Ok

#

is it also possible to take my 1tb ssd and my 16gb ram from my old pc and plug it with the new components in the one?

frank venture
#

The SSD, sure. The RAM, depends. If your old RAM is DDR4, then no. If it's DDR5, yes. But I wouldn't recommend it since having two sticks per channel (all 4 slots occupied), the stress on the memory controller is quite a bit higher and you might not be able to run at your kit's full speed. And you'd also have to have your old kit match the new kit or otherwise the new kit would run at the speed of the old one (if the old one is slower)

onyx bolt
#

alright i can put it in the ssd but not the ram cuz its ddr4

#

also do you happen to know a website to theoretically test the specs for games?

frank venture
#

How do you mean? Do you mean something where you can input your specs and it'll give you an estimated game performance? I'd say either look up benchmarks online or use something like buildredux. They tell you roughly how the config will perform. Don't use UserBenchmark, it's bad lol

#

But judging by the fact that you *are going to have have a 7900XTX, it's gonna be hard to get your games to run below 60FPS unless you try running them at 8K

onyx bolt
#

would be like the best i could get for my money or does redux offer better?

frank venture
#

I just mentioned them for the estimated game performance. Buildredux makes prebuilts

Put the first stick in the furthest slot away from the CPU and leave one spot free and put the second stick in the slot second-closest to the CPU

south hamlet
#

So it's pretty fast

south hamlet
#

Better case

#

Similar quality PSU

#

You could go for the MSI MAG 850 Watt PCIE 5

#

For 105€

onyx bolt
south hamlet
#

Both are good

onyx bolt
#

and whats better on that case?

south hamlet
#

The XT PRO Ultra is amazing but white case when everything else is black?

onyx bolt
#

and what about case fans?

#

do i also need to order extras or not

spark karma
#

for the case in the list or the xt pro ultra?

onyx bolt
#

the case in the list

spark karma
#

as you can see in the pictures it comes with fans

#

but i would rather to with the phanteks xt pro ulta as it has 4 super quiet 140MM fans

#

and tons of rgb

#

and is big nice and just good

onyx bolt
#

does pc part picker only show the ones available in my country or from everywhere?

#

because i don't see any KEDIERS cases however they look really good

spark karma
#

i have the same issue with a bran in norway

onyx bolt
#

so those cases might work with my components but pc part picker just doesn't display them?

spark karma
#

ye

onyx bolt
#

the rest of the components are good right?

spark karma
#

ofc

#

a 7800x3d (rated the best gaming cpu from most tech ppl) and the high end price to performance gpu the 7900 xtx that is slightly faster then the 4080 that costs more and has a good bit less vram

onyx bolt
#

so all i should look for is just a pc case

spark karma
#

i would say go with the phanteks xt pro ulta

#

but they only have the white one in Belgium 😦

onyx bolt
#

yeah

#

isn't there a way to get all the other components in white?

spark karma
#

ofc

#

gimi a sec and i will try

onyx bolt
#

might have to do that than

spark karma
#

can also just call it a star trooper pc

#

aka white and black

onyx bolt
#

or what is so good about the phanteks xt pro ultra? maybe i can look for a similar quality one

spark karma
#

its just that good

#

i do just love it as it looks nice has good rad support and it is cheap

onyx bolt
#

rad support?

spark karma
#

raidiator support aka water cooling

#

i got a different psu as the old one has a chance to become illegal to buy

onyx bolt
#

oh wtf

spark karma
#

its made by deep cool and deep cool gave money to russia

#

and you know what happens then

onyx bolt
#

yep

#

are there even better cases than the phanteks? that look a bit better aswell

spark karma
#

ofc for way more money

onyx bolt
#

and are there similar ones to the phanteks with a better look?

