ok quick question does boost clock matter?

lime meteor
#

welll

timber jungle
#

If you OC....

lime meteor
#

that depends

#

alot on what you cooling with, and how long you want it to last.

hasty marsh

dEpeNddsss

lime meteor
#

it does kind of

hasty marsh
#

thats what i said lol

lime meteor
#

looked sarcastic.

pliant lantern
#

lol

lime meteor
#

it depends on the motherbourd

#

depends on the cooling

weak hamlet
#

so many variables.

lime meteor
#

not all motherboards support OC on intel, or amd cpus.

pliant lantern
#

ok what do you all think is a decent amd mobo for a decent price?

lime meteor
#

and cooling is definitely complicated variable.

urban ferry
#

105 tdp tho?

hasty marsh
#

oh no no sarcasm

#

unless you can smell it through your monitor i no sarcastic

timber jungle
#

Want AMD or Intel? That will determine a lot of choices of MOBO

pliant lantern
#

i want to go amd

timber jungle
#

AMD.. again if I would read the full thing before responding... lol

pliant lantern

lol

timber jungle

150$ for a good one... 200+
For top line..

for zen2?

pliant lantern

I’m Intel... so asking about AMD may not result in best results... πŸ˜‚

ASUS makes a good product all around. Over the years I have not had one ASUS product go bad on me.

ROG ftw.

hoary ingot

Asus gang

weak hamlet
#

I've got the rog strix b450

#

love it.

timber jungle
#

For MOBO it’s about the chip set you want to use.

weak hamlet
#

if you wanna go zen2, you'll need anything b450 and newer.

#

maybe a few selected 350s but I doubt.

#

won't get the full effect of Zen2.

hasty marsh
#

x570 boards will get the most out of the zen 2

weak hamlet
#

yeah.

pliant lantern
#

what is the big difference between the b450 and the x470?

weak hamlet
#

πŸ˜„

hasty marsh
#

x570*

#

i dont know everything about it but i think it helps to make use of the new zen 2

weak hamlet
#

PCI 4.0

hasty marsh
#

though i didnt research everything about it bec i dont have time

weak hamlet
#

lots of new bells and whistles

#

usually we just ping @austere tree and he drops helpful links.

pliant lantern
#

nice

austere tree
#

yeah

pliant lantern

blissful harness
#

Is the "certified memory RAM for AMD" still a thing? Or can I get away with most types/brands of RAM now? Given that its fast enough and I manually configure it in the BIOS?

austere tree
#

you can get by with most brands now

#

G.Skill and Corsair are your most compatible

blissful harness

Awesome! thanks!

Does anyone know if you overclock your CPU, and you turn it up all the way will it fry your cpu or will it only max out what it can?

urban ferry
#

your computer will crash if you push it too far

#

you gotta guess and check to find the highest stable clock speed

#

turn it up little by little

#

like .2 or .1 every time and run a stress test that uses ur cpu

#

monitor the temps and make sure its not throttling

#

if it crashes, turn down the clock speed a bit and do it until your computer has good temps and isnt crashing

#

i dont wanna mislead anyone especially because ive never overclocked before tho

weak hamlet
#

it's not going to crash, it's just not going to turn on.

urban ferry
#

oh

weak hamlet
#

well, it will try, but it will keep rebooting until it goes back to default settings.

whole bluff
#

hello guys , any 1 here trying to build a pc for affter effect mainly?

weak hamlet
#

eh?

urban ferry
#

i think he means adobe after effects

whole bluff
#

Yes

#

Is it important to had speed ram like 32*3600

#

Or 2666*64

ionic mirage
#

Overclocked RAM is usually important for Ryzen mesh overclocks or RAM drives. I got some B-die RAM for doing the RAM drive thing on Linux.

I'm wondering if I can emulate Windows 10 on a Raspberry Pi 4 (4gb of RAM) and still meet these system requirements for a program. Any thoughts?

===========

System Requirements:
Windows XP or higher
DirectX 9.0c
Graphics adapter with shader model 2.0 or higher support

Recommended requirements for the volume renderer:
Intel Dual Core or higher CPU
2GB of system memory
At least 128MB of dedicated video memory

=======
Here's the specs for the Raspberry Pi 4:

Sadly I don't think Arm systems are powerful enough to emulate x86 unless we are talking very weak x86 CPUs.

Right now i have a Fx-6300 Professor, what would be the cheapest cpu upgrade i could get? i have a RX560 also btw

My professor is core2quad q9550 oc to 4.5. My gpu is 1080 ti. Ram is 16gb ddr3. On 790i ultra sli evga mobo it's super bottlenecked

Anyone here seen the new gen 3 Ryzen 5's?

