Like video editing, rendering

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:46 AM

#

ah no plans to be doing any rendering at the moment

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:46 AM

#

Using 3d editing programs etc

#

Ok

#

Cuz imo the only reason for a X570 board would be for more overclocking headroom and pcie4

#

And right now that m.2 ssd is not pcie4 iirc

#

So theres really no purpose in spending the extra buck for an x570

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:47 AM

#

Any other boards you would reccomend for the build then?

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:48 AM

#

And I would also recommend some faster ram as well

#

I'll edit that part list a bit

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:48 AM

#

Thanks a lot

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

Wow ram is expensive in uk

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:52 AM

#

Is it way cheaper elsewhere?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:53 AM

#

Wonderful

#

Do you have amazon prime

#

If so, find some that ships free from america

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Me me pump is the one ordering

#

So I guess that's a question for u

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Oh my bad

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

I have Amazone Prime anyway so no worries

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Just got here

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Nah nw it's a good idea

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

But yeah filtering for prime is a good shout

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

Mhm

#

You wont have as wide of a choice but it will still probably have some

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:54 AM

#

And yeah it's a lot cheaper AFAIK in canada and us

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:55 AM

#

Yeah

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:55 AM

#

Geuss the UK just doesn't make much RAM?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:55 AM

#

No

#

The US just dominates the pc building industry

#

And canada is really close

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

Hopefully there'll be some decent RAM shipping from the US then

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:56 AM

#

I can check at the same time

#

How much do you want?

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:57 AM

#

I was looking for a 3600 cl16

#

For him

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:57 AM

#

Hmmm ok

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:58 AM

#

Rn the build has 3200 cl16, which isn't too much of a difference

#

But with some luck, there'll be a decent 3600 16 kit for not too much more

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:58 AM

#

Sorry if I'm not able to answer questions all that well I'm not very knowledgeable about pc parts

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 11:58 AM

#

It's OK

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 11:59 AM

#

Thanks again for all the help

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 11:59 AM

#

Its fine

#

I found one for 88

#

Ships free

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

Hmm, the current 3200 cl16 is £56

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

Teah

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

Which is a pretty good deal

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

I got one from america I mean

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:00 PM

#

Let me Google pound to usd conversion

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:01 PM

#

It's like 80 I think

#

73.96

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:01 PM

#

Oh OK perfect

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:01 PM

#

Ye

#

Hey I'm making a new build you mind checking out everything?

#

I need a 2nd opinion

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/7p7Np8

#

I know the ram is not amazing but

#

Its rgb

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:03 PM

#

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/bJJ3Rk @stone garden

#

Saved like £40 or so on mobo

#

That can go towards a better mobo

#

And can u link the ram u found girafe

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:04 PM

#

Wait

#

Does he already have a desktop with windows?

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:04 PM

#

And yeah I'll look

#

Good question

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:04 PM

#

I'm assuming that the bios warning isn't actually an issue

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

No

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Correct

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

It rarely is

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

I do currently have a desktop with windows 7

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Oh

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Hmm

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Well if you're fine with that you can save

#

But I'd just get windows 10

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Yeah

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Can u still upgrade for free from 7 to 10?

#

Or nawh

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

No

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Ahh unlucky

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

Nah

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:05 PM

#

That was only for like 1 year I think

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

They stopped that after the windows 10 beta was over or something

#

I regret not doing it at the time now T_T

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

I mean what

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

lol

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

Huh?

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

No illegal things going on here

#

:)

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

I'm certainly not against that

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:06 PM

#

I have one with win 10 so its easier

#

Well I mean......

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:07 PM

#

Isn't windows 10 pretty much free anyway?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:07 PM

#

No

#

70 pounds

#

Or like 69

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:07 PM

#

nice

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:07 PM

#

Hehe

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:08 PM

#

I was under the impression that you could download it for free but had then had to buy a super cheap cd key

#

Though I geuss those super cheap keys aren't on the official websites huh

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:09 PM

#

Hehe no they aren't

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:09 PM

#

Is 2070 super good for 1080p?

