My 570 runs apex on high setting at 60+ frames

chilly marsh
#

so i got those, then it paid off when i realized i didnt need to pay for peripherals and just buy the pc with monitor

round flare
#

Yup

#

I went cheap on my peripherals

chilly marsh
#

my 1660 runs 80+ on all games

round flare
#

all on sale

chilly marsh
#

i can make it 144 fps if i lower 3 4 settings by one notch

round flare
#

Yeah

chilly marsh
#

honestly im not really thinking about upgrading my pc now other than storage, i got a lot of other things to think about that i didnt back earlier in 2019

#

saving up for a better keyboard rn tho, then storage, then probably better headphones

#

mainly peripherals

#

what games you play @round flare ?

round flare
#

Destiny 2, overwatch, minecraft, terraria, apex

#

Everything basically

#

So this

#

is this the finished product

chilly marsh
#

interesting

#

i mainly play siege, every once in a while division 2, tho i can play rust or mc with friends destiny 2 i dont play but own and a little but if brawlhalla

round flare
#

Nice

#

Destiny is a lot more new player friendly now

#

Ok @sand kayak I think that's your build right there

chilly marsh
#

calus

round flare
#

What

chilly marsh
#

is it possible we can upgrade him to a 1660 non Ti

#

y'know

round flare
#

Maybe

#

But gpu benchmark site says that its not really better by a lot

#

It's also a bit more expensive I'd say

#

the 590 is better at somethings than the 1660

chilly marsh
#

i mean by 20 bucks more expensive

#

slighter less

#

but that dont matter

#

looks good to me

round flare
#

What looks good

chilly marsh
#

the build

round flare
#

the build or swapping to 1660

#

oh

chilly marsh
#

he wants his lights so rgb ram baby

round flare
#

lmao

#

Yes g skill

#

I picked them because it fit and it's nice ran

#

ram

chilly marsh
#

man that crap was 20 bucks more expensive in early 2019

#

i wanted it, but out of my budget

#

750

round flare
#

Oh

#

I'm kind of jealous of the build I made

chilly marsh
#

oof

round flare
#

It's got a better gpu

#

idk about cpu but the board looks cooler too

chilly marsh
#

you planning to upgrade yours anytime?

round flare
#

Maybe

#

not sure

#

If I was to upgrade for sure gpu

#

I'm thinking 5700xt

chilly marsh
#

yeah i really like the 5700 and xt

sand kayak
#

Ok ok fine do one with no lights

chilly marsh
#

what.

#

oh my god lamo

round flare
#

Rgb won't decrease price by much I promise

#

Literally just the ram

#

Also all keyboards have rbg LOL

chilly marsh
#

best it can do at this point is just upgrade your gpu to a 1660

round flare
#

rgb*

chilly marsh
#

wont be much but its something

round flare
#

your saving 20 bucks

chilly marsh
#

but if you want your lights thats totally fine

round flare
#

And it won't be as flashy

sand kayak
#

I I understand that but y'all were talking like it could be better if I didn't get the rgb

round flare
#

Not by much

chilly marsh
#

its a minor thing yes, but overall not a big deal

round flare
#

the difference of one gpu that runs higher by only a few fps

chilly marsh
#

and plus, you can always save up some more money for the future

round flare
#

^

#

This build can stream and game fine

sand kayak
#

Ok thx

round flare
#

those 8 cores will go to good use

#

@chilly marsh what would you upgrade in yours if you had a realistic budget

chilly marsh
#

what would the example budget be

#

1k?

#

1.5?

round flare
#

No I mean like

#

the build you have now

chilly marsh
#

mhm

#

an D

round flare
#

if you were to have a budget for a part or two

#

Like 400-500

chilly marsh
#

gpu and cpu, storage and fans

#

assuming i would only use that money for my build

round flare
#

Which specifically

#

I like to hear the preferences of people

#

I would go with a red devil 5700xt and maybe an h510 elite

#

I want an nzxt case

chilly marsh
#

prob a ryzen 7, either 5700 or xt

round flare
#

Oh a new chip sounds nice actually

#

although I recently upgraded to a 3600

chilly marsh
#

nice

#

for me the cpu was the hardest to do when building my pc

#

those damn screws wouldnt go in

#

i screw in one, rest pops out

round flare
#

on the stock fan?

#

the wraith spire

#

because oh boy

chilly marsh
#

i screw in other, rest pops out even if i screw it in a tiny bit

#

ryzen 5 2600x

#

that stock cooler needs some mental help

round flare
#

I spent a good 30 minutes putting the stock cooler in

#

The spring screws are mental

#

I hate them

chilly marsh
#

other than that the build went smoothly, save for half an hour of looking at cables

#

i even needed to get my dad to help me with my cpu stock cooler lmao

round flare
#

Oh lol

#

I had no help PepeHands

chilly marsh
#

then i just figured out the small cables for mb

round flare
#

So I took like 2 hours on cables

#

then it was my monitor not wanting to detect signal

chilly marsh
#

i took about half an hour on management of cabLE afterwards

#

i was so happy when it worked

round flare
#

same

#

when it booted I was really excited

chilly marsh
#

i yelled in happiness noises for a full 2 minutes

round flare
#

Lol

chilly marsh
#

not joking

#

i was so thankful cause i know what its like to play under 40fps lowest settings with like a window as small as my bowl for eating

round flare
#

Oof

#

I never had a pc before my build right now so

#

The experience was great

#

I come from console

#

so it was night and day

chilly marsh
#

i mean i played on the family pc before so

#

not any better than your past situation lmao

round flare
#

Oh lol

chilly marsh
#

btw

round flare
#

Ye?

chilly marsh
#

it has a geforce 210.

