  1. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Ended up buying the ASROCK B550M from Amazon to get the 5% CB since it was the same price.

  2. Rosewill FBM-X2 Micro ATX Mini Tower Desktop Gaming PC Computer Case, 240mm AIO Support, USB 3.0 $29.99 @ Newegg (SS)

    Yeah, a silly question really. I ordred the Lian-Li.

  3. ASRock B550M PRO4 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (PCI-E 4.0, ECC RAM support, 6x fan headers, 6x SATA) $90 + tax with free shipping

    And Amazon is matching again as well so the Discover CB would make it $95 + tax. The BIOS flash, USB-C Front, 2 x NVMe and proper PCIe spacing are calling my name... Some additional specs for the MSI Board that could be relevant: Wifi is Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 Bluetooth is only 4.2...

  4. ASRock B550M PRO4 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (PCI-E 4.0, ECC RAM support, 6x fan headers, 6x SATA) $90 + tax with free shipping

    How is quality MSI vs ASRock? Are they both still considered quality boards?

  5. ASRock B550M PRO4 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (PCI-E 4.0, ECC RAM support, 6x fan headers, 6x SATA) $90 + tax with free shipping

    Man! B550 started off not THAT much different in price that the cheaper 570 boards, now everyone and their brother is dropping prices. Wow, a lot of 1 star reviews although most are about compatibility with R5 3600.

  6. ASRock B550M PRO4 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (PCI-E 4.0, ECC RAM support, 6x fan headers, 6x SATA) $90 + tax with free shipping

    Oooh...now the plot thickens. With Discover 5% CB that would be $90.25 + tax

  7. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Well, the case has been purchased. Snagged a Lian Li from a Prime Day deal for $53.20 + tax after 5% CB from Discover. Eyeballing ASRock B550M Pro4 at Newegg for $95 + tax.....

  8. ASRock B550M PRO4 AM4 AMD B550 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard (PCI-E 4.0, ECC RAM support, 6x fan headers, 6x SATA) $90 + tax with free shipping

    Tempting....

  9. Lian Li LANCOOL 205 Mid-Tower Chassis ATX Computer Case PC Gaming Case - $55.99 at Amazon w/Prime

    5% CB at Discover as well. Just purchased the case for my new rig. Thanks!

  10. ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 mATX mobo (PCI-E 4.0, Wifi 6, ECC RAM, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1) $103.99 @ Newegg

    While it is indeed mostly useless it looks like that is the trade-off for having two NVMe slots including the one above the x16 which I presume is the PCIe 4.0. And since there are two slots, if the other is blocked you still end up with the same amount of useable slots as the TUF. Just a...

  11. ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 mATX mobo (PCI-E 4.0, Wifi 6, ECC RAM, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1) $103.99 @ Newegg

    Ah, I get what you're saying now.

  12. ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 mATX mobo (PCI-E 4.0, Wifi 6, ECC RAM, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1) $103.99 @ Newegg

    x1s are great for expansion cards I didn't need WiFi on my computer for 5 years...until I did. I can't predict the future so it was nice to have a slot to install a WiFi card into. Need more SATA than 4? Use that x1. Want to run a second video tuner card, video capture? x1. At this price...

  13. ASUS Prime B550M-A WiFi AMD AM4 mATX mobo (PCI-E 4.0, Wifi 6, ECC RAM, 1Gb LAN, HDMI 2.1) $103.99 @ Newegg

    I saw this yesterday but didn't get a chance to post it. This does seem to check all of the basic boxes: 3rd Gen Ryzen, PCIe 4.0 to NVMe and GPU (why else get 500 series MB), Enough SATA 6GBps for "legacy" devices, even built in decent WiFi Is this hot enough to jump on without a definite...

  14. Question Can't figure it out this time...

    You posted this comment before you started having the power cycling issues. I would propose that is SUPPOSED to be a 5 second hold to power off and the fact that it is not, means your pin headers are wired incorrectly. If it was me, I would recheck all of the basic stuff again now that you...

  15. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Thanks! That was a nice video. It would have been nice to know what "Low latency" timings are. There was a time when RAM makers took advantage of the Cas level number and artificially lowered it by increasing the other timings. Does that still happen or can I safely shop for DDR 3600 at the...

  16. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Used is no problem at all. The previous build before this one was mainly used parts from FS/FT. I think a video card especially, it might be good bang for the buck to tap into the gamer upgrader market. I've got to start putting together my short list of components to start watching for deals...

  17. Question New Build ~ $1000

    I've never been a flagship guy, so no worries there. I'm more of a 2500K, or 9500 Pro vid card, can't remember the nvidia card from a few years ago that had major longevity. I try to pick when a platform is good if not great value for the production. I knew AMD had new releases, but I didn't...

  18. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Thanks for the input. I can't decide if the cheapness of B450 counterbalances the future of B550. As far as video card, I would like to shoot for the bang for the buck leader as long as its not too pricey. This may end up being a two stage type build where I get most of the components, but pick...

  19. Question New Build ~ $1000

    Well, I just waxed nostalgic over a bunch of my previous threads (found the whole thread from my current build from 2013...wow!) That build is reaching the end of the road (3750K, Z77, 16GB DDR3, 256GB SSD) as far as my uses for it, so my wife will be taking it over and using it in her new home...

