Computer build help

Alright Holla Forumsaggots. I need help.

I'm in the process of building my first PC. These are the specs, but also two 8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM sticks as well. pcpartpicker.com/list/pjkZXH

I have everything installed component-wise besides the GPU, OS, and HDD. I'm trying to test it by turning it on, but,it would only start for half a second before shutting back off.

I tried removing and reinserting/moving around the RAM, now it won't turn on at all.

What could I be doing wrong? Is there something I'm missing?

We're not your tech support, and what is that fucking image?

Did you press the stock fan a bit? When I was building my mum's new pc the other day I forgot to press down on the stock fan and the CPU immediately went to boiling point. Make sure the thermal paste is making contact.
Otherwise, check if the Power pins from the PSU connecting to the motherboard are pushed all the way in.

Something I pulled from google images, idk.

>its a generic build that has a 4690k, emphasis on the kkk for killing niggers
>a g600 LASER mouse

Thanks.

Make sure the RAM is seated correctly, and also that your shit is static discharge safe

WOW GEE GOLLY THANKS FOR YOUR SOLID INPUT AND HELPFUL ADVICE.

I'll check that too. Thanks.

Holy shit you're a dumb nig

k

Fuck op you are really going to spend 2000$?

Are you a retarded?

this is bait

I plan on playing KSP, Doom, Arma, doing animation, etc.

Nigger, a toaster can run doom

The new one you bich.

also >Windows 10

To give (you) some actual advice: Don't actually spend money on Windows 10. You got a spare laptop with Windows 7/8 or something lying around? Go to Microsoft's website, download an ISO of your OS, and use your existing serial number to activate it on your computer.
why?

Maybe he wants to play Forza Horizon 3? Or maybe he likes getting eye cancer from the horrendous UI. Or he really, really wants the nsa to watch him fap.

I at least just really don't want to torrent my OS. And I've never had an issue with 10.

Or maybe he wants to unleash the framedropping power of DirectX 12™

C'mon son. Only companies do that.
That is, if they don't opt for loonix.

that RAM looks weird to me, also that mouse, do you really need all that shit? Wouldn't a g502 do the job?

Also that cpu, never heard of it. BUt hoe is compared to a i5 6600k?

pcpartpicker.com/list/4Q8n9W

It only cost $1300 since you want that graphics card, otherwise you could make it cheaper by getting a cheaper graphics card.

You should play the old one. A toaster can run the old one.

Try the paper clip trick on the PSU. BE CAREFUL and detach the PSU from all other components before attempting test. Maybe pull up a video on how to do this.

If it acts strange then you may have found your problem. Get on the phone with EVGA and troubleshoot, if unsuccessful, activate the warranty and get them to mail you a new or equivalent PSU.

I had an issue with my build and had to get a new PSU. It was a platinum rated corsair unit, so it's not like these problems are exclusive to EVGA The power supply is one of the most critical and finicky parts in a PC.

If it's not the power supply then try inspecting the motherboard for scorch marks and maybe attempt re-seating the CPU and look for bent pins on it. Double check all cables aren't damaged and are connected, like the 24-pin and PSU power supply.

...

Do you have the RAM in the parts list in addition to the Corsair sticks?

Are the Corsair sticks a matching pair (i.e. in the same pack)?

Have you installed the RAM exactly as specified in the motherboard manual? (especially if you've got four sticks as the two brands would need to be on separate channels)

What are you animating, user?

Furry porn

Yes, yes, and yes.

I'll definitely try this, thanks.

god i want to fuck that horse

Alright guys, I have to leave. Thanks for the input. I'll try these ideas.

Feel free to drop any more while I'm gone.

The bug or the slut?

both.

i wanna be king of her hive if you know what i mean

Is the cpu cooler running? had a similar issue building my new rig.

I see you are a man of great taste

Not a problem.

One major upgrade would be an SSD. Of any component upgrade, this one would be the most noticeable and make the entire computer feel much faster.

Also, the 1070 GPU can easily support a "2K" / 1440p monitor. I found an equivalent monitor to the one listed in your build. It has G-Sync, which will help eliminate vertical "tearing" in games. Particularly useful if you play with a lot of texture modes, like in Skyrim for example. it does have a higher refresh rate but I've heard beyond 100hz there isn't a big difference. Also, Dell monitors tend to be pretty good with color reproduction and have nice deep blacks. So, the colors of an IPS vs a TN panel may not be too painful to pass on. IPS monitors would only add to the price as well.

These should be upgrades down the road when you have the money and inclination.

affordable Descases WHEN

You guys are okay.

