You can try this one. The PC itself, is around $1100. The lowest gpu you should be going for is a 6600. For a use gpu, try to find 6700xt or any gpu with 12gb. Know that you shouldn't get just the cheapest monitor you find. As one of the things pc builders miss is cheapening on psu and the monitor. It does not matter if you have a decent pc, if your monitor is trash, your experience will be one too. So the entry level monitors needs more research actually, what multiple reviews of the product you are interested in before buying it. You can also remove the peripherals that you don't like, but these are a good start to go with, specially the mouse. Keychron is mainly known for "gateway" to affordable mechanical keyboards, but their mice actually punching up, in terms of it's features, as those are comparable to the flagship models of the main gaming brands. I don't know if you are a speaker or headset guy or an audiophile, but either the speaker or headset should be a good start.

Basic troubleshooting. Check drivers, if there's missing or need of update. Try to use ddu to uninstall and reinstall gpu drivers. Update bios. use default settings and remove overclock or/undervolt, if there's any. Disable xmp, and use the default speed 1st, it might be unstable.

Are there any earbuds or headphone/headset that has the same feature or even half of what those mics can do? I need something that I can pair with my phone and not just on my pc and bring to the office or outside, when I go out.

It seems I got the terms mixed up. Well I did say I know nothing about ANC. But it seems what I really wanted is ENC. So the noise that I want block isn't for me, I want to block the noise around me, so that the person I'm talking to or when on a meeting, they won't hear it.

To be fair, iphones are somewhat secured in of itself. But the problem is the cloud. On top of the parental control. It's a bit expensive, but go with variants with bigger storage and disable email,picture/videos,etc icloud backup. Stick to the free 5gb icloud and only use it to back the actual OS. teach them to back up all other stuff locally(my not be that safe, but much more controllable to keep safe than the icloud).

When you say not booting, is it just black screen or you can still go to the bios? Have you tried using another ssd/hhd as your boot drive(install OS on another storage). You also said you tried unplugging everything. But have you tried disassembling from the case, and just place the motherboard on top of a box and try booting it from with the basic and least components? Or check the cables, usb, motherboard or even the front panel connectors, if there's anything that might cause a short? Lastly, does your motherboard have the boot/cpu/gpu/ram led error? It's such a pain that some mid range board don't have it anymore.

Have you tried updating the bios or motherboard and even the gpu? update ssd firmware and probably drivers? uninstalling, old drivers or checked if there's an app installed that's causing a compatibility issue. Or have you tried replacing the CMOS battery with a fresh new one?

I do have decent headphones and headsets. But all are geared towards either to gaming and/or music, none of them have ANC. I work at home now and although it wasn't part of my daily task anymore, to help out, I interview applicants again. So I want to illuminate my background noise. And I don't know man, I can play long hours. But when it comes to work, my ears get sweaty using my heatset all day lol Normally, I would also go with the airpods pro 2 too. But I would also be connecting it my PC(don't have a mac and don't want one). I also have a steam deck and ally, so I'm kind of on the fence with it. But thank you for the info, I will read on xm4 vs xm5, if those issues were fixed. Honestly, I really want to try the Galaxy buds pro 2. It has good reviews on par with xm5 and airpods pro 2 and it's only around $100, more or less here(international variant, I think). But like airpods to iphones, I read that some of it's features are available to Samsung phones only.

I'll be using it everyday. I primarily need ANC as I'm working at home and it's kind of noisy here. I use an iphone but will also pair it with my computer during work. So priorities are; first, ANC. Second, sound quality and lastly, compatibility and feature. This will be my first ANC earbuds and know nothing about about it other than what I've watched and read. My choices are Sony wf-1000xm5, Airpod pro 2 and Jabra elite 10 or if there are other suggestions? My budget is around $200-250 max(or less). By the way, I don't know yet how much the jabra will cost me, but I saw the Sony 1000xm5 and airpods pro 2 in a store near me and with discount, both are around $180-190, including tax when converted.

IF you are talking about the gpu, then yes. it is a x16 so yes. If you are talking about the height clearance, I would still say yes, as it was design to fit a gpu. The screenshot is at top view, if you check at sideview, the pins shouldn't be higher than the pcie slot.

