5950x in the middle to show you that the overall score is from all threads

#

@paper hill 5600x has stock cooler, 3700x has good stock cooler.

#

sooo

#

doesn't matter either way

#

:D

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:10 PM

#

oh true

#

sometimes ppl sett without cooler

#

I got a question tho

#

i like rgb

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

3700x comes with wraith prism

#

great rgb

#

5600x is likely to come with prism too

fluid gorge Oct 29, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

@hollow thorn the r7 has a small amount more of score in cpu mark

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

a tiny amount

#

within margin of error

#

you gotta remember they only have 2 samples for the 5600x

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

so should i get the fury rgb 3200hz with 16 gb

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

so the number is a bit rough

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

bc of the price

#

or should i got for the pred with no rgb

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:12 PM

#

@paper hill for what cpu

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

i think a r5 4556 something like that

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

wha

#

excuse me

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

i know it doesnt got zeros in it

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

then it's not a ryzen chip

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:13 PM

#

ill brb

#

i got the chip

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:14 PM

#

I can't think of any consumer chip that doesn't have a 0 lol

#

like even intel chips are like 4770k

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:14 PM

#

my

#

b

#

intel i5 -3470

#

my dad had a spare pc so i use it for school work

#

but im upgrading soon

#

so should i go for a new build

#

or should i just upgrade my pc?

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:15 PM

#

your machine uses ddr3

#

its a dead platform

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:15 PM

#

That doesn't even use ddr4 ram..

#

oop wifi is being spotty again

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

no it gots corsair vengance ddr4

#

no rgb tho

#

real qucik

#

do u guys have a nice glass case?

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

you sure? because the i5-3470 only supports ddr3

paper hill Oct 29, 2020, 6:16 PM

#

thats what ima focus on

#

Im 100%

#

it may not have the 3470

#

but its an i5 intel

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:17 PM

#

...

#

there's like 50 i5 chips

#

no joke

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:19 PM

#

We can help with a new pc

#

If you want

#

Give us budget and anything you can reuse, and we give you a list.

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:25 PM

#

@paper hill just going to say something you most likely wont like to hear: But if you cannot even be bothered to look up a small detail like that? i would strongly recommend that you get a prebuilt. Because are you ever in for a "fun" time building your own.

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:26 PM

#

Heh

#

Or, to be reworded, "There's a ton more for you to learn if you want to build your own, and it will be an annoying process"

sly vessel Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

I learned the hard way. My first build, I did like no research outside of the compatibility checker on pcpartpicker.

#

My board died within 6 months.

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

nothing prevents that @sly vessel

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

(unless it was a component compatibility issue)

sly vessel Oct 29, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

Nah, but it was a cheap board

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

@hollow thorn then it would not have worked in the first place

sly vessel Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

Also I definitely didn't get the best value for my money

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:29 PM

#

cheap/expensive <- neither matters for what you describe @sly vessel

#

its just a bad roll of the statistics dice

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:30 PM

#

@gritty meadow I mean like 10900k on a poor h410 type of compatibility

#

As in one part isn't rated to work well enough with another

#

Or like trying to Daisy chain 10 fans off a single 1a header

#

That kind of thing

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

neither of those will kill the board

#

they might kill the fan header

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

Hm? I would imagine the second to

#

First I'd imagine damage to VRMs over time

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

boards are a LOT harder to kill than people think

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:31 PM

#

Because cheap boards usually don't have efficient VRMs, and don't cool them well

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

but people are also a LOT sillier than the engineers making the boards plan for

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

Or do VRMs don't care about high temps, and only perform bad at high temps?

#

Ofc.

