb m.2 one already on hand its just not on the list to avoid confusion when purchasing parts. thx for the input thus far.

    Hi, I'm currently doing a simple build for a friend and ran into a bit of confusing wording when checking out the "Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L MicroATX Mini Tower Case". What's getting me is the "mini" part, does this mean its a mini tower or a microATX with mini support or something else I am not catching?

    The only difference between the two laptops i could see causing an issue is one has and intel igpu (the one that worked successfully) and the other has a intel igpu and a 1050 ti (mine)

    The adapter is being used on a laptop, i tested it successfully on another laptop but am unable to get it to work on mine.

    I've had this hdmi to vga adapter for some time now (several months) then it just suddenly stopped working when I went to go plug it back in just a few days ago. When I plug in the monitor to my laptop it does not detect anything unless the monitor is "scanning" for connections, when it does detect it it appears for a moment on my laptops nvidia, intel, and windows display settings then disappears almost immediately, all the while the second monitor is blank and says no signal. My laptop is a Acer Nitro 5 (model no: ANS515-53 1050ti with 256 gb ssd) The monitor is a HP Compaq LA2206x The adapter is a Moread HDMI to VGA (link below) https://www.amazon.com/Moread-Gold-Plated-Projector-Chromebook-Raspberry/dp/B00SW9JI9A What I have tried - Reinstalling and updating everything including windows and drivers - updated bios - tested the monitor and adapter together on another pc with no error - tested my laptop with a hdmi monitor with no error - tested a separate vga monitor using the same adapter and had the same issue The only variable that has changed to possibly cause an issue is a windows update (do not 100% recall if one occurred within the time I was not hooked up to the monitor) and me resetting to defaults on nvidia control panel

    I appreciate the effort however the end that plugs into the headphones is proprietary and has 5 metal strips compared to the standard 4 on a 3.5 mm cable. (as seen in the photo posted)

    I do indeed have a soldering iron allredy however the problem was solved right as you posted this, thank you for helping tho!

    I have done as instructed and its FUNCTIONAL YAY! However the slightest bump causes it to cut out again...
