So, I've learned that what I'm looking for is not "portable desktop with built in monitor" but -briefcase computer- But I would still like some input into the best way to mount everything inside the case. Also, AIO or tower cooler that is helped with suspension like fishing line. Worried about the AIO and traveling/ leaking.

Being on vacation for a week and starting grad school next fall has me yearning for a portable Desktop. I haven't had any luck finding anything online for a case that also has a monitor built in. I loved the idea of the Asus mothership but.....6 grand... I was thinking something like a pelican case for the structure. Anyone know of any threads or tips? I wish @ltt would do something like this.

1.4 is like the max. temps are all within range. peaking at 73. and the 1.355 is a ramp up i started at 1.3 and went up by 0.005 each until it was stable for that 2 months.

I built a new computer a few months back and thought I finally got it fixed because it hasn't frozen in like 2 months. The RGB lights freeze so I assume it's an overclocked CPU issue vs overclocked GPU issue. (overclocked EVGA 2080 hybrid) I just increased the volts to 1.355 running 5ghz on I7-9700K. LLC set to extreme on gigabyte. avx to -4 I believe. (This doesn't happen in wow but in apex legends.) Could it be the power supply? It's the old supply unit from my old rig. It's a EVGA supernova G3 850 watt.

I can try increasing the uncore, i thought gigabytes LLC is like how linear the power delivery is, higher LLC means less flucuations.

I had it at 47 like gigabyte said, went to 45, then 44. went back and forth with turbo vs extreme. honestly was just pulling at strings trying to get intel XTU to run at all. that pre OC was for the cpu correct.

I've been playing around with overclocking results and finally found a stable-ish build but was hoping for some input. Below is my computer specs. I'm running at 1.37 volts and the only time I've been leery so far and shut down the test was with cinebench when it spiked core temps to mid 80s per HWMonitor. Otherwise temps sit between 60 and 70 maybe blipping to 78 ish on spikes. My biggest problem was intel XTU did not want to run and would freeze immediately after hitting benchmark. First time it ran was with 1.37 volts. I know 1.4 is like absolute max but wanted some input. I followed the gigabyte OC pdf with these settings: clock ratio 50 uncore 44 gigabyte load line calibration on extreme (one up from turbo) TJMAX still on auto -----The following disabled---- VTD and intel graphics intel speed shift CPU enhanced halt C3, C6/7, C8, C10 Enhanced multi core performance Intel turbo boost Aorus pro wifi i7-9700k with thermal grizzly kryonaut paste kraken x72 cooler with 3 push fans (how much would adding 3 more for pull decrease temps considering spiking temps?) EVGA 2080 xc hybrid OC to +140 and +1100 stable (downclocked by 10 and 100 for safety/ reliability) 16gbs 3600 -- 15 clock ram XMP is enabled 1tb nvme ssd 1tb normal ssd case is cooler master h500m two intake 200mm 140mm intake 2080 aio rad in front of intake 200mm one exhaust 140mm the three 120s as push-exhaust for the kraken EDIT: My heaven scores went from 194.1 and 4890 pre OC to 194.8 and 4908 so is overclocking even worth it for gaming?

Thank you so much for showing me where the argb headers are on the mobo. The mobo is for sure the scariest part of the build for me. I do need the riser cable for sure. I'm using EVGAs 2080 hybrid. So after using the forums I've decided to use the 200mm fans as intake, 360 aio rad up top with noctua nf-f12 - 2000 industrial fans and the gpu 120 aoi on the back of the case as exhaust too.

Building a new computer with the CoolerMaster H500M. From what I've read, fans with a few, thick, blades are for pressure and thinner blades with more of them are for airflow. I'm going to mount the cpu aio to the front with the cases stock 200mm x2 fans. Then the radiator then 3x ??? fans inside. So, What style fans should I use in a pull configuration? Any suggestions on brands?

So a bit off topic now. Just to quickly shut down whatever were arguing about... I already have the G3 PSU so I'm not gonna buy another. It's worked fine for the last year.

I'm torn between the CoolerMaster m500h $200 and the mb511rgb $80. Build specs below. I've spent about 5 hours looking at various cases and only found a few that I really liked. My build will last me about 6 years based on the longevity of my current rig and I know that I'll have to look at and touch the case every single day. The m500h is expensive but maybe an 9/10 vs 7/10 for aesthetics. The 200mm fans are gorgeous to look at. Then there's the m500h built in vertical GPU bracket and sag bar. And the m550h has much more room inside when I take out half the not needed PSU shroud and HDD bracket (PSU will still be shrouded.) So the price lessens slightly with the price of $60 ish dollar name brand vertical GPU bracket/ cable that I would have to buy for the mb511 but am I making an ok choice to buy solely what looks better? i7-9700k with 360 aio Nvidia 2080 EVGA hybrid (120 aio) Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi one m.2 1TB one 1TB ssd EVGA G3 Supernova 850 PSU 144 htz 2560x1440 monitor

I kind of want to lock all cores at 4.9. I don't want to overdo it or anything and safety of the chip is 10/10. The z390 aorus pro Herman suggested seems awesome. So you don't think a lower cas latency with slower ram is better?

My plan is for a case with 3 fans up front, 3 up top for the CPU aio, and two sandwiching the gpu aio. Maybe one at the back bottom if it has room. Might have to go with 2 fans up front to fit a disk drive.

The EVGA 650 G3 supernova

Hey guys, Building my first rig as my current one came from IBuyPower. Looking for some help especially with which motherboard to choose. The latest from intel including a leak about their 10nm chips not coming until 2022 leads me to choose the 9th gen I7-9700k for gaming. From the research I've done, games don't tend to care too much about threads to warrant the extra 140 ish for the I9-9900k. Below is what I have planned, any tips or feedback is greatly appreciated! 144 htz monitor with 2560x1440 native resolution-- already have (Nvidia GeForce -always- wants to upscale to 3600xwhatever resolution) EVGA 650 powersupply-- already have I7-9700k with kryonaut paste and 360mm aio (aio is probably overkill but the price from 240 with 2 fans to 360 with 3 fans wasn't much at all) Nvidia 2080 with hybrid setup from manufacturer like EVGAs and vertical mount bracket. (It's like 150 more for the hybrid addition but from what I've read it's worth it.) I can't remember the ram speed/clock I picked out but I believe it was a DDR4 2800 with 15 lag whatever. It ended up being like 9.07 clock. I believe 9 is the average clock for manufacturers right? Please have mercy, I'm new to this. 1TB m.2 SSD as boot drive to go along with my 1TB Sata SSD as backup. (Possibly overkill with the large m.2 boot drive but I've had a lot of issues in the past with windows being slow to talk between drives and 1TB is all I need for my whole system.) Again, Not sure what motherboard to choose. I think that's all the parts aside from fans, maybe a fan controller, and a disk drive for redbox.
