And I don't change this type HW. I keep it several years (the cost will be divided over many years). Same also for the cooling (only a WB swap if needed). All black, nice classic design and with enough space for everything. I worked in my sons new chassis in the christmas holidays. Mid tower and not even the smallest. But all too small box for my likings. You have to think on everything a good while if you want to do changes with your setup. Craamped space is awful. Iould like have a bench table for my hobby, but I hate the cleaning. With what I have now I just use the AC airduster 1 time each month. Taking out the 3 filters every week. Same for cleaning the glass panels. This take 5 min. I have a dog and they drag in a lot dust in the house. Soo there is that. My oldest son said to me before I started buy parts for my new pc.... There ain't other options for you old pa 🙂 But the chassis you have in the post is also very nice. qa big box the way it has to be. The only change I would do is the alu part. Paint it all black. Has to be black bro Fox "All Black" 🙂 Expand Yes, we agree on so many things. 🙂 Not the least of which is the preference for black everything. A few chrome fittings look nice with black though. I have learned the hard way that the black QD fittings stick because of the black finish. The nickel plated QD fittings are slippery and do not have the sticky valve issues. (The auto antifreeze has also helped with that issue, as it is a lubricant.) 3 WRAITH // Z790 Apex | 14900KS | 4090 Suprim X+Byksi Block | 48GB DDR5-8600 | Toughpower 1650W | MO-RA3 360 | Hailea HC-500A || O11D XL EVO (T-Rex) BANSHEE // X870E Carbon | 9950X | 4090 Gaming OC+Alphacool Block | 32GB DDR5-8200 | RM1200x SHIFT | XT45 1080 Nova || Antec C8 (Rhinoceros) SPECTRE // Z790i Edge | 13900KS | 3090 Ti FTW3 | 48GB DDR5-8200 | RM1000e | EK Nucleus CR360 Direct Die || Prime A21 (Rattlesnake) HALF-BREED // Precision 7720 | BGA CPU Filth | 32GB DDR4 | Quadro P5000 | 4K Display | Nothing to Write Home About (Turdbook) Mr. Fox YouTube Channel | Mr. Fox @ HWBOT The average response time for a 911 call is 10 minutes.

