No money to buy whole pc, so Ayam buy mb and RAM first.


Although an older model, but this one has never been opened before.


Basic antenna, m.2 screws, cable label stickers, 1 sata cable, and hand guides.


Main reason I choose this mb is because of the chipset heatsink. Big and thick.


The regulator heatsink also very impressive, not some cheap plastic cover.


Not going to overclock, so the 2*4+4 auxiliary power seems excessive for a 65w tdp cpu that I'm gonna install.


Although I don't plan to use m.2, but I'm glad that the 2nd slot is not directly behind gpu.


6 fan ports including cpu, but I'm not going to install casing fans at all.


Standard 2*usb2.0, 1 usb3.0/3.2, 1type c.


4*sata, think I'm going to buy 1 4tb SSD.


Slightly better audio.


2argb, but not going to use it.


All heatsinks are screwed in instead of flimsy plastic clips.

The reason I choose this over the mortar wifi II is because it's slightly cheaper with just less 1 m.2 that I'm not going to use anyway.

Damage below 1400

Bought these rams specifically following the qvl, so no compatibility issue at all.

For those who is considering buying the updated version of mortar wifi II.

Difference between B760m mortar wifi and B760m mortar wifi ii
Copilot
The MSI MAG B760M MORTAR WIFI II is an updated version of the original B760M MORTAR WIFI motherboard. Here are some key differences:

Support for Latest Processors: The B760M MORTAR WIFI II supports Intel® 14th/13th/12th Gen processors, while the original may not support the latest generations1.
Memory Compatibility: The B760M MORTAR WIFI II supports DDR5 memory up to 7800+ (OC) MHz, which is higher than the original version1.
Power Design: It features a 12+1+1 Duet Rail Power System with 75A SPS, providing a robust power delivery for high-performance CPUs1.
PCIe 5.0 Slot: The newer version includes a PCIe 5.0 slot, offering higher bandwidth for the latest GPUs and SSDs1.
Thermal Solutions: The B760M MORTAR WIFI II comes with an extended heatsink design, M.2 Shield Frozr, and higher quality thermal pads for better cooling performance1.
These enhancements make the B760M MORTAR WIFI II a more future-proof option, especially if you’re planning to use the latest hardware components. For detailed specifications, it’s always best to check the manufacturer’s official product pages or user manuals

My current 4770 build is mainly 2nd hand also,. Back then don't have worries of buying mining parts.

It can support.

2023 gold roi is 4.09%. Slightly better than kdi saving. I put it in kdi instead for easier withdrawal and no fees.

Since when cannot post pics?

I can buy 1 short if I want to, but I already know near future releases will not affect my build plan.

I put in kdi. Easy to withdraw, got 4%.

Slightly cheaper, don't have newer feature that I don't use.

Consider my current pc is still 4770, I think I'm good.

You don't suck at it. You mouth is very moist. It might damage the electronic components.

Most people who are not good at it is simply they don't have enough interest in this. Computer is initially marketed to be user friendly to begin with. I've seen 6 years old child assemble pc before. If you really like to do it, I'm sure it will be easy after some youtube videos.

Can, just that initially only has 13th gen. If you visit cpu compatibility page of the mb, it listed 14th Gen as well.

I'm not going to use nvme. Also not going to install casing fans.

Prevents Overheating: Proper cooling ensures that the chipset does not overheat, which can lead to thermal throttling or reduced performance.

Stable Operation: Maintaining a cool chipset helps in keeping the operation stable, avoiding unexpected crashes or system instability.

Increases Component Longevity: Cooler temperatures can extend the lifespan of the chipset and other nearby components by reducing the stress caused by heat.

Protects Other Components: By keeping the chipset cool, you also protect other components from the potential heat spill-over, which could otherwise affect their performance and longevity.

Supports Overclocking: If you’re interested in overclocking, a cool chipset is essential as it allows for higher performance without the risk of overheating.

Even though modern chipsets are designed to operate efficiently with minimal cooling, ensuring they have adequate cooling can enhance the system’s performance and reliability over time. It’s a small investment that can have a significant impact on your computer’s health and efficiency

The components I have choosen are already in the market for sometime. Their defact rate, although I don't have any official records, is quite low in my own experience. Also, I have other pc parts that I can use to test it first.

The red label is a good choice. If I buy a mechanical HDD now, that would be my choice as well. I aim to buy a 4tb sata SSD for this build.

If true also, announce only. Not release. Usually won't be at this time. I suspect they might release close to rtx5000 announce if release this year.

The mb is eol. Later might not be able to get. I can buy 1 shot now, but I want to drag it out so that I won't have a big hole in my account in case got emergency.

The upgrade frequency is on you. I'm still on my 4770 and gtx1080. Still maxing the settings on the games I'm playing.
