  1. I would suggest getting a the B450 Tomahawk from MSI because that is all the 3600 needs. Also, it has BIOS flashback so you won't need a Zen or Zen+ CPU to update the BIOS. Please dont do that. Get the H500 instead and spend the money elsewhere. Or a Meshify C from Fractal Design as NZXTs H-series cases do not have the best airflow. Yes. Yes it is. I mean... sorry, but I wouldnt do this. If you are willing to spend that much just for the RGB (which I fully understand, I was the same once), then fine, but the 3600 will not need an AIO. A Hyper 212 (or even stock cooler if you are not going to OC) should do just fine. Just my opinion. Also, is PCPartPicker available for your country? Its a great website for parts lists with an integrated compatibility check. This is not an ad lol.
  2. Hi all, I am planning a new build soon, so I came to the question of motherboards for a R5 2600. I have heard many great things about the Tomahawk, but thought I should still ask. Prices here in Germany: Tomahawk: 110-115€ Steel Legend: 100-105€ Gaming Pro AC: always about 140€ I will (most likely) get 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance LPX memory @3200MHz. Of course I woild like to save some money and go with one of the cheaper boards, but if the Gaming Pro AC is worth the €€ more, then I could get it. Thanks, Catchears
  3. Hi all, I am searching for an adblocker for chrome on my S9 (running latest software). Do you happen to know of a good one? I really have no idea. Thanks, Catchears
  4. I believe the RTX 2080Ti is the king of consumer GPUs.
  5. Should be fine, not sure about cooler/ram clearance. Have you tried using PCPartPicker before?
  6.

  7. Do you need a monitor? If no which one do you have? Location? Which games?
  8. The Corsair RGB hub and a Corsair Lighting Node Pro would do the trick.
  9. TLDR: I misread something on your screenie. Go to 3. 1. Have you put your RAM sticks in the right DIMMs on your MoBo? It should tell you which DIMMs to use on the board and in the manual. Yes --> Continue No --> Put the sticks in the right DIMMs and read the manual next time! I'm not sure --> Watch a youtube tutorial on how to build a PC and focus on the RAM installation. I lost the manual and there is no nice image next to the DIMMs on the MoBo --> Find the manual on the interwebs and read it. Keep manuals. It saves both my and your time. 2. Are you sure you bought a 8GB kit? Yes --> Continue. No --> Downloadmoreram.com is fake. 3. Blame me for missing a detail on your photo. On the second photo, it says 8GB. I dont know about the first photo, but it looks to me as if Windows has cached some files in your RAM and you possibly had other programmes running when you took the screenshots. When W10 says "Available RAM" it means "RAM which W10 is not currently using". Is it possible that you have a hidden process running somewhere (i.e. malware)? Sorry I cannot help you further than this, Catchears

  13. The MSI B450 Tomahawk or MSI B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC would be a better choice. Greetings from Germany, Catchears
  14. Well in certain contries yes, but maybe not in others.
  15. Nah, "bottlenecking" is overrated, if you will be gaming, it should be fine.
  16. Any RX580 8GB from Sapphire or the Asus Strix one.
  17. Ok, no problemo. And yes, if possible I am trying to find a photo with them lit. Thanks, Catchears.
  18. Would you reccomend getting this GPU instead and possibly a better PSU?
  19. Hi all, I am looking to build my own PC soon so I thought I'd consult you lot. Here we go! 1. Budget & Location About 650€. I am located in Germany. 2. Aim GTA V (although I dont think that Im going to hit 144fps constantly anyway). Occssionally I also play minecraft with friends, but thats not a major factor. 3. Monitors I already have a 1080p 144hz monitor. I dont plan on upgrading it / getting another one soon. 4. Peripherals I already have a keyboard and a mouse. That'll do. 5. Why are you upgrading? Beacause my 2011 macbook can't game anymore. Well... Depends if you count 10fps in minecraft as "gaming". Other Info: I already have a Corsair 280X and a ASRock B450M Steel Legend MoBo which I got cheap during a deal at a local retailer, so I will probs use those. Thanks, Catchears
  20. If you want more performance/"future proofing" then dont focus on the looks. Also, you still have not told us your location, so I could not have known that.
