especially the younger they are

#

also look at his name

cedar herald
#

not bad

calm forge
#

lmao

deep scroll
#

It needs a CPU cooler, what to get? 😛

slim scaffold
#

a cooler

calm forge
#

you could get a 212 evo

deep scroll
#

I'm not seeing anything for a 212 evo

slim scaffold
#

idk if this is the exact one

crimson scroll
#

3100 comes with a stock cooler...

#

i ran my 2600 with a stock cooler for two years, the 3100 will be adequately cooled by the wraith stealth

cedar herald
#

u think i can oc with wraith stealth if i run the fan up to max all the time irdc abt noise

deep scroll
#

Aight, stock it is

crimson scroll
#

i OC'd my 2600 on the wraith

#

it got a bit hot but i didn't push it a ton

cedar herald
#

can i push a 3600 to 4.5 ghz

#

or more on wraith stealth

crimson scroll
#

probably not

cedar herald
#

oof

#

hb the wraith spire and 3600X

crimson scroll
#

...no

calm forge
#

hi

tacit socket
#

does anybody recomend a good mobo for a ryzen 5 3600

calm forge
#

motherboard

crimson scroll
#

there's plenty

#

I would look at hardware unboxed's b550 list on youtube

gilded frost
#

B550 Pro 4?

devout wolf
#

pro4 is a bit on the meh side especially the IO

#

somehow the microATX one has better IO than the ATX one

gilded frost
#

Asus has a really nice looking, and good speced/reviewed B550-A Board.

Around 6 3.0 usb’s, gigabit lan, etc on the iO
Everything else about it is pretty darn good, not perfect but good.
But, it’ll cost you $180 bucks.

#

Bunch of really good ones, 40 bucks off a western digital blue ssd, 20 off a case, etc.

calm forge
#

99 cents off

tacit socket
#

such good deal

tacit socket
#

should i buy the msi mag b550m mortar or the msi b550-a pro

gilded frost
#

None of them

tacit socket
#

well do u know any b550 boards for around 150 dollars

gilded frost
#

Would you go with a $170

tacit socket
#

maybe

gilded frost
#

We're an anti MSI cult here in Steel Series discord

tacit socket
#

ok

gilded frost
#

What are you using your system for actually?

tacit socket
#

mainly gaming school might do some light streaming

gilded frost
#

Do you have a system budget?

tacit socket
#

yea around 1000 dollars

gilded frost
#

You have one built already in pc part picker right?

tacit socket
gilded frost
#

The ryzen 5 has a stock cooler

tacit socket
#

ik

gilded frost
#

If you're going to be over clocking that much just get an AIO?

tacit socket
#

do u suggest ant AIO around the $90 price

#

any

gilded frost
#

There's one for 72

#

Cooler Master MASTERLIQUID ML240L RGB V2 65.59 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

tacit socket
#

ok

gilded frost
#

Actually, what do you intend on over clocking too? an AIO for a Ryzen 5 is semi ridiculous

tacit socket
#

and i could get the mobo u suggested cuz the cooler is cheaper

#

im waiting on zen 3

gilded frost
#

You're going to go over your budget then

#

Are you going with a lot of rgb in your system that's visible?

tacit socket
#

nah

gilded frost
#

Drop the ram for some T-Vulcan 16 gb kit

tacit socket
#

ok and then what

#

what memory speed

gilded frost
#

What games do you plan on playing?

#

3200/3600 doesn't really matter. I would actually go for the G.Skill rip jaws in black, its $61

tacit socket
#

i plan on playing r6 and apex

gilded frost
#

No warzone right? lol

orchid geyser
#

Ohhhhhh yessssss dadddyyy

tacit socket
#

some warzone maybe

gilded frost
#

You might want to get a 500 gb ssd

#

m.2 instead of sata

#

You can drop it for the Crucial P1 500 gb M.2

tacit socket
#

but isnt a 500gb m.2 expensive

gilded frost
#

50 bucks?

