Nopers- just bridge the 2
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I GOT 4
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
i wasted to much money
Well, if you got 4 you could prob easily sell the other 2
High demand low availability
yea i might refund em
If you YouTube Gamers Nexus has TONS of great vids
I’m thinking of getting some kind of usb expansion card, should I get more usb 3.1 or get usb c, which I currently don’t have any
...I have a lot of stuff plugged into my pc
That and it just didn’t come with a ton of ports
I can put two more USB 3.2 ports on the front, I think at least
It was intended for 2.0 but I think 3,2 would fit
@hybrid ether You could just get external USB hub
I mean yeah, but when I was building it I accidentally removed one too many of the little metal tabs that you take off for the pcie stuff
And usb expansion cards are really not expensive
Oooooh- yeah, OCD about it eh ? I have nothing that uses the c either
Neither do I, but I don’t know much of anything about USB ports
So,I’d prob just go 3.2
So I figured someone here might
I have yet to see any hardware that needed anything other than 3.2
But I don’t have all the newest stuff either
Hey can someone help me. What part I should choose for ryzen 5 3600 build

@topaz hinge yes the SSD and PSU choice for for ya

https://pcpartpicker.com/product/7gxbt6/msi-b550-a-pro-atx-am4-motherboard-b550-a-pro do you think this is one of the best b550 boards @stoic island @foggy hazel
@rustic sandal at a scale 1-10 how good is the build. just asking i dont want to sound rude.
@rustic sandal oh and the case is my choice?
https://www.target.com/p/hp-16-a0035nr-16-1-34-pavilion-gaming-laptop-intel-core-i5-10300h-nvidia-geforce-gtx1650ti/-/A-80269668?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google&fndsrc=tmnv&DFA=71700000073474853&CPNG=PLA_DVM%2B0060H00000uI2V1QAK-TechGiftHQ_HolidayFY20_GoogleSearchFlight_AO&adgroup=PLA_TechGiftHQ&LID=700000001393753pgs&network=g&device=m&location=9012657&gclid=CjwKCAjw_sn8BRBrEiwAnUGJDiOddeIvjgO69ZsoUnXhwlcueQ_gtwJrTfcdGifCtAq0fuiPHmt6uRoCIOsQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds someone I know is selling this exact laptop for $500. Worth?
@heady current for $2k, that’s the best of the best. Except for the new cpu launch, but same price point better performance, they just aren’t out yet
Hmm, I’m trying to decide. It’s someone we know who’s been quarantined and hasn’t gotten paid that’s selling it, so I don’t want to bargain the price, if it’s worth $500 I’ll just give him $500
But I’m just not sure how good it is as a whole
@languid nimbus since when is a 1650ti a thing
Good question
Isn’t there only 1650 supers
rood
But it looks good for $700, especially 500
I guess 1650ti is only a laptop thing?
b550 velocita
bruh my mother paid $800 bucks for sum macbook air, im pretty sure at 800 bucks thats a good deal, especially if a friend is selling you it for 500 @languid nimbus
Yeah, it’ll be for my wife. She’s got a MacBook rn but it’s kinda garbage. Seems like every MacBook she’s ever had has crapped the bed within a year or so lol
Is it a good b550 budget board yes
Thanks guys!
Ok
Somehow, the max-q ti is worse than the 1650 mobile...? @languid nimbus

Welp
@stoic island Wtf i just looked at the review 4.9/5
@little leaf 8gbs on an rx 580
I think I found my problem from last night though where I was crashing
My page file was set to 0
mbs
Anyone have a $700 usd list? My friend thinking of buying a prebuilt for that price and I want to compare the 2 and show him building is better
@little osprey I can make one rq
oh wait I have one chillin
right here
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/zDXWXb
@inland parrot is there any particular reason you randomly ping Techies?
@stoic island alright thanks
Crap sorry I keep forgetting $1050 USD @little osprey
quick question. is there a definitive date for the 3070 release that we know of?
im building a friend a pc. 1650 s or 1660? does that 2gbs of vram matter enough
@edgy wagon passmark answers your questions.
https://www.videocardbenchmark.net/compare/GeForce-GTX-1650-SUPER-vs-GeForce-GTX-1660/4167vs4062
@edgy wagon reviews.
@stoic island can I change the mobo to the msi wifi one because unfortunately he needs wifi not close to router
yea sure
Thanks I appreciate it
:)
also @edgy wagon, dont adjust settings you dont know the meaning of
The prebuilt he was buying had no ssd 
@rustic sandal oh and do i need extra cables, fans, etc
Hey need some recommendations, should I upgrade my 5820k to a 9900k with a new mobo, or upgrade my 1660Ti to a 3070?
You’d probably need to upgrade both, I can’t Imagine there wouldn’t be a bottleneck if you only upgraded one of them
yeah I'm going to be upgrading them both eventually but rn can only upgrade one or the other
@pliant vapor my advice would be this: wait for the reviews on the 3070, someone will be doing some "old cpu" testing at that point too. It will give us an idea about how it performs.
My new pc build is going to take 598 watts according to new eggs thing, so what wattage psu should I get, I really don’t think I’ll be upgrading this thing for a long time after building it so I don’t think I need much room for higher wattage parts
link the build @little osprey
Mhm
Hold on I don’t have it on pc part picker yet
Ok
I’m on my phone rn sorry about the inconvenience
But yea, I haven’t put the gpu on the cart yet but it will be a 3080
Most likely
Thats a sick pc bro
I am very excited to build it, thanks
i would STRONGLY suggest you go pcpp for that
I’m ordering on the 29th or around there
because some of the prices are ... "interesting" :)
and you will end up in the 750 watt range for PSU need.
Phantek AMP 750 comes to mind as a solution for you
That’s what I was thinking but wanted to make sure I don’t overspend
its about 115 usd
Hi, I am new here and I am in need of help to know if my part list is good
post your list
-Ryzen 7 2700x
-Gigabyte B450M DS3H MATX
-Team T-Force Vulcan Z 16GB (2x8gb)