#

It is right

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:10 PM

#

Yeah ok

#

Just had a look at ur build

#

Won't comment much on peripherals

#

Those are mostly preference and they look good

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:11 PM

#

Yeah

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:11 PM

#

That monitor is quite a cheap 144hz tho

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:11 PM

#

I know

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:11 PM

#

I believe Linus tech tips have a review on it

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:11 PM

#

But good reviews

#

I'll check

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

Where they pointed out some ghostinf/yellowing issues

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

YeAh

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

Oh yeah that reminds me, @stone garden you don't need to worry about liquid cooling, that air cooler is 👌

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

True

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:12 PM

#

That's great

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

I chose the AIO for ultra overclocking

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

Was slightly worries about needing to learn how to install a water cooler and destroying my computer

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

It's not that hard

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

I don't imagine it's super difficult but I can still imagine myself somehow soaking all of my parts lol

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

They have tutorials for everything

#

Its closed

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:13 PM

#

Did u choose wifi X570 cuz u need the wifi?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:14 PM

#

No its chea

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:14 PM

#

Hmmm

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:14 PM

#

Im not the best with using b450s and flashing it

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:14 PM

#

Overclocking on cheap x570's results in rather high temps

#

From what I've read and heard

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:15 PM

#

Would it be better with a good b450?

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:15 PM

#

Most of the popular b450's don't need flashing for ryzen 3000 compatibility

#

If they have MAX in the title, they come with ryzen 3000 support already installed

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:15 PM

#

Oh ok

#

Didnt know that

#

I can save a lot then, and also get better stuff

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:15 PM

#

U caaaan overclock on b450 but

#

U mentioned ultra overclocking

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

Not ultra

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

So u probably want a good x470 or X570 board

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

Yeah

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

A good X570 will cost

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

230+

#

I've done research

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:16 PM

#

Nice

#

Idk much about x470's tbh

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:17 PM

#

Same I'll check

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:17 PM

#

But I assume theyre a decent amount cheaper

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:17 PM

#

Hopefully

#

He says it's pretty good

#

For 150 at least

#

Only at 144 tho

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:19 PM

#

Oh was that the one he overclocked to 165

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:19 PM

#

Then 240hz

#

Yeah

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:19 PM

#

Or higher I don't r e. Ever

#

Remember

#

What did he say about ghosting

#

I don't really remember, just know he said smth about it

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:19 PM

#

He said theres smearing but no artifacts

#

He says dang for the price

#

Oh the sceptre includes a display port

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:21 PM

#

Oh OK then go all for it if it satisfies u :D

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:21 PM

#

Yeah my current is a monitor from like 2013

#

So I'll definitely notice the difference

#

470s are pretty expensive

#

I mean the ryzen 7 3700x is good without overclocking right

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:28 PM

#

For sure

#

I'm not sure about how much ull gain from overclocking

#

As ryzen 3000 is alreqdy pushed to near limit

#

That said, overclocking on b450 is still viable

#

If u just want to push the 3700 a lil more

#

And u save some bucks

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:32 PM

#

I did

#

I saved a lot of bucks

#

I can probably get a 2080 then

#

I might get non rgb ram....