tacit socket
#

oh then should i lower anything else

gilded frost
#

The case could be cheaper for the same airflow

#

Where are you putting your case

tacit socket
#

on the floor

gilded frost
#

I know of a $55 case, more then airflow, but it has huge branding on the side

tacit socket
#

brb

gilded frost
#

4 rgb fans, though they aren't controllable

tacit socket
#

so whats the case called

gilded frost
#

Montech x1 white/black mesh case

#

Have some other's aswell if you don't like it, you'll just be paying more

tacit socket
#

ok i will see

gilded frost
#

Just realized how much you're spending on the graphics card

#

You could save almost 50 bucks

tacit socket
#

on what card

gilded frost
#

5600XT

#

I don't want to go with MSI but they started selling these a while ago

#

600 Watt power supply is a bit much unless you plan on upgrading in the future?

tacit socket
#

yea im planning on that

gilded frost
#

How big of an upgrade? cpu, gpu, ram, everything or only a few things?

tacit socket
#

prob cpu and gpu

gilded frost
#

Might as well stay at 600 then

static pecan
#

You don't need such a beefy cooler for a 3600.

I would personally avoid MSI just because they're a scummy company and I wouldn't want to support that

You can grab a Sapphire 5600XT for the same price as the MSI card. There are also other 5600XTs from Gigabyte and XFX that are cheaper than MSI card as well @tacit socket

tacit socket
#

@static pecan im using a sapphire cooler

gilded frost
#

MSI has them 20 bucks off

#

around 260 for it

static pecan
#

Oh wait nvm you have a sapphire listed lmao

#

my b

gilded frost
#

What are you going to use the 2 tb hd for?

tacit socket
#

to hold my files for stuff

#

and maybe some smaller games i wont play as much

gilded frost
#

Does semi modular/non modular matter to you?

cedar herald
#

yo if u r building a 1k pc grab the 3070 asap on thursday setup a bot if u have to

static pecan
#

Lol nice joke

gilded frost
#

Yeah I was going to say

cedar herald
#

lmao

gilded frost
#

People have hundreds of those things

tacit socket
#

no

static pecan
#

From what I've read retailers ordered like 2 thousand cards and only got about 200

#

This launch is going to be just as bad as the 3080 ad 3090 lol

gilded frost
#

Okay , you could probably get a cheaper power supply at the same efficiency

tacit socket
#

where did u find the x1 cuz i cant find it @gilded frost

gilded frost
#

Amazon

#

you have around 70 bucks to work with

tacit socket
#

yea

#

does anyone know a good cooler for the 3600 around $70

gilded frost
#

Yeah the master liquid

tacit socket
#

yea i have that rn

gilded frost
#

oh that's wierd they made the montech case and the AIO's non compatible

#

Odd, since it's made for 240 on 2 ends

tacit socket
#

thats without the cooler oops

gilded frost
static pecan
#

The 3600 comes with a good stock cooler. If you're planning to upgrade to a higher tier CPU in the future, wait until you upgrade the CPU before buying a different cooler

#

You're just throwing money away that could be spent on something else by buying a different cooler

#

The Wraith cooler with the 3600 can also handle a modest OC

tacit socket
#

yea i guesss that too

gilded frost
#

it's 70 bucks dude, make your mind up lol

static pecan
#

If you don't OC then the Wraith will be more than enough to keep temps low

gilded frost
#

^

#

Tried to say that before

tacit socket
gilded frost
static pecan
#

If you care about aesthetics I would go with a different PSU because A) the ketchup and mustard cables look bad and B) Thermaltake PSUs are pretty "meh" to begin with @tacit socket

tacit socket
#

ok

gilded frost
#

Yeah The cheapest one has the crappy cables so i went a few bucks more to get the black ones

static pecan
#

semi-modular would be fine and most should come with sleeved cables

gilded frost
#

since most of your components are black, it'll fit iin

static pecan
#

Other than the PSU it's a pretty solid system overall

gilded frost
#

I don't know if aesthetics are his biggest thing, he is putting the case on the floor

#

lol

tacit socket
#

thx a lot guys for helping me on my list gtg

gilded frost
#

Take care

static pecan
#

Np my dude

crimson scroll
#

yuck

#

strix boards

tall cove
#

2080 FE for 330 bid on ebay

#

might do it lowkey just because

calm forge
#

lmao

#

the aorus 2080ti extreme is slightly better than the 3070 fe

#

because it comes with a factory overclock lmao

noble oak
#

Not sure if I asked this already but should I get an 2070 super in a few weeks since the 3070 will be out of stock so should I do it? Ping me pls

calm forge
#

if you're getting the 2070 in a few weeks and considering getting the 3070

#

just pray that the 3070 will have better availability by then

#

and if you can't get the 3070 by then just wait, or just buy the card.

