>>53846824
what UMPC?
>>53847308
if you're trying to build a dead silent, 100% passive, no-moving parts machine, then yes
else no
>>53847341
I'm building an always on shitposting machine with a passive heatsink, an SSD, and zero fans.
They just happened to turn out that way.
>>53847341
What are the downsides, other than higher heat?
Added my afterburner profile
>>53847422
Fanless PSUs don't come in ratings much higher than 550 watts, and they're expensive (~$200 for some of them). It is because of those heat reasons. Both all the extra heatsinking, and because it needs higher-rated components (normal electronics are only rated to 85C)
You also need big heavy heatsinks on the CPU and (if present) GPU that are specially designed for no-fans work. Plenty of "passive" sinks don't have a fan on them themselves but implicitly assume that there is one in the case somewhere. You also need to think about putting some beefed-up chipset/mosfet cooling on the motherboard, since it assumes it'll have airflow.
The case has to work with you on all this and provide for it. It's easier now that top and bottom vents are common though, since your airflow is gonna be all convection, which is a bottom-to-top pattern.
oh yeah and if the point of all this is absolute silence you have to make sure you don't manage to put something with coil whine in it.
Overall it's a expensive, a lot of work and the poor ability of convection alone to dump heat sharply limits how powerful the machine can be. but if you want 100% suitable-for-a-studio dead fucking silent, it's what you gotta do.
Heres my guts
>>53847556
It's a Pentium N3700 ITX build for earth-friendly 24/7/365 shitposting. It's TDP is 6W and the thing only draw like 50W from the socket with 100% CPU load.

>Seed of Cucky
Oh shit lmao
should i return my SSF case so that i can go mATX/ATX and grab a x99 motherboard?
was really hoping to stick to the SSF but i don't think i can adequately cool a 5820k in the case since it won't fit a radiator and the cooler height restriction is pretty bad.
I was having an issue where my two 1tb mechanical drives kept disappearing from both windows and Linux. Was driving me insane! Finally figured it out. The molex to dual sata power adapter was shit and was dying. It would work intermittently. Nothing is more infuriating than being unable to replicate a problem to troubleshoot.
My 1tb drives are now humming along happily in a striped array and giving sustained 430MB/s write speeds for work space.
>>53847707
you aren't living in a capsule hotel in Tokyo, anon. An ATX midtower will make your life a lot easier with that CPU
>>53847707
Depends on your use case. Do you actually need the 12 threads of a 5820k and quad channel memory that x99 would provide?
I'm not shilling for skylake, but if you're just gaming with occasional VM or encoding usage, just get the 6700k. Less thread sure, but runs cooler than the 5820k allowing for lower and smaller coolers which would fit in your case.
>>53847760
I was about to yell at you for being wrong but then I looked it up and apparently they put vt-x in K chips now. huh.
>>53847760
that's the thing though, i can go either 5820k or 6700k for roughly the same price, and i don't see any real edge that the 6700k has over 5820k other than allowing me to stick with SSF.
>>53848207
Are you playing gaymes or what? The 6700k kicks the 5820k with gaymes
>>53848207
Yea but it also comes down to overall price to performance. A z170 motherboard is usually cheaper than even the bargain bin x99 stuff. And a 6700k overclocked to say 4.5ghz will run a helluva lot cooler than a 5820k at the same speed because keep in mind the 5820k comes out of the box at 3.2ghz I think compared to the 4.0+GHz stock of the 6700k. Plus their memory controllers are different. I've seen 5820k chips that were unable to handle ddr4 over 2400mhz if you're looking to overclock the chip. Meanwhile most 6700ks I've seen will handle ddr4 at 3200mhz and then some while also clocking the chip too.
If you truly need the threads of the 5820k, go for it. If not the 6700k is the better option.