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:33 PM

#

😅

#

It's OK maybe 2020 won't be rgb addiction

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:34 PM

#

Idk 2080s are expensive I'll see one sec

#

Ok no rgb ram

#

Hmmm

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/fPjrGc

#

Updated list

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:37 PM

#

I'd spend the extra $11 for a b450 tomahawk max

#

Just skip a meal one day, it's worth

#

Xd

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:38 PM

#

It is max

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:39 PM

#

Yeah but u chose the gaming plus

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:39 PM

#

Yes

#

Gaming plus MAX

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:40 PM

#

AFAIK, the tomahawk has better vrms

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:40 PM

#

I couldnt find any max tomahawk

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:41 PM

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bJJ3Rk

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:41 PM

#

Nvm I'm sticking with the 2070 super

#

It's still good

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:41 PM

#

Yeah I was gunna talk about that next

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

Ohhhh

#

Ok

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

2080 for 1080p 144hz

#

It's a bit much

#

Even for max settings

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

Even the 2060 super is

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

I think 2070s is perfect choice

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:42 PM

#

Yeah

#

And good price

#

Then I can get rgb ram hehe

jaunty karma Dec 31, 2019, 12:45 PM

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:45 PM

jaunty karma Dec 31, 2019, 12:45 PM

#

Around 40-80

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 12:46 PM

The G-502 hero is 42, dont have it but it seems like it's really good

#

It's a bit heavy

jaunty karma Dec 31, 2019, 12:47 PM

This one is 65 pounds 2x8 3600

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:05 PM

Oh I never found any on Amazon or pc part picker I was just under the impression you had found one for a good deal?

Yeah does it

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:11 PM

#

Oh no sorry

that's super weird

#

I changed the url when I put it in to the uk website

#

but it's way more expensive for some reason on the uk site

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:12 PM

#

Yeah

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:12 PM

#

That's pretty odd huh

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

Hmm, unless u find a 3600mhz cl16, I wouldn't bother shipping from America

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

Yeah

#

The price is a bit higher but honestly its easier

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:13 PM

#

3600cl18 and 3200cl16 have same true latency

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:14 PM

#

Thanks for linking that tomahawk max btw

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:14 PM

#

So I would just get the original 3200cl16 that was in the original link from reddit since it's good enuf

#

And np

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:14 PM

#

ah alright I'll just add it back to the part picker list

#

Thanks for the advice man

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:15 PM

#

Now I'm under budget by 160 dollars yaaay

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:16 PM

uh stupid question but how would I be able to find and add back the ram from the reddit list

Also I think I got it sorted

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:17 PM

#

Good

#

Do you already have monitor, mouse, keyboard etc.

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:19 PM

#

Yeah pretty much

#

I'm gonna be getting a new monitor though since my current is just 60hz

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:19 PM

#

Ok

#

Make sure to work that into your budget

#

1080p?

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:20 PM

#

Was probably gonna go for 1440p

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:20 PM

#

Mk

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:20 PM

#

but I could cut back to 1080 without being too worried

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:20 PM

#

If you have the budget go for 1440 by all means

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:21 PM

#

I wouldn't cut back to 1080p with a 2080 super

#

That's sort of just a waste

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:21 PM

#

Yeah that's what I was thinking

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:21 PM

Unless u trying to play bf5 rtx max settings 144hz lol

How does rtx actually work btw?

It just has ray tracing

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:22 PM

#

I've heard a lot of talk about it but wasn't sure how much it actually did

sterile wave Dec 31, 2019, 1:22 PM

#

Basically u sacrifice like 30% of ur performance or more

#

For some better lighting

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:22 PM

#

Yep

It's always weird when you find someone online that's even remotely clsoe to you irl

#

You never really consider where others are from online

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:24 PM

I met up with one once

did it go well?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:28 PM

Yeah

He was friends with my irl friend

Also I recently met up with my best friend from 3rd grade

#

He moved to saudia arabia

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:33 PM

#

First how much you willing to spend

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

Are they not all roughly the same price?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:34 PM

#

Nope

#

1440p is pretty expensive

#

It all depends

#

On how much

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:35 PM

#

I know it is expensive but I mean if it's 1440 and 144 won't all of the same specs be around the same average

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:35 PM

#

Theres also the colors

#

Some have vibrant some are dull

#

The wider the spectrum the more expensive

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:35 PM

#

ah alright i never really considered other monitor specs than res and hz

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:35 PM

#

I can find one just gimme ur budget for it

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:36 PM

#

I'd probably be looking for nothing more expensive than like £300?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:36 PM

#

Hmmm

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:36 PM

#

But I'm not really sure on the average price for monitors since I've not looked into them till now

