Copy that gentlemen THANK YOU

Sorry... One more boomer question from me. Dwelling on your observation about noise... what if I got one of these liquid series things? Wouldn't that be quieter? Or is that all hype? This is what I've built: Case CORSAIR 7000D BLACK TEMPERED GLASS FULL TOWER CASE Custom Liquid Cooling Kit...

Dude this is how much of a boomer I am... I've been refreshing my last comment to see your reply and only just realized I was on page 1/2. I'm ordering this. THANK YOU. If you have a wishlist where you accept gifts or something send me link brother

Dude I'm loving what you built here. RE the drives, I think you are right. These will be sufficient -- and much safer now you've explained ^^ My only question is cooling. Is there any reason not to get the very best liquid cooler? And the upgraded thermal paste? I am more than 1k under my...

I brought down the RAM as you suggested, hadn't realized more RAM affected performance but I could see how that would be true Yes I have conceded to the slower delivery to try and get this case... your argument for it as the quietest (because best airflow) combined with it being plain, is just...

You were correct, it was a bug -- this is the system I am at now: Case CORSAIR 5000D AIRFLOW TEMPERED GLASS GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i9 24-Core Processor i9-13900K (3.0GHz) 36MB Cache Motherboard ASUS® ROG MAXIMUS Z790 HERO (DDR5, LGA1700, USB 3.2, PCIe 5.0) - ARGB Ready Memory...

Dude appreciate this many thanks. The storage problem is that I need to store multiple game projects which, with the pipeline we have, is going to run to 1.5TB per project. I will also need an asset library on the drive (not online) to bring things in and out of game projects. I have...

I wound up going for this (to make it agree everything fits in the case): Case HYTE Y60 MID-TOWER PANORAMIC CASE Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i9 24-Core Processor i9-13900K (3.0GHz) 36MB Cache Motherboard GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS MASTER (LGA1700, DDR5, USB 3.2, PCIe 5.0, WIFI6E) - ARGB Ready Memory...

My dude, eternal gratitude. I am a bit lazy for the send your case option, and want this machine ASAP also (please don't judge me ^^). I also think I will need the extra RAM because of the enormous copy-paste operations and multiple windows I'll need to run. So I went for a build using...

BTW point taken on the hard drive, I had no idea this increased the chance of data loss (!)

Dude... First you save me from wasting 5k on a totally inappropriate motherboard... now you are improving my build. THANK YOU. Since you have been so generous, I cannot resist asking again for your insight -- what case would you suggest? I am not worried about budget inside 6k, but I do like...

How does this look? Case CORSAIR iCUE 5000T RGB MID TOWER GAMING CASE Processor (CPU) Intel® Core™ i9 24-Core Processor i9-13900K (3.0GHz) 36MB Cache Motherboard GIGABYTE Z790 AORUS MASTER (LGA1700, DDR5, USB 3.2, PCIe 5.0, WIFI6E) - ARGB Ready Memory (RAM) 128GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR5 4800MHz...

First off, let me thank you guys for all this free and quick advice. I am kind of amazed that you know more than the person I spoke to on webchat, who told me the warning on that motherboard was just a bug. I am going to have a go at a build using the base you both suggest... although if you...

My budget is under 6k. My need is high end game design. X299 is the motherboard? How do I get access to a decent motherboard?! These are the only options it is giving me:
