Might be a bit pricey, but if theres a good deal, its good ram

latent bronze Dec 27, 2019, 4:14 AM

Also for Ryzen chips for 3000 series 3200MHz is pretty much like the minimum which if you can go for 3600MHz

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:14 AM

Yeah, it's good ita just if you can get it for a good price

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:15 AM

Why are you guys also looking up 3200MHz memory when the CPU is a Ryzen 5 3600?

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:22 AM

#

why not

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:23 AM

I think its on a bit of budget so no 3600 mhz

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:23 AM

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:23 AM

3600mhz more expensive. Its nice to have if you can afford it tho

@muted dawn that monitor is ok, it's just 75 hz which isn't too great for fps if that what you're lookin to do

5700 is less than ta 2070

guys if i was on a lower budget would a 1660ti be good

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:39 AM

for fps get a 144hz @muted dawn

latent bronze Dec 27, 2019, 4:39 AM

#

@muted dawn you can play pretty much every game

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

Do 1660S

muted patio Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

1660TI or 1660 super is a good choice for 1080p gaming on a budget

#

TI is slgihtyl faster but also more expensive

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

1660s is a 1660ti but cheaper last I checked

muted dawn Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

cant get 144hz monitor in my budget i think 75hz should be ok?

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

@muted dawn also get a cheap like 120 gb ssd for a boot drive

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

Maybe 120hz?

#

Mike 1tb m.2 should be fine

latent bronze Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

1650S is good for tight budget 1080p gaming

#

60fps

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

I mean 60hz is ok, I just think it'll be annoying for later purposes

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:40 AM

#

75hz should be ok

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

yeah 1660 s is much cheaper and also like 2 fps lower

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

60hz is ick

muted dawn Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

#

the monitors 75hz

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

#

is 1060 better

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

#

also its a 1660 super is a great gpu, just kinda pricey

latent bronze Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

75hz is pretty much the bare minimum

#

No

#

Yeah thats what I'm sayin but he can't afford it right now he said

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

1660 > 1060 last I checked

muted dawn Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

#

1660 super cheaper than ti so i choose it instead

latent bronze Dec 27, 2019, 4:41 AM

Foot you have to overclock the 1060 by at least 20% to get the performance of my 1660 lol

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:42 AM

#

ok

#

also if i did go intel would a 9400f or 9600k better price to performance

muted dawn Dec 27, 2019, 4:43 AM

what about 9400f and 9600k

i5

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 4:44 AM

I would say get the 9600k, if you are going to overclock that is

deft kiln Dec 27, 2019, 4:44 AM

Typically when a PC just shuts off like that it means one of two things. The CPU is overheating OR the power supply is faulty

#

Check to be sure all the fans are spinning and the CPU isn't getting too hot. If that's the case, try a different power supply

That is the point i am getting at that the manufacture could mention it but if the store doesn't have it and they have older models it wouldn't work and the board doesn't have flashback

This is from the cheapest thing https://i.gyazo.com/666a54a8878263c73047c9f81c363179.png

i don't have experience but from some quick googling i've gathered that VA panels generally have slower response time than TN, but have better color correctness and visual quality

but if this VA panel has 1ms then it should be ok no?

there are some TN panels with 165hz around the same price point, but if VA has noticeably better visuals i'm fine with sacrificing that 21hz

i am trying to find out if the monitor's height is adjustable

#

cause the pictures look like it

#

i think if the height is adjustable then it's fine that i can't change stands

#

ahh it's not

#

but it does say the stand can be removed

#

alright well thanks for all the help guys

Anyone have any experience with omen PC’s found what I think is a pretty good deal but was wondering if any things to look out for when buying a used PC and possibly some upgrade ideas to increase performance a bit. It’s all this for $1000

📎 image0.png 📎 image1.png 📎 image2.png 📎 image3.png

#

It included the monitor which is a 1080p 4ms 60hz monitor which I know isn’t great but not bad

stark siren Dec 27, 2019, 8:13 PM

#

the omens are soso and kinda over priced you could build a better pc for that price and prolly get a better monitor

#

its HP if that helps ....

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:15 PM

#

@strange garden see if you can get the deal without that monitor, the pc n stuff is good for the price, but that monitor is like absolute garbage

#

60hz is bad to begin with, 4ms seals the deal

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:17 PM

#

Its a good deal

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:17 PM

#

@strange garden do you know which specific omen is in the listing? It could be a different omen model

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:17 PM

#

if he's selling that computer, with a monitor keyboard headset and such, good deal

#

yeah true

#

Specifics would be epic, because he could have swapped parts also

Dell S2417DG Review

The Dell S2417DG is a good 1440p gaming monitor with G-Sync variable refresh rate support. It has a TN panel with mediocre picture quality due to the poor native...

