p.s.
i would like to get 180 or greater fps on mc, rblx, gd, and gi
i already have an 12tb external storage, i will be using the 500gb ssd m.2 nvme to boot windows

gray valve
#

ditch the 7900x

#

a 7800x3d gives more fps

#

and go for a used 6800xt for 350-400 is you can find it

#

tldr the 7k ryzen chips are fairly bad except the 7800x3d, and the 7600/x

#

7600/x are almost identical

#

the 7700 is basically a match for the 5800x3d with additional of avx512

#

7900 is slower than a 7800x3d and even a 7700 in gaming

#

7950 loses or matches to a 12900k

#

7950x3d has only 8 3d cores and has allocation issues in windows tasks

#

7900x3d is a scam with only 6 3d cores and loses to a 7800x3d which has 8 3d cores

gray valve
#

same goes for 4060/4060 ti

#

ebay has had a good selection of used cards ever since mining died off

#

150 for 1080ti

#

200 for 2080 super

#

300 for 2080ti

#

350-400 for 6800 xt

#

400-450 for 3080 12gb/3080ti

#

500 for 3090 or 600 for 3090ti or a 6950 xt

pallid notch
#

i see

gray valve
#

if you are scared of buying used on ebay

#

it has buyer protection and refunds

pallid notch
#

i was planning to go to a computer store to buy those parts

gray valve
#

otherwise the best cards to buy new would be the 7800 xt/4070 super for higher resolution/higher frame rates

pallid notch
#

im only going to be using 1080p

👍

#

There’s a black one for a similar price but this one has more i/o

#

And better vrms

#

Also usb

#

idk what the fuck you’d use 14 usb ports for but

pallid notch
#

i mean

#

i do need a lot of usb ports

#

but not with that motherboard and i/o pls beta_particle

#

They’re at 1080p

#

@pallid notch you think you’re gonna upgrade to 1440p at some point in the near future

sacred escarp
placid sentinel
#

Even 7800 XT is overkill tbh

#

current setup

placid sentinel
#

The tv looks so out of place

#

Also W setup

pallid notch
#

what if i want to watch something on my computer on my bed

placid sentinel
#

I wasn’t saying it was bad

pallid notch
#

i know but

#

“out of place”

sacred escarp
pallid notch
#

but a rgb lcd water cooler

#

but rgb ram

#

but eatx mbd

#

but sam

#

but full tower

#

and i hope that the power supply doesn’t explode

#

when it draws double than what is required

sacred escarp
#

what is ur main purpose for this pc @pallid notch

placid sentinel
placid sentinel
#

the psu in their build is fine

#

but I should prob put 7800X3D in mine now that I think about it

#

@pallid notch should I put black mobo instead of funny orange one

#

also what parts do you already have from your old build

#

like can we reuse case and shit

placid sentinel
#

no point in wasting money on a higher end gpu when it's not gonna do you any good

#

plus, it's nvidia which is even more of a waste of money

placid sentinel
#

7500f should be way more than enough for 180hz

#

also you have to get that 7500f off aliexpress, it's not sold in the US

#

the 7600/7600X are the same cpu but they cost $70 more

pallid notch
#

like not light but also not triple a

#

and productivity work

#

like autocad and inventor

placid sentinel
#

ok cad is like fine

#

it doesn't use that much cpu

pallid notch
#

it doesn’t?

placid sentinel
#

unless you're pulling up like

#

an entire fucking car

#

or something

pallid notch
#

i see

placid sentinel
#

I mean, one of the best free cad programs literally runs in a browser

pallid notch
#

but my monitor has amd freesync so

pallid notch
placid sentinel
placid sentinel
pallid notch
placid sentinel
#

gsync is just nvidias proprietary version of freesync

#

so

#

freesync monitors work on nvidia

pallid notch
#

oh

#

wait

#

then how do i know that its on

placid sentinel
#

uhhhh

#

idk

pallid notch
placid sentinel
#

oh

#

turn on refresh rate number

#

then sit on your desktop with nothing open

pallid notch
#

its enabled but don’t i also have to turn it on in the drivers or smth

placid sentinel
#

and see if it goes down from 180 when you aren't moving your cursor

pallid notch
#

wha

placid sentinel
#

the thing right under the freesync option

#

in the monitor settings

pallid notch
#

i see

#

but wdym nothing open

placid sentinel
#

like

#

just hit windows d

#

I meant like no windows onscreen

pallid notch
#

i mean

#

its still 180

#

its not dropping down?

placid sentinel
#

hmm

#

at least on linux if you stop moving your mouse itll drop to like

#

48

#

idk if windows does the same

#

oh

pallid notch
#

ohh

#

so i can use freesync on a nvidia gpu

pallid notch
placid sentinel
#

I think 48 is the minimum refresh rate thats supported by my monitor

pallid notch
#

i have never seen anything under 60hz

pallid notch
placid sentinel
#

I meant stuff you can reuse

#

like case

#

other stuff you should sell ig

#

can prob fit a 4tb ssd into the budget if you want

#

or keep the hard drives

pallid notch
pallid notch
placid sentinel
#

actually why did I put a 1tb ssd in

#

whatever

#

@pallid notch should I swap ssd to 500gb

#

would probably save like

#

$20

pallid notch
#

the lower the better

#

and the faster the better

#

at least a 256gb ssd

placid sentinel
#

ssds are just so fast now that literally any ssd is fine

pallid notch
#

i am going to forever remember that goofy mbd

sacred escarp
#

lol

placid sentinel
#

should I put a black one in

pallid notch
#

its driving me insane the long i look at it

placid sentinel
pallid notch
#

im being fr

#

it looks like some threw up doritos and eggs on it

formal mural
#

fr but it’s good tho
