(GPU isn't on Parts Picker fsr so I picked the OC version)

supple girder
#

whats your budget if you dont mind me asking

polar jungle
#

Not really sure

#

Was looking to spend around 1200 but that number grew and grew

#

Case fans and ARGB controller and whatnot

#

Trying to 100% keep it below 1500

supple girder
#

below 1500 alright, any particular brand like nvidia amd intel or even better question what would you be planning to do on this system

polar jungle
#

Nvidia/Intel, mostly gaming

#

Just making sure, you're aware I've made a parts list and stuff right

supple girder
#

yup ive been looking

#

its the reason i asked what your budget would be since i seen the total in pcpp was 825 as some stuff didnt have a price tag shown

polar jungle
#

1300 on Amazon

#

Not including the CPU cooler I got that on eBay

#

The 4060 Ti is where I'm worried

#

Even finding one used

#

I'm not sure of any Nvidia alternatives that offer good Vram and overall performance

supple girder
#

ik you said nvidia/intel but for a 4060ti alternative you could get an amd gpu maybe rx 7700xt/7800xt (12-16gb vram) and if its an oc model then slightly higher clocks and a bit cheaper than nvidia which i feel throws people off from getting amd but price to performance shows only downside is if you plan to do rendering or heavy editing then it wont show in that aspect

polar jungle
#

I had a 7600 and it was an awful experience

#

Looking for out-of-the-box fun I don't have the time for troubleshooting

supple girder
#

i heard about the 7600 it was in one of my lists but has been changed to a 7800xt, theres always last gen amd gpus such as 6750 or 6800 (xt models) which should be cheaper depending on the company that made it or a last gen nvidia gpu such as 3070ti or 3080 (ti or non ti) < 30 series i would try go for used since there still a bit on the pricey side new only downfall is the vram for those

#

or stick with the 4060 you had and say fuck the people who act like children with that gpu

polar jungle
#

I'd easily go with a 3060 Ti if it had a 16GB option

supple girder
#

got 12gb pretty close

polar jungle
#

Ti only comes with 8

#

Cuz AMD CPUs are great

polar jungle
#

GPU

#

Paired with a 5600

haughty lodge
#

You already have are on AM4

#

@polar jungle what GPU?

polar jungle
#

Wdym?

#

For this parts list?

haughty lodge
#

No what do you have rn

polar jungle
#

Nothing

#

Refunded the 7600 and 5600 and am in the process of selling everything else

polar jungle
#

Just cause I was able to

#

Better than selling for less than what I bought it for

haughty lodge
#

There is no need to sell it

polar jungle
#

I have no use for it

#

I don't see why I should keep it when I could get a full refund

haughty lodge
#

You should reuse it with a new GPU

#

You can get a 4070 super with it

polar jungle
#

Just wanted to start from scratch again

#

Knew almost nothing about computer parts and decided to learn instead of having someone else make a parts list for me

haughty lodge
#

It's a great CPU

#

Reuse it

#

@polar jungle what other stuff do you have?

#

Like. Case or PSU?

polar jungle
#

Only parts I have that aren't being reused are a meh Thermaltake case, an MSI PSU that's too underpowered for this next build, a B550M-K mobo, and some case fans

haughty lodge
#

When 7600 launched the drivers were shit I believe you on that but CPUs don't have drivers

polar jungle
#

Idk what to tell you man it's been gone for a few weeks

haughty lodge
#

You still have the motherboard? @polar jungle

polar jungle
#

I do yeah

#

Not considering reusing it

#

Lacks a few features that I would want

haughty lodge
#

Rip

polar jungle
#

550 watt

haughty lodge
#

That's not great

#

Mean it's ok ok

#

But I get that u won't like to reuse it

#

@polar jungle 1300$ - 1500$ right?

polar jungle
#

1500 max

haughty lodge
#

K

#

@polar jungle you should go AM5 with a Ryzen 7000 CPU

#

Or do you really want intel?

polar jungle
#

Would it save me a ton of money?

haughty lodge
#

With intel you would need to buy a new motherboard when you want to upgrade

crystal ember
polar jungle
#

To be honest I don't see myself upgrading at all over the next 5-8 years

polar jungle
#

And at that point it would just be a new build

crystal ember
#

bro im using a 2060S with a r9 5900x rn

haughty lodge
#

@polar jungle for gaming AMD is a bit cheaper and more stable

#

Intel is great for video editing and CAD

#

Ok for gaming

haughty lodge
#

You are obviously trolling

crystal ember
#

no tf

crystal ember
#

this then?

2 rdv

#

oh you are saying the cpu is too weak

#

i thought you mean the gpu

haughty lodge
#

Stop

#

Just stop

crystal ember
#

what ??

#

dude?

haughty lodge
#

Watch GN and hardware unboxed

#

U really don't know what you are doing

crystal ember
#

man this is stupid

#

back in my day you just needed a good cpu and gpu

#

no bottleneck shit

haughty lodge
crystal ember
#

👀

haughty lodge

crystal ember
#

I DID

haughty lodge
#

1440p

#

Not 1080

crystal ember
#

👀 👀 👀

polar jungle
#

Would that 7600 actually be a good match for a 4070 Super?

#

Much cheaper than that i5 and that 4070 is plenty more powerful than the 4060 Ti

haughty lodge
polar jungle
#

As long as going with AMD doesn't mean software issues

#

I think everything I was running into with my last build was GPU related

haughty lodge
#

CPUs don't have drivers

#

Intel have software issues

#

Cuz they have P cores and E cores

#

AMD just P cores

polar jungle
#

I might consider that Ryzen 5 7600 then

#

I look into that

#

I'll need to find a mobo with wifi

polar jungle
#

@haughty lodge is the 7800X3D worth it over the 7600X?

#

Paired with a 4070 Super?

haughty lodge
#

For like a 4080 super yes

#

Not a 4070 super

polar jungle
#

Ah alright

#

Trying to avoid big bottlenecks

supple girder
#

a gpu that would bottleneck a 7800x3d would be somewhere in the rtx 12000 range or rx 15000 range still got a while to go before they make an appearance KEK i dont even think the 5090 would bottleneck the thing

polar jungle
#

Would a 4070 Super bottleneck that?

olive quartz
#

the fact that it shows the exact same bottleneck for 1080 and 1440p proves it

#

oh wait, i was looking at the wrong one

supple girder

#

Whoever uses bottleneck calculators is dumb

#

They're the most immaculate pieces of shit over

next prawn
#

Hello!

#

lemme help?

olive quartz
next prawn
#

true

#

they're shit

supple girder
olive quartz
supple girder
#

i meant like actually play the games with afterburner open w/ OSD turned on and look at the percentages on both cpu n gpu that should give them a good idea on what kind of bottleneck if any is taking place

olive quartz
#

Yes

polar jungle
#

@haughty lodge does that look good?

supple girder

tbf would rather have 6400 cl32 than cl38 6000 it is better and within the bios you can change the speed so im not gonna complain, not as if i would in the first place was just looking out

5% for $10 seems like a fair deal

vale crow

up to you

#

so should I replace it?

haughty lodge
#

do you not know what QLC Nand means?

haughty lodge

do DE
