gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:46 AM

#

Okay then yeah definitely going for the xt then

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:46 AM

#

join team Radeon

#

i see you are already a red from your pfp

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:47 AM

#

Lol

#

Currently my build is out of date almost

#

I have a 1060 6gb

#

Mobo is a b350m 👎

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:48 AM

#

it's always going to be out of date

#

every build will always be out of date lol

#

in a sense

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:48 AM

#

True but I mean it's almost to the point it needs an upgrade.

#

I can still run over 60fps on high depending upon the game.

#

Borderlands 3 ehh like 70 to 80 on high/medium

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

bl3 was tanking super hard for me the first couple weeks it was out

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

5700 XT will do fiiine

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

like, 40-50 fps

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

it'll annihilate 1080p and 1440p will be a stroll

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

then it was either driver updates or updates within the engine cuz i was sitting at almost double that

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

Damn

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

90-100 FPS 1440p with max settings

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

but that's also in 4k fully maxed

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

That's awesome @pulsar garnet

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

so

#

it'll do you well

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:50 AM

#

I can't wait to start my build lol

#

I'm getting the thermaltake core p3 in red. Still wondering about wall mounting it lol

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:53 AM

#

and idk if the 3800X is worth it over the 3700X

#

unless you find it for around $350

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:53 AM

#

I was going to ask about the cpu

#

I have

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:53 AM

#

well then you're fine

#

it's not really worth $400

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:53 AM

#

Yeah

#

I think Amazon has it at 350

#

It's a bundle with the Asus x570 crosshair viii hero

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:55 AM

#

what

#

350 for the cpu and board?

#

that cannot be right

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:55 AM

#

So it's 734 bucks. Debating on whether or not that Mobo is really worth it lmao

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:55 AM

#

oh

#

was going to say...i just paid like $340 at my microcenter for a c8h

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:57 AM

#

Ohhh you thought it was 350 for both lmao.

#

I wish

#

📎 Screenshot_20191118-005824.png

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

honestly unless you need the extra cores for something, just get a 3600 and take that extra money into a gpu

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

That desk though

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 5:58 AM

#

i think best buy has it for $355

#

the 3800X

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:59 AM

#

Just trying to achieve a good 90fps+ on new titles basically

#

So I figured the 3800x would be decent

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 6:00 AM

#

what resolution?

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:00 AM

#

The new monitor I'm getting is 2560x1080

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:00 AM

#

tbh, the $150 on the 3800x won't offer much gaming performance unless you're streaming and stuff

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:00 AM

#

Nah

#

No streaming for me

#

Just gaming

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

ig you could get a 3600 or 3600X then

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

yea i agree

#

i would say just pocket that $150 and

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

Okay cool saves me money lol

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

or put that 150 into a GPU upgrade

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

yep

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

like maybe a 2080

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

clairvoyant

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 6:01 AM

#

but if you're just doing 1080 ultrawide maybe not

#

but it gives headroom for 1440p / 1440p uw

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:02 AM

#

21:9 ratio 30 inch

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:02 AM

#

that pixel density tho

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:02 AM

#

200hz

#

Up to 200 anyhow

#

I'd like to get over 120 fps on most games but I'm sure I'll need more than a 3600x

#

Probably not tbh

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:04 AM

#

you're getting it backwards, you're going to be much more gpu limited when pushing for high fps

#

having a fast cpu helps but you will see more returns with a better gpu vs a better processor in most gaming cases

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:04 AM

#

I'm pretty new to pc lol my bad

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:04 AM

#

i didn't mean for that to sound dismissive lol

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:05 AM

#

Lmao your good

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:05 AM

#

if i had a choice between a 3600x/2080s or a 3800x/5700xt the choice is pretty clear for me

#

but the 3600x+2080s is at least $150 more

#

so they're not really equals

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:05 AM

#

Yeah

maiden torrent Nov 18, 2019, 6:06 AM

#

hey

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:06 AM

#

good evening

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:06 AM

#

So then what's a good Mobo for the 3600x

#

I'm not sure if the 570 will work. Motherboards are so weird lmao

#

Nvm found another bundle lmao

#

Damn that saves me 300 dollars 😮

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:09 AM

#

this is a pretty nice, inexpensive x570 if you must have x570

#

https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813145160

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:10 AM

#

Doesn't have to be x570. Built in wifi is a plus. But doesn't matter the brand or make