-MSI GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB VENTUS XS OC
-Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L
-EVGA BR 500 W 80+ Bronze

Use pcpartpicker.com please :)
@vapid igloo what is the budget on that?
$1k 😎
is that with the monitor?
With, monitor, keyboard, and mic
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ <- please input all of it here
and then we can have a chat about it
I'm gonna slap my 800$ list here for consideration, and can slap a monitor in.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/mXNYTJ
I finally found a 2070 for my list that isn't 600+ rn
Nice
Oh ok
@vapid igloo
do note the following
that list completely removes the HDD
only a ssd there
simply to make room for more interesting parts in the original build
and adding a HDD is a 2-3 minute job later
ill check it out
@foggy hazel, do you think a 1660 S is enough though. I dont wanna play games that require a really strong PC, I mainly wanna play on FiveM, PUBG, Crossout, and maybe some Minecraft
1660 S should be plenty for that
but i am NOT that knowledgeable about those
so i would recommend having a look around at some reviews on how that card performs in those games :)
Oh ok, thanks 🙂
FiveM is prob the most intensive out of all of them
Crossout and Minecraft is fairly weak
PUBG afaik kinda mid end in terms of graphics
you are very welcome and best of luck @vapid igloo
If I were to get the laptop I’d mentioned earlier in this chat and purchased a m.2, is it as simple as just tossing it in? Or is it different for laptops?
As in, it’s incredibly simple on desktop, but unsure on laptops
depends on the laptop
but it can be as easy as just removing 2 screws and sliding the m.2 into the slot. screwing that in, putting the cover for that access port back, screwing that in. and done.

Gaming? Resolution? Settings? Other application use? Streaming? Engineering? Video editing?
Are you willing to wait?

