Absolutely stupid question.
Are there still PC cases designed to be horizontal (i.e. peripherals being properly oriented)?
I don't get it why there was the motion to make them vertical towers.

I supposed they bloated it with Source 2, but figures since I used to get 120fps locked at 4K with a 3600X+1080ti.
other than the RGB shit, pic related is my brother's PC, the only build I've done in my life that I'm actually proud of (I live in eastern Europe so most builds I've done over the years were low to mid-end PCs)
I was very surprised to find the 7700X running so hot on a 360x38mm CLC
>>103948229
yes
I mean, it doesn't have to be specifically a desktop case, you can just stick rubber feet on any case

There are horizontal builds but they have shit airflow. Also, I'd guess they are better for modern tables space optimization, specially with gaming builds.

Because it stopped making sense to put stuff on top of them, and when that happened, it made more sense to make them take less horizontal space.

I wanted to add that I think this case has no obvious cons other than having a filter only on the bottom fans + top front panel replacement has the ports centered in the middle instead of being in front
the Dynamic EVO has a bit less customization options like low/high motherboard but it gets the aftermarket mesh panel

The funny part is that even the bad PC ports are unironically way better now than they used to be.
Go back far enough and you'll find games that can't even go over 1080p, don't have mouse and keyboard support, don't have proper controller support, have hard 30 or 60 fps framerate caps, and have all kinds of stupid quirks like games not working because you have too many CPU cores. Steam didn't even have a refund system back then so if you bought a buggy broken game you were stuck with it and Valve would tell you to go fuck yourself unless it was a Batman Arkham Knight/Brink situation.
Shoutouts to all the shitty porting studios like Gearbox and Sourcenext who managed to take really good games and make them fucking dreadful and almost unplayable on PC.

If this deal is still available after a month or at when 50 series/ 9070 benchmark comes out, which one is the go-to one? My requirements are 95% gaming/ 5% casual JAV porn usage. This will be my first PC, I feel like the third option is brain-dead when the mobo cost more than the CPU but is nice looking with its error code display and design. Also, tis he $10 upgrade for a corsair RAM worth it?

I want to get a GPU before the economy gets gay. I have a 3070 and run a 5140x1440p monitor; not ideal. What are the odds I can actually get a 5080 on release? Perhaps I should snag a 4070 now and then try to get a 5070 when it releases?

multiple retailer insiders have confirmed the 50 stock is going to be nonexistent, the best move will probably be to wait for the Supers or snag one when the inventory comes back, you won't see realistic inventory until probably Q2 or Q3.

Upgrading from a 6700k on a Hyper 212+ and a 1060 6gb in a Fractal R4. Was thinking of going for a 9800X3D and 5070 TI when it comes out. I hate noise/dust due to carpet in my room and don't want to fuck around with water cooling/AIO leaks and radiators, I also hate my PC turning my room into an inferno like a space heater. The 9800x3d sounds like it runs stupidly hot and is prone to throttling on air coolers and especially in noise insulating cases which I don't think anyone buys anymore. Do I just have to suck this dick and either get a good airflow case on a Thermalright Peerless Assassin 120 SE to make it work? I'm not spending $150+ on a tower cooler that blocks M2 slots either.
Is there a step down from the 9800X3D for gaming that has good performance but much better air cooled temps? I'm many generations out of the loop and their site looks like shit on the specs/benchmarks.

I've never seen a compelling argument for X870 boards. They just don't seem worth it at all.
As for those other two MoBos they honestly seem pretty similar. Really the main difference I can see is that the MSI board has S/PDIF out port and generally better sound infrastructure which might make it a better choice if you're an audiophile or musician or something. The MSI also has better USB ports but honestly I don't think that matters too much since most of the USB going into the back of your PC will be keyboards, mice, peripherals, and such that don't really benefit from higher theoretical speeds.

I've never seen a compelling argument for X870 boards. They just don't seem worth it at all.

