oh windows 11
Heya Chipper if you are running 13th Gen Intel you will need to get a copy of Windows 11
With a hybrid architecture and non-optimized software, it makes things a bit of a mess, but as per Intel’s guidance,
they do recommend users use Windows 11 with 22H2 (or newer) for optimum performance when using 13th Gen Core series processors.

some help with the cooler Chipper
LTT Vid for you about AIO Coolers
Ta
Robag
cool
thanks Ro have factored that in
great cooler vid
ok so that puts things in perspective. Bummmer they didn’t run a 7 chip
Ok this is where I’m
Ok this is where I’m currently at:
with the windows 11 OS and build fee it comes to $3,884ish.
I had another look at the aftershock prebuilt systems… direct comparison is hard because you can’t select identical or in some case similar parts. Generally though I think I’m around $500 or so better off picking the parts and getting Umart to build up. Albeit i don’t get the 3year warranty aftershock provides generally.
some notes on changes:
cpu – went with the integrated graphics version because it’s handy when the GPU dies unexpectedly
cooler – went AIO because I find it a tidier solution to the big air coolers and easier to keep clean dust wise.
SSD – bigger just to be sure to be sure
Thoughts?
yep looking good
Morning Chipper
The Intel Core i7 13700K 16 Core LGA 1700 CPU Processor has integrate Graphics Intel® UHD Graphics 770
The DeepCool LT720 AIO Liquid CPU Cooler comes with LGA 1700 Mounting Hardware
maybe worth asking the question to Umart if they build it can you get extended warranty past the 1 year
looks like a solid Gaming Rig

mmm
I had a closer look at the warranty situation.
Umart includes a 2-year Labour Guarantee with all of our Custom PC Builds. Furthermore, all of the parts will have their individual manufacturer warranties. The build cost is currently $198.50. They also offer a Umart Build Repair for Custom PC Builds for systems assembled by Umart which have passed their labour warranty date. The Build Repair fee is currently $106.00.
AfterShockPC includes a 3 Year Warranty – Pickup and return from your location for $150 or 4 years for $450.
Think the choice come down to system specs/options available and acceptance of issues with getting system to MEL vs BNE supplier.
For memory would I be better of splitting the 4TB SSD into 2 2TB drives or adding another (bigger?) NVME drive? Does it matter from a system performance perspective?
yep
NVMe drives are faster than SATA drives so if it is just Space i would stay with the 4 TB SSD
it is always easier to add SSD after the fact the NVMe Drive are mounted on the Motherboard
looks like the Local Umart warranty is a better option for you

order placed
Ordered this morning. Had to change some parts because of stock availability. Was surprised at how much part pricing and availability changes around. Would have been nice if GPU pricing dropped but no joy there.
Below is what I ended up with. Fingers crossed it serves as well as my last rig which has been a solid trooper. The new rig will definitely be more shiny ;)
Thanks heaps Robag for the advice.
nice
hmmm i may have to think about my bits now

New PC so shiny
Received the new rig. The build is super tidy, very happy with it. So much RBG… think I’ll have to start gaming in sunnies :)