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:10 AM

#

wifi 🤮 well tbh i am pretty happy with my c8h

#

most boards with wifi are $100+ more

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:11 AM

#

Damn I have a wireless adapter so I mean it doesn't have to be built in lol. I can't reach my router so sadly it has to be wireless

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

i don't use the wifi, but the built in bluetooth is nice for my elite v2 controller

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

Bluetooth is nice for sure

#

But even that doesn't have to be a thing for me anyways

#

I have nothing Bluetooth 😂

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:12 AM

#

honestly, if you already have a card that's adequate speed for your wifi, then why pay for it in the motherboard?

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:13 AM

#

True it just looks ugly lmao

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:13 AM

#

what's not ugly is better graphics cuz you saved money on stuff you didn't need to get stuff that you could put more use to 🙂

#

at least that's my stance

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:13 AM

#

Hell yeah I'm glad I came on here to talk lol

#

Saved me hundreds lol

#

The new bundle is 404 Instead of 734 lol

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:15 AM

#

yeah if you saved $300 you can definitely take that $300 extra in your budget and dump it into a 2080

#

or whatever is relevant when you actually do build it

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:15 AM

#

Hell man I might aswell not even build a new PC

#

I currently have a ryzen 5 2600

#

I mean is it even necessary to upgrade that?

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:15 AM

#

depends on how you define necessary

#

what gpu did you say you have?

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:16 AM

#

If I just buy a new Mobo and gpu

#

Currently 1060 6gb

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:16 AM

#

i wouldn't even bother with a new motherboard if you're not getting a new cpu

#

honestly what i would do is

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:16 AM

#

Yeah but the b350 is ugh

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:16 AM

#

i would buy whatever GPU you were going to budget for

#

and throw that in your current build

#

if it still leaves something to be desired, go from there

#

cuz that cpu and mobo will be fine for gaming

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:17 AM

#

See my case right now is like a case from 2008 😂

#

I'd love to get a new case

#

And then I was just thinking about just building another

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:18 AM

#

you could build a new one and still get several hundred out of your old build to offset it

#

as it's still current enough to have a market

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:18 AM

#

But if I can save money maybe I'll just get a case and gpu. And yeah that's true too

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 6:19 AM

#

i would keep your build, throw in a nice gpu, and if that's enough, call it good

#

a 3600x will be faster just by virtue of being, well, faster, but hard to say whether it would be worth it

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 6:19 AM

#

True I'm going for looks to much I need to stop that lmao

#

Now the thing is. Would a triple fan gpu fit..... Lmao

#

I need to measure how much room I have in there.

#

Ok so new question. 1080ti or 5700xt😅

#

Money wise 5700xt is more worth it to me lmao

west finch Nov 18, 2019, 7:30 AM

#

1080ti outperforms a 5700xt with a pretty decent margin, so it really depends how much you can find a 1080ti for

coarse coral Nov 18, 2019, 7:30 AM

#

they sell for 400-550 atm

#

1080ti

#

S3MeguShake

fluid raven Nov 18, 2019, 8:05 AM

#

Wait a 1080 ti outperforms 5700xt, that can't be right

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 8:09 AM

#

There's a pretty significant uplift in a 1080ti over a 5700xt

#

Whether it'll be worth the hassle is another story

#

If you have one locally available that's affordable, and you're ok with a card that's EOL then yeah, it'll make sense

coarse coral Nov 18, 2019, 8:16 AM

#

bunch of their warranties should be expired or expiring within the next year

#

S3MeguShake

#

mine ends oct 2020 so i plan to grab a 3080Ti before then

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 8:23 AM

#

I'm wondering if the jump to 7nm will be significant enough to warrant an upgrade already for my 2080ti

#

Pretty tough to predict but if AMD's gains on 7nm GPUs are any indication, then the 3080tis may be pretty beefy, cuz it stands to reason barring manufacturing issues, that nvidia will have made significant leaps too via the move to 7nm

fluid raven Nov 18, 2019, 8:46 AM

#

I remember someone doing some math and saying it should be at the very least a 7% gain

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 9:10 AM

#

7% is nothing, nvidia wouldn't bother with an entirely new architecture for that, it'll be quite a bit more than that lol

