i cant wait for the parts to come in itll be great
Why do you have 2 different ram?@fallow hearth
hopefully no ketchup and mustard cables
What sort if case are you looking for burnz?
hmm
the purchased is my current build, im upgrading @little osprey
one with good airflow
Good
you've learned the most important lesson
This one's just blue π¦
It would have good airflow though, and comes with four fans
i think rgb
Just blue
blue=bad
if they come in quadruplets...
Just blue
no, blue = cool
My case is blue
Well, the fans are blue
haha
lmao i got some cheapo case that cost 20 bucks
it's fine? but no space for expansion
Looks like a furnace
I don't like it
keep u hot for warm summer
only that will generate enough heat to warm your house
hose 
look typing is hard
what hose we talkin bout
yeah i was about to say
everything was great and then a bronze
it looks super good
even popped a 2070 in there
2070 super even better
damn that's a good build
I'll find a better PSU π€£
is that the blue case
blue fan case
yeah
alright its fine i like blue anyways
i mean with 4 fans, you can't go wrong with airflow
looks good
PSU upgrade pls
yes
Case is a personal thing, I usually just slap a decent looking one on
lemme dig around
cant wait to build it
does anyone know if there is a psu watt min on the new 550 boards, or is it just whatever you put on it based?
Looks like we've got the option of the enermax cobra
ill dm yall a pic when im done building it
lmao
@barren kindle Depends what you put in it
that thing is 88 dollars tho
might take a while
thanks bob....thats what i was thinking
We've got a 100 budget leftover for PSU
hey i have? i just bought an B550 ASUS rog strix E and i just got notified that the x570-e rog strix is back in stock should i get the x570 or b550
so i will be safe when i get mine in and installed
Which is cheaper Zerowings?
300 for x570 and 275 for b550
The enermax Revolution is rated well on the PSU tier list
b550 then
i agree
cool
Same tier as cobra though, isn't it?
thanks
alright its confirmed im buying the pc parts i got permission
Nice
that psu tho idk
I mean
We're finding a better one
alright
we try
haha
considering the shortage, it's not easy
wish the case fans were rgb
Pickings are slim
man, the corsair RMx is 105
for the price, which is better the new 550 rog or the 550 tomahawk?
psu fan facing up right for airflow
Depends
depends, yep
oH NO
?
That's not the best guide
ive been studying it
not a guide
seriously?
if you're going to study a guide, watch Linus
seriously, the Verge's build is a meme because of how bad it is
Yes, Linus
the verge PC build video from a year or two ago or whatever is literally the worst guide ever
oh
LINUS
unless they've done a new one since then
bitwit is great too
ltt, jayztwocents, bitwit, all solid techtubers
Screw it, I'm sticking in the cobra
the fact that it worked
haha
is a miracle in of itself
the verge video had me thinking he was legit gonna do the 'thermal paste in the socket' thing
and be serious
lmaoo
yeah honestly
dude iced a cake not a cpu
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3FF8BZ
PSU is bloody overkill, but it's the cheapest gold available right now
haha, yep
1000W
are psu overkills bad?
No
like will my electricity bill be huge
also, memes
It will draw however much power the PC needs, no more
ah got ya
high efficiency means that it pulls as little power form the wall as needed to provide it's rated amount
We've got a 1200W PSU at work
having overhead room for more power is not a bad thing
that's why 80 plus is so important
what does it depend on bob and pen?
lets hope no one finds it
haha let's hope so
Put it in the cart now?
if you have a 500W psu but it's only 50% efficency, it will have to pull 1000W from the wall to give your PC 500W of useable power
@barren kindle What does what depend on?
ditto
damn i would but my parents fast asleep
when i asked about the mobo
wake them up
Ah. Mainly it depends on the CPU and GPU you decide to use
lemme hop on the computer and buy it without them knowing?
lmao jk
and tell them tmrw
Ah. Mainly it depends on the CPU and GPU you decide to use
Also depends on if you're overclocking them
or underclocking
r5 3600 and evga 2060sc
You might honestly. Up to you though
just slip them a $20 or whatever every time they do something like say thank you, untl you paid them back
I underclock my cpu
Probably 500w or more
underclocking wack just undervolt
thing is im broke
what does eco mode do?