#

Thinking about picking one up

#

When they release

sharp spire

I am also @dry cobalt

#

Looking to see the benchmark scores first

dry cobalt

so i'm just looking at Asus' lineup of x570 mobos and I am very confused about why they don't have any Micro-ATX options.... Are they just wanting people to use their Mini-DTX mobo instead? I want to build a Micro-ATX computer but I don't like the idea of putting anything smaller than a Micro-ATX board in a case that is designed for that size of mobo

#

Are there any Micro-ATX X570 mobos by Asus or MSI?

austere tree
#

i don't see any mATX from any of the manufacturers

graceful flame
#

rip

vapid sand
#

ok, so can someone help me decide what i need to upgrade in my computer next?

north tinsel
#

Of course

#

What is your current setup?

north tinsel
#

Oh nice, i like the case

austere tree
#

the 1060's still a capable card

vapid sand
#

thanks

austere tree
#

could do with a CPU upgrade

vapid sand
#

That is what i was thinking

north tinsel
#

First thing would be imho wait for the 3000 series to launch and get one of those with the new 570 boards

austere tree
#

the board he has would work fine with the 3000 series

north tinsel
#

1060 is as matt said still capable, but eventually i'd shoot for a 2070 minimum.

#

Also depends on the kind of gaming your doing.

vapid sand
#

I'm also on a pretty tight budget cause i don't have a solid job

#

just a teen

north tinsel
#

lower end 3000 series and that's honestly about it until you can afford a bigger upgrade, but at that point it's just luxury over necessity

vapid sand
#

cool, thanks for the advice, should i also look to upgrade from 8GB of Ram. If so what to

north tinsel
#

there's a good deal going on right now for like 55 for 16gb some ballistix ram

#

but it might have sold out already

vapid sand
#

ok

north tinsel
#

if you go non rgb you can get 16gb for under 100

vapid sand
#

so the Ryzen 5 3600 will be a good upgrade?

north tinsel
#

Definitely

vapid sand
#

ok, noted

#

What's the performance difference between that and the Ryzen 5 3600X

#

Worth $50?

north tinsel
#

I only caught snippets of the conference they talked about the 3 series but word on the street is the i9 is getting destroyed in charts by the 3 series

vapid sand
#

Coolio

north tinsel
#

I have a r7 2700 but i want to upgrade to them 3 series lol. As per the difference in a monetary value i'm not sure. I've always considered amd to be the android of the pc world while intel holds the apple name

vapid sand
#

ok

north tinsel
#

Intel definitely has some awesome tech but for budget to performance amd has always favored thinner wallets

vapid sand
#

cool

austere tree
#

sure, but if you're gonna go for that, you might as well wait for x570

north tinsel
#

that 3900x lookin supa sexy but almost threadripper esque i'd probably have to upgrade it

#

Yeah i have the msi with a r7 2700 and i really enjoy this mobo

#

I wouldn't want to get the lower end, that 3900x has me drooling

urban ferry
#

i might go for the 3700x

north tinsel
#

12 cores tho

#

like

#

ugh

#

please

graceful flame
#

same; might splurge for a 3800x

urban ferry
#

8 is enough

north tinsel
#

but there's 12

#

lol

urban ferry
#

for me

graceful flame
#

can't go wrong with 12

#

lel

north tinsel
#

8 is more than enough lol but like how can you say no to a dozen of them little processor cores

#

working all hard to make my ultra graphics ultra graphical

vapid sand
#

stupid question, when are the new CPU's dropping and do you think they will be on sale for black friday

north tinsel
#

that's not a stupid question.

urban ferry
#

7/7

graceful flame
#

They release on the 7th yea

north tinsel
#

It's likely they will be out before and most probably on sale but not sure yet i don't know the release date

#

^

vapid sand
#

kckool

urban ferry
#

my data is really slow right now so imma leave

north tinsel
#

that might be the big sale coming up

hoary ingot
#

Thoughts?

north tinsel
#

worth if you don't want to go big on the 3 series just yet

#

that's just my opinion

hoary ingot
#

I was gonna get the normal 2700 since I dont wanna spend too much haha

graceful flame
#

When are the X570 mobos going to be available? Also on the 7th?

urban ferry
#

i hope 😨

hoary ingot
#

I think I'm gonna save money if I buy this now so I might as well

#

Is the 2700x pretty great?

#

I'm not really worried about the new chips coming out

urban ferry
#

the 2700x is an awesome chip

hoary ingot
#

Its paired with the Asus rog strix b450

#

I made a mistake not buying the zotac 2080 on sale so I think I might as well buy this LOL

urban ferry
#

i was always confused

#

which is better, x470 or b450?

copper solar
graceful flame
#

if you want to overclock; you can't do that on a b450 so

#

x470 if you want to overclock

urban ferry
#

any other differences?

naive pendant
#

"AMD also made sure to point out that the B450 chipset works with all of its Ryzen CPUs and even supports overclocking. Intel has mostly restricted overclocking to its Z370 and Z470 series chipsets, which are far pricier.Jul 31, 2018"

#

pc world said that

graceful flame
#

oof

#

rip my knowledge

hoary ingot
#

So

#

B450 ok for OC?

naive pendant
#

B450 is OK...x470 is better though for overclocking.

urban ferry
#

but how

#

oh

#

so i assume x470 is just better in general

untold laurel
#

Hey do yall think the Ryzen 7 3800X is gonna out perform the i7 9700K in single threading?

urban ferry
#

idk

#

gotta wait for benchmarks

naive pendant
#

Anandtech explains that x470 has SLI support and better VRM's.

