>>62434976
>>62436547
What's with newer cases having these weird bays for the PSU at the bottom?
>>62438554
It's a trend that got popular with tempered glass sides panels. Not sure how I feel about the lack of actual drive bays on almost all of them

After I modded my VBOIS for 20% better gpu mining, my XFX card only lights up when in use. It still works fine, but you can't see the beautiful blue fan lights in this pic because of that.
>>62434976
whats in the bottom part besides the psu?
>>62435526
>>62435536
What case?
>>62434976
Didn't buy the fans. Amazon fuck up.
>>62434976
why not do the top mid to hide the fans? wish it worked on the itx

>>62439496

>>62434976
cables properly managed, good color scheme, looks good anon. really clean and really well done. I feel like you done fucked up with the 7700k, but to each their own. how are temps in that case?
>>62435526
im a sucker for sff builds. you did pretty well with cable management but theres small things that bother me, ive seen better but ive seen worse. good average
>paying the ungodly price for a slim optical drive in the year 2017
>>62436011
you're doing the best with what you got, the cables look horrible but it's a solid psu. love the old school case as always
>>62436260
like it, as always. still feel bad you got the worst 200 series cooler, still jealous for the deal you got on that mobo. She's getting a little long in the tooth now though, maybe upgrade is in the near future?
>>62436547
>1050 ti
another one cucked by miners and refusing to buy used hardware
what is that ungodly phanteks bracket there? why isnt that ssd in the basement? why do people still by itx towers that choke their gpu? why did you get a fan gril for that noctua? why did you get a slim rad for that poor cpu?
so much makes so little sense here
>>62438312
still havent decided if i like or hate the green. the different shades make it hard to love, but it kinda works. tuck your cables a little better, and maybe some weekend cut out aa routing hole for your cpu power.
>>62438709
whats all the hdd for anon? not a fan of the negative pressure, but ok. i really love the diy psu shroud, it really works for me, also actually good job routing the gpu cables. it triggers me that there are different gpu though. also, get ready for the dag increase and your hashrate to drop, could be a good time to sell the cards and upgrade to a 1080ti. you'll earn just about as much if you mine and equihash coin instead of eth, and have far better performance in gaming
>>62439588
continued
>>62438891
god i fucking hate that cpu cooler. your build itself looks good, im a fan of white mobos with rgb, but it looks ok as far as the build goes
>>62438957
jesus christ that loop could look so much better, switch your cpu tubes, route the tube from the pump to rad over the cpu to rad tube, consider flipping the radiator 180.
other than that nice job, how do you like that ek kit? its an interesting concept to me
>>62439588
I paid $10 for that slim optical drive on aliexpress. Seller listed it as a dvd drive but it ended up being a bluray drive which is perfect for me since it will be used as an htpc/vr rig.
>>62439172
Had a corsair PSU die on me, and my friend lost one as well.
>>62439666
Fucking hell anon, nevermind then. Ya dun gud
>>62439496
How did you apply the thermal paste for the True Spirit Direct 140? It has pretty large gaps between the heatpipes compared to other HDT coolers so you have to be careful in how you install it.
>>62439606
tubes on cpu are right, i might clean it up when i ad another rad but i dont mind the celtic knot mess, a240g is ok i guess, cpu hits low/mid 70s @4.8ghz
>>62438957
Ayyy evolv itx gang
>>62439736
I used Arctic mx-4 for that. I used a credit card to fill in the gaps a bit on the cooler and then just used the typical method in the cpu. Might try some other methods later on, working fine for now
What is /g/'s opinion on the Thermaltake Core P3?
>>62439955
At one time thought about getting it, but since I wasn't going liquid or aio I didn't. Will the GPU get enough cold air? I'm aware it's basically an open case, but it seems a little cramped up against the glass.
>>62439072
550w is more than enough, its a platinum tier 2 psu.
>pic related worked in a pinch halfway through upgrade
>>62439588
>feel bad you got the worst 200 series cooler
its a Strix 390°x oc that was a miner card :/, but I got it for $165 and sold a 6850 the same day for $30 so I have no complaints. keeps the cabin warm.
>maybe upgrade is in the near future?
Saving for that zen refresh/zen 2
I love this pc though first I ever put together, started as an i3 2100 and hd 6850. I will probably put a 2700k and the best 2011/2012 hardware in and have the pc I wish I could've built then. Gotta dig out the SD with the og pics someday.
>>62439496
I remember this. coming along nicely. tat the 980ti with an x3 on it?
>>62439793
beastly hsf, looks tidy
>>62434976
I like it. I wish my case had PCIe cable routing holes in the bottom of the PSU shroud.
R7 1700 @ 4.0, 16GB DDR4-3200@14, 1080Ti.
>>62440132
>tfw can't into pictures
>>62439987
I think so, but it still would depend largely on room temp. From what I've read it's actually as quiet as closed cases even though it's open by design, and it doesn't even get that much dust on it which is quite surprising. For me it's either the Core P3 or the Corsair Spec Alpha (yeah I know). I'm looking to build a new PC before Christmas.
>>62440120
Nah, not the 980 ti. They're gone now, that's a 1080 ti I managed to pick up for 550 literally brand new. Some guy on CL ordered one off Amazon, never got it, complained and they sent another, and he got both. I broke the seal on the box. It was a founders edition but I fixed that pretty quick.
Next upgrade is a gt 1030 so I can move back to Linux with windows in a vm. After that I've gotta save, next move that makes sense is really just threadripper
>>62440155
>(yeah I know)
I guess I don't!
In the end I went with a carbide 740 air myself.
Been looking around for something better, wondering if I maybe made a mistake, but I seem to come back to having made the right choice. In-Win 303 seems nice, but not so sure about the seemingly restrictive exhausts.
>>62440210
I mean some people might think the Spec Alpha looks like a joke but I did the white/red color combo. I have a triple monitor setup of all white Samsung LCD screens so I think it would go well with those. I am interested in those Air cases from Corsair though. What do you do with all that space? And do you have it on your desk or on the floor? I haven't used a case like that at all so though I'm interested I treat it more like a curiosity at this point.
>>62440184
go skylake x and vega64 air in cf. Live on the edge
>>62440227
Spec alpha isn't a good deal, doesn't even have a psu shroud. Premium case price with budget case internal structure.
>>62440251
>Spec alpha
It's actually about $50 cheaper than the Core P3 where I live. Are the Casemaker from Cooler Master any good? Around the same prices as the Spec Alpha here or maybe $25-$30 more
>>62440227
Yeah it takes up quite a bit of space on the desk. Takes some getting used to, but it's not like I live in a cupboard or anything.
>>62440297
I wish I could get bigger desks here like you guys usually do. I've already lost quite a lot of space because of my triple screen setup. Anyway I'll be sure to check the Air series cases before I get mine in the next few months.
>>62440251
As much as I would love to return to my house fire roots (8350 and 290x crossfire) I need them sweet lanes bb
>>62440267
case is a box, its mostly looks. but management slots with grommets and a psu cover make it look extra tidy inside. spec alpha looks like a $30 case with a bodykit
even the cheap brand cases look better
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/294NnQ/deepcool-earlkase-rgb-atx-mid-tower-case-earlkase-rgb
behold
>>62440465
You know, I had not even bothered to look at the empty insides of the Spec Alpha. Wtf is this? You're right. It looks good on the outside, but the inside is shit. I mean I've worked with those but the Spec Alpha now is truly overpriced even though it's cheaper than my other choice which is the Core P3.
>>62440646
Are you sure it won't be a chore to clean that P3 every other week?
>>62440132
Hello Mr Smith, how are things at Cisco?
>>62440723
I've read a few Core P3 case reviews from actual owners and apparently it doesn't even get much dust on it at all. Not like conventional cases at least, where dust is actually a problem mainly because of the air intake. As it is it seems like the Core P3 is just going to be like a piece of furniture in terms of dust accumulation, so at most I'd have to blow through it with a fan or maybe use a feather duster or something while it's all powered off a few times a month.

