Yeah I have some of the inwin Polaris fans. They're pretty nice IMO, I love that they daisy chain together which was one of the main selling points to me.

depends on if you're hyper compettetive.
if you want pure reaction time and your pc can give you 240 FPS in fortnite then get the 240Hz
if you use it for other thins than fortnite and you want some better graphics and your pc can handle 1440p games at 144 fps then i'd suggest the 1440p monitor

do you know how expensive eGPU? 

I call BS... this is a prediction from a market analyst for a phone that is still in the prototyping phase at one of the most secretive R&D companies on the planet. We "usually" don't start getting accurate leaks until phones start hitting the supply chain 4-6 months before release. Apple is a lot of things, but not stupid. 

You'd be better off mounting 3 along the bottom pulling fresh air right into the GPU

great thanks
i will check it out instead of buying alienware
 

mm okay makes sense
 

i have.. no idea
 
ok so i checked it. 
nonetheless. 
 
but getting a beefier gpu also means i can use it for better pc gaming when not in vr
or is that idea again farfetch'd?

i'm sorry.. :( the math doesn't really add up to me 
if i'm asking for too much.. u don't have to reply :( i dont want to be a burden (i'm not being melodramatic here)
 
so..um, an hdplex 400w dc-atx psu.
what battery to power it?

i dont see the li-po density,so i cudnt emulate ur calculations. 
cud u plss explain if and how this will work..?
 
i've compiled a list of the pc components -
i5-9600k, asus rtx 2060 super evo (dual fan) (but it's 2.7 slot) OR asus rtx 2060 super turbo (blower fan but only 2 slots). team t-force dark z 8gb*2 16 gb 3000mhz ram, intel 760p m.2 512gb, phanteks 22cm gpu riser cable, msi mpg z390-I gaming edge ac mobo, noctua nh L9i 

oh.. then that's alright. i actually wasnt aware of it getting its power from the usb cable.
95W i5-9600k+ 175W rtx 2060S
ah it's the same..
 
thanks... :) 

hey! no! u got me wrong :/
that power bank is the power source for the vr headset - as i read somewhere. i feel utterly stupid and my net is bad i am unable to extract vr headset tdp and calculate how long it'll run on the power bank 
but if that's the case, i guess it wont do what i thought it would
 
 
pls tell me if the vr headset actually needs an additional power source.
 
 
this is the power supply i mentioned for the actual pc components ! this powers my mobo, cpu, gpu 
i know i chose a very big one, but it's only for example 
this wud do, right? power the pc components? then u cud power the the dc-dc psu with dc batteries which u charge n the go
 
a user @Kilra mentioned, this Turnigy High Capacity 14000mAh 6S 12C Lipo Pack w/XT90 cud be used for an hdplex 400 dc-atx, so two in case we consider the dcplex 800 dc-atx? 
i just think if one goes for better components 400 wud fall short by a terribly low margin
 
thanks though for all your help...

thanks ! this is actually great. 
i was considering a beefier gpu, like a 2060..? coz, better vr performance at higher fps? tell me if i'm wrong. 
 

Ah okk I'm checking out their site right now. 
This is the only feasible power supply 
https://hdplex.com/hdplex-800w-dc-atx-with-16v-63vdc-input.html
The other two are 400 or 200
To power it. A large capacity DC battery. Which is those Li-Po batteries Ur telling me of (just confirming, those mean Lithium Polymer right?)
 
I'll check out huge batteries for the pc afterwards then. For the headset, I read this gives 5-6 hours of gameplay.

I found this frame on the same page 
https://www.amazon.com/L-I-C-BackPack-shoulder-straps-waistbelt/dp/B000KD3GTE?tag=mbnx2-20&ascsubtag=UUvrUdUnU37985YYm
 
So.. how does one get an ITX mounting frame? Once that's bolted down, all u gotta do is mount the hardware, fasten it, and find it a ventilated cover with futuristic bag like looks , rite? Maybe some more backplates for the power supply 
This demands serious digging and another thread here ?
 