You can work with a 5500, it is decent enough to handle up to 3060/6650xt at 1080p, and the tier higher on 1440p and probably another tier higher at 4k with the current gpus. So if it's as cheap as possible, 5500 should just be fine.

These are decent parts on their own. However, for your budget, specifically psu, that's too expensive for your budget. I for one understand that in general, we should be cheap with psu as it is one of the components that would carry over to multiple builds. But, I think there's a limit to that. First is your budget, while it's true that you can get a better financial disposition in the future, psu shouldn't be more expensive that your CPU. Second, in terms of upgrade path, normally low and mid range build, get low and mid range GPUs, which uses around 250w-300w or lower. Which 650-750w psu are enough. So if you would only build cpu, motherboard and psu. These would probably what would provide more performance at the same $450 budget.

There's really not much to change. What does kind of CPU intensive work does he do? I mean productivity wise, the regular 7950x is better than the 7950x3d since it has a faster clock. Then depending on the workload and what app he is using, if it's also going to be intensive on storage, a nvme with dram would probably be better. As for the peripherals, personally, they're not my first choice. Like the only way I would recommend spending a $100 on keyboard or more in 2024 or even 5years ago is if the keys are hotswappable. Also as mentioned, the monitor doesn't feet the build, it decent. However, depending on the workload or hi job/hobby, specially if it involves or needs color accuracy, that monitor might not deliver it as it might not even be bright enough. But it is a decent gaming monitor.

If you forgo with the white build, you could probably go with this build: PCPartPicker Part List CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D 4.2 GHz 8-Core Processor ($345.00 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE 66.17 CFM CPU Cooler ($33.90 @ Amazon) Motherboard: ASRock B650 LiveMixer ATX AM5 Motherboard ($149.99 @ Newegg) Memory: Silicon Power Value Gaming 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory ($86.99 @ Amazon) Storage: Crucial P3 Plus 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($124.99 @ Amazon) Video Card: Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 7900 GRE 16 GB Video Card ($549.99 @ Amazon) Case: Phanteks XT PRO ATX Mid Tower Case ($49.99 @ Newegg) Power Supply: Cooler Master MWE Gold V2 ATX3.0 1050 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ($119.99 @ Newegg) Case Fan: ID-COOLING AF-125 78.25 CFM 120 mm Fans 3-Pack ($24.99 @ Amazon) Total: $1485.83 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2024-05-11 01:36 EDT-0400

GPU and PSU all the way. Or just get a the highest GPU your budget can afford. 600w would still be plenty, just do undervolt both gpu and cpu, for stability. That motherboard is decent even for a b520. 5800x is still decent and won't bottleneck current mid range gpus specially at higher resolutions. PSU is decent and you can still work around your way around it. Ram, 3600mhz is the sweet spot for 5000 series, but improvement is minute. It would probably better if you just try to tighten the timings and/or try to oc the ram.

You probably just want Ryzen for future upgrade. However for streaming, as of right now your best option is probably a 13700k. But there's no upgrade path with it, since every cpu that's faster than 13700k has the on going issue. As you are not going to play FPS games, you probably don't need 7800x3d(yet), but you do need the cores and threads so you can't get ryzen 5. As for the GPU, if you are thinking of anything streaming. Sad to say, but going nvidia probably solve half the issues that you might encounter. Also between $100-200, better get 16gb vram now. If you are just starting with steaming, you really don't need the highest end, but if you can already get 16gb vs 12gb vram gpu, get the former. As games that needs more vram has already started and would probably be common with the new games that would be coming out. while the case is the cheapest one that already comes with 4fans. I have a neighbor who streams Dota 2 with a decent income(at least that's what he told me since it's the only thing he does), but he still only uses a 3070 card. Honestly, if you have a limited budget, I would probably downgrade the cpu and gpu and probably invest at least $150-$200 for a good mic and acceptable camera. For your mice, you can try Keychron M1 Wireless Mouse. Decent and punch above it's price point.

