« on: March 30, 2021, 04:09:18 pm »Hi and welcome to bad news Tuesday!Oh thanks for letting me know, yeah the one there is a 1650 super, I will probably get it.
The graphic cards market is still screwed and getting worse. The memory prices are going up. And stocks are running out everywhere!!!
GTX 1650 super: You won't be able to get this card at that store, nor anything else on ikman listed for GTX 1650 super or 1660 super or 1660 ti. It's all sold out (As of last week). And the market price seems to be 65k for the Asus TUF 1650S now.
However, there is a 1650 listed at Barclays https://www.barclays.lk/itemdesc.asp?ic=VGAG0456&eq=&Tp= . Call and check if it's the 1650 super, if so probably get it immediately.
Intel core i5 10400, B460 wifi, 2666mhz: Redline doesn't have the 2666mhz ram. Nor anywhere else I can find. And, 3200mhz RAM won't work with B460 apparently (Won't post). You can run faster RAM with z490, and the 10400 will perform on par or better than the Ryzen 3600 with fast RAM according to reviews. But you could also go with a Ryzen 3600 if you are spending that much on the motherboard. Better upgrade path to more cores or Ryzen 5000 series if you get a B450 that has been updated to support Ryzen 5000 or a B550. An 8GB*2 RAM will set you back around 24,000 these days. With or without RGB.I called Redline yesterday, and they told me that the RAM mentioned will arrive within a week, and I've heard that the I5 doesn't support RAM speeds over 2666mhz, that's what put me off from buying a B560, which was available on winsoft.
Alternatively, there is a brand new Ryzen 2600 listed on https://www.buykorea.lk/products/r5_2600_new with 3y warranty but no cooler if you want to keep the price similar to a 10400. No experience with them, but a few guys here seem to have bought from them and they seem legit but mixed reviews on delivery times and experiences. They do seem to refund the money anytime if it's taking too long to get it down.
Case(I want this specific case) Cooler Master Q500L: The good news is that the case is actually available for purchase. The bad news is this is probably the worse branded case for thermals you can get in the local market. Most cases with the stock configuration of fans seem to outperform it easily. So unless you are planning to load it up with fans or work with Liquid cooling, maybe not the best choice.I replaced the case there with a Cooler Master 590 III, is it any good? It's out of stock right now, but I will try to find it elsewhere Finding cases is a real pain as most of them are RGB
Gamer Nexus (Also known as Tech Jesus) says it's the worse case they worked with for thermals in their history of reviewing cases. And they do review a lot. And they focus a lot on thermals.
, which I am not a fan ofSorry about the long post and bad news. Built a PC in the last few weeks, which is how I know. Not the best time to build honestly.It's fine, I appreciate this post very much, thanks for the help, I waited out too long, wanted to build one since last year April, so now I want to build it anyway as long as parts are not out of stock
Good luck though, hope it works out!!
