4090+7800x3d

#

Also don’t buy a gaming desk

#

Get ikea alex drawers and a countertop

static bridge
#

wouldnt a 4090 be overkill?

verbal heart
#

Depends what you wanna do with the pc

#

What games do you play?

#

And what resolution do you want/play at

#

youll get a good 1440p high refresh rate experience

#

with a 4090

#

and you also get 24gb of vram

verbal heart
#

About $2000 left over for peripherals

daring sentinel
#

i would recommend this monitor

verbal heart
daring sentinel
#

he wants 1440p tho

#

1440p high refresh rate
very nice for games like r6s

verbal heart
#

$1000 on a 1440p monitor is dumb

daring sentinel
#

he has the moneywhoa

#

just my recommendation

#

👍

verbal heart
#

It’s curved so it’s better

#

It’s almost 4K

daring sentinel
#

fair

verbal heart
#

For the desk the Karlby countertop is $250 and alex drawers are $100 each so thats 450 for the desk

#

So about 750 for everything else

#

For headset I’d get the Razer Kraken V3

static bridge
#

I do need two monitors

daring sentinel
#

then i would suggest the m27q

#

27" 1440p 165hz/ 170hz oc g sync compatible

static bridge
#

One monitor will be nirmal and the other will be set up vertically

#

Also should I build this thing myself?

#

What website should I get stuff from?

I have a friend that has but he lives 8 hours away

daring sentinel
#

any system retailers near you?
sometimes pc shops will take your pc parts and assemble it into a pc for a build fee

static bridge
#

Let me look

#

Im not seeing any @daring sentinel

daring sentinel
#

bruh

static bridge
#

Closest one is 2.5hrs

#

thats just how texas is though

daring sentinel
#

how about a micro center

#

since youre in the us

#

they are really good for anything pc related

#

they can easily help you assemble your pc

static bridge
#

It might just be worth me driving over there to them

daring sentinel
#

ye

verbal heart

#

Kind of want an all white PC with RGB

wind blade
#

Don’t like saying my age online but it might help

#

prebuilts are meh

#

and for me are always a last resort

#

building pcs is building lego with screwdrivers tbh

static bridge
rare cargo
#

ohhhh

#

for keyboard you can get a halo75

#

its a really good option

#

good for the price

#

good sounding

#

good.

#

140$

#

for the mouse it can be a g502 x plus or a g pro x wireless

wind blade
rare cargo
#

1000w isnt necessary

#

with 850w you're okay for that build

#

the keyboard is meh

#

the mouse is good ig but i recomed way more a logitech one

#

(not being biased, its just because of aesthetics etc)

#

and razer headsets arent so great

#

also could be a lt720 instead of ls720

#

so lemme fix that up rq

languid barn
#

well what you should do is wire me the money and ill spend it for you that is the real solution

rare cargo
#

why does z5 neo not have white variants of ram wtf

#

the mouse can be switched to a g pro x superlight

#

if you'd like

#

monitors i actually have zero idea at this point because you need a bit of budget left for a desk

#

for keyboard you should not get like gaming brands

#

instead get keyboard brands

#

such as NuPhy, with the halo75/65/96 and the air75/65/96

#

and others

#

..psst.. the halo75 comes with anime girl stickers on the box KEKW

#

thoughts?

verbal heart
wind blade
#

It seems like you’re a big phanteks fan

static bridge
#

i just liked the name i thought it was clever

wind blade
#

Ud90 is great

wind blade
#

Go with an aio cooler particularly a ls720se white

wind blade
celest fractal
#

viper ultimate mouse and some keychron kbd (not sure which one)

#

if u wanna get a baller desk get the asus standing one from ikea its actually pretty good

#

monitors id say get an m27 or the lg oled 1440p one

#

alienware if u want uw

#

4k id go m28

wind blade
#

Go 4k

#

If I were you I’d go 4k or reduce the budget by $3000

rare cargo
#

and for monitor recommendations get another one

celest fractal
#

o11 doesnt come with fans btw

daring sentinel
#

montech air 903 max is a good case

#

comes with fans

rare cargo
#

wtf

#

lemme add some fans there rq

#

wtf it really doesnt come with fans

#

i thought it did

#

mandela effect shit

#

Hey dom

#

You want a beast?

static bridge
#

yes?

thin palm
#

no regrets whatsoever

#

also this is the result

#

i paid around 5,7-5,9k CAD TAX included so in usd u can do a simple convert

#

and ull see how much it will cost u

#

but idk if ur into rgb or not

#

if not, i can create u the best sleeper build ever

#

i have some ideas with that

verbal heart
thin palm
#

for the same performance

#

i decided to not go with the most brandy being crucial samsung and others

#

they are a total rip off

#

fk that

#

im getting same or better transfer write/read speeds with ps5 m.2 ssd

verbal heart
#

Okay

#

Does it have dram cache?

thin palm
#

idk i didnt inform myself about that

#

u can read info on it on any site ig

verbal heart
#

Just checked and it doesn’t

thin palm
#

what does that implicate?