Ikr!!!

Hey, is there a good DC - DC PSU? From a company of reputation? 
 
And what are the big big big Li-Po batteries ? Like, cud u give me a link to one so I can see them? And
How exactly would the hot swapping work ? Two batteries is connected to the PSU, I hot-swap one while the other remains connected so I don't lose power but I end up get more power ? Or.. some other way ? I'm sorry I'm a bit unknowledgeable in here parts.. in this

That isn't the point. I was talking about a DIY one. A good one u cud possibly assemble urself 

Um well.. so 
I had in my mind a backpack pc 
This is mainly for information which I'm not using in the near future, only a discussion because I was curious 
Its a vr backpack idea 
It's not about whether I should or should not, if it's any good or not 
I'm just interested in it 
 
So. How does anyone go about assembling a whole pc in their backpack? Is it possible to do it urself like the companies do?
 
I was thinking, metal frame with metal backplate. Motherboard goes on top of it. 
Applying a hook kind of thing to prevent GPU sag (which I feel WILL happen) 
The power supply base attached to the frame 
 
The bag can be covered by a 3d cover kinda thing, with massive ventilation on  sides with maybe a couple pwm slim fans to give air to the GPU and the heatsink (only if no AiO)
 
I was thinking, to provide free air to the air cooled GPU and the CPU can have a heatsink or maybe an AiO '_' ? Fitted to the upper (or maybe on the bulging part of this "backpack") radiator mount 
A power supply at the bottom fitted properly? I was wondering if it's possible to have large capacity hot swappable batteries for the whole pc? Otherwise the power cord will be the only thing coming in between free vr movement 
A decent capacity battery next to it to power the vr headset for hours (I found one recommend on another site , can't quite find it right now)
 
Rest ram, m.2 storage because well. U know why. 
 
Works?
it seems so Farfetch'd ? 
 
Tell me if I'm certified crazy or a person with resources cud make this With some craftsmanship, of course

Linus actually talked about this on LAN show and he did what I would do. He would buy the newest gen card out and then sell it 4-6 weeks before the new one would come out, that way the card retained way more of its value on the secondary market and the money he gets out of it will put a huge dent in the next cards price tag. So if I was you I would buy a card to get you up and running and then sell it before the new stuff actually drops that way you can get the most money for your used gear as possible. I have a 2080ti and will likely put it up for sale about a month or so before the next gen comes out

If RGB is put everywhere, I want RGB condoms

This build is great! 
I would suggest you use an RTX 2070 or 2070 Super which I hope fits in that same price of the 5700XT. 
 

he had it coming

I've been using Asus boards in most of my builds and never had any issues with them.
 
The build that I did for my brother not that long ago uses B350-F with R5 3600 running at 4.1Ghz with no issues whatsoever.
 
Same goes for my personal build with Asus Prime Z370-A (is somewhere in the mid range Z370 board category) yet I don't have any issues running 8700k at 5Ghz in it.
 
Asus Bios is always straight forward for me.

just another "one bad product = company is crap" one-poster, nothing to see here.

I can speak from experience in the one month i owned the Masterbox MB520 that it is one of the worst cases I have ever used (I have had worse cases, but they all costed like 20 or 30 bucks, so i got what i paid for) . Yes it has RGB, but the design allows virtually no airflow through the tiny vents on the side. Whatever air DOES get through though, is almost completely unfiltered as the mesh is super coarse. It could at best block some hair from going in, but dust streaks appeared on the side beside the fans just over a week after i had it. The ARCYLIC front got easily scratched and lasted a matter of 10mins before it got scuffed while building. Cable management is OK, nothing exceptional.
 
The fact that i no longer use the case shows how i feel about it.
 
But this case retails for 85USD on newegg. for $5 more you are much better off getting a Fractal Design Meshify C TG which goes for 90USD, and IMO looks alot better.
