I just bought the Zotac 1070 Amp Extreme and the motherfucker won't fit in my case. I've been crying for 20 minutes trying to figure out what the hell am I supposed to with it. Any suggestion, /g/? I don't want to spend more money on a bigger case

>>55962793
Because a lot of times the price difference between a 600 and 800W PSU of the same manufacturer and series is often negligible. So, why not just get the larger wattage and have plenty of headroom should it be needed?

In my case, the price difference between the ~600W, ~800W, and ~1000W was only about $10 per step. So, for $20, I can definitely run anything I throw in my system.

>>55962793

i don't get what's wrong with "milk" instead of the usual red coolant. at least i'm not riding the casual train.
also, what's wrong with the LED? can adjust the brightness from 10 different settings and even turn it off, and you can't even see the strip. 0/10 legit.

>>55964512
the guy you said has negative pressure.
i don't think so. he has a tripple rad in the top, reducing airflow.

Im sure itll get to 10/10 with that 8/10 as is.
>>55960884
Are those the new corsair fans?
You should test if having that as a phsyx card actually ads any performance, unless it is because you have 5+ displays.
Really like the matching colors on this, the only nitpick that I have is that you are so close to 100% monochrome that i'd heatshirnk that last header on the bottom desu.

>>55960986
I always like the bequiet coolers look, 8/10 I dont like the neon green grommets from a guts perspective but I bet it matches the case overall.
>>55961067
I think that the firestrike and timespy benchmarks are free they just dont allow you to alter any settings. Cinebench R2 is another one I have seen around but that is usually more about CPU and rendering.
Post your scores and Ill run some too
Really like the build and cable management 10/10

are the GPU temps good with the air from the rad as intake, I guess those 3 fans should handle it.

>>55961575
with the current setup of a 280 rad as intake and 240 in the top for out. my CPU locks at 35c in game (depending on games) and it litterally doesn't generate heat. so my GPU never goes over 64c in games. saw it peak to 71 once in firestrike.

Yes they are the new mag lev fans, I don't have many games that support PhysX but I'll eventually get Fallout 4 and test it with that, I do use it also because I have 2 analog monitors and each card only supports one. And ya I'll do something about that header eventually.

>>55964855
Yup, though I think the Acer is cheaper now compared to what they were at launch. It's not got the space of a triple monitor set up but the lack of bezels makes it a great monitor for gaming and photoshop/lightroom/maya work. Easier to run than 4K but still plenty of room.

It's a shitty pre-built that I've only been able to upgrade the GPU and psu.
>>55965032
I'm getting the corsair 750D for my next build.

>>55965032
coldzero.eu

>>55965061
a 750d will look fucking retarded if you're gonna use something smaller than ATX and a non modular PSU that hasnt been cable managed. go for a mid tower from corsair or the Fractal R5 which is my personal fav.

>>55965009
I got both cards for free. I'm laid off work and didn't have a PC, bought most of the stuff I wanted and a friend who was living with me for free a while back lent me a monitor and gave me his old 780, another buddy gave me a 650 he found in his closet and I bought the 2 analog dell monitors for $15 off kijiji. I've been slowly adding to the setup as I get money working on friends cars for cash and stuff like that. Probably gonna replace my mouse next.

If I didn't already have this 650 I would definitely grab a GT 610

prefferably aftermarket cooler on the GPU for lower noise and better cooling.
and you forgot to put in a CPU cooler unless you're gonna use the stock intel.

The CPU cooler is a custom part, I'm using the corsair liquid cooler and same thing for the gpu cooler. But thanks for the tip on the CPU.

Rerouted the 8pin and removed the ODD racks, also installed another Riing fan and slowed down the ones not on the rads. I'm to find something instead of the MSI sticker, I'm thinking on a piece of matte black plastic or metal.

>>55968489
I think I have the same reservoir, but I have 4 5.25'' slots and it's at the very bottom, taking up 2. So I can fill it from the 3rd and 4th slot.

>>55968559
oh yeah that's a big difference, i only have 2 slots. but my pump has a pwm cable instead of a screw to adjust speed

>>55968578
Yeah, I wanted the simpler solution and just set it and forget it. I'm not sure if I broke it or if it came that way, when I open it up again I'll pop upen the housing on the back of the pump and just adjust the trim potentiometer with a screwdriver. Stupid cheap plastic shit.