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

generally just bad perf

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

Ah

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

(yes yes, there is a limit etc)

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

I thought it'd slowly kill it

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:32 PM

#

slowly is not a year

#

its years generally

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

Ah

#

Gotcha

#

I think of months as a long time

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

generally, the manufacturers would be "happy" if boards died a week after warranty

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:33 PM

#

Ofc

#

Profit :)

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:34 PM

#

but generally, boards dying inside of warranty? bad with extra bad (for their bottom line)

#

and yes, ofc there are exceptions (there ARE bad board designs, just like anything else)

#

but rule of thumb: things dont just "die" after 6 months

#

and if they do. Thats what you have warranty for

#

and you get to test if you have backed up your BS

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:36 PM

#

I see

gritty meadow Oct 29, 2020, 6:40 PM

#

this ofc does NOT exclude a user just flat out fibbing up a storm about what has actually happended to the hardware

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:41 PM

#

ofc

sly vessel Oct 29, 2020, 6:42 PM

#

I mean I'm not

#

but whatever

#

this server's mad salty all the time anyway

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 6:43 PM

#

@sly vessel that wasn't directed at you

#

for you, it was still just you got unlucky with a board that died

#

I was just talking to Naed about theoretical stuff

can a ryzen 3 1300 use 3600 ram

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 9:49 PM

#

I don’t think so and if it can why would you put that much in it

#

It can use the ram but not a 3600 speed is my guess

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 9:50 PM

#

@green mason 99% chance no

#

It won't run at 3600mhz

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 9:51 PM

#

aaaaahhhh'

#

now ill have to tune it lower

#

ok so any suggestions my friend went ahead and bought it

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 9:53 PM

#

How much are 1300 now

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 9:53 PM

he had a prebuilt

a 500$ prebuilt

hollow thorn Oct 29, 2020, 9:53 PM

ryzen 3 1300

#

and one stick of 8 gigs of ram

#

he was useing a hhd

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 9:55 PM

#

Oh that’s why it has an older cpu it’s a prebuilt

#

Lol

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 9:55 PM

that and you cant even get new ryzen 3's

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 9:56 PM

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 9:56 PM

you cant buy them at msrp

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 9:57 PM

The ryzen 3100 you can get for 99 on adorma

Plus shipping

Which for me is only $5

📎 image0.png

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 9:58 PM

id bet it can run 3000 speed

still

as my ryzen 7 2700X runs 3200

no not really cores dont matter so much in gameing

its mostly single thread preformance

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:02 PM

#

oh okay

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

but cores matter for just about everything else

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

i heard amd new processor can beat intel in everything now

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

yep

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

I would say the preferred cores for a pc is 6

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

the 5000 series comes out on November 5th

#

beats them in everything

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

should i wait or buy the amd ryzen 7 3700x?

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:03 PM

#

except for price

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

#

Yeah just if i had 300 dollars for a cpu

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

but either way its gonna be out of stock fast for sure

so i got no clue what processor to buy

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

What gpu are you getting

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

what do you plan on playing and whats your budget

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

uhh around $1200

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

thats a good budget

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:04 PM

Ok so 3070

green mason Oct 29, 2020, 10:05 PM

probably not @whole frost

im probably not gonna get my hands on it untl next year

1200 will get you a solid 3070 build and a little more will be a 3080 build

#

worth the wait

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:05 PM

#

But i need one right now

#

the rtx 2070 super are wayy to overpriced right now

heady root Oct 29, 2020, 10:06 PM

#

could get a cheap placeholder

#

like $100

#

used rx 570/580 maybe

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:06 PM

i was thinking to getting a rx5700xt

but idk

#

or maybe wait for amd new graphics card

Why are the rtx 2000 series so overpriced atm

heady root Oct 29, 2020, 10:08 PM

i usually stick with a ryzen 5 3600

Holy crap rtx are not bad on used market

#

215 bid that ends today for 2060

naive pendant Oct 29, 2020, 10:09 PM

yeah but i rather buy a new one

is a amd ryzen 7 3700x with a 5700xt a good build?

