@Hinjima Thank you!

Thank you for your answer! It's good to know that 850w would be enough!) Could you please suggest me better alternatives for adata core reactor II 850? For example, is Thermaltake Toughpower GF3 1000W (there's no 850w in stock so I mentioned a 1000w model) better in terms of quality? It's only a few $ more than adata I mentioned above.

Hello! I just ordered 7900xt sapphire pulse, within a few weeks I'll also get a ryzen 7800x3d, ak620 zero dark to cool it and a b650 asus tuf plus wifi mobo, 2x16gb 6000 cl30 ram, 2tb adata s70 ssd. Initially I was planining to get a 7800xt but I found a pretty sweet deal for a 7900xt so I went with it. For 7800xt I wanted to get a 850w adata core reactor II psu, but now that I have a 7900xt, which PSU should I get? In case you'd want to send me a few links - I live in Russia, use https://www.dns-shop.ru/ to look for psu's. Thank you in advance!

So I figured it out... Huge thanks to @Levent for giving me a hint! For anyone facing the same problem in the future - I had to manually set all my ram timings from docp in bios (the exact same values, just manual), and it worked!

So, quick update: afterall I decided to update my bios to latest version... and it didn't fix anything.. Do you guys have any other ideas why it keeps happening and how to fix it?

@Levent Could you please check screenshot from a post above? I'm not sure to what values I should change ram timings

@PC HEROES Hello! First of all, thank you for making this build! Overall i'm happy with what you came up, it's a huge upgrade from my current build! I'd like to mention a few things tho: 1. Since my wife wants her case to be white, most likely I'll have to keep my current case, which is fractal design meshify c black, or sell it and buy something new (looking at fractal design north right now, it looks amazing with my wooden desk, but sadly I found it only for 257$ which is insane). 2. I think this time I want my build to be total black and non-rgb, got tired managing all the cables of rgb fans with it's hub and white cable extensions when I was building my pc last time. I just want it to look simple and clean. Now to the questions I see a lot of adata products in your list, is it due to limited choise of products on dns platform or they're just generally good? During research on what ssd to buy when I was building my pc, I went through multiple reviews saying that you should be careful buying adata products.. But it was quite some time ago and I don't really know if things are the same right now. If i would upgrade in, let's say, 2-4 years from now, could my psu handle it or it's better to go for a ~1.000W now (mostly because of gpu, or am I being a bit crazy?)? I think the upgrade mainly would be to replace just cpu and gpu.. So taking all this into consideration, what would you replace on your list? Also I think you can just choose whatever you want first and then i'll check whether or not I'll be able to buy it in my country and if not i'll let you know so we can get something different then. Also, I found Sapphire AMD RX 7800 XT Nitro+ because I thought it looks better, but now im not that sure since it's more like silver, not black, also it has the same price as gigabyte that you chose. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor ($219.00 @ Newegg) - 229$ CPU Cooler: Deepcool AG620 BK ARGB 67.88 CFM CPU Cooler ($49.99 @ Newegg) - 61$ Motherboard: MSI MAG B650 TOMAHAWK WIFI ATX AM5 Motherboard ($208.00 @ Amazon) - 325$ Memory: ADATA XPG Lancer Blade RGB 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30 Memory ($194.77 @ Amazon) - 181$ Storage: ADATA XPG GAMMIX S70 Blade 2 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive ($139.99 @ Amazon) - 168$ Video Card: Gigabyte GAMING OC Radeon RX 7800 XT 16 GB Video Card ($499.99 @ Newegg) - 784$ Case: ADATA XPG VALOR MESH ARGB ATX Mid Tower Case - 85$ Power Supply: ADATA XPG Core Reactor II 850 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply ($120.18 @ Amazon) - 157$ Total: 1990$ (converting from rub to usd). It's funny how different prices for mobo and gpu are..) It's still fine tho, since I can buy Sapphire AMD RX 7800 XT Nitro+ for 324$ and cover the rest with my bonuses on other platform.

@ki8aras tbh i dont think i want to build am4 rn just because i i'd like to have an option to upgrade further in the future and from what i know there's one and only option 5800x3d, meaning that i'll need to change everything later when i'll need a better cpu, right?

what do you think, is it worth going for am5 if we're talking about building from 0?

