  Keep in mind, the B450 doesn't support PCIe Gen 4. The B550 does though.

    Thus the cheaper price?

      You'll be missing out on the speeds that both the 5600 and 3070 support.

  The website stated that due to the 3070 RTX card, the other PCie slot cannot be use, is this correct? As I want to installed Pcie TP link WIFI card.
  Can anyone confirm the only option is WIFI via USB connector?

  • 

    Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 21/09/2023 - 14:58

    That is correct, the card will cover the PCIe port. USB WiFi is the networking solution that we offer for the PC's.

        I used a 10cm riser cable although in hindsight a 3-5cm cable (like this https://www.amazon.com.au/ADT-Link-90Degree-Extension-R11SL-…) would have been more suitable.

            @cephh: Hey,

            I got the FENVI Wi-Fi 6e and Bluetooth 5.3 combo card from AliExpress here: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005005061754557.html If you already have an AliExpress account, you can create a new one and get it for $18.31 delivered rather than the $74 standard price which is a great deal. It works great and was very simple to install. Card clips into the PCIe x1 slot and a small cable for the Bluetooth is installed onto a usb header on the motherboard. Didn't have to install any drivers, just started working as soon as I booted the PC on.

  Hi Luke, is it possible to buy this computer without the video card and hard drive?

  • 

    Morven on 21/09/2023 - 15:59

    Had same thoughts but just without video card (I have a 3070 in an eGPU enclosure and want to retire the laptop it connects to).

  • 

    Naigrabzo on 27/09/2023 - 11:39

    Unsure whether they would make ANY money with that combo. If I were the said business, I wouldn't bother making you this computer without a video card and harddrive. Or I would do it, but at a slightly higher cost to cover labour etc. IN business everyone must win, otherwise it's sad time for one party eventually.

      40% increase in price…
      Would that system give a 40% boost in performance? My initial thoughts is probably not, but I haven't actually checked!

      edit:
      the 4070 is about 30% faster from a quick google

      • 

        congo on 22/09/2023 - 09:06

        30% faster for 40% more, but it is more future proof.
        You get the 5700X over the 5600.

        Note the 550W PSU is not as future proof.
