Always state the purpose of your PC, your budget, AND YOUR COUNTRY if outside the USA. If you are asking for improvements, clarify whether you want to lower price or to improve specs or build quality.

So what does the NSA use to listen to me on B150 chipsets?

I am going to buy a Windows 10 OEM key by Microsoft at it's full value of ninety United States dollars and and seventy-two cents from Amazon.com.

one 16GB, two 8GB or four 4GB RAM sticks?
Disregarding flexibility for future updates, just in terms of performance.
Elijah Phillips
Dude you just need to start all over from the ground up. Ain't nothing you're going to be doing with a Dell motherboard worth the potential hassles.

Assuming your board doesn't use quad channel, two 8gb.

Hmm
Ryder Garcia
Putting the trip on and coming back to these threads because some of the advice I've read in the past 2 or 3 days has been straight up horrible. Hope nobody listened to all of the retards in the last thread. JFC.
Depends on the motherboard. X99 supports quad channel so if you have 4 sticks they'll be slightly faster than running 2 of the same total RAM amount in dual channel. It's not a make or break difference though. Realistically 2x8 GB is fine, especially on non-X99, where it's your best option.
Matthew Walker
If I was able to avoid dell and build my machine from bits I would. Trust me. That's how I built my last machine back in 2010. But the whole caveat now is that I basically have to find the least shit thing at dell at my pricepoint. Either that or find a comparable canadian service willing to build a not shit machine for me and ship that.
It sucks and I could get a better machine for way cheaper if I built it myself but that's not an option. Nor I do know anyone who could do it FOR me, hence buying a prebuilt from a service.

Possible or nah?
Taking an HP Rp5700 and ricing it for fun. Including a full internal paintjob, red/black fans, LED's and other autism

So get one with a not shit cpu and stick a gpu in it. That's what I did with my first pc

Get a prebuilt before you hurt yourself or anyone else....

i7. Hyperthreading is your friend for things like that.

Easton Thompson
Why isn't it an option? Discount with Dell or something?
What socket is that motherboard? Is it LGA775? I think that CPU will fit in the socket but no idea if it will boot. Could be worth a try.
It's fine if you can afford it. Stop posting now. What the hell is your question? Yes, it will work. Yes, it will play games. What do you want from us?
Adrian Ortiz
must have missed this, but what are you using this build for?
Connor Green
I...I just want to be friends....I'm like 40 years old guys....

Landon Scott
Which nvidia cards don't require external power?
Wyatt Murphy
if you're not content creating, you don't need an i7, go with an i5 6600k, save yourself like 100 dollars. you also probably don't need 32gb of ram, go with 16 at the most and upgrade later if you really want, again you save yourself around 100 dollars or more there. otherwise you're on the right track, i don't think you necessarily need 850 watts of power but it probably can't hurt in the long run, just know you can probably downgrade comfortably with that.
Tyler Sanders
It's an i7 with a GTX 1080 if that's not shit?
Gift Cards. It's too late to get em swapped for parts places so I figure make the best of it and get a machine. Just so long as the specs aren't garbage. Catch is a bunch of shit goes off sale in a day or two so I'm basically stuck trying to research a bunch of shit before I end up getting (what I assume will be) a much worse deal after this boxing week sale finishes.
But even after talking directly with their help service multiple times I got told they didn't know the mobo info and then later didn't divulge that info due to policies. Then found a service manual with a manufacturing number that has no real information about it online. So I'm not really going to know until it arrives but from what I can discern the specs aren't that bad.

Oliver Brooks
I completed my build but there's no fucking display, pls help ;_;
Here's my problem: Despite all my fans working, my mobo lighting up, and even my GPU and CPU fans working, there is no display on the computer.
I have tried using the motherboard port, trying different memory card orientations, choosing a different monitor, and double checking all the proper connections. None of these methods worked.
I can provide additional photos/details..
Caleb Evans
Is your ram in all the way?
Colton James
Do you have a speaker on the board to hear if it posts?
Jonathan Powell
Is there a single board computer can replace a 2006 PC?
Luke Murphy
Going to get a GTX1060, can anyone recommend which card to get? I'd like one under 10 inches.
Jose Hill
what's the best non-meme sub-$100 case with a window panel a poorfag like me can buy?
Easton Cox
check your input mode on you monitor
Tyler Bennett
show us a photo of the back of the pc plz??
Brody Jenkins
Fractal has some nice looking windowed cases around the 70-100 dollar range. never used them but they have good ratings.
Alright well just buy it brah then we can be 5820k brahs in a speccy thread together.
Certain versions of the 750ti, 950, 1050, 1050 ti.
Monitor input mode like the other user said. Sounds stupid but just need to make sure. This is why it's always good to hook up a cheap speaker to a new build to diagnose POST issues.
Define R5. Don't get a window case though.
Isaiah Wilson
Yes. Ach, I don't know if this MoBo has a speaker. There are no beeps however.
I've tried different monitors, no use. The monitor worked fine with my old build too... Back as in where I am connecting the monitor? I don't think that's the case but I will check it out. What do I look out for?
Anthony Campbell
Your monitor might have inputs for HDMI/Displayport/DVI. Make sure you're having it search for the right input.
Matthew Nguyen
yes, where all the cords plug in
Jack Price
It is checking for DVI, which is the cord I'm using.

try plugging into the motherboard

Anyone ever shipped to a fedex location with newegg?
How long do they hold the packages until it get sent back to the sender?
Ethan Cruz
Still nothing
Jonathan Reed
it's smaller, so it's good for small cases. But those are for wimps. get an internal exhaust GPU and a couple extra fans on top of the case.
Is this good enough to run modern shit?, any modifications you'd make?
Sebastian Parker
The Asus Z170 Pro is discounted to the same price as the pro gaming. Is there a good reason to get it instead of the pro gaming?
Colton Thompson
I would try for 16gb of ram, and possibly a 1060 if possible.
it should run it all at 1080p at high settings, or 1440p on medium.
Ian Sullivan
Noted, and everything else would be good?
Adrian Ward
show the side. take the gpu off use only 1 ram stick at a time , try them both. feel like something is not well plugged.
Mason Gutierrez
More sata, usb 3.0, and I think it has better audio. I'd say so.
Evan Lewis
All right guys Asus H110M-A Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
It's a cheap motherboard but it has a shit ton of good reviews.
Is there anything I should know about this? It's going with my i3-6100 and rx470.
I'm trying to build a decent budget build.
Eli Davis
>More sata, usb 3.0, and I think it has better audio. Same audio controller, just different software. Both have 4 sata + 1 sata express, and the Pro has less sata 3 ports than the pro gaming.

Landon Phillips
Eh, providing only 2 fan headers isn't the greatest for builds with an AMD GPU. Having a third fan would be better. I'd look around a bit more.
Brandon Nguyen
Christ looking for a motherboard was at least 3x more time consuming than looking for both a GPU and a CPU.
Daniel Harris
This could mean anything from 1/10 to 11/10. Although I'm going to assume you mean the lower end of that spectrum -.-