untold laurel
#

Same I bought the 9700K a little afraid of its relatively in the long run, I know is still good but will it still hold its value for a long time is the real question.

modest grove
#

is there a noticeable difference between a i7 8700k vs i7 9700k

naive pendant
#

it's a small performance improvement

#

^

modest grove
#

the 9700k is same price as 8700k on amazon

urban ferry
#

he said the a word πŸ‘€

#

youre lucky the mods arent onlune rn

#

online*

untold laurel
#

8700 has 6 cores I believe versus the 9700 8 cores

#

9700 and 9900 are practically the same just the 9900 has hyper threading

urban ferry
#

the 9900 is more of a flex tho

untold laurel
#

@modest grove I would wait on the new ryzens tho

urban ferry
#

you can say you have an i9 to someone who judges processors by their name and theyre gonna think u have the best pc ever

untold laurel
#

Pretty much lol

#

But in all honesty it's all going to do better at things that require multithreading

#

Only*

modest grove
#

yeah im gonna go with the 9700k its a free upgrade

untold laurel
#

Free? That's awesome! How so if you dont mind me asking?

modest grove
#

ill dm you since its the a word website

hoary ingot

Soon I will have a full pc

urban ferry

you could ask theo to price out the cheapest possible computer and hed still choose intel

hoary ingot

Amd gang

urban ferry

im going to buy what performs better at the 8 core range

we will see what happens on 7/7

modest grove

can yall recommend any good mobos under $200?

that's awesome Matt.

austere tree
#

the streets either side of my neighborhood already have it

weak hamlet
#

I can get gigabit right now

#

but they charge 200-300 for the install

austere tree
#

oof

weak hamlet
#

and then 150/month

austere tree
#

oof

#

my ISP charges no install fee for fiber and only $90/mo for gigabit

weak hamlet
#

i'll stick with my 90/month at 480mb/s

austere tree
#

and they're doing the 750Mb/s over cable

weak hamlet
#

its a 400mb plan, so I can't complain.

urban ferry
#

hmmm how can i check what we have

weak hamlet
#

yeah technically this is still over cable.

austere tree
#

you'd need to look at your parents bill

weak hamlet
#

but from the pole to my house they said they have to install a new line.

austere tree
#

yeah

urban ferry
#

i know the password to our account

weak hamlet
#

that's why it cost so much

austere tree
#

that's what they're doing here, fiber to the node

weak hamlet

yeah

austere tree

i'mma get that 750 for the same $85/mo

but you being on wifi is limiting you

that's not a bad price for that bundle tbh

urban ferry

imma talk to my mom about it πŸ‘€

is gigabit worth it?

austere tree

urban ferry

austere tree

That's on wifi the other end of the house from the router

#

i can get full speed at my neighbor's house

urban ferry
#

hold on im legit confused

austere tree
#

it's a special package price to get you to sign a contract

urban ferry
#

why is what we pay right now more expensive than gigabit?

#

o

austere tree
#

because your contract pricing expired

weak hamlet
#

after that year is up

#

they get you.

#

RIM YOU.

austere tree
#

it would be 2 years

#

but yeah

weak hamlet

just long enough to forget

oh no it's one of the things i'm most ashamed of

weak hamlet
#

nah

never be ashamed.

austere tree

but lemme tell you zack

#

the wireless gateway they give you?

#

that thing ain't pumping out a gig over wifi

urban ferry
#

yeah

austere tree
#

if you guys do go for the gigabit plan, drop some serious cash on a good router

urban ferry
#

i doubt we are gonna get gigabit

#

250 is fast enough

weak hamlet
#

never fast enough

copper solar

thanks for the reminder

weak hamlet

oh damn

copper solar
#

i need to update my account to 2 year locked plan

weak hamlet

I thought we was in general

#

whoops

austere tree
#

lmao

urban ferry
#

wait but wheres the pricing after the first year?

copper solar
#

im not on a contract right now so its 183 per month

#

i can be 170 for two years and have gigabit

Are there any new RAM releases with all the new stuff coming out in the next few days?

like 4000mhz and 5000mhz or something crazy like that πŸ‘€

😱

true yarrow
#

I'm looking to spend around $200-$300 on a CPU + Mobo (AMD pref due to bang for the buck and price drops with new gen coming out). The GPU I'll be pairing it with is a GTX 1070 (friend gave it to me for $100 since he upgraded). I plan on using this PC for about 4 years until I have a full time job and can go all out on a crazy build.
I live close to a Microcenter so the CPU+Mobo combo's are crazy cheap rn. I wasn't sure whether or not to get a 2600x, 2700, or 2700x.
My main concerns are I don't want to bottleneck my GPU (I don't plan on upgrading parts at all. I'm just gonna sell the whole rig after 4 years or so). I also wanna make sure my CPU and Mobo are balanced, as in I want my Mobo to be able to support everything my CPU can do (don't plan on overlocking).