/pcbg/ help me pick a motherboard for this: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/HftRFZ
The "already purchased" storage is what I currently have, to give an overview of the ports I'll need.
>ATX
>extra SATA/M.2 always nice but not essential
>wifi not needed, bluetooth might be nice but not essential
>ethernet 1Gb/s needed, more might future-proof me but not essential
>bunch of USB ports good, standard audio ports good, that's about all I need
I want something that's good quality in terms of power distribution and shit, and ideally that I can expect to last for a while, but without overspending. The motherboard landscape looks crazy right now
My current motherboard has a POST code display and I've used it in the past when it wouldn't boot, but apparently this is a luxury feature now? So I don't know
I don't have any recent AMD CPUs so I think that means I can't get a B650 (since it'll need a BIOS update), right?
Also other criticism welcome (especially around the SSD - would a gen5 instead be worth it? - and the exact model of 7900xtx, though remember UK prices)

I mean technically AIOs are larger, heavier, and take up more space, it's just that you don't have it located directly over the CPU.
But I do see the appeal to them. I used to use them several builds ago, but overclocking isn't really worth doing anymore so I'd rather go with a "good enough" choice that I never really have to worry about again. Also the air coolers are generally a bit quieter than the AIOs since they don't have a pump running.

I think you're using older logic from when they first began coming around. They've been superior for about 15 years now. Having the rad as an exhaust is the superior setup. Retards breaking their pumps mounting them in the wrong vertical front as an intake give them a bad rep.

Ability to use more m.2 slots in gen 5 without sharing part of the chipset and reducing PCI x16 to x8, better VRMs, better voltage control, more safety features, generally more "future proof" spec reqs like USB thunderbolt, wifi7, usually 2.5-10 Gbps LAN, aftermarket LAN intel drivers, etc. etc.
Stuff that the average gaymer shouldn't worry about.

there's like 2 orientations you can use for intake front, one will definitely destroy the pump in less than a few years due to air bubbles getting trapped and the pump struggles, the other is kinda meh but still "works". Top exhaust is the way they were designed to be ran.

I still can't fathom why having it in a specific way on the front would somehow introduce bubbles (surely it's supposed to be completely filled with fluid right??).

hot air rises, you'd be working against just heat dynamics, you'd be intaking air from top to bottom which would meet air you'd be intaking from the bottom and front and the air would just be circulating around.

Is there anything I need to do after updating BIOS, the old build was almost 2 years old.
I've got a MSI popup after doing it with a bunch of MSI-provided driver updates, but I figured I'd do them myself if needed instead of relying on whatever outdated stuff MSI throws at me.
Do I actually need to update shit like chipset or audio drivers or am I being memed?

>>103949695
You can have a rad in front as intake with it's ports on top and the pump lower than the ports. This ensures that bubbles do not travel to the pump and build air pockets. I recommend using a rad with additional refill port and checking the fluid level once in a year. The top position as exhaust of course is the better option if possible. But what do if you have two AIOs or two dedicated custom loops, one for the CPU and one for the GPU? I would then use the top position for the GPU rad because it produces much more waste heat under load than the CPU and I want to get this heat out of the case ASAP, not blow it into the case.

Frequency is relevant which is why the 5800x3d is about 10% faster than the 5700x3d while it's also clocked 10% higher. The 9800x3d is also faster than the 7800x3d in games mostly thanks to the 7% increased clockspeed as zen5 didn't do much for games at all.
It's just that tripling the L3 cache improves the performance per clock higher than you would lose from losing 12% clockspeed.

The inside air may be warmer than ambient but is not exactly hot if you have 3x140mm front fans, a perforated bottom with perhaps even additional fan and if you don't install other radiators as intake. What you achieve with an intake rad is just that your fans can spin a little slower to provide the same level of cooling as an exhaust rad with fans spinning a little faster at the price of heating up all other components inside the case that are not themselves cooled by intake rads: GPU, SSDs, VREGS, RAM. This is not what I want. Do you want this?

Nigger I have 5 5.25'' bays and my one 140mm front fan is blowing across four HDDs and two SSDs
My bottom is not perforated which is a good thing because it's full of dust why would I literally suck up all of my dust into my PC
You do make a good point about heating everything else up though so I may reconsider

I'm sorry to hear that your case has no easily serviceable dust filter over the full length of a perforated bottom.
> 5 5.25'' bays
And? Do you make any use of them? If you can dispense with just three of them you could install another 120mm fan. But the better solution for cooling would be a new case like picrel with large intake fans and dust filters.