Right now they're like this. They resetted to default when i updated bios, but i changed it after so rn it's like it used to be before any updates

My build: CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1660 Ti A6G Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X570-P RAM: G.Skill TRIDENT Z RGB [F4-3200C16D-16GTZR] 2x8 PSU: Corsair TX550M (550W) Case: FRACTAL DESIGN Meshify C Blackout TG CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12-S SSD: A-Data XPG GAMMIX S11 Pro 1Tb HDD: WD Blue 1Tb Monitor: AOC 24v2q (75hz) I was sitting in windows 10 with my old bios and it was fine But some time ago i decided to update bios to 4802 (atm they released one more version - 5003, but i didn't do anything yet), and also switch to windows 11. After that I'm facing a weird issue - when i press power button, sometimes my pc won't boot at all: fans in pc all lit up and spin, but other peripherals don't even lit up (keyboard, for example), my monitor also black. When this happens, i just restart pc and usually that problem goes away. I'm lost, don't know what to do with it, it's so annoying and i don't really like the fact that this problem even exist, help me figure out a solution to this, please

Budget (including currency): 1.000-1.500$ max for both pc's Country: Russia Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming - LoL, dbd, hunt, valorant, diablo/poe, new titles (me) / Web Design + Streaming (just to try it out) + Gaming - LoL, but she'd like to try out new things since rn she can't because of her laptop (my wife) Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): My current build is: CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1660 Ti A6G Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X570-P RAM: G.Skill TRIDENT Z RGB [F4-3200C16D-16GTZR] 2x8 PSU: Corsair TX550M (550W) Case: FRACTAL DESIGN Meshify C Blackout TG CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12-S SSD: A-Data XPG GAMMIX S11 Pro 1Tb HDD: WD Blue 1Tb Monitor: AOC 24v2q (75hz) My wife's build: Old laptop lenovo ideapad 310-15ikb (upgraded with more ram and a brand new 2.5'' ssd which i plan to use in her new pc) and the exact same monitor as mine. So I plan to upgrade my current pc and build a new one for my wife. She's currently using her old laptop which i upgraded a bit (added more ram and installed an ssd so it at least can function normally). At the moment my wife is grinding her way to become a web designer, but she hates being forced to work on her slow laptop that barely works with Figma file with just a few items inside it.. She also likes to play LoL with me, but that's the only game out of others that she can play due to how slow and old her laptop is.. And recently she told me that her little dream was to try out streaming (maybe it will be a one-time thing, maybe not), so I also would like to mention that. As for my pc - I just want to be able to play literally anything that i'd like right now if i get the chance since i feel like my build have gotten a bit old. I'm not talking 4k ultra settings 60+ fps, but maybe 2k (in the future when i upgrade my monitor) gaming with smooth expirience. I never really used any crazy ultra settings in my games, only in few of those that can run smooth enough even on ultra, I generally prefer to have more fps overall, squeze out every single fps I can get and play without stutters and all that kind of stuff rather than enjoy a pretty picture sitting on 30-60fps So most of the times I play on low-medium settings rn.. I use my macbook pro for work, so I don't plan to use pc for that, so it's one and only purpose is gaming i suppose. And finally to the point - I got stuck at "what should i do with my pc - use some of it's parts in my wife's pc (like gpu, cpu, psu, ram?) or just sell them and buy new parts for myself and for my wife.." I'm not even sure where to start, which parts to look for, and is it even worth to reuse anything or i just sell part of it and get a new parts for both pc's.. In terms of budge - we can go a bit beyond 1-1.5$k only if the outcome would be not to reuse anything from my pc to build a second one. So i can build my wife a new pc and a bit later upgrade my own. But if we'll decide to reuse some of my current parts, then i'd like to stay in 1.5$k max, since i'll have to buy all at once. Thank you for reading that post! Any help appreciated!

@LaughingHyena That's good. I also saw his video about Corona fans, that's why I included them to my list, since there's not many ring-rgb fans and these actually looks pretty nice for their price) Do you have any expirience with rgb fans? I'd like to ask if you know how to install them properly directly to motherboard and is there any limit on how many fans I can plug to a single header on mobo?

@LaughingHyena, unfortunately they are available only in one of my local stores and not in packs. They are also very expensive (like 30$ per 1), I would like to consider the cheaper options.