urban ferry
#

none of those will bottleneck ur 1070 really

#

id still go with a 2700 or a 2700x though

#

and that is a great mobo

true yarrow
#

If I get a 2700x, is that Mobo fine with it? It's like half the price of the CPU

urban ferry
#

yes

#

might wanna get an x470 mobo if u plan on overclocking tho

hasty marsh
#

even if a good quality mobo was half the price of a cpu, doesnt mean it will bottleneck

#

almost none of them will, unless it's a really old and beat up one

urban ferry
#

woah there calm down lol

#

a x470 board will bottleneck a 3000 series processor because it cant use pcie 4.0

#

so yes there are some factors that play into it

#

but just make sure you get the right socket and chipset for ur processor

hasty marsh
#

yeah

#

that should be common sense

#

though i didnt mention it bec i probably forgot and people know what im saying

#

and my energy has been nonexistent this week

so eh

been having fevers with an s because it's happened many times, stomach is upset cause of some pills and side effects

@modest grove That CPU isn’t a very good purchase right now

modest grove
#

the price?

turbid sluice
#

You can get a Ryzen 7 2700X for less than that and it will have better performance

#

And the motherboards for Threadripper ate more expensive

#

3rd gen Ryzen is also coming out on Sunday and will have better performance although the current discounts on current gen Ryzen makes them a very good value

hoary ingot
#

Microcenter has a physical sale on 2700x

#

Just saying lol

#

200 for 2700x and 30 dollars off if you get a paired mobo

nearest microcenter to me is 300 miles away

upbeat tundra
#

whats generally better for a cpu for gaming. intel or Ryzen

weak hamlet
#

ryzen, for gaming.

upbeat tundra
#

what makes ryzen better? do they just process faster?

#

I probably shoulda asked this before i bought my pc. I have an i7 9700k processor with a rtx 2070 coming in

weak hamlet
#

that is still a great PC.

#

intel is great for gaming as well, it's just a bit more expensive.

upbeat tundra
#

yeah I got to use it for a day and then it turned off and wouldnt turn back on. im waiting for my return to arrive for them to send another one

weak hamlet

with ryzen you can almost get the same effect, with a lot less hurt on the wallet.

oh ok. so they are comparable just ryzen is a bit cheaper

austere tree
#

yeah

weak hamlet
#

matt can give you the details on the difference

austere tree
#

the R5 3600, according to leaks is going to be comparable to a 9900K

upbeat tundra
#

whats the price difference

austere tree
#

the 3600 is $200

upbeat tundra
#

oh damn

#

a lot cheaper

austere tree
#

by more than half, yes

urban ferry
#

wait what

#

really?

austere tree
#

yeah

#

in single core it's within 10%

urban ferry
#

3600 comparable to a 9900k?

austere tree
#

then as you go up the gap closes even more

#

and still gonna be cheaper

urban ferry
#

DANG

#

i git my wallet out πŸ‘€

#

got*

austere tree
#

got your parents wallet out

#

i kid

#

but yeah, if the leaks are true, and i'm honestly waiting for reviews

#

then AMD knocked it out of the park

turbid sluice
#

I’m getting a 3900X which according to AMD is equivalent to the 14 core i9

urban ferry
#

nah @austere tree i think imma be mostly paying for my pc

austere tree
#

nice

hasty marsh
#

@urban ferry you didnt see the chart?

#

3600 equals big boy to 9900k

#

there's benchmarks

urban ferry
#

😨

#

thats crazyy

#

i tried not to look at leaked benchmarks

#

just in case theyre fake

hasty marsh
#

was already released more than a week ago

#

it was by amd's reddit

urban ferry
#

i know i just dont like leaks and rumors about things that i really care about

#

no spoilers 🀠

hasty marsh
#

that wasnt a rumor

#

oh ok

#

you'd rather wait for results later of something you wont buy than sooner

#

0 K

austere tree
#

i'm waiting for independent reviews before i believe anything

hasty marsh
#

yeah ofc

urban ferry
#

yeah

hasty marsh
#

though the 3600 and 9900k thing is already established

urban ferry
#

and i do plan on buying 3rd gen ryzen

hasty marsh
#

cant wait to see how it performs when every tech youtuber uploads a video about everything new

austere tree
#

yeah, i'mma go 3rd gen ryzen later this month/early next month

timber jungle
#

Excited for the new chip sets...

hasty marsh
#

nice

urban ferry
#

ALL ABOARD THE RYZEN 3000 HYPE TRAIN πŸš„

hasty marsh
#

we been on that hype since beginning of 2019 bois

urban ferry
#

even more now than ever

timber jungle
#

I am Intel fan, but AMD made a good look.. so I am excited. Glad there is competition again.

@copper solar why do u refuse to use amd

light bane
#

in number 1 in the diagram, what is the purpose of the left 4pin one?

copper solar
#

the extra 4pin is for extreme oc'ing

light bane
#

Is it required to power both the 4 and the 8 or only the 8pin on the right?

copper solar
#

which that board is for

light bane
#

so supplementary power?

copper solar
#

not sure actually lirikS

#

id look online for more information

light bane

i guess my next question is what is considered "extreme"?

