  1. You are completely right, I don't know how I didn't stop and think that the small difference in temps wasn't a big deal. Thank you.
  2. So I got a Lian Li Lancool II Mesh and I was getting around 30-35 degrees idle. I bought 2 140 fans that I put on the top as exhaust and a single 120 fan in the rear as exhaust. I have a air cooler and I am now getting around 40 degrees idle so I think what is happening is one of the 140 fans is taking the air that is being taken in from the 3 120 front fans before the air cooler's fan can send it through the heatsink, I had all my fans plugged into a fan hub so I unplugged the 140 fan closest to the front fans and moved it to a seperate fan header and using MSI's BIOS I set the fan power to 0% at all temps but It is still expelling cool air. I don't want to completely stop the fan because It will look weird with the RGB if the fans don't spin. Sorry if the question is confusing at all
  3. I just have a quick question, does anyone have some sort of an order that you follow when doing cable management? Like do you do deal with any fan cables first or do you do the front IO. I suck at cable management, but I usually end up with everything plugged in and then start to cable manage everything at once.
  4. I personally would recommend the bequiet! Silent wing 3, good airflow and almost inaudible at max speed. And if you want RGB get the light wings by bequiet!, assuming they are in stock. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/WrvZxr/be-quiet-bl066-505-cfm-120mm-fan-bl066 https://pcpartpicker.com/product/KyZ9TW/be-quiet-light-wings-pwm-high-speed-523-cfm-120-mm-fans-3-pack-bl077
  5. Hi, I have been searching online for a guide on how to set up raid 0 for my had drives, but can't find one that works. I have found one video that uses the motherboards raid but in the end it makes the 2 hard drives the boot drive. I want to just make the drives into one in windows. I am lost on what to do. I have the Ryzen 7 3700X and the MSI MPG X570 Gaming pro Carbon wifi. And this is the link to the video:
  6. Hi so I am a first time builder and have finished my build, I am looking at cablemod and really like them when I did the configuration for custom lengths I couldn't make the dual 6+2pin for my graphics card in different colors so my question is can I just use 2 8pin instead of a dual 6+2.
  7. I figured it out I saw a post on another site that said he dad this problem because his USB was corrupt so I changed it and it works like a charm
  8. I am just a idiot I didn't plug in the 8pin to the PSU that powers the motherboard
  9. So I figured it out my USB that I was trying to boot from was corrupt so I tried on a new one and it worked like a charm
  10. So I finished building my computer and I am trying to boot a USB that has the windows media creation tool but it doesn't do anything the screen just flashes and it is like nothing happened. When I try to boot with anything else I get a orange screen with white vertical lines. There is no way to boot to anything else. I have the MSI MPG X570 Gaming Pro Carbon and My CPU is the Ryzen 7 3700X.

  12. Hey so I am building my first pc and I am trying to boot my computer but when I turn it on nothing happens. All the lights turn on but nothing else on the motherboard there is 3 red lights under each is the label BOOT VGA CPU. Fans are not spinning even though they are lighting up. I am not even able to get to the bios. I don't know what is wrong I plugged everything in I needed to correctly. I have looked online and nothing helps