noble oak
#

Yeah since I’m getting my pc on the day of the 3070 launch

calm forge
#

why does the titan rtx have a usb c port

#

that doesnt mean you should just ping them randomly

static pecan
#

@calm forge VR

#

that's the reason for the USB C port lol

calm forge
#

oh

#

lol

static pecan
#

A couple VR headsets from a few years back used USB C as passthrough I think so they added USB ports to the new GPUs but then the USB C on VR headsets kinda faded away so they aren't there this generation

#

Although I think the RX6000 series has them

calm forge
#

ohh

static pecan
#

At least the render they showed in Fortnite awhile back had USB C on the IO I think

calm forge
#

hm

#

wait

#

does the usb c supply power

cedar herald
#

no it may be thunderbolt display

peak ridge
#

why ping

calm forge
#

probably thunderbolt

peak ridge
#

ima be steelseries gang soon 😎

calm forge
#

pog

crimson scroll
#

Usb c can supply power, yes

calm forge
#

so i can charge the dualsense using the usb port on the gpu

crimson scroll
#

Uh... Why

calm forge
#

idk

#

it was just a randon thought

#

that popped up in my mind

crimson scroll
#

The thing about USB c

#

What is does is based on the host and device telling it what to do

#

That's why it can act as power, display, data transfer

#

Assuming it supports power delivery, alternate mode, etc.

#

Type C form factor doesn't actually require every protocol

#

Usb naming and requirements is such a mess

calm forge
#

lol

ancient hamlet
#

@ancient hamlet
@noble oak ?

#

you need something?

lean quarry
#

Is the rtx 3080 worth 300 more dollars then the rtx 3070?

ancient hamlet
#

bruh

gilded frost
#

You'll get a more noticeable upgrade from any 20 series card or the 3070 to the 3080 then a 3080 to a 3090.

cedar herald
#

or 6900

#

dont forget

#

6900

fierce plaza
#

Not sure if I asked this already but should I get an 2070 super in a few weeks since the 3070 will be out of stock so should I do it? Ping me pls
@noble oak get a 3070 if you can, wait if u must, its slighty better than a 2080 ti for the price of a 2070. its just better

gilded frost
#

Good luck getting one, they'll be sold out in a couple minutes

noble oak
#

Yeah uh but I’m getting my pc on the day of the 3070 launch

#

And I’m going in the afternoon

#

Which is bad because it’s prob sold out already

cedar herald
#

just order online at midnight

gilded frost
#

not going to get around the bots

#

people have spent a month coding em\

calm forge
#

just use autoclicker

#

easy peasy

cedar herald
#

not as effective as a bot

#

but u could pull it off

crimson scroll
#

explain how an autoclicker will help you

noble oak
#

Lol

crimson scroll
#

even if you set one with predefined locations, you still need to manually enter all your information

#

you're never going to be faster than a bot that way

noble oak
#

They just use bots that auto fill in their information and it can do it almost instantly

crimson scroll
#

if you get one with an autoclicker, you probably would have gotten one without it

noble oak
#

Damn the 3070 launch is in a Thursday

#

Skipping school I guess

#

You might also get it later this year tho

#

Who needs knowledge when you get knowledge form Linus tech tips

crimson scroll
#

that doesn't make any sense

#

then you still need knowledge? doesn't matter where you're getting it from

noble oak
#

Yeah

#

Do you know where I can get a case that looks like a microwave

crimson scroll
#

you could mod a microwave

calm forge
#

i think one got featured on bitwit's roasting pcs video

noble oak
#

Newegg is bullying me again why is the 2070 supers 600 bucks

#

Is it normal that it’s supposed to be this high

#

It's a bit too high

#

not a whole lot tho

#

Like 75 bux overpriced or so

foggy torrent
#

can someone tell me a good gpu?

calm forge
#

define good

noble oak
#

You want “good” “good good” or “very good”

foggy torrent
#

just good

calm forge
#

no-

foggy torrent
#

for a starter

noble oak
#

At what price

foggy torrent
#

1000 max

noble oak
#

For only the cpu?

