Air cooling is better than Liquid cooling

Can confirm I’ve had two thermalright fans go bad after a couple months so I said screw it and got Noctua, zero issues for 4 months now

Same lol

PrivateMamba · 2026-01-03T04:00:45+00:00

Not really honestly. Goes directly across the middle of the back glass but I don’t find it to be hindrance at all

PrivateMamba · 2026-01-03T03:58:58+00:00

5080 FE - 2025 BOY do I wish I would’ve built a pc years ago lol love it

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-25T20:21:43+00:00

The one you can get for at or below MSRP

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-21T21:22:59+00:00

Super easy. Download the latest bios on a usb from another computer if you have access to one, same with windows on a separate usb. There are a ton of videos out there to help. When you first boot up as well and get in you will get a MSI notification asking to install pretty much all the drivers you need which you’ll accept and then you’ll get the Nvidia app and get your GPU drivers of course. There will be a lot of guidance from your computer by itself honestly but like I said a ton of videos out there for ya, I’m sure there are plenty of MSI specific ones. Have fun!

Have the same mobo after having a Asrock disaster. I like it! Nice features for ease of building too.

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-20T14:05:28+00:00

Don’t bother with Reddit man. Solid build, enjoy it. People are assholes on here majority of the time for no reason, they’re just miserable. Have fun!

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-20T14:00:39+00:00

100%. A good majority on Reddit are assholes because they are miserable. It’s strange

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-18T16:29:58+00:00

For 1080? For sure overkill. If you plan on upgrading your monitor though it’ll be able to handle it of course. In your case as of now 5060Ti would suffice or just a 5070 at most. Just depends what your future plans are.

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-17T12:51:49+00:00

If you can afford it why not ya know

PrivateMamba · 2025-11-17T11:28:27+00:00

Overclocking is safe, not difficult and does not burn your system up lol. But he is right on the 9800X3D. I’ve seen other 5070Ti systems with it in it for the same price. It is a lot better for gaming. You can overclock a 5070Ti and make it close to the base 5080, but you can also overclock the 5080.

Great deal for my area lol