Legitimate question- Why get the classy when it clashes with you build instead of getting a FTW and easily overlocking it even higher than the classy with no issues? It matches your build better and even has the nice blue FTW logo. Was the GPU an afterthought or the build color

because i planned on getting a vinyl sticker for the red including the CLASSIFIED on the top, for now it's not that big of a deal.
i want to swap out of this god awful case and upgrade to skylake but don't want to dump another 500$ in cpu/mobo and another 50 in ram.
i planned on overclocking the crap out of my classy but it's a crappy binned card as far as i can tell, capping at 1430mhz core with no voltage bump but +15% power limit.
maybe i need a custom bios but idk. i haven't had nvidio before. gpu color was an afterthought but it doesn't bug me too much

Really you only got 1430mhz on your classy? I was getting that at stock boost speeds. Extra 50mv and Max power target got me up and over the 1500mhz hump. I occasionally see 1502mhz when boosting.
Just FYI, Maxwell doesn't take heat great. As soon as the card hits 70C, it will dial back it's boost.

Do you guys with PVC figures in cases actually keep them in, or do you just pose them there for the picture?
This is mine. Before anyone comments on the 980ti and 1080p, latest games at 1080p with settings maxed out (minus AA) do drop below 60 fps quite often. 980ti is definitely not an overkill for this resolution.
>>53858962
Tell me you're at least utilizing that hardware for something beyond 1080p gaming that can't even hit 60fps.
My GPU died last night. I had a Gigabyte GTX 970.
Today I have the choice of buying a MSI GTX 970 or a MSI R9 390 (they're both on sale and they're both the same price).
It seems that the R9 is superior in every way, should I switch?
Has anyone tried cable tying a 140mm case fan to replace the fan on a hyper 212 evo?
Post images
>>53858962
Yes it is, it's pretty obvious a 980ti is overkill for 1080p. It doesn't matter what you say, it doesn't make it not true.
>>53858962
>latest games at 1080p drop below 60 quite often
Then you clearly fucked something up
>>53858962
sees like what happened here is someone took a long time to save up all their lemonade stand bucks to buy a neato flagship graphics card and then had no more money to buy a better monitor so now you just go around making up obvious bullshit to justify it.
>>53858962
the 980 is slightly overkill for 1080p. the 980ti is ridiculous.

or he is using 4k textures and downsampling like a retard and still claiming "it's just 1080p guis"
>>53861397
Never understood why people do that
DSR: All the resource intensity of 4k without any of the added clarity, doesn't perform as well as MSAA. All for the low low price of all of your VRAM
>>53861462
there's a placebo effect that it looks better
>>53861462
>>53861671
I thought it was the best AA you could get. At insane performance costs of course, but you already have a stupid card might as well use it.
>>53861689
yeah, that too. Not worth it really as 16x AA still looks very good

I'm stuck in 2008
Put in some new corsair fans. I guess they look cool, but now it sounds like a damn vacuum cleaner and it didn't really help the temps at all.
>>53861689
No MSAA is less stress on the card than 4k and has better Anti aliasing performance. 16x anisotropic filtering has nothing to do with AA.
>>53862208
Who mentioned anisotropic filtering?

>>53862479
I'm not even sure what they're arguing over.
>>53862514
the guy with the rig has the top rad pushing air into the case to be immediately exhausted. according to anon, this means his GPU is having hot air pushed onto it
>>53862479
Great argument
That is how air pressure works, if the exhaust (140) fan is spinning faster than rad fans (120) then then air will be sucked out before touching the GPU backplate.
>>53862566
Wouldn't it need to spin faster than the rad fans, and the intake fans in the front?
>>53862542
I think the 14 year old got jealous of the 16 year old's water cooling system so he/she lashed out...which prompted the "muh physics" name drop
Entertaining none the less
>>53862629
my bad, meant for
>>53862514
>>53862580
Yes it is spinning faster than the rad fans, intake fans do not matter as they are much further away and have object in their way.
>>53862629
yeah. It happens once a thread. Normally its over an IDE cable,a fury x or an MSI motherboard
>>53862655
>Yes ... intake fans do not matter as they are much further away and have object in their way.
How is that "Yes"? That would be "No, it doesn't need to spin faster than the rad fans, and the intake fans in the front".
Also, doesn't pressure increase because of those fans anyway, even if they're slightly further away and have a GPU slightly in front of it? It's a closed system mostly.
>>53862661
Except this isn't about heat transfer or convection. It's about air pressure, something you can literally not argue about. After playing just cause 3 for an hour or so, even with my overclock that max temp is 64C.
>>53862699
No there three hard drives in the way. That front area is where all the drives go. They actually obstruct the airflow a lot and I need to jerry rig a better solution. I mean "Yes" as in the exhaust matters, I should've worded it better.