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:09 PM

It doesn’t really matter you just don’t get a warranty

whole frost Oct 29, 2020, 10:09 PM

heady root Oct 29, 2020, 10:09 PM

I have a asrock steel legend mobo and corsair vegeance 3200 16 gigs of ram

tall storm Oct 30, 2020, 1:47 AM

#

lmao how does apple beat amd to 5nm

#

@carmine lynx try upping your FCKLK or whatever its called to 1600 (I'm not sure if this is default with XMP)

midnight pollen Oct 30, 2020, 1:49 AM

#

apple has a lot of resources

tall storm Oct 30, 2020, 1:50 AM

#

lol yeah i think they took TSMC's thing for AMD and just lisenced it or whatever

#

no wait

#

Apple uses ARM

#

yeah so ARM architecture with TSMC 5nm

#

makes sense

graceful sonnet Oct 30, 2020, 4:20 AM

#

what would be the cheapest or best value cpu that wouldnt bottleneck a rx 6800?

gritty meadow Oct 30, 2020, 4:26 AM

#

you can say that the other vendors should be happy that apple is willing to spend that amount of money on 5nm foundry production

#

it all helps in bringing wafer cost down

mmmmm wafers 😋

yummy silicone wafer performance make me bbbbbbrrrrrrrrr😋

@graceful sonnet xD why do u want the cheapest cpu possible? just get a less powerful gpu and balance ur system :P

#

graphics aren't everything u know

but, considering their quite ... fluid sense of time ... wait until you actually see them in the shops before you start planning to potentially buy them

graceful sonnet Oct 30, 2020, 6:24 PM

@neat glacier yeah but I don’t want to have to upgrade the gpu for a while

@neat glacier buh yeah ig ur right

whats a good cpu on the lga 1151 chipset

hollow thorn Oct 30, 2020, 9:43 PM

#

why?

#

lga1151 isn't a chipset btw, it's a socket.

loud spindle Oct 30, 2020, 9:44 PM

#

thats what i meant

#

my bad

hollow thorn Oct 30, 2020, 9:44 PM

#

What chipset

#

Because there's like 3 generations of chipsets on LGA1151 that aren't compatible with chips from other generations.

loud spindle Oct 30, 2020, 9:45 PM

#

8th gen or 9th gen

What exact kit and what motherboard?

carmine lynx Oct 31, 2020, 12:42 AM

#

its 3200mhz and the motherboard is the b450 steel legend

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 12:43 AM

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 12:44 AM

#

Try doing it manually

carmine lynx Oct 31, 2020, 12:45 AM

and what happens if I mess up?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 12:49 AM

#

Reset cmos

hushed aurora Oct 31, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

Hi! I am not sure but I'm pretty sure I fried my cpu. If I put it into a different motherboard will it kill that board?

fallen lynx Oct 31, 2020, 3:01 AM

#

probably not

#

what makes you think its the CPU and not something else?

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 3:05 AM

#

@hollow thorn so I been tinkering with my motherboard this evening installed my cpu and cpu cooler plugged in the cpu fan. Generally what is the cpu optional header next to the cpu fan header for?

#

Also just curious is it better to keep that tiny switch on the stock amd cooler at Low or High? It's already at L so I figured I'd keep it there since people say it makes it significantly louder on high

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 3:59 AM

#

wha

#

CPU_OPT?

#

might be fan header that's just labeled as a secondary CPU fan header

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 4:10 AM

#

@hollow thorn yeah I think so

vast granite Oct 31, 2020, 4:44 AM

#

I don't think there's rumors but out of speculation is there a chance at a 5700 cpu from amd at some point or did they just drop the 700?

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 5:56 AM

#

just like the GPU product stack, we dont know the full stack yet

#

there will be cheaper models, we just dont know when and at what price

vast granite Oct 31, 2020, 6:02 AM

#

Dang was hoping for a new 3700x in the 5000 series basically

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 6:07 AM

#

nothing i said prevents that from happening at some point

vast granite Oct 31, 2020, 6:09 AM

Is ryzen better than intel?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 3:31 PM

@hushed canopy in what context

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 3:39 PM

#

@hushed canopy in what context
@hollow thorn in performance for gaming

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 3:48 PM

#

What chip versus what chip?

#

Like are you trying to compare a 3100 to a 10900k, a 5600x to a 10600k, etc?

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 3:53 PM

3000 to 9 gen and 10 gen

#

Which CPU-brand is better if I'm wanting to build a server: AMD, or Intel?

