Would you ever consider buying a PC like this?
they're selling this in japan

If I can custom build it myself and the monitor is a case...
Fucking no because the cooling will be shit and limit my overclocking. You can overclock 1 teraflop+ on most cards just with decent cooling alone
Fuck no. That's just asking for trouble.
Didn't they make a bunch of Macs like that and they had overheating problems?
why the fuck would I want a stock intel cooler in something with shit-tier airflow
>2000 fucking dollars
jesus fucking christ no the cons outweigh the pros by a mile
>>339578996
Yes and yes. Anyone who buys this is asking for trouble.
>>339578830
Cooling nightmare
>>339578996
iMacs with this design cool fine, not as well as a larger case with proper airflow, but fine. For anything but gaming, they're silent, which can't be said for many tower computers
>>339579110
Is there even a pro at all besides saving space on a rig?
I know shit all about building PCs and just general tech related to PCs, but this is just asking for shit to happen and explode in your face one day or just plain melt.
Absolutely not. What happens if the screen cracks or gets damaged? No way in hell I'm putting all my eggs in one basket like that. One of the benefits of having a PC is that if one part goes bad you're not completely fucked.
>>339578996
Yes but the guts were in the base of the monitor and covered.
This design could work very well.
>>339579087
Because unless you OC, the stock intel shit is more than enough.
Unless you're in Africa.
>>339578830
If it was 16:10 I'd consider it but not with a new card and not without some sort of water cooling.
I still don't overclock because 15 extra fps isn't worth a reduced lifespan.
>>339579196
This is stupid, All-In-One PCs have been a thing for decades, this is just using higher quality parts
>>339579191
the screen has some pretty alright specs
i'll be honest thats it i didn't think that one through its just shit all around
It appears we think by saving space, we're innovating technology.
Fitting a bunch of lightbulbs in one fixture isn't as efficient as placing a bunch of lightbulbs around an area if the goal is to light a room.
>>339579295
If it's possible to have a decent gaming experience without some LED-ridden plastic turd from the future sitting next to your monitor, why not?
>>339578830
Honestly no. Its the same problem with laptops. To much in one area. I have a huge spacious tower so everything has its own easily reachable spot and repairs/maintenance is easy to do. Look how crowded that thing is.
It also looks top heavy as fuck. My monitor gets bumped around a lot. Imagine that tipping over. You are risking EVERYTHING if it falls. What happens when the power supply goes bad? The more shit right there on it the more likely it will get friend with the power supply.
Just no. I wouldn't. Its a nice design and it looks cool. But I wouldn't touch it.
I was in China at an Alienware shop and played Dora 2 on one, the screen was far too big to keep on eye on everything happening. Would be great for non competitive "cinematic expire nice" gamers though.
is 16:10 the rnost retarded meme to ever exist in PC gaming?
>>339579369
>My monitor gets bumped around a lot
What the fuck are you doing on your desk that your monitor 'gets bumped around a lot'?
>>339579191
>Because unless you OC, the stock intel shit is more than enough.
you don't actually believe this, do you?
Intel has the worst stock coolers in the business. The last one I received idled my CPU at fucking 70C
>>339579405
>the screen was far too big to keep on eye on everything happening
What the fuck? I have a 34" ultrawide and everything is perfectly within my vision. Did you put your nose against the monitor?
>>339579421
I dont have a desk. I'm a poor college student that moves around a lot to the cheapest place I can find. I moved 5 times in the last year. This leads to my monitor being right on the coffee table a lot. My computer is really the only thing adding to my net worth.
>>339579184
>For anything but gaming, they're silent
Absolutely not. Once you're running demanding software like After Effects or Cinema 4D for a while it will blow louder than any tower PC simply because the airflow is shit.
>>339579369
>You are risking EVERYTHING if it falls
They're all standard parts, you're risking absolutely nothing. Stop fearmongering.
>>339579230
New iMacs are LITERALLY this design anon, when the fuck they had "bases" last?
And yeah they suck ass
>>339579363
I was going to explain all the possible drawbacks in a design with literally no conceivable advantages but I've decided you're probably just mentally retarded and instead I'm gonna go jerk off
>>339579363
>simple steel boxes don't exist
>>339578830
no. That's just plain stupid. it limits what kind of parts or how many parts you can have. it's only convenient. That's it.
>>339579548
When ever a PS goes I fear the worst. Even with proper management and safety nets. Its always a relief when you swap to a new PS and it boots up fine.
>>339579363
Yeah, look at my LED-ridden plastic turd, oh so problematic.
>>339579184
>macs are silent
yeah, when you're only looking at the internet. The mac fans are fucking loud and said fans have the highest failure rate next to the HDDs. iMacs are shit for video editing, they heat up too easily.
>>339579687
My PSU of the last 8 years actually died on me last month. It was super fucking worrying but as soon as I plugged in the new one I felt 100x better.
