MeatAndPotatoes Posted March 20, 2023 Author Posted March 20, 2023 ^^^^ lmfao!! Thanks to all you guys again!! I cant really stress how fucking crazy tight the ram, and cpu power cables fit directly near the radiator. I did take a few pics of my system.

POS movie, but i stuck it out for her. Got done downloading video games now! And holy ffffffuck is this damn thing fucking so fast!! !! !! i need a new monitor.... and again to all yall!!

I was expecting something to go wrong, but it went smooth as butter, but then my daughter walked in, and stole the show. She's off to bed now so I'm about to ramp up. I can't believe how well all the pieces fit. It's amazing how easy it is to put together PC's today. (Other than RGB, RGB usually still requires a lot of cable management.) 1 Quote

MeatAndPotatoes Posted March 20, 2023 Author Posted March 20, 2023 pictures dont do it justice. I could maybe slide 3 sheets of paper in between the ram and the radiator before they touch. The cpu power cables gently press against it. ... Came out magical. Quote

I’ve heard good things about that monitor, I would also consider and compare it with these two: https://a.co/d/4m8V2T3 https://a.co/d/dGHzxHw (32”, though) 1 Quote

In that case, 50 - 60 inch OLED.. Price = $2,000ish at the most is what im looking for. Willing to wait, if there's something special coming out soon Quote

Willing to wait, if there's something special coming out soon I think most OLEDs right now would either make you go 4k or limit you to 27" (or 34" Ultrawide which is the same as 27" but... wider).

MeatAndPotatoes Posted March 22, 2023 Author Posted March 22, 2023 Oh no, If i make this a HTPC it would be 4k minimum I think probably just getting the nicest 1440p 32" monitor i can find would fit me best Quote

The 2 fans blowing outward are mounted on the radiator on the top. im looking at it, and it seems like if the fan in the back next to the I/0 shield was an exhale, it probably would not be doing much at all since its so close to those top fans, but if i use it as an intake, than that may give more air to the top exhaust to help cool the radiator. Im leaving my side and front panels off. Not only does this leave for extremely better airflow, but noise levels are still quiet and it all looks so sick like this imo Quote

It helps to pull the fresh air coming from the front so it gets to the radiator fans. Side panel should be on unless you want to fill up with dust Quote

Every day I just blow any dust off it. I use it all around my place every couple days too, takes a few minutes, and gets all the dust. Behind the tv, above pictures, in xorners that are hard to get. It's just free compressed air whenever you need it. I can't live without one. 1 Quote
MeatAndPotatoes Posted March 25, 2023 Author Posted March 25, 2023 Im using that back fan as exhaust. Playing PowerWash Simulator right now for the 1st time, ... of ALL the games that have ray-tracing(this one doesn't).... but it's very relaxing though!! I am looking for the best 32" (maybe 27) 1440p monitor I can get. I'm willing to spend. I don't want an ordinary IPS. I really want a display that has full-array backlighting atleast. It will be my baby. Wanna thank you guys for the help, i'd probably be rocking this 13700 on an expensive air-cooler. (i love this ID COOLER!!) I take lightly to youtube videos, i know you guys are better than that. Meaning i slightly trust youtube vids, but i know damn well, an educated person could help me a lot more with what im asking fo Quote

MeatAndPotatoes Posted March 29, 2023 Author Posted March 29, 2023 part of me wants to get a cheap ass 1440p monitor for $200 and wait for oleds to come out in variety and price, the other part is willing to spend 1k if it's worth it. Quote
MeatAndPotatoes Posted April 2, 2023 Author Posted April 2, 2023 Amazon.com WWW.AMAZON.COM Just bought that. Can't Wait! Until oleds come cheaper within the next few years, this will tide me over 1 Quote
MeatAndPotatoes Posted April 3, 2023 Author Posted April 3, 2023 should i sell my 3080 for $800 and spend $400 more for a 4080?

MeatAndPotatoes Posted April 3, 2023 Author Posted April 3, 2023 I know someone who would do a straight-up cash-buy. If I can, I'm probably gonna make the deal. But, if the 5080 comes out for under !k, i'd feel like a fool Quote

MeatAndPotatoes Posted April 5, 2023 Author Posted April 5, 2023 no, but i did just get finished setting up this monitor. so far, it's bright as fuck!

MeatAndPotatoes Posted April 5, 2023 Author Posted April 5, 2023 ok 1st game i tried was GTA 5. This was my 1st time ever playing in 1440p, (and with a huge ass monitor). I couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear at how smooth, detailed and beautiful everything was. Quote
cusideabelincoln Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 100% brightness will probably give you eye strain. Almost all modern displays can attain brightness way higher than you need for day-to-day desktop use. 50-75% will probably be the best value. While my monitor is completely different than yours, I have it set to 60% brightness and it's still super bright. Quote
Brick Posted April 8, 2023 Posted April 8, 2023 I'm finally installing that SSD @AbsolutSurgenfound for me (I'm a constant procrastinator), but I don't know which slot to install it in, the M2A or M2M slot, if it matters. Edit: Never mind I think that's just what the motherboard labels each port, so I just put the SSD in the top one. Quote