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 4:57 PM

depends on workload and scale

(and budget ofc)

haughty delta Oct 31, 2020, 5:00 PM

I'm planning on using it to run a Discord bot I made, and my bf's bot, and maybe an MC server as well

Whatd the budget

haughty delta Oct 31, 2020, 5:21 PM

Tbh... still thinking about that...

#

At the least.. perhaps 1000

#

Maybe more

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 5:33 PM

#

@hushed canopy generally Ryzen is better for multitasking intensive design and editing and Intel is better for single core processing like gaming. But that is likely changing with the new lineup of ryzens but in terms of the 3000 series cpus from ryzen vs the 10k of intel you'll get a slightly higher frame rate from intel but you'll usually pay more for an Intel than a ryzen making ryzen usually a better value depending on what you wanna do

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

@worn night so the ryzen 3000s is better than inetl 9k or is it the same? And thank you

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 5:51 PM

#

In terms of what?

#

frame rate?

#

Also what would you like to compare? the 3700X to a 9700K?

#

like what CPU did you have in mind? 5s, 7s, or 9s?

safe geode Oct 31, 2020, 5:57 PM

#

anyone mind helping me rq im trying to find a 500 series motherboard with the flashback button on the motherboard for zen 3 i cant really seem to make a good decision

#

was gonna get an x570 tuf then realized i wouldnt be able to flash it

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 5:58 PM

#

B550 board are probably a better deal

safe geode Oct 31, 2020, 5:58 PM

#

yeah just need one with a flashback bios button cause i dont have a cpu to do that

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

Also what would you like to compare? the 3700X to a 9700K?
@worn night yea the 3700x to whatever 9k is best

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 6:07 PM

#

I mean are you looking to buy a 3700X? @hushed canopy

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 6:09 PM

#

No i already have my build with a 3700x, but is for a friend asking

worn night Oct 31, 2020, 6:11 PM

#

So i've seen some bench mark videos that have 3700x outcompeting a 9700K in gaming but generally you might get a slight frame rate increase in a i7 vs a Ryzen 7 3700x

#

If i remember correctly the Ryzen has 8 cores and 16 threads, the 9700K has 8 cores 8 threads. Between those two I'd say the Ryzen 7 is better those two are around the same price tho and the i7 9700K has higher clock speeds which could give more frames

#

It really depends what your friend wants to do

#

It's funny you could watch some comparison videos of the two being tested in games the i7 will have like maybe on average 5 more frames. But usage is important too so say the 9700K will be running 100 fps at 80-90% usage of the CPU. Youll see the Ryzen 3700X running like 90-95 fps but on only 50% usage so with this in mind you have some headroom to do some multitasking at the same time such as streaming or running multiple programs in the background

#

That's why i kinda like it more

#

If you want a complete CPU then take the 3700X if you maybe a competitive gamer and you want all the frames you can get then probably the 9700K

hushed canopy Oct 31, 2020, 6:28 PM

#

Oh ok I see, Thank u

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:21 PM

#

do yall think that intel processers prices will drop once zen 3 comes out so more people will buy intel for budget builds?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

@naive pendant New pricing never drop due to new generations

#

look at RTX 20xx when 3090/3080/3070 dropped

#

the prices stayed constant

#

look at Ryzen 2000 when Ryzen 3000 dropped

#

the prices stayed constant

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

true

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:25 PM

#

look at Rx 5700/xt when RTX 3070 dropped

#

the prices stayed constant

#

there's no reason for new prices to change

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

yeah

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

for the used market (ebay), sure it might change

#

but for the new market (Amazon/Newegg/B&H/etc), it won't change due to new generations.

#

hell, 1080ti from 3 generations ago is still selling at 700$+, the original MSRP.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:26 PM

#

but honestly if intel drops prices when zen 3 comes out it would be smarter cause zen 3 processors are gonna be superior so idk

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

It's only wishful thinking.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

nobody will use intel

#

yeah ig

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

guys is a ROG Strix B 450 F gaming MOBO good?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

@naive pendant apply that logic to Ryzen 1st gen

#

there was literally no reason to buy it, Intel was better in basically every way, and there were a lot of issues with ram compatibility etc

#

yet it still sold

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:27 PM

#

yeah true

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

and remember

#

People like Intel

#

it's only wishful thinking that new pricing will drop

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

over the course of history, prices very rarely drop because of new tech being launched

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:28 PM

#

yeah

#

zen 3 processers cost a lot

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

im trying to find a motherboard for my 3070, is the ROG Strix B 450 F gaming good?