As mentioned by the first two before me, I doubt you need a new psu. Unless, your current one has any issue that is. My concern is you saying you have a "crappy case with poor airflow." Because the only razor lian li case I know is the O11(unless there's more). And that's a decent case. I had the regular O11 dynamic and my setup was, bottom and side are intake fans, while top is a 360mm aio rad as exhaust. I also added a small 80mm at the rear after watching a video of someone putting two 80mm fans there. Personally to equalized intake and exhaust, I would use a 2500-3000rpm fans on the Radiator and set it up so that it would run 50-60% fan speed on average and would speed to around 70-80% when cpu/gpu temps hit 85c. While the intakes(bottom and side) would be setup to spin in a much slower phase(like a max of 2000rpm fans). So that even if there's 6 of them, it would only be slightly positive pressure. But with this, you might need a really good fans, like the phanteks t30 or thermaltake toughfan turbo and not just a branded expensive RGB fans(as these only adds FPS and not cooling compared to their non rgb counterparts).

If those are new, that's actually a decent build already. If I'm going to nitpick on it, I would probably replaced that PSU and if you still have a few more $, get the dual tower air cooler.

Probably start with this specs and get a used 6600/6600xt. For used CPUs, just don't get any I3s, but get a cpu that's around 12th gen or ryzen 5500(3600) as minimum. Both will have decent upgrade path, as you can get up to 5800x3d or 14th gen cpu for another upgrade that would get you decent uplift in performance.

The science behind it was that the "first" time it got wet, drained the battery or the moisture detection sensor prevents it(if it has one). Which is why it won't turn on. What you should have done is to let it dry, like buy a pack or rice and put it there for a day or two. What killed it is when you tried to charge it while it's still wet. That goes with any appliances or even computer, that shuts off after being wet. If you dry it properly before trying again, there's still a possibility that it would still work. Plugging a wet device would fry it's circuits.

How long did you wait? when you say boot/vga red light, are they cycling? Meaning it changes from boot to vga to ram or are they solid light on one or both of them? Because it's a ryzen, I should expected that you googled this already, but just to be sure, there are times that it would take a long time for the first boot. Lastly, just to be sure(again), is the hdmi/DP connected to the back of the motherboard or the gpu?

It's never about if it's possible. It's a PC component, it's even possible to pair things that's not available on desktop. Remember those ryzen 7 6800u handheld pc/laptops? Those are zen3 but has ddr5 rams. While desktop zen3 like 5000 series motherboards are only paired with ddr4. So it's never a matter of if it's possible, it's a matter if there's anyone want's to do it and will they do it. The question "does it make sense for laptop companies to make Arc/Ryzen laptops" is also not right, it's not wrong, but it's not right. The reason why we see ryzen/nvidia laptops is because nvidia is pushing and actively contracting laptop makers and vise-versa. It's not about not or being possible, it's about intel wanting and doing it. There was also no market for handheld pc just a few years ago until someone made a market for it.

Lanes are just "cords and cables," essentially pathways so data can travel from A to B. Each generation, 1.0 to 5., have different speed speed, which increasing per generation. so basically, the more lanes and higher gen, the faster data can be send. So what limits motherboard makers from adding more lanes? Several, the first being market segmentation and marketing. Simply put, they just have to make a board with lower end specs so that the higher end would be appealing. But why the high end still have a limit? Well that's because it is also tied to chipset design and architecture limitations. So they most work within the confines of the CPU/GPU' pcie allocations. Then you add size and layout on the pcb and lastly of course, is cost, adding more lanes means more controllers and switches. How much it would cost per motherboard if they add more separates lanes, switches and controllers, I don't know. But's one of the reason why you see in most motherboards, when you use all the NVME slot, either a pcie x4 or x1 or sata is disabled, since they are sharing lanes. Hope this answers some of your questions.

A few things you can try: 1 try to scroll down to check if the old E drive is still listed and remove it. 2 Boot in safe mode and try again. 3 check your registry and edit or delete it from there. But I forget path, just google it. 4 It might have been associated with removable drives, try removing and/or inserting usb drives to confirm. 5 Try to rebuild the bcd(again google for the steps).

The last time I saw 6 I/O port on a gaming GPU was on 30 series cards. I believe it was on some highend gigabyte aurus cards. On 40 series, the most I've seen are 5 and that's on the expensive Asus ROG gpus. Other than that, you would probably be looking at pro cards.