#

i was like oh yeah baby bring on the gaming

round flare
#

:wuuu:peepoSusp:

#

Well I messed up the emotes

#

I don't even know what gpu that is

#

Anyways, I'm gonna head to sleep

#

Nice talk

#

cya

chilly marsh
#

cya

#

wait here s a pic

round flare

oh?

chilly marsh

@pulsar garnet that looks more purple than pink

Hey guys, maybe a HORRIBLE question, but let's try to be civil; what's the best brand for an RTX 2070 Super in your opinion, and why?

I'm starting a build list. I don't know if I'll be able to scramble the cash, but I want to build a new machine for my new streaming channel.

novel nacelle
#

@vagrant wyvern rog

vagrant wyvern
#

@novel nacelle I am definitely Rog-Curious. I used to use a lot of ASUS parts back in the olden days.
What's your thoughts on why they are the best?
Have you ever had to deal with their customer service team?
Also, why am I not seeing any listed on Newegg for RTX 2070 Supers? I must be searching wrong.

#

Belay last question. I'm literally staring at one right now on my search results. DOH

latent bronze
#

EVGA

little osprey
#

If you're going for the + because you want more fps for more $, do it. There are small wiggles in the proice/performance competition graph, each side trading game specific performance as well as features/ vs raw fps, but for most

Both the 2070 , and 2070 super are well within the limits of value that I think one should prioritize other factors like customer service, power limit, noise, thermals, the last 3 of which are almost entirely what influence real world, non test bench performanec.

latent bronze

@little osprey pics only in that channel and talking in this one

@quaint terrace dont forget to post that picture to #build-pics to be submitted for the Techin Around show on Newegg streams!

#

very cool

compact monolith
#

Hey will a Asus motherboard be able to sink with a gigabyte graphics card ? RGB wise

latent bronze
#

yes

compact monolith
#

Will it all be able to run through aura sink

latent bronze
#

For GPU's they have their own programs

compact monolith
#

So it would take 2 different programs. Is their any program out their that is like a universal one that works with everything

latent bronze
#

Sometimes having 2 different colors can be cool as well

#

Take this as an example 😛

compact monolith
#

Hmmm the reason I like that gpu is because of the display ports

#

I can’t find a 2080 super by Asus with 3 of each

sonic drift
#

That a Masterbox from Cooler Master?

#

That was the case I used in my first build, and on my brother's build lol

compact monolith
#

I got a evolve X case

latent bronze
#

That is the one with the magnetic mesh cover

sonic drift
#

So is the one I got, but the mesh has seen better days. Got a little bent up when I moved

latent bronze
#

Well i gtg

deep skiff
#

@latent bronze lmao got that 3 pixel image

latent bronze
#

are you even in new york?

round flare

it got sold out in my local one

latent bronze
round flare
#

must be your closest one

#

mine says chicago

latent bronze
#

my closest is Vermont

round flare
#

interesting

latent bronze
#

Also i am thinking of i5 and i7 with that memory 😛

little osprey
#

anyone want to help with which version of windows 10 i need?

#

64 bit for sure...home for sure..its for a personaly gaming PC...not sure to get full retail and where, or a full download...

#

need to upgrade from windows 7

sudden turret
#

then just pick up a key on ebay for around 5 bucks.

little osprey
#

are those keys safe and non-stolen or anything? i dont want to run into issues with keys down the raod

#

and thank you for your help

sudden turret
#

download the tool, create to usb

little osprey
#

okay

sudden turret
#

I've used an ebay key for the longest time, so have many here.. never had any issues.

little osprey
#

okay

sudden turret
#

I know, it sounds sketchy lol.

little osprey
#

yea it kinda does and you know...internet

#

okay well sounds good, thanks so much for your help

sudden turret
#

no prob

latent jacinth
#

@quaint terrace what mobo model did you use for the 3600?? I’m trying to find one for my next build

quaint terrace
#

oh B450 gaming plus max its compatible out of the box with the ryzen 3000 series @latent jacinth

latent jacinth
#

@quaint terrace wow that’s even cheaper than the MSI tomahawk I was looking at. Thanks!

quaint terrace
#

yup

latent jacinth
#

Haven’t built a computer since 2013 so I gotta take my time — still running a i5-3570k and gtx 660

latent bronze
#

3770K is still good in this day and age

latent jacinth
#

i considered just upgrading the gpu because i dont do as much gaming as i use to. not really sure ifperformance would bottleneck though considering the age of the rest of my hardware

latent bronze
#

If you're upgrading to a mid range GPU you would be fine

latent jacinth
#

had my eye on the 1660 ti

chilly marsh
#

its a good card for under 300

latent bronze
#

1660 Ti gives pretty much the same performance as a 1070

#

the only thing is 2 less video memory

#

@latent jacinth Systems like the one you're using now is still pretty good considering games like Destiny 2 recommended is a i5 2400

#

What are the games you do play when you do?

latent jacinth
#

@latent bronze I still really enjoy world of Warcraft and CSGO , but I would like to play more titles like gears 5 and battlefield without turning the graphics all down to very low.

#

No streaming or editing on my PC either.

#

I like using two monitors but my 660 seems to struggle when I have two of them hooked up. So for now I only have one 144hz monitor

latent bronze
#

Have you ever thought of just a normal 1660?