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:36 PM

#

Lemme see

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:37 PM

#

I might be willing to stretch the budget if they're all way more expensive than that

#

I'll take a look on amazon and check the averages

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:37 PM

#

One sec

#

Found one for 190 pounds

#

Lemme check reviews

oh that's a lot cheaper than I was expecting

Same

4 stars

I should be able to just keep my current monitor and use it too right?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:49 PM

Oh yeah true

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:49 PM

#

Or will the different resolutions cause issues?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:49 PM

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:50 PM

Dont trust me saying that though, never done it myself

stone garden Dec 31, 2019, 1:50 PM

Keep stuff like discord open on the worse one

It'll be worth a shot anyway

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 1:50 PM

If you dont dual screen itll be fine

#

You can look at tutorials or something

hey everyone, I am looking to put together a new system as the main drive I want to purchase XPG SX8200 Pro PCIe NVMe Gen3 x4 M.2 2280 512GB SSD (ASX8200PNP-512GT-C). Would this drive be good and 100% compatible with ASUS 970 PRO GAMING/AURA AMD AM3+ FX DDR3 Intel Gb Ethernet M.2 USB 3.1 970 ATX Motherboard this motherboard?

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 2:49 PM

That CPU is not a good choice

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 2:53 PM

FX 8350 is 8 years old now?

#

i wouldnt recommend buying one new

#

lol

#

@obsidian sand

#

yep

#

just about 8 years old

#

even when it released

#

it wasnt very good

upper condor Dec 31, 2019, 2:55 PM

Exactly

#

On paper it looks eh, 8 core 4.0ghz but then

#

8 years?

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 2:55 PM

not even a true 8 core

whats your budget for the new PC?
what are you using the PC for?
what country are you buying the PC in?

#

I am actually rebuilding a PC with old parts

#

?!??!?!!

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:02 PM

#

no, that SSD is not compatible with that motherboard

#

any M.2 or NVMe SSD will not be compatible

#

@obsidian sand

Got a question for you all. Looking to upgrade my motherboard in the near future from a b450m for my 3900x, anyone gor recommendations at the 200 price point?

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:09 PM

#

oooh it does

#

1 x M.2 Socket 3, , with M Key, type 2242/2260/2280 storage devices support (PCIE 2.0 x4)

#

is XPG SX8200 Pro PCIe NVMe Gen3 x4 M.2 2280 512GB SSD (ASX8200PNP-512GT-C) compatible with that m.2 socket 3 with M key?

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:11 PM

#

hmm, technically it is, but its an older slot thats only half the speed of what the drive is capable of

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:12 PM

#

ahhh so its not worth it than, I currently have an EVO 850 SSD and this drive is like 2x as fast but u r saying it would be a waste because the old port won't be able to support the fast speed of the drive anyway?

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

yep, the SSD is a PCIe 3.0 4x, and the slot on the old AMD motherboard is a PCIe 2.0 4x.

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

what would be the best / highest end video card to put in this FX 8350 machine without bottlenecking, I currently have an R9 280x in it by Windforce

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:13 PM

#

most any modern graphics card you put in that PC will be bottlenecked by your CPU

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:14 PM

#

unless you're picking out something extremely low end

#

like a RX 550, or a GT 1030

#

do you already have the motherboard? or are you planning on buying it? @obsidian sand

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

yes yes yes I have the motherboard

#

its an existing PC

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

what is your budget to upgrade this PC?

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:15 PM

#

just wanted to know if I can put that drive into it and if I would notice a significant difference in speed vs my EVO 850 SSD

#

i dont have any money, i am broke, in debt and unemployed but I did get a 100$ gift card for christmas that would allow me to get that m.2 drive

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:17 PM

#

you would see very little performance increase at all upgrading from a sata based SSD, that you currently have, to a NVMe SSD, in just system responsiveness, programs opening faster, etc etc. there is 0 benefit to workstation, or gaming performance upgrading your SSD.

