What's wrong with MSI?

>>57813471
Standard uninteresting cookie cutter shit.

It will serve you well anon.

>>57813471
you won't know until you get it all powered on, with an OS installed, and do stability testing at stock clocks, and then stability testing at your overclock.

>Resting mobo on the outside of your anti-static bag

lol

Fuck off.

Not your blog.

I'm resting the board *on* the antistatic bag + I have the antistatic strap on. Following NASA procedures, my dude.

>>57813590

How do you run these stability tests? What software?

How much faster can you usually overclock RAM?

I have 16 gigs of this:

HyperX Savage 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 (PC3 12800) Desktop Memory Model HX316C9SR/8

>>57813706
You can bearly overclock ram, and the risk of destroying it isn't worth it.

>>57813677
The outside of the bag is conductive, the inside isn't.

We have a general thread for this, retard.

>>57813735
Sorry man. I misread your post. I thought you meant I should keep it inside the bag while I'm working on it.

I know it's conductive, but I've seen many engineers at NASA rest their much much more expensive boards on the antistatic bag, so I assumed it's safer.

nigger you've been on /g/ before right?

>>57813471
why dont you /suckmyfuckingdick/

>>57814310
Bruh I been working with boards, serial communication, freq, analog, and all types of shot since 2005. I've watched a bunch of videos, I've seen the govt pay 500 bucks for a roll of esd tape. I've NEVER seen someone zap a board and dry components.

>>57813733
and you can barely spell

>>57813706
don't overclock your ram you retard, overclock your K series cpu via the multiplier until your heatsink can't dissipate the heat, then roll back your voltage offset until it's unstable, then figure out where to go from there

Were there any big Black Friday sales this year on video cards? I noticed that EVGA didn't do one. What'd I miss out on?

>>57815466
>I noticed that EVGA didn't do one.
They're trying to recoup the losses of all their faulty cards that caught/will catch fire.

A year ago during Black Friday/Cyber Monday I got a sweet deal on my GTX950 that I'm still using to this day, so I was hoping to see something good from them again, like maybe the 1050 for the same price.

>>57815466
they did, you're just too much of a retard to know what b stock is

>>57815557
Precooked?

>>57815557
I saw the B-Stock sale. That was a sale on select old cards, faggot. It wasn't a grand sale on everything like last year. I'll fucking punch you if I could, you piece of shit.

>>57813471
You should build inside a grounded case, resting it on that bag might've fucked something up.

Now enjoy having the thought of potential ESD causing minor problems rest in the back of your head forever.

>>57813896
well it is fine as long as you don't create friction. i mean technically speaking you could rest your parts on the carpet just fine as long as you don't create friction.

you can even create a static charge on hard surfaces like regular old plastic. most plastic isn't conductive, but nearly all plastic can allow static to build up on its surface if you rub against it hard enough. that static won't travel through it of course, since it isn't conductive. but it can build up on its surface and quickly dissipate.

>>57813735
this isn't actually true. some bags are slightly conductive on the outside, while others are anti both inside and out. if its a silvery color bag its 50/50. you would have to test to find out. if its black then its most likely anti static inside only.

since most of them that are only slightly static capable on the outside, its fine as long as you don't start rubbing the object against it like crazy.

>>57816912
Next he's gonna put the cooler on, and when he tries to put it in his case the motherboard is gonna snap

>>57816912
There is literally nothing wrong with that. Every one does that

>>57815984
What case is that? My PC parts is arriving today, with Enthoo Pro M.

if you are on /g/ you should know esd is a meme, just get naked lik Lain ffs

no they dont

Look if you are going to go full retard at the very least get something thats not red or green

>people always freaking out about static
>DUDE YOU GOTTA GROUND YOURSELF

I've built a gazillion systems at work in the last 5 years and never was any of them damaged by static charge. we even tried to cause damage with it once on an old board but it didn't do shit.

did any of you ever actually break something like that?

>>57813505
Worst mobos are made by msi

>>57818148
>>57814459


my msi board is just fine underbudget,and all the bells and whistles

>>57818148

Do you have actual sources to back up your claim? My MSI board works perfectly.

>>57818148
dont say this i used an msi board in my grandma's computer, it makes delicious banana cookies.

>>57813471
I'm triggered

Don't put your mobo on the highly conductive outer side of the anti-static bag, it will cuck your shit up, rather rest it on the packaging the mobo came with.

>>57818254
How do I connect my pc to monitor?

>>57818148

mobo should have been asus
memory should be gskill
graphics card should be MSI
PSU should be EVGA
case should be corsair
CPU should be cooled with EKWB

Whats the best gpu cpu combo? Should i wait for zen? I feel like amd tend to have better bang for the buck but more compatability issues