#

@latent jacinth This is my own benchmark with the 1660 which you can be able to see the performance https://youtu.be/z97adLFgFEY?t=427

#

note i am using a Ryzen 5 2600 as well so there is a bit more of a performance than the 3570K

chilly marsh
#

what a coincidence, thats my buil D

latent jacinth
#

That looks great

#

I did consider buying the older 2600 for my build just to save a few dollars. And I did consider buying the regular 1660. I just don’t know the market well enough to buy last generations hardware without overpaying

latent jacinth
#

How old are your builds and would you recommend moving to the 3600 over the 2600? @latent bronze @chilly marsh if someone was purchasing completely knew

latent bronze
#

i replaced my CPU to the 2600 in August

#

i would of went for the 3600 but i didn't have enough

#

I could of went for the 3400G instead which would of been about the same performance as the 2600

feral basalt
#

Eh APU with a GPU is weird and you got more cores and threads

chilly marsh
#

if i had money maybe

#

but thats if i had more than enough

#

because i prob wouldnt buy it since im saving up for something else

latent bronze
#

@feral basalt more cores and threads are nice but when you have something that is fewer cores and threads that performs better than Zen+ Ryzen 5 then that is something cause remember the 2400G performance as well is the same as a 1600

#

it is just i would of had a back up in case my GPU dies and i had to RMA it

steep raven
#

help

lavish meteor
#

Rate it 1-10

#

I won't change any parts so don't try to convince me

round flare
#

at least change the cpu cooler to the chromax version so it's a sleek black PepeHands PepeHands

little osprey
#

What's the difference with and open air case vs closed case

#

Any cooling benefits between these

chilly marsh
#

yes

#

more air around the case of an open air can cool it better

#

but higher chance of getting more dust in the build

#

closed case can get enough cooling, just not as much as an open air

deep skiff
#

and open air will be louder (cpu cooler, gpu cooler, fans/radiators)

little osprey
#

Ty

sudden turret
#

calm down chitlins

#

i'll obliterate all

#

there

#

😄

little osprey
#

Lol

#

Chitlins?

#

I'm probably older than u

latent bronze
#

i doubt that

little osprey
#

Wasnt talking to u Ecks

chilly marsh
#

if someone makes the age argument, its probably false or they're just immature for reacting to the joke lmao

pulsar garnet
#

I'm older than you

little osprey
#

Lol

pulsar garnet
#

So I'm right

chilly marsh
#

lmao

little osprey
#

I'm 38

latent bronze
#

i win im 39

pulsar garnet
#

I'm 19

chilly marsh
#

and you said you were older cause someone said chitlin?

#

noice

#

im 15

latent bronze
#

omg you're the same age as zack

little osprey
#

Someone is confused

chilly marsh
#

there is no im the same as zack

little osprey
#

And I was talking to Box when I made the comment about chitlins

chilly marsh
#

he's the same as M 3

sudden turret
#

I'm 38.

#

My statement still stands.

little osprey
#

Same age

#

Born in 81

Hahaha

latent bronze
#

So Box does this mean i get to call you a chitlin then lol

little osprey
#

I think that gives u a ban

sudden turret
#

nein.

little osprey
#

Lolz

sudden turret
chilly marsh
#

so mainly what im interpreting is that most members in this discord are 30+ men

#

interesting

latent bronze
#

Well i am Aug 1980

sudden turret
#

just call me ban o'lantern

chilly marsh
#

any of you married?

#

So yeah I'm glad shes leaving

#

So I will be single for a while

#

I dont do crazy or controlling

#

So I'm counting the days

#

🥳

latent bronze
#

Well we're all crazy just in our own ways

little osprey
#

Yeah but when u make a service dog bite you just to get rid of the dog not caring that I need for my anxiety and PTSD then u have a problem

latent bronze
#

If we were all normal then life would be boring

little osprey
#

MONDAY gona be great GTFO is being released

#

And Tuesday she leaves

#

Sux when u feel like a prisoner In ur own home

latent bronze
#

I hardly leave my place so i am used to being a prisoner in my own home lol

#

If i am not going out for doctors appointments and treatments i would say i go out at least once every 2 months

little osprey
#

Fk that

latent bronze
#

I have been single for 23 years so um ya

little osprey
#

Not all women are like this

#

But the majority of the now are getting that way

latent bronze
#

oh i know that but all the women interested in me i can't date

little osprey
#

Anyways

#

Enough about me

#

So who's gona build a new pc soon

#

I may in a couple months

#

I will prolly build one with the threadripper

#

And an MSI board

coarse coral
#

this is the build chat

little osprey
#

Sorry theo was venting

coarse coral
#

it's okay

little osprey
#

I'm still kinda mad

#

About the whole situation

#

Anywho

#

Should I go liquid cool or air cool on the threadripper

#

I dont know how much heat that chip puts out

latent bronze
little osprey
#

I like the center one

#

RGB

#

Lol

#

But I wonder if will cool the chip enough

latent bronze
#

You also know the fans in the stock Ryzen fans are from Cooler Master

little osprey
#

Didnt know that I thought they came with AMD wraith fans

#

It's what it says on the box on most with the wraith cooler

#

Or does coolermaster make there fans and stamp the amd logo

latent bronze
#

When you remove the fans from it on the other side it says Cooler Master

little osprey
#

Ah ok

#

That makes sence

latent bronze
little osprey
#

I have deep cool on my 1400

latent bronze
#

same

#

the S40

little osprey
#

I have the side flow cooler like a radiator with the heat pipes

#

And a 92mm DC fan

latent bronze
#

But now i want a lower profile cooler instead

#

id avoid xfx on navi, and bump the ram to 16gb

next tangle
#

i'm trying to stay under 500$

#

but my parents said 572$ is okay

#

and why avoid?

deep skiff
next tangle
#

@deep skiff but that's the thicc version and XT

#

i have the ultra

#

and non xt

deep skiff
#

yeah

#

but still i'd look at it like msi's thermal pad problem, it was on all of their cards minus the gaming x

next tangle
#

?

#

MSI?

#

how'd msi get into this conversation 😂

deep skiff
#

because they had an issue with navi thermal pads

#

and it was on 3 or 4 cards, just like how xfx could have bad temps on several cards like the one u posted

next tangle
#

is it better than the blower cards?

deep skiff
#

idk im looking at reviews rn

#

it performs well, but runs pretty dang loud

#

should be around 50 dba, which is pretty loud

#

the red dragon is a pretty good non xt card ive heard

next tangle
#

the blow cards?

#

blower*

#

the blower card runs at 50 dba?

#

the xfx dd

next tangle

can you link the video you watched?