#

ok just thought id ask here...thank you for your time!

copper solar
#

where you pump the voltages up to get those high clocks

true yarrow

Is the 3600 better and cheaper than the 2700x...?

quaint current

it’s the same price when it’s on sale

hello

weak hamlet
#

hi.

sand agate
#

i only put the things i dont have in the case at the moment

urban ferry
#

theres nothing on that list

sand agate
#

reee

#

one minute

#

how about now?

austere tree
#

that will get you the full potential out of the 2700

sand agate
#

alright

#

thank you

austere tree
#

that's a great board, it'll work well with the 3000 series launching tomorrow as well

sand agate
#

i would get one, but my budget constricts me

austere tree
#

alright, so

#

do you already have the 1050Ti?

sand agate
#

yea

austere tree
#

oh okay, i was gonna recommend the 1650 for the same money

sand agate
#

just my motherboard is a custom one by hp so it's smaller than a mini atx

austere tree
#

yeah, those SFF boards are a pain

sand agate
#

they are

#

i can't have all the light on my case on 😦

#

not enough ports lol

austere tree
#

yeah, i'm using a Dell board, it's mostly standard

sand agate
#

huh

trim swift
#

Do you guys have any suggestions on what kind of gaming monitor I can get for under 200 dollars I am upgrading my setup

sand agate
#

one sec i might have one for about 150

trim swift
#

Thank you

sand agate
#

np

#

im sure you could find better

#

but this is what i use and i like it

austere tree
#

you can do better than that

#

hold on

trim swift
#

And for the processor I was Thinking the Amd Ryzen 5 or should I go with intel?

austere tree
#

the R5 2600 is the sweet spot

#

fantastic price to performance

trim swift
#

Ok

austere tree
#

(can be found cheaper on amazon)

urban ferry
#

matts is 27 inches tho

austere tree
#

and a distinct lack of bezels

urban ferry
#

yeah

trim swift
#

And 5000 pings monitor looks like on my grandma uses

austere tree
#

me - 1 zack - 0

trim swift
#

Matts is better

urban ferry
#

CURVED

#

take that

trim swift
#

5000 ping actually found an ok on

#

*one

austere tree
#

that is a nice monitor

trim swift
#

And it’s curved

urban ferry
#

i like that one

#

it looks modern and has all the good features

#

and sub 200 by 5 cents lol

austere tree
#

taxes have entered the chat

urban ferry
#

SHHH

#

all of yours were above 200

austere tree
#

on newegg yeah

#

but they're cheaper in the rainforest

trim swift
#

The only thing 5000 ping is that my setup I am going with a black white and iceblue theme and the monitor has red on it

urban ferry
#

SPRAYPAINT

trim swift
#

Lol

#

Should I get the ducky one two mini for my keyboard?

austere tree
#

it's a great keyboard

trim swift
#

K also what kind of switch’s would be best

austere tree
#

that's entirely up to you

trim swift
#

What’s your preference

austere tree
#

i prefer browns

sharp blaze
#

reds are supposed to be soft, but I think they are louder than browns personally. I tend to bottom them out when typeing or gaming.

Anyone know if the company oloy has a good reputation for ram

weak hamlet

I wouldn't know, they are pretty brand new.

and really low prices.

Anyone know what time the new AMD stuff goes on sale tomorrow?

sand agate

I'm not sure

copper solar
#

6am pacific on Newegg site

urban ferry
#

theo you lost your opportunity

#

you coulda said in a couple days

#

and theyd all be sold out

gentle lintel
#

ty theo. Online retailers is about all I got. Not sure of any actual retail store selling any of this stuff near me.

#

Trying not to wait to much longer, no idea what's wrong with my current setup all my usb ports are dead except for two. Sound goes out if cases is bumped lol...

weak hamlet
#

sounds like loose wiring?

gentle lintel
#

I've double checked just about everything, but I don't think much can be done about anything inside the Motherboard

#

As the usb ports directly connected to the motherboard are dead, and the leds on the motherboard don't light up anymore either

#

Power issue, maybe but my graphics card and stuff still work in games so...

weak hamlet
#

yikes.

gentle lintel
#

Either way, this computer has been travelled with a lot to many lan parties and stuff. So it's been knocked around a bit.

weak hamlet

You've held off this long, what's another 12 hours for AMD zen2 πŸ˜‰

#

me right now.

gentle lintel

Yeah, I'm just scared of a slight breeze πŸ˜›

please don't sneeze.

It's just that feeling of I can't fix it and it's old. So I'm going to get something nice and new πŸ˜„

after you build it send pics to #build-pics for a chance to have NewEggplays showcase it on their Twitch stream

hasty marsh
#

lets go

ruby vale
#

do AMD cpus work well with nvidia gpus?

hasty marsh
#

yeah

#

doesnt matter between those two

#

nothing changes

#

you can have intel cpu with amd gpu

#

same thing other way around, no difference

#

other than bonus points for having both companies in one build ig? lmao

ruby vale
#

okay thanks, just trying to find places to save money

hasty marsh
#

all good

#

i have amd cpu with nvidia gpu myself too

ruby vale
#

and that still runs the same as intel and nvidia!?

hasty marsh
#

doesnt matter.

