  1. Hello, As the title states, this was my main goal. I think I have achieved this. I play Valorant for a college team currently and this rig is able to runs my games at or above the refresh rate of my monitor of 240hz. The "I just wanna play Esports and have it look pretty" Specs CPU-Intel Core I7-10700K @ 5.0 GHZ CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro X XC7 RGP Water Block Motherboard- Asus ROG Strix-E Z490 Gaming Motherboard.

  2. Hello, After finally finishing my final pc build, I am finding that I need a different PSU. I have had the corsair CX 750 for about three years and it has carried with me in every new build. However, the fan ramps up under any gpu load and the coil whine is to be frank, unbearable. I am looking for a psu that is either fanless or quiet when the fan does spin. Below is my system specs. Another reason I want a new PSU is so I can overclock my CPU My mobo has a 8+4 cpu power and I only have a 8 pin plugged in. According to the mobo manual, this is fine and you need other when overclocking. My RIG Intel Core I7-10700k Asus ROG Strix Z490-E 32GB 8X4 Corsair RGB PRO memory EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 Super XC Ultra Corsair CX750 PSU Full HYRDOX custom watercooling. 9x Corsair LL120 RGB Fans Lian LI 011 Dynamic Razer Edition Case. Dual commander pros. Any recommendation would be greatly appreciated. Obviously I have a preference for corsair integration on their higher end PSU's. Thank you!
  3. Hello, I have a Gigabyte b450 Aorus elite motherboard and just upgraded to the Lian Li 011 Dynamic Razer edition case. The motherboard does not have a type c header on it for the front it. Is there a PCI express card that allows that internal connector to be plugged in to make the front port usable? Thanks
  4. Keep in mind in OBS, i use the NVENC codec for encoding no X264
  5. Hello, I have a few questions to pick the brains of the forum here. My current config is as follows CPU- Intel Core I5 7400 @3.00GHZ MOBO- Asus Prime b250m-A Memory 16GB Corsair Vengence PRO RGB @2400Mhz (limited by mobo) GPU- EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 SC PSU- 500 Watt Storage- Boot- Samsung 970 EVO 250GB Storage - MASS- Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB My use case is this. I play csgo and i have a 144HZ monitor, being that CSGO is a more cpu dependent game, I push about 200 FPS. However, I would like to start to stream/record my gameplay and I feel that my current CPU is holding back. I am never able to consistenly have above 250 fps at all. The other game I play is APEX Legends. While this game whenever I play it pins my CPU at 100% usage. There can be periods of time where the game studders and on task manager the CPU is maxed out whenever I play this game. Is it worth it to spend money on that CPU and new MOBO or should I wait and save up some more for an I7 or i5 9600K? P.S I am not a fan of Ryzen after running into issues with memory compatibility with the same ram that I have on my friends computer. Intel Only
  6. Ive re seated the cpu as well as switched the processor out and tried it both ways. I am truly stuck and this is going on hour 4 now.
  7. I have put the ram in every configuration imagineable. The board supports up to 3200 mhz but the 8GB of ram that is usable is clocked at 2133MHZ. There has to be a issue on the software side. The modules both work because corsair ICUE sees both modules and I can control the LED's on them/
  8. Hello, I have just upgrade my buddys computer from his ryzen 5 1400 to a ryzen 5 2600. The motherboard is a MSI b350m Bazooka. I have already flashed the bios to be able to support the new chip. The processor is fine, however, he also bought 16gb of corsair vengence RGB ram, In the bios, its shows both memory slots are populated with 8192MB of ram in each slot however, the bios is showing only 8192 mb of total ram. In windows, the ram shows 8GB of usable ram but says that there is 16gb of ram installed. Am I missing something?