I hate pretty much all new cases.
For example, can you explain to me why none of them have side fans over the GPU anymore? My GPU gets fresh cold outside air blown right onto it by a 200mm fan. Your pic related doesn't even have the cancer window and yet they still didn't add a side fan.

> why none of them have side fans over the GPU anymore
It's more costly to produce and demand for it seems not high enough.
The fan would further reduce the space for the GPU requiring the case to be made extra-wide or the fan would have to be installed outside of the case which does not look attractive to most people and makes more noise.
It would defy the concept of creating an airstream (would disturb it) from the front/bottom to the top/rear.
I understand that a side fan would be the first choice if cooling the GPU had priority over everything else or if the GPU could be housed in a compartment separated from the rest of the internals with a duct leading intake air to the GPU and then directly out of the case. This would be great. I think some prebuilds from Apple or others featured this. My old Lian Li btw had a side fan for cards but the mainboard had to be installed inverted, picrel.

I really just don't see why cooling the GPU has a lower priority than "airflow", especially when again the front is where bays and HHDs go. If you've got a good cooler on your CPU and a fan blowing on your GPU, what more do you need?
>costly to produce
That I can get (though there's plenty of idiotically overpriced cases, and plenty of weirdly sized ones too).

I know that the industry sells concepts people want to believe in but "airflow" is not that stupid for once. It starts from the assumption that all components require to be cooled equally and that all waste heat has to be transported out of the case as effectively as possible, rather than focusing on the local intake of fresh air and neglecting the accumulation of heat inside. This is best achieved by taking in as much air on one side and have it move through the whole case to the other side where it is blown out. Since warm air has the tendency to rise an exhaust in top requires the least work from fans. All components are supposed to be positioned such that the airstream moves over their surfaces/heatsinks. To optimize cooling of the GPU within this concept I recommend getting a case that has a perforated bottom (with dust filter!) and installing a fan on this bottom under the GPU.

The only way I can possibly see OLED working right now is if you have a corner desk (like i think you do right now) and just rotate to face either one side or the other depending on what you're doing. Then maybe, I can see how you could possibly make it work. For anyone with a straight desk though OLEDs are basically out of the question (unless you like "upgrading" your monitor every 2-3 years like it's an iphone).

>chipset
Yes so you get better thread and power management etc. Always keep chipset drivers up to date. But always use chipset site, motherboard sites all have outdated drivers.
>audio etc
Fuck this shit, just get recent ones after every fresh windows install.
>2 years old
When jumping multiple versions or doing major update I usually clear settings and do everything from scratch, not just following my checklist but also looking for any new/different options.

Sure you can intake from the top but what then? What is supposed to be done with the warm air from a top radiator?
> I have no radiator, only fans in top
Your fresh air will be pushed out of the case before hitting any hot part.
> I have all other fans in rear and front as exhaust
Okay but this doesn't cool other parts on your motherboard nearly as effectively as with the mainstream solution that usually allows for more and larger intake fans providing fresh air for all components.
> I have only the rear fan as sole exhaust
You will have warm air stalling inside the case.

Should I bother going there and trying to get a 5090? I figure it'll still be crowded due to people trying to scalp as a result of the unique-ish place it's located in, and people from neighboring counties but I also live really close by and figure that maybe if I show up a few hours beforehand that I can get an Astral since I doubt those will move if they get at least half a dozen of them.

I like them, some people hate them
It's nice to have it be more straight-on wherever you're looking. Even if your panel has good viewing angles, it's still weird to look at things edge-on. Only matters if you've got a slightly larger monitor of course (and/or are sitting quite close to it).
Some people complain that you will see straight lines as curved, but I switch between curved and straight all the time on different setups and I literally do not notice any difference in how straight lines look to me

Almost all monitor arms I've ever used are at least a little bit stiff to adjust. Having to constantly, at least twice a day if not more, move one monitor way off to the side and bring the other in the center and then back around sounds like hell.