#

wont change anything

ruby vale
#

awesome

hasty marsh
#

idk why you would think there would be a problem just because its different companies lol, i dont think they would hate each other so much that they would restrict access if you had both

#

but ig some people have some misconceptions but that's alright

#

the more you know my friend

ruby vale
#

yeah, im just new to pc so just asking as mang questions as possible

hasty marsh
#

alright, that's fine to be curious if you're new

#

anything else that some of us might be able to answer for you?

ruby vale
#

yeah, what are threads in a cpu?

hasty marsh
#

ah

#

here's google

#

"It means that the CPU has 2 physical cores but can process 4 threads simultaneously through hyper threading or Simultaneous multithreading (SMT)."

#

is correct

ruby vale
#

is that why cpu’s have double the threads than cores?

hasty marsh
#

yes

ruby vale
#

except the i79700k

hasty marsh
#

"Having more threads than cores means useful work can be done while high-latency tasks are resolved"

#

that's exactly what it means

#

get more crap done man

ruby vale
#

ahhhhh okay that makes sense

hasty marsh
#

and easier to y

#

y'know

#

GAME

ruby vale
#

haha yeah, thanks man

hasty marsh
#

though you dont need THAT many cores if you wanna game a lot so dont worry

ruby vale
#

8 cores is alot for just gaming and streaming?

hasty marsh
#

it's good

#

i have 6 cores and 12 threads for my cpu

#

good for gaming

ruby vale
#

what cpu is that?

hasty marsh
#

suits my needs of gaming, bit of editing, and browsing

#

ryzen 5 2600x

urban ferry
#

6 core is great for general use and gaming

ruby vale
#

would you recommend r7 2700?

urban ferry
#

8 core is for more advanced stuff and streaming

hasty marsh
#

yeah

#

it's good

urban ferry
#

personally id go for the 2700x

#

however

hasty marsh
#

but like everyone knows.

#

wait.

#

what's the budget @ruby vale potato man

urban ferry
#

the next gen ryzen cpus come out tomorrow

hasty marsh
#

mHm

urban ferry
#

lol

ruby vale
#

@hasty marsh 1500

hasty marsh
#

nice

#

can get like an rtx 2070 or super or yeah

urban ferry
#

get a 3900x lol

hasty marsh
#

zack everytime i see your pfp

#

i cant take you seriously

urban ferry
#

tomorrrrrooowwwww

hasty marsh
#

though i cant speak

urban ferry
#

that is me

hasty marsh
#

because yeah

ruby vale
#

i was looking at the 2070

hasty marsh
#

im a laughing stock in a picture

#

@ruby vale wait a few days, then come back to us, then we can recommend the new cards and cpus to see which is best for your budget alright?

#

sound good?

ruby vale
#

okay! sounds good

hasty marsh
#

for now, just decide your psu ram and fans and case and accessories and whatnot

#

"and, and and and"

#

"AND"

urban ferry
#

may i recommend 3200mhz ram

hasty marsh
#

3000 and higher is perfect, better not to go below though you can

ruby vale
#

i already have 16gb or 3200mhz

hasty marsh
#

3000 or above is ideal bec the amd bois love their ram

urban ferry
#

a 650 or 750w psu rated 80 plus gold

hasty marsh
#

@ruby vale very g00d

#

750?

urban ferry
#

verrryyy niceeee

hasty marsh
#

for 1500 budget?

#

go higher, if he wants to futureproof

#

just in case there ever is.

#

y'know

#

y'know

urban ferry
#

1400w ftw

hasty marsh
#

y'KN0w

ruby vale
#

yee yee, probably go for a 800 if thats a thing

hasty marsh
#

dude, 1400 is a thing.

#

lol

urban ferry
#

and the new apple mac pro has it

hasty marsh
#

oh i forgot, your budget even allows for a 2080

#

this boi about to get the GOODS when that new stuff releases yo

#

im jealous. i want a 2060 super in the future

#

maybe a few years.

#

apple mac can die.

#

lol

urban ferry
#

ik ik

#

just saying

ruby vale
#

the goods haha yeah lol

hasty marsh
#

remember your schedule s0n

#

meet here after that new STuFf gets released for people to buy

#

you will wake up at 6 am.

#

SERGEANT

ruby vale
#

after the 3000 series comes out?

hasty marsh
#

anddd will buy some good parts

#

yep

ruby vale
#

yes sir

#

agreed

hasty marsh
#

πŸ‘‹

ruby vale
#

lmao

#

what mobo do you recommend for ryzen?

naive pendant
#

@ruby vale If you mean the new ryzen's coming out tomorrow, I'd recommend at least the 2nd series mobo's like x470, B450. I can show you some. They would need BIOS updates though, if you can, it's best to get the 3rd/newest gen mobo's.

hasty marsh
#

b450

#

oh he already said

#

lol

#

wait for x570 boards

urban ferry
#

x470 if u wanna overclock more

#

b450 is good for standard use

ruby vale
#

i dont think i will OC

urban ferry
#

and maybe a bit of overclocking

#

yeah

#

b450 is fine then

#

and yes that is a very good motherboard

ruby vale
#

okay very nice, ty

urban ferry
#

we do try to keep the shopping links to newegg tho

ruby vale
#

oh sorry i just searched up b450 mobo

#

and thats what came up lol

naive pendant
urban ferry
#

ur fine

#

pair that with 3200mhz ram, a 3000 series ryzen processor, and youve got urself one powerful machine