  10. My CPU never seems to hit or come close to its max turbo frequency. The highest it has ever gone is 3.15 GHZ and it is watercooled with a H60 Any help??? CPU- Intel Core I5-7400 @ 3.00ghz Cooler- Corsair H60 MOBO- Asus Prime B250m-A RAM- 8GB ADATA 2400 GPU- EVGA GTX 1070 SC PSU- 500 WATT 80+
  11. The company in our area is SEMCO, their last pipeline stake stops at the corner of our property. As for the house, our grandparents gave us land to build on and we just finished building our new house. SEMCO wanted 15,000 to finish the pipeline to our driveway then charge more to run it back to our house. This is ridiculous.
  12. Well it inst just the internet, I live a mile of a main road which isnt that far, the thing with the utility company reference is due to the fact that we dont have natural gas, phone lines, jack crap. The thing I do not understand is the next dirt road south of us that connects to the same road and runs parallel, has Comcast, Uverse, and natural gas, and our road has a couple of private drives. I do not understand the logic behind any of these companies what so ever. It makes me and my family angry to a point.
  13. Currently using ATT wireless home internet and pay 60 a month for 25gb's of data. I live a mile from fiber just down a dirt road and nothing unlimited is available. We just moved to our new house and this is what we have for the time being. Utility companies need to get their act together and start being able to service those who need it. I live a hour north of Detroit and this makes me angry. Especially when Detroit has comcast's 2gbps fiber and att fiber. Life can truly suck some times
  14. 1700 hours and only sem. I swear I know blaming teammates for problems is something not to own up to, its just that it seems that whatever game I get in in ranks down here there are constant smurfs and or people that just dont want to play the game to take it seriously. I have been up to GN2 and I play in MG lobbies with friends, and top frag sometimes. It is also a problem being that my internet is a hotspot through an iphone. If you haven't played on one of those yet, the jitter in the ping is insane and there is glitches ever few seconds. Enough excuse the only person I can blame is my self so I cant be complaining.
  15. Good evening everyone. After completing my coaxial cabling in the new house build, it is time to start running ethernet. In my bedroom I have a wall jack for a wall mounted tv that has a slot for coaxial and ethernet (smart tv). The problem I am having is that the keystone jacks that I bought do not work with my tester at all, or anything. They are not making a connection. After watching a lot of youtube videos, people make it look so easy. There must be something that I am missing. I tried getting a female plug to female connector for the wallplate and that worked great, only problem with that is that I have 25 keystone jacks that I have already bought and each female to female adapter is 10 dollars a piece. I need some help as to what I am doing wrong.

I need some help. Also I have another thing to ask of the community, Since this build is new and we want everything ran before dry wall, as for a ceiling mounted access point, what prep work has to be done in terms of cabeling to the point of deployment and about the deployment itself, does it come with a bracket? How do those mount to a rough build. (I plan on there being at least 3 ap's on the network. As always thank you guys some much for your insight! Andrew
  16. Hello everyone, As me and my family are moving closer to building our new house, Me and my dad are wanting to run Ethernet to every room in the house. The only problem I see right now is that there is no isp available in my area of where the new house will be built. We are trying to contract Comcast to run main line down our road. (Nightmare). Anyways the point is what could be all the possible uses/ needs of Ethernet in the house. Questions: How many plugs in each room? Celing mounted plugs for routers? What type of cable to use? Where to buy cabling from? Best quality cable? Tips when doing this? What size switch do I need to terminate everything with? What type of switch? My dad also wants to install a surveillance system in this house. What do most cameras use for hookup? I also plan on having my computer station set up in the basement where I would hope all the cabling could terminate to. All I'm looking for is some advice from people who have done this or are planning to do this as well. Thanks, Andrew P.S House is 3 stories tall
  17. Hello community, My friend and I are at a loss. His computer despite all efforts to update drivers and unplugging graphics cards, no games can run stable, they all get the "Sorry your pc isnt working right" screen then restarts. So anyways we are trying to reset his computer to factory settings, and it says "Resetting this PC 2%" only problem is it has been at 2% for 3 hours now. We are not sure what to do. The littile animation that goes in circle is still going around, so Im assuming its not frozen. Any help?????????????
  18. I dont know if this just applies to lucky people with Comcast but Ive had them for about half a year now and I havent had a problem. THe only thing is that is bad is there customer service, which we all know is bad. I pay for 75 MPBS download speed and 10 up and I have always hit about 90 down and 13 up. No problems Maybe I am one of those lucky people?
  19. RIP to his moms wallet. I have a 500 dollar HP desktop with amd a8 5500 8GB Ram and an old dell 1280x1024 monitor. Im 16 and my parents wont buy me anything. I have to work for stuff. I plan on working this summer everyday to earn 2 grand on a computer for rest of high school and college. Its kids like this that I say, what do you do with your life. You have your graphics card as your background, there is something wrong here.
  20. try testing on closet server to you....... why would you test on server that is 700 miles away?
  21. oh I thought you were hating on Comcast, but I get it now sorry for the confusion....... Comcast's 2gbps speed cost 1000 dollar install fee and 300 a month for 2gbps down and up, wish I had that kind of money for that
  22. Why would it be painful? Just cause its comcast doesnt mean anything to me, the local reps are actually nice and we havent had any bad experiences yet.
  23. Um what do you mean, its 70 dollars USD a month for tv and internet.
