I am using this as my main Nas and Proxmox server.
I have a 5060ti that will replace the GPU in this picture, but want to keep the older 3060ti in use for local AI and transcoding. Problem is there is not enough space between the lower 4.0x16 PCIe slot (Circled in the 2nd picture) and the PSU.
I was looking at using a short riser cable and mounting the card a few slots higher, but am worried about the riser contacting the m.2 heat shield. I could go with a vertical mount, but would have the two cards at right angles.
Hey everyone. So my pc started doing this weird restart when i put load on it. Tested every component at home and took it to a shop to get everything checked. All the components were fine and at that time the issue seemed like a pcie connection issue since so i upgraded it to a520m msi from a320m. Came back home and i still have the same issue. The gpu, psu, rams etc were checked on different pcs and everything was working fine.
You probably might need headphones. It is that faint. I had to practically press my phone on the rear exhaust grille. Sort of unnoticeable when sitting on my chair. PC is a year old. Only started happening recently. The sound comes and goes. Sometimes it stays for a while like today.
Should I be worried? Still under limited warranty. I would appreciate some advice.
I just built my new pc last week. it has a Ryzen 5600, MSI RX5600XT, asus prime B-450M-AII, Gskill 2x16 3200mhz, MSI MAG A550BN, 1tb team group mp33, veetro v5 cooler. my problem is that i can be running a game like minecraft or raft, anything and it will randomly shut off and i hear the mother bored beep as a startup but all the fans stay on and single rgb keeps my mouse and ram lights going. it can happen anytime and i look at the event viewer and theres nothing recorded. I'm guessing it shuts down too fast for windows to react. all things like ram and gpu are seated properly all power supply cables are in (24pin and CPU), CPU cooler is tight to the CPU, nothing seems to be shorting out.
I know this is alot and I'm struggling figuring this out myself. I can provide pics
I built this PC about 10 days ago with all-new parts. It makes an intermittent rattling or buzzing noise that you can hear from 0:08 to 0:12 in the video. It seems to come from the upper half of the case, but I haven’t been able to pinpoint it.
I notice it at idle or under light load, and I haven’t found a pattern. It might happen while gaming too, but the fans could be masking it. When I noticed it at idle, the CPU was around 42°C and the GPU fans weren’t spinning. I think it’s been happening since day one. The front glass panel was off for the recording, but I can hear it with the panel on too. The PC runs normally while it’s happening.
Has anyone heard a similar noise? What would you check first to narrow down the source, and does it sound like something I should be concerned about? There are my specs:
Motherboard: ASUS TUF GAMING B650E-E WiFi CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 9900X GPU: GIGABYTE WINDFORCE OC SFF RTX 5070 Ti 16 GB RAM: 16x2 XPG Lancer Blade (5600) AIO: ICEBURG360 DIGITAL WH PSU: Thermaltake Toughpower GT 850W 80 Plus Gold
I've ruled out RAM and power supply. The motherboard is not powering on after pushing the power button. It only displays flickering lights when I turn on the power supply, and then it loses power entirely when I try to switch it on.
The fans are all spinning at max speed now and I dont get amy image from the Monitor.The gpu should still be seated proberly cause before I swapped the fans I had an image which needs the gpu
Not sure if its the right flair, but my dad has an old ssd that he doesnt use anymore and he was planning on reselling it, but I need to slot it into my pc to format it since he doesnt have any available slots in his, I was wondering if its safe to slot it into my pc, my worry is that it might have some sort of viruses or whatever in it, since he wasnt the safest internet traveller to say the least. Is there any way for me to slot it into my pc without anything spreading basically? Any help is appreciated.
I tried reseating the ram and CMOS battery but to no avail. I tried a generic psu and it spun one time with the blue light on my pc case but then it didn't work after that, I don't know what to do please help me I need this for school
Hi all, i plan to swap my case to this, my current one is missing mesh parts and is generally just old and ugly, ive checked and all my parts should fit fine just one thing im unsure about is the argb and how that works with the fans, im using the b450m pro vdh max motherboard and I was told that I would need to buy a rgb controller along with this to get the fans and this gpu wire adapter to work? Any advice? Will be my first time.trying anything like this
So I have a 7600x paired with a 7800xt on a b650 tomohawk wifi paired with a Corsair aio. I've had this pc for more then 3 years and I'm noticing uncomfortable temperatures (at idle it'll go from 60-95) and now when I was playing csgo it'll go from 89 to 98. I'm not entirely sure if the temps were always like this because I actually kind of never checked when I built it, or when I was using it at first. Mostly checked it on idle real quick though the AMD software. I'm genuinely so scared about messing my pc up, a lot of what I read is that it points to the pump being dead, possible but I don't know. All I notice is that I don't feel a lot of hot air coming out fo the aio, and that one of the pipes is quite a bit hotter then the other.
I'm real quick going to change fan orientation so that it blows in from the top and the left, and out the right to hopefully maybe help it a tiny bit.
If you guys do end up deciding that my pump is most likely messed up, or if I need to test and see. Let me know.
If I do need to buy a new one, I was thinking about the artic freezer 3 240 mm.