Enjoy, and please see the whole video🙂 Worth every second. 4070 Ti looks more as a old xx60 series card due castrated mem bus, LOOL Expand We kind of have a duopoly here and even without price fixing it can easily lead to higher prices. One company goes first and introduces at a relatively high price as it can still go lower if necessary (Nvidia) and then company number two follows and can easily set its price point to get a good share of the market while still making a bigger than usual profit. And yes, we need not consider Intel and Apple as they do not play a role for this type of market and its pricing. Of course it is not a life necessity to get the latest and greatest GPU so the customer has some power and he can exercise it by not buying which to a degree seems to have happened with the 4080 which still should cost triple digits and not more but people will probably start buying sooner and if they do one could argue that Nvidia has found the correct price point. The 4090 has a justified price imo - it is an extreme card at an extreme price but it delivers and it is the 4080 that is out of line as the second tier used to be the value for money card. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My theory is just as Alienware doesn't want people to use fast eGPUs to extend the life of their systems, NVidia/AMD don't want gamers to run multi GPU setups. They would rather people buy hulking 4 slot 4090s at 2Gs a pop, which most gamers would find sufficient today, then upgrade to another, ideally 5-slot, gigaoffering again ASAP, as opposed to grabbing another card from the second-hand market (they are hating so much rigtt now) at a huge discount and be good to go for another couple of years. 6 "We're rushing towards a cliff, but the closer we get, the more scenic the views are." -- Max Tegmark AI: Major Emerging Existential Threat To Humanity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand AGA was a great concept and according to some users it still works with the 4090 connected to for example an Alienware 51m. You do not get 100% desktop level performance but a lot better performance than what will be possible with the upcoming mobile 4090. The problem for Alienware ist that one only needs a new card that doesn't even have to be purchased from them to increase the performance by a lot, we are talking about the Time Spy Exteme graphics score going from ca. 5000 to over 17000: https://www.3dmark.com/spy/31652567 Kind of makes the AW 51m with a 10900K a tempting proposition for 4k gaming with a laptop... 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tripple Expand Yeah 7800X3D is actually losing boost clock from 5.4GHz to 5GHz but unlike R9 processors which have reduced TDP, R7X3D chip gains 20W extra over 7700X which clocks higher. As for the R9, maybe they see if R9 12C and 16C SKUs gets dual CCD 3D stack it will either A - Destroy their own R9 existing Zen 4 lineup and pose a threat to Zen 5 itself (wild guess) or B - The clocks will be significantly reduced and give a negative scaling on the MT workloads. So AMD does not want to commit fully on the stacking technology and wants to be conservative. Why not just give the R9 CPUs dual cache stacks and made 170W to 200W. Maybe the heat output will be drastic and PPT will be too much and thus balancing out so giving the boost as is on R9 and cutting it a bit on R7. AMD also reduced 300MHz base clock on the X3D Chips too for all 3 processors, perhaps reduce the heat and maintain power draw is my guess (because non X CPUs are having lower TDP and lower base clock). So they do not want to exceed their AM5 socket PPT target beyond 250W+ because 7950X can go beyond 230W PPT to 250W and increasing it further means 300W, but AMD is going conservative. Look at Intel 450W lol. Granted to be honest Intel Base Clock is always lower side, 10900K is just 3.5GHz. And 13900K P core base is just 3GHz. AMD Zen 4 Base clocks were super high at 4.7GHz (7600X, 7900X) literally 10900K boost all core stock lol very fast Zen 4 on base. All in all it will be a mid range refresh, a small refresh for those who want to buy later into AM5 X670 platform. Intel Raptor Lake Refresh I think they may boost base and boost clocks altogether and call it a day. 7 Helios (WIP) i9 10900K // Trident Z Royal C16 4000MHz B-Die 32GB // ASUS Maximus XIII APEX // Noctua DH15 Chromax // RTX3090Ti FE // Alienware 360Hz G-Sync Ultimate IPS FHD // Seasonic Prime TX 1000 Titanium // Fractal Meshify 2XL Ethereal Ranger Alienware 17 R1 // i7 4710MQ // 16GB DDR3L 2133MHz // 980M 860M loaner // Windows 8.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcordero Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 On 1/4/2023 at 11:33 PM, Mr. Fox said: That is a totally loaded question. It really depends on what you want and what you intend to do with it. There is no single right answer. Gamers that don't care about overclocking buy things like an AMD X3D CPU, drop it in a gamer motherboard, run it stock or with an undervolt, then decide how much they want to spend on a GPU. As long as it plays the games they want to play at a decent framerate without overheating or throttling, they're good to go. This does not require the best and most expensive parts to do that well as long as they are healthy parts. The GPU is the most important component to that type of person, and they generally need less than what all of the marketing hype would suggest. If they buy a high end halo GPU like a 4090 today it should last them at least 4 or 5 years before it struggles with gameplay, longer if they don't expect to max out every available setting. If they go cheap on the GPU, they'll need to update the GPU (with something new or used) every year or two and keep using the rest of the system until a component fails and has to be replaced. Gaming doesn't require expensive CPUs, motherboard or bleeding edge memory. Fast storage and a mid-range GPU will get the job done. If you're an overclocker that love chasing numbers, there is still no single "right" answer. If you are always trying to beat yourself and set impressive scores, it is a never-ending pursuit of the cutting edge parts that you can push to the edge of functionality. If you are looking to set records for specific hardware, you can do that with old parts and collect hardware points. For example, if you grab a GTX 690 GPU and do hardware/firmware mods and go to great lengths to keep it freakishly cold and install that in a modern high end motherboard with a wicked CPU overclocked to the edge of functionality it will blow away all of the old high scores for a GTX 690 GPU. If you are a cutting edge hardware junky that craves the best of the best and feel compelled to stay current whether you actually use that hardware for something important, or not, just because that's what floats you boat, then you're just screwed... real bad. You're either filthy rich and blow money without a care in the world about it, or you're in bondage to an addiction that you can't afford. If you're in this last category there is nothing that will ever be good enough because nothing remains static. Today's most insanely expensive parts will be obsolete tomorrow and worth a small fraction of what you paid for it yesterday. Expand Thanks for detailed answer mate! I'm an overclocker that wants to chase after the highest scores. If you want to build a monster computer right now with no care for money, what would you look for in buying a motherboard and liquid cooling components and why?

I remember some other users on this forum described looking for VRMs. Expand EVGA Z790 Dark (first choice) or ASUS ROG Z790 Apex (second choice) or Z690 Unify-X (third choice). These are all 2-DIMM motherboards best suited for CPU and memory overclocking. They have the traces, phases and VRMs needed. The gamerboy motherboards are not suitable for it and will fall short. Avoid 4-DIMM motherboards if you care about memory overclocking. These products are designed to deliver the best for both CPU and RAM overclocking. From a QC, service and warranty perspective, ASUS is the least desirable option. Custom loop with (minimum) two 360MM radiators (or larger) internally mounted, but ideally with either an Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 1080MM Nova radiator or MORA-3 radiator mounted outside of the case with at least two D5 pumps. An AIO is convenient but restrictive and usually less effective. If you decide to take the easiest available path with an AIO, go with no less than 360MM and try to go with a modular option that can be upgraded and serviced more easily than one with sealed and fixed lines that are a one-size-fits-all solution. Fans in push/pull will help, so choose the case carefully or you won't have adequate space to configure fans that way. Most cases are simply too small and poorly thought out, so they do not have enough space above the motherboard, or they lack space for a big GPU if you install the radiator with push/pull fans mounted in the front panel, or they lack space in both places. An AIO works great if you live in an area that is cold and you can push freezing cold air through the AIO. If you live in a hot environment, the AIO will struggle because it is more easily influenced by ambient temps. OptimusPC Foundation or Aquacomputer Cuplex Kryos NEXT CPU block.

