The L-connect software lets you set fan speed for each cluster - so im curious the issue youre having
Jovec
?

PWM mode to allow for mobo control. L-connect (or the hub) isn't reporting fan speed so the mobo thinks there are no fans connected and won't ramp speed up/down based on temps.

I don't have time to go back and check, what you said previously so I'll just ask.
The LianLi Unifans need to be connected to their controller (which comes with the 3 pack) and then the controller needs to be connected to the motherboard. That is done correct?

Got my 3070 and finished the build. Everything works fine, but it looks like I need a better backup ups. When the gpu is under heavy load, my apc backup ups gives an overload warning. I had to move the monitor off the backup. I only have it for the occasional power hiccup so it's not a priority.

This - everything is plugged into controller and it does everything including sending info to the motherboard incase i want to allow the motherboard to control it (via the button in l-connect software). Are you sure your hub is connected properly?
i have a gtx 1060 6gb laying around this girl i know wants to buy it what should i charge her? its lightly used but that dont matter much with the new cards n prices im thinking 80-100?

Pi’s are fun little projects if you’re serious. I’ll probably make one of these with my son in a year or two.Think I found my next computer...

Husband's 11+ year old computer is, understandably, shitting the bed and even simple stuff like getting sound to consistently come out of it when using discord and a browser is becoming difficult for it. Perusing around at some budget builds, is it just me, or are individual parts kind of a shit show right now in terms of price and availability? I haven't bought a pre-built in probably 20 years, are there any decent sellers these days? Other than the markup for building/wiring it up, how are the prices vs. the individual cost of the parts? Aiming for something in the $5-800 range that can at least play more recent titles; no 4k, no VR, none of the fancy shit if anyone has any recommendations for a build or a pre-built around that. Also, something easy to upgrade later on.

pre-builds are pretty good, especially if youre building a new pc and video cards are hard to come by now, however pre-builds will start out at 1500$ on the low end, usually

For....well a couple paragraphs of reasons.... pandemic, supply constraints, tariffs, china, cryptomining....part pricing and availability is absolute shit right now. It was bad during release in the fall, it's somehow worse now. And will be until at earliest May. If you don't want to play whac-a-mole staring at twiter/discord feeds hoping to buy a GPU/CPU in the 30 seconds or so they are available every other day ..... go with a pre-built like origin/cyberpower/digitalstorm/falconnorthwest.
AMD processors(they all are better than intel)
16gb pc3600 ram
m.2 nvme 1tb main drive
GPU.....whatever your wallet can bear. If you're 1080p gaming even the lowest tier current gen GPU will hit 144hz.
Rest is nitpicking really. That setup should last you 10 more years.

ibuypower and cyberpowerpc are generally some of the decent places for prebuilts - not many companies that do prebuilts do budget builds - alternatively its cheaper to build yourself and the parts you need are available
AMD 3600 or 3100?
Ryzen 5600x or 2060 non-super?
16GB ram
b460 mobo
1tb intel ssd
case
500w psu
Something like this - you can find better options on GPU from local people do disregard that price - you can also go 512SSD and 2TB platter for storage

Yeah, I'd normally just build my own, though I'm not super knowledgeable on hardware but I can take a list and put it together at least. Was going to just get him something pretty similar to my current build until I saw pretty much everything was either out of stock or twice the price. He seems pretty happy with that 207 build (probably could have done the cheaper 206 build since the majority of his gaming is on Xbox and he barely uses the PC, but maybe he'll use it more now than it actually works?) and it comes with all the RGB stuff he wanted (I turned all that shit off on mine) so looks like we're going with that. I can always toss in one of the Intel SSDs later on (honestly, I don't think he'll even need it) and another stick of RAM.
Thanks, guys!
