I want to do a cheap, low-power, ECC server build. Ryzen seems like the best option. (Also I find PSP less scary than ME) >mobo Most likely asrock since they have official ECC support, curious how much lower the power consumption is on an ITX board compared to mATX. I don't have much experience with modern components. >CPU Which ryzens are low power? 4c is enough.
I'm hopintg the itx versions will have space for AIO coolers without the tubing pushing on the ram
Parker Evans
itx will be B650 only because X670 is twin chipset and there's no room.
Connor Rivera
Well that, same statement. I wanna get an EK on a b650i

hey I have two 1080 75hz screens and I want to add 1440 144hz into the mix(put it in the centre) will the difference fuck my eyes up? I don't have enough cash to get two 1440's

More early OP spam from a biased individual who needs to cheat because he has no argument. This OP was posted before the bump limit of 310 because he needs to include lines like
>Gaming: R5 5600/X, i5 12400/F+cooler
in an attempt to make LGA1700 seem more expensive. As noted many, many times before, the RM1 (Intel box cooler) and the Wraith Stealth (AMD box cooler) are both good for gaming and occasional all core workloads but bad for sustained all core workoads like video editing.
If the RM1 can almost get full multicore perf out of a 125W power unlocked i7 12700, then there's no way it has any problems with a 65W CPU under gaming workloads, as proven many times. youtu.be/2J0iP520WoY?t=758 youtu.be/yhKBABCfmpk?t=260
OP is a joke; do not take any of its recommendations seriously.
no but things can get screwy with multiple refresh rates, especially if you have something fullscreen on one of em
Nolan Nguyen
my usual use case right now is fullscreen whatever game / working application on main screen and browser/whatever explorer pigsty/rest of the working application on secondary(its angled slightly) I plan to do picture related
Anything you would change? Mostly for games but I'll be doing some media watching and production as well

I'm looking for a case that has up to 340mm of GPU clearance, a dark tint or solid side panel, with out the back compartment and PSU shroud you see on a lot of cases. I would prefer something with the normal ATX style lay out of PSU mounted on the top but bottom is fine as long as there's no shroud. Ive only found micro ATX cases and discontinued ones. I also want straight air flow. So front intake rear exhaust, bottom intake top exhaust. Suggestions? I really prefer how nicely managed cables look compared to hidden cables. I think computers like pic rel look way better than normal say nzxt h500 clone with armored mobo, GPU, aio. They will cover it in ugly plastic and shitty heatsinks sadly. I'm going to take the entire thing of armor and metal off my Asus board and install nice copper heatsinks from ali on it
I'd like to get a 12700(non-K), limit it to 65W and undervolt it for lower temperatures and noise. What DDR4 motherboard should I get? B660 or Z690? I also plan to use my Cl16-3000mhz 32gb DDR4 kit with it. It'd be nice for it to have wifi & bluetooth, but boards with this feature set are extremely expensive for some reason. Can/should I look for used models?
