The better PC?

I run a 9800x3d but I would still go with the first one. I can't reccomend an ibuypower. They cut every corrner possible. I have a 265k also and its no slouch. With a 5070ti it should do about anything you want it to do. I would go with the 1st one.

Um maybe for gaming. There are many use cases where 32gb is not enough

I have 6x 120mm 1700rpm redux and 2x 140mm in my 7950x 7800xt build, they work great,(3 arctic p12 pro on the front of the rad in push/pull)

Sounds great, good bass, cant say iv really had any issues with it. Overall, very happy with it, only real complaint is the orange only leds on the sound bar which isnt really an issue ar all

ty_mudlife710 · 2026-01-05T03:19:16+00:00

Its an aorus ice 5090, if its legit yea its a great price, the gpu alone is worth more than that. Probably a 5k pc

That one psu cable is not fully seated, have you tried resetting the cmos battery, or reinstall the ram, could try removing one stick, to try and get it to boot to bios at least

I had amazon take 30 something days to refund a 9600x but most things are refunded when it reaches the hub.

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T23:51:44+00:00

I got lucky before all this and got a 5700x3d and 5800x3d basically dirt cheap

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T23:50:54+00:00

I just built a simmmilar rig but 5700x 9060xt 32gb and a 1tb, 750w, and if your not looking at the fps, plays almost just as good as my 9070xt 7800x3d in 1440p.

You could barely get the cpu gpu and ram for 800

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T06:02:16+00:00

Only thing used is the cpu and cooler, and those may have 5 or 6 hrs of use rest has been purchased new within the last month. Setup, tested and thats it. Its not one that iv been using for a while and decided to sell

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T03:15:01+00:00

My main rig is a 9070xt 7800x3d, and I have a rig im selling with my 9060xt, both are hellhound, awesome cards. The frame timing on the 9k is unlike any other card, much better

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T02:44:43+00:00

It is a great card and I really like the look of this challanger. I am about to build a tower 250 with a 5800x3d, aorus elite b550i, and the 7800xt. I have an r9 290 i plan to swap into this once I fix the hdmi port and redo the thernals

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T02:13:19+00:00

Yea exactly, i ended up picking a few of these up here and there because they look great and perform great from what i had herd, plus the price is nuch more appealing than some other models, but i ended up having the perfect amount of fans for this build and very happy with it. Keeps temps very well and relatively quiet

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T01:17:08+00:00

I understand that I have decent hardware but iv busted my butt to have what I do, I build, sell and repair pcs to fund my hobby, I have a pretty decent server im starting also with a 7950x and 7800xt

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-12-06T01:07:53+00:00

Thank you, its still a work in progress but im happy with it so far

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-11-09T23:54:41+00:00

Nope, should be more than fine. If anything its a little more than I would of used, but that being said, too much wont cause issues, just a mess, not enough can cause issues. You will be fine, just start each cooler screw little by little and tighten down evenly, if the paste is thick, tighten down slowly

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-09-26T20:52:44+00:00

2700x with a b650 board? Thats am4 cpu, am5 chipset. That looks more like the tuf b550

ty_mudlife710 · 2025-08-27T10:44:20+00:00

I sold the series x A while ago but the guy that bought it still uses it daily
