- Keyboard is a pass. Barely any major brand gaming keyboards are worth buying at all. People don't go to brands like Corsair or MSI for good keyboards. This one I suggested came from a number of keyboard enthusiasts who build them for a living. Bridge75 and Rainy75. Both way better.
- The monitor is probably the most divisive part if I'm honest. This pc is way overspec for the monitor and committing to this screen, you'd have the same fps results just about with a $900 pc vs the $1500 odd one I put there. Both would show 165hz 1080p. So it's a complete bottleneck for the pc. The OLED I put is an endgame choice. Way way better. Colour, response and latency performance, the monitor is equivalent to several gpu upgrades on it's own. OLED is 1000% worth it if you can afford it
Welcome to ask if you have more questions but I was very specific in the choices for the budget, unless there's some specific need I'm missing here I really wouldn't change anything

I trust Bacca's suggestions so if you want all black this is an option^
New psu on the market?

Atx 3.0 mwe gold from what I can tell

M482 seems new, $100 for 2tb of that is great

It's a cheaper version of the og m482 but I haven't researched it yet
G50 at $106 is a good ssd

Don't mind it, because it has no impact on performance
What’s the over clock for?
Also for the cpu cooler, I don’t know if you would know the answer to this or not, pcpartpicker says it doesn’t know if the cpu cooler has enough clearance for the ram?

I can tell you it does

What's the performance difference between 3600x, 5500, and 5600(x)?
45$ 5500 at Microcenter after coupon deal so..
Would probably be paired with either a 2080ti, 3060ti, or a 6700/50xt
pseudo pollen
not sure exact performance difference, but between 5500 and 5600 it's 15-20% iirc. haven't looked at benchmarks in a while tho

What's the performance difference between 3600x, 5500, and 5600(x)?

Sine vs square wave doesn't really matter unless you're using REALLY sensitive equipment. Computers don't fall into that category, power supplies can do cleanup of their own.
What matters more is the type of UPS, not the power it makes. Standby should be avoided, the switching time is awful. Line interactive is better. Double conversion is best but expensive.
dusky hearth
Double conversation is also called online right
potent portal
Correct
That's the best because it's always pulling power from the battery, therefore it's always delivering clean power
potent portal
Cheapest non-Chinesium one I could find that I would consider suitable
It is loud though, it's designed for server rooms
dusky hearth
main downside of those is that they use a bit more energy due to the conversion though
but yeah also always clean power.... well, at least as clean as how good the quality of the inverter is
potent portal
Line interactive is usually plenty since they often have active PFC to correct voltage fluctuations
I've recommended this one a few times https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RWMLKFM/ref=twister_B079Z981R2?th=1

Damn

i cannot get jar files to work on my pc
i think the first time i did it i somehow like tried opening it with the wrong thing and now its just broken
potent portal
Did you set your PATH variable
lone flame
Did you set your PATH variable
what is that
potent portal
Guess that's a no
lone flame
also when i try opening one it hits me with this
potent portal
also when i try opening one it hits me with this
A common cause of that is trying to run 32 bit jars on a 64 bit install, try to find a 64 bit version if that sounds like you
potent portal
Windows 11?
lone flame
10
potent portal
Another way to that window is to open file explorer and right click your pc, and hit properties
Then you'll want the advanced tab
Near the bottom is environment variables
lone flame
what is the path value
potent portal
Point it at the folder where you have Java installed (or OpenJDK or whatever you're using)
Specifically the folder that contains Java.exe
This way when something tries to call for Java in the terminal you don't need to manually specify where to look
lone flame
i dont know where java is installed its just in my file explorer somewhere idk
im sorry i dont understand files at all thats one of my worst things with pc i dont understand like 90% of it lol
its just in my downloads
potent portal
If you used the default location when you installed Java then it'll be in your Program Files folder
potent portal
Did you run those to install them?
potent portal
Then the installation folder will be under C:\Program Files\
Which are you trying to use? The regular JDK or OpenJDK
lone flame
whatever lets me open a jar file for my minecraft shaders lmao
potent portal
I'd go with OpenJDK personally
So you'd look in C:\Program Files\OpenJDK\[version]
lone flame
can i just type that into search this pc
potent portal
You can type it into file explorer
lone flame
cause im gonna be honest i have no idea where to look im sorry 💀
potent portal
The bar at the top of file explorer works just like a web browser, you can just type a new address to go there
lone flame
So you'd look in `C:\Program Files\OpenJDK\[version]`
says no items match my search
potent portal
Do it without the [version] since I only put that because I don't know the version
potent portal
Yes
lone flame
still no items
potent portal
Ok I see one issue that stands out for me
Java 21 is insecure and has been deprecated, so you'd want to use Java 23 instead. Also you got the hotspot version and not the full one.
This would be the latest version, 64 bit only https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk23/3c5b90190c68498b986a97f276efd28a/37/GPL/openjdk-23_windows-x64_bin.zip
It's possible Windows detected the out of date Java version and decided to block it
Because Java is notoriously insecure