Hoes this? I probably could have done better with the cables but it was my first build, in the power supply is not modular. The reason the hard drive is in the top slots because I only have the data cables with the L connector.

How good is that 120mm radiator for cooling the 4770k?
I'm thinking of switching out my top down heatsink for an AiO water cooler but I can't decide on whether to go 120 or 240.

>>55968199
thanks man. I'm actually building two, one for myself and one for my brother (nearly identical).

He was on the main side and I was on the back side. Toward the end he just put the last power cable or two in himself and wanted to wrap up.

Aside from aesthetics, does putting them through the back matter?

>>55968408
I only paid $12 AUD for the 12 pin and $6 each for the 8 and 6 pin.

That was like 3 years ago too

>>55967941
Looks really nice. Such good picture quality too.

>>55968045
Take it apart and do it the right way. That lack of cable management with a modular PSU and case is unacceptable.

>>55968357
That's so beautiful. I love the blackout look, totally void of color and then the specs of shiny silver hardware.

Great job, easily one of the top three in this thread.

>>55968797
The difference is that the past titans have been all full fat chips.

I think this is the first time since the original titan that it's been a cut chip. If a 1080ti is offered, it'll probably be the full chip and not a further cut down titan.

If that's the case, it won't be released until the yield issues are solved.

>>55969223
Looks very good, there's not much I would say can be improved on. Totally aesthetic only, but I would recommend better hiding those loose cables behind the drive bottom HDD bay, get some tiny zip ties.

Well it's not going to beep because there is no system bell on that mobo, it actually should have been included separately.

Try rearranging the RAM. Instead of it in the far right, put it in the far left. Ensure the 8-pin CPU power is all the way pushed in.

Can someone please explain to me why you people are buying overpriced meme heatsinks? Sure, the OEM ones are complete garbage, but you don't need some $100 water cooler.

I have a 130W TDP CPU with a cheapo ~$25 heatsink and a 92mm fan. It stays safely under the maximum temp spec after hours at full load.

From what I've seen of newer CPUs, very few are even >100W TDP.

From what I've seen, water coolers add more noise from the pump rather than reducing it. I've had much better results with an entry level 120mm heatsink and a decently quiet fan. The only problem with those is some cases aren't deep enough and the side/top panel won't fit.

Like a retard I bought a meme cooler. It did not drop my temps. It did not reduce the overall noise level. 0/10 would not buy again, but too lazy to take off and sell.

I ended up banishing my desktop to a rack in my basement and accessing it remotely, both to cut down on noise and for the better cooling down there.

>>55975157
exactly why i'd go memetastic external, put the pump(s)/res and the rad/fans outside of the case a good distance away and just have to deal with damping the last few mechanical drives i run, and put 800-1200rpm fans in the case, and let that fucker be noisy some where else, i could also do that with the whole computer put it farther away and run a slightly longer cable for video and get a usb 3.0 extension/hub but i'll have to try it to see if i can notice the latency

and i already knew the shitty AIO pumps are noisy as fuck,i was talking about running 2 d5 varios in series and decoupling them

>>55974962
Because your $25 heatsink isn't going to support much overclocking.
Something like a Hyper 212 is fine for stock speeds and mild overclocking, but temperatures skyrocket once you start raising the voltages.

For the record a $100 AIO water cooler is useless. At this price level, air coolers perform much better. There are AIO water coolers that will outperform even the best air coolers (see: Noctua NH-D15), but these are generally both noisier, significantly more expensive (see: $200 for Fractal Design Kelvin S36, $320 for EK-XLC Predator 360), and too large for most cases to support them.
And then the difference in temperature between these top-of-the-line AIO's and their air counterparts is just a few degrees at most, but the difference between (I assume) your Hyper 212 and the aforementioned coolers is huge.

>>55975157
>water coolers add more noise from the pump rather than reducing it
This is correct. If you got an AIO thinking it would be quieter than a good air cooler, I feel sorry for you.
That said, you also managed to get a shitty ass entry-level AIO that has about as much of a place on the market as very low-end graphics cards. Good job, retard.

>>55975285
Is overclocking even a concern anymore? CPUs have gotten ridiculously powerful compared to their workloads, despite the best efforts of a million shitty developers to bloat things up.

