>>57853920

>>57853938
It says in the speccy. Its nothing fancy but a big improvement after years of 1280x1024.

a bit older and a TN panel at only 60Hz, but certainly a nice upgrade over 1280x1024.

I'm thinking about upgrading to AMD Zen when it arrives.

My AMD FX 6200 is bottlenecking my AMD Radeon RX 480 hard

fuck intel and their botnet "intel management engine" (hardware backdoor in their processors)

Speaking of motherboards, I just bought all my shit and I'm waiting for it to get here. I didn't get an optical drive and I've only got a windows key.

Do I download an installer from Win site and load it onto a USB?

>>57852426

How's the noise level on that? I've always wanted an AIO, but kept going back to regular air cooling because of noise.

>tfw fucked up the cable management a bit and too embarrassed to post

>>57854231
well I changed the fans out for different fans so it depends what fans you use how loud it is.

>>57856463
Hope to see them soon, What's your part list looking like?

>>57856482
Heh, it's mostly old parts because I mostly play old games. I was planning on moving everything into a define s and add some noctua fans, just for fun really. I bought the original pc pre built (got a good deal) which came with the horrible looking antec 900 'gaymer case.

I should've listened to /g/, when they said MSI a shit. Should I return and get an XFX instead?

>>57861616
It doesn't sag, the pic is crooked

>>57854231
I've worked with one before. The H110i's fan are a nightmare if you leave it on performance mode. It's tolerable on quiet mode (the pump is louder there), but you get about the same performance as you would from a Noctua D14 with similar noise levels.

>>57861914
Depends if you can

MSI customer support is a bigger pain in the ass than prison. They most likely won't take it back, they'll claim you broke it. Or they'll send back a refurbished one, same thing as ASUS does.

>>57862472
I got it from Amazon. I do my business with Amazon, whether or not MSI takes it back from them is not my problem...

Are you suggesting that the front fans are installed wrong? I doubted it myself, but I havent had the time to flip them...

Why are PSU cables so hard? I can't organize them properly, I wish I could into cable autism.

>>57863975
Does your case not have room in the back for them? Also your ram is in the wrong slots, and buy some compressed air, that looks disgusting.

S340 Elite or P400s? I was thinking of getting the 460x but it only looks good empty.

Might have to move my mATX build across the world in my luggage next year. I have a $15 Thermaltake s3 case and all original boxes with antistatic bags. Should I try to fit the case or leave it behind with components packed in boxes? The case is something like 375x180x375mm

>>57867852
MSI B150M MORTAR ARCTIC for example. The PCB is white, and the caps are totally unpainted.

>>57868274
Fine. There's also the MSI Z170A MPOWER GAMING TITANIUM and MSI Z170A XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM. No camo anywhere.

White ASUS boards are even more stupid. They have camo on the PCB as well.

>>57868274

It's not a soundcard, it's a wifi module. When i have time to fix my house network, it will be replaced by lan

>>57868350
Well, you kind of just answered your own question on what you can improve on, right?

>>57868342
>both are grey-ish instead of pure white as the mortar arctic
thanks anyhow anon

>>57868406
Well, It's not like you can't remove the I/O covers from the Mortar and just re-paint the top of the two remaining heat sinks.

And it's at least digital camo...

>>57868373

I was particularly interested in some advice about cable management, maybe it can be better

>>57868026
Any suggestions?

>>57868026

I shipped my computer from Japan -> Europe, and then from Europe -> US. Seemed simpler and wasn't *too* expensive. (Like 150-200 bucks each time I guess).

Why do you even keep your hard drives inside your case? Why not invest in an external drive enclosure or a NAS?

>>57868836
This is me:
>>57865661 (You)

What you see is temporary. I am waiting for my SSD RMA, so you see my OS hard drive + cache drive in the picture. I have a 4 bay external enclosure.

The drive cage will be taken out, and an EK-XRES 100 SPC-60 MX PWM will go in its place.

>>57868836
why the fuck do i want to litter my desk with more shit that can nicely be hidden away inside my computer? i'm never going to move these drivers. i never need to take them anywhere. if i did i would be posting guts of my shitty laptop.

>>57868910
How about investing in some SFF-8644 PCIe HBA cards and building a small, hidden enclosure to keep the noise and wear on your drives to a minimum?

>>57868836
that sounds pretty retarded. I don't need it to be portable or easily dismantled.

IF the case is ATX. An external JBOD drive enclosure has only one advantage: you can go with a smaller case if you already have a smaller form factor motherboard, so you don't have to buy large fucking cases for your mITX boards like this one:

That mITX case is only that size though because I fully intend to place a thick radiator inside, and overclock the everliving fuck out of anything that has a MHz setting, that's why there's still a stock cooler on the CPU, haven't got all the water cooling parts yet.

Yeah, should have wasted 2+ hours of my own time acid etching it like a retard, fucking it up, having to do it again to get it right and spending twice as much time and money on something.


I'm happy with paying a dude $30 because he does it all day and has a multithousand dollar laser etching machine.

>>57869274
I haven't picked one yet. I was just pondering whether it's a good or a bad idea to order it from there for like 1/3rd the price if the specs are alright. I want to buy a 50-60mm thick dual 120.

The shit I bought I actually needed... well... let's say it's just ridiculous getting laughed at for owning only one screen. A six_hundred_dollar_screen_! Some buy 3 worth less.

It all started so harmless. At first these guts and battlestation and whatnot threads were just an incentive to clean my shit up. Now I bought shit to show on the pictures, only because the majority owns one as well... like I said, I'm retarded.

480bro here with an 8350, I'm also wanting to go Zen for better CPU, better board, and better RAM.