Sapphire ftw

quaint terrace
#

Yeah I have the Sapphire Pulse 5700 xt, could barely hear anything lol even when playing game hehe

next tangle
pulsar garnet
#

Instead of 2700 get 3600

next tangle
#

I'm trying my best to stay under 500 but a little over is okay

#

A 3600 is 30$ more.

#

I don't think I can do that

pulsar garnet
#

They're the same price

#

3600x is $30 more

#

3600 is not

next tangle
#

?

#

Where are you looking at for the 3600?

#

I found one that's new that is 185.99$

#

But where'd you find one for 161.99$?

#

@pulsar garnet

next tangle
#

@deep skiff I found one cheaper and I don't have a Micro Center near me

#

I found a new one that sold 2K times for 185.99$

fossil hedge
#

the threddripper 1920 is 200 right now

#

not a bad price for a workstaion cpu

deep skiff
#

but mobos are like 300-500, kind of kills first gen tr

austere condor
#

at that price i'd still want to stick to buying used

#

should be able to find 1950x's and boards for $500ish still

deep skiff
#

but you could also find a higher clocked 8 core at like $400 new, only downside would be less c/t and less ram support

austere condor
#

oh yeah, 100%, but, going 1st gen threadripper, there really isnt a good reason for it other than specifically needing as many cores as cheap as possible

#

i just bought a i7 9700 and Z370 board for $250, that would be a much better price for a 8 core and board for a more gaming focused build

silver lion
#

What do you think is better, gtx 1650 or RX 580

deep skiff
#

rx 580

#

the 1650 at its current is a joke compared to polaris cards

next tangle
#

trying to stay under 500 but about 80$ over is okay

#

if anyone has changes, feel free to link the changes

"Some AMD B450 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Matisse CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions."

next tangle
#

I'm gonna be using it for streaming, editing, recording and gaming, games like destiny 2, pubg, r6, fortnite

#

@chilly marsh I'll just ask amd for a cpu to get shipped out to me to update the bios then send that cpu back

#

people say to get that 3600 instead of a 2700 or a 2600X

chilly marsh
#

ye thats good

#

why are you sending the cpu back after updating the bios

#

that doesnt add up

next tangle
#

..

#

the update cpu

#

is what i'm sending back

chilly marsh
#

there is no update cpu

next tangle
#

yes there is

#

ask I believe it was ecks

#

and a few other people said

chilly marsh
#

if there is, arent you just gonna update the bios anyways without it

next tangle
#

well I don't know how to

chilly marsh
#

you can just search up how to update bios on your mb

next tangle
#

should I go with MSI?

chilly marsh
#

and then your motherboard company

next tangle
#

since I have a bios flashback button

chilly marsh
#

dont have a definite answer

#

im not the most knowledgeable sadly, too busy to learn other things now

#

: (

next tangle
#

oh it's okay

chilly marsh
#

would be best to update to the most recent version

#

though asrock warns you and they dont recommend users to update bios if their system is already running as it should

#

but it comes down to your choice

next tangle
#

what does that mean?

chilly marsh
#

if your system is running fine, you dont have to update your bios

next tangle
#

oh

chilly marsh
#

they just warn us

what would show if I needed to update my bios?

chilly marsh
#

my asrock mb is fine so i just decided against it lol

#

nothing would show i think

next tangle
#

would it show anything?

#

okay

chilly marsh
#

just more updates on the website

next tangle
#

how would I know if it isn't running fine?

chilly marsh
#

if something is really wrong with your system

#

if a problem has to do with your mb, maybe then you might have to update it

#

but i wouldnt worry about it too much

#

but you can update your mb using instant flash with a fat32 formatted usb disk

next tangle
#

what signs of problems will it show?

chilly marsh
#

im not sure

#

lemme try and search around

next tangle
#

ok thanks

chilly marsh
#

heres an explanation i found

#

"Common symptoms of motherboard issues are similar to CPU problems: The system does not display anything; an error code appears; one or more beeps occur; the system locks; the system reboots; a Windows BSOD (blue screen of death) appears; or one or more of the ports, expansion slots, or memory modules fails."

ohh ok

thanks

west finch
#

A friend of mine is putting together his first build, I already gave him some suggestions, and this is the latest list he's come up with, ordering parts at the end of the week most likely

#

I already advised him against spending that kind of money on an AiO, anyone got any other suggestions?

sudden turret
#

unless he plans to OC like crazy that's probably overkill lol

quaint terrace
#

i went with gammaxx gt air cooler for my build, I didnt OC or anything though but my my temps were at 31-33 when idle and about 40 when i was playing FFXIV xd

west finch
#

yeah as far as I know he's not even planning on overclocking, so I have no idea why he wants to buy a cooler like that

#

however as I said, I already advised him against that, just looking to see if there's any suggestions based on the rest of the parts

onyx hollow
#

Does anyone know when this GPU is coming in STOCK? I've been waiting for over 3 weeks

#

And will it come With CALL OF DUTY?
Any help will be appreciated

sudden turret
#

Do you have auto notify on?

onyx hollow
#

Yeh

little osprey
#

@austere condor What ballistix elite is that? The 3600c16 Rev.E ?

little osprey
#

Ah, I didn't know that bin shared the heatspreader. I realy like the look/feel. Bit crowded on some boards though

austere condor
#

its older gen DDR4 from X99 era

#

doesnt play well with Ryzen

#

but works fine on intel

fossil hedge
#

@west finch, I recommend using a different motherboard, such as the MSI B450-A PRO ATX AM4 Motherboard which at this point comes with the bios updated by new-egg, and will cost significantly less then the one you have now for the same function.

#

and paying 112 for 2 tb is a bit of a bad deal, you can get 3 for less then 80.

#

and again, making it look nice is kinda not my strong point but your card is also overpriced for its function as well.

#

and the stock cooler on your cpu should do fine unless your going to overclock like @sudden turret. however, I would recommend buying a noctua cooler for anything in that regard.