#

Like that's roughly the difference between a 5700xt and 2070s, which I highly doubt you'd be able to tell a difference between in games

pulsar garnet Nov 18, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

They'll do whatever makes them money xD

#

7nm Nvidia will get people hyped and if it's a new gen people with deep pockets will go ahead and buy, and anyone still on non 2000 will probably buy too

#

Not everyone, but there's always a market

fluid raven Nov 18, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

Well it was like 7% minimum just off of the amount of transistors, but their would undoubtedly be more performance possible than that

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 5:35 PM

#

I still can't believe the 1080ti still outperforms

#

I found a water-cooled 1080ti for I think it was 500 or so

floral barn Nov 18, 2019, 6:45 PM

#

@willow gorge the case is a phanteks p600s

latent bronze Nov 18, 2019, 6:47 PM

#

10xx series will last for a good 2 to 6 years (depending on which one said person would be using)

#

same how the 980 and 980 Ti will last for about 3 more years before people would have to be playing on like medium settings

fluid raven Nov 18, 2019, 7:03 PM

#

Yeah it's kinda crazy I thought the 5700 xt was a rtx competitor after all

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 7:39 PM

#

2080 ti or 1080ti?

lime forge Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

if u got the budget, definetly 2080ti

latent bronze Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

Are you asking which one to buy?

lime forge Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

otherwise i recommend 2070 over 1080ti

gaunt fiber Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

Which one performance wise is better

#

Strictly gaming

latent bronze Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

2080 Ti

lime forge Nov 18, 2019, 7:40 PM

#

1080ti, unless you can find it used for cheap, isnt good value

#

DEFINITELY the 2080ti

latent bronze Nov 18, 2019, 7:41 PM

#

heck you can even go for the 2080 Super instead which would cost less

tropic estuary Nov 18, 2019, 9:19 PM

#

How good are extension cables for PSUs?

#

I see some on amazon for 30 bucks but not sure how cheap they should be

polar holly Nov 18, 2019, 9:20 PM

#

I love them they make my build possible. I have a custom build so the normal ones do not reach all parts.

#

i would have no reccomendations on the ones to buy. mine are from cable mod.

tropic estuary Nov 18, 2019, 9:22 PM

#

I should check them out

#

How much were they for you?

polar holly Nov 18, 2019, 9:26 PM

#

75 dollars but they are custom

tropic estuary Nov 18, 2019, 9:29 PM

#

Ye i just want white ones

#

Maybe white and pink

deep skiff Nov 18, 2019, 9:47 PM

#

cablemod are usually more expensive, kind of like the asus rog of hardware

polar holly Nov 18, 2019, 9:54 PM

#

yeah but i find them to be very good quality and if your looking for custom without going boutique they are the best

grand brook Nov 18, 2019, 10:12 PM

#

Im trying to tidy up the cable management on a prebuilt i got but i do not know what some of these cables are. Can anyone help me out.

#

📎 video0.mov

It seems to be the sata cable for my hdd but it just connects to another open cable

little osprey Nov 18, 2019, 10:13 PM

#

it just has multiple connectors on the same cord

#

probably

gaunt zinc Nov 18, 2019, 10:13 PM

@grand brook I will SEND you Velcro cable ties to help clean that up.

grand brook Nov 18, 2019, 10:38 PM

@gaunt zinc why thank you, but I have already purchased velcro ties.

@little osprey https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FwGbhg

#

You pretty much have a RX 470 already and you might use the storage in your old system as well in the new

little osprey Nov 19, 2019, 3:52 AM

#

Ok What about Upgrading my System I can send you the info so I can get help

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 3:54 AM

#

I remember the system you have now which is using an FX processor which there is no real upgrade path for that besides for the GPU

little osprey Nov 19, 2019, 3:54 AM

#

GPU?

grand brook Nov 19, 2019, 3:56 AM

#

Does anyone know how difficult it is to replace a power supply.

lime forge Nov 19, 2019, 3:59 AM

#

not too hard at all

#

just gotta make sure you dont pull any of the other wires

#

also

#

do NOT reuse the cables

#

always use the new ones that come with the psu

#

most of the time the way the pins are situated means that you could plug stuff in wrong and fry the PC

#

so basically just use the new cables and youre good to go dog_Laugh

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 4:02 AM

@little osprey what's your budget?