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

so people are defo gonna use intel and 2nd generation amd

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

so far.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

yeah

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

@autumn fossil GPU does not in any way affect motherboard choice. CPU does.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

#

well its for my whole setup

#

mk then I guess ima get it

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:29 PM

then tell us the rest of your "whole setup" :P

Can't make a decision off 10% of the information required

ive heard that amds new gpus might be better and more affordable then nvidias 30 series

right now I have a R 5 3400 cpu, gonna get a 3600, and then I have 16gb of ram

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

@autumn fossil IF you are going 3070, at least do yourself the favour of going b550 for the mainboard chipset

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

:/

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

@autumn fossil what games are you going to need the 3070 for?

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

(if you are in actual need of a mainboard that is)

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

Oh and by the way, on the "Zen 3 processors cost a lot" statement, CPUs are priced reasonably based off how they value the CPU.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:30 PM

#

cold war, maybe cyberpunk

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

For example, 5600x is 300$, price matching 10600k.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

other games of the sort

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

There's reasoning behind everything.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

3070 is kinda unnecessary for those games

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

I would have gone with th 3080 :?

#

:/

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

u could use a 20 series and play perfectly fine

#

tbh

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

#

@naive pendant except, you dont know.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:31 PM

but I just want the 3007

#

3070

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:32 PM

Oh yea, you didn't even ask for resolution :D

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:32 PM

cyberpunk will defo be fine with 20 series

#

"will defo be fine"?

how would you know

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

yeah i did

#

in shipping

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:32 PM

#

when the game isn't even out yet >:D

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

i find you faith in your deep understanding of a game that is not out yet, to be truly fascinating @naive pendant

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

cus look at the minimum and recommended specs for cyberpunk. recommended never said "u should get a 30 series gpu"

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:33 PM

#

ofc it doesnt

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:34 PM

#

apply that logic to some other games maybe ;)

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:34 PM

#

look at the original crysis requirements @naive pendant

#

please tell me that anything in those made it actually run "good"

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:34 PM

#

k lemme look

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

oh yea, an example that I've experienced

#

Ark

#

Reccomends 1050ti

#

I have a 2070, can't get over 90fps.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:35 PM

#

reccomended is a gtx 1060 or an amd radeon r9 fury and compare that to a 30 series

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

that is remastered @naive pendant

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:36 PM

#

it is?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:36 PM

We're talking about the OG crysis

NONE of that was even remotely enough to play it nicely at a decent resolution

and hes getting a 30 series though

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

Even low end hardware today might have trouble.

#

We're giving you examples of how "recommended" doesn't mean crap

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

ok

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:37 PM

#

the lesson you should be getting from this @naive pendant

#

Dont be so sure based off recommended specs

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

but compare that gpu to like a 2060 or 2070. he could still be playing without bad performance probably

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

mmm

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:38 PM

#

not sure though

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:38 PM

@autumn fossil for now, just hang tight.

#

mhm

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

haha

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

its a conversation about blanket statements being bad.

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

@naive pendant but how do you know when the game isn't even out yet :D

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:39 PM

#

i was assuming cus when u compare that gpu to a 20 series its noticably differeent

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

oh and by the way, with the GTX 1060 recommended for Crysis remastered, a RTX 3080 barely gets 60+fps on max settings on Crysis remastered.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

but does it run well?

vast granite Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

but how the game performs on a 20 series isnt even known cuz its not out

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

@autumn fossil long story short. IF you have the budget for a 500-ish USD GPU, the 3070 is a decent choice.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

not sure just asking

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

It's not released yet

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

@naive pendant you seemed to think so.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:40 PM

#

@vast granite im assuming

only some people have been given the demo

k

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:41 PM

So i bought the 3070, and I need more hardware to work perfectly with it?

