    Have you tried pressing the install button on the game? I saw something that said trying to install it again will get steam to recognize that it is already installed and locate the files.

    Note: The PSU Tier List has been migrated to a new thread: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/1116640-psu-tier-list-40-rev-10/
     
     
    ***
     
    Welcome to the brand new PSU Tier List! Worked on, by @Stefan Payne, @LukeSavenije, and myself. This is a complete overhaul.
     
    We'd recommend that if you have a gaming system, to not have a unit below Tier B.
     
    All information below is opinion based on fact. Units may be bumped down due to the following: missing protections, group regulation, bad electrical performance and catching fire.
    List is subject to change at any time, due to change in sources available.
    Single rail units exceeding 650W will not be placed above Tier A.
    Sleeve bearing fans will not be placed above Tier B. Group regulated units will not be placed above Tier C.

    adamgasth reacted to LienusLateTips in PSU Tier List 2.1 - LEGACY   
    This is a legacy list, based on the PSU Tier List 2.0. It will rarely be updated. It is meant to be used as a ranking for legacy units only.
     
    All information below is opinion based on fact. Units may be bumped down due to the following: missing protections, group regulation, bad electrical performance and exploding.
    List is subject to change at any time, due to change in sources available.
    Sleeve bearing fans will not be placed above Tier 3, and when bumped are marked with 3 gold asterisks. Group regulated units will not be placed above Tier 4, and when bumped are marked with 3 blue asterisks.
     
    This is a refresh of the PSU Tier List by @STRMfrmXMN who is no longer logging in. Credit to them for the initial list as it existed on 24 October 2018 when this thread went live.

    Rustic Wooden PC
    (I'll think of a better name later  )
     

     
    The Theme:
    Been wanting to do a build like this for quite some time now. The idea was to create something modern out of something very old while retaining the naturally aged and rusted look. Sort of like a cross between a ‘rat rod’ and a vintage antique. As a secondary goal, I wanted this to be able to sit on a desk or be mounted to a wall with multiple orientation possibilities.
     
    As with most of my project builds as of late, I had to piece this together on a shoestring budget. So if you were expecting an i7-8700k with a 1080Ti, you’ll have to look elsewhere. The CPU may be from late 2010, but it’s still capable even today and is kind of a unique part, which you’ll find out why later.
     
    Specs:
    AMD Phenom II x4 960T quad-core - FX 8350 Black Edition @4.6GHz
    Deepcool Gammaxx 400 with GF120 fan
    MSI 970A-G43 Plus - MSI 970 Gaming
    8GB (2x 4GB) Patriot 1866mhz RAM - 8GB (2x 4GB) AData 1333mhz RAM @1600mhz 
    160GB Seagate 7200rpm HDD - (will be switching to a 120GB SSD + 2x 1TB Seagates for the final reveal).
    MSI GTX 760 2GB OC with modified cooler
    CoolerMaster V650 Gold semi-modular
    Chassis - Old wooden hardware crate + motherboard tray from old Dell desktop
     
    The Build:
    Found quite a few old wooden crates in the basement and garage when we moved to my grandfather’s farm about 2 years ago. Not sure how old they are, but some of them looked like they’ve been through a lot, to say the least. After some test fitting, eventually found one that was just the right size and appearance.
     
    Established an internal layout I was happy with and began the fabrication work on the motherboard tray. Mounted that to the crate and made the appropriate cutouts to the “worst” side of the crate. My OCD had me wanting to make the cuts straight as possible, but with the theme in mind, I decided to leave it more rough. Most things made of wood that have survived as long as this crate are far from perfect after so many years of use and abuse.
     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     
    Up next on the agenda is to figure out how to fasten the PSU in place and start working on how to design the cable management. Being a semi-modular unit, I can’t remove the EPS, PCIe and 24-pin cables, but I definitely want to cover them up with some kind of conduit or sleeving.
     
    Oh and also, every metal part in this build is going to receive some ‘special treatment’. More on that later…
     
    Thanks for looking.

    Well, for Ryzen, you want 3000MHz to get the best performance, and Intel anything over 2400MHz.
  24. Agree
    adamgasth reacted to ZeouLs in i3-8350K vs i5-8400 for Quake champions   
    Afaik 8350 has a higher base clock speed but 2 cores less. Then again 8500 supports faster memory than 8350. I think I personally would go for the 8350K since it is already 4GHz on all 4 cores and I have room for more with the K variant and Intel doesnt benefit much from high clock speed RAM
