KerrBeeldens got a reaction from Tech_Dreamer in Ryzen 3rd gen build
Hello, I'm pleased to show off my new PC (and first PC I build from scratch. I would like to thank this forum in general (and the people on it) that helped me with all the trouble I've had with it.
The specs of the build are:
Ryzen 5 3600 CPU
GTX 1070 (Aero) GPU
Gigabyte Aorus B450 I Pro Wi-fi Motherboard
G.skill Trident Z 2x8gb 3600mhz RAM
Be Quiet! Pure Power 11 600 watt PSU
Thermaltake core P1 case
Crusial 512GB 2.5 sata SSD
Samsung 500GB 970 evo M.2 SSD
One last question I would like to ask: what would you do to improve the look of this PC? I don't mean obvious things like taking of the sticker from the tempered glass (sorry about that) or tidying the cables, but more creative/orginal ideas.

KerrBeeldens got a reaction from Epimetheus in Ryzen 3rd gen build
I tried vertical mounting my GPU (case got brackets and PCIE extension cable with it) but it didn't look that great at first glance. I swapped it out because I had to swap my GPU out quite a few times and it was just easier that way. Might try it again do now the build is finished, just to give it another change.

KerrBeeldens got a reaction from TheGlenlivet in PC doesn't boot into BIOS
I actually figured out the problem, which was slightly more obvious then I expected. I was badly informed on my motherboard's compatibility with Ryzen 3rd gen. I thought it meant that it was compatible straight out of the box, BIOS updated and all, but it wasn't. I borrowed my brothers 1st gen Ryzen CPU, updated the BIOS to an update that did support 3rd gen Ryzen et voilla, it works!

KerrBeeldens got a reaction from superwolfkin in White motherboard suggestions AM4
Thanks! The ROG is a bit to expensive, should have clarified my budget (around 100-150), but the Gigabyte is quite nice. As the case is black only with silver rods holding the tempered glass, going for a black and silver build would be a viable option. Do you happen to know any other silver/black mobo's?