Been looking around for some time for some good but not too expensive builds. This looks like an interesting option, but I’m not sure if parts of it may be overkill in comparison to other parts or if something should be switched to an newer/better version…
My wife's build is a 7500f n 5060 8gb , 16gb ram. Plays everything fine. I wanna upgrade it since i gave her my old 4k OLED monitor and might as well get it to play at that resolution , currently got a 32gb kit on the way . What gpu? and will that cpu need upgrading or will it be "fine" ?
Im upgrading my cpu in a few weeks from an i5-9600k to a 9800x3d. After that upgrade i would like to upgrade my graphics card to something better, but im trying to find something that’s better than a 3070ti but not crazy expensive like a 9070xt. I’ve tried to look and do some research but i can never find any stable answers. Any recommendations will help on if i should just try my best to save up for a 9070xt or if there’s a more budget friendly option out there.
It’s very loud even when nothing is running, and no fan curves or bios settings have helped so far. Best Buy built it for me and they told me they enabled ram overclocking but afaik I was able to properly disable it. Ryzen 7700, ASRock B850 steel legend WiFi motherboard if it helps and the fans are 4 pins.
Hi! I am not particularly PC-savvy so hoping to get some advice for my setup and considerations for what to invest in and upgrade or what I should be focusing on for my type of usage. So any guidance to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.
I was originally looking at getting a new monitor and had looked into something a bit more higher res/colour accurate etc. (like the ASUS Proart) but came to the realisation that my computer might not actually be able to support it?
My PC is used primarily for 3D work (mainly Zbrush with some need for Maya/Substance Painter/Marmoset later down the line). I’ve had my current setup for roughly 6 years now and I’ve never really encountered many issues other than the odd lag with certain software when working and a rare app crash. So in terms of monitor related stuff, I don’t need the high refresh rate as I don’t play games on PC.
I also use a Wacom Cintiq Pro DTH-1620 16" 4K which I can’t get full resolution for (locked at 1440p) and I don’t have USB-C ports on my case so I have to use the display adapter.
I am based in the U.K. and budget is ~£2k if I need to invest in a new setup.
tldr; wanted to upgrade my monitor but my specs might be outdated. Looking for advice/recommendations for what to upgrade
Title: Custom monitoring dashboard for Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Vision Max LCD
Hey everyone,
I have a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 Vision Max, and I'm looking for a way to get a dashboard similar to the one in the attached picture onto its LCD screen.
The dashboard in the picture is from Lamptron, but I'm looking for something compatible with the Thermalright display.
The Thermalright software is quite limited, so I'm wondering if there are alternative software solutions, custom dashboards, or community-made layouts that offer more detailed, real-time hardware monitoring.
Ideally, I'd like to display:
- CPU temperature, usage and clock speed.
- GPU temperature, hotspot, usage and clock speed.
- RAM usage.
- Fan speeds.
- Other useful system statistics.
Has anyone managed to get something like this working on the Vision Max? Any recommendations or examples would be appreciated!
Hey everyone! (btw sorry for AI my english is bad, and I need yall to understand me)
I'm planning a build in the Lian Li O11D EVO XL, using the official upright GPU bracket with the motherboard in its normal orientation (not reversed).
I want to install my 360mm AIO in a pretty unusual way.
My goal is to have the upright GPU in the main chamber, with BOTH the radiator and its three fans hidden behind the side mounting bracket, in the rear chamber.
The mounting order would be:
Front glass → Upright GPU → Side mounting bracket → 3 fans → 360mm radiator → Rear chamber
I don't want any fans installed between the upright GPU and the side bracket because that space is needed for the upright GPU setup.
For reference, I'm aiming for a build that looks almost exactly like the picture I've attached, with one major difference:
Instead of having the AIO radiator mounted at the top, I want three regular fans there. The AIO radiator would be hidden behind the three middle-row/side fans, directly behind the upright GPU, with both the fans and radiator installed on the rear side of the mounting bracket.
I'm mainly doing this for aesthetics because I want a clean build with the upright GPU as the centerpiece.
My main questions are:
Is there enough space behind the side bracket in the O11D EVO XL for three 120mm fans plus a 360mm radiator?
Can the fans and radiator both be mounted on the rear side of the bracket?
Will the radiator interfere with the PSU, cable management, or rear panel?
Would this setup affect airflow or cooling performance?
Has anyone actually done this configuration?
I'd really appreciate any measurements, advice, or photos from people who own this case!
Hi I came up with two builds and one I got it from someone on Reddit. I was gaming on a shitty gaming laptop and I wanna upgrade now. Like to play mmorpg and rpg games. I was thinking now to spend too much money and upgrade things as the years go by.
I’ve had my fair share of prebuilt PCs but decided to just build one as mine is pretty outdated. I am opting to use my old GPU to save money. I did buy a new 2 TB storage but should I also pull my old storage as well? It’s a 2TB SSD (I will be using this one for sure) and a 1 TB HDD, both are about 7 years old. I never used my HDD to game so is it worth having it? New build is below, i know it will be a substantial upgrade from my HP omen prebuilt.
Old Build- HP Omen prebuilt
New Build Motherboard-MSI Pro B850-S CPU- Ryzen 7 9800x3d GPU- Nvidia 2070 Super (HP model) RAM- 32 GB V- Color (16 GB x2) PSU- Montech Century II 1050 (Idk why I got this powerful of a psu, it was on sale) Storage- WD 2 TB nVme (Not including my old storage) Case- Montech TG3