spark karma
#

to my knowledge, no

#

looks are subjective

onyx bolt
#

yeah true

spark karma
#

worst case get a can of spray paint

onyx bolt
#

however the price is wayyyy to much

spark karma
#

YUP 250

#

NZXT is just not worth it

onyx bolt
#

its just like an example of what i find a 'cool' case

#

im not spending 250 on just the case thats just insane

spark karma
#

i have the xt pro ultra as i build computers and it is a just a nice case

#

big open and room for a 4090 type case with project zero compatibility

onyx bolt
spark karma
#

just expensive

#

phanteks make some of the best fans money can buy so trust them with fans and their cases are also super premium

#

the G360A or G500A are nice cases and my pc uses the G500A too and i do love it

onyx bolt
#

because im probably gonna sell my old pc and maybe increase my budget a bit for this new one

spark karma
#

what are the specs of the old pc

onyx bolt
#

I7-10700, 16gb ram, RTX 2070 super

spark karma
#

ye i see why the upgrade

#

the pc part picker list is still super nice

#

the g360a

#

same price but a good bit worse preformance

onyx bolt
spark karma
#

nah its all ok

#

its still worth a bit but nothing compared to the pcpartpicker pc

#

that boy is a fast one

onyx bolt
#

are there sites that pc part picker hasn't checked?

#

like that i can maybe still buy the phanteks xt pro ultra

spark karma
#

ye

onyx bolt
#

lets go, theres still hope

spark karma
#

you can try and find a retailer in Belgium

onyx bolt
#

btw you said it also support rad. Which one is better, with fans or water cooling?

spark karma
#

the 7800X3D uses near no power compared to intel who needs water cooling and POWER just to be worse then the 7800X3D in gaming.

you do not need water cooling but if you want or need it in the future then the case can do it

onyx bolt
#

so ill just stick with fans than

spark karma
#

ye a air cooler is good

south hamlet
spark karma
#

ofc

south hamlet
#

And MSI MAG PCIE 5 over the Corsair

spark karma
#

but warranty is nice to have

south hamlet
#

With a XTX that would be a problem

spark karma
#

what?

#

why

#

638 is not 750

south hamlet
#

It would be loaded at like 80% load

spark karma
#

while gaming

south hamlet
#

You don't want it to go over 60-70%

#

How long is the warranty?

spark karma
#

more then 5 years i do belive

#

most PSUes like to be at 80% or a little more

south hamlet
#

The MSI one will last wayyy more then 5 years

#

I give you my personal warranty

spark karma
#

corsair is also quality

south hamlet
spark karma
#

i do se lots of tx750s going around and not the new ones but the 2012 or earlier ones

#

their is a reason why corsair has so many PSUes at the top of the cultist leader board

onyx bolt
#

so ill do the 850W instead of 750W to be sure?

spark karma
#

power curve

onyx bolt
south hamlet
onyx bolt
#

or should i even go for the 1000?

south hamlet
onyx bolt
#

like im not gonna spend an extra 200 on a single component but if its like less than 50 or so its alright for me

south hamlet
#

This is about 30€ more from the 850 watt version

#

It's worth it for an XTX

spark karma
#

m8 you can run a 750w with an xtx i run mince with a 850w

I also heard it has coil finn

onyx bolt
#

quick question, why tf is the video card almost 1000 and nothing else is higher than 370

spark karma
#

nvidia

#

gpues are stupid now a days as the price for a gpu is just way too high due too pcb design the core itself is HUGE aka super expensive to make and other stuff like that and for next gen amd will focus on the price

#

a yes a old gigabyte product just like a old corsair evga and all those brands and more have had PSU issues but its normally quickly fixed so you should not stop buying from them just for one broken product

frank venture
#

Gigabyte have long resolved this issue luckily

onyx bolt
#

so the corsair one or gigabyte?

spark karma
#

1000W is a good bit more then you need

#

the corsair one will do fine

#

you know 750w is good for your pc

onyx bolt
#

i also found a site which sells the black case

#

but it sells the case with 4 fans pre-installed, should i buy the other 6 aswell or maybe like 3 or whats best do you think sim?