>>53862699
>>53862655
>>53862580
>>53862566
OK, I'm pretty sure someone here is trolling, but just to be clear:
if those >>53854925 radiator fans aren't exhaust fans, it's full fucking retard. I'm pretty sure the diagram indicates that the air is flowing IN the front of the case and OUT the back and top, but who knows.
pls stop retarded argument
>>53862846
>bu..bu..but what about my MS paint diagrams?? Physics??
I agree with you anon, some of that has to be bait
>>53862880
Shit finally someone gets it
I thought he would realize I was fucking around at the ms paint diagram but I guess not. The reason why the fans are intake is because I do more CPU work than GPU so those temps are prioritized. Surprisingly though my GPU temps are low, fuck if I know why.
>>53863007
If that's true, why wouldn't you mount the radiator in the front of the case to optimize air flow?
>>53863035
I could not get the tubes through the hard drive bays.
>>53863052
#fuckdrivebays, amirite anon?
>>53863068
The genuinely do suck. I wish I could just use SSDs. Once I get the water cooling loop started though I'm going to try to alleviate my air flow autism. The temps aren't bad at all but I know I can make them much better.
>>53862759
>No there three hard drives in the way. That front area is where all the drives go.
Didn't realize there were actually drives there.
I'd still think pressure doesn't work that way, but I'm definitely not going to say I understand pressure well enough to actually say that.
>>53863140
I'm not actually sure, it might. But as I said above I was just fucking around. What I said might actually be somewhat true though. But the hard drive bays have really bottlenecked what I can do with the build.
Got a new modular supply and a couple new intake fans, build is finally done. Feels good man, now I gotta start working on overclocking.
>>53863242

It really has a lot to do with your standards. For me overkill means that I can easily turn the settings to max (minus performance eating ones like high levels of AA or DSR) and still have the card be constantly above 60 fps.
Let's see now. Rise of the tomb raider: with maxed out settings (aa is off) the game drops quite often below 60 fps in late soviet installation and in geothermal valley.
The Division: With almost every setting maxed out (minus the shadow that are not the nvidia exclusive ones) the game drops in the low 50s high 40s.
Assassin's creed: drops below 60 a lot whenever he pleases apparently
Witcher 3: drops to the low 50s in dense forests, like the one in white orchard.
GTA 5: drops below 60 fps too
The card has no trouble in granting an average of over 60 fps however, the card can't keep CONSTANT 60 fps in the latest games with settings maxed out (again, with no AA)
I didn't fuck anything up, that was my first thought as well and my results in firestrike, valley and heaven are perfectly in line with how my system should perform when confronted with other online results.
This whole overkill for 1080p buzzword has been thrown around ever since the release of the radeon HD5xxx series and fermi but that's not the case.
Numbers are indisputable and so far even on an oc (5820k is @ 4ghz and the 980ti is @ 1350) games at 1080p maxed out (again things like AA are off) isn't enough to keep >60 fps at all times.
Perhaps it's because games aren't optimized as they should be, perhaps is something else but, as thing stands a 980ti is definitely not an overkill for 1080p.
If games drop below 60 at 1080, 1440 would only exacerbate such a phenomenon.
>>53863292
Seriously, that shit is annoying and just gets in the way. Any decent case should have mounts on the backside for SSDs and HDDs.
>>53863485
Rise of the tomb raider- Never go below 60 at 1080p
The division-Never go below 50 at 1440p, I think you might have supersampling on
Assassins creed-Bad port, simple as that
Witcher 3-Never go below 60 at 1440p, turn off goyworks
GTA 5-No, even 1080p 8x msaa never drop below 60
I think you've fucked something up

DVDRW: old DVDRW MultiWriter i had laying around from the eMachine.
PSU: Kenntech 680W i had in an old Dell.
Case: Compaq Presario 6000 series ATX case.
Additional stuff: Mobo doesn't have a connector for the case fan (came from a miniTower) so i had to use a direct connection with a Molex plug i had laying around, and due to running hot from overclocking, i added two more fans as well to give additional cooling. Shit works - GPU is running about 20-30 degrees cooler, depending on what is running, never going above 60C (ran hottest around 85C), and the CPU is running around 50C with the overclock.