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:18 PM

#

okay, thank you very much Demonmit1

#

I am currently studying for my CompTIA A+ and I figured I'd upgrade to a bigger SSD so I can run some virtual boxes of it

#

my current SSD is only 250, wanted to get at least a 500

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:20 PM

#

you'd probably find better use in getting a 1TB sata SSD for around $80-$90

#

if you specifically need storage

muted patio Dec 31, 2019, 3:20 PM

#

PCI-E 2.0 M.2, which that motherboard supports, is 500MB/s, the same as a Sata SSD

obsidian sand Dec 31, 2019, 3:21 PM

#

Demonmit, I have been looking at the Evo 970 PLUS

would htat be a waste too I guess?

that would honestly be the best option, as SSD prices will continue to drop in price, so, once you've got enough together to build a new system, high performance SSD storage should be cheaper

Hi

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:28 PM

#

@quartz hill the Gigabyte X570 aorus elite, and the Asus TUF gaming X570-plus (WiFi) are the two best options in that price range right now

graceful falcon Dec 31, 2019, 3:31 PM

#

I'm using an Aorus Elite with my 3600 and it's been great. Only complaint so far is that Gigabyte's RGB software is terrible, and that's more a minor inconvenience than anything.

austere condor Dec 31, 2019, 3:33 PM

if you need wifi, go for the TUF, if you dont, go for the aorus elite

I was just reading the Xplane forums and that graphics won't work. People report 1-2 FPS in the demo version. Apparently there's a demo version to try but..........yeah. No go.

@muted patio Only one M2 slot on that board

#

yet two M2 drives

#

Also with a 1k budget cant you afford a 5700XT, $400 GPU? If you need CUDA for whatever you're talking about there is 2060S

cursive wharf Jan 1, 2020, 1:03 AM

I looked at older comments. That old pc would not last longer in future. New build and better.

formal plover Jan 1, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

Hey, anyone here?

#

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:43 AM

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4BTK7T

#

I kniw someone has complaints tell me

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 1:44 AM

#

I would probably switch the ssd to 500gb

#

And wait till some of the stuff goes on sale

#

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/M2ZmL2

#

This one is mine ☝️

#

Also the MM300 mousepad is super long

#

I got the MM350 and it is bigger than I expected

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:49 AM

#

Good case choice

#

Why dont you get the 750w corsair? Its the same price

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 1:51 AM

#

Didn’t realize it went on sale

#

Thanks

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:54 AM

#

What gpu and cpu

#

And what type if ram

#

If it aint ddr4, no

vivid coral Jan 1, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

idk what ram its has i have to ask my dad

#

he put it in 7+ yrs ago

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:55 AM

#

Pretty much has to be ddr4

#

Oh

vivid coral Jan 1, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

ok

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

Yeah its not ddr4

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

Yah

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:56 AM

#

Youd need to upgrade the ram

#

And probably the MOBO

vivid coral Jan 1, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

ooooooo so at that point im bulilding a new pc, no?

upper condor Jan 1, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

Yeah pretty much

#

So id just build a new budget one

vivid coral Jan 1, 2020, 1:57 AM

#

ok

sterile wave Jan 1, 2020, 2:03 AM

#

Yeah most parts from 7+ years ago won't be compatible with much today

#

Harddrives and ssd's at most

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:07 AM

#

just posted a pic of my build in #build-pics anyone have any suggestions on cable management for the aio

sterile wave Jan 1, 2020, 2:10 AM

#

Damn

#

Tough life

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 2:11 AM

#

What did you put on your exhaust fans @ionic lagoon

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

what do you mean

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

Looks like mini glass panels

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:12 AM

#

i didnt put anything its just my camera

sterile wave Jan 1, 2020, 2:13 AM

#

Doesn't look like there's much to do there with those hanging cables

#

Apart from getting shorter cables :/

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:14 AM

#

ok thx

sterile wave Jan 1, 2020, 2:14 AM

#

Or maybe nicely wrapping them behind that thing beside the rad

#

But I don't think that'll do much hehe

#

Maybe u could turn the cpu cooler upside down and have the cable be more stretched out xd