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:41 PM

#

and @naive pendant its not that we are trying to jump on you. Its that people that lurk can easily take things out of context.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:41 PM

okay

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:41 PM

It's a good choice still

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:42 PM

thats why, I was going to get a 3080 but it was a little over the top

And having to clear up that kind of mess .. is just annoying for everyone involved :)

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:42 PM

and if you're looking for a list of everything else, I can make that in a bit.

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

ok

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:42 PM

#

well the last thing I need is a R 5 3600 cpu in my opinion

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:42 PM

I think you should get a 5600x if possible :D

my cpu right now will bottleneck

#

let me check it out

#

$300

#

hmm

#

the 3600 is 200 but I guess I can get the 5600x

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:43 PM

#

i am still strongly leaning on the 8cores (when possible in builds, even for the zen3 models) @hollow thorn

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

I see

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

so i am very much looking forward to seeing exactly how that 3600/X VS 5600x performs on nov 5th

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

me too

#

But well, I still have the same mindset Crysis had a decade ago - Faster single core perf

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

aye aye

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

but a r5 3600 isnt really old so would it bottleneck with a 3070?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:44 PM

#

and 5800x pricing is really off-putting imo.

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

and i will happily admit that i am thinking very very long term with my 8core opinion here.

#

aye aye, its not remotely as nice as the 3700x price.

@hollow thorn i agree its why I was looking forward for a 5700x

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:45 PM

#

I checked the compatibility between the 2 and it showed that it wouldnt, or at least very little

The best investment rn would def be an RTX 3090, then you can play games 🤓

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:47 PM

:/

#

nope, too much

#

overkill

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:47 PM

i saw an asus tuf 3090 for 3k in stock on amazon last night lmao

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:47 PM

#

@worn night replace "best" with "biggest" and you got yourself a good sentence

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

yup

#

indeed

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

3090 is kinda overkill

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:48 PM

#

it is

It's a great budget GPU Oh_No

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:49 PM

oh yeah thats right, Im gonna get another set of ram :/

#

its gonna be overkill but, just why not

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:49 PM

#

tbh 3070 would be the only 30 series gpu i would actually get

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:49 PM

indeed

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:49 PM

@autumn fossil could you make a list in pcpp of your current machine?

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:50 PM

the 3080 and 3090 are unnecessary for the games i play

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

of what I have right now?

#

or what im going to get

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:50 PM

#

that would give us a starting point to reference when talking about parts you want to get

#

a list of what you have NOW

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:51 PM

oh alright

how do u make lists with a different currency other than usd?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:52 PM

#

Different regions

#

For example, uk.pcpartpicker.com would get you UK sellers with currency in GBP

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

oh ok

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

au.pcpartpicker.com would get you Australian sellers with currency in AUD

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 7:53 PM

#

@naive pendant upper right is the simple answer :)

naive pendant Oct 31, 2020, 7:53 PM

so i would do cad.pcpartpicker.com for cad currency?

oh ok

like my case and fans and leds

?

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:56 PM

What else exactly do you have?

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:57 PM

#

a 250gb Sata ssd

#

and yeah what I said before

#

im already going to replace the cpu

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

I'm just going to assume everything is exactly what is on the list

#

and the 250gb ssd has dram

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

I have 4 rgb fans, 1 led strip, um and the case is from digital storm

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

eek

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 7:59 PM

#

its because I bought my pc prebuilt, (worst mistake ever)

#

and then I started to add from their

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

when the time comes, I'd swap to B550m pro4 and 5600x or something like that for CPU+Mobo at the same time

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

i upgraded to the 450 :/

#

b 450

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

Because B550 doesn't support 3xxx APUs

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

:/

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:00 PM

#

and B450 has spotty compatibility with 5th gen Ryzen

#

as in, it's only going to start to come in iirc January/February

#

and only on select boards, not all boards

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

mmm

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

and a 3400g is kinda

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

i cant go from 450 to 550 just yet

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

yea I'd upgrade

#

eek

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:01 PM

#

yeah ik, i will

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:02 PM

#

so, 3600/3700 is your next step then

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

is that what you reccomend?