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 4:19 AM

There is no budget Ok so my 8350 is good to go then

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:20 AM

So if you were doing a full overhaul what’s the max you would want to spend on it @little osprey

Even the lawsuit won with it favoring 4/4 with bs desgin

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:22 AM

can do anything from $300 to $300,000, but i would need a budget for what you're looking to spend @little osprey

little osprey Nov 19, 2019, 4:22 AM

I would have to say $1,000

never heard of that price point ever

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:23 AM

more of an execration when someone doesnt give me a budget and just says they want a good computer

little osprey Nov 19, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

I really dont want to spend more then that but if i have to I will save the money up like i did with my PC i have now an that took me over 3 years to do

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 4:24 AM

#

Well i find the RX 470 he has is still good to this day right now

dark raven Nov 19, 2019, 4:24 AM

1k is a pretty good point

#

Maybe, 1080p med yeah

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:24 AM

if you wanted to spend $1000 to build an all new PC, i would go with something like this

#

But year/ 2 maybe 1080p

#

But first, get a ryzen 3 or ryzen 5

Huh thought it was a 4/8 cause r5 is a 6/12

#

Wait

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:27 AM

1st gen R5 had 4/8 and 6/12

Which series

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

2400G and 3400G is 4 core 8 thread as well

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:27 AM

#

4/8 was dead on arrival, so they discontinued out other than the R52400g / R5 3400G

dark raven Nov 19, 2019, 4:28 AM

I thought they then went to 6/12 r5 gen 2

#

Yeah

4/8 is ok in a cheap cpu

R5 isn't cheap enough

latent bronze Nov 19, 2019, 4:29 AM

on Aliexpress they're selling a R5 1400 for like 50$ lol

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:29 AM

#

for about $340, you can get a really respectable upgrade, while still using some of the components from your current PC @little osprey

I'd say not using AliExpress for r5

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:32 AM

but yeah, thats what i would recommend to upgrade to while still making use of some of the old parts from your current system. its much mroe affordable than dropping $1000 on an all new system, and its still a very good option in terms of performance to go with @little osprey

little osprey Nov 19, 2019, 4:34 AM

I was just thinking that to

so in all reality my Current PC will be abot 1k or over

austere condor Nov 19, 2019, 4:36 AM

no I wouldnt say that, the parts you currently have are not worth a whole lot

#

FX 8350/board/16GB ram is worth $60~
the 240mm AIO cooler is worth $35
the 1TB HDD is worth $10
the RX 470 is worth $65
case is worth maybe $5-$10
PSU is worth $20

Do colored plates for covering unused fan slots exist?

#

@little osprey Is this your case Corsair Crystal Series 680X RGB CC-9011168-WW Black Steel / Plastic High Airflow Tempered Glass ATX Smart Case

#

Yessir

#

But the white one

#

Found somethink kinda like im looking for but dont need a fan cover... uxcell 120mm Computer PC Dustproof Cooler Fan Cover Dust Filter Mesh 5pcs https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010ESDROS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_UJc1DbV3DT3FQ

#

Ok now we are getting some where

#

How manny Fan's single fans do you have all together

#

3 on front with 3 fan radiator. One on back exhaisting. 2 on bottom. And 1 on top left above motherboard

#

Echausting

#

Exhausting

#

Accroding to what i see in the pic you want the 3 front fans to be intake's

#

Your Water Cooling as outtakes

#

the one in the back as a Outtake

#

My 3 fan h150i is on the front cooled from intake.

#

I found something like this CaseLabs 120mm Fan Hole Cover Plate, Solid, Gunmetal https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01F67O70K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_GMc1Db21YRK0X

#

But its unavailable

#

The 2 bottom's on the bottom you might have to ask an you dont want anything covering the Airflow's

#

The 2 intake fams on the bottom blow onto my 2080 ti and i have an intake on the top

#

Fans

#

Your Liquid Cooling is always a outtake

#

The top right fan slot cant be used because the h150i radiator is in the way.