it reduces the PPT of my cpu but is that like
undervolting?
thanks sm guys yall didnt have to help me but you went out of your way so i could enjoy gaming a little bit more @jagged ember @sand falcon
π
never over/under clocked anything, yet....so ya
This is a solid build. You will be able to run pretty much anything
hell yeah subnautica
get blue led strip lights to put around room
blue pc
blue rgb keyboard and mouse
blue game
I like blue
im blue dabudee dabudaa
just don't turn on blue light mode on your screen
i'm trying to go blue with my PC
blue kb/mouse right now, trying to get my hands on some blue LED vengeance ram
hello gamers
alright gn yall, big day ahead tmrw
all of my lights in my pc are blue...cept for the white led case lights
send a pic?
anyone have a recommendation for where to get windows 10 the cheapest?
existing windows pc, probably
ebay
i got windows free from windows and got a key off ebay for like $2.08 for win 10 pro
i was able to activate windows on my other pc using the license from my existing one
i got a key from gvgmall for a friend and they haven't had any issues with it
but yeah, if you have an existing license
you can link it to a microsoft account
and activate on multiple PC's
i think up to 5 or something
oh I can activate multiple pcs with my one license?
5
no idea if LTT did it or not, i just remember logging into my microsoft acct for my last install and it was like 'hey you have a digital license now, congrats'
so yeah, go wild
baller
sadly, only have seen one of "linus" vids...was for his concrete cooler...LMAO
I haven't seen that one
concrete cooler is lols
i watch the tech news
i need to start doing that again
yup
I have a complete build already
I want to save up for a h100i
Or a three fan rad

Hmm
my cpu cooler is a noctua..i love it
Air cooler or liquid?
mine is air
depends on the exoticness of your cooler
Like I want a cooler for 75?
in general, AIO cpu cooler is =< air cooler performance
Linus did a few videos on this
it's down to how much looks mean to you
and if you're willing to shoulder an increase in possible points of failure
75 bucks
if you were able to spend, perhaps 30 more, you could get what i have @modern shadow
fair warning, its pretty big though
yup, and i think that is the 1 fan version as well, correct?
i looked at that one, then went with mine...lol
pic of it is in the build pics section
we'll need to see which one performs better
is the wd sn750 1 tb ssd good?
yeah, thats good
π
ssd's are new to me, so i cant answer that....but i did get one...lol
Is it a good time to buy pc parts right now or should I just wait until prices lower a bit?
i bought parts now, only cause my other pc was about dead after 10yrs
Not really in a rush to build a pc
if not in a rush, i would wait then
yup
mobo is too i think
a decent one for the most part, yes
even used PSU stock is in short supply, or it's overpriced because people know about the supply issues
trying to find something cheap that won't explode, and it's hard
tryin to put together a build for flipping, but idk if anyone will even want it, need a cheap PSU and case and i might just have to wait until supply lines settle down
I've just built my first pc it has a ryzen 9 3900x an 5700xt 32 gb ram hyperfury 5.25 tbs various storage. 750w power supply. The weakest part of this build is the mobo which is a gigabyte b450m ds3h. Is it worth it to upgrade this and if so are there affordable options that would offer me more but nothing less?
I'm looking to upgrade at 100 to 200$ help me lol
I dont know how you are running that really
Well safely
@fathom gate just get an x570
I need something with 4 sata slots 1 m.2 , 4 ram slots and am4 socket. Any suggestions?
Lol you guys are scaring the newbie...should I stop using it what could happen?
I havent had issues to this point
Your chip pulls like zero power but the VRMs on that board suck so.
@analog pulsar ehat cooler u have
Because those temps at idel are not good
the stock one
Did u mount it correctly?
yes
You might want to remount it and reapply the termal paster just in case it got messed up because those are very high temps for idel
Even with stock cooler
i might have to do that too
i did
no
@bold robin would an Aorus x570 p prime be a feasible option for me?