#

oops i typed it wrong

#

or should i get something else

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:03 PM

#

its what your words leave as the only logical choice if you want to pair it with a 3070

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:04 PM

#

so then the 3600 i guess

#

i really dont know anymore :/

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

when do you plan on upgrading parts @autumn fossil ?

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:06 PM

#

the cpu is the main one,

#

maybe being towards the end of this year, or starting next year

#

if I can earlier tho

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

for now, focus on trying to get the gpu

#

yes, your cpu aint ideal for it

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

thats right

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

but it will be a massive upgrade for you

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:07 PM

#

yup

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

the rest can come as you go really

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:08 PM

#

i get the gpu next week wedndesday

#

mmm, my typing is bad

#

so basically the 3600 is the only thing I can really get at this point

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

yes/no

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

mmm

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

you can get anything from the 3000 series

#

but 3600/3700 are the only ones that make any sense

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:09 PM

#

Should i get a x570 Aorus Elite or b550 mag tomahawk with a Ryzen 5 5600x (or 3000 series) or just wait for am5

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

alright cool

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

(as long as you are on that mainboard)

#

but

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:10 PM

#

@granite plume what do you have now

#

And what are you looking to do with it?

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

Something that must be upgraded urgently and gaming

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

keep in mind: IF your mainboard OEM decides that your board gets bios support for the 5000 chips, then you could upgrade to that. But we wont know anything about that until january at the earliest (is my estimate) @autumn fossil

#

@granite plume AM5 = not something that will arrive for anything "urgent"

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:11 PM

#

@granite plume okay, do you have anything specific you're looking for in a motherboard? Because you can get a motherboard for a lot cheaper than those two and do most of the same things.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

@gritty meadow i see, so your telling me if the MB supports it, i should get a cpu from the 5000 series?

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:12 PM

#

aye, might as well @autumn fossil :)

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

But remember, that's an "if" you can't answer for another 2 months or so, so I wouldn't bet on it.

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

i see, well thanks that helps, it narrowed my options down quite alot

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

you are very welcome @autumn fossil

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

@granite plume AM5 = not something that will arrive for anything "urgent"
@gritty meadow yea but i want to go with 5600x and bacause is the last gen for am4 and i dont Know if it will be supported on Am5 (most likely not) and if i should just wait or get a 3000 series

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:13 PM

#

sorry we cannot give you a more "yes/no" answer

autumn fossil Oct 31, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

nah its all good, just as long as my cpu and gpu combo work fairly well @gritty meadow

gritty meadow Oct 31, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

AM5= new ram = no support for zen3 and earlier

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:14 PM

#

I'm just going to give you a reference to what I would wait to get, a 5600x with a B550m pro4. 300$ cpu and 105$ motherboard.

#

But my question is, do you have any need for a motherboard better than a pro4?

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

I mean if it has good vrm and io as well i dont think so

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:17 PM

#

Heh, why do you think you need good VRMs?

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:19 PM

#

Look if it works till Am5 and ddr5 becomes the norm and affordable as well i think it works good

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:20 PM

#

I'm asking that because it's an interesting topic that's hard to quantify and doesn't really matter to the average consumer at the end of the day. (Beyond it works and doesn't start a fire)

#

Check the io if you want, I think it's good enough on the pro4.

granite plume Oct 31, 2020, 8:22 PM

#

Checked it already but realtek i dunno i heard some people had problems with realtek

#

But i dunno if on this mobo tough

hollow thorn Oct 31, 2020, 8:24 PM

#

Uh

#

What part of realtek

(My budget for the system is at the least 1000 (or maybe more))

hollow thorn Nov 1, 2020, 5:13 AM

Server usually means EPYC/TR for most people, but a server in that case should benefit from the more threads offered by Ryzen.

@crystal flume what? Lol

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:06 AM

nevermind

loud escarp Nov 1, 2020, 11:07 AM

Its the boards because of the cpu/gpu right?

#

Ohhhhh @crystal flume I didnt mean that to be an answer to your question lol, that was for me cause I cant choose between the boards im sorry for the confusion

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:10 AM

#

it will work 😉

#

I dont think you will need to flash bios but I could be wrong

#

you should probably flash even if it does work out of the box looks like a lot of performance increase on the F31 bios for x570's

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:14 AM

#

but wont i need an older gen ryzen to flash the bios?

