    Nice to see the MSI B660M-A pro as an option, thanks for listening to the feedback!

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 19/05/2022 - 12:21

      Yep, based directly on feedback that one. And good on MSI too - the B560M-A Pro was a pretty basic board but they've really stepped up the B660.

        Thanks Luke for accepting the suggestion for this board.

        B660M-A can take i7 non K without VRM throttling. It is worth upgrading to this board if you are running CPU intensive tasks with i7. It is an overkill for a non K i5.

      • Hodlman Sachs on 19/05/2022 - 14:17

        Hi Luke, any possibility on a MSI B660M-A pro Wifi version?

        • Boomstick on 20/05/2022 - 12:55

          Someone always gotta ask for a step further xD

      • ATrain17 on 25/05/2022 - 21:47

        Does anyone know if the MSI PRO B660M-A will fit a wifi card under the GPU? The website says ‘should’ fit.

    Typo in the second build, B560M is not compatible with i5 12400f

      Fixed thanks.

  • foxxo on 19/05/2022 - 12:28

    Ordered! The order site seems broken on mobile, you can't get to the cart if you miss the countdown after adding item. Then on the cart page, the shipping estimate doesn't allow you to select the state (why is that needed with the post code anyway?). But I switched to "desktop site" and everything worked fine.

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 19/05/2022 - 12:59

      Thanks for your order! And feedback.

      Did you (or others on mobile) not get this area via the Cart Icon appearing? I'm on iPhone 12.

      Changing shipping was also working for me on the Cart page before Checkout.

      • Nebargains on 19/05/2022 - 13:22

        I just tested this on an S20+ in Chrome and I was able to get to the cart and choose a state.

        However with the state, despite showing as a pretty standard looking drop down menu I could only get it to show the list of states if I specifically clicked on the words "—- Please Select —-" anywhere in the space to the right of that, or even the down arrow and nothing - this behavior can be replicated on computer also, in fact at first the words "Please Select" don't even appear so I just thought the drop down menu was broken until I started randomly clicking around and then hit the 100px box that will trigger it. Also as an extremely minor UI bug on mobile, if you bring up that list and then click away from it the arrow stays pointing upwards until you click on the screen again.

        • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 19/05/2022 - 14:03

          Thanks, will pass onto devs.

    Intel build MB link should be https://www.gigabyte.com/Motherboard/B660M-DS3H-DDR4-rev-10

    Also just noticed MSI MAG B660M Bazooka has the wrong link too - https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B660M-BAZOOKA-DDR4

    (Pretty sure those are the correct links…)

    Just watched a few videos on that mobo and it lags behind the main b660's ( even after bios updates )

    This intel build would be perfect with a "MAG B660M BAZOOKA DDR4" ( which can handle a 12900 level cpu at max turbo without major issues )

    Hey Luke, i bought a i5 12400F RTX 3080 last Friday and just wondering how long would it normally take to arrive. i live in Melbourne.

    just i haven't got an email or a tracking number, so i am a bit unsure. all i have is the bank transaction details and i paid $2236.92 on 13th May.

    Hi Rep,
    May I ask should I go for i5 12400k or ryzen 7 5700x? I just want a computer to play games, no overclock.

      Be fine with either.

    • happyangus on 19/05/2022 - 13:36

      Do you mean 12400f? No such thing as 12400k. I reckon it's more than capable given the price compared to a 5700x

    • Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 19/05/2022 - 14:02

      5700X is available as an upgrade from 5600 in most deals I post. K chips from Intel have never worked for us sales wise so we tend not to stock them.

  • Jazza2400 on 19/05/2022 - 13:23

    Hey Luke a mate ordered 5600/3070 last week, where abouts are they at now?

  • Justahappymortal on 19/05/2022 - 14:43

    Total PC noob here. Looking to get a pc for games, mainly AAA games and valorant/apex/pubg/modded minecraft etc.

    Do I need to upgrade the cpu/ motherboard/power supply?