Safe temperature doesn't mean it's ok, but maybe for raisen it is. 
lmao
awe welp your out of luck
can i get a server motherboard for am4
with an all core load, ive gone higher
No because it's not a server platform
maybe i should overclock my cpu to see if temps go higher hmmmm
hmm yes quite
@bold robin its 300 usd and 150 for the prime p here in the us
AMD hot and loud
Is the prime p a bad option for half the price?
These are my temps at 4.5GHz under load for comparison. @analog pulsar
You'd probably be better off with an X470 for VRMs.
what cooler?
Air

@bold robin I appreciate the help but I have a final question. If that's factual is an msi gaming x470 plus max what im looking for? I'm lost on specifics and can only spend from 100 to 200 dollars here.
Well your board isn't going to spontaneously explode unless you put it under LN2 or shove 1.5V into it, just save up abit.
I dont overclock as of right now. And im not going to overvolt ever.
Thanks for the advice.
guys should i get a rx 580 ryzen 3 1200 or should i wait for 3 weeks in order to get a ryzen 5 1600 and a rx 5600xt
3 weeks is a lot
not for the massive performance boost u will get
think about this it's like comparing a 1650s to a 2060
i know
if I were u i'd 1000% go for the 2nd one unless u need it right now
what gamer do u play/plan on playing?
sea of thieves,overwatch,tf2,shadow of the tomb raider and many more
mostly overwatch
oh u will definitely want the 2nd one for tomb raider
144fps is pretty important in e sports
and ik that overwatch isnt vry demanding
i wont have 144hz
i will just play games at 60hz 1080p
but personally I think u will b more satisfied with the 5600xt
how much more performance will i get?
i'm getting a bench mark vid right now
sry i'm also lagging a lot
ok it's better now
okay lol
a bit anyway lol
so basically i have watched some benchmarks and it was some big jump around 40 fps in AAA titles
RX 5600 XT vs RX 580 BENCHMARK.
New AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT 6 GB has been released on January 21st.
It is available starting from a price of 279$.
We have review this new RX 5600 XT by comparing it vs RX 580.
Let's find out in this new video benchmark.
To make this benchmark ...
yeh thats what i'm saying
is that vid new?
also that cpu could get u like an extra 5-10 fps I think
dosent matter
still gonna b pretty simular ]
just make sure that the 580 in the vid has the same amount of memory
huh?
yeah it has 8gb
ok good
is overclocking an option?
yeh that sapphire is a good card
I was gonna get a 5600xt but I think i'm gonna get a 1660s just because if I did get a 5600xt I would have to cheap out on other components
and I want to just have a solid build with good upgradeability
i will have a really good power suppply,much storage,case fans and motherboard
ok thats good
so basically i should wait to get the 2nd one?
thats what I would do yes
yeah i could
but the 5600xt is still about 20% faster I think
yeh i'm gonna b able to get my new pc in like a week and a half aswell
can't wait xd
well good luck i'm glad I could help
omg thats awesome!
what case yall recommend for atx mid tower
price limit?
hmm $80
I see a 100 dollar case
Idk if it's good though
not many cheap rgb cases that are good I believe
should i just get the h510 then
h510 doesnt have great airflow
hmm
bad
@austere wren not good
no rgbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
search: from: @sullen spoke 17

@celest spear how nice is that z63?
Hey guys
Can y'all answer a build question for me

Now run it properly at 5.3ghz. @celest spear
Thatβs where itβs at, had the builder move it to that immediately
Does anyone know a good build for VR for around $600 US? (Oculus rift s)
@little osprey you arent going to get very far on 600
Entry lvl? I can upgrade down the rd
to run a rift S without getting sick every time you play, you need at LEAST 1200
5.3 is an unrealistic goal for an average bin 9900k at ambient.
you need to run 1440p @ 90fps
I'm just sick of him having to use my pc to do vr lol
worth a try
Like whole sheet?
just cpu and gpu
use that thing AMD did for interpolation on VR and run off a 570
R7 2700/ 2060S
oh
just remember hearing about it
what vr games does your brother play
but can run at 45Fps and it does interpolation or smth
ok
Just ordered a 1660
Epic gamer moment
Today I'm mailing off my psu to gigabyte for repair :/
@little osprey https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Cyphp8
alright, heres what i have come up with
@viral ore what's that warning?
