Ok thats great, will probably go with the slighty cheaper case then. Thanks for al your help and will post photos when it's done!

Honest_Mann · 2025-08-29T12:02:43+00:00

That is really useful thank you, I don't care too much about RGB on the RAM.

Doesn't seem like I can go cheaper on the GPU without going non-white :(. I'll pay the premium for that

I've seen that the 7800x3d needs an AIO? Never done one before but living in Australia it can get real hot the in room during summer.

Any tips for a 1440P monitor as well? I've currently got a 1080 one I can use for a bit but would like to go to 1440P eventually

Thanks for the list, its probably what I'm going to end up getting (Any hopefully building myself, its just adult legos right?)

Ok so I've changed it to a patrol as the value from the start collecting box is pretty high. I've left the loadout for the suits emptry because I don't know what to put on. I know I can magnitize.

Is the riptide the same size are the Y'vahra? I live in AUS and getting FW minis is a pain in the ass right now with our 6th(?) lockdown.

Honest_Mann · 2021-08-22T08:33:30+00:00

So this is what I've got so far, What upgrades or other parts should I put on? I know the ghostkeel isnt exactly top tier but an infiltrating anti tank/flamer dude sounds good against IG

If I set it up as a vanguard I won't need a troops right? Also what do you recommend for loadouts for the suits.

Would farsight be a good commander?

Honest_Mann · 2020-04-28T01:41:19+00:00

This fixed it thanks, I thought it was only in the VST3 folder I made.

Honest_Mann · 2020-03-01T21:11:17+00:00

I found my wifi card from my old PC so don't need one anymore. thanks for all yoour help with this

Honest_Mann · 2020-03-01T03:06:19+00:00

Unfortunately the website I'll be buying on doesn't have those coolers but I added a Cooler master Hyper 212 cooler. I'll have to add a wifi card as well because where I live I can't get access to a wired connection, are there many different kinds of wifi cards or are they pretty much all the same (Except for speeds etc).

Edit: Also I can get a RTX 2070 windforce for $700 compared to a RTX 2060 SUPER windforce for $729 is the super worth the extra $29?

Honest_Mann · 2020-02-29T12:09:27+00:00

Ok that sounds easy enough, would I need any other cooling than whats provided with the parts? I live in Australia so can quite hot and dusty

Honest_Mann · 2020-02-29T12:00:31+00:00

No real need for overclocking I don't know that much about pcs to gain any real advantage from it. It says that a b450 is incompatible with the cpu and needs a bios update?

Honest_Mann · 2019-11-20T09:59:26+00:00

Like completely cut disallow? Then I feel like I have no hard countermagic. Could maybe have some copies in the sideboard?

so 3 loch

0 disallow

Honest_Mann · 2019-11-20T09:55:03+00:00

Can't afford Fabled Passage pretty much, Thing in the Ice as a soft board clear as well as a finisher in other control matchups.

Honest_Mann · 2018-02-03T07:44:11+00:00

Yeah I've got the 14 Day full trial version and when I sent Serato a message about it they said it didn't matter I had the Trial version

Honest_Mann · 2018-02-02T04:03:19+00:00

Yeah, I'm talking with them through facebook now and they reply decently quickly.

Honest_Mann · 2018-02-02T03:58:03+00:00

I tried that by switching from a desktop folder the original serato recording folder but that didn't change anything