#

so, just to show you how much money you could save, if you just wanted function instead of aesthetic and water cooling, I made a list of parts that are about 10 to 15 dollers cheaper together, https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fzBHhg

#

its got a ryzen 9 3900x, 32gbs of 3000mhz ram, (which you could change to somthing with less latency for about 16gbs) 4tbs total storge with 3tb hard drive and 1 tb ssd. I got you 2070 super, a good Deepcool case with extra fans, and your mointer.

#

the ryzen 9 is better then a ryzen 5 3600 by a massive margin, and great amount of ram is not necessary, its just to press a point. the ssd and hhd are both great, and chepear and have great capacaty then the one you have.

#

hope I was helpfull.

deep skiff
#

so why again does that build have 64gb of ram

#

and you don't need those case fans, save $30

west finch
#

Whats the point of a 3900x for a gaming only computer?

#

Wouldn't he be better off with a better gpu before a $500 cpu?

west finch
#

@fossil hedge

deep skiff
#

yeah id go 3700x +2080/S

little osprey
#

Take one look at phoronix, puget, openbenchmark etc - we're really enjoying some nice options on themarket imo - I think I'll save my bickering fo the next dry spel a-la 3rd through 7th gen intel.

west finch
#

@deep skiff i recommended a 3600 because from the benchmarks I could find on 1440p there's no noticeable difference from a 3700x

empty cedar
#

Ok

little osprey
#

Hey I have an unused fan slot because a radiator is in the way... anybody know how id go about plugging it from airflow? Its just this open hole thats affecting my case pressure

west finch
#

case pressure doesn't really matter IMO

austere condor
#

@deep skiff I'd agree with @west finch the 3700x doesnt make sense for a gaming PC, its only 2-3% faster or so in gaming, but it costs over $100 more than the R5 3600. really right now, the two best options for a gaming PC is either going to be the R5 3600 or the i7 9700k.

deep skiff
#

yeah but who said it was a gaming pc? And the 3700x would be more future proof because devs utilize more core/threads

sudden turret
#

3700x best

west finch
#

I clearly said it was a gaming only PC

deep skiff
#

ic now

#

u only said it once 429456697883623425

little osprey
#

3600 best value, 3700x less good value , but far, far from "bad" value imo

west finch
#

I don't have any issue with people getting the 3700x, it's an amazing CPU

#

it's just not worth it for a solely a gaming system over the 3600

#

for gaming it's not even value anymore, it's just that the upgrade to 3700x won't give any noticeable improvement if you're playing at 1440p or higher

little osprey
#

Can someone help me

#

On picking out a motherboard cpu and case

little osprey
#

sure, there are literally thousands of combos, we can narrow down what to help you look for with a budget (mainly), what games you play, target resolution, ect

coarse coral
#

@little osprey okay, what do you need?

little osprey
#

I’m on a budget but I want a good motherboard processor and liquid cooling on my next build and has to be amd

#

Ryzen

limpid merlin
#

Budget and liquid cooling dont go together

little osprey
#

what is your budget? define budget

#

and honestly unless you're doing heavy overclocking an AIO is extreme overkill

#

if you're just doing gaming at stock speeds, especially with one of the mid-range ryzen chips, you will probably be fine with the bundled cooler

little osprey
#

$900

#

I have a fx 8350 with hyper evo 212 right now and average around 8-10c highest is 32

#

I just want to upgrade my motherboard processor and case

coarse coral
#

are you able to reuse your case, hard drives and fans?

little osprey
#

probably a ryzen 3600, any gigabyte/msi/asus motherboard (probably b450) depending on your other needs (wifi, pci4)

#

It uses micro atx

#

need wifi or no?

#

Nope

#

I want to be able to mount the cooler at the top

#

What’s the 3.1

#

I have 3.0 right now

#

what usb revision it supports

#

And I don’t use windows

#

I use Linux

#

wait that one doesn't support 3rd gen ryzen

#

This one is am3+

#

I have fx8350

#

I want to go to am4

#

that is what i just suggested

#

Does it have a 3.0 connector on the board for the case

#

I have a front 3.0 connector

#

but you said you want a new case too

#

I do

#

I’m just transferring the hard drive dvd drive power supply to the new case

#

And fans

#

And do the new cases I saw they have preinstalled but are they 3 pin or 4 pin

#

the fans? depends on the case but probably 3 pin so you can plug into the motherboard

#

that motherboard will require a bios update for the 3rd gen processors

#

so actually scratch that

#

i would presume that board is flashed with the bios that support 3rd gen ryzen but you would have to double check with newegg

little osprey
#

Does the new cases that have the usb 3 but 2 ports only have one cable or 2

#

I saw one case that has 2 3.0 but is it one cable for both ports

#

i have no idea, you will have to find your own case as i don't know what kind of case you want, what kind of looks you want

#

A full atx

#

That can also handle a micro atx

#

any full atx will hold a micro atx

#

But I saw some had 2 ports on the 3.0

#

find one you think looks nice and go from there

#

It was hard to tell from the pictures

#

I saw the 3.0 cable that plugs to the motherboard

#

I don’t know if there’s another one or 2 in one

#

ok so you want to spend $900 total for a cpu, motherboard, and a case

#

Right now I just want a bigger case until I save up more money

#

Then I will go all out

#

I have a mid tower right now

#

dude you are really confusing, you asked for motherboard and cpu too, but you want to wait to go all out

#

I saved those two processor and motherboard

#

I printed it out

#

i mean if you have $900 to spend now on a cpu motherboard and case, and want to put a nice video card in later that changes things

#

I’ll wait

#

I’m still in school

#

I just want a full atx case

#

ok we're on different pages, you said budget so i showed you a more budget cpu and motherboard

#

there are literally hundreds of cases, just sort them by how many front usb ports they have

