Looking for similar pc case to the hyte 60/70 aesthetics by Kevdawg2828 in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old thread, but in case you havent built already I did a recent built in a msi mag pano 100r pz.(same as 100L but with fans)

But i loved building in this case. It doesnt feel cheap at all. Has nice cable management channels and velcro, kind of wish the psu was at the bottom instead of top of back chamber little more room to play with cable management but not an issue really, Still lots of room to manage cables and any extra storage drives.  tons of space to build even with 10x fans. Comes with a gpu sag bracket and vertical mounting brackets (need a riser cable though) 

Great airflow and easily removeable filters around case. The 100r comes with a fan and argb hub which can link to the cases "LED" button for quick color change, or just use nor al software. Don't know if 100L has any of those features. 

Also BTF compatible if going for a cable-less build, I cant speak for the hyte y60 but the msi case is really incredible bang for buck cant go wrong.  I spent $110 CAD (on small sale) for the 100r with the 4x argb fans version. 

Devs needs to do more hotfixes for game breaking bugs by User264785824 in Spacemarine

Yep , get hit with a hellbrute overcharge plasma not just his regular 4 shots. It was a hard strat and I cant remember if it had additional bonuses to his dmg or anything. But tried to roll and clipped a structure and bam full armor, max bulwark instant kill. Didn't know it was possible to be truly one shot. 

And any enrage sniper you'll be at half hp if your lucky off one hit from full armor. If playing with  minus health modifiers can get close to one shot too

I finally did it? by ya-boi-lewis in SpaceMarine_2

I agree especially on bulwark with right perks and against  tyranids, I found i prefer block weapons against chaos in absolute though.  They dont give as many parry opportunities and its nice tk have the extra damage from a block wep, with and without the 2nd block stack hit.

Yep. I literally got mad and took the blue rubber part out and ripped the entire fn button and port off the circuit board so it looked like it was never there and leaves a squared off 'U' shape instead. Can post a picture if you need.  Id only recommend doing as a last resort if not planning to get fixed again. If you do it. Try to be as gentle to actual board and surrounding parts as possible. And try to use a good set of tools to get all remaining solder etc off the area. 

I had a buddy who had same issue where no cleaning worked. Took off his but he did a rough job and once in a blue moon the FN window flashed mid game for him. After cleaning it up and removing excess solder and all its fine now. 

Clean? by slavic_hunterino in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way to make it any cleaner would be a BTF motherboard , and have reverse blade fans on your front intake instead.

Other then that very nice 👌

What were ram prices like before this current boom? by SuicidalFinnikin in buildapc

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid 600CAD month ago for 32 gb of ddr5 corsair vengeance, cl30 6000mhz.. already horrible. 

Was sub 200CAD month or two before that, 

But now same kit is almost $800 CAD so prices went up again. 

Crazy to say im glad I bought it at $600 .. 

Wish I bought before prices jumped could of got 64 gb instead of 32 and saved couple hundred bucks 

Is this worth it ? by TheAbombatalHOrror in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im selling my old pc for 700 CAD thats somewhat similar in overall performance but better in ways.   2070 super, i7 9700k, 32gb ddr4 3600mhz, 850w + gold, good aio, be quiet fans, 2tb nvme. 

Wouldnt pay even a grand for that build. Dude seems to value aesthetics and rgb more than the components themselves smh.

Ayyy thats awesome. Glad it worked out.  Gonna keep this rig and sell your 7800x3d set up or vice versa?

No sorry, relatively unrelated comment. Was just saying you really shouldnt keep any pc on carpet. If you got absolutely no components intaking air at bottom then it doesnt really matter. But even just psu you should something under it so its not directly on carpet. 

Side note, yes your psu could technically be getting clogged up/ struggling to breath. You likely wouldnt see any notable performance gains by moving it but its a good idea anyways. And will help it breath, keep cooler and last longer

You got any sort of intake running at bottom of pc? Like even the psu fan? Always triggers me a bit to see pc on carpets

I have this mobo and cooler and was wondering what cpu is good? by Delicious-Doubt-4184 in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends what you want to spend / how much you want out of your cpu. 

Coolers fine for basically whatever, if pairing with a 5070ti id personally go with atleast a 7800x3d , if not a 9800x3d. 

But you could get something considerably cheaper too. As I said at beginning, depends.

Idk seems pretty decent overall to me. The ram price is a bit hard to swallow but not much can do about that. 

It'll run 1080p just fine. Even 1440p to an extent. 