#

The 3 corsair LL fans are mounted in the front so i can see the fans with the radiator behind it

#

https://gyazo.com/5eecd72a06418dfb0e154c0c07d3a086

Gyazo

#

For Exp my Pc has a grand total of 4 Fan's an 1 Liquid Cooling
2 in the front is a intake 1 on the bottom is a intake 1 in the back is a outtake an my Liquid Cooling is a outtake

#

Is your Liquid Cooling in the Front or Top

#

Front because its 3 fan

#

Wont fit top

#

Ok I think that's where you made a mistake you got a Liquid Cooling for the front when you should have for the Top an the Front has 3 fans already

#

Yeah.

#

This is what I recomand -->https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16835103234?Item=N82E16835103234

#

Will a 140 x140 mm magnetic dust cover fit this case on the top slot? @little osprey

#

I wouldn't block any Airflow at all due to if you block your PC will overheat

#

I just want to out a dusto cover on

#

Put

#

To be honest I have no clue

#

I would like to know what you guys think.

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

well

#

with a 3900x

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

i said b450 cause his first choice was cheap as well

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

maybe there is

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

some of the nicer b450 boards will have similar quality vrms as x570

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

Idk but like

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

most of the cost of x570 isn't in the vrms anyway

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

imagine an msi creation or something

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

now the 3800x would work good but the 12 core might heat up vrms too much

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

#

X570 I like but may wait for pricing.

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

with that 3900

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:27 PM

unless u add a monoblock

#

to cool vrms

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

So x or b

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

i think you're overstating how hot vrms get

#

they're designed to withstand like 120*c

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:28 PM

#

x really isnt needed , its more expensive too

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

the issue is the quality of the power delivered, less the heat

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:29 PM

#

hes not overclocking so doesnmt matter lol

The x570 phantom

asrock is ok but there cheap

#

asus, msi, gigabyte are better

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:30 PM

asrock boards are also fine

i wouldn't worry about any motherboard i got from any of those brands

i have the x370 gaming x its trash compared to the x370 strix

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:31 PM

ok, so you're writing off an entire brand just because you have a bad experience with one product?

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:31 PM

ive boiught 3 different ones not just this one

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:31 PM

any strix board is premium quality

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:32 PM

Ok so if I go x470 no OC it’s legit

#

Cool

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:32 PM

i usually go by positive reviews too

#

yea

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:32 PM

#

should be fine yeah

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:33 PM

they're...all fine

#

the strix boards are of similar quality to the other fancy lines of boards from all the other manufacturers

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:33 PM

I just find rog stuff overpriced

#

Most of the time at least

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

aorus line, the higher end MSI line, whatever

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

i had the asrock z270 which was great but once i jumped to ryzen 7 the asrock boards are made wayyy cheaper than my intel build.

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

Msi godlike

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

and yes i agree the ROG stuff is overpriced when companies like gigabyte are offering, frankly, better VRMs on cheaper boards

#

saying this as my 3900x is running on an ROG board lol

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:34 PM

#

120 is overpriced?

#

its only 10 more than that asrock board he chose

round flare Nov 20, 2019, 4:35 PM

#

I said most of the time

#

I was gonna get that rog board originally

#

but I went with an x570 for a little more

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:36 PM

#

i was too but cheaped out on the asrock x370 gaming x and wish i had forked up the extra 50

#

for the x470 strix

all places i would start with b450

#

although with that gigabyte board some reviews complain about a lack of clarity as to what processors it supports out of the box

#

i.e., it may not have bios update for 3rd gen

#

and no, $120 in a vacuum is not overpriced

#

i said ROG stuff is overpriced, as in, on the whole it's overpriced

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:40 PM

#

Fair. Thanks and I will look at that

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:40 PM

#

they have wifi models of all three of those boards i believe, if that's something you want

#

but price jumps up

#

i still think x570 is the way to go, this may not be a perfect analogy by any means but are you gonna put mid range tires on a mclaren?

#

but i think that's just me being a bit neurotic

#

so take that comment on x570 with a grain of salt lol

#

x570 is the way to go

#

imo if you're spending ~$700-800 on this upgrade, it makes sense to cough up the extra $70-80 to jump up to x570 as well

#

i guess i feel a little better knowing my neurosis is being backed up by someone lol

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:52 PM

#

I found a x570 I liked by ASUS

#

Just makes sense

#

Thank you all

polar holly Nov 20, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

Yeah and if you ever truely want to hit the ryzen4000 series coming out I believe next year the x570 will be a better board to upgrade rather then having to buy the cpu and mobo.