#

I just want to know is it just one 3.0 cable to the motherboard

little osprey
#

wait a sec, like i said if your budget for just cpu and motherboard is going to be ~$800 you can get much beefier stuff than what i suggested

fossil hedge
#

whats the budget

#

(I might be able to "help")

little osprey
#

he first said budget, then i suggested a 3600 and a b450 motherboard

#

but if he has $900 total to play with for a case, cpu, and motherboard that's a much different story

fossil hedge
#

well thats a ryzen 9, a good case and motherboard easly.

analog otter
#

okay i have a few questions if anyone has the time?

little osprey
#

depending on what he's doing he may be better off not getting a ryzen 9 and just getting a 3700x or something and taking that extra money towards a gpu

#

but if he needs or wants intel or has other needs, that changes things too

#

or a 9900k or whatever

fossil hedge
#

well for linux or any kind of coding signal core will be better optimized for that kind of work flow.

little osprey
#

hence why i was trying to fish more info out of him

fossil hedge
#

makes sense.

#

@analog otter what's up?

#

what " few questions" may I attempt to aid in

analog otter
#

Okay so I have recently started a stream and cannot get it to run without buffering and basically picking up hardly any of my stream this is my current specs what would I need in order to get myself running smoothly?

fossil hedge
#

this is kind of a older system.

#

do you have a gpu?

analog otter
#

Graphics is XFX GHOST

fossil hedge
#

thats quite a bit older

#

I'll see what I can do about upgrades, but you might want to consider just getting a new system.

analog otter
#

my only issue being i dont have the kind of money it takes to build one or buy one

fossil hedge
#

what kind of money do you have? (for upgrades or otherwise)

analog otter
#

well i have about 500 at the moment nut was also thinking that i might would just be in a better situation gettingmaybe an omen or something like that?

#

meaning financing from hp but not sure if i wanted to take that jump if i didnt have to

fossil hedge
#

I can state that you video card would most proububly increase your streaming perfromince, however,

#

I am also searching around for good upgrades to your cpu

analog otter
#

i have been trying to build a new one for a while but every time i try a price goes up or what i would be getting is obsolete

fossil hedge
#

well, yeah your computer is mostly comparable to my TV, then my laptop.

#

I am checking to see if its a better idea to buy a new cumputer, or upgrade the one you have now.

#

I am mostly just checking parts and prices. shouldn't take more then 15 minutes.

analog otter
#

sucks to hear but i know its true and okay thank you

fossil hedge
#

not done yet my freand, we still have checking to do.

analog otter
#

okay

fossil hedge
#

might I ask how much wattage your power supply is and what rating it might be?

#

@analog otter?

analog otter
#

total?

#

750

fossil hedge
#

cool thanks be back in a minute

#

so, looking at your parts, I got to tell you, you do actuily have a pretty good system. for 2005. however, your systems parts or at least some of them, can be reused. first off, your case, it has ok airflow, and works if you were going to reuse it, so I put it down as reusble and moved on, for cpu, ram, motherbourd, and GPU, I dicided you need a upgrade, you can't stream on that card very well.

#

so put simply I specked out the parts you need, I got faster ram, and if you don't want to you can just reuse the old ram you have.

#

that list has the parts you can buy, it has a 2700x for a great price, and its going to run your game a lot faster if your streaming that kind of thing. I got you a 590, its good entry card, and honestly its going to have price cuts in a few months.

#

total price is about 17$ over your budget of 500, but honestly if you want something now, its going to get the job well done.

#

as for long term, the bourd has bios flashback so you can buy a sleek brand new ryzen 3000 chip later if you wanted to upgrade, so to aviode your fear of outdeted stuff.

#

everything is upgradable and its a good system to start off of, to work your way up to much better systems later, avoiding the loss of money.

analog otter
#

okay and say i wanted to go higher with the gpu what would be a good idea?

#

and thank you for taking time and helping me even though you didnt have to.

#

and i knew it was about time to start upgrading when i had to startopening my case for more airflow im probably going to have to get a new case as well

fossil hedge
#

yeah well you could also get new fans or somthing but yeah, that mouthbourd is in my list is proububly the cornor stone of any new system today, its got usb biosflasback so you can upgrade to any new ryzen 3000 chip, you power supply is still great, and yeah a GPU is somthing to upgrade but for streaming it comes down to the amount of cores in your CPU and how much ram you have to support that kind of multi system workflow.

#

so, things to buy: CPU, new motherbourd, new gpu, new ram.

#

if you need any more help, I'd be happy to comply.

little osprey
#

to tie into that, nvidia gpus have the capability of offloading some of the heavy lifting of streaming to a dedicated chip on the GPU

#

so if you at some point upgrade to a newer nvidia gpu, that will lessen the impact your cpu feels, if you choose to use that encoder

onyx hollow
#

Does Call of Duty comes with every RTX cards?
Thanks

coarse coral
#

depends if the retailer is participating in the promotion @onyx hollow

#

it will say on the store page if they are

onyx hollow
#

@coarse coral Like I want to buy Aorus 2080super but it doesn't say it will come with CoD bundle although its sold by Newegg

warm nova
#

probably because the one that is in stock right now on newegg is not sold by newegg. Its a marketplace seller

coarse coral
#

because you need to pick newegg as the seller

#

the gpu you currently want is sold out

#

@onyx hollow

warm nova
#

I know some Aorus products are going to be arriving at retailers in the next 2 weeks. Hopefully the 2080 super will be one of them.

onyx hollow
#

@warm nova yeh I hope so, I've been waiting for this card to be in stock for over 4 weeks

#

Anyway thanks @warm nova @coarse coral

#

If you don't see it anywhere by next weekend let me know and I can see if I can find out when more are coming.