Forgive the bluntness, but if you aren't comfortable with even uninstalling a program then I would advise you not to run a server off your home network. It only gets more complex from here, with things like port forwards and NAT to worry about, and opening up your computer to the Internet is risky. Doubly so if you don't understand the risks.

AMD option, similar performance https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7WFGvj
Pretty much agree yeah, tho maybe slightly better value ssd
potent portal
The only real advantage going AMD is the option to upgrade the CPU later
You don't get that with the 13600K
grim shard
Okayy so amd over intel basically? Because i saw that there was some draw backs with the intel cpu the new ones specifically
cyan ravine
Here's a snapshot
Actually let me edit this one sec
Here's what your fps looks like
potent portal
Okayy so amd over intel basically? Because i saw that there was some draw backs ...
The Intel chips have been self destructing, but that's mostly the high end i9 and i7. There's very little gaming difference between those and the i5 so either get the i5 or go AMD and don't worry about it.
cyan ravine
Bigger number better in this situation
cyan ravine
Okayy so amd over intel basically? Because i saw that there was some draw backs ...
Either or are good. The amd one is a little more future proof, the intel one is a little more performance
Pick your poison (use the same ssd tho)

It's all up to you at this point. There's no clear cut winner at this price range.

guys both deals are off the table one guy tried to scam me it seems/made the whole process take so many more days its easier to just buy new parts myself
so I own a ryzen 5 5600, G.SKILL aegis DDR4 and a b550 mobo, what should I upgrade first? ram right?
mossy venture
so I own a ryzen 5 5600, G.SKILL aegis DDR4 and a b550 mobo, what should I upgra...
How much ram and what speed
And what gpu, storage, and power supply
runic cedar
How much ram and what speed
is there different speeds between the g.skill aegis variants? like the 8gb having faster/slower CL?
than the 16 gb
runic cedar
And what gpu, storage, and power supply
that dont matter just wanting to know if I should upgrade my ram and then use my old ram for GFs PC
I have a rx 6600 and would want to upgrade to a RTX 4070 maybe
but if ram is also important in my case then I would switch out those first
mossy venture
Yes there are multiple models of the same kit of ram normally.
And yes storage and psu 100% matter
If you're using an hdd for your boot drive, you 100% want to get an ssd for windows
And if your psu is dangerous, you definitely want to replace it first
runic cedar
heard from some dudes that it was and from others that it wasnt
seems weird
imo
average brand favouritism
I own the EVGA 750W Gold Supernova

Evga has a few bad ones, but none of their gold supernovas are problematic

Well psu is def a keeper
You could hold onto the b550 if it's a good one
runic cedar
ram or GPU? I dont want to pick my pc apart fully and then have to build her PC same day
cyan ravine
6600 is reusable so is the ram and cpu
You just repurpose those another way
If the b550 is solid you can keep that, or move to a new build altogether
runic cedar
gonna have to buy a new case too 😵💫 gonna be exhausting but atleast I get to clean out all the cathair fr this time and not just with a airpump
cyan ravine
5600+6600 will run on that apevia I told you about yesterday
Ya new case is possible
runic cedar
but will i get more FPS with a new set of ram? and by how much?
cyan ravine
I haven't seen a very detailed list yet but specifics in question this could be a pc still in good value
New ram will only do more if you need more
And in doing so you buy a new kit and only use that kit
Mixing is not recommended

