I Currently have a decent pc but i get bottlenecked in games like elden ring, destiny 2 at like 20-30fps so im looking to upgrade

stone ivy
#

well can you at least give a budget?

#

also specs of current system can help

shell gale
#

im hoping to stay around 1.5k but can go up to 2k

#

current specs:
2070 Super
I7-10700
1tb storage
16gb ram
500W power

#

also i did buy the Phanteks XT pro ultra that you recommended sim

stone ivy
#

very nice

shell gale
#

this was like the eventual list that was made in that threat but im not to sure about it

#

the video card just looks too expensive and i think it might not even be used to its fullest potential

mb

stone ivy
shell gale
#

i think 1080p

stone ivy
#

why do you have so many extra fans?

#

the case comes with 4 140mm ARGB PWM FANS which is why i love the case

shell gale
#

cuz my current case has 0 and it gets very hot quickly so i wanted to make sure to maximize how many fans i can get so its cool

stone ivy
#

and again it has more then enough fans the xt pro ultra

shell gale
#

dont know, i dont check it but i took the side panel off for cooling

shell gale
stone ivy
shell gale
#

i dont know if it gets too hot, i just know that after a while it gives off a lot of heat

stone ivy
#

thats normal, but anyways remove the fans

shell gale
#

alright i will but still keep the cpu cooler tho right?

stone ivy
#

aka a 50-80W cpu and for me i only get around 50w or less usage in some games

shell gale
#

so i also remove that?

stone ivy
#

the cpu cooler you have for it now is super high end for the price and will cool even a 9950X

shell gale
#

ah ok

#

and for the gpu?

stone ivy
#

well when it comes to gpu cooler in the 1 first world it tends to be more then fine no matter what gpu you choose

shell gale
#

I am wondering though, is there a gpu that is a bit less pricey but still performs well enough with the rest of the build

stone ivy
shell gale
#

what would you recommend

stone ivy
shell gale
#

preferably like 100 but i would prefer to take your advice even if that means spending a bit more

stone ivy
#

7900 XT

shell gale
#

so than this would be final? i removed the case cuz i already have it

well only thing to say is just that ram as it might be unstable but i also run 6400MT but get it at your own risk or just clock it a tiny bit down, as its pretty easy to do so but anyways i hope you enjoy building it and gaming on it.

shell gale

unstabe?

stone ivy
shell gale
#

im gonna change everything at once tho

#

imma buy all the components at once and then assemble it when it arrives

last nexus
#

yea it will be fine but ram you will wanna run at like 6000 if u dont want it to crash instantly. caz 6400 hard to get working with ryzen 7 7800

stone ivy
#

but ofc this is more luck if it works or not

shell gale
#

and is there a more safe way?

stone ivy
#

it cant do anything permanent

Better and Cheaper PSU

#

More stable ram

#

Mobo with more m.2s

shell gale
#

@stone ivy what do you think?

stone ivy
#

well it did not even save 30 euro but that m.2 is probs nicer

#

but im not too happy about psu

# sharp sable It’s not. 1440p >

im doing it, but ofc its not too great when i get 200+ fps in most games i can use it but most ppl use a lower Hz 1080p screen so a 1440p 160hz or better is what i would argue for minimum for a high end gpu like the 7900 XTX even tho im not following my own advice

Exactly