Yo i have this weird cable and i dont know where to put it help please

verbal bone
coarse coral

thats a usb 3.1 cable

#

its for cases that support usb 3.1

#

usb 3.1 gen 2 front panel connector @verbal bone

onyx hollow
#

One suggestion plz. Should I go for the Msi card or Aorus ? Which one will be best value for money?

coarse coral
#

best value? depends on your brand preference at this point

#

there are reviews out there

#

so y ou can compare

#

i dont have experiance with those cards

#

i'd personally go with evga @onyx hollow if you're looking for a solid brand

#

good warranty, good support, usually a good rating all the time

fossil hedge
#

well I am a Pratt and would probably buy the cheapest ones with the best reviews.

getting a pretty baller gaming PC built

#

for $70

little osprey
#

What'd you find

#

I need to hurr up with that test run setup for the toasty build haha oops

austere condor
#

core i3 4340
8GB DDR3
H81 motherboard
case and PSU (with a spare am3+ board)
XFX RX 470 4GB

#

and i have a 1TB seagate drive i bought for $10

#

$35 for the CPU/board and ram

#

$20 for the GPU

#

$5 for the case power supply, and the AM3+ board in it

little osprey
#

Not bad - what's the slot power draw like on that? That boards no worry I bet, but I see 4xx Polaris cards cooking those dell / hp etc slots rated for 15/35W sometimes.

austere condor
#

idk, they normally pull 75W

#

right?

#

then it has a 6 pin power on it

little osprey
#

Probably. 470s, 480s are just notorious for pulling 100 W from slot sometimes.
Really only a concern on 480 + cheapo mobo or with triple, 4x configs on boards without the support for that.

austere condor
#

not a very good PSU either

little osprey
#

I picked up 3 of these recently since I was ordering from evga anyway, $5 each lol - I'd use one if/when I ever try putting a Pascal/Turing my one of my optiplex KA/LA mobos. https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=100-MB-PB01-BR

warm nova
#

I have one of those

#

I ran it with my sli gtx 470's

little osprey
#

ya, but you got the case/psu for $ 5 lol - use the PSU for a lab +12V supply

austere condor
#

that PSU

#

an old timer Cooler master case

#

and a biostar Am3+ board

#

lol

#

for $5

Lot of cool accessories by EVGA. I half wanna buy an eepower.. but if I'm zombie modding a card e.g. reference PCB 1080/ti anyway - I can just build that myself

Haha same, with my ebay g3. I use other,more expendable units when testing stuff that could go wrong and blow up the psu though, cba to bother with a protection filter etc.

@little osprey got another budget build in the works

And is this a good motherboard

austere condor

i can use that case, or i can see if i can find a cheap case local to put it in

little osprey
#

@austere condor can you help me with this

austere condor
#

anything Ryzen

#

R3 1200 to a R9 3900x

little osprey
#

I thought it has to be a specific one

austere condor
#

the tomahawk is one of the best B450 boards you can buy

little osprey
#

This is my first time with am4

austere condor
#

you can put a 1700, 1700x, 1800x, 2700, 2700x, 3700x 3800x into that board

#

all 8 cores

little osprey
#

Hold on

#

And liquid cooling

#

And what case would you recommend

#

I was looking at this one

austere condor
#

ok im back

#

sold a system. lol

#

ok, so for a case, i can make a few recommendations, but i dont have a lot of personal experience with higher end cases

little osprey
#

And my motherboard is an atx

austere condor
#

I would recommend against buying a AIO liquid cooler

little osprey
#

Send me a link

#

And do you have to put stuff in it or does the stuff already in it

austere condor
#

they are generally more expensive than the performance they offer, and are beaten in performance by cheaper, air coolers

little osprey
#

But I’m on a budget

austere condor
#

large, high performance air coolers are more effective at keeping your CPU cooler than an AIO cooler. but, the AIO coolers are generally an asthetic choice, since a lot of people think they look better, but you do need to understand your trading the top end performance and spending a bit more money to get an AIO that looks better

little osprey
austere condor
#

i wouldnt recommend buying a 1050ti either

#

especially at that price

little osprey
#

Oh

austere condor
#

what is your budget?

little osprey
#

I just want a 4gig one

austere condor
#

how much do you have to spend for this PC you're wanting to build

#

what country are you from

little osprey
#

No more than $800

austere condor
#

and when do you plan on buying this PC

little osprey
#

United States

#

Christmas

#

I already have a hard drive and dvd

#

And power supply

austere condor
#

what power supply do you have?

#

if you dont know, take a picture of it from the side that looks like this

little osprey
#

Mines a 750 the one you only plug the cables in you actually need

#

Fully modular

austere condor
#

i would need to know the actual model number

#

like, what company is it?

little osprey
#

Idk

austere condor
#

EVGA, Corsair, Cooler Master, silverstone, seasonic?

little osprey
austere condor
#

I would recommend something like this

#

get yourself a Ryzen 5 CPU, a good B450 board, good 16GB of ram, a 1TB SSD, and a RX 5700 graphics card

little osprey
#

How much total

#

I’m sticking with this board

#

Since it has a usb 3.0 connector on it

#

What about cpu cooler

#

Can you send me the link on that

little osprey
#

@austere condor what about this case

austere condor
#

most boards in the past 5-6 years have a USB 3.0 header on it

#

so...

#

you dont need to worry about that

#

and wow is that case atrocious

#

i have built in the S3, and its a case i highly recommend

#

@little osprey

#

and the CPU comes with a CPU cooler in the box

#

so you dont need to buy an extra one

#

that is the zalman S3

#

the case I recommend

how would you like me to effectively tag multiple people without "spam tagging"

I'll wait for the hollidays or cyber monday

old charm
#

While I'm around I'm gonna post my build

#

thoughts?

old charm
#

uhh, what should I do instead?

latent bronze
#

Replace it for a Sapphire card

#

I tend to trust a company that focus on one brand only now

deep skiff
#

or powercolor

old charm
#

do you guys have any specific reccomendations for ones? I am pretty much a total greenhorn

latent bronze
#

Or even XFX for that matter

old charm
#

and a lot of this jargon goes over my head

old charm
#

I just went with the sapphire one

#

but everything else looks fine?

fossil hedge
#

any reason you choose that monitor?

