Nothing until now, the laptop is still in repair shop

Yep, this is it. For me it was a no brainer to go with AMD this time building a new Desktop after this many years. AM5 checks every box instead of Intel this time: -new platform with 3 or more years of support instead of a dead end like lga1700. -blazing fast in multi core Programs that i need. -blazing fast in games, i mean next year i will get one of the 3dx cpus that will be enough for at least 4 5 years of gaming with a new gpu of course. - better efficency and power consumation, very important with the energy crysis in EU for me.

THX,im going crazy have everything except the most important piece, the PSU. I orderd a second one, an evga 1000W from Amzon with the guarantee for saturday delivery:D Wich one comes first its get inside the case 😆

Thx 👍. Its an extra piece of the case that you can change on top of the case so you can have the IO (usbs and audio jack) panel that is under the case on top

Yes Desktop is the way to go now for home use, laptops are to crap now.. Stupid limits and bga that u cannot repair now.. Only throw in the trash bin. A PC is way easier to maintain and upgrade for many years without much hassle.. Change the gpu every 2 3 years and your good to go. Case and some other small stuff arrived. Like a extra IO top kit for it. Love the o11 dynamic evo but lian li surely knows hot to make money out of it.. Every tiny bit of extra customization you need to pay😂😂 Just waiting for the PSU and ssd and i am good to go.

Yes i think im going to wait and use the 1660 until rdna 3, only if a very good deal will come ill bite. In other news i just ordered the main SSD😂. I went with the Kingston kc3000 2TB, looks like is one of the fastest ssd out there beating 980 pro and sn850. Price was 212 after rebate.

Nice brother, did you had time to play with the CPU RAM aswell? ECO mode, undervolt, OC and so on?😁

Yes i expect stock to normalize and prices to drop in 1 2 Months, maybe Christmas, until then NVIDIA will keep the stock of 4090 locked up until they sell he 3080 3090ti still in stock. Scalpers are also reducing the price to 200 400 more then normal price, a sign that the demand is shrinking

Yeah thats a good question. Timewise now i have little more time, in November comes the second Kid.. I was thinking if i can get the card under 600 E maybe in 2 months when RDNA 3 is there and the water settles i can sell it again with not much loss. The problem is if RDNA3 is expensive like 4090, over 2k ill not pay that much. Budget for the card is like 1,3-1,4k E maybe.

Try to lap the CPU and/or get the Bartx IHS for that 9900k if you dont have it yet. It really makes a difference.

Haha i wish was Christmas, then all the pieces were presents and i didnt need to pay out of my pocket 😂. I hope the case is here tomorrow or latest Friday, coming from Denmark, really hard to find the dynamic evo in white. Amazon will get it back in stock in 1 to 2 months. Sadly PSU is onöy on Saturday here. So maybe ill get it up on Sunday

Well this is encouraging, hope is somewhat true. https://wccftech.com/amd-rdna-3-radeon-rx-7000-gpu-rumors-2x-raster-over-2x-rt-performance-amazing-tbp-aib-testing/

Haha yes had all the pieces in my head already just needed to find some bargains for them. For sure i forgot some small stuff but it will come when the bulk is there. I am in a dilemma right now..i found a cheap used Gigabyte 3080 Vision 10g around 600 euros, should i get it and thus complete my white build with a card that still is relevant instead of the 1660?Just bridge the time until rdna 3 release or just wait..if the rumors are true rdna will come only in December 😅

More goodies arrived. Still waiting for the case ans psu.. Hopefully they will come until the weekend. No more patience 😁

Haha, well i need to hide and build everything when my son is not in the house or sleeping if not hes going to think the cpu is a duplo piece😂. A very expensive one

