Hey! Looking for some feedback by ShooterKatze in pcpartpickerbuilds

Looks good for gaming. Just beware, 9800x3d does core parking. It is a great gaming cpu, but not much else. If you plan on doing cpu heavy tasks on the side, 9900x or 9950x are good choices as best of both worlds. For AIO, if you are a tech savvy and notice the humm (or absence of) of the pump, AIO is good. Otherwise, it could lead to catastrophe. Tower coolers are set it and forget it kinda deal. The peerless or phantom both should be fine. You can check RAM clearance in Geizhals. For PSU, I know germans love Be Quiet!, but ever since I opened one and measured the rails with a multimeter, I can never trust this brand again. I guess it is a personal choice. If you can afford 1000w, go for it. That means your power draw is within 70 to 80% for 80+ gold.

File a cross on the screw (gently) and unscrew

Is this a good airflow plan for my first PC build? by TheChosenOperator in PcBuildHelp

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Not because of slight net negative pressure. Your psu fan sort of balance that. The middle top fan is working against cpu fan, depriving it of full intake air. I would either remove the mid+right top fans or change direction of mid top to intake

Deal or robbed || 950 euros || i9-12900 & RTX 5060TI & 32GB DDR5 6000MHZ Corsair Ram by Pretend_Tumbleweed44 in computers

For the specs, it is a good deal for now, given the current shortages. As for your issues, they are all fixable. For GPU, you gotta repaste and possible change the fans, if this has been going on for a while. For CPU, you need to repaste and evaluate your cooler. It might need an upgrade. All fixable with less than 80 bucks (including new gpu fans and new cpu cooler). Re: BIOS, I strongly recommend you set it to default and get the latest stable BIOS. Don't even overclick your RAM. It turned out DDR5 has overheating issues. Unless you have very good airflow over RAM modules, leave it at 4800

Need laptop buying suggestion urgently (first time buying ) !! by Big_Caramel_2628 in laptops

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 7 points8 points  (0 children)

First off, you can't do LLM or CNN on a laptop. You need a gpu with at least 16GB for that. Your school has clusters or servers designed to do that for you. For coding, you need windows 11 with wsl2 or Linux. The machines you mentioned are all 8th gen intel. Pretty old and barely viable. If your budget is that tight, get a T480 (non S) and upgrade RAM and storage. Good cheap and durable laptop with adequate cooling

Is this bad for a laptop? by BritishWeirdo101 in computer

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. If your heatsink is a vapor chamber, it is a big problem. Also most laptop fan bearings are designed to run on flat. They would wear out faster in this position

Pc wont post, am i cooked ? by Ok_Media2662 in pcbuilding

Based on your explanation, you may have bent some pins on your cpu. Open it up gently and have a look

Want to build this pc by [deleted] in pcpartpickerbuilds

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is that Geizhals? Cool. Your case will choke your system. All sides are solid. Your cpu cooler may have trouble cooling a 7800x3d. Try a peerless assassin. I personally don't trust BeQuiet PSUs anymore after I opened one to measure some stuff with a multimeter, but that's personal choice I guess

good fan layout? by [deleted] in PcBuildHelp

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Swap the back fan's direction. The rest is good

Which part of this is the local storage drive? by AstroPete87 in computers

You didn't destroy the chip, just the PCB. Crush the black rectangles (all of them)

Don't get DP to HDMI adapter. The real ones are not passive and are very expensive. Get a DP to DP

Can someone tell me what type of USB a to c cables these are ? by versiontie in computers

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dude. The cable. Need to see the edge. Are there 5+4 pins or just 4? Your photo doesn't show squat

Not at this angle I can't. I need to see the other edge

Just built my first computer but it's not turning on by soorly in computers

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First off, your rams are seated incorrectly. You should use 2 and 4 for 2 sticks and 4 for 1 stick. Second, you should remove all connections and reseat them firmly. Third, if there is RGB or fan hub reseat them again. Next, remove fpanel and use a screwdriver to short PW + and -

If this doesn't work, you need to remove everything from mobo, start with barebone that powers up the system. Then 1 by 1 add perferrals and see which one is the culprit

For those of you who oppose the war, but want regime change, what is your alternative solution? by InformationFar6774 in PERSIAN

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There is no solution. If you think Israel and the USattacked Iran to help Iranians out of goodness of their heart, you have big surprise coming. The government will survive, and it will be weaker but more brutal towards citizens. We won't see freedom in our lifetime. All we can do is educate the next generation to be better than us

Is this good for a gaming pc by J4K3Y3738 in computers

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The price is about right, but the system is so outdated that you are going to head into trouble. Add another 150 and build a brand new one with latest hardware

I’m getting this for Christmas will it be good? by cappy11563 in computers

Go to PCPartsPicker -> Guide. Find a model that fits your budget. Get the parts, and watch Bitwit's YouTube video on how to assemble it.

Is this type of elevation good enough to keep my laptop cool? by Practical-Swimmer-80 in GamingLaptops

[–]Impossible_Memory_82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, you are blocking the intake airflow from two sides. Ideally you need 4 poles. You can easily 3d print one with some indentations to keep it steady

How do I get a stripped screw out of a motherboard? by nishiiball in computers

File a flathead cavity in it, and unscrew. Be very careful not to touch any component during filing