@little osprey No selling. See rules
it has to do with cpu and motherboard compatability
βΆοΈ ο»Ώ9. No sweepstakes/giveaways, e-begging, trading or selling on this server.
the website cant check, so it leaves it up to the user to figure it out
the motherboard and cpu are compatible tho
So is everything compatible out of box?
yes
That PSU is C tier. I would spend the extra $4 for the higher wattage, B tier one: https://pcpartpicker.com/product/cY2bt6/corsair-cv-650-w-80-bronze-certified-atx-power-supply-cp-9020211-na
That'd be good for vr correct?
i understand the psu is not ideal, but for the actual power draw of the components, the 550w is fine
but, sure, for 4 more $, it cant hurt
and yes, this build will handle vr games
it wont run half life alyx, but at least it wont have to run games like that
It's most likely the fact that the 650w model is different then 550w
Also, if you can afford the upgrade I would get https://www.amazon.com/TEAMGROUP-MP34-512GB-Solid-TM8FP4512G0C101/dp/B07PHMJR4Y @little osprey
As that SSD is dramless
I havent looked into CV much so idk
i do know there is a reason the 650w is better, as i have suggested these psus before
but i didnt realize it was only 4 dollars more rn lol
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/rKpmP6/sk-hynix-gold-s31-500-gb-25-solid-state-drive-shgs31-500gs-2
Or this, as it's a cheaper [than the mp34] sata with dram
Yeah
i lost it when i reset my phone lol
See pins in #storage-devices
ahh, cool
when are you planning on buying these parts?
This is my current case
I think I might get a new one, because AIO clearance is questionable
well, according to the website, it supports a 240mm in front and a 120mm in back
so unless you have other things in the way, a standard thickness rad and fan will fit
I think he means the thickness of the radiator and fans
it says it on their site
only 240mm
Maybe a Lian Li
The amount of times I've rebuilt my PC lately lol
New motherboard and PSU, then redoing cable management
@little osprey when are you planning on purchasing this pc?
this is the best you can do, unfortunatly, lots of other, better components are out of stock
i wanted to get you a b450 mobo, but they were all too expensive, and the better 650w psu is oos everywhere
@hushed pollen
Make sure you get an actually good corsair case. They have some poor offerings in my opinion. Spec omega series was not well designed and isn't very durable
however, there is only one motherboard left in stock
i suggest you buy NOW @little osprey
after watching Linus Tech Tips and other channels for awhile now, I built my first and entire PC with no video reference yesterday and everything worked first try... it's was kewl. loving the 5700xt and 3700x
@viral ore now??
@viral ore was planning on getting it sometime in July
damn it
i always forget to ask that
well, come back the day your ready to buy
then well talk
or someone else
that's a good loose plan but prices change and parts come out π
I currently have a GTX 960, and I am looking for an upgraded graphics card, that is around 300 -500 dollars. anybody have any suggestions?
What CPU do you have? What do you plan to do with it?
i have the Intel Core i7 3770K
Just gaming at 1080p?
https://www.ebay.com/itm/ZOTAC-GAMING-GeForce-RTX-2060-6GB-GDDR6-192-bit-Gaming-Graphics-Card-Super-Comp/383186164591?epid=26034440609&hash=item5937acdb6f%3Ag%3A1icAAOSwRSBdkzTa&LH_BIN=1
This would be a solid choice for high settings at 1080p and RTX support
dunno you could get a 5700xt/2070S at $500
For 1440phttps://www.amazon.com/dp/B07WW2SZRY?tag=georiot-us-default-20&th=1&psc=1&ascsubtag=tomshardware-4025517870301644000-20
ACtually there's a 5700 XT for $380 here
Wait nvm, I don't think powercolor is a super reputable brand
Theyβre a good brand
Really? Aight
they make the red devil cards
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B087N8NYX4?th=1
$420 for the best AMD card currently.
https://www.newegg.com/asrock-radeon-rx-5600-xt-rx5600xt-cld-6go/p/N82E16814930030
$270... more budget 1080p option
the amazon one is a 5600xt btw
Oops, good catch
I want to upgrade my PC a bit. I currently have a Ryzen 5 2600 and a 1060, and I'd like to upgrade to a 1660 super
If I upgrade the graphics card to the 1660 super should I also upgrade my CPU or will the current one be fine
Debating on building a system around one of the new 550 boards while I save up to eventually build the xtreme based pc
My finished build. Just have to install the new MOBO and PSU and two more fans.