foggy torrent
#

sure

noble oak
#

Gpu*

crimson scroll
#

what's your total budget

noble oak
#

Cuz if you get a gpu of 1k your pc will prob be around 2k

crimson scroll
#

and what are you doing with the system

noble oak
#

He’s being bombarded with questions lmao

calm forge
#

that are necessary

noble oak
#

Yeah ik

foggy torrent
#

i wanna stream do yt and play fn fall guys csgo overwatch

noble oak
#

But what's your total budget

foggy torrent
#

4000

crimson scroll
#

fortnite, fall guys, csgo, and overwatch are all esports titles

#

well, not fall guys

noble oak
#

Yeah it kinda died

crimson scroll
#

but that is a ridiculous budget unless you're going for 4k 144hz

#

save your money

foggy torrent
#

hmm should i spend less on pc more on setup?

noble oak
#

Well thats a whole lotta cash, I would go for the 3080 and maybe even 3090

crimson scroll
#

you can get a great pc for 1k that will run those titles just fine

foggy torrent
#

ok

noble oak
#

And stream them*

#

Wait total budget 4K then 3k in pc and 1k in everything else

crimson scroll
#

streaming is easy now, just throw it all on the gpu

#

both nvenc and the amd equivalent are good enough

#

unless you're a professional streamer, then you get a second pc with capture card

foggy torrent
#

ok

crimson scroll
#

also, how old are you? seem young to be dropping 4k on a pc

noble oak
#

Did you assume his age or something

crimson scroll
#

the mannerisms they have

foggy torrent
#

15

crimson scroll
#

no commas, the games they want to play, the way they talked about streaming and youtube

noble oak
#

Well normal age for streaming

crimson scroll
#

also the fact that they wanted to drop 4k

foggy torrent
#

should i just use 1k?

crimson scroll
#

how much money do you actually have available

foggy torrent
#

2.5k about

crimson scroll
#

so why were you asking for something that's 60% over budget

#

money management, people

foggy torrent
#

just incase if i work hard enough or more parts i should consider

crimson scroll
#

if i were you, i'd spend around 1-1.3k on the pc

foggy torrent
#

ok

crimson scroll
#

save the other half, put it in a CD or something

foggy torrent
#

k

crimson scroll
#

don't spend all your money

foggy torrent
#

ok

#

thanks

calm forge
#

also how much are you planning to spend on peripherals and whatnot

noble oak
#

I think he left

calm forge
#

anyways how do you stream in hd

noble oak
#

Idk

crimson scroll
#

depends on what software you use

calm forge
#

like 720p

#

im using streamlabs obs rn

noble oak
#

Oh well bye

calm forge
#

i get 230 mbs

#

bitrate is all set up

#

but when i stream its in sd

crimson scroll
#

i'm not familiar with streamlabs but for obs, you go into settings->video

#

i assume it's similar for streamlabs obs

calm forge
#

yeah ill probably switch to regular obs

crimson scroll
#

you don't have to switch to obs...

calm forge
#

nah i was planning to neither way

#

i'm not familiar with streamlabs but for obs, you go into settings->video
so uh

gilded frost
#

A ryzen 7, 32 gb ram , 4 tb hdd, 1 tb ssd, 3080, 750 watt power supply, and a 240mm AIO will be perfect for it, that'll probably be around 1k-1.5k

#

240 hz monitors are being sold for around $250 a pop

#

16 gb will do you just fine anyway

crimson scroll
#

eh

gilded frost
#

Maybe not anymore on second though lol

calm forge
#

lol

tawny blaze
#

aparently my motherboard doesnt support bluetooth. :/
i didnt do enough research lol
whats a good motherboard, capable of those with overclocking, etc.?

50-300$

crimson scroll
#

that is both a very large range of price and also a very vague question

#

you need to specify what chipset/platform/cpu you're looking for

devout wolf
#

well if it doesn't support bluetooth then just get a dongle lol

gilded frost
#

If a motherboard doesn’t support bluetooth in 2020 then it can’t really be a great mobo to begin with

devout wolf
#

that’s like 90% of mobos...

cedar herald
#

yaya 6900 annnouncement in 4 hrs

tacit socket
#

damm already

cedar herald
#

is this a good list

static pecan
#

Why a 3800X instead of a 5800X?

