Considering a Radeon 6800XT from Sapphire, specifically their Pulse model. It's $700 brand new. Should I be pairing this with a 5600X or 5800X?

Thoughts on this heatsink? I use it and like 3 corsair red led fans. Not sure how else to improve my cooling.

No idea what specific cooler that is, but it looks like MSI, and a huge gimmick. Just a fancy single tower cooler really. If it drops your temps reliably, you're good to go.

What's the easiest way to get into a PC that i forgot the password? I need a password to get into the command for Win10 and I'm seeing alot of apps a bunch of youtube videos shilling

How easy is non-destructive deshrouding on most GPUs? I'm thinking I'll probably pick up a basic 6700XT Pulse card and replace the fans with two A12x25 since I require a card that's relatively compact while performing similarly to 3x92mm fans models.

thoughts?

Do you have any ms account encrypted data? Private certificate storage, ms outlook databases etc? Also wrong thread.

Just stumbled across this offer. That's a good deal, right? I did something similar for my current AM4 build - bought a majorly discounted open box top end mainboard right when AM5 was speculated to be announced.

My bad, No I don't have any of those

Can anyone recommend a case where I can put a 3Slot wide PCIE card "standing" that has place for a 200MM Fan in front with a CD-ROM Drive bay?

Core frozor xl. I’ve had it for a while and it just works. But I just bought it because of the cool looks idk if it is any good compared to other coolers.

What drives should I get to fill out these slots in my case? I’ve had this massive thing for awhile and it feels like that room is going to waste.

use a search engine next time
"win 10 password reset github" is that so hard?

why get such a large case if you don't need the space? All the pics on Cougar's website show like 3/4 GPUs and what not. I mean you can get whatever SSDs/HDDs you can afford to fill it out, but why? If you don't need the storage, why bother?

Is your drive encrypted?

2.5" hard drives

Have any 2k 16:10 monitors hit the western markets yet? Or do I still have to import from Korea to get my preferred ratio?

entry level 2.5 hard drives to store books movies or low transfer speed files

5600x if you want to save a buck
5800x3d if want maximum fps

Is it true that they are more reliable than ssds
I do need the space for my eatx motherboard though and I am already running out of room on my name drives for movies and books.
Yes you can get any “high end” last gen motherboard like that for a great discount. Though you might want to compare it with the other z490 boards like the ones from gigabyte and asrock.

4000 announcement when?

i'm happy with my 3070 i'm just wondering how a july launch got delayed (it's cause of crypto dying isnt it)

>5800x3d if want maximum fps
I could only get the 5800X. The 5800X3D is a solid $450 to $550 now. At that point, I could just get a brand new 5900X for $370 flat. As is, I can get a regular 5800X for $280.

It's a bad deal really.10th gen liquidation was only competitive with Ryzen 3000 and 11th gen was a housefire

Can't get into the command line without password

you don't need it, did you even read the link?

has anyone EVER tested/benchmarked new Arc GPUs on Linux?

Just google "6700XT deshrouding" ?

I should learn to rely more on reddit
Thanks for the tip
