My new rig Questions

[Lucky Me]

Thx Lee.

 

I think the Corsair LPX memory will do the trick for me. I don't see any difference between the 2 memories other than the RGB and it saves €30. The case I still don't know and I keep searching for the one I want. I looked at the Fractal and the Phanteks cases reviews and I'm not a real fan, so far......

 

The search continues......

 

Another question comes up... DVD or not? Also, I am a photographer and need a card reader... Would you guys make them internal or external?

A case is personal preference so obviously everyone has different tastes on that.

 

If you need a dvd writer and card reader and use them frequently then you might as well go with internal options.

Fractal Design Define R6 (I own the R4 and love it) is going to be my case.

 

In this case, I can easily hide the DVD burner and the card reader.....

Could be, but I just want intel... Don't know why but I just want to. Why change a winning team, if it ain't broken......

That would be Ryzen as of right now.

The Fractal R6 only has a single 5.25 bay. The R5 has 2 x 5.25 bays so that would be the better option if you wanted both the DVD and card reader inside the case. Other option would be to go with an external dvd writer and stick the card reader in the 5.25 bay in the R6.

 

You can buy 5.25 card readers from the likes of Akasa. The majority are 3.5" though so they would need a 3.5 to 5.25 adaptor bracket to fit in a 5.25 bay.

 

This one for example is 5.25 - http://www.akasa.co.uk/update.php?tpl=product/product.detail.tpl&no=181&type=Card Reader/Hub&type_sub=Card Reader&model=AK-HC-05U3BK

That's good to know... about the only 1 slot.

This would be the best solution I guess...

I didn't know they made dvd writers with built in card readers  So yeah that is a good option if you are wanting the R6 case.

All I have to find out where to buy this...

Does anyone have an idea?

 

OMG... never mind. I can buy the Chenbro version on Amazon (I had a message saying it can't deliver the card reader......). Then I buy the bracket only, lol

[Lucky Me]

Just bought me a Chenbro 41202 for €20 (incl. packaging)... So problem solved

 

I updated the list on the first post....

I was thinking about my rig. I wanted an RTX 2080Ti graphics card, but I was thinking about if I really needed it. I came up with another solution, also money wish:

 

Gigabyte Aorus Geforce RTX 2080 Extreme 8Gb and this way I can save €500! Easy money and in the pocket.