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:54 PM

#

Yup

#

X570-p was all all green

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:57 PM

#

i doubt he'll be looking to upgrade to 4000 series with a 3900x heh

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:57 PM

#

Nope this is my last build for the near future

#

At least 4-5

#

Yrs

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 4:58 PM

Ryzen 9 would be longer than 4 to 5 years

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 4:58 PM

#

Good I’m hoping

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

wasnt there something that someone said the 8 core was better for gaming than the 12 core?

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

heck there are older Xeon's from like LGA 1156/1155 that is still up there with the i9's lol

coarse coral Nov 20, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

ipc > core count

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 4:59 PM

#

the 8 cores will likely clock ever so slightly faster

#

so, yeah, the 8 cores will on occasion outperform a 3900x

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:00 PM

#

just get a 3800x and a x570

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:00 PM

#

Well more cores doesn't always mean better cause the latest 3950X the 3900X does better in gaming

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:00 PM

#

the lesser 100 bucks on cpu will make it a better motherboiard cause x570 starts at 200

#

then no bios is needed

#

update

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:01 PM

#

If you are doing heavy work loads then more cores would be better

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 5:01 PM

I stream and game

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:01 PM

That goes without saying

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:01 PM

#

a 3800x is fine for streaming i stream with a 1700x

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:01 PM

#

streaming and gaming you can do that with a 3600 still >_<

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 5:02 PM

#

Ok I will look at the 3800 x after lunch and report back haha

#

Thx for the insights

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:02 PM

i would lean towards 3900x still

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:02 PM

i wouldn't

neat

not needed

hes just streamiong and gaming not video editing

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:02 PM

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:03 PM

#

ok, well i'm leaving this conversation

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:03 PM

#

IVE BEEN USING A 1700X FOR 2 YEARS LOL

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:03 PM

#

If you want plug and play performance for multi-purpose gaming + other stuff , 3900x is a great pick (at the $500 level) If not,I'd go 3600 for $194.

If you want an overclocking friendly system for cpu and ddr4, aiming to reach the highest levels of fps gaming performance, go 9900ks or 10980xe + big water loop / chiller.

#

good for you

#

your needs and desires are not his

#

I'm aware. I have one. Does my already lengthy block up there need more filler? haha

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:04 PM

#

is 3600 is fast then 3700x is better than 3600

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:04 PM

#

They are still good but is it really needed since he could just go with the 3600X instead

blazing bear Nov 20, 2019, 5:04 PM

#

@little osprey great game play good graphics no frame loss

#

While streaming. End goal that’s it

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

i wouldnt game and stream with a ryzen 5 lol

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

I do

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

#

ouch

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

#

i have no issues at all as well

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

#

3600x and 3900x are entirely different tiers of cpus, if he wants something that will offer more longevity and more overhead for streaming, he will be better suited by the 3900x

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

#

how high u stream?

#

what res?

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

1080p

#

game and stream

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:05 PM

Those are good goals. Would you prefer a system work with very easy setup? Or are you interested in taking time and effort to tweak/tune etc?

@ Otroud - what platform, bitrate, and encoding do you use?

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:06 PM

and i don't want to stream at 1440p when my game isn't on it as well

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:06 PM

you stream in 4k? x

#

not on a 1700x

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:07 PM

actually i have

#

not very well but its possible

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:08 PM

#

if you say so

tidal bluff Nov 20, 2019, 5:08 PM

#

maybe not 60 frames but i can . if i have a zen+ i could

#

when i stream 1440p my cpu usage doesnt even hit 50%

#

so im sure i can do 4k low settings

#

not max settings tho no way

#

i se stream obs orwhatever its called

#

also have gigabit internet if that helps

latent bronze Nov 20, 2019, 5:13 PM

#

Anyways i use a Ryzen 5 2600 and i am able to stream with no problem and i was also able to stream with no problem using a 2400G back then

#

for streaming you just need higher than the recommended processor which is an i5 4670K which a lot of newer processors are better than that

little osprey Nov 20, 2019, 5:15 PM

#

"obs orwhatever" as in streamlabs with all auto settings?
Or obs studio with x264 + custom encoder flags?
Or obs studio using nvenc?
