The GPU will be taking a trip to the oosa so its back to integrated graphics for a while now

Where did you get the RM450 from?
 
Before and after treatment
Moved fr 3200G temporary rig to 5800X based rig.
Before: AMD 3200G + Gigabyte A320 board + XPG 2666MHz RAM (8GB single stick) + stock cooler + Gigabyte 500Gb SSD + Cooler Master 450W PSU + Antec NX200 cabinet.

After: Ryzen 5800x+ CM Hyper 212 LED +ASUS TUF B450 Plus Gaming board + 2x8GB Corsair Vengeance 3600MHz RAM + Crucial MX500 500GB Sata SSD + Lian Li 215 case + GT710 GPU + Corsair TX650 PSU (on the way). Yet to add 1TB M.2 SSD and eagerly waiting for some reasonable pricing to buy a RTX 3000 series GPU. There is an imposter in this new setup. Can you guess which one is the imposter?
This is hooked up to LG 32" 2K UltraGear display.

Sooo....turns out two header on motherboard are called "power" headers and the fans always run at full speed. Suffice to say these deepcool fans are too loud at full speed.

Only one header on the motherboard is PWM and the minimum speed I can set in BIOS is a whopping 60% :arghh:

Got Fan Xpert2 software working and it slowed down the chassis fan header and CPU fans by A LOT. But the remaining two fans were still running full speed. This gave me an idea

Went out to SP road and got me some goodies

Hello DIY fan splitters

Connected and finally, all fans are running. Despite the PWM ability, eiother the motherboard or the software is controlling fan speed via DC mode, that means low voltage and the LEDs on the fan dont light up. Oh well nothing of value was lost anyway

Low temps and a ridiculously quiet PC, finally! The fan on the Coolermaster 850W was the sole reason I swapped it out to the RM450. Heck the aluminium chassis acts as an additional heatsink for the PSU and the case gets ridiculously hot around the PSU! Thankfully the PSU fan also doesnt spin up, helping with the quietness of the whole build.

Total expense : 24 rupees.
 
My new Thermaltake H200 has no grommets at the right places unlike the 10 year old Corsair 400R which is a very well thought/made cabinet ( I guess all corsair are) so did this to reduce vibrations everywhere. All fans and psu.

Edit: It is weird .. after doing this BSOD frequency has gone down. Infact none since I did this. Before this it used to average 3/4 per day and I used to curse AsRock for this. No clue what was causing it.