My AIO cooler is so shitty it won 10 gold medals in the shit olympics. Load and idle temps are within 5C of a $25 air heatsink with a 92mm fan, on an identical machine with both at stock clocks with the same undervolt.

Also low-end graphics cards are great. IMO, the best value is with a card somewhere in the $100 to $150 range. I'm not much of a gamer and haven't touched anything but minecraft and yandere simulator recently. The last time I bought one was because my previous card was too old to output 2560x1440.

>>55975225
I've always thought it would be cool to have a setup with a huge external radiator and a gentle 300mm fan.

No, I'm talking very low-end here. Bottom of the barrel shit like GT 710 that barely manages to outperform an integrated GPU.

Have an RM650x as well. Pretty satisfied with it, though the ATX power cable won't clip in - it simply doesn't go all the way in. Still, motherboard seems to be working fine (ASRock Z87 Pro4). Anybody here had any similar problems?

>>55977591
>When was the last time you encoded a video or did some CAD rendering ?
Last week or so! I'm skeptical that the time saved by encoding slightly faster will ever make up for the time spent setting voltages and clock speeds and testing for stability. If it's just for fun, that's another thing entirely though.

There's plenty of good reasons to use a super low end GPU too. Not every CPU has an iGPU, and they're great for connecting additional displays past what the primary GPU supports. A second GPU from the same manufacturer will need to be new enough to use the current driver version, not a legacy driver, or the two will break each other. Also they're single slot and won't block more expansion slots like just reusing a previous card would.

>>55975285
Mid tier AiO will get you equal performance to the best air, top of the line AiO will perform better but they definitely don't cost as much as you are saying, the H115i for example is only $185 and it is one of the best.

Have either of you even used an AIO in the last 5 years?

Pumps are totally silent. Even pump noise of the past was from retards mounting the radiator incorrectly and introducing bubbles into the line.

Overclocked to 4.4GHz and boosting to 5.5GHz, it doesn't go above 50C at 30C ambient. I've been happy with it and I've had it for about 3-4 years now.

If there's not much price difference between a 120 and 240 might as well go either way. Just make sure it's not a thin radiator and that your fans have good static pressure.

it's supposed to be yellow UV, but everything in the loop is copper and i think there's some copper oxidation that's turning the yellow more greenish. might switch to pastel yellow next year when i have to flush the loop, and add white leds. now you can barely see that the backplate for the card is gold/yellow too

sleeved cables are 106€ so what's the point when you only see an inch of the 24pin and the same of the 2x8 pin.

Not to samefag, but have any of you guys ever made your own power supply shroud before? Would it help the look in my machine?

The only differences between mine and hers is I have a 6700k, 1070 and a be quiet cooler instead of clc

>>55978203
The stock cables are a pain in the ass, I plan on replacing both pc's cables because they are such a pain to plug in and manage.

No love for palit?

I want to upgrade Mobo and cpu but unsure if I will have to do a fresh install of Windows since I got the OEM version

>>55982979
Ah, that's actually pretty funny. A white LED strip in addition to the UV strip would probably look pretty sweet.

I always told myself that if I ever did a custom loop I would use matte black tubes. That would look nice too if you ever need to rebuild the loop for whatever reason.

>>55986435
1) Is that an Evga 970-A U3DP?
2)I like your case fans.
3) Any special reason for the heatsink to be pointed that way? Wouldn't it exhaust air downwards onto your graphics card? Sure you got the backplate but I can't imagine that being the best thermal setup.

>>55967181
Those backplates and water blocks from EK are quality shit. Put the nickle block and backplate on my 1080, barely gets above 35c now.

From doing my Gigabyte 1080 there are no warranty void stickers.

R8. I'm going to do some work to the bottom of the loop to tidy it up soon. First custom loop.

>>55986580
Oh wait it blows air through the heatsink out your top exhaust doesn't it? Ignore me I'm a retard. Still wondering about that mobo though, I think I have the same one: >>55969223

>>55986673
Looks really nice. Great job.

A lot of first time loopers are really doing neat work in these last few threads. It's nice to see WC is bouncing back.

My build from a few years ago was a black and white theme.

I like to change it up. Current build is yellow, next build will be either green or purple I think.

Should the CPU fan really be facing the case fan?

No
It's a Gigabyte GA-970A-D3SP

And I still think my case feels empty
I may put more case fans or a water cooler just to flesh it out
