I'm not up on the slang. What kind of drug is that?

It’s been around for a few years like this.
7700k / 1070
480gb ssd OS
1tb ssd games
16gb ddr4

Just built her about a month ago. 9700k, 500gb 970 Evo, GTX 1080, 4TB HDD, 2X1TB HDDs, H100i AIO, Phanteks p350x case.

I want to do a new build but so underwhelmed by gains and the prices are ridiculous. 4790k/gtx 1070 running at 3440x1440. Handles most games easily.

why so much mechanical storage? You built a 9700k and 1080. Load up on SSDs man, they're cheap as shit.

>4TB HDD, 2X1TB HDD
Ew. Learn to RAID.

he's probably storing movies and shit on the HDDs

That's what i've got in mine.

Why would you RAID if you have no need for it?

You always have a need for it, whether you think you do or not.

lol what?

RAID is for uptime, i'm not a business, i have no need for 24/7 uptime.

If you want redundancy, make regular backups.

You have to be autistic or stupid to think RAID is appropriate for most home users.

You aren't hosting anything mission critical that NEEDS to be accessed at a moments notice.

If you are, sure, get RAID, but otherwise? Backups are fine. I have 16TB right now not in any sort of RAID because it's fucking stupid for my use-case of storing movies and TV.

500gb to 6gb is still a funky ratio for a build that expensive. Especially when SSDs are so fucking cheap.

Look at all that reddit.

I have 250GB m.2, 500GB SATA SSD, and like 16TB in HDDs.

Slink away, then.

you literally have no reply to my point, im not really sure what you want to argue about now.

This isn't an argument, reddit. I was simply mocking you.

>big case little board
Why? Just why?

I guess it depends when you built? SSDs lifespan dwarfs mechs. There was a time when loading up on TBs of mechs made sense, but that time has passed. Even if you need a fuckton of storage it's still worth it to do in SSDs due to their price and their lifespan.

Is that a cum-cooled PC?

old case was way smaller

>due to their price and their lifespan
Their price per TB is still higher than mechanical. Lifespan depends on how much you use them. For long term/archival storage that rarely gets accessed, mechanical HDD still wins, since those will stay good for ages while SSDs gradually lose data.

Delusional

Why spend $2000+ on 20TB of storage on SSDs when you can get 2 10TB hdds for ~$600-700

This. SSDs are pointless for this if you don't need high speed random accesses. Something this big is most likely going to be used for movies and TV, which you only really access sequentially and slowly as they're played.

I don't know anyone that needs 20TB and if you do I will take your word for it desu. But if you're a real life normal to packrat kinda person who uses >3TB there's no reason to even by mechs.

If you're hoarding at levels unforeseen then I guess I can accept it.

>I do not need raid in my use case because all I have is movies
besides you being degenerate there is the fact that using redunadancy raid by simple people would save them from data loss realy often. So ye - most people should use raid. And backups.

this is beautiful

Had them lying around, if I were buying new I'd have gone with less, bigger drives for storage

jesus that's another beauty

From the thumbnail I thought it was some OG copper and fish tank parts water cooling. It's a bunch of discolored tubes and EK parts set up like shit.

What's the point?

Raid is for up time.

What would it matter if it took a day or two to replace an HDD and restore from a backup?

Why is having online redundancy important for a home user? Why the fuck should a home user waste money on Raid when they have zero practical need for it?

temps and speks lad?

Holy fuck, kys.

Smaller builds always look so damn good when they're done right.

What do you use all that storage for user.

Somewhat hard to find boards without heavy RGB shit, but this was the best I could do. At least I can make it match and it's a pretty fully featured board. Shite phone camera.

You first

Explain why the fuck a home user needs 24/7 uptime?

Raid is pointless for home users, a proper regular backup strategy is far more prudent than live redundancy.

Raid is NOT meant to be used as a backup, it puts constant wear on both sets of drives meaning they both need to be replaced around the same time. Offline backups only get wear during backup operations, any other time they're sitting offline not being used, meaning if you have a drive failure, you just pop in your backup and you're good to go.

Raid is just a senseless waste of money due to increased wear on your drive.

>Raid is just a senseless waste of money due to increased wear on your drive.
Assuming you don't need 24/7 uptime for your data (which is 99% of people)

still not using watercooling
Electricity and water just don't mix
Are there any reports of catastrophes regarding watercooling?

This is how your $4000 build will end up.

I really don't see the point in watercooling a cpu.

>pump failures are common
>extremely small differences in temps vs air cooled
>generally more expensive
>water+ electricity = shit
>not nearly as simple or robust, will probably break after 3 or so years vs a metal block + fans that can last forever

>pump failures are common
Lmao its not 2010 buddy.

Yup. I-it was a simpler time?
Really though, with the exception of the GPU, all the water blocks were free; and I felt like not using them when I had them was the worse choice.
At the time, anyway. Not sure about that anymore.

>extremely small differences in temps vs air cooled
>water+ electricity = shit

If you're going to bash it at least have experience with it before you do.

xD That temp.

You don't have to fight your buyer's remorse here. We all know how it is.

Not him but redpill me desu

My experience was having a GPU that never went above 30 c and an overclocked 4770k that was at 45-50c under load, far better than any air cooking setup, the coolant is not just water and it is non-conductive too.

The argument that it isn't simple and its expensive is legitimate though, if you don't do your research you are going to be replacing corroded blocks and you will need to clean the system every 1-2 years anyway to replace the fluid and tubing.

I think you can get another 3 drive cage on that. God i wish i had all that space to put spinning rust

That has to be the worst loop I've ever seen.

> RMA it on the last month of the warranty saying some dumb shit and they sent me a h80i v2 in the week after
You really never saw or used or knew someone that have a AIO or a custom loop. That is the only explanation to all the bullshit you just wrote.
