    FavoringWinter got a reaction from Yuri12 in What can I do or change for my build to be optimal for gaming?   
    For modern games, I would say go ahead and start fresh. sucks, but the motherboard doesn't have much of an upgrade path ahead.

    I was wondering if there is a certain way to delete CRU (custom resolution utility)

    Looks great. One suggestion, you should upgrade your mousepad to a full deskpad. It seems dumb, but it is really nice

    Just wondering, what don't you like about the controller? is there something wrong with it, or do you just not like it, and where did you get the controller

    Do you have any startup programs on an HDD?  For example if you installed Discord on your HDD D:\ drive, when Windows starts it needs to access that slow drive to get everything set up.
     
    No idea if you have, just offering ideas.

    I wouldn't use that psu, Try and get a good quality 450w  psu  as that would be more then enough

    you should be able to find a m.2 standoff for sale somewhere online, I would try that before anything else

    You can swap the switches, but it will involve desoldering the switches off the pcb, and then soldering new switches back on, which can be pretty tricky without experience working with soldering irons previously

    do you have a gpu in the system? If you do not, than that is why as the ryzen 3600 does not have integrated graphics.

    what is your price limit? I would try to go with either g pro wireless or viper ultimate, but those are expensive. The Pwnage Ultra Custom is a little bit cheaper, but still very nice. Also what games do you play?

    FavoringWinter got a reaction from ProjectBox153 in How far can I oc with a Wraith spire?   
    Just like any overclocking, start small and slowly work your way up to where you are comfortable at. I don't know exactly how much you can overclock it as that depends on the cpu most of the time.

    FavoringWinter got a reaction from itisme911 in Cpu and Gpu never on 100% need help   
    try and check temps with hwmonitor, but also upgrade your ram. You should get atleast 3200mhz, but aim for 3600mhz. Ryzen likes fast ram.

    Looks good  hope you enjoy it. For hdd you can get a seagate barracuda 2tb for around  50 usd, which should more than enough space for everything.  Just remember to give yourself plenty of time to build becuase you don't want to rush anything. But don't worry, it is surprisingly easy if you do some basic research

    Two things. Usually you can only run one XMP profile, 1 or 2, not both. So that seems to be normal and no concern. 
    Also, did you really buy a great wall / wallmart psu?  those are average at best (I just read GN "it won't blow up" review) and it's just not adequate for the rest of your system, so if you have issues that's where I'd suggest to start.

    FavoringWinter reacted to porina in Rant: whoever is doing (Intel) Gigabyte bios's is ducking annoying   
    I found this amusing until I realised I have the Z490 Elite AC in my latest build. Picked it on a recommendation in another thread here, based on balance of price and the VRM isn't total garbage. Haven't got around to OC it at all yet. Wonder if it behaves similarly.

    I would recommend trying to get a 5600x or waiting one more generation as the 2600 is still a pretty good processor.

    The clicks on the new ones (including Quartz and Mercury) have been improved massively according to Razer. The Quartz is a Razer store exclusive, so it should be available everywhere in the EU.

    Razer viper ultimate  Quartz. Great sensor, some people like the clicks some don't (some find it squishy) safe shape. 150 usd though, don't know if it is available internationally