That 45 bucks went a long way.
Wouldn't this work with oled?
I heard oled screens got rid of the lamp so heat shouldn't be that much of an issue
>>339578830
Looks more like a Laptop solution with a desktop GPU.
So no thanks.
>>339579720
>mfw old training school sets up an "iMac studio" while they have CRT screens in some other rooms
>3 months in and 3 of 20 had to be taken to warranty for fan issues
>they had to boot windows on them anyway
>>339579416
yes
>>339579690
By industrial design standards, most PC cases look like absolute ass, including that one
>>339578830
Where the fuck is the PSU ?
>>339579870
You'll say anything to justify your shitty imac purchase for yourself, right?
>consider buying a PC
never
>>339579923
>JUST TICK A BOX
>>339579923
>>
Fuck off.
>>339579913
I don't even own one, I figure if a hardware manufacturer is trying to improve the state of PC hardware aesthetics and trying to challenge the traditional idea of box + monitor, everyone responding with hate and bile and "oh it could never work" without even knowing anything about it is kind of ridiculous
>>339579968
Most people hate it because of the cooling. Everyone loves overclocking.
>>339579831
I come from a mac family and am the sole windows user, granted only my dad gives a shit about OS stuff. He prefers mac and is kind of stubborn, but he's got cash so whatever.
My sister's Macbook had both the GPU fan and CD drive fail on her before 2 years. My roommate had an iMac that the fan failed on and the HDD slowed way the fuck down. The CPU also started overheating and underclocked itself to make the whole comp run like shit.
The only part that's failed on me on my desktop is my PSU after 8 years. The CD drive, all my GPUs and CPUs, and RAM worked perfectly.
how the fuck is that screen supposed to not melt?
>>339578830
>all those buttons on the mouse
I feel like I would just constantly hit them accidentally.
And even if you did keymap the whole thing, how would you feel the difference between them in the heat of the moment?
>>339580016
Or doing any sort of heavylifting with the computer
>>339580037
>I come from a mac family and am the sole windows user
Man that must be weird
>get a dead pixel
>>339579821
OLED is insanely expensive to manufacture at more than cell-phone size and on-top of that only a couple manufacturers actually make them. Samsung has a semi-monopoly on theme at the moment and LG is making some OLED stuff.
>>339579968
>without even knowing anything about it is kind of ridiculous
1. its a design done before
2. it works fine for low power pcs
3. it does not for high power gaming desktop hardware
That simple.
Keep hating valid logic.
>>339579968
I'm against it and its not because "It could never work" Its because I dont feel safe with it. I dont like how compact and close together the parts are. I also dont like it because it takes a lot of control away from me. Now I have to follow their design and placement if I want to do anything with it.
Its a fine product for what it is but I have no interest in it at all.
>>339580102
But it barely produces heat right? Wouldn't this work if oled was cheaper?
>>339580121
>it does not for high power gaming desktop hardware
I'm sure you know better than the designers of this hardware
>>339580080
Same way people knew how to pocket-text back in the days of keypads on cellphones
>>339579870
Leave and never return applecuck
>>339580093
It's really not that weird. My dad is a bit of an apple fanboy, but not to the point where he won't use a windows PC. My mom and sister know nothing of technology so the simplicity of apple appeals to them.
I got into gaming which means windows or bust.
>>339580080
>how would you feel the difference between them in the heat of the moment?
Practice nigga, do you want to be a fighter jet pilot or not?
>>339580181
Is your sister cute?
>>339580160
I don't need to - IT HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE.
Anon just shut up if you can't say anything worth a shit.
>>339580095
Most of my devices have dead pixels on them. As long as it stays just one pixel I can handle it. Good fucking luck it a row or column goes though.
>>339580143
LED also barely produced heat. Where have you been?
>>339580095
I got a dead pixel on my 80€ monitor :(
>>339578830
Why do this, if you get a problem with the monitor, dead pixel for example you are fucked.
>>339578830
My current PC runs at below 23dB, It's so quiet I keep mistaking it for being off when the monitor goes into idle. The only thing audible is the sound of air gently blowing out and I wouldn't trade that for anything.
>>339579557
I was talking about some old 90's/00's macs, back when they were still power PC.
>>339580225
My friends think she's hot but she's annoying as fuck sometimes. Still love her but I've never had an incestuous thought about her since I know her and I can't be together for more than a few hours at a time. We get on eachothers nerves.
>>339580326
Which is what I didn't understand why you'd do when their new ones are actually relevant.
>>339580080
Never learned to touch type huh?
>>339580303
>tfw I just rebuilt my PC in a sound-dampening case
I can barely hear it at all with headphones on, it's amazing.
>>339580303
What case do you have Garrett?
>>339580095
I have never gotten a dead pixel on any of my laptops/monitors/TV and I've changed them quite a few times since I switched to LCD 15 years ago.