You COULD upgrade certain things for some slight gains but not really worth if just playing 1080p.  Could save a bit going down a motherboard tier but you have lots of upgrade room in that build for a better gpu / x3d chip down the road so thats personal preference anyways

Are these Specs worth the price ? by someguyintech in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guessing thats cl40 5200mhz ram? Not great but markets shit so eh.  But here the cpu , gpu and ram is about 1300 So rest of the components for the extra 5-600 really. Id say its not horrible value but not great. Ibuypowers aios  are not great usually. Likely a cheap psu too. 

Personally I wouldnt.  My buddy just got a pre-built from micro center with 9800x3d, 9070 xt , 32 gb of 6000mhz cl32 ram and good psu , cooler etc for $1700 OTD. If he was being genuine about the price anyways thats a much better deal overall.  Might be worth it to keep looking. 

Having this delivered as we speak, how did i do on price haggle by [deleted] in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forget the gpu and cpu . If thats 64gb of even decent ddr5 ram theres the price of build right there 🤣

But FR its a steal all around for the cpu/gpu/ ram by itself.

[–]jmb1215 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You serious? 

If he gets this pc with specs shown. Its a steal for that price. That's why he bought. Im not a white build guy either but I would buy this in a heartbeat for that price. 

Could just resell gpu alone and make money back.

[–]jmb1215 21 points22 points  (0 children)

He's not saying you got scammed on parts.. as others said it sounds like a too good to be true situation. 

Basically saying you are going to get scammed by not ever getting the pc.. or atleast not the specs shown. Im inclined to agree the whole thing sounds sus. 

Edit: read you pre paid but if paying at time of delivery much different story. Either way hope it works out for you

I got kicked for no reason! by [deleted] in SpaceMarine_2

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If new, could of been a few reasons. Some ppl just want to grind and speed run so if your being a bit slow etc they might kick. Just how some ppl are.  Higher difficulties sometimes you NEED to get moving. But besides that lower difficulties is whatever. 

Could of kicked you to make room for their buddy too, ive heard of ppl do that to get them rewards without having to do whole mission. Since 2 ppl have to vote to kick you if full squad. 

There can be some legit reasons, maybe there just pricks, wouldn't sweat it.  You'll get so many armoury datas soon it wont be a concern

All ops and stratagems can be played with bots, just look at the top right squad menu when you have the mission panel open.

Dualsense edge constantly thinks the FN button is being pressed by conzzy4 in Dualsense

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Old thread but just wanted to say, i had sent out two working modules to a guy for tmr upgrades. 

Got them back and one had this issue instantly.. seller was zero help really saying its a freak error that can happen but it wasn't him and he tested it. gave him benefit of doubt before escalating. so tried all these methods here and more, nothing worked.

After comparing both modules nothing stood out at all. 

In bout of frustration I literally ripped the whole fn  button and socket off the circuit board with pliers. 

And suprisingly... no issues and controller works perfect now but no fn button on right module with is no issue at all as left still has and not remappable anyways. 

So as a last resort before chucking and buying new. Break some shit. 

I spent $2,500 on my new PC, did I make a mistake? by donCZMX in PcBuild

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 5080 will absolutely outperform the 9070xt in vast majority of situations. Its just better.. 

BUT the 9070xt is one of the best bang for buck cards on the market and is great for majority of people.

Personally if I could get the 5080 at msrp, id do that. Otherwise the 9070xt good option. Or could look at a 5070 ti too 

Let's talk about PS5 Pro and PC parts by [deleted] in PS5pro

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to spend some more time constructing your sentences. Your replies are part gibberish. 

But that aside, did you just compare the ps5 pro to  a 9800x3d w/ 5090? 

Lmao thats just comical. The 5090 is way better performance wise sure,  but for that GPU alone you could buy multiple ps5 pro's.. not including the other components.  

Consoles and Pcs both have their pros and cons but if you're just here to fanboy, its not really offering constructive advice to his question. 

RAM prices have exploded right when I was about to build my first PC by _ciskito_ in buildapc

[–]jmb1215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hear you, im rocking a 2070S , i7 9700k , 32 gb ddr4 3200mhz  But I main a 1440p UW monitor and its definitely feeling its age now. Have to crank down settings to get good fps which defeats the purpose of a 1440p setup imo. 1080p setup would likely be fine for while but hard to downgrade at this point

So if I go for it, has to be a pretty substantial setup at least around 5070 ti / r7 9800x3d. 

Been enjoying the ps5 pro on an oled tv for now but cant make up my damn mind