Where would I find a 3300x that is in stock and not $5000?
Let me know if you find one
looking to build a new pc, so i am thinking R5 3600 and a new B550 board. but not sure on the graphics card. i don't really play anything more than WoW, but i would like to play that and Overwatch on more than Lowest of Low settings. i was thinking the GTX 1660 Super?
@quick pond to save money you could get a 3300x and 1650s
and a b450 board instead
let me make a list for you
whats youbudget?
can somebody create me a pc parts list with a budget of 1350 USD. RGB and a lot of corsair products would be appeciated. PC for gaming and light streaming and some hw
@spiral flax sure
k
RGB+corsair = $400 of random waste
Pretty much
ik lol
you can still get rgb but not corsair
k
only corsair thing that might happen is PSU
as Corsair PSUs are usually well priced
fax
fact
Ye
tell me when done with list homies
Problem is corsair psus are out of stock pretty much everywhere
@spiral flax https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xX38BZ
thx
+50fps
@cursive wharf you could get rgb ram and a better cooler at that price
rgb RAM that isnt 3600 CL16
no no sorry I meant in the budget
just get a 3700x instead
He has a 100 more to spend and he can get rgb ram or a better cooler because even though the stock cooler is fine you could do better
wtb rgb ram that is faster than cl18
anyways, that just means 3700x
Also no
would a R5 3600 do good with VR?
yeah
I'm trying to make a better priced build for my future PC
seeming as how the R5 3600 is still a really good CPU as I keep seeing
I'm about to sell my pc at a profit
Im wondering how much my 6700k will sell tbh
not sure why but I just feel like I should
Hei you think I should sell or not?
80+ bronze okay since its budget? or should I go expensive with it?
keep in mind I have a 5700 XT THICCCCCCCCCCC III in the build
I mean you probably can, but it'd probs take some effort to do
how much is RTX 3000 gonna be? 
I already have a buyer on offer up with 40 positive review and true you
And I'm selling for a profit of about 150 ish
should I go a bit more up in PSU Price and at the very least do Semi Modular? I kinda feel like I'd benefit from it
Whats your build?
Its a little on the expensive side but its alot better than my other build with the 3700x and 1660S
@mortal void you just doing video editing?
I was just gonna do gaming, thats why I'm putting together this new build
Then don't go with 3700x and 1660s
yeah no
@mortal void why not?
that one is about an $1800 Build before the taxes break my wallet. This current one is $1467 before taxes
@mortal void there is a better gaming build for the price
yeah I kinda realized that
^
this one I did isn't as budget as it can be, but I put a few things I need/want
I'm happy with it
@mortal void A btter choice would be mp34 with a 2tb baracuda and then put more moeny into the gpu
Those fans are very pricey
non pwm and they are likely crap
voltage control then, also case fans dont need to spin that fast
Those fans are very pricey
@little leaf
I was thinking of doing Silent Wings 3 lmao
so even bad fans dont sound loud when at low rpm
the issue is I have no idea how well the stock fans would move air
I can either have a higher cost now, with good fans. Or take my chances of the Stock Fans
I'm debating
It's not like you're going to be running them at 100rpm either, probs maybe 300 - 500 rpm
running with stock fans at first will allow me to take the price of the 3 fans I was gonna buy, and probably put the cost into a better PSU
hopefully at least semi modular at that point
without accounting for taxes thats about $70 to spend elsewhere
not sure where to put it other than PSU
PSU budget could be $159.99 if I cut the fans out
this is what I did
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/nT7Chg
I like choice for PSU. Case seems good, is it a good airflow case? Would prefer PSU shroud but eh. Not super important. I really would like the 1TB SSD for Games and Files. Keeping the MP34 for Boot Drive. The cheaper RAM is probably fine. Even if its 3200
HDD to SSD doesnt do much for dedicated game drive tbh
only really see a difference for OS drive
thats fair
@sharp viper RX580
wouldn't games load faster with SSD? or are the loading times negligible?