>>339580361
I didn't even know there's new ones out, I don't care about macs other than laughing at the idiots who buy them.
>>339580484
You didn't know there were new Macs made in the last 20 years?
>>339578830
>fan noise and vibration right in front of me
that would drive me nuts
>>339580331
That's called tension. She's uncomfortable with her feelings and pushes you away without noticing. Get in there.
>Break Screen
>No computer
>>339580547
>That's called tension.
It's definitely not. It's called "holy fuck my sister is so fucking annoying just make up your goddamn mind" and "jesus christ you are so hypocritical will you just not fucking shit on me when I'm trying to do something to make me happy"
Yeah, that's going to look great in 1 year after the heat from the GTX 1080 fucks up the surrounding pixels.
God damn, Japanese people are clueless about PCs. And Far Cry Primal? Nice job using a shitty game for your promo shots, assholes.
>>339580729
I know those feels, also have a "hot" sister,
Shit just doesn't work..
>>339578830
all in one desktops aren't that uncommon but I imagine a gaymer one like that is gonna be both really expensive and heat up really bad
>>339580805
Don't get me wrong, I love her in a family sense, but I have no fucking clue how she has a boyfriend. She's irritating and fickle as fuck.
She's also highly hypocritical and really kind of pathetic.
>a civil engineer
>Lives on her own with plenty of money (something like 75k a year)
>can afford to pay her own bills and even afford her medicine for epilepsy she was diagnosed with
>says I'm lucky to be working minimum wage at 15 hours a week in LA because that's where jobs are
>criticises me for wanting to go back home and start a LP/video game channel because that's what I love and where my friends are
I could never hate her, but just. fucking. ugh.
>>339580982
I understand anon, my sister is uptight snob fuck who had it easy all her life
>>339578830
what if you got a dead pixel ?
>>339580420
H440 Silent Special Black
It's a decent mid range case, there are better options available, but I didn't feel like buying a brand new case so I made some custom adjustments to it, swapped all the original fans to custom rubber 140mm PWM fans and some extra foaming here and there and put more isolation on all vibration sources.
>>339580421
Fuck you anime trump.
Lucky bastard.
>>339581119
H440 Ultra Silent black*
"Special" is apparently the ugly razer design.
>>339579638
Looks like its all standard parts with a mini ITX motherboard, smooshed out horizontally instead of stacked like in a typical mini ITX case. It even has space for a long card, which my mini ITX case barely does. I don't see how its putting any limitations on your part selection
>>339581215
>ugly
It's not particularly eye-catching but I wouldn't call it ugly
Here is my case.
Its fucking perfect, sans the plastic clear side.
Solid steel, everything thought out on the inside, god tier cable management, can fit a gorllian fans, and i personally think it looks fucking awesome, even the flip up cover black and yellow reset switch.
This is the case to rule them all, the Corsair Vengence.
>>339581824
Better pic.
I cant talk it up enough. Its just a good, solid, case.
>>339579184
Current iMac use mobile CPU and GPUs hence the low heat and power usage. they don't have any unique special airflow design.
>>339581824
>>339581880
good taste, i've had my eyes on this case for a while now. will probably spring for it sooner rather than later.
>>339581889
They actually do, there's a gigantic heatsink performing passive cooling that absorbs heat to prevent the fans from having to spin up at all. The CPU is also a desktop model, only the GPU is mobile.
>>339581626
The special edition has the razer symbol on the front of it, so that's a big no-no for me. I want to keep it minimalistic to match the rest of my interior.
>>339578830
looks kind of neet but i bet the fan would be loud as fuck
>>339581995
That makes sense
>>339581880
I like the idea more than the implementation. It's ugly as sin itself.
In terms of practicality it looks great though.
>>339580171
everyone knew how to do that, basic skill
>all-in-one PC's
also
>buying a pre-built
Looks like the specs are good, but the cooling must be a nightmare
What's that BitFenix case that looks like Isaac Clarkes face? I always wanted that one.
>>339581824
>>339581880
what even makes a case good? This is my case and I got it since it seemed decent and was cheap
>>339581931
My last two best PC purchases was that case, and an SSD.
When transfering guts, you just keep telling yourself "god damn, this makes ALOT of sense" over and over again. Cable holes in all the right places to the false backing. COMPLETELY tooless breakdown. Half of the front HDD bays can be taken out for maor fans. Fans on the bottom, the top, the front, the back, on the god damn window.
>>339582227
See
>>339582237
The internal layout, the rubberized HDD quick remove trays, i mean fuck i can go on and on.
>>339582135
>It's ugly as sin itself.
REEEEE
>>339579416
16:10 is GOAT on multiple levels
Why it didn't become standard across the display industry I'll never know
>>339578830
>>339578830
It's going to have airflow issues. Also that tiny stock fan intel fan wont cut it.
All in one PCs are pretty much only good for point of sales systems IMO.