    • scuderiarmani on 19/05/2022 - 14:52
      +1

      While it doesn't hurt upgrading the PSU, for someone new to things any other upgrades would probably be a waste of money. Unless you really fancy yourself to tinker with it but I don't think that's techfast main clientele….

    • incipient on 19/05/2022 - 14:53
      +2

      Valorant etc will be perfectly fine with any of these computers. Modded MC can be beyond insane, if you're using 512+ textures and any ray tracing mods even a 3090 can be made to struggle! (if you try hard)

      AAA games will depend on what resolution. the 3070 will be great for FHD, or QHD 60fps. if you want high hz QHD, or 4k, you'll need to go with the 3080.

      Generally Luke matches CPU and GPUs very well, so no real need to bump up much there; again MC is the only holdout - sometimes it can really slam the CPU.

      In terms of the PSU, personally I like going with something decent, and at least gold efficiency and a 7yr+ (ideally 10yr) warranty. If I was buying this, I would ask what model/models of PSU they use. I would generally however trust Luke and that they don't use any junk parts…I'm just (too!) fussy about my PSU.

      All of this aside, if you can wait until the new series of GPUs drop, you'll be able to make a much better choice. e.g. if you're running say a 1070 or something, I would be waiting. If you have zero computer at all now, then Luke does give some great options.

      • Justahappymortal on 20/05/2022 - 02:25

        I have a laptop with 1050 right now so a 3070/3080 would actually be a huge upgrade. Thank you :D

        My current comp is i7-6700 and ASUS GTX 1070 Strix
        Rams 16GB
        Do you think should i order ryzen 7 5700x + RTX 3080 or wait for 2 or 3 months?

        Thank you in advance.

        • incipient on 20/05/2022 - 10:52

          Unless your laptop is breaking, or you really need to play some new game, it'd wait.

          Prices should be coming down still, and even if you don't buy the new gen cards coming out, their performance (and extra supply) should really push down prices.

    • ATangk on 19/05/2022 - 15:01

      You may or may not want wifi, but its cheaper to buy a wifi card than to upgrade to the highest tier mobo for built in wifi. That said, there are other reasons to get those mobos, for example if you want to use optical audio, or have thunderbolt requirements.

      • Justahappymortal on 20/05/2022 - 02:27

        I do want WiFi, but I have no idea what optical audio and thunderbolt requirements are so might actually grab a WiFi card instead. Thank you :D

    • nitens on 19/05/2022 - 15:39

      As others have suggested CPUs look fine. As do the motherboards. That being said, if it were me I'd splash a small amount for a better mobo (next tier up on their offerings) on both these. I just like the MSI intel offerings better than Gigabyte and the aorus on the AMD side gives you more fan headers, and improved voltage regulation.

      Power supply upgrades totally depend on how you do PCs. If you're likely to upgrade and pass on/selll the whole unit then the standard supplies look fine. If you're likely to squeeze in graphics card upgrades or other tweaks (extra storage drives etc.) to make the machine last as long as possible then I'd definitely suggest getting as big a power supply from a quality manufacturer as your budget allows. GPUs will just keep getting more and more power hungry I think, and having the added cost of power supply swap with a GPU upgrade can be a pain. Power supplies also don't tend to change that fast in price or performance over time, so a decent PSU now will still probably still be good in 5 years.

        Sorry to hijack, would you have any suggestions for a air cooler CPU fan for the Ryzen 5600 3080 build? I know certain fans my not fit due to the size, and potential to block the ram slots

        • nitens on 19/05/2022 - 15:49
          +1

          Gonna need to know what the RAM clearance mobo heatsink clearances are. but that case has 160mm of CPU clearance so most air coolers except the very largest "should" fit assuming you don't have super high RAM sticks etc.

      • Justahappymortal on 20/05/2022 - 02:28

        Might sell this pc off pretty soon after I graduate so I reckon that means I won’t have to buy a better power supply. Def will upgrade the mobo. Thank you so much for the input :D

    The AMD Ryzen 5 5500 RTX 3060 Ti ($1288), will this equal or better than XSX performance? Or if I want to play all gamepass exclusive, better go for i5-11400F RTX 3060 Ti?