#

assuming 3000 series is good

#

which it should be

ruby vale
#

yeah hahaha, i think i will just stick to 2700x

naive pendant
#

@ruby vale oh you already have a 2700x?

ruby vale
#

no but thats what i was looking at

naive pendant
#

ok

hasty marsh
#

sergeant dont get it just yet

#

the 3rd gen stuff is good

#

wait a little

ruby vale
#

hahaha

rocky flame
#

2700x vs 3700x... whats the difference? Same cores and threads, but the 2700x is 100 bucks less

graceful flame
#

Better performance while using less power

rocky flame
#

User benchmark is not a good benchmarking website. ITs a bunch of bs, tbh

#

However, I have heard that the 3700 uses less power

graceful flame
#

Overall, even tho it's the same number of cores I'd say it's guaranteed better performance. Is it justified by the price over the 2700x??... I have no clue. But I personally am excited for the 3800x

rocky flame
#

I have a 700 W power supply so, I am not worried about W's

raw lynx
#

a streamer told me that the ryzen 5 2600x out performs the 7 2700x but idk

graceful flame
#

That streamer probably wasn't looking at base clock benchmarks tho

rocky flame
#

It isnt (literally) technically possible to outperform the 2700. The 2700 has 2 more cores and 4 more threads. It also has a .1 better base clock.

tulip flint
#

anyone know anything about corsair ram version numbers?

#

I've been having a lot of memory related BSODs since I put on an overclock, and today I realized that two of my ram kits don't match version numbers

#

same exact part number, and were ordered from the same amazon page...

weak hamlet
#

from different bins.

#

did you order the same time, or was there a gap between purchases

tulip flint
#

there was a gap... but why would they keep the same model number if they're getting changed

weak hamlet
#

different bins.

#

I had the same issue with their LPX ram

tulip flint
#

so am I basically **** out of luck?

urban ferry
#

i could be wrong, but isnt there software that comes with the ryzen 3000 series that finds a stable overclock for you?

sharp shore
#

anyone know where I can buy ryzen 5 3600 in the uk ? I tried on newegg uk and its there but doesnt work when going to checkout

weak hamlet
#

tecnically it's not out yet., even though you can buy it through bundles

#

but its release is 9am Pacific standard time.

sharp shore
#

ah okay cheers @weak hamlet

keen hazel
#

GUYS

#

DM ME IF YOU HAVE ANY DEALS OF 8 GGS OF RAM

#

ANYTHING UNDER 120

weak hamlet
#

really?

#

just search for it.

keen hazel
#

i did

#

It just i'm tired of it

#

amozon

#

horrible

#

i want to get a realy good deal

weak hamlet
#

don't we all.

keen hazel
#

obviously

#

I need 1 stick

dire patio
#

ddr4

keen hazel
#

yes

austere tree
#

so all you need is just 1 stick of 8GB?

dire patio
#

what frequency

keen hazel
#

3200

#

Yes

keen hazel
#

I want to do duel channel

#

it will help my pc so much more

dire patio
#

are you adding to existing ram

austere tree
#

you said and i quote " I need 1 stick"

keen hazel
#

yes

#

I already have a stick

austere tree
#

okay

keen hazel
#

mhm

austere tree
#

well there you go, i linked 1 stick

keen hazel
#

Thanks

dire patio
#

make you get the same ram or the timings could be off

austere tree
#

it would help, yeah

vague bolt
#

So I should get 3200mhz TridentZ RAM to pair with a Ryzen 3700X??

dire patio
#

that should be fine

vague bolt
#

Should I pay attention to CAS Latency?

dire patio
#

with ryzen the higher the frequency the better

vague bolt
#

I figured

#

so CL doesnt matter as much

dire patio
#

i don't think it does but i'm not sure

vague bolt
#

@austere tree whats your opinion

dire patio
#

the lower the cas latency the better

tulip flint
#

@keen hazel you know you can't just add a random stick of ram and run in dual channel right? the two sticks have to match

keen hazel
#

I know

#

I wanted to do it

#

but I barely realised it

#

The ram in that picture

#

I have that model

weak hamlet
#

download cpu-z

#

see what you have.

keen hazel
#

okay

weak hamlet
#

then find that exact stick

#

or get a whole new 2x8 set.

keen hazel
#

opkay I got it

#

so its DDR3 8 ggs of ram with a latency of 2008.8 NB frequency

dire patio
#

what cpu

keen hazel
#

oh

#

let me check

#

AMD FX 6300

dire patio
#

okay so not ryzen

keen hazel
#

nnope

near kraken
#

how soon can we expect a drop in intel prices to combat the new amd processors?

sterile flicker
#

Never

graceful flame
#

Forget about intel for now

modest grove
#

how much will the 3rd gen amd prices range?