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:16 AM

#

no im not worried about the pipes just the cables going to the sata power and fans behind the back panel

sterile wave Jan 1, 2020, 2:17 AM

#

Oh

#

I see

#

peeposhrug

ionic lagoon Jan 1, 2020, 2:18 AM

#

ok

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 2:20 AM

#

What are some good intel motherboards

#

I have an msi z390 a in my cart

dusky lantern Jan 1, 2020, 2:27 AM

#

Is there any big difference between the three:

ZOTAC GAMING GEFORCE GTX1660 SUPER AMP 6GB GDDR6, 192 bit, 1845/14000, HDCP, Three DP, HDMI, Medium pack ZT-T16620D-10M
EVGA GeForce GTX 1660 Super 6 GB SC ULTRA GAMING Video Card
Asus Dual DUAL-GTX1660S-O6G-EVO GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER Graphic Card - 6 GB GDDR6 - 1.53 GHz Core - 192 bit Bus Width - DisplayPort - HDMI - DVI

The price is roughly the same aside from a 5~10$ diff

real epoch Jan 1, 2020, 2:30 AM

#

Not a noticeable difference

vestal cove Jan 1, 2020, 3:01 AM

#

Not much of a difference

#

I would probably go with the zotac gaming

What do you guys think about this computet? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jWyh9G

dark thistle Jan 1, 2020, 3:10 AM

#

@swift helm what are those specs that's pretty lol

formal plover Jan 1, 2020, 3:11 AM

#

What do you think of this pc? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/jWyh9G

dark thistle Jan 1, 2020, 3:18 AM

#

@formal plover that's like BUDGET budget

sacred obsidian Jan 1, 2020, 3:25 AM

#

also that cpu doesnt work with that mobo

#

wait im wrong

#

i didnt realize they still use a8

#

its not horrible for how budget it is and would be fine for upgrading in the future but if that's the plan you probably should spend a little more on a psu imo. you wont be able to game on that though i don't think

round flare Jan 1, 2020, 3:41 AM

#

if ur gonna go igpu go 2200g

#

or smth similar

formal plover Jan 1, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

What psi do you reccomend? And what differences does a more expensive one have?

round flare Jan 1, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

500w is plenty for most builds tbh

#

650 can handle a 2080s and 3950x

sacred obsidian Jan 1, 2020, 3:43 AM

#

i usually tell people to get a 750 but i would say minimum 650

round flare Jan 1, 2020, 3:44 AM

#

For igpu gaming 500 is okay

#

even with a gpu

#

he could toss in a 570 or something similar

#

and it would be smooth

sacred obsidian Jan 1, 2020, 3:45 AM

#

but what if he wants to upgrade to much better specs later on? i feel like 500 has a lot of limits too when upgrading and IMO its best to be able to upgrade as little as possible at a time to save money

formal plover Jan 1, 2020, 3:54 AM

#

There are some cheap 650w psus

dark thistle Jan 1, 2020, 4:16 AM

#

@sacred obsidian which 750 you think?

#

Also most builds will do ok with a GOOD 550w like the Corsair CX

#

But for $3 more you can get the 650w version lol

sacred obsidian Jan 1, 2020, 4:18 AM

#

iunno any noteworthy brand really. i just avoid sketchy stuff and look for modulars and well known brands lol

#

modular for cable management and well known brands cause ive been burned to many times buying sketchy stuff

#

but it really depends on budget

formal plover Jan 1, 2020, 4:36 AM

#

So, I'm making another one, and I have a question

#

Does it matter if you have 2 x 4gb sticks of ram or 1 x 8gb, because it would be cheaper to do 1 × 8gb

warped moat Jan 1, 2020, 4:37 AM

#

Yea it does

#

2x4 would be better since it can be used in duel channel