noticeable by an okay amount side by side, smth like 10 secs or so
so not really worth the price then?
some games it might be
hmm
I need to put together a new parts list for my temp pc
I need a suggestion for an affordable motherboard for my rig. I have a 9th gen Intel i7 CPU, two x8GB of 2666 RAM a GTX 1060 VPU, a Samsung SSD (not m.2!) and an audioblaster sound card. I am really looking for an inexpensive board. Do you think this would do the trick?: https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16813145149?Item=N82E16813145149 any advice would be greatly appreciated (this is my 1st build.)
Idk if you wanna go with that cheap a chipset. At least go for this one, it's actually cheaper with a better chipset https://pcpartpicker.com/product/WfF48d/asus-prime-b360m-a-micro-atx-lga1151-motherboard-prime-b360m-a
Is my build bad for a budget, Ryzen 5 3600,1650s ,gskill ripjaws 16gb
Oh also b450m ds3h motherboard
What budget?
Hey, Night, thanks for the suggestion!
psu/case shopping on a budget is a crapshoot. there's a line between cheap and a good deal and cheap and a piece of junk and supply issues make it that much worse
Yep, np
this is annoying
Any answers for my build? (Scroll up)
Iβd see if you can grab a 3300x for $120 (anything more the value vs a 3600 decreased a lot) and see if you could get a slightly better gpu like a 1660S
If you can spare $5, go for this https://www.amazon.com/TEAMGROUP-MP34-512GB-Solid-TM8FP4512G0C101/dp/B07PHMJR4Y
qlc vs tlc
Already got the stuff lol
Ok then
is tomie still streaming mc
is the MX330-X any good or nah?
Itβs not bad for itβs price
How much is 70 Canadian to usd?
Ask google
about $50
$70 is $49.6515 USD apparently
so $50
but I doubt that'd be accurate on PCPartPicker
Check out a rose will challenger if ur willing to spare like 3 bucks in usd
Pretty decent case
its $69.99 as well
Do I need a heat sync for my m.2 ssd (just for gaming)
just the regular Challenger?
OMG it looks so old lmao
oof the HDD Cages are riveted
nah chief it ain't for Me lol
Yeah itβs ok itβs decent for budget I guess
I just wanted to look at non windowed options. My SSD is kinda ugly to have it showing to the world lol
Is a b700h or Thermaltake toughpower 650w better
trynna budget. I have a Deepcool E-Shield on my build RN
dumb question
can a 3 pin fan plug into a 4 pin?
yh
Ye
ok cool
What happens if u donβt set it to dc
It'll just run at 100%
Oh
Good to know cuz mine is like that lol
Are stock fans good to keep if Iβm budgeting
I'm probably gonna do ASRock B450M PRO4 because it has more than 2 Fan Headers than the ASRock B450M PRO4-f which only has a 4-pin and 3-pin. Although would I only need 2 fans to keep it cool?
I mean amount of fan headers I donβt think it matters cuz of fan splitters donβt quote me on this tho
@little leaf sorry for the long response, i love the idea of a 3300x, but that is like $200, $80 overpriced. and i was hoping for some light streaming capabilities, and maybe some slight future-proofing, hence the b550 mobo.
would a tower come with a fan splitter?
Amd said b450 would support gen 4
just in-case I needed more than 2 fans?
yes, if you do something to the b450's bios, and then said that if it bricks, not their problem. at least, that's what i got out of it.
Quick question, is it possible to get an adapter to use a GPU externally for say a laptop with an integrated gpu
Depends on the case but even if no fan splitters theyβre super cheap
I'll just do the regular Pro4. Its only like a $13 difference from the Pro4-f
for total cost
Ok
How much fans does it case support
Ur* lmao Iβm on a phone so autocorrect is trash
i could be wrong, of course,
Pre-installed: Rear: 1Γ120mm fan; Optional: Front: (Without CD-ROM installed) 3Γ120mm or 3Γ140mm; (With CD-ROM installed) 2Γ120mm or 2Γ140mm, Top: 2Γ120/140mm
@little osprey yes
That's a lot of fans
If you have thunderbolt 3
looks like 5 with CD-Rom and 6 without CD-Rom? 