  20. XFX Radeon RX 580 DirectX 12 RX-580P8RFD6 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card.......$149.99

    Thanks for the info! I was going to retrofit an existing build. But, the wifey is used to the current desktop and wants to take it over. So, I've started to target bang for the buck processors and motherboards for a new build. Current build is 3750K with 16GB DDR3 with an SSD I bought when...

  21. XFX Radeon RX 580 DirectX 12 RX-580P8RFD6 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card.......$149.99

    Way too out of the loop on vid cards to decipher which new cards are bins, rebadges of older chips, etc. How does this deal rank on the bang for the buck category?

  22. Is a Retail Windows XP Pro CD/Key Useful?

    I have access to a windows 10 install, but i would need legit keys to make it work. So, I'd need a good way to get to a windows 7 key i could use with windows 10. I don't know if there's even downloads available to do any kind of tiered installs.

  23. Is a Retail Windows XP Pro CD/Key Useful?

    I wasn't aware you could still go from XP to 7? I know how to do the 7 to 10 but there used to be an intermediate step to get to 7 from XP. Care to elaborate?

  24. Is a Retail Windows XP Pro CD/Key Useful?

    I am going to be building a new computer for the first time in awhile and been going through some old stuff. I have an old RETAIL Windows XP Pro packet. Is this useful? Any strange upgrade paths to Windows 10?

  25. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    I guess I'm officially old now...is that what techies have today, a drawer full of Linux Live CD's? Fortunately, after reinstalling it, then Windows "hanging" again. I rebooted, tapped F8 to bring up booting into safe mode to manually install the driver and....it booted fine and hasn't had an...

  26. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    Probably, but after 3+ hours stuck in a "Can't Run Chkdisk, do a system restore" "Can't do a system restore, run chkdisk" loop. I was a little leery of proceeding down the win 7 path. I use Win 10 at work now, so the whole system shock of upgrading isn't there anymore either. So, it made...

  27. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    Well, just did a n00b mistake...I ended up snagging the Gigabtye AX200 card from Amazon but....my computer had Win 7 Pro! It's only compatible with Win 10. So, after apparently borking my windows install trying to install the driver from the included DVD I managed to recover after about 3...

  28. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    So, Etherent cables are a possibility, but unlikely. It's an apartment, but not in a big complex; single story side-by-side units. So, some congestion, but not a ton. Probably only a little bit more than living on a crowded street in a single dwelling. I'm unfamiliar with other non wifi...

  29. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    I'm also pretty unfamiliar with USB network plug-ins. Are they good/the same/worse than a PCI-E card? I've got plenty of USB's on the back but most would be 2.0.

  30. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    No, I don't plan to run a traditional NAS due to the reasons you listed (apt, bad security/performance with wifi). But, I would still like some sort of centralized storage. In general, and because of my wife's growing eBaying that needs a smoother way to take pictures and transfer them where...

  31. Discussion Dekstop Wifi Network Card Recommendation and Home WiFi Setup Suggestions

    A little bit of a broad discussion, but all topics intersect as well. First, the immediate question is: I need to install a WiFi card in my desktop so I can position my desk where I want to in our new apartment. I know little about modern network card specs vs marketing at this point in my...

  32. Suggested Good Way to Set Up Drives / Partitions/ Etc

    Interesting ideas. Love to hear some more. Thanks!

  33. Suggested Good Way to Set Up Drives / Partitions/ Etc

    So, I have a 256GB SSD, 1TB SSD, 2TB HDD. The small SSD and the HDD are my current setup. Everything is on the small SSD with some backups and old HDD copies on the spinner (barely even dented). With these 3 HDD's are there any suggested ways to partition, use them? I got the 1TB because I...

  34. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    While I respect your opinion, I dislike your condescending tone. It also discounts the real world issue of money which is clearly a determining factor in these "acrobatics". Also, your 3 suggested cards for use AFTER I buy a "decent" PSU have significantly different power draws under load...

  35. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    After examining the power draw of various cards I probably could get away with RX580 (potentially) as my cpu max and card max draw would be around 320W...but...that's running at quite the edge for the PSU. So, my revised suggested list looks something like... RX 560 4GB GTX 1050 Ti 4GB Refurb...

  36. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    Starting to get at least a little bit of a feel for the low-end market both in street prices, performance and used prices. It's helping to narrow down my options. It seems like the 1050 ti's are still trending at fairly steep (relatively speaking) prices versus RX560 (which is slightly slower)...

  37. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    Thanks for a lot of good info! So, my PSU is not as beefy as modern psu's tend to be to feed graphics cards. It's an older 380Watt. But, it does have a 6 pin cable. My budget is tight at the moment. Ideally I'd spring for $200-$250ish sale price to get future proofing but I'm not sure that...

  38. Missing 30GB on SSD?

    So, I'm pushing the limits of my SSD. It already has a useable number of 232GB. But, when you look at properties it says 187GB used, when you look at files there's approximately 157GB. Where's the extra 30GB? Overhead? Some kind of pagefile? some other third thing?

  39. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    I probably should clarify. I said gaming, but I probably just classed myself too high as I'm not playing any modern games at the moment. I've been playing some older F2P MMORPG's like Guild Wars 2 lately and similar. No FPS or anything. Anything is an upgrade over Intel HD4000. So your...

  40. Updating My Computer - New Graphics Card for PCIe 3.0

    Can you school me a bit on pros and cons of those cards? Anything I should verify on my motherboard to see if these will work (i.e. extra power connectors). Edit: Of course, I'm doing my own research too.
