Wew what a disappointment rx480 is
>>
>>55324261
Is it though? Seems like it hit exactly where it was supposed to. Right between GTX 960 and GTX 980. It trades blows with the GTX 970 and it costs a good $80-100 less than the GTX 970 did.

I mean, it's not going to beat a GTX 1070 or anything like that, but that isn't the market it's going for, it costs $150-200 less than a GTX 1070.

Considering that cooler is like 4lbs and that board looks to be one of MSI's entry levels, it's probably really warping under that weight.

Big mega-towers like that need at least 8 layers to be supported properly.

Hey /g/, this is my first build, my GPU just got here two hours ago and I literally just put it in right before taking this picture

I have two questions, please help a noob -
Where does my case fan plug go? Is my mobo incompatible with that kind of port? Because I don't see where it would go anywhere on my mobo.

If it is incompatible, it is not bad if I just leave the side panel open to compensate for not using an exhaust fan, right?

Secondly, now that I have everything assembled, do I have to boot into the BIOS and change anything? I haven't even turned it on yet.

The PSU is on eco-mode. The PSU fan doesn't even spin until >300W drawn, or it hits 65 degrees.

Unless I play games, the PSU fan is not spinning. Pretty silent... Plus the Seasonic logo would be upside down, and the glue is really tight to flip the sticker. So I'm okay with it like this.

This will work for a quick post. This is not my main build. That one is not much to look at physically, and I'm going to do a major rebuild "soon"

But pic related is my first build, recently riced up quite a bit a la 2008 style when I first built it. Use it for emulators and stuff and a backup gaming PC. It's still relevant in a lot of situations, not entirely outdated yet.

Maybe it's retarded and ricey as fuck but I thought you guys might like something a bit different.

It's not going to be resolved until they release a card that draws proper power from PSU connectors, or they hard limit the PCIE draw which with tank the performance as it will not get enough power. Pick one because there are only two ways they can deal with it.

Remove the Molex to PWM adapter so you're left with the PWM plug (Green Arrow), you appear to have a PWM header at the side (Red Arrow), it should go in there. If that's not a PWM plug just look for a header marked "CASE_FAN [X]" with 3-4 pins If it's 4 but your fan header has 3, plug it in the first 3 pins, there should be a keying mechanism preventing you from plugging it in wrong.

>everyone seems to hate AMD

Download CPU-Z if you don't have it installed then go over to the "bench" tab and run a quick bench then compare it to the 6700k (it should provide a drop down list of reference CPUs you can compare yours to)

A 6700k gets about 2100 single core performance, remember single core performance is most important for gaming and other common tasks. Most games only really use 2-4 cores right now, a handful take advantage of 8 cores, but not many.


People don't hate AMD so much as people hate that AMD can't compete with Intel performance.
>>
>>55359933
>9590
I sure hope you have a good cooler on that thing.

Regardless, it's pretty comparable to a 2600k. So you're at least within 5 years of modern CPU performance. You should have just bought a 6600(k). AM3(+) is on the verge of defunct and you're going to be stuck upgrading a lot of shit just to get a new CPU.

That's not 150 different.

The multicore score should be similar, it's a quad core with hyperthreading vs a real 8 core.
However as we've already discussed the VAST majority of games use 2-4 cores.

Also the fact an 8 core CPU still can't beat a stock quad core 6700k in multithreaded performance is kinda sad.

For a first time it's not bad at all. That said there's still notable issues. You have cable management spots, don't neglect them. Make use of them and pull all the slack of all cables back there. It's not a heat issue, as you don't have an overclocking CPU, but a $20 CPU cooler will be quieter and do a better job. You're obviously still missing drives, but that's not so much an issue as it is just an observation. As for a new GPU - wait to see what nvidia puts out as the GTX 1060. If AMD fixes the issues with the RX 480 and the 1060 performs only marginally better and costs more then go with the 480. That's a fun case to work with, though certainly not the best you could have gotten for $50-$60. Coworker bought one for the build I set him up with. I let my "clients" choose what case they want, though I base recommend the NZXT Source 210 as its consistently $25.

Would a 3570k @ 4.2ghz really be a limiting factor in any games or apps nowadays?
>>
>>55368010
Considering a 2500k is still fully sufficient against the highest end AMD offerings, no. It will not limit you substantially enough to warrant an upgrade for everyday use and in gaming. If you're doing something that requires intensive rendering or other CPU bound tasks, then it's up to you pending how much you want to spend for better performance.

I have a 360mm in the basement as well. GPUs never go beyond 45C or so and CPU never goes past 61C that I've seen.

in that case, would you reccomend EVGA or Zotac

zotac is about 10$ cheaper, both are brand new

also, my chinkshit PSU, someone told me before that even though its advertised as 650w, because its a 30amp 12v rail, its only putting out 360w maximum

my build + a 750ti on partpicker shows 56-201w of power required, would i be ok with that tolerance of +100w?

i intend to replace the PSU in the future, but im not going particularly hard on the build as is, and everything is unplugged when im not using it