I have 10 of them on my benching rig and still pushing 260+ L/H. The slight impact is more than offset by the massive uplift in convenience. It would be a massive inconvenience to have to drain my system every time I wanted to mess with it, or switch over to chiller without radiator configuration. (Exactly why hard tubing is a massive "hell no" option for me.)

Why not just give the R9 CPUs dual cache stacks and made 170W to 200W. Maybe the heat output will be drastic and PPT will be too much and thus balancing out so giving the boost as is on R9 and cutting it a bit on R7. Expand Maybe AMD saw that their chips already run hot at todays TDP. Increase it won't do much. They are already running at peak at 95C On 12/30/2022 at 5:33 AM, Papusan said: Got the confirmation today. The refund have come from the MSI 4090 I sent back. Sent it in 18. Dec and it took 11 days. So all good. Now the hunt is started again after a new 4090. I returned my MSI 4090 liquid X. I really liked the card, but prefer air cooling for a fast swap between different cards (my hobby). What to select. Not much choices of 4090 here home. And FE is a no go. Hence I'll ask for 3 options you would vote for. Not so sure the Zotac boat is the design I want. But put it in if you feel to do that. The best cooling is important. Thanks. Expand On 12/30/2022 at 9:58 AM, electrosoft said: I mean will you extract maximum performance out of your 4090 at 1440p ? No, but it will lead the pack no problem. I'm all for going for the cheapest models since many still tend to clock up 2900+ but for the cards themselves, if price is no object at all I would go for: MSI Suprim X 4090 Asus Strix 4090 Asus TUF 4090 ZOTAC RTX 4090 AMP Extreme AIRO isn't a bad pick either. Expand Got a notice about MSI Suprim X 4090 is in stock from the same shop I returned my Suprim liquid X. Cheaper than the water cooled card as expected. Not sure if I should wait for a Asus ROG 4090 Strix OC Edition. I have never been happy with MSI. Have benched MSI cards before (up to 980 Sku) and they aren't the best oc'ers. I know its the lottery but still. And this also become true with my MSI Suprim 4090 Liquid X. So this is no coincidence I have had with MSI. A few shops have the 4090 trash-boat Edition but I'm not very keen get a boat in my "all Black" 1000D chassis😎 And on top they cost more. Asus sales page sucks equal bad as their forum. I expect one of the two is the White Edition. Can't see they offer two different SKUs of exactly same model with same color. If I check both to compare... The spinning wheel will never stop. But one of the two has to be the new White Edition Yep, 50 of the MSI 4090 Suprim X in stock. And the shop is flooded with the new 4070Ti cards. And the same for the heavly overpriced 4080. Edit. Does anyone have a great idea for what to buy if you go with PCI-E X16 Gen 5 Riser Cable + bracket? Want Gen 5 so I don't need to buy a new later.

These are all 2-DIMM motherboards best suited for CPU and memory overclocking. They have the traces, phases and VRMs needed. The gamerboy motherboards are not suitable for it and will fall short. Avoid 4-DIMM motherboards if you care about memory overclocking. These products are designed to deliver the best for both CPU and RAM overclocking. From a QC, service and warranty perspective, ASUS is the least desirable option. Custom loop with (minimum) two 360MM radiators (or larger) internally mounted, but ideally with either an Alphacool NexXxoS XT45 1080MM Nova radiator or MORA-3 radiator mounted outside of the case with at least two D5 pumps. An AIO is convenient but restrictive and usually less effective. If you decide to take the easiest available path with an AIO, go with no less than 360MM and try to go with a modular option that can be upgraded and serviced more easily than one with sealed and fixed lines that are a one-size-fits-all solution. Fans in push/pull will help, so choose the case carefully or you won't have adequate space to configure fans that way. Most cases are simply too small and poorly thought out, so they do not have enough space above the motherboard, or they lack space for a big GPU if you install the radiator with push/pull fans mounted in the front panel, or they lack space in both places. An AIO works great if you live in an area that is cold and you can push freezing cold air through the AIO. If you live in a hot environment, the AIO will struggle because it is more easily influenced by ambient temps. OptimusPC Foundation or Aquacomputer Cuplex Kryos NEXT CPU block. (Obviously not applicable if you go the AIO route for cooling.) Minimally. I have 10 of them on my benching rig and still pushing 260+ L/H. The slight impact is more than offset by the massive uplift in convenience. It would be a massive inconvenience to have to drain my system every time I wanted to mess with it, or switch over to chiller without radiator configuration. (Exactly why hard tubing is a massive "hell no" option for me.) What takes only seconds turns into an inconvenient project without the QDC fittings. Expand That makes so much sense, so you look for traces, phases and VRMs in a motherboard first and foremost. What would you look for in buying RAM, SSDs, and CPUs (more cores vs high Ghz, servers vs consumer CPUs)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
