    Potential new build review please

    Are you suggesting the PSU because you suspect my existing is not powerful enough to run that GPU? Or just 'cause? Also, we don't need any storage, going to keep the current drives.

    Ambient lighting (back of monitor) recommendations

    Apologies if this is the wrong palce for this question. (But I really couldn't figure out where it might go..) Anyway, I'm looking to set up some LED lights on the back of my monitor that automatically change with the ambient changes on the screen. Corsiar iCue, NZXT Hue2 or something...

    Tomahawk B350 - Ez Dedug code(s)

    Built about 2 years ago, was running fine last night. The RAM light never goes on.

    Tomahawk B350 - Ez Dedug code(s)

    My daughter's machine will not boot, there are no beeps from the mobo but all the fans are working and I can hear the power in the various drives. The EZ Debug LED stops at the CPU light, but then, at the same time it flashes off and the VGA and BOOT lights flash on. This sequence repeats...

    Noise issue? Or normal?

    It's not electrical. Definately vibration as I can make it stop if I touch hold the PSU tight to case, and it doesn't take much at that.

    Noise issue? Or normal?

    So it appears that the annoying noise is from the PSU and how it sits or is secured to the case. Any tips or tricks to limit the vibration transfer?

    Noise issue? Or normal?

    Is there a windows utility that show BIOS like information? fan speed, cpu temp, gpu temp, etc? Edit: let me google that for you... MSI Afterburner, GPU-Z. Which do you prefer, or it doen't really matter as I'm not overclocking?

    Noise issue? Or normal?

    Is that normal though? My old build did not do that.

    Noise issue? Or normal?

    Just finished a new build (first one in mnay years) and everything is working great...I think/hope. Except I am wondering if its makes too much, or the wrong kind of noise. Here is the build: AMD Ryzen 5 2600x 3.6GHz Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite Motherboard EVGA SuperNova 650G1+ Gold PSU MSI...

    Update So I did pick up this video card. https://www.memoryexpress.com/Products/MX69154 Now I'm trying to figure out a mother board. What should I be looking at/for when I am perusing the selection? And (as Memory Express seems to be trying their hardest to become the Consumer's...

    This is all good stuff. Thanks. Memory Express has this card: Radeon RX 570 Gaming 4GB PCI-E w/ DVI, HDMI, Triple DP on sale for $180. They are claiming it's "$220 off" but I'm not sure I really believe that. What do yous all think?

    New build thoughts, especially on the video card?

    Another SSD question... do they mount like a standard HDD? I.e. do I need a new case as the one I was going to use pre-dates SSDs.
  18. RainMaker

    New build thoughts, especially on the video card?

    Kind of a dumb question then...what do you load on the SSD? Windows? Games? And then use your HDD for storage of photos, music, etc? Or to put it another way, do you run out space on the SSD?

    New build thoughts, especially on the video card?

    On the PSU. My machine runs almost constantly (torrents) so I am interested in a PSU thar claims 'energy efficiency' or the like. Thoughts? Like, is there such a thing? I'm also wondering...do I really need a SSD? This is new since my last build.

    New build thoughts, especially on the video card?

    1. What YOUR PC will be used for. Gaming (but not super serious, I just like to have fun), web browsing, Illustrator, Photoshop, spreadsheets. 2. What YOUR budget is: -$800 - $1000 (inlcuding tax) 3. What country -Canada 4. IF YOU have a brand preference. -I'm partial to NVidia...
