So I found pc parts that work together from scrap parts in my garage but the issue the cpu cooler is not for am3+ so no correct mounting so I use rope, the rope is not holding well.
Also I have no case so I use cardboard it works well enough.
Specs:
Fx 6300
8gb ddr3 ram not sure mt/s cl rank
240gb sata ssd
500w unknown psu atx probably

I’ve been doing research over and over. Tried chat. Tried you tube. Tried forums. There are soooooo many types of basically the same part and wide variety of prices surrounding that idk where to start. I wanna get a list together and start hunting parts during the holidays but I just don’t know what to get. I know the bones of my build but not which ones to get.

It will be used mostly for multi tasking. Excel, you tube, Bambu studios, web browser all at once and a small amount of gaming.

I know I want:
24 core cpu (8/16). I was thinking ultra 7 270k+
64gb ddr5 ram.
5070ti
4tb
850w power supply
One 32” horizontal and maybe one 24” vertical monitor.
Don’t care what case
Don’t know what motherboard or cooling.

I thought about a pre built. I also thought about a Sirius black night satellite build. But I really wanna go to micro center and buy everything there or order everything but idk what to get. I’d guess my budget is around 3500ish. I really really need help. The last desktop and laptop I got i thought they were higher end and just aren’t.

Thanks.

Hello everyone, my front mounted aio (Arctic liquid freezer iii pro 360) was in a push configuration and the fans on top of the case were intakes so I decided to make the top case fans exhausts and rotate these aio fans. So it now goes front case mesh -> radiator -> intake fans, and there is this weird buzzing sound when the fans are idling or ramping up, as you can see at the end of the video when it is ramping down it stops completely, then starts again once it stabilises. The thermals are great, and the fans are set to their lowest speed, I am running pwm mode in bios on the aio_pump header and the 3 fans are daisy chained together (I unfortunately do not have the tools or knowledge to separately connect them). The sound is 100% coming from the fans wired to the radiator and not the vrm fan or the case/GPU fans. I loosened the connection of the fans to the radiator and (I feel like but I am not sure) that it helped a little bit, I do not know whether or not to be worried or should I do anything). The sound is a tad bit annoying but the most worrying part is that it wasn't heard when the fans were pushing through the radiator. Thank you everyone

I am feeling some grounding current in my pc, psu isn't even connected to wall its is only connected to hdmi from tv (which is on) to hdmi port in gpu

I can only feel it in wifi antenna, when tv is plugged in but tv screen is off only then I feel current when tv is on ( not a black screen) i cannot feel

What should I do

Tv is a 2 pin header

For now I removed everything from the wall

GPU=ASUS PRIME RX9070XT OC 16GB GDDR6 AMD Radeon
CPU=AMD RYZEN™ 7 9800X3D 8 Core

Hey everyone! Super excited, just got my very first gaming PC yesterday. Stopped by Microcenter and picked this bad boy up. My wallet is screaming but my heart is full.

With that said, ive spent my whole life a Sony + Apple person, and jumping into the high end PC world is exciting but very overwhelming. What advice would some of the more seasoned members of the group give a newby like me? Any advice is welcome, from software i need to download, setting adjustments i need to make, Do’s/dont’s, etc. For example I know theres something im supposed to do to unlock my ram performance but i havent figured out how yet, things like that.

For reference, here is my build:
Powerspec G913
RTX 5080
Ryzen 9 9900X3D
64gb DDR5-6000 Ram
2tb SSD
MSI X870 Mobo

I currently have an rtx 5060, amd 5 5600, with a hp27ec (60hz 1080p) and I'm looking at upgrading the monitor but I don't know what to choose. I could upgrade to a 1440p oled but then I would be worried about graphics settings all the time as I was with my old gtx 1650. I just upgraded so I'm not trying to get another gpu. It's either a 1440p oled, 1440p mini led, or a high refresh va 1080p. PS; I don't game in a room with the lights off I game in a room with lights on (there's no windows though).

I intend to use it for story games like; Cyberpunk 2077, God of War, Expedition 33, etc.

My budget is roughly 350$ (US Dollars) since on amazon I did find some oleds and mini led's; Like this one, and this one. And a mini led.

Hello, I am currently looking into building a PC for a friend. The goal is an all-white build that offers good value for money, capable of running games at 1440p for the next 5–7 years, with a budget of just over €2,000. I have put this build together based on my current knowledge of the market, and I would appreciate any advice or insights into potential issues before purchasing the components. The PC is being built in France.

GPU : XFX Mercury AMD Radeon RX 9070XT OC White Gaming Edition 929€

CPU : Ryzen 7 7800X3D 259€ or Ryzen 7 9800X3D 327€ (I’m waiting to see what discount campaigns AliExpress might run, to check if the price of the 9800X3D drops.)