You don't need 16 gigs unless you're a programmer running a bunch of VM's simultaneously. Get 8 you faggot.
You only need a 1060, not a 1070. You don't even really need a 1060.
YOU NEED AN SSD
Go for a 250ish cheapo SSD and a 2TB secondary at 7200 RPM.
I have a HAF 912 and it's great so the new HAF I'm assuming will be good.
I would go with Windows 7 instead of 10 just because you don't really need 10 for any reason. It boots faster but only because when you shut it down it's just hibernating. It's a trick.
Don't get a 144hz monitor you fucking retard.
STOP STOP YOURE FUCKING UP
Get a ducky zero with brown or blue switches. I prefer blue but I'm a typing fag. You'll probably prefer brown for gaming.
Get a G302 mouse.
Most important thing you're fucking up is the
LACK OF SSD
This is non negotiable in current year.

i think having autism is a mandatory requirement to fall for this shit.

For people like you who think a computer is just a facebook machine, you're right. It would be a bad choice.

Or just pirate

is it the switches or something? like csgo skins or tf2 autismhats?

i want to know why autists are so attracted to them. i've used one for a while, and i just can't see why you need to dish out $200+ jewgolds on a fucking keyboard when you could be spending that money on other shit for the build. there are people who literally spend $500 on an old unwieldy ibm keyboard from the 80s. that's some pure autism right there. didn't buy it. friend gave it to me and i rarely use it anymore. my fucking vaio laptop has better feeling keys, and it's a membrane. a really fucking good membrane.

...

i'd keep slut as entertainment, but bug is for love

Daily reminder that SJW renegade BTFO the queen of hive.

Make sure to have that small speaker plugged into the F_Panel (doesn't look like the mobo has a built in speaker for BIOS codes). Now when you turn it on do you get a series of beeps in a pattern? This is a the BIOS telling you what is wrong since it cannot display anything on screen. You mobo uses an AMI BIOS chip so the codes for the beeps can be found here. computerhope.com/comp/ami.htm

lmao kys fam

i think you might have some sort of mental disorder, user.
$130 mechanical keyboards seem like a good purchase descision if you don't already have a cheap as dirt old mechanical keyboard. i've considered getting one a few times to replace my nearly 2 decade old one just so it won't look like a piece of shit.

...

Ducky Zero is 60$ many times a year.

yeah should be watching ANIME like a MAN

i've only ever seen the 10-keyless ones on sale. i don't think i could handle not having a numpad.

It was never that good anyway.

...

Someone being a bigger faggot than OP? You don't see that everyday.

There are no major problems with this build. You did good. There are some tweaks suggested here that I can definitely get behind:
- needing 16gb of ram is a shitty meme perpetuated by fucking retards: I'm currently programming and crunching lots of data and even I rarely use more than 8.
- if you're going to use the GTX 1070, you should get a better monitor, otherwise it's kind of a waste. You could also downgrade to a 1060. It's a solid card. Up to you.
- Get an SSD and put your operating system(s) on it. Seriously. And you don't need a huge one, something in the 128-300gb area is fine.

Like I said user, you did good on your first build. A lot of the rest is personal choice or shit you buy only if you need to. Good luck faggot.


lol well played


Well the Unicomp Model Ms might as well be $1000 for a penniless nigger like you, but hard working whitey can get one for

I got the ducky zero with numpad for 60

Reminder gaming laptops are just a gimmick and an excuse to over charge. Just look for a mobile workstation. You will get way more bang for your buck. They shove throttled processors into gaming laptops. If the processor end in a U (Intel) or E(AMD) congrats you got boned. The processors prioritize low power consumption over performance and no amount of configuration can undo that.

take one of the sticks out and see if it starts

is the ram on the motherboard's supported ram list?

what speed is the ram ? it may be too fast for the board.

look this shit up before you buy shit

gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4968#

one of my builds i had to under clock my ram to to match the ram speed on the supported list to get the thing to come on.

Your opinion has been discarded.
Also, SSD for OS is just useful for boot time and noise reduction, it won't have an impact on in-game performance and it's an overall stupid suggestion to make, at least with the emphasis you're putting to it.

He is probably some redditor who is repeating what another retard said on that shithole.

shig & dig

Add in an SSD and install the OS on it, and pirate Windows 7 Ultimate.

Enjoy it failing after 2 years of use, also:
Get one and put your os in it, believe me, your won't regret it.
waste of money, if you really wanted a license, you could just buy it for cheap on kinguin. or pirate it
Why? with the same amount of money you could have just bought an i5 6600k, also, get a fucking third party fan if you are going to use a K series cpu, and not that shitty stock.
That's really too much for that resolution, of course super resolution exists, but you usually get powerful gpus like that if you have a 1440p monitor.
