My main PC is a 1080ti + 5800x but this was going to replace my 2nd VR PC which had a GTX 1070 that is now broken (the 1070 gets error codes 50% of the time). I decided it wasn't worth spending $1200 just for a new graphics card since the VR PC doesn't get used much anyway. I will wait for a good deal on a graphics card only.
I'd love to grab one but sold out. Wonder once you cancelled yours would I get my waiting list email filled?
I might selling mine once I got it, I was desperate to get a proper graphic card, but now buyer's remorse.
Lol I already got mine wtf. Great shipping time.
Wow very fast.
If this helps anyone, I also installed Crucial Ballistix 3200Mhz CL16 RAM and it booted up perfectly no dramas. Only runs at 2666Mhz thought. Dual channel. Can't find any way to up the speed unfortunately in the BIOS options
And DLSS is amazing. Makes it destroy the gtx1080 I had previously.
use ryzen master to manually set your ram speed.
Shipping was super quick, received in the morning. Any idea of how to cheaply upgrade the RAM to 32GB?
Buy a 16Gb stick lol and install it
check cpuz for the current ram it has and try to find another similar stick from the same manufacturer would be my go.
Right, the same manufacturer is what concerns me.
So if anyone in Sydney bought it, and wants to upgrade the RAM, I am happy to either sell mine from HP or buy their's and then the other one can buy a new 32GB pair.
PM me if anyone interested.
I don't know what you're worried about, buy any 16Gb stick. I just put 2x8Gb crucial Ballistix and it worked fine
@Dvbargain: The point was to get matching pair of ram. Like same clock speed. This is for getting dual channel to work.
@xoom: It downclocks it and makes it dual channel.
At least it did for my completely random RAM. Can't say I tried putting a 16gb stick in that was higher than 2666mhz but I would hedge my best of no issues
Received the PC yesterday, the shipment was impressive!
No surprise for the single RAM , but it is actually running at 3200Mhz!
The 2060 graphic card is a single fan model, not sure it will get too hot when playing games or mining.
What's the CPU cooler like? Stock?
The cooler looks better than the stock one, haven't stress tested it yet.
It's not, it's trash. 82c while gaming, 50c + idle.
On a positive note even 100 percent utilisation of GPU is not very loud at all, even 100 percent usage of CPU isn't that loud, but my CPU does thermal throttle at all core 4091Mhz, whereas I believe it should be able to do about 4200Mhz if not throttling ..
TLDR - fan curve is quiet but let's CPU get really hot, GPU is quiet enough and not very hot.
@Dvbargain: Somebody posted on youtube to change to stock CPU fan to cheap snowman 5 which fix the problem.
@couger: Yeah saw someone change to Noctua too. I will do it but only when the warranty period ends. Under 90c isnt too hot for these chips anyway, it's not going to explode lol
@Alaken: I can answer that many ways, are you asking cos you're interested why CPU temp is so high? If so, it's not the game, MSI afterburner shows 25 percent usage in Fortnite at 130-144Hz and still 80c or so
What do you currently have?