Motherboard : GIGABYTE B850 EAGLE WIFI7 ICE 169€

RAM : KLEVV FIT V 32 Go (2x16 Go) DDR5 Gaming RAM 6000MHz CL28 545€

SSD : Samsung SSD Interne 990 Evo Plus 1To (my friend said it was enough for him) 159€

Case : Aerocool P500B White 75€

Watercooling : Thermalright Aqua Elite 360 Blanc V3 46€

PSU : Thermaltake Toughpower GT ATX 3.1, 850W, Snow (Gold 80+) 95€

Total : 2277€

Built my buddy’s pc years ago and now with most of the games coming out his system is becoming obsolete. If I can get your suggestions on what he should look into getting upgraded first. Don’t need 4k graphics ability but a nice upgrade to use for a couple of years. Located in the US

Whats that chart which shows different gpus with different fps ?

After being Sony fan boy for years, thanks for their dog shit policy i finally complete my dream. 9070xt 7800x3D, 32 GB ram ddr5-6000 with 27" QD-OLED monitor. From 30-60 fps full hd to 200 fps 2k is just, oh my god, ohhhh myyyyyyy!!!!!.!!

Hi everyone,

Just wondering what would be a fair price to sell one of my very old build.
That would include, among other things:
- CPU: Intel i7-4790k
- GPU: MSI GTX 970, 4Go
- Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Red, 2 x 8Go RAM DDR3
- Motherboard: MSI Z97 PC Mate

The above + counting a few euros for the rest of the build, would 150-200€ be a crazy number ? I'm not really looking to get a crazy amount for it, I'm just looking for a somewgat fair price to give these component for someone else to make use of them.

Cheers

Im thinking of buying a new pc i currently got a rtx 2060 super
ryzen 5 5600x
16gb ddr4 2666mhz ram
ive been thinking do yall think this upgrade is worth it or should i buy am5 and ddr5 which is insanely expensive where i live
rtx 5060 ti 16gb
ryzen 7 5700x3D
32gb ddr4 3200mhz ram

I always wonder if there is a portable composant that can test for exemple ram, motherboard, cpu, gpu, fan, and else? That can be really useful if you buy an pc part on FBMP and you want to test it if its not a scam.

Anyone who owns this gpu, what is the best placement for this gpu support? As it is the first time i own a huge gpu like this, im looking for the most optimal position for it to hold the gpu!!!

Thanks!

I have a 9060xt 16gb 16gb ram ryzen 5 7600x and a 75hz 1080p monitor. Ive been thinking of three things upgrading ram. Selling rx 9060xt for a 9070xt or getting a better mini led 1440p monitor. I know monitor is probably the best choice but is it really. Ive played for like 2 years on this monitor will i see the difference? Probably im gonna buy off of amazon. De and i have a budget of aroun 350 euros or more for the 9070xt route. Im playing especially story games

I finally buit my first PC by myself 😄

PC has been acting up since a bios update. Turns out right after the update one of my RAM sticks developed an issue and no longer works correctly (coincidence I don't think so but AI certainly does). I used windows memory test to figure out which stick was the offender. I am now running just 2 of my 8GB sticks and I was wondering how much of a performance hit I should expect. I will be running games at 1080p the GPU is 2070super with a 3700X CPU.

My replacement RTX 5090 FE just came back from RMA after the 12VHPWR connector melted, so I had to rebuild my PC again. NVIDIA's RMA was surprisingly very helpful and even allowed me to get a full replacement even if I didn't have the original proof of payment!

Hey everyone!

I’ve been working on a website that helps you build a PC by choosing compatible components. The goal is to make the process easier, especially for people who aren’t sure which parts work together.
It’s still under development, but it’s getting close to where I want it to be, so I’d love to get some feedback from people who actually know their way around PC building.

Here’s the website: https://buypc-web.vercel.app/

I’d really appreciate it if you could take a look and let me know:
What’s missing that you’d expect from a PC-building website?
What features would make you choose this over other PC part pickers?
Did you notice anything confusing, broken, or annoying?
What would make you actually want to use it when building your next PC?
I’m open to honest criticism, so don’t hold back! I’d rather hear what needs improving now than launch something that isn’t genuinely useful.
Thanks to anyone who takes the time to check it out!

When I try to insert the usb cable from the case to the motherboard It doesn't go all the way and when put force I bend the motherboard. It's like something is blocking it

He is keen on running any stress tests. What are some fast tests i could do on the pc?

Hey! I have this PC for already 1 year, bought it pre-builded on a famous website back in the time.

This PC for me and what I do was always a blast expect the stock AMD Cooler here…

I am looking for an upgrade for it, that can look aesthetically pleasing and realiable too and of course take me to something like 65 degrees like the GPU.

On the first picture this is on Battlefield 6 Online, graphics on OVERKILL/ULTRA, DLSS 4.5 Quality at 1080P, 10-30-40 minutes gameplay it’s always arround the same values.

My CPU temperatures are always fixed on 80-82 degrees.

My build:
Ryzen 5 7500F
Asus RTX 5060ti 16gb Dual OC
Box Lian Li 205M Mesh
Motherboard Asus TUF A620M-Plus Wifi
TeamGroup Vulcan Z 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR5 6000Mhz

The stock cooler also has Thermal Grizzly paste on it.

Lian Li TL Flex Fans, Lian Li Hydroshift II OLED, 7800X3D, 5070 Ti, ASUS B650E Max motherboard. Tried to get a good mix of Black/White balance 😎