urban ferry
#

well

#

theyre out

#

so

#

:D

gentle lintel
#

Now the big question of how long to restock πŸ˜›

sand agate
#

will a AMD Ryzen 7 2700 beat any of the new ryzen 3000? I'm looking for more of a gaming/youtube side of cpu

hoary ingot
#

2700X is doing well in benchmarking videos

sand agate
#

i'm looking at the 2700 not the 2700X because of price

crisp citrus
#

I was supposed to get a 2600 but microcenter ran out so I got a free upgrade to the 2700

sand agate
#

yea?

crisp citrus
#

havent overclocked becuase of stock cooler but it runs well

#

like recording while gaming, etc works great

sand agate
#

do you know if it would allow me to run rust with a 1050 ti at medium graphics at least?

crisp citrus
#

I run with a 1050ti as well and it runs all my games at at least 60fps while recording

sand agate
#

do you know what the heaviest game you have is?

crisp citrus
#

gta 5 I run on low settings but I think I get 60fps? I havent played in a while though so that might be wrong

sand agate
#

alright, thank you

crisp citrus
#

its really a huge gpu bottleneck tbh

sand agate
#

the 1050?

crisp citrus
#

cause my cpu never goes above 20% lol

sand agate
#

oof

crisp citrus
#

yeah

#

looking to upgrade soon tbh

sand agate
#

i just bought the 1050 because it was on sale and i needed a graphics card, the one i got with a prebuilt hp desktop fried itself overnight while pc was in sleep

crisp citrus
#

thats rough

sand agate
#

ye

#

now im learning a cpu upgrade will need to be soon so i though why not do it all at once, which also means new power supply and motherboard

crisp citrus
#

was it still under warranty?

sand agate
#

no

crisp citrus
#

damn

#

thats the advantage of prebuilts

sand agate
#

warranty ended like half a year before

#

yea

crisp citrus
#

im still running an old 600w thermaltake psu, it really scares me sometimes

#

just hoping it doesnt explode lol

sand agate
#

lol

#

all i have is a 150w hp

#

running on bare bones

crisp citrus
#

yeah that might be a bit under powered

sand agate
#

maybe only a little bit

#

looking at a 650w evga one though

crisp citrus
#

yeah ive been looking for something with a better rep

sand agate
#

yea, problem with pc parts is price, I always want the best for what i can get but with pc videos i watch it makes me want more

crisp citrus
#

yeah

#

tricking yourself into thinking you need more than yo uactually do

sand agate
#

yup

#

would have bought a better pc to begin with but i wanted to have a console to play with some friends too, so i bought a ps4 and tv for it, then another monitor for my pc, and that probably contributed to my graphics card dying

tulip patio
#

2700 would be great for that but the 6 core 3000 comes really close if not matching it in most use cases

#

3000 beats it in gaming

#

2700 is still a great cpu for that though

tulip patio
#

not seeing much of a reason to upgrade from 2700x

sand agate
#

no, im upgrading to the 2700 not the 2700x

tulip patio
#

right

#

sorry...was talking about me πŸ˜ƒ

sand agate
#

thats fine

#

computers make ye do it

tulip patio
#

2700 is a very solid CPU though

#

some very aggressive pricing out there

sand agate
#

yea i have a intel i5 7400 right now

tulip patio
#

gotcha

sand agate
#

yea prices are the worst part of upgrading or building a pc

ripe girder
#

get x470

tulip patio
#

agreed

ripe girder
#

x570 not worth it

#

unless you need super fast, fast, fast ssds

tulip patio
#

there are some solid 470 boards out there

gentle lintel
#

Deciding and reading reviews is the worst part of building a PC

tulip patio
#

it can be confusing

ripe girder
#

I have the gigabyte gaming wifi

gentle lintel
#

Yeah I watched a few review videos and decided, and now I don't have anything lol

#

granted those few review videos and write ups actually took me a few hours to decide lol

sand agate
#

it takes me days lol

gentle lintel
#

Hoping the 3000 stuff is back in stock somewhere in a reasonable amount of time though

sand agate
#

ye

The worst part is, I knew it was going to sell out and I lost track of time comparing everything lol

#

Really needed the benchmarks and stuff yesterday πŸ˜›

ye things sell out fast when it's fast or just good in general

is the 3600 x worth it compared to the 3600? Performance is about the same.

#

not really sure the 3600 and the 3600x comparison is kind of just odd to me. on paper they look almost the same, 3600x has a little higher clocks and higher TDP.

you could probably overclock it more idk

#

But to figure that out, someone would have to test that comparison.

#

Most of the benchmarks, reviews and OC are about the 3700 and up

#

I've found some about the 3600 and x already

#

Seems like it's a smidge better

#

I'll probably shoot for it

#

I'm going to wait for the 3700 or 3900 to become available again

#

looking forward to seeing more on the 3800 and 3600x

#

tech deals did a review of the 3600x today

#

3700x and 3900x both look amazing but can't justify upgrading from a 2700x

#

I'm not even ryzen so it's a huge upgrade.

#

if you don't need to upgrade that's fine

#

the thing is, if you're comfortable now

#

you can just wait as long as you want until newer, even better stuff comes out