Hi everyone. Currently I'm buying parts for my new pc and I got stuck on choosing fans (ring-rgb) for my cpu cooler and case.. I need your help ?. CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 GPU: ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1660 Ti A6G Motherboard: ASUS PRIME X570-P RAM: G.Skill TRIDENT Z RGB [F4-3200C16D-16GTZR] 2x8 PSU: Corsair TX550M (550W) Case: FRACTAL DESIGN Meshify C Blackout TG CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12-S Fans (for both cpu cooler and case): PCCooler Corona FRGB 120/140 or ID-Cooling ZF-RGB-12025/14025 What can you say about these 2? Are they bad? Which has better airflow and bright rgb (that's not as important as airflow, but still nice, since I'm getting a blackout version of meshify c)? I'm thinking of buying like 7 of these and putting 1x120 on my noctua u12-s, 1x120(rear) and 2x140(top) for exhaust and 3x120/2x140(front) for intake. I hope that's not overkill tho ? 1. Can I replace noctua's fan with any of listed above? Will the temps go up and etc? I'm not planning to manually OC my CPU (not yet at least.. maybe in 1-2 years when I'll be thinking about my next upgrade), just auto OC or w/e it's called. But it'll be good to know if they're good enough to handle like 3900x with u12-s in the future. 2. I have no expirience at all with RGB so I dont know if I'll be able to connect them to rgb heards at my mobo and sync them via Aura Sync with my RAM and GPU. I dont have my mobo yet so I can't read it's manual rn :c Do I need to buy a hub/controller for them (and if so how can I sync them later with my other parts?) or in my case with x570 prime p mobo 2x 3-way splitters should be enough for case fans (dont know what to do with cpu rgb tho, cuz im not sure if i can plug it in with my case fans to one splitter..)? I know that there's 2x 4pin rgb headers and 1x 4pin ARGB header, but im also not sure in which header I need to plug them.. Probably in ARGB, but can it handle all of my 7 fans tho? I was checking some photos of rgb builds on prime x570-p and I noticed that none of them was using mobo rgb headers (not even the ARGB one.. maybe I couldn't see one because of cables, not sure).. but they still had a fully synchronized rgb. Im curious. Thank you for your help and time in advance ?

Ok, got it. Thank you very much for you help, sir!

Yeah, there's only one noctua cooler and it's u12s, then i'll buy this one) Do you know how to run this corsair vengeance rgb pro (or basically any other) kit at 3200mhz? I know that there's such thing as XMP. All i need to do is enable it and select a profile that i need? Also if my kit is 3200, can i get it to 3400 or 3600 via xmp profiles or for this i'll need to manually oc it? I never used it before so sorry if that's a stupid question ?

Yeah, dark rock 4 / dark rock pro 4 (but this one is a bit too much) if we are talking about be quiet. But im not sure if there will be some space left for ram, because as i remember one of these has some problems with blocking ram slots..

Hi! I recently started building my new pc. What i got atm (the other parts are irrelevant since they're old and should be replaced anyway, but if you are interested - i5 4460k, cheap cpu cooler, cheap asus mobo, ddr3 hyperx fury 8gb x2, few stock case fans): gpu: asus strix 1660 ti psu: corsair tx550m I decided to go for gpu + psu first since that's the only parts i can upgrade by pieces and now it's time to buy the other parts at once... Wanted parts: cpu: r5 3600 cpu cooler: ID-Cooling SE-207 / be quiet! Dark Rock Slim mobo: gigabyte x570 aorus elite / asrock x570 steel legend / asus x570-p ram: 2x G.Skill Trident Z Royal (24000 - 16-18-18-38) 8gb / 2x CORSAIR Vengeance RGB PRO (25600 - 15-15-15-36) 8gb case: aerocool quartz rgb with stock fans My budget is 800$ max, but i'd really like to go way lower than that.. (i'll use ssd and hdd from my current pc and upgrade them later) Im kinda new to pc stuff and I know how to build it, but i dont have enough knowledge to decide which parts would work better in complete build. With that being said.. which mobo / ram / cpu cooler should i buy (feel free to suggest things that's not in the list, i'll check and reply if i can get it)? I really want a room for some upgrades in the future (like in 2yrs probably), that's why im looking at x570 and not b450. The other reason is that i heard that with b450 mobos msi is a way to go, but unfortunately in my country it's hard to get a good one.. Or is there a good non-msi ATX b450 board that i can get and it'll be able to handle 3900x or at least 3800x in the future? Also i'd like to mention since i dont have a discrete sound card im looking for a good one on mobo (i heard that realtek s1220 is good and if im not mistaken it's on mobos that i listed), not sure if intel/realtek lan is any different, but i know that realtek lan had some problems before.. I've noticed that some x570 boards require 24+8+4 pin (which is more than tx550m has), does it mean that my psu is not compatible with these mobos or it will run just fine until i replace my r5 3600 with some high-end cpu which will require more power? I feel like i can save some money on RAM, but not sure how.. Im not familiar with overclocking so i dont know if i should get a 3200mhz ram kit or the one with lower clocks (not sure how it works) and then set it up so it would run at 3200 (afaik that's what i need for r5 3600, right?). Or am im wrong in general? Thank you in advance for your help and your time!!!