U are confused I think
cyan ravine
?
runic cedar
So Im only trying to buy her a new pc my pc only gets upgraded if it makes sense and isnt a huge investment
I have like 400 euros for this I'd like it to be aeound 300 tho if possible
Around*
cyan ravine
Ok, we go the other way
Apevia prestige for u, supernova for her lol
The parts all look good, case and ssd (I hope it's an ssd) would all be passable
Frankly a ram upgrade would be justice, that's all
runic cedar
Ok how expensive is it tho? I was hoping to go a bit cheaper on her psu since I will upgrade early next year anyways
cyan ravine
The parts I'm suggesting are basically the cheapest possible rn
runic cedar
The parts all look good, case and ssd (I hope it's an ssd) would all be passable
Yes just dont remember which one and am on phone rn
cyan ravine
If you want cheaper, cheaper doesn't exist in the psu department
As far as ram, used on ebay for some 2x16gb ddr4 kit works, makes its $30 not $50
So $80 to upgrade yours max
For her, not sure what your whole budget is but $400 let alone $320 is barely enough for any half decent pc
runic cedar
Ok lets say this then: i upgrade my ram using ebay, she gets my old ram, I buy her the ryzen 5 5600, another supernova GT (i would like to go with 650w tho), a mobo (need help for a decent cheap option) and the rest she keeps from her old PC
cyan ravine
Used 5500 + cheap board like b450m-a ii + small ssd + 5700xt + cheap case would be maybe $350-ish
runic cedar
Im just trying to buy a ryzen 5 5600, a mobo a ram kit and a psu
So that we wont have to share my setup
And so we can play games together
Possibly a new AiO for my system and maybe a new case
cyan ravine
*New ryzen 5500 + tuf a520m wifi ii + 512gb ssd (A60) + apevia prestige 600W + cheap case (sama im01) + *new 32gb ram kit would be about... $400-ish?
Something like that
runic cedar
Never heard of apevia
And i will probably upgrade my ram just no idea what would be better
Currently i use 2x 8 gb CL16
Is there a list of better alternatives with 2x 16gb option?
I do multitask a lot with my pc and often have 10 tabs open whilst playing some mid to high processing games
cyan ravine
I can barely make a 5600 fit
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bkWfKX
Oops that's a 5500xt, anyway it's a placeholder
You'd use the ram here in your pc
Use the 2x8 kit in hers
cyan ravine
Never heard of apevia
About the only good psu under $80 rn
Specifically the one in the list
And only good for very modest pc's like the one above or the one you own

mossy venture
Nah that's for you
12400f and 12600kf are both better value than the 5600 atm, but its up to you
A mobo with wifi would cost more, and 12600kf doesn't come with a stock cooler
runic cedar
she's gonna be streaming and multitasking isnt ryzen always the better opion in that case?
mossy venture
No
runic cedar
A mobo with wifi would cost more, and 12600kf doesn't come with a stock cooler
no stock is rough
mossy venture
12600kf would 100% be better
12400f is very slightly better than 5600
12600kf outmatches the 5700x in games, and matches it in multi core performance
runic cedar
but Im happy with my 5600 cuz I have not had an issue so far in anything I have done and Im running it using stock cooler
runic cedar
but its more expensive when Im trying to save money
due to it not having a stock cooler
and having to buy a normal cooler would not be smart cuz we have 2 cats and they jump on our desks
so if I dont go stock I have to go AiO otherwise its wasted money
mossy venture
mossy venture
so if I dont go stock I have to go AiO otherwise its wasted money

A $20 cooler is perfectly fine
And 12400f does have a stock cooler
runic cedar
but with the intel chips throttleing Im not informed enough to know which have that issue and which dont
mossy venture
12th gen is safe
runic cedar
ik for a fact the new ones do but the old ones also have had some issues
mossy venture
13th/14th had a fix released but those were the only ones affected

5600 is a fine cpu, 12600kf just better
12600kf is currently 80 euros more expensive than the 5600 in my country atleast
runic cedar
That sucks, what country if I may ask?
germany
runic cedar
Thought you were in the US
the US thinking they are the whole world again 😭
though I still would probably have stuck to the ryzen 5 if its not a huge price gap

since Im also already familiar with it

So I assumed
runic cedar
nah
all good
I just wanted recommendations
for hardware
u good I still looked it up
mossy venture
Only the last one has wifi
First 5600 list has a dirt cheap board, but it has bios flashback and will function fine for a 5600
runic cedar
honestly asrock looks pretty cool for a white build no?
if I can I would make a white/pink build cuz of her GPU
runic cedar
So since Im also upgrading my current system, whats better, the 2x8 gb 3200MHz aegis with cl16 or a trident z 2x16 gb with 3600 MHz cl18?

