why u bought Amd ryzen 7 2700x ? why not intel CPU ? ryzen 7 2700x is only PCIe 16x so ur cards will be running on x8 x8 not x16 x16 i will say bad desicion on CPU and good for GPU´z.

Bro when you put rtx2080 through nvlink there is no need for a 3.0 pcie

i am waiting on 3600X & Z490 will upgrade to that as soon as it comes out + i had an 8700K before....this cpu is better with me in photoshop, rendering and winraring which i do a lot. gaming yes sometimes...
multitasking is another thing to...where ryzen performs better than my previous cpu.

Oh what a pity I will be in Islamabad and Lahore for the whole visit

I am looking forward to your impressions with the speakers though

I am using the KEF LS50 wireless with REL T9i Subwoofer and ALO Cascade for headphones

I had these ones previously, ill post my drawing room shortly....got the iq9 there!

 

[xenmus]

Nice setup. Did you get those kefs from here? And for how much?
I was looking into buying these in the future but too bad i can't listen to them before buying these online.

 

[TheLivingFlesh]

Here is my drawing room had the KEf iq9 then put them in another room and using polk audio for the drawing room now
the pc is for movies songs only....went with the samsung qled later on

 

[TheLivingFlesh]

and these are inbound in 3 days inshallah

 

[UzairAhmed]

Well that's a 3000£ setup but its worth every penny to be honest considering they are active speakers so no need for a dedicated amp/dac to run these to their best i use macbook with usb c to usb b cable and KEF app for wifi streaming from Tidal or local storage on my phone.

Rel subwoofers are amazing when it comes to music as well so you ll be hard pressed to get anything better for 3000£

If you can score both the KEF and REL for around 500K including shipping, taxes etc i'd say go for it the sound quality is much more worth it

Nice it seems like you've changed quite a lot there as well. I have found KEF to be amazing at their asking price for whatever speakers they are selling I might get Q950 floor standing ones later down the road but to be honest i have yet to find any fault with the LS50 W

soul note set at a price of $2000 per piece....2 monos are at 4000 while the pre is at 2000...thats $6000 and the only thing i heard near to that was mcintosh c500t with c500 (pre amp and power).
You cant go wrong with soulnote at 6000$ it beats other modules starting at 10000$....pair them up with 800 series diamond. that is my next goal inshallah. the diamond series of bowers and wilkson

 

[UzairAhmed]

Hahaha make it happen and I will come to Karachi to listen it in person.

Yes active loudspeakers are inherently better than passive speakers unless you spend an insane amount of money on amp/dac. Only bad thing about them is when the amp dies you're screwed.
500k is too much lol, Ill skip the REL subwoofer and use them with the lsr310s subwoofer if i ever get the ls50w.