cedar herald
#

oops

#

ya i put that price

#

didnt rename

#

ya am going 5800x

#

thats y i put 450 for the 3800x

static pecan
#

That's what I thought just wanted to make sure lol

devout wolf
#

maybe a cheaper ssd and a case where the extra fans would actually make a difference

#

and a better psu for 30 series

#

like antec earthwatts gold pro

cedar herald
#

k

#

what case do u recommend

#

will a 650w psu suffice

#

is this case good

#

corsair 275r airflow any good?

devout wolf
#

not for the price

#

and the cylon sucks too

dude im pumped for the amd 6000 series

cedar herald
#

thx

crimson scroll
#

honestly

#

the rx6000 shrouds look ugly

#

but at least it's not blower

#

guaranteed 2ghz clock, interesting

#

wonder if they ran their own nvidia benchmarks or just used nvidia's numbers

#

gray is the 3080

#

and basically they're catching up to where nvidia is on ray tracing/dlss

#

$650, not bad. Now we see what actual performance is like

static pecan
#

And availability

crimson scroll
#

and the 3070 against the 6800

#

i didn't check any 3070 reviews yet

static pecan
#

3070 is basically 97% of a 2080TI

#

I watched a bunch of reviews yesterday

crimson scroll
#

well

#

at $500 vs $579, i guess we'll see

static pecan
#

Yeah

crimson scroll
#

let me guess, the 6900xt competes with the 3090

static pecan
#

🤯 bro no way

#

lol

crimson scroll
#

naming scheme is on point at least

#

makes it easy for us

static pecan
#

Yee

crimson scroll
#

rage mode + smart access memory, good marketing thing for amd

#

buy both amd cpu and gpu and benefit!

#

not sure how much real world performance that matters but

#

also, if those benchmarks are true, the 3090 is dead for gamers

static pecan
#

Lmao they mentioned the smaller card footprint

crimson scroll
#

the 24gb for the 3090 will help certain workloads

#

but not for gaming

#

and at $500 more...ouch

#

i do wonder if the productivity performance is good, they don't mention it at all

static pecan
#

The $80 price bump for the 6800 over the 3070 is an interesting move

crimson scroll
#

i don't mind that considering the 6800 supposedly beats out the 2080ti handily

#

i do wish they had a cheaper option

#

it'll probably release later but w/e

static pecan
#

True, in the benchmarks I saw of the 3070 it never really beat the 2080TI in anything it was more of a 2080TI for $500 instead of $1200

bold drum
#

just watched the amd

#

thing

static pecan
#

So if the 6800 can actually beat the 2080TI then that $80 would be worth it

crimson scroll
#

well

bold drum
#

the new amd cards are pretty good

calm forge
crimson scroll
#

it needs to beat it by more than a couple of percentage points

static pecan
#

Obviously

bold drum
#

well ive been waiting for an amd card

#

i wasnt really planning to get a 30 series

crimson scroll
#

keep waiting

static pecan
#

Honestly i mostly just care how it competes against the 3070 more than how much it beats a 2080TI

crimson scroll
#

no buying until benchmarks

#

unless you're filthy rich

bold drum
#

kinda but i wanna wait for benchmarks too

#

as well as how well it works with the new cpu as welll

#

cant believe they bought Xilinx very good aquisition

static pecan
#

I budgeted out $500 for a new GPU for my next-gen build so we'll have to wait and see if the 6800 is an all around winner against the 3070 for me

#

And I really don't want to buy Nivida again because I've never had good luck with their GPUs, but if they're actually offering the best for less in the 1440p market then...

bold drum
#

i will be getting the new ryzen cpu

crimson scroll
#

so definite

bold drum
#

im glad they have something to compete with the 3090 tho if they nvidia came out with the 3090 and amd didnt have it that would be sad but they probably all anticipated all of this

static pecan
#

5900X for me and either a 3070 or 6800

bold drum
#

hmmmm

deep scroll
#

How good exactly is the ryzen 3 3100?

crimson scroll
#

it's fine

#

you get what you pay for

#

meaning, not a complete waste of money if you just want to play some games

deep scroll
#

So, good for more mid to low-range gaming?

crimson scroll
#

yeah

#

you'd pair it with a lower end gpu

deep scroll
#

Would pairing it with the GTX 1650 super work out?

crimson scroll
#

yeah

deep scroll
#

Alright, thanks

bold drum
#

are samsung monitors good

empty gorge
#

should

calm forge
#

honestly just do what you want lol

#

with a 20k budget

empty gorge
#

or should I go with intel?

