Quick Sync. I wish AMD and their "Quick Sync" worked better with Plex and Transcoding. I've also had some weirdish errors in unRAID with my old Ryzen 1700 CPU.

Haha. Oops. Meant to say 4070TI. When I move the components over to become the unRAID server, I will probably sell off the GPU.

I am looking to build a new computer for the first time since 2017. I plan to move these components to become my unRAID server once I need something new (4 years away or so). This is why I've selected the motherboard (10Gb and Thunderbolt built-in). I also have 15 drives currently in my server...

I am running stock. How could I see if this occurs?

I think these temps look much better. I installed Windows 10 and immediately installed the ASRock monitoring program. Temps were around 29*C. I then ran AIDA64 and did a stability test. The hottest it got was 39*C. I have posted a screenshot of the test. I ran it for 30 mins. The fans were...

Will do! Yes (on having the most up to date bios)

I don't remember any. I took of the plastic cover. I also was getting these temps before and took it off and re did the thermal compound after cleaning it with Artic cleaner

After 15 mins with the fan around 1500 rpm (full speed) it read 49*C. I should say the temp before would hit around 52*C.

I went with the Noctua - NH-D15 and I'm getting higher temps just in bios than I think i should. The cpu temp hovers around 50*c just in the bios. I haven't installed windows yet, so that's the only reading I can get. I have the mobo just on top of the box to check everything out before putting...

So sorry about not updating my specs in my bio. Doing that now. I already own that EVGA card. My current specs Mobo: Asus P5W DH-Deluxe CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 GPU: EVGA GTX 750 Memory: 4Gb of 2GB random sticks HD: 2 - WD Black 1TB

I would prefer to use the function, but I would like not to wait a couple months for a card to be available…..Tough decisions. I guess I’ll wait it out and use EVGA GTX 750 until I can buy a Vega GPU.

I’ve got nearly everything except for the GPU. It looks like I won't be able to get a Vega 56 for weeks if not more than a month. Should I just get a 1070 and call it a day? Does having Freesync make a big difference?

I think I'm gonna stick with the Vega 56 because of my monitor being Freesync and not going with VR just yet (maybe never). Thanks again everyone for all the replies and discussion.

Does that cooler have a AM4 bracket? I made sure to pick the cooler that came with the AM4 bracket. I grabbed that PSU last night for $58. Thanks!

I was looking on Newegg about the H115i and the pump failing. Is that an overblown issue? I've never done watercooling before, but not against an AIO. I was thinking Vega 56 because of my Omen monitor which has FreeSync. Is that something that isn't worth it?
