    Question Just started building my pc and running into issues.

    Alright, I can try that and then if not, I’ll just replace the cpu. I ordered it through Amazon so I can return all the way up until the end of this month so I’ll be fine.

    Question Just started building my pc and running into issues.

    Alright, so take everything out including the mobo and put it back together to rule out that possibility? And otherwise, likely a bad CPU?

    Question Just started building my pc and running into issues.

    I’m thinking that may be the case, it’s the Intel pinless so it’s just completely flat and it’s got pins on the mobo so I can’t have bent pins unless I mess up really bad somehow. But it’s definitely seated all the way, I matched the triangles up at the one respective corner, then there’s these...

    Question Just started building my pc and running into issues.

    So, no, I don’t currently have storage installed. I was attempting to just boot into BIOS and just make sure I plugged everything in right. I did not reapply thermal paste, I had read somewhere that I didn’t really need to if I was just making sure everything was seated properly, the cooler...

    Question Just started building my pc and running into issues.

    PCPartPicker Part List EDIT: In addition there will be another storage device, at the current moment all that is installed is the cpu, the cooler, the mobo, the 2 sticks of ram, the graphics card, the power supply, and 1 case fan. I used an additional 3 pack to show that there is another fan...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    Ah, sweet, okay. I can take a few fans out, that saves some cost, so that’s nice. I’m thinking I’m going to top or front mount my cooler, then 3 fans on either top or front depending on where cooler is, then 1 on rear and 2 on the side because I want the extra controller that comes with the 3...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    Okay, that gives me a better idea of what I need to do then. So basically, rear fan is exhaust only, 2 sticks of ram instead of 4, and 10 fans is a bit overkill.

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    Okay, should only the rear fan be an exhaust?

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    lol, Thanks man. How many fans do you think would be enough to help with the heat from the 3070 Ti and the 17-13700K assuming I’m probably only going to overclock them around 10-15%. 13700K I’m aware is capable of more, but I also don’t know how to over clock the best but on my current pc I...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    Ahh, alrighty then. I’ve only purchased the gpu, case, mobo, and cpu so far. I’m thinking I’m going to use the pwm repeater on 6 of the fans to allow the last 4 slots on the commander to be used for the other fans. I think that’s the only way I can do it. But that was another question was the...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    So the thing is with that, is that I’ll only have the Commander Core that comes with the H150i cooler and it doesn’t have all the same connections, although that does help a bit, but from what I read, I think I have to connect the 3 fans from the Cooler to the core as well which complicates...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    Oh, I’m not sure if I could do that on the build unless I attach the radiator to the front panel instead of the side. The clearance looks a little tight for even radiator plus the one set of fans on the side there. That is if I do the push pull. If I do the top mount, I’ll probably do push...

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    I was really only going the 4 because I thought it would be better for the RAM having the usage spread across 4 instead of 2.

    Oh, okay then. That changes things

    Question Building my first pc and running into issues

    I was figuring 4x16 would be less stress on the ram, and better speeds but would 2x32 be better over the 4x16? And for resolution, temporarily I will be using a 144hz 1920x1080 monitor. But eventually I want to switch to 165hz 3440x1440. But yes, it is a pc for gaming