#

idk what dram cache is

verbal heart
#

Slower write speeds I think

thin palm
#

oh no worries

#

i dont think the diff is big

#

trust me

verbal heart
#

Cause it has to use your systems ram

thin palm
#

all is flawless i tested games pc opens in 6 seconds from sleep mode

verbal heart
#

Okay

thin palm
#

nah my system ram is so strong 64 gb too

#

no worries on that side

verbal heart
#

4 or 2 sticks?

thin palm
#

2x32 white ❤️

#

planning on getting 2x32 more

verbal heart
#

Okay

thin palm
#

128 gb

verbal heart
thin palm
#

but umm should i disable XMP before i install new ram?

#

Yes. i checked for 5h best parts for my pc

#

and i saw that not only msi meg z790 edge has no issues with compatibility

#

but also performs as a beast when it comes to OC

#

couldn't say the same about my friend that has msi tomahawk z790

#

he couldnt enable his xmp cause he gets instant blue screen of death

#

also he has a cl36 memory so idk if that helps

#

me cl30

#

Anyways my ram stick was on QVL list of motherboard manufacturer list

#

QVL meaning qualified vendor list meaning they were tested

#

and usually if they are tested and approved QVL u should in theory have 0 issues with compatibility

static bridge
#

Do yall think I should just get a prebuilt?

celest fractal
static bridge
#

Im a little intimiated building it on my own

thin palm
#

They build for u brother

#

Tho idk how much they charge but u will find out

#

But pre-built worst idea

#

It can arrive in rly bad shape

#

And I don't trust builders other than local ppl

#

They rush build like an automated milk machine

#

Ofc errors will arive

#

They won't refund u if it comes damaged btw

#

No responsibility

Try watching a video now

#

You’ll see how not complicated it is

thin palm

#

You said “you don’t have to be lost nvidia is nice” when you only researched for 5 hours

rare cargo
#

nvidia is not worth it

#

of course they have the best performance

#

but they charge

#

immense quantities

#

of money

#

amd literally made a gpu thats slightly worse than the 4090

#

yet costs

#

up to 1000 dollars less

#

500 dollars less sometimes

#

its depending on model, price may vary

#

but you still can get a nice 3000$ 4090 and 7800x3d build (of course if you dont count peripherals and others on your pC)

thin palm
#

Also

#

The thing I hate with these new gpus is that they all have fan coil whine noise

#

Sure it's not loud but enough to annoy

wind blade
#

I’m sorry but it’s not

thin palm
#

Tyvm

thin palm
wind blade
#

$1000 7900 xtx > $1200 4080

thin palm
#

No thx

#

Not looking to save $

wind blade
#

It’s not opinion it’s obvious facts

wind blade
thin palm
#

Big af hides huge chunk of mb, requires 600 w 12hvpwr psu cable and for 15-30 fps gain vs 4080, I said fk it

#

Also price difference 800$.

wind blade
#

The gpus come with adapters for 12hvpwr

thin palm
#

Not my asus tuf!

wind blade
#

It doesn’t require 600 watts

#

Unless you want two

thin palm
#

No ik only 320w

#

But 4090

#

Spikes to 500+

#

If u buy oc version

#

I read on Google beforehand

wind blade
#

At very most it’s 400

#

An 850 watt psu can handle it

thin palm
#

Usd but cad more, also depends if u want white or black variants

#

Yes 1kw is enough

#

Even 850 but that's on the edge

#

400W for 4090?

#

Boy idk who lied to u

rare cargo
#

also

#

900-1000 dollar 7900xtx beats the 4080 which is almost always 1200$

#

and even if you manage to find the 4080 for like 900 dollars

#

the same price 7900xtx

#

beats the 4080 in PERFORMANCE

celest fractal
#

good as a slightly cheaper cuda/blender card than 4090 and thats it

#

xtx>>

thin palm
#

Nah

#

Amd and Radeon for cheap ppl

#

I don't need that

rare cargo
#

then. why. did. you. get. a. 4080. instead. of. a 4090

thin palm
#

Reasons stated above

wind blade
wind blade
#

That’s why you went nvidia

#

And got a 4080 for 1650 CAD 😂

verbal heart
wind blade
#

That’s what I’m saying!