#

I just see that there are some 75 hz mointers with better latency and ips panels for about 1 USD cheaper.

fossil hedge
#

so I put one together, which again, is rather presumptive, but maybe some of my ideas might save your some money. your cooler is cool, I like it. your cpu, not so much. AMD, is good and all, but you got the 3600, instead of the 3600x which wants I spec-ed somethings out, I could get. then I noticed your ram, your paying to much, for stuff that has the same cas latency and price to 32gbs ram. and then again your overpaying for your 5700xt, normally a really well rounded card. so I exchanged it for a 2080 rtx card, which at the moment is on sale. So I know your not going to like what I did with your case and motherboard, but hear me out, I look at functionally and not looks, the phantecs case is easy to work in, and the motherboard is overpriced. your buying the same function, for a greater amount of money. I saved you like 20 USD, which is not much, but it adds up. but, you can save like 70 USD, if you buy a motherboard thats got usb bios flashback, you can just update the bios, for again, a huge drop in price. so I made 2 lists, on with just a mouthbourd that works out of the box and another with the price defect and better parts because of a cheaper motherboard. again, I am a budgeter, for good parts, good function, same price less looks. I thrive off of the tears of RGB enthusiasts.

by the way @twilit escarp nice case.

twilit escarp
#

Thanks still building it lol

... that’s not overpaying for a 5700 xt

fossil hedge
deep skiff
#

and I’d swap that m22 out for a top tier air cooler or cheaper 240

old charm
#

@fossil hedge a lot of this wasn't my doing. I had computer saavy friends who have built pc's before help me with a vast majority of this

deep skiff
old charm
#

@fossil hedge Yeah. Even while they were helping me they kinda got carried away with making it "look cool" imo even tho I said that I am more a "function over fashion" type of person

#

I am still mulling over what to do

#

I am trying to understand this haha

fossil hedge
#

cool yeah mines deffntly not in the favor of looks, but I highly recommend a ssd that I put in there, the mothbourd, and just trying to get cheaper parts that have good reviews.

#

I kind of thought the Monitor was especially a waste of money, as there were better ones for like a dollar less.

#

but yeah, its cool to try to help people, and if you need any more questions answered, I tend to be around to help.

little osprey
#

@old charm can you help me

short arrow
old charm
#

@little osprey what'up?

little osprey
#

I found a case

#

Let me send you the link

#

What liquid cooling should I get

#

And do you have to add anything when it gets shipped to you

#

Or do you just put it in your case mount it and the bracket and plug it in

old charm
#

You should probably ask someone who has actually done this before. I'm pretty green at this kinda stuff myself @little osprey

little osprey
#

I’ve tried but no response

old charm
#

I can ask someone else I know for you but they're not around at the moment

summer helm
#

I have a ram question. anyone here who might be able to help me pick an appropriate upgrade?

fossil hedge
#

hey I'm on, first off @summer helm what are you looking for, and what do you have?

#

and @short arrow heres some edits you could consider: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Cx8hyk, I changed out your ssd, your cpu, motherbourd, and case. your choice on the case of course but the mouthbourd and the cpu are like 10 dollers more for like 50% better perfomince.

deep skiff
#

got cheaper ram+1660 Super

#

Isn't B550 boards this month?

#

@ripe ledge in time replace the stock cooler with something a little better

lime forge
#

nothing wrong with amd stock coolers if youre not overclocking

#

imo

ripe ledge
#

I bought one

#

But it didn’t fit

latent bronze
#

So @lime forge how come you're not using the stock cooler on your 8700 non K

lime forge
ripe ledge
#

I bought the cooler master 220 evo and the bracket couldn’t get close enough to the screws to be tightened down

latent bronze
#

don't you mean 212?

ripe ledge
#

Er yeah

#

Lol

little osprey
#

Got a Mac Pro wifi card question...Is this the right place to ask about it? Or a different chat?

latent bronze
#

Just for the people that would focus more on there i would tend to think you know

ripe ledge
#

My build is on an msi x570 gaming plus, could someone recommend me some good coolers for that?

lime forge
#

i know nothing about air coolers lmao

ripe ledge
#

Or aio

ripe ledge
#

Name a few?

lime forge
#

i have that one, im using it right now

#

since you have corsair ram, the RGB will match up too

latent bronze
lime forge
#

OOOH

#

THERMALTAKE

ripe ledge
#

I love the rgb aio but price is always an issue lol. That air cooler seems good. Noctua is highly rated isn’t it?

latent bronze
#

one of the best companies and would fit in your system

ripe ledge
#

Nice nice

#

I just don’t like the weird beige they got goin on

latent bronze
#

You know he said price is an issue and you keep showing over 100$ coolers lol

ripe ledge
#

Well it is and isn’t at the same time

#

I CAN but I really SHOULDNT

lime forge
#

yep, those messages were sent within seconds of eachother, sorry i cant read a million words per minute 🙂

ripe ledge
#

You’re alright dude

#

They’re good suggestions

latent bronze
ripe ledge
#

I’m just trying to find one that will a) work on my damn mb kannakms b) just be better than a stock cooler even if amd stock coolers are good

#

Oo I like that

#

Not pricey either

lime forge
#

to be completely honest, if you dont plan on overclocking and your temps are fine, theres no need to upgrade

ripe ledge
#

Fair enough

#

For some reason I feel like I should tho idk lol

lime forge
#

i felt the same way

#

and wasted $150

ripe ledge
#

Oooof

latent bronze
lime forge
#

now my temps are super low and my pc looks great

ripe ledge
#

Oooooo

#

I am tempted but I mustn’t

chilly marsh
#

For the Gamdias coolers i have seen reviews for the 120 and 240 versions which there was never any complaints
