Shit planning Edition
Can we get some new people this thread?
There you go
>>53560217
How do you like the H100i?
Shit planning edition? I'm right at home.
>just moved up from ITX, GFX is already sold, will upgrade mobo + cooler and double the ram to 16GB soon.
>>53560452
Out of curiosity, is there a particular reason you changed to mATX?
>>53560407
>>53560469
I got bored of my small, loud and hot PC and after breaking up in the summer I had money to spend on my PC again, and all the room in the world.
The case has nicer air flow and room for SLI/CF again should I decide to go bonkers.
I had a full tower with two 23cm fans before going ITX, pic related is my old ITX build.
>>53560217
I didn't know that MSI made a Z97 mobo with an mSATA port
>>53560567
That ITX build looked really nice. I currently have a regular ATX setup, but almost definitely will not be sticking with it for my next build.
I recently assembled an ITX box for my family, and the small footprint is fantastic. I think I may go with that in the future.
>>53560621
Sure, looks nice and the footprint has advantages. Still you have to realize what you're getting in to: performance equals loudness.
Seems like mATX is the right choice for me at the moment.
>>53560656
See I don't have a volume noise issue with my NCase. Despite it does get a little warm. I will be doing a custom loop soon, though.

>>53560616
It's an older board
guys in think my mobo is dieing 2 of the sata ports died last night the ones plugged in.
my 2.5 year old mobo also lost sound
now what do, will it fail before launch date?
>>53560929
Better sell your soul and hope it stay alive.
>>53560452
Cute shit.
Blatant zip tie edition
Still have to take a new picture.
>>53560929
Ebay brah
>>53560452
Do not but 16bg of ram. It's just wasteful, unless you are leveraging it with like content creations or VM's
Cpu is 4.8ghz at 1.35v if anyone wants to know.

Planning on getting sleeved cables, but having a hard time deciding on the colors / arrangement. Was gonna do something like the pic, but I want to use patterned cable along with solid colors. Not too sure how it'd look.
>>53561865
I might get these soon
>>53561865
Do your own sleeved cables.
Seriously
It's one of those things that really does reward patience and hard work by the time you're finished with the project.
Just don't do what I did and not buy a pack-up set of 24-pin and CPU cables just in case you fudge up.
>>53560217
>Shit planning Edition
This is my old configuration, I deeply regret buying this case.
New setup features a Fractal Define R5. Incoming...
>>53561187
Velcro is much leaner, friend.
>>53562191
How the fuck did I manage to fuck that up
>>53562247
and new build. Much happier with this case.
Where do I find Cable Combs that arent expensive as shit?
It's just ABS plastic man...
r8 my spaghetti
>>53562247
Thats one long fucking case
>>53561944
I was considering doing my own sleeving, mainly beacuse it was really hard finding a site that does sleeving for my specific power supply. It'd be my first time sleeving, so I'm kinda worried about messing up. Extensions don't seem too hard, but I feel like there's a bit more to working with the actual cables. Looking up pinouts, then actually getting the tools and the sleeving, dunno if I can be bothered with it, messing up my PSU would suck. Does sound kinda fun though, so I'm still thinking about it.
>>53562268
Not bad. R5 is a great case to work in.
>>53562337
Is that actual stone? If so, that's pretty dope.
>>53562589
Meant to reply to >>53562133
>>53562247
I know velcro is better, I could even just get a longer or second cable and put it in the drive bay... I just... haven't...
>>53562638
Well get thee self to a fucking office store or something, shit.
>>53562298
jesus that's a lot of drives
>military class
how's fighting terrorism anon?
Last time I post in one of these until I actually change something
Otherwise I'm just posting the same shit constantly

I made a thread about this a few days ago, but I think it's worth bringing up again. Corsiar water coolers suck ass. I had my h80 for almost 2 years when it busted and literally started spewing water directly onto my CPU. There was a mess of wet thermal paste all over my ram and motherboard, leaving both beyond repair. The leak sprung right where the copper piece of the water block meets the plastic, and ruined over $250 in parts. I can't get a response from corsair's support, and I have no money to buy a new PC. I've noticed a lot of you memes like to use them, and I just throught I'd share
>>53564636
I have a very very old asetek 240mm AIO from way back when, thing is well over its 50k manufacturer suggested usage,
I am so afraid of upgrading/changing it out for one of these cheap ass modern AIOs.
Tax money coming, I may need to buy a custom loop to avoid the stress of trusting it.
updated since last thread
>>53564866
Is that a micro atx mobo in an ATX case? Why??? Also, if you can afford a new MSI videocard, why not spend $30 on a CPU cooler?
>>53560217
>new people
>guts
m8 what are you trying to imbly?
>>53564966
i reused the motherboard from a prebuilt pc to save money
and the cpu is a non-K so it doesn't need more than stock cooler
>>53564966
>>53564995
fuck it, since everyone memes me for the stock cooler and mATX motherboard i will fix it
first step acomplished
I need a new CPU cooler, thinking I'll get aio but not sure which one would look best with my build
r8?
>>53561469
Ram is cheap and I'm running out when playing intensive games like Watchdoges and GTA:V because of all the other stuff I do.