That's a lot

This is the build I'm going with. Now just need Money 
anyway gtg
Dang expensive GPU
what temp should my gpu run at its at 40c
Dang expensive GPU
@little osprey
Less expensive than RTX equivalent, and honestly better IMO since I don't care about Ray Tracing
True, I got a 970
@mortal void 5700xt over 2070S?
That's what he did
Y
Cheaper and doesn't care about raytracing
What are peoples thoughts on the asus zephyrus g14? Isn't 1660ti worse than 2060?
They're about the same
Actually it's not cheaper.. it's more expensive. MSI GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER DirectX 12 RTX 2070 SUPER VENTUS GP OC 8GB 256-Bit GDDR6 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card https://www.newegg.com/product/N82E16814137528?ignorebbr=1&m_ver=1
@covert crypt they both have above 1800 mhz boost speed and are a 6GB GPU
@little osprey π€·ββοΈ
Maybe for his area it's cheaper
Maybe
@covert crypt 2060 got rt if your in to that though
That's really the only major difference
I need help building a pc I have a $1100 CAD buget and I have a 144hz monitor and I want to play games like cod, fallout 76, csgo, valorant and minecraft
You could do that for probably around $8-900
Especially since you have monitor already
1080p or 1440
1080
Ok
AMD or Intel?
@little osprey keep in mind CAD is a little weaker than usd
I saw
1 USD is 1.36 CAD
No streaming only gaming
Yeah for the price it probably is
Ok
So @little osprey I'm thinking 5 3600 and maybe a 1660 S
Sal is that ur actual specs? Lol
For now
Just missing a few parts
@little osprey could work
I think you could throw in an rtx 2060 ko though
And rn I have more important things to worry about then computer hardware
@little osprey I understand
Rn I have a laptop so I def need a pc for my monitor
Well if he's not streaming and only doing 1080, a 2060 might be a bit much
True, but more "future proof"
A1660 or a 1660 Super would do
Only benefit for a 2060 would be rtx in Minecraft
@hazy ridge I'll put a pcp list together
@hazy ridge you have storage?
And if your not doing rtx, then a 1660 Super would be the furthest I'd go
I have a execces storage 3tb
Ok
SSD or HDD?
Not really no
Take a pic and send it to me?
Of what?
The drive
It's called a my book here I'll send a pic
I need maximum price so I get the best spec thoe
So @little osprey has a good build I think
But will it run cod warzone at 60 fps @little osprey
@hazy ridge yessir
Why a gx2?
Gx2 is dramless
Team Vulcan / Team L5 3d have dram
Also true
Dram isn't something you should just skimp on
The drive just slowly killing itself isnt good
Truthfully we could just put a 250gb drive just for os
Even a 120
If just for os
Just... Get a different drive
Mp34 512gb for 70$ if you want a fast boot drive
Or sn750 500gb at around the same price
What about an adata su655?
Still dramless
860 evo
All I have to plug in is ethernet, mouse, keyboard, headset, monitor and the external drive
Team Vulcan 1tb and team L5 3d 1tb usually sit around the 100$ mark
Here we go 256 cache plextor m8vh $53.48
All the Samsung stuff other than t7 has dram
128 gb
Ouch
@stoic island that's my ssd
4.0 drive eh
Oh wrong one
Looked at vp4100 lol
Vpn100 seems good if prices are decent
For me $49.99
For how big
512 mg cache
How much for 512gb and 1tb?
1tb is 156
512 is 85
Rip
256gb price is decent tho
I'd say for good nvme drives it should be <50 256gb, <70 512gb, <130 1tb
And for a boot drive the vpn100 should be good
list including boot drive
I realized a lot of people have their specs in their name so now so do I lol
I personally wouldn't go under 512gb for boot drive as I like to put games on boot drive, but 256gb is fine
@little osprey no don't
Don't join them
Uh oh
Naed, he has a 3tb external drive so im assuming he has his games and stuff on there
Ya I have my games on my external
I just have personal preference
so a 256 should do
I went straight from laptop hard drive to MP510
I'm on a laptop:(