That said even if my CX430M has been working no problem ever since I bought it...probably more than 4 years ago now, pretty much hitting the limit with an OCd 4690K and an HD7870, I'd still recommend getting an FSP psu. Thise things are fucking heavy

Bought a new fan for the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO and slapped it on my workstation PC. The Be Quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3 that it replaced was shoved into my HTPC instead.
Call me an autist, but the Dark Rock Pro 3 was just too big and defeated the purpose of a side panel window because it blocked the view of the RAM sticks. My Ryzen 7 1700 is not overclocked so it doesn't matter, because it's still just as quiet and cool during video encoding.
R8. No bully
>>62439588
All that HDD is for my massive amount of movies games and programs. It's over half full.

Happens to me all the time when I have multiple applications open on my 6700k. If I'm playing a game but also have an IDE open, maybe discord, and chromium then it does introduce a lot of stuttering in the game. Depends on the game and the background tasks but still. If I switch over to my Xeon E5-2698 workstation and do the same thing everything is smoother but obviously the max fps drops a lot.

>>62451249

Literally anything can happen and no way to recreate the same thing on 2 systems.

>any of you turdba/g/s tell me whether it is possible to transfer an OEM PC to a new case? I have fairly powerful PC with a cucked card and want to slap a 1080 in there in a new case. Possible?
Not at all, Microsoft monitors the case you have.
i need a new camera, a new SSD, and a new monitor
>>62452068
yeah its possible. you'll want a new PSU too because the OEM ones are typically crap
>>62439955
mst be a pain in the ass to keep it clean and also whatever you do it will sound loud.
I rather have something completely closed and with some sound dampening crap going on. then again I own an all black H440, it's a comfy black box
>>62452201
Thanks. What kind of case would you recommend? Also, how difficult is it to transfer the components?
>>62452345

Retards still believe that this makes a meaningful difference on these good power supplies? I doubt you're even near 500W most of the time anyway unless you're maxing out the CPU (with a heavy OC) and maxing out the GPU at the same time.

Oops, I forgot about that thing, but probably the z370 platform will be more expensive, which could be out of my budget, and since it's a new release, it's likely it won't get a sale in black friday/cybermonday. But if it does, and it doesn't get way too expesive, maybe Ill go for it.

it runs like a charm
three 240 rads for 4.8GHz 2500K and two 290 OCed
fans at 600rpm and nothing ever gets over 60°C under load

You know how I know you're lying? I have 6700K as well and 2 games running at the same time (currently HOTS and FC Primal) all with Chrome running in the background without any stuttering at all.
Alt tabbing is completely smooth at all, so yeah stop talking shit.

Don't fall for AMD tricks kids.

To me, they are not very noisy at all maybe a slight humming but both cases I have had them in were very quiet.

My 7700k doesn't go over 60º on IETU stress test, with a kraken x62.

You can do with your money whatever you want.
In this case, please just don't try to convince yourself that you got the best for your money.
However, you might be in luck with down the line AMD finewine once primitive shaders are usable. But maybe not.
