the title is pretty self explanatory, but i am about to build a pc and my budget is $1350 and i did this build but i dont know if its good because its my first time building one. if the link doesnt work idk why but it sometimes doesnt work.
(ignore the funko pop)
#Could someone see if my pc build is good?

the title is pretty self explanatory, but i am about to build a pc and my budget...
is there a reason you need nvidia?
fresh mural
is there a reason you need nvidia?
no not really i just asked my friends and they said nvidia
tardy brook
no not really i just asked my friends and they said nvidia
they are wrong 💀
k lemme cook
fresh mural
ok
fresh mural
yeah its kinda old its a 1920x1080p one
tardy brook
also what's our total budget
that 4070S is complete overkill for 1080p so
also do you have a pc rn
fresh mural
my brother is giving me his
tardy brook
k I can work with this
tardy brook
you have more than enough
fresh mural
oh
tardy brook
are you good with getting the cpu off aliexpress?
fresh mural
yikes
tardy brook
you can get a 7500F for $70 less than a 7600 on there
(it performs the same)
7500F is china only for some reason
fresh mural
weird
fresh mural
idk
tardy brook
also no offense but like every part in this build is bad
fresh mural
no offense taken
tardy brook
like it performs good but you can get stuff that performs the same for way cheaper
fresh mural
fr?
tardy brook
some stuff performs better for cheaper
for example https://pcpartpicker.com/product/BRMMnQ
that significantly outperforms an NH-D15
fresh mural
so i wont have a fly coming out my wallet after i buy the parts type cheaper?
tardy brook
well im adding a monitor so it'll prob end up costing the same
also what's your opinion on this mobo
fresh mural
oh ok
tardy brook
tardy brook
like it performs good but you can get stuff that performs the same for way cheap...
another example
costs $549 when it isn't out of stock
performs better than 4070 ti
tardy brook
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbQ8Pe4WVxc
also watch this review
its actually such a W monitor
fresh mural
ok
tardy brook
ok im over budget
ill cut costs a bit
could also go back down to 1TB storage instead of 2TB to save $50
fresh mural
to what
tardy brook
7800 XT performs as well as a 4070 not 4070 ti though
fresh mural
its fine
tardy brook
also do you need 2TB or should I go 1TB
fresh mural
ok
tardy brook
the mobo should ship with an updated bios so its fine
worst case you just put a bios file on a usb using another computer and update it
fresh mural
ok
its a bit over my original budget so if i want to what could i change some things to
tardy brook
well you could always buy the PC and upgrade monitor later
could also go for the higher quality mobo and case then
fresh mural
wow🥲
tardy brook
then you could save $280 and get the monitor later
tardy brook
also that monitor should look almost as good as OLED in HDR
fresh mural
nice
tardy brook
also, the overclocking on the 7900 GRE is broken
the gpu, memory clockspeed, and power limits are all way too low
as it is rn you can just drag all 3 sliders to the maximum and it'll work fine on any card
and it'll perform a little better than a 4070 ti
you might wanna wait to see how good the overclocking is after AMD fixes it
fresh mural
ok
tardy brook
i kinda dont know what over clocking is
making the card run faster than it does by default
tardy brook
yeah
fresh mural
oke
tardy brook
the 7900 GRE is basically a 7900 XT with 80 instead of 84 compute units
fresh mural
ok
tardy brook
so theoretically it should perform almost the same
but it's clocked very slow by default
fresh mural
i see
tardy brook
and the 7900 XT is a $700 card so getting almost the same thing for $550 seems very nice
tardy brook
I mean
you can see the 3090 ti on that graph and the GRE beats it right now even though it's nerfed 💀
the GRE is another china only part except AMD actually launched it in the US recently
fresh mural
ok
fallen quest
performs better than 4070 ti
It doesn’t
tardy brook
It doesn’t
im talking about after OC
fresh mural
uh oh
fallen quest
Oh
fresh mural
oh
tardy brook
which is just a drag all 3 sliders to the right challenge
fallen quest
Lol
fresh mural
also what cpu is best for 7900 gre
tardy brook
yeah I put a 7500F in my build
@fresh mural @latent wraith has alerted me to a new monitor
ima watch the video
fresh mural
the bottle neck thing is 14%, does that really matter??
fresh mural
the bottle neck thing is 14%, does that really matter??
with the 7900 gre
tardy brook
the bottle neck thing is 14%, does that really matter??
bottleneck calculators are pretty useless
tbh
fresh mural

Top comment is “tldr: the monitor sucks”
tardy brook
Top comment is “tldr: the monitor sucks”
yeah after watching the review I think the AOC is worth the extra $30
overdrive settings and VRR are mutually exclusive and the monitor performs a little worse
it does have better color coverage and more dimming zones though
also it is tuned worse from the factory
fallen quest
I like the Koorui GN10, in the UK its the cheapest mini led monitor, 240hz aswell

Memory bandwidth has left the chat
fallen quest
*Memory bandwidth has left the chat*
It can go up to 20gbps
Its just handicapped on purpose
Latest driver update has fixed that however

They fixed the memory overclocking?