#

for case I'll be using obsidian 1000d

calm forge

500 on a case

#

oh boy

wait

#

is that considired expensive??

calm forge
#

.

static pecan

20k on a pc is more than overkill

uhm

#

for peripherals

#

youd be fine with thoes

ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme will be the motherboard

do you think this is good?

@empty gorge what cpu are you getting

Did amd just kill nvidea?

#

Nividea

calm forge
#

yeah

#

i think

#

lmao

no

gilded drift
#

guys, its good idea to sell rtx 2060 super and buy rtx 3070?

static pecan
#

Eh

crimson scroll
#

look at amd and intel

#

intel is still alive

static pecan
#

I'm just glad they actually compared against a 3080 in their slides instead of 20 series

crimson scroll
#

these things take time

#

they compared the 6800 to the 2080ti

#

guess there was nothing else to compare to in the 3000 series for them

calm forge
#

lol

#

yeah

static pecan
#

Guess they couldn't get their hands on a 3070 to make a direct comparison lol

calm forge
#

lol

#

nvidia announced their gpus first

#

amd launched them after

#

so they could benchmark their new gpus against nvidia's new gpus

#

kek

static pecan
#

Lel

gilded frost
#

They compared the 6900 to the 3090

crimson scroll
#

yeah

static pecan
#

yee

crimson scroll
#

which is good

#

closer numerical name comparisons

gilded frost
#

I mean either way amd is better for price/product

calm forge
#

that 6900xt lookin good

static pecan
#

The only thing AMD really killed is the 3090 for gaming

crimson scroll
#

a $50 undercut for about the same perf on the 3080, if true, is very nice

static pecan
#

The 24Gb of VRAM on the 3090 will benefit a lot of productivity workloads

#

Also true

gilded frost
#

How much is on the 6900

#

XR

#

XT*

static pecan
#

Which makes the price bump of the 6800 vs 3070 even more weird, but hey if the performance is there I will gladly pay $80 more

#

6900XT is $999

calm forge
#

yeah

#

cheaper by the 3090 by what

#

500?

gilded frost
#

Well there goes the 3090

#

I didnt expect the 3090 to go that far anyways

calm forge
#

lol

crimson scroll
#

these are first party benchmarks

calm forge
#

yeah

#

i just pray theyre somewhat accurate

crimson scroll
#

you ever get the feeling of 'yes men'

calm forge
#

lol

bold drum
#

i probably will get a amd card but i will wait for games to optimize for the new cards and then also see benchmarks for them

lean jackal
#

That graph shows me that for the games I play the 3090 is still better ... lol

tacit socket
#

should i get a gtx 1660 super or a rx 5600 xt

zealous terrace
#

depends on your use for it and money you want to spend

bold drum
#

that graph outpeforms the 3090 slightly and there are no drivers/optimizations made by amd or game devs so its gonna be hard to tell which ones better yet

zealous terrace
#

should i get a gtx 1660 super or a rx 5600 xt
@tacit socket like for rx its better for like overwatch or fortnite, but for nvidia its better for like csgo and gta, but for performance they

#

are kinda tied

#

rx is better in some aspects, and nvidia in other

#

s

tacit socket
#

i usaully play some rainbow or warzone

zealous terrace
#

hm

#

well since they're tied i guess its up to personal preference

#

if you're super techy you can use this to compare but i dont understand some of their lingo

bold drum
#

i play rdr sometimes would amd be better

zealous terrace
#

wahts rdr

#

oh read dead

#

red'

#

idk

#

at that point its kinda up to personal preference

#

but i use amd

#

and it works pretty well for its price

bold drum
#

i think rdr works better with vulkan idk and amd works good with vulkan as well

#

i favor amd over nvidia usualyl

static pecan
#

lmao userbench 😂

strong cape
#

anyone think it'd be a good idea to sell my month-old 2060 for a 3060? i mean it all comes down to pricing but i can't imagine it'd be much more

#

because i want to sell my 2060 before it becomes worthless, so i might as well upgrade and then i'd probably not need to worry about upgrading for a long long time after that

gilded drift
#

Guys, will it be ok if I put rtx 3070 instead of rtx 2060 super?

