I think mine is around 35-40kg or more
HAF-x is 15KG empty, it's surprising how much weight a full waterloop adds

Shame the motherboard isn't the X570-E
For the devices that are cooled by water, the extra radiator is pretty much always a benefit. The issue is with anything else in the system that is passively cooled. If the air inside the case ends up at 35-40 degrees, things like the VRM's, chipset that simply have heatsinks will end up hotter. The only way to know what is best is to try all of the available combinations of intake/exhaust and radiator or no radiator and find the optimum config that keeps all components sensibly cooled.So quick Q for you watercoolers.
Currently have 3 rads in PC, one top, one bottom, one front. Would it be better overall to take the front rad out so cooler air is being pushed into the case?
Disclaimer: I may have asked this before, however, I'm never really please with my PC so apologies if so.
So since I know absolutely nothing about AMD CPU these days, I wondered what people thought about this. If its a decent deal. Bear in mind its Norway so everything is insanely priced.
Also the GPU in this deal would cost me 20290 on its own. Only drawback is that I dont want the CPU cooler so my plan would be to sell it unopened.
Thats £2600 approx in GBP.
Sisters went back to school on Thursday. Both their schools closed already due to coronavirus clusters spreading. Seems to be happening all across the country, and already tipping many areas onto edge of a 2nd(3rd?) wave. What an f*ing shambles this political establishment is, even the Labour leader ignored(/sacked) his backbench colleagues to back this scientifically inept policy of rushed school re-openings.
Typical "I'm alright jack" attitude on display here mate, my area has had cases rising for the past month, glad to know you're somewhere nice and less densely populated though. The rushed relaxing of the lockdown has already put Mancheester in an eternal state of limbo.Not exactly rushed back, instead of blaming the Government I'd question what your sisters schools were doing, my sons been back since wednesday and no problems and some of his friends at different schools with no outbreaks, Classes are kept in seperate so if somebody is suspected of it they only have to send that class home. Maybe the teachers at your sisters school enjoyed the long break to mauch and wanted more. ^_^
Sorry buddy but I don't like this deal you can get a much better board than that one and unless the 3200 is CAS14 then I'd get something at 3600 as it's much better for Ryzen, the 3900XT is fantastic though, so yeah i seriously think you can do better separately

Instead of blaming the people who make the decisions you say I should blame the infected victims(Teachers, obviously the kids haven't been tested) for getting infected going back to work taking care of your kids for you? One teacher gets infected, that's 150 pupils(One class/year group in a working class area) off school. Took 3 teachers for authorities to recommend closing the whole school. No wonder the countries in this state with this kind of bootlicking.
All schools are bubbling their classes at the moment, but with staff shortages 150 pupil bubbles (IE one Year group) are not rare at all at the moment in inner city areas, many teachers have to teach multiple forms within the year group.As I said my son's school are keeping classes separate, so a teacher gets it it's only that 1 class so unless that teacher has 150 pupils in the class, my sons school checks temperatures each day.
How can the country go back to normal when we're maintaining and now potentially aiding the threat of a 2nd wave? The economic damage the UK has undergone from coronavirus vs other countries is has shown this "light touch" approach is not just bad for the public health, it inevitably harms the economy as it slows the eventual recovery. Similarly sized EU countries that underwent stronger lockdowns have been able to restart a lot of economic activity much earlier and with less risk.At the end of the day the country has to get back to normal, and to start that parents need to have their kids at school. money doesn't grow on trees and the Government can't keep borrowing
Please read some actual economic theory, honestly just any school of theory. The idea there is some kind of limit of state borrowing, or that a modern high GDP state could cause runaway inflation through this sort of state borrowing, doesn't fit into any actual school of economics, it's just Tory party fluff. I mean, just look at the inflation levels we've experienced over the last few months after hundreds of billions of new money "printed" into supply, it's essentially still "minflation" levels. We need to avoid deflation at any cost if we want to get people spending again, so quantitative easing/"printing money" to tide industries and people over with state aid until the risk is eliminated would actually be economically desirable. Besides not needing weird short term and still expensive schemes to bring back public spending confidence like "eat out to help out". It would also put money into the pockets of those most likely to spend it ofc, meaning significant chunks will go straight back in taxes.money doesn't grow on trees and the Government can't keep borrowing
Again I have to research to the scientific research here, national investigations found no rises in coronavirus cases due to BLM protests, there was a lot of independent research into this and not a single area of protests was found to have a measurable spike in the UK, and similar was found in other countries. The spikes have came in a period where very few protests were happening, and with track and trace we know where most infections are occurring, and it's predominantly amongst student populations returning to study in areas like Salford and Manchester with huge student populations. Is it any shock that the city with the largest student population in Europe is still under lockdown?We had a lockdown and then people decided it was ok to go and mass riot and it hasn't stopped. and now we nave a spike of people mostly in their 20's
EU countries similar population to us Germany and France both getting a possible 2nd wave, if you go by Density it's only Germany which has a 2nd wave.
Yeah well as I said, things are not cheap here anyway. And I thought that board was mediocre at best. But look at these prices on just the mobo
the 3900XT in the deal is 6000 on its own.
This...
Oslo has seen a surge in adult cases and has become a hot zone again. However schools are still open and yet there are no reports on children cases. Segregation in schools here is done very smartly. Its quite funny, people here are blaming the government too, yet we have a tiny fraction of positive tests in comparison with UK.
Might wanna check this timeline of events, people were filling beaches and having big VE day street parties feat. congas long before the mostly socially distance protests of people predominantly wearing masks. Working class people, particularly those from the BAME communities protesting, were having to cram onto busses, construction sites, ect to get to work for months prior to that anyway.Remember that most young people don't show symptoms so unless they went to get tested there wouldn't show a spike, but the side effect of those riots was that people started to ignore the lockdown, you can't tell thousands not to go to the beach if you allow 1000's to riot on the street.
