  1. I was watching some YouTube and this happened (see attached). No idea why or how but it happened. That’s all I have to say because I have idea what is going on. Also my pc still works but all I can see is that.

  2. Hi I have been trying to overclock my 9700k to 5Ghz nad evertime i boot into windows to log in I get blue screened. I have multicore enhancemtn off, vcore a 1.3v, all power limits are off, and it just wont boot. I have tried 4.9 and 4.8Ghz with the same settings and it wont work. This is my first time overclocking with intel if that makes a difference. One last thing is I have xmp on.

    get the 3600, The motherboard for it cost less than for 9700k. same with cooling.

     

    Cooling and motherboard for 3600 is cheaper while it performs well in games.

     

     

    I found a motherboard for less that the one I was going to get for the 3600 for the 9700k. With motherboard and cpu price combines the 9700k costs less. Plus I already have a NHU-12s.

  4. I am building a gaming only system and I found a 9700k for the same price as a Ryzen 5 3600. I know intel isn’t the best option these days but a 9700k is better than a 3600. I am leaning towards the 9700k. Also what are some itx motherboards that will be able to overclock this cpu to its max. One more thing will a 650 watt gold psu be enough for the overclocked cpu and a rtx 3070? Thanks.

  5. I looked and i could not find one. I found a website that could print that cpu holder but i am not sure if it s in mm or in. I will look for another one that is specified.

    Is there a local library that can have thing printed?

     

  6. My friend has an extra Ryzen 5 3600 that I am buying off him. The only problem is that he needs to mail it to me and he threw away the cpu holder on accident. Does anybody know if you can contact AMD or buy a new cpu colder of Amazon or something? I all ready tried to find one but I could only find am4 back plates. 

  7. I need help on choosing what wattage and efficiency I need for a system I am building. I am going to have a Ryzen 5 3600 overclocked to 4.2 Ghz and a overclocked RTX 3070. I know the 3070 has not come out yet but i'm sure a educated guess can get close to the wattage that this card will pull. The only restriction that I have is it needs to be a SFX or SFX-L PSU with a max width of 130mm.

    Fractal - $148.90

    CoolerMaster - $110.90

    Which is an better value /option 

    I don't know where you got the NR400's pricing but it is around $60. So if you want to go with value go with the NR400. The real difference between the two is that the fractal one looks better and has fan filters for all intakes. But you can just buy some 280mm mesh filters for the NR400 for around $10 like this one form amazon https://www.amazon.com/287mm-Filter-Computer-Magnetic-2-Pack/dp/B07T615HB6. It's up to you.

    Budget? are you limited to these? location and currency? the x570 aorus elite uses a 12 phase with 12 SIC634 doubled with ISL6617 and the Tuf uses 12 sic639s. 

    For the motherboard I want to spend no more than $200 USD. The only limitation that I have is that I need them to have onboard wifi.

  10. I have narrowed it down to two motherboards. The Asus TUF X570 Gaming Plus and the Gigabyte Aorus Elite. The only differences that I can see are that the Gigabyte one looks better and the Asus one has one more fan header. They are the same price (189usd) and I am not sure witch one has the better vrm (im using a 3700x). If you want to suggest another motherboard am open to any suggestions.

  11. I am in a little bit of a kerfuffle. I want to buy a 3070 don't care if its a founders or custom, but after the 3080 launch I don't know if I am even going to be able to buy one. I live next to a micro center so I can go and sit outside of it the night before but I am sure with the popularity of this card many other people in my area will have the same idea. I have a couple of options one, I wait out side of the store to try and get one. Two I can wait the extra couple weeks or so for Nvidia to properly get stock into online stores. Three I can buy a 2080 ti used for about the same price as a 3070. I really want to get it soon because I only have a 5 year old xbox rn and I really want to get it before the Cold War beta. Help.