📎 unknown.png
strong cape
#

depends on what your power supply is

gilded drift
#

ATX 500W be quiet! System Power 9 CM, but i can buy 700w if it need

strong cape
#

yeah for an upgrade to a 3070 you should think about getting a 700w power supply, it is a little bit over whats necessary but the 30 series can have random spikes in power that can cause your computer to black out so that'd be a good idea

gilded drift
#

thanks

91 bucks for 16 gb ram. You should get 32 gb of ram to begin with, you're getting a ryzen 9 zen 5 and 6900xt, 16 won't "fit"

this is terrifying

#

91 bucks for 16 gb ram. You should get 32 gb of ram to begin with, you're getting a ryzen 9 zen 5 and 6900xt, 16 won't "fit"
@gilded frost gotta love zen 5, 16 gbs is enough for gaming, 32 is understandable if you're using it for work or video editing etc

gilded frost
#

Still, for 91 bucks, you can spend 20 bucks more and get 32

crimson scroll
#

uh

#

of the same speed and latency?

you really shouldn't be able to unless you're buying overpriced ram

@gilded frost why is it $120

hmm dark za 3600cl18 is $105, wonder if it can be tightened to cl16

cedar herald

bruh

get rog crosshair something something

#

@empty gorge

empty gorge
#

oh

#

but it doesn't support 256 gigabytes of ram

devout wolf
#

do you need 256gb???

#

if so, why are you going AM4 for supposedly HEDT requirements

#

every x570 supports 128gb of ram too

raw marsh

He doesn't, he's trolling lmao

empty gorge

How many times

do I have to say this

I'm not TROLLING

tall cove

what are the specs of the build that you wanna do man

empty gorge

ok let me write them

1 sec

He wants 2 2080tis in SLI and a 3090, with 256gigs of ram

Or at least that was yesterday

Literally cannot be serious

empty gorge

I'm trying to figure out a motherboard that fits these
1 ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce RTX 3090
1 5095x amd processor

#

is Asus ROG X570 Crosshair VIII good?

raw marsh
#

Just go on PC part picker don't spam repeat questions here lmaoo

empty gorge
#

this is the first time

#

I stated this motherboard

#

this is my first time building a pc

#

so please be more respectful Melker

raw marsh
#

You haven't exactly listened to my advice so far

empty gorge
#

What was your advice

#

sorry if I didn't listen

tough hazel
raw marsh
#

You don't need 256 gigs of ram, because most of it will be idle. It's a waste of money.

empty gorge
#

yes its reduced to 128

raw marsh
#

No

#

32 is more than enough

empty gorge
#

ok

#

but what motherboard

#

is the best

#

for the 5000 series

#

amd cpus

raw marsh
#

64 if you're feeling generous

empty gorge
#

ok

raw marsh
#

With 20 grand, idk maybe zenith 2 extreme. Use a thread ripper with it.

empty gorge
#

but is the ROG X570 Crosshair VIII good?

#

wait

#

is the threadripper

cedar herald
#

lmao

empty gorge
#

good at gaming

cedar herald
#

na

#

it is slow

#

the cores

#

it may be beefy

#

but not as fast

raw marsh
#

If you can afford a thread ripper go for it

cedar herald
#

actually i have a better idea

#

lmao

empty gorge
#

I can but if its slow for gaming

cedar herald
#

buy a case

empty gorge
#

it kills the whole point

cedar herald
#

that can hold 2 systems

raw marsh
#

It's not 'slow' lol

cedar herald
#

make a threadripper system

#

and a 5950x system

#

bam

raw marsh
#

Yeah lmao just build 2

#

Why tf not right

cedar herald
#

lol

empty gorge
#

but I only want one

raw marsh
#

Then build 1

#

But with your budget why not

empty gorge
#

I thought that the zenith would support the new 5095x

#

but it doesn't

cedar herald
#

OMDFG

#

X570 and B550 will support

empty gorge
#

but will trx support

#

it

cedar herald

realize that spending $10k in components now is a dumb idea considering you can get the same performance down the line if you spend half the money on new future components

calm forge

anything about video editing

yesterday you mentioned none of it

raw marsh
#

Can you send me an 8k sample video?

calm forge

calm forge
#

please say hardlines

empty gorge

and hardline tubing