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:16 AM

#

that is the rub

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:16 AM

#

😦

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:16 AM

#

I would try like a local computer repair shop if you dont know anyone that has one they shouldn't charge much for a bios update

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:17 AM

#

ha

#

everything is expensive here

#

locally i mean

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:17 AM

#

or buy a pc from best buy that has a older ryzen and return it after flashing bios = free

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:18 AM

#

theres no such thing as a best buy here

#

:p

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:18 AM

#

or a walmart or anyplace that sells PCs

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:18 AM

#

i guess

#

according to google most x570s should work with ryzen 5000 right out of the box

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:19 AM

#

Also remember that you must not spend too much otherwise you are better off just buying a new $150ish motherboard that doesnt need flashed

#

s

#

I think it might too

#

and then you can flash it no problem for the performance increase

compatibility and reliability sound pretty important but than they say pleasant experience like you would just have a less than pleasant experience if you dont update....?

crystal flume Nov 1, 2020, 11:27 AM

the main reasons i went with the steel legend cause of the silver accents and it was fairly cheaper than other mobos

pastel monolith Nov 1, 2020, 11:28 AM

fallen lynx Nov 1, 2020, 5:29 PM

#

what is the rest of your build? usually fast RAM like that isn't worth the premium

#

especially if it is a Ryzen CPU

naive pendant Nov 1, 2020, 5:35 PM

#

yeah it is a ryzen the 12 core ryzen 9 3900x

#

and a x570

#

and a 3080

#

(coming)

fallen lynx Nov 1, 2020, 5:39 PM

for ryzen generally 3600 is the sweet spot

fallen lynx Nov 1, 2020, 5:43 PM

also, get 32 not 16

dusky flicker Nov 1, 2020, 5:45 PM

#

You could always get a 3200 for slightly cheaper and OC it or try too.

#

If you want to get 32GB

#

Cause 32GB is expensive but it is recommended for streaming.

600 is fine

Does the 3070 not have powerspikes?

heady root Nov 1, 2020, 11:55 PM

you can run it on even less than 600

fresh river Nov 1, 2020, 11:55 PM

I couldve sworn 750 was recommended

heady root Nov 1, 2020, 11:56 PM

for 3070 iirc 650 was recommended

#

and if you're going 650w 80+ gold get a phanteks amp

fresh river Nov 1, 2020, 11:56 PM

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:30 AM

any b550/x570 board works for that

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

I know

#

I have a b450 steel legend

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

then waiting for January and seeing what the official support looks like at that point is your best bet :)

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

what I might do

#

is get the cpu and ask for a x570 for christmas

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:31 AM

#

b550 is plenty

#

no benefit as such from the x570 for regular consumers

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:32 AM

#

fair enough

#

im hopefully getting the 3080 lian li 011 mid tower and a aio

#

and ll120 fans

#

another question

#

so I tried turning on xmp and I got the motherboard and it just freezes

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:36 AM

#

try and see if you can dial in the XMP settings manually instead

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:36 AM

#

aight

#

if I do mess up

#

is there any major consequences

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:38 AM

#

nah, just reset bios and try again

#

its as simple as that really

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:38 AM

#

aight bet

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:53 AM

#

so if you do get a x570/b550 mobo will it be able to support 5000 series out the box or will you need to flash it

gritty meadow Nov 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

out of the box

carmine lynx Nov 2, 2020, 2:54 AM

#

bettttt

#

If I were to buy a x570 board for the 5000 series should I get the Asus Rog Crosshair VIII hero Or Asus Rog Strix x570-e Gaming atx motherboard

naive pendant Nov 2, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

can b450 boards support 5000 series at all?

#

or do you just need a bios update

hollow thorn Nov 2, 2020, 3:58 AM

#

It's not universal support

#

and no b450 boards currently have support

#

they're planning on ~jan 2021 to start releasing the beta BIOS updates that'll allow for Zen 3 on B450.