#

I found it for 200

#

And added 4 year protection

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:29 PM

#

Majin, 1080p on a 27inch monitor is going to have less pixel density, therefore induvidual pixels would be more visiable than on a 24inch monitor

#

Because 1080p is the same amount of pixels on either monitor

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:30 PM

#

Thats an expensive monitor lmao

#

I mean its a good monitor just I believe it's overkill and expensive, but if you got the cash man. Go for it

Oh wait you got it $200 no thats great lmao

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:43 PM

Nvidia is nvidia, they do things good, just a lil high price

#

You didnt get a blower style one right

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:44 PM

#

Yeah, the 2060S was expensive but what can you do. It was slightly better than the 5700, and the 2080 was WAYYY too much.

#

Let me check.

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:44 PM

#

Blower GPUs tend to be pretty trash

#

5700xt should be a bit cheaper and better perf than 2060s

I have a 3 fan 2070, because it looks nice

2 fans on it is enough

Fair warning, dont expect great rtx performance from it

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:47 PM

#

Yeah I was checking the benchmarks ok it

#

Apparently RTX slows the frame rate by quite a bit

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:47 PM

#

It'll be fine but usually you would want like a 2070s for high frames doing rtx

little osprey Dec 27, 2019, 8:48 PM

#

I see

#

Yeah I’m probably not going to use RTX too much except on games like Metro Exodus

#

Games that utilize it

stoic island Dec 27, 2019, 8:50 PM

I mean theres only a few games that use it

#

Like metro exodus

strange garden Dec 27, 2019, 8:58 PM

It’s a bundle deal, but worst case I’ll sell the monitor and buy a different one. I’m waiting for her to send me the system info to verify the parts are correct

I'm new to PC building, I just built my first one with a R5 3600x and 5700xt. The 5700xt has it's RGB on, and its fans initially spin up on boot, but they immediately stop, and the card is not detected by Windows

At that differnce in size though you will almost not see the differnce I get there is a density difference but I have a 29 inch ultra wide at 1080 and it looks fabulous. A 1440 would look better but it as long as you like it thats what matters

@little osprey you have to have intake on the pc to bring cooler air into the case or you create a negative pressure and the ambient temps will never go down and will cause issue with over heating, second if you dont want to see the stickers then place the fans on the outside blowing into through the rad then you see no stickers

Cpu

old charm Dec 28, 2019, 1:50 AM

#

i am using the one from my ps4

so i know it works

#

the reason I asked is because I think my graphics card powers on a little after everything else

#

which causesit to not power on

#

I should have mentioned the logo flashes on the screen like it is coming on and then it flickers off to "no signal"

#

which would support my theory of the graphics card not being booted up/awake

#

but it's super weird to me

stoic island Dec 28, 2019, 2:01 AM

I mean like monitors usually have their logo flash even without signal

#

no

#

my motherboard logo

#

like the company

#

that's why its weird

#

cuz i know its coming on but its just an issue wit the display

which is why i thought it was the graphics card not powering on right away

going in the bios you don't need a drive

vivid atlas Dec 28, 2019, 3:44 AM

A smaller Sata boot drive could be a way to spend less on an SSD and buy a better CPU

Unless you're doing things like video editing and such the 3950X is pretty pointless for just gaming

That’s decent prices are so high here

Honestly a 3600 is enough IMO just for gaming

10th gen i core series would be a lot better when they come out

#

it's a marketing thing

#

they want you to get the better cpu for around the same price

#

All it is; is that amd stepped up and put pressure on them, they are going to start dropping prices soon

Intels old prices will only stick close to their new prices. So 9th gen and 8th gen will only be like $25 cheaper than 10th gen

#

8th gen will probably be $125 cheaper then 10th gen maybe

#

You're exaggerating a little too much there

cursive wharf Dec 28, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

pretty sure 8th gen will be EOL soon

little osprey Dec 28, 2019, 4:55 AM

#

I highly doubt that but believe what ya want

#

Dont see the 7700k being priced well so I doubt Intel will manage 3 separate series at once

#

I'm sure their marketing team will figure it out, I'm sure the 7th gen will be pretty cheap compared to how it was

You guys have been going on with this debate forever

It's been about 15 mins lmao, pretty lengthy

cursive wharf Dec 28, 2019, 5:00 AM

#

7700k is 8700k price, 7600k is 8600k price, etc

#

It's been a long time now

#

if 7th gen prices were being managed, they'd be changed by now

It's not like they just forget about them, it's that they are probably more focused on something else