Oh man think is the best looking 4090 out there and like always hard to get😂

Some of the stuff arrived😃

OK, so i couldn't wait anymore 😅 . The downfall of my Clevo, still in the repair shop, pushed me quicker over the edge and i started to order my hardware for a new Desktop after 13 years if i remember correctly. 😄. It will be a work in progress over many months, i was aiming for the build after the RNDA 3 launch and after the birth of my second son. But the itch is there and cannot be ignored anymore so here it is: Case: Lian Li O11 Evo Dynamic White+Mesh Panel - i really like the Case, lot of customization possible, but you need to pay for every bit 😅. Good airflow, the inverse build option also really interesting for me because of the placement of the case on the left side, also if i will do a custom loop its adequate. And also not that big. I dont have a lot of space on my small desk. Price: 195 Euro+2o Euro mesh panel..really Lian Li.. Mainboard: i went with the Asus Strix B650-A Wifi - i went with it because is one of the few White Boards, i need white because of the white build that i am aiming for. Also the other good white x670 options are in my opinion to expensive for what they offer, the strix x670 and the Asrock taichi. Like i said, this is a build that will take some time, maybe until the CPUS that i am aiming for are here: the AM5 x3d chips so for sure the mainboard will be replaced in the future when more white options are available. Price: 248 Euro after i had some Amazon points 😅. CPU and RAM: AMD 7900x with 32 Kingston Fury Beast 4800 CL38: ok here i got a little lucky and i got a new CPU with the ram in a package for 600 EURO. I know the ram is not the best but it came for free with the CPU so for the start it will do, it will be only for starting the rig and will try to overclock the shit out of it and when ill find a good price for the 6000-6400 Trident Z in white i will sell it. AIO: Lian Li Galahad 360mm SL V2 white - very good AIO from all the reviews and also one of the few good looking in white. SSD: I will take the 2xSamsung SSD 970 Evo from the Clevo and for the main SSD probably ill get a 2TB: the Firecuda or something similar, still open on this. PSU: Corsair RM1000x 1000W 80+ Gold - not much to tell, one of the best 1000w on the market also got a discount on it. Price 150 Euro. GPU: well here ill wait until RDNA 3 comes up or i can get an ARC770 just for the fun of testing it. Until then the place will be occupied by an EVGA 1660 Super SC Ultra Gaming, jeez what a long name 🤣. Monitor: already here and used with the Clevo: the big boi Samsung 49 Odyssey G9 Neo Keboard and Mouse: also already here: Razer Pro Type and Pro Click in white. Really good looking stuff, but i have some mixed feelings for the keyboard.. its disconnecting a little to often out of thin air..Razer quality 😅 Small stuff like fans and the sort : Gonna go with the Lian Li 120 UN SL Fans and Lian Li RGB strimmers. ll update with photos when the stuff here is

Yes thats the plan ill wait for rdna 3 and then decide. Only if some miracle happens and ill find a 3090 for 500 euro ill bite😂😂😂. I was really thinking to buy an arc 770 and give iy a try test it and if its shit send it back.. But intel did only a paper launch.. Therr isnt any arc 750 770 to buy..

@jaybee83 yeah i saw the rog thor aswell but is expensive like hell, almost 150 Euro as the Corsair, that many could go to some 3x120 vents or some Lian Li Stimmers 😁. Also i still need to get a GFX right now if i build the PC it will rock an EVGA 1660 till RDNA shows up 🤣

Indeed it is. Its just about the perfection, you know, feeling better when everything white is😂😂. Little quirkys😅. But I'll live with a black one aswell 👍

Will do yes when the times comes. 👍

Guys i need your help a little, probably ill build my desktop in the near future, after +10 year only mobile, im a little out of touch 😁. What i know for sure is that the case will be Lian li O11 Evo dynamic and the CPU 7900x. What i need is help with choosing the PSU: Ideally i want a 1000w white one but didnt find any in EU or im to stupid 😄. Right now i have on the list RM1000x, EVGA G6 and Seasonic GX 1000. What should i choose for the future RDNA 3 or RTX4xxx. Or is another that i should get. Didnt find any atx 3.0 right now. Im leaning on the Corsair right now. LE: forgot about the be quiet Straight Power 11 1000w +80 platinium..any good?
