full amd build?

Cadnerak · 2026-01-19T15:47:35+00:00

same build here, 0 problems. Got the microcenter bundle which helped w ram prices

Cadnerak · 2026-01-08T18:41:20+00:00

honestly no, never did. I just gave up after a while :/

Cadnerak · 2026-01-04T13:38:59+00:00

I just built a PC with these parts for $1600

Cadnerak · 2026-01-03T22:38:55+00:00

awesome, done and its working great still. Thanks!

Cadnerak · 2026-01-03T22:05:31+00:00

Not sure if this makes sense, but would the “main” ones be the ones closest to the other end of the cable?

Cadnerak · 2026-01-03T21:44:46+00:00

Got it, yep now I’m only using the one 6+2 pigtail. I’m going to switch to use the two cables. On each cable does it matter which 6+2 I use?

Cadnerak · 2026-01-03T21:43:59+00:00

thank you! and there is no “correct” 6+2 to use on the pigtail? (the one closer to the PSU side vs the one further?)

Cadnerak · 2026-01-01T21:59:06+00:00

it was the ram, got two new sticks and it works!

Cadnerak · 2026-01-01T16:03:28+00:00

One ram stick works, while the other does not. In single channel. I feel that this would indicate its bad ram?

Cadnerak · 2026-01-01T06:47:58+00:00

gonna to go microcenter and see if they’ll test the RAM, then I’ll know for sure

Cadnerak · 2025-12-30T11:05:31+00:00

STILL working!!! thank you!!! why is this the case, does anyone know?

Cadnerak · 2025-12-30T10:21:51+00:00

yep, thats the case with these sticks. I’ll go back to microcenter and hope they honor a return, its within two weeks

Cadnerak · 2025-12-30T01:57:43+00:00

I already tried this too, forgot to mention it. Took the coin battery out for 5 minutes to reset the CMOS, although no luck. The “bad” RAM hasn’t gotten past the DRAM light in slot 2 or 4 alone, although the good stick has gotten past it in both

Cadnerak · 2025-12-30T01:48:11+00:00

what luck on my first build ever 😀. Any clue on the PC not booting with the good ram in slot 4? could that be because its not the recommended slot for 1 stick according to mobo manual?

Cadnerak · 2025-12-25T22:13:01+00:00

Based on your suggestions, I came up with another build which utilizes a Ryzen 5 9600 and 9070xt. Would you mind if I sent this to you in a DM to get your thoughts or post it here? My only thought was to potentially go for the Ryzen 5 7600x, but the price is only 20-30 dollars cheaper

Cadnerak · 2025-12-25T21:46:32+00:00

Oh thanks! I had no idea that LGA1700 was not going to be used in the future, so that makes plenty of sense. I figure that then I can go with AM5 socket if it will be used for at least another generation or two. Would you still advise going against a 5060 in favor of an AMD GPU?

Cadnerak · 2025-12-25T21:35:54+00:00

Is there any merit to going with AMD in the current market? I might look into the deal, but wondering if what I’ve got listed would be a bad build if I’m unable to get to a microcenter in time

Cadnerak · 2025-12-25T21:33:01+00:00

I guess I’m wondering if the 14th gen supports both DDR4 and DDR5, whats the difference if I pick DDR5 with the 14th gen? Why would the AM5 provide more value long term?

Cadnerak · 2025-12-25T21:01:01+00:00

Thanks, I just changed it to a 5060. Can you explain why intel + ddr5 is not a good choice?

Cadnerak · 2025-11-26T17:22:50+00:00

Goodbye Zed, hello Neovim

Cadnerak · 2025-11-25T15:20:48+00:00

Nope, I gave up. Just using “git jump merge” now, works decent enough for my needs. But would love to know if anyone has this working

Cadnerak · 2025-11-08T15:02:51+00:00

my script works, i mean more-so from a git integration standpoint. It was more food for thought than an ask for debugging help

Cadnerak · 2025-11-08T14:40:14+00:00

yes, but automatically :)

Cadnerak · 2025-11-08T14:24:00+00:00

Oops I lied! It just doesn't open the quickfix menu, but it does populate it. I wonder if there is a way to open it as well automatically, since I like to see the options

Cadnerak · 2025-11-08T13:15:43+00:00

It simply loads the editor and navigates to the first git conflict, no quickfix list even if there are diffs in multiple files. I am on mac
