froggy8 Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 i have only upgraded mine 2 years ago but i really wouldnt mind doing another build, maybe AMD? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Stormbringer Posted January 28 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 28 It was Yrkoon that speced it up for me Whether you go Intel or AMD it may depend on what you can reuse from old system into new Yrkoon and i do tend to favour AMD over Intel tho and do think at times AMD offer more bang for the buck 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yrkoon Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 (edited) we started to build it earlier and the last of the parts should be here tomorrow 🙂 heres a pic of his old one, the case was about 30 quid and is extremely old now for the shiny new one 🙂 woot motherboard and cpu installed ryzen 7000x and the corsair vengeance 6000 is installed too. woot heatsink installed, thats the easiest heat sink install ever as am5 boards seem to have the back bracket already installed as stock . the start of the annoying fiddly wires for motherboard headers 😛 yay im nearly as excited as him lol Edited January 31 by Yrkoon 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted January 31 Author Share Posted January 31 must admit to fair bit head scratching for the header wires tho as it didnt bear much resemblance to MB diagrams lol guess we will find out when when we power up when rest bits arrive morrow just hope it doesnt go phfart when powered up gulp 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormbringer Posted February 1 Author Share Posted February 1 IT LIVES !!!!! well it powered up lol Theres no operating system on it yet and the fans didnt light up so need to check that probably an rgb not connected 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 2 Author Share Posted February 2 well folks thats the new pc up and running and got the rgb fans working the rgb conecctors were tucked away in case and i didnt see them till i dug a bit deeper anyway heres a a wee vid of it running DCs world and Yrkoon was gobsmacked at how quick that loaded 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yrkoon Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 looks awesome dad, just glad its all up and running with memory on expo profile 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yrkoon Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) woot it survived prime 95 on both cpu and memory 🙂 am5 chips will get hot as hell like 95c per core, dads one kepts consistant boost speeds on that and no game will ever make a cpu work like that 🙂 https://www.pcgamesn.com/amd/ryzen-7000-temperatures my am4 chip worries me if it hits 65 i have a am4 5700x with tdp of 65 the same as my old 3600, am4 has served me well but im getting tempted with dads new one 🙂 Edited February 3 by Yrkoon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yrkoon Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 (edited) i need a new case as this one has seen 2 mother boards and 3 cpu's and 4 graphics cards, wonder if i should go to am5 as well , i have a 5700x ryzen with a 65 watt tdp 🙂 Edited February 3 by Yrkoon 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 Well Yrkoon couldnt keep from pressing buttons on it last night (theres a colour and mode buttons on case) he changed the light settings lol To be fair the way it works now is even better so a new vid of it below 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormbringer Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 Well last weekend had major problems with it It worked fine on desktop and running games but i couldnt clear notifications or when i accessed system settings i couldnt click on system update and other settings messed about with it and even reformated all the drives lol and it still did it 2-3 days of trying things achieved nothing Any way i disconnected all usb's apart from keyboard and mouse and it worked properly then reconnected usb devices and when i conected my x52 hotas stick it went pear shaped all that agro and stress cos the joystick had some buttons pressed whilst it was on floor beside the comp once stick moved and no buttons pressed its working great now lol Its even faster now as well and everythings running really well on it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
