In terms of noiselessness between the MSI Ventus 3060 x2 and the MSI Gaming X 3060 is there much difference?

Add the "MSI RTX 3060 VENTUS 2x" to the comparision

Looking at specification only both V1 and Core 500 don't seem that bad in terms of capacity, but I would need to check some reviews in terms of any surprises, restrictions possibly not shown in specifications or not working great in real life. Define cases just give you something extra and crucial ...

There's no problem to build tiny computer in cases you proposed, but in general building computer of such size is like doing everything to make this pc louder. E.g. tiny cooler = more noise needed to cool CPU; small GPU = more noise to cool it. Just final effect may not end up satisfying. I doubt b...

Unfortunately I know that a large case would be the ideal solution (once when I lived in the other house I had a Fractal Define 5 which at the time was recommended to me on this forum), but now due to space issues I can barely have a case the size of Thermaltake V1 or Fractal Core 500, even if the i...

HI! I would try to make a modern gaming build but also very, very quiet. I don't want to hear the PC when it's on (although I'll be using it about 8 feet away). The problem is that for reasons of space I would need to use a mini itx case. More specifically, I thought of putting the PC here: https://...

Hello everyone! Although maybe not the best time to do it, I would like to sell the ps4 and buy a new video card. Surely I will take a radeon rx 580 or 570. But I ask you: which brand currently offers the quietest card? I know that up to 60 ° fans are stopped in virtually all models, but while I pla...

I would like to ask you something else: in principle, even if I know that on an I5 8400 not overclocked there will not be much difference, among these 2 CPU cooler, what is the best as dissipation and noise? - Scythe Mugen 5 Rev.B - Be Quiet! Pure Rock (the normal version, NOT slim) In both idle (wh...

Thanks for the replyes! What exactly model of scythe should I buy? When the system is in idle state it will be inaudible? Asrock have it's own software for the fan management, I don't know if it's good like the asus Fan Expert. For the video card, case and power supply I have wrote in the future I w...

Hello everyone! In the next days I should assemble a PC with this configuration: - Case: Fractal Design R5 Black Window - Motherboard Asrock Z370 extreme4 - CPU: Intel I5 8400 - Ram: 2x8gb 3000Mhz Corsair - Power supply: Corsair RM650x - CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 33 - SSD: Intel 600p 500Gb M.2. - M...

Hello everyone! Please ask for advice on my next setup. The most important thing is that I DO Not WANT TO HEAR THE PC WHEN IT IS TURNED ON. Consequently, the choice of the various components must first of all take into account this. I AM NOT INTERESTED TO DO OVERCLOCK. I want to assemble a pc with t...

The four lines don't need to be thick, when the thing is mounted they each only need to be squeezed out to cover 1/4 of the base. Be very conservative with the amount of paste applied. It's a 2D picture. Those lines might be paper thin. ;) In the manual, the thermal paste on the heatsink is applied...

Since it's a naked heatpipe cooler they want the paste to be evenly spread on all the heatpipes. Rice grain in the middle will work I'm sure. But maybe performance will be slightly better if you follow the instructions. Ok, but if I apply the quantity shown in the drawing, is not it too much and is...

Hi, this weekend if all is okay, I should assemble a PC with an "Arctic Freezer 33" heatsink. However, reading the assembly instructions, they say that the thermal paste must be applied as described in the following drawing: https://s15.postimg.org/7xvzajw3f/Dissi.png ... But is not too massive so ?...

Purchased from Amazon.it
Tomorrow I will open an RMA.

I've switched from normal to eco with the PSU powered off.

Hello everyone! I just purchased this power supply: EVGA 650W Modular G2 Gold Plus My configuration is as follows: -Case: Fractal Design R5 Black -Mainboard: Gigabyte GA-AB350 Gaming 3 (Socket AM4) -CPU: AMD Ryzen 1700 (not overclocked) -CPU Cooler: Noctua NH D15 SE AM4 -Ram: 16GB DDR4 HyperX 2666Mh...