Are you a spacemang?
:(
>>53848412
I really dig how this one looks. Only thing I would add is some cable combs to complete how clean everything looks
>>53852323
Which Dell model is this?
>>53863485
I think the other anon is right in that something is wrong
My fire strike ultra is 4950 and my valley is 4470
>>53864048
*4850
>>53863441
i'll just be doing 1080p 60hz gaming so it'll probably be overkill for me
SLI with another 780 or 2x 980ti
i don't like any of the meme cases these days. it's bugging the fuck out of me. absolutely not a fan of any of the popular ones
>>53862309
They just ran out of the MSI R9. Now my only option would be the Powercolor R9. What do? Never heard of powercolor.
>>53864359
Powercolor makes good r9's as long as its the PCS+ one.
>>53851457
how dusty is this ?
>>53851166

>>53851457
I want one of these with a small built in air compressor to make cleaning the dust a non-issue.
>>53864442
It is.
>>53864301
2x 780 would be one 980Ti
You only Ti SLI if you 4K and you won't be satisfied
Should I SLI two 950s to compare them to a 970 and 780 Ti? I don't think I've seen a video on Youtube about that.
How about 2 370 Crossfire vs a 390 and 290X?
>>53864756
You lazy fuck, this was like the third result on Google for "SLI 950".

My guts are fresh.
>>53844524
holy shit, i'm about to build a very similar machine.
How's it working for you? is 8GB RAM enough for you? maybe i could save some money
>>53865314

>>53865335
why would you build a haswell in the current year? the 1150 is a dead socket
>>53865278
post specs t. >>53853850
>>53864978
>and 780 Ti
He only does a 970. Hell, I think I should compare all $300 solutions (2x 950, 2x R9 270, 2x R7 370, 390, 970, 780 Ti), since no one seems to be doing that.
>>53865364
>>53853850 isn't me.
Here they are for >>53865278
>Pentium 4 2.8GHz
>ASUS P4P800-E
>1GB RAM
>20GB HDD
>Radeon 9600 256MB
>Winfast TV2000 XP
>C-Media 8738 PCI Soundcard
>Pioneer DVD-ROM drive
>Delux ATX-450W PSU (which is actually a Deer DR-B450E in disguise,the original Kissquiet KC-420 that was in there died)
>>53865399
It shows how it compares to a 970, I'm sure it's quite easy to find plenty of 970 vs 780ti benchmarks. You can't expect to find every single option compared in one place.
>>53865429
I think it'll be fun to do a mass price segment comparison to see how SLI/Crossfire and GTX/Radeon cards compare in general.
>>53865351
I don't want to use w10 yet
>>53865457
me neither. do skylakes not work with win7?
>>53865457
>>53865351
skylake being the alternative of course
>>53864675
Then yeah you could go with that it its a good cooler.
>>53865465
not after July 2017
>>53865455
There are just two many options to make it worth while, certain reviewers pick and choose their comparisons and then it's up to the buyer to compare multiple reviews.
The reason that video didn't compare the 950s to a 780ti is because there's such a large age difference, not so much betwen the 970 and 780ti, and because you can interpolate the relative performance from the 970 comparison. Also the 780ti isn't available new any more and when that happens that particular card is no longer included in most reviews because the availability and price can vary a lot.
>>53865424
I know >>53853850 isn't you, it is my post.
Looks like you have a higher-end rig from the same era as my entry level setup. Only thing I have better is the HDD. (160gb)
>>53865581
I paid 250 for my Gigabyte OC Ti, pretty good card. Bought it to survive on 4K until Pascal.
>>53852441
looking forward to it mate. What colour tubing you gone for, I saw the neon green coolant

>>53865457
I'm having the same issue, i'm about to build a new rig, however i don't want to use w10, so i can't do skylake. The quistion is: how long will Haswell / Haswell-E stay usable?
>>53866002
Look at sandy bridge, it should last as long as that, unless Zen is good then Intel will actually put effort into making new chips
>>53865766
Yes, I know...