Like I said I do not see any issues or differences in how straight lines are displayed, even when using my monitors for shit like sketching or CAD, so in my opinion - no, any game will not look different either. But apparently some people do complain about this so YMMV.

curved is great for working and opening multiple progams and documents. for gaming it just generates extra useless space or black screen space
32 inch is just better and scales with some extra space but nothing crazy. you also can sit further from your screen

They will, if you think they are going to blueball everyone after doing the biggest military build up since the 1930s with the explicitly communicated goal of taking Taiwan by force by 2027, you are wrong. It'll take a decade or more for Intel and Samsung's fabs to catch up to where TSMC will be.

Not really though. If you benchmark new nvidia GPUs TODAY, they still do more or less the same in DX11 and DX12 in the games that offer both as a choice, same as it was back then.

I can scale 27" down to 24" manually but it's not 1920x1080 but rather a weird resolution like 2206x1260 or whatever and some games + recording software don't like it.

Why do GPUs typically have some plastic or metal cover around one or both sides of the card? How does air circulate through a GPU when there's two fans on one side but a solid plate on the other side? Why aren't all GPUs designed like the 5080/90 Founders Edition with open access to the heat pipes for air to flow through?

it sucks air in, pushes it across the heatsink, and then neatly exhausts it from your case
retards don't buy blower cards anymore because they are louder, and normies have an obsession with making their PC as quiet as possible even though they can't hear it with their headphones on anyway

Come on man you need to do your own research. For starters you've picked the non super which is already a little slower than the super version just for a small $50 discount from MSRP, on an almost 2 year old card. In addition to that the 5070, which is supposedly around 20% faster than the 4070, is also going to launch at $550 anyway so you'd be leaving performance on the table by buying right now. Not to mention the 9070XT may give the 5070 a run for its money at a similar price bracket. Waiting seems to be better option at this point barring supply issues.

There's no sense in buying a 2-year old GPU right before it's replacement launches in a matter of weeks. Best case you pay the same amount for an extra 15-20% on the newer gen card. Worst case buy the old card at the same or lower price as store discount them to clear stock (perhaps much lower if you don't mind buying used as users offload their old 4070s on Ebay to upgrade).

>Ah, so that's why it was a little cheaper. Should I be buying mainly from Aliexpress?
At least for AMD CPUs yes. But I wouldn't bother buying into AM4 at this point as there's no real upgrade path available for it. You can get a 7500F, which after PBO is enable is basically equivalent to a 5700X3D/7600X in gaming performance along with a good DDR5 kit and AM5 socket mobo for less these days and still be able to drop in a far more powerful CPU later on cheaply without having to rebuy the Mobo/RAM in a brand-new platform:

5070ti for dlss4 mfg.
40 series and everything below is dead because of no mfg support
just like old phone don't get updates anymore at a certain point.

would go for a 7800x3d instead of a 9800x3d because of efficiency reasons?
doesn't the 9800x3d draw almost double the watts the 7800x3d does?

You can just set the 9800X3D to the same PPT as the 7800X3D in the BIOS if you're that worried about power draw

it has full bandwidth hdmi2.1 ports so you will escape the DSC Jew at 4k144 if you have a hdmi2.1 gpu
140ppi is too small to use unscaled at desktop still, imo, but your opinion might vary
what I'm saying is essentially you might end up with the same or slightly more real estate as the QHD monitor after scaling, unless you use 100% native, but you will get more pixels for muh details
if you intend on 100% native I would go even larger 42"+
but that is my take, if you have eagle eyes sure use 140ppi 4k native

9800x3d is cooler than the past x3ds

that poozen arch did not scale with frequency in gaymes very good, does not mean its not relevant

this shit should cost 300$ at best
but now we are at double for a fucking 8 core
amd did put on the small hat long ago

why would you care about such small irrelevant things?

the fact that you CAN use a dual tower on a 9800x3d should be seen as a benefit not a negative to be forced to use the aio meme
it's fine, why would it not be?
8 cores could be cooled by dual towers for forever, you could run a 9900k on it too

Pcie 5 slot for the GPU (wont be needed for at least 2 or 3 more GPU gens), More M.2 slots, more and faster USB ports, faster networking, nothing that really is needed by the average gamer, more for those with productivity in mind

If you get a 13 year old to steal a GPU, there's basically no risk for either of you

think of this as your entry to real estate investing
buy 5090, get credit, take loan, buy multi duplex house, rinse repeat