Hello!

My configuration is that:

CPU: Ryzen 1700
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-AB350 Gaming 3

I have to buy the ram. Actually I have at home that:

Corsair CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 Vengeance LPX (2x8GB)

I am not interested to overclock.

That ram will work fine with my motherboard and CPU?

I looked around but I could not find any comparative. Is there anyone who can tell me if the Ryzen 1700 (NO X) consumes more, less or equal to a Intel I7 7700 (NON K)?

Both have a 65W TDP.

I would be interested to know the result in idle and at play (eg Ghost recon Wildlands).

Thanks a lot!

Based on Noctua's statements it should be OK. And as you already have the cooler why not try it and see. But there might be an issue of whether the standard slimline 14mm high 92mm PWM fan will give a reasonable balance between CPU temperatures and fan noise. If this should prove to be the case it ...

I just bought that CPU cooler: Noctua NH L9x65 (the version of AM4 socket). http://noctua.at/en/nh-l9x65 Is that cooler ok for a Ryzen 1700 CPU? The case is a Fractal Design R5 And mostly: if I do not overclock that cooler will keep cpu temperature low and with low noise? Thanks a lot in advance!

Hello everyone! I finally assembled the new PC with the following configuration: CPU: Intel I7 7700 (NON K) Msi H270 Gaming M3 16 Gb RAM (8x8) DDR4 CL14 CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 33 Power Supply: Corsair RM650X Video Card: MSI Rx 480 8Gb X Gaming Case: Fractal Design R5 Black Window Now, my questio...

Hello everyone! I recently purchased a Seagate 2TB hard drives SSHD Firecuda. Unfortunately, the chipset of my motherboard (H270) does not support the "Intel Smart Response Technology", which from what I understand is used to optimize disk performance even for SSHD. But reading on the website of Sea...

Hello everyone! I would buy the houses "Fractal Design R5 Black". But they are undecided whether to take it with the window or closed. My setup is as follows: MSI Gaming M3 H270 Intel I7 7700 (NON K) MSI Radeon RX 480 8Gb Gaming CPU Cooler: Arctic Freezer 33 Power Supply: Corsair RM650X I know the v...

Thanks a lot for the replies!

I've selected the gigabyte z270 because have a AL12200 controller, other boards have the AL891.

The top for me would be GA-H270-HD3P, but I can't find it over the internet....

Hello everyone! I finally decided that I'm going to buy the configuration. I only ask the last opinion. Here are the components: Case: Fractal Dedsign R5 CPU: Intel I7 7700 (NON K, I am not interested to overclock) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z270X-UD3 Power Supply: Corsair RM650X Video Card: Gigabyte ...

Hello everyone!

For what we know now, a Ryzen processor power as compared to its counterpart Intel I7 7700 no K (which has a 65W TDP), consumes more or less energy?

Why the PSU should be oversized? In the end if my components consume (for example) to the maximum 250W at full load, the power supply will deliver 250W, the same thing will make even a 500W power supply, but a 650W will do "less work" and probably the fan will turn less quickly and consequently it w...

Grazie per le risposte (sono italiano anche io) Thanks for the answers!! I will proceed with the noctua, at this point I am a little undecided on the motherboard, because currently I have an Asus wanted to change brands. I want to switch to another brand because Asus have not released the utilities ...

Hello, I have another question before the definitive check out: Between these 3 CPU cooler, what is the most silent model? - Noctua NH-D15S - Cryorig H7 - Scythe Mugen 5 According the releative official sites, this is the specs: https://s23.postimg.org/boeycsrd3/Cryorig_H7.png Cryorig https://s23.po...

Welcome to SPCR. What are your applications? Something that can make use of the i7's hyperthreading? If gaming is the primary use, then get the i5 as games don't make good use of the i7's features...and the i5 runs cooler, hence quieter. cpu cooler: The Noctua NH-D15S is a fine cooler, but a little...
