With current PPD, we could calculate which cards would be best ppd/$

I know six 1070's would get you 4M to 5M PPD without a huge power draw and decent output.

1070 go used for like $200 to $250 CAD.

for CBR20, they need at least 1250 points per two hyperthreaded cores (per 2c/4T) stock on a K series chip if they want to keep their crown.

 

I must be misunderstanding the bench scores in the article as it looks like they are miles away from that ?

don't forget, these are early ES samples and not a K series chip. So you can at least expect this specific chip 200MHz above what it is on this video and the K series chip quite a bit more than that. It might not even be boosting properly for all we know currently.

My two builds were da bes.

Hey guys, this is one of my builds for CES this year, both for Aorus, but here's the first one

Thermaltake View 71 Modded (Removed parts, cable tucked, painted window, some vinyl work, shaved front I/O, etc.)

Thermaltake 1200W ARGB

32GB Ram RGB Aorus

RTX 2080 Super Aorus Xtreme Waterblock

SSD Aorus 1TB PCIE 4.0, NVME (Copper heatsink model, de-heatsinked)

Thermaltake watercooling with PETG 16/12 and CPU/GPU in parallel

CableMod power and power LED along with PCIE screws

Fans are 140mm Riing Trio

TR3 won't be on X399, I can confirm this right off the bat, but can't really say anything more.

@Duality92 Nice, is hydro dipping/plastidipping an expensive mod to undertake ? I assume you bought the kit and did it at home ?

This is literally just water, in a bucket, with spray paint on top and dipped the thing right in it.

I've long wondering if I should get one of these. I'll soon have a spare core 2 quad rig with 4GB DDR2, so I figure that'd be enough right?

I'd have like up to 10 wired connections total.

I did a few modding experiences lately, namely plastidipping a motherboard along with paint hydro dipping, I wanted to gain knowledge regarding these two modding techniques. I say both went VERY well! The only downside, is that I'm not sure where or how, but the motherboard LEDs do not work anymore appart from the I/O shield which stays purple. I'll eventually be tearing the whole thing down again and reassembling the motherboard to make sure everything is connected as it should.

Anyways, I learned a lot on this project and I think the results are still quite good! I had to mod this InWin USA 103 to fit an Alphacool English UT60 360 in Push/Pull! (110mm total thickness!). There was a bracket up top which needed a lot of trimming since it holds both the dual hard drive bay along with the I/O ports so I could not just remove it!

Intel i9 9900K

AORUS Z390 Xtreme

TeamGroup Dark Z 3200 MHz

GIGABYTE RTX 2070 Super OC

Seasonic Prime Ultra Titanium 850W

CableMod Custom Pro ModMesh cables

Alphacool Watercooling all around (except water block)

Watercool HeatKiller Acetal Nicklet waterblock

Apacer Global Z280 256GB NVME SSD

Oh bummer, so faulty CPU ? Possibly a reseat ? I know it been known that 1 poor contact in the wrong place can cause mem issues.

I've tried 2-3 mounts already, exactly same result, this is a cheap ebay ES sample. It has other issues too like not saving ANYTHING in the BIOS relating to it.

This CPU doesn't have that slot working properly

Gieb premium and staff.

Should have something soon for you guys!

Wewt

I drive a 1.8L Cruze

At least its manual.

Well, I haven't spent a cent on this build appart from the case. #sponsoredlyfe

Looking forward to the pictures there friendo. What's this PC going to be used for? I noticed the hardware is quite a bit better than typical gaming PC hardware.

Basically it's mainly for gaming, but there will be a lot of photography work being done on it also.

I also have a 9900k/2070 super build coming.

Hi everyone, well today I bring you the start of my build log. I'm already using the machine, but while I wait for the custom cables from CableMod, I figured I could give you a few updates.

This project is made possible with the generous help from Seasonic with their 1300W Prime Platinum PSU along with a 650W Prime Snow Silent Platinum for a total of 2150W potential power! EKWB has supplied Waterblocks for the CPU and GPU along with fans, radiator and pump (They had sent a reservoir too, but I'll be using a Watercool heatkiller taller reservoir). CableMod will be supplying all the cables for this build, which, basically it two sets, since this motherboard has four 8-pin EPS, two 24-pin, two 6-pin and a dual 8-pin bridge cable for the GPU.

Now, last, but certainly not least, AORUS, they're sponsoring this build with two 256GB NVME SSDs, three 16GB RGB DDR4 RAM kits (for 12 sticks total since they have 2 dummy sticks each), an AORUS RTX 2080 Xtreme AND the majestic Aorus C621 Xtreme motherboard.

Now, I'll be using a Xeon Gold 5218 ES CPU until I can get my hands on a W3175X.

Keep an eye out for a future update for pictures and detailed specification list of all parts!

Personally, I had Spotswood make me a custom case, I still have it, it's the only case out of the almost 50 I've owned in the last three years that I've kept!

Wonder if I can do this with my shield tablet

How's the performance versus others? Also, are they ffflllaaattttt?

Hey! Happy to see you here!