Ram ssd and psu could be better tho

i got the ssd a while back bc it was all that was available for instant gratification, havent needed to get anything new yet so it's still here. the ram is not my first choice either, but was around. psu was also on sale so i scooped it up
little osprey
paid like 90 for the ssd, under 100 for the psu, and the ram i actually bought retail because the ram i ordered was gonna take over a week to get here and i wanted my pc functional n o w
so 105.99 for the ram
cyan ravine
Ssd and ram is oof

tips on better ram and ssd though? i want whatever gives me more fps and less latency, i hate rgb 😦 hold on ill send a pic of the setup as it is right now

i did not finish the cable management bc i got excited to set everythign up
cyan ravine
Ignore the psu
The ssd and ram represent a median price for "good" for the last 8 months or so
And those are the current good picks in a like for like scenario
Or if you wanted 1tb, $60 is the norm, has been for a while

Pretty much this. Leaks and rumors point at trying to whittle down on last gen stock before the launch of next gen but they are just that, leaks and rumors.
We don't expect next gen GPUs until Q1 next year
lone flame
We don't expect next gen GPUs until Q1 next year
Really?! I thought previous launches were always late Q4, and would be being officially announced around like now?
potent portal
Normally that would be the case but Nvidia is delaying their launch to focus their production on AI cards they can charge 10x more for, so AMD is likely going to take advantage of their delay to improve their own product. Even if Nvidia does launch a GPU this year it will only be another paper launch with very little stock available.
Current rumors lean more towards February for the 5090 and possibly 5080
lone flame
Interesting
RDNA 4 flagship needs to be like 7900 XT performance with better RT for like less than 600
Focus on better entry and mid range cards and you win the market imo
High end people will always buy nvidia imo even if AMD was right alongside them in performance
potent portal
That is AMDs strategy this time around yeah. They're on record as saying they're ditching the high end market and focusing on the market where 90% of the buyers are to cut costs.
lone flame
If RDNA 5 comes out with a halo product that will probably make me upgrade
I’m sitting on a flagship card for half the MSRP it launched at I’m chilling by lol
potent portal
If the 5090 leaked specs are real then there's no chance AMD could come close
lone flame
Honestly AMD being mid range and energy efficient means more to me than like 600W the high end 50 series is gonna draw
That’s just not sustainable
potent portal
Remember that 600W is just the rumored baseline spec and power is one of the things Nvidia allows AIBs to mess with
That's why we have official 1000W BIOS from Galax for the 3090
lone flame
That's why we have official 1000W BIOS from Galax for the 3090

You prob get close to that 1600 limit

It doesn't actually pull the full 1kW
Even with LN2 the most you'll usually see sustained is about 650W, spikes to about 800W
But if you SLI 3090s...
potent portal
Cause I know Europe’s is a bit higher
Oh and 220V outlets are 10A so they're typically around 2200W depending on the region specific voltage supplied

i forgot about the fact that ssd isn't required
here's my attempt at it
could use some more refinement but
this is basically it
potent portal
Right neither of these are quite min/maxed builds but rather parts that are good matches for each other
You could technically go cheaper by doing an AM4 X3D build but I wouldn't recommend that these days for a new build
obsidian wigeon
the 12600kf's saving grace is its performance on ddr5
as well as the sheer core count
might be useful if you play a lot of beamng (self bias incoming)

I currently have a 5600x with a gigabyte 3070. I play 1080p at 360hz and in some games i dont get the full 360fps. Is the 5800x3d a good upgrade or will it bottleneck?

5700x3d
Or 7500f/7600 if you'd be willing to go am5

How much of a difference is there between 7900 XT and 7900 XTX? It doesn't look like too much of a difference unless I wanted to go 4K

Around 15% iirc
The xtx has an extra 4gb but that won't really matter for 1440p, at least not anytime soon
And I don't see 20gb being necessary for quite a while
Might be closer to a 10% difference

Just found out I might only get $600 for my old build so the savings are looking more appealing lol

5600x, 1660 super, 870 EVO, B550 A pro with gigabyte wifi adapter, cheapish case, corsair 8x2 3000 mhz
Is that worth $600 or more?

Also i think the asus tuf 1440p 170hz IPS is $150 at wegg
If you got $600, fantastic

Is it not worth that much?

I'd sell it for like 400 max

It’s often inflated
Markets are vastly different
On Newegg, I can find a 1660s for $230, but on eBay, I can find it for $70.

You'd be looking at a used PC more than likely at that price, good luck

@cyan ravine nice a fun BSOD that's stupidly annoying to deal with
Kinda thinking it's my SSD though tbh. I had the same thing fail on a previous SSD, similar issue

Send me the contents of your C:\Windows\Minidump folder and I'll analyze it to see if there's a pattern