Hey guys, I have to build a PC for my friend for 500 euros, can anyone give me some specs to work with? (Parts can be used)
It’s gaming oriented
@little osprey what region
Malta, EU
Sorry if my username is hard to ping but once I get to the point when I can change my nickname on the server I’m gonna change it
Cause I’m not sure if it’s against the rules to have a username with a weird font
So I'm trying to build a pc for my friend too. Though he wants it to be at the budget of $1k. I had made a list, but not sure if it's guud. Can anyone see if this is alr so far?
I didn't put a gpu in it, since I'm struggling trying to find one
ill help
u said his budget is 1k?
So I'm trying to build a pc for my friend too. Though he wants it to be at the budget of $1k. I had made a list, but not sure if it's guud. Can anyone see if this is alr so far?
@vagrant gulch
yea
k gimme a bit
Alright thanks
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wxyXPV here's a 1k list for reference, @stoic island has a much better one whenever he gets back around to this channel (sorry for the ping)
is it for gamming or like productivity
Oh right keep forgetting to mention that. It's for gaming.
ok
Thanks for the reference
MOTHERBOARD: MSI Pro Series X299 RAIDER ATX w/ RGB, USB 3.1, 4 PCIe x16, 2 PCIe x1, 8 SATA3, 2 M.2 SATA/PCIe [Intel Optane Ready]
Where can I get one.
Thanks for the reference
@vagrant gulch https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4N3TTC here i kinda streched the budget so ya, also if u wanted to save a couple bucks u can change the case and ram (for ram just get somthing without rgb for cheaper)
or get a boot drive and hdd
yea u can do that 2
True, I thought I had added like a 250 gb ssd and a 2tb for him on my list
i just put that one m.2 so its easier to install
Ah gotcha, thanks again.
1660ti is kind of bad value and you can get much better with a thousand, b550 is the same price and a lot of good boards are cheaper than that one, should get 3600 cl16 ram for ryzen 3000, nzxt h510 is overrated and you can get many better options at that price point, etc
sorry i had to nitpick a little lol
lol
It seems like some of the nvidia gpus are out of stock or the price is up more than the original
Reason: Duplicated text
yeah that's normal
i wouldn't buy any new 20 series gpu as you can get much better from the 30 series for most price points
and amd is announcing their gpus in 5 days iirc
Yea I kept trying to let him know to wait tbh
Even warned him because of how I built mines in May. At least I didn't get any 20 series and gotten a rx 580 and somewhut cheap
for a budget build
for how much?
I got a 1600AF
He is on a 500 budget i think
^
Alright, further any mobos recommendations?
What components are good for a 1300 build
Like a 3080 gpu
yes
Damn
Go amd tho
That’s what I plan to do
So u can upgrade in the future
Any good fans with rgb that you know
can just get a case with come preinstalled and add an exhaust one
i'll make a quick list that can be changed and nitpicked by whoever thinks money can be put in better places
On just the pc I plan to spend about 1400
My Pc specs
Chassis: toshiba S75-b
CPU:
Core I7 4710hq
Gpu: Igpu (had 4600)
Ram: 16gb of Samsung OEM ram.
Storage: 1tb dying hdd
Display: 17 inch 1600X900 display (yes 17 inch).
This thing is crap and it crashes
Price: 0$
usd?
Yes
oh that's an easy 3080 build
I’d go for that one silver stone tower or the new in win but aye, your choice
oh that's a few dollars more for a wifi mobo
it doesnt show up for me on pcpp though
its like 15 more
msi b550m pro-vdh wifi
yeah
Get the new in-win case (I forgot what its called)
can switch it to a 1tb ssd or add a 2tb hdd
or storage
1 tb is good ssd
i'd just get a 1tb mp34 i'll switch it
Okay sounds good
The 3080 build is good for me
I’m doesn’t have that much lighting but I can add a led strip to it
pretty sure the gpu i put has a little rgb, plus i can add rgb ram to the list for a little more, and lighting strips are cheap
O can deal with the lighting
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/6YMXPV this is w rgb ram
I and focused on performance rn
The ssd is good I found a 1 tb Samsung for 10 dollars cheaper
But thanks for your help
these came in today going to be ordering more parts in the next few weeks for my new build. Very hyped
i9 9900k?
Yep!
Hey
What price did you get it at
It's jsut hard getting money at the moment so I order parts whenever I have the money
uhhh what do you mean ?
Can someone make me a ryzen 5 360l list plz
I didnt buy the cpu yet
Oh
I only have the case and the mobo
Ok
Help
im buying part by part when i have money
Hey man I only have 400 dollars saved up but I want to buy everything together
Ok
And for next gen gpu
yeah true wait for ryzen 5000
But what other parts should I get
depends on budget too
Just gaming or gaming and streaming
Both
Ok
And gaming
Wait for 5000 series and new gpu
What new gpu
Or at least new gpu
Ok
can't make a list rn since they arent available in the part pickers yet im pretty sure
they are ??
Yes
oh I didn't know
I had a friend
Only the 3080 is available
you can always just add a custom part
true
nothing new about that
Plz
Like
dam I see the prices and then I remember its in usd
Psu’s are so expensive holy crap
true
@stable smelt stupidly expensive
Im not going cheap either for my psu cuz you just can't go cheap on those<
Nope
Im getting like 750w 80+ gold
750 is like 70$ for a bronze and 100 for a gold
im in canada so in cad its like 150 for the psu im getting
bronze psus are usually nice in lower budgets
Gold is better
@stable smelt and none of what you said there actually matter
like evga brs
the efficiency mark does not tell you anything about the actual PSU model
there are piles of crap that are Gold marked
Hey dwells
For like a name brand one gold is mostly better
I want 1tb of m.2
@wild briar I don't think you should go with 1tb m.2 in a budget build
Why?
.....
kinda dips into budget
much as i like Seasonic psu's they make some really bad models too.
Naed would you say Corsair RM's are a good model ?
2 m.2s iirc
depends on the specific model @vagrant bone
What’s better Corsair or evga psu
depends on model
brand doesnt mean anything
Does antec still make psu’s?
Or should I get the thermal take
Don’t buy that
The black version not white
Please
Should I but thermal than
Either way
bro wtf is dat case
Should I buy thermal take
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/YXZXPV look at my totally (shit? worth future build
depends what you wanna do with that pc @runic bison
@vagrant bone that is a okay model
gaming
alright thanks man
GUYS WHAT CASE SHOULD I BUY PLZ
what's ya budget for case
Like 100
@stable smelt re: antec: yes. but most are bad
Buy that one silver stone or new in-win airflow case
Or 150
Mmm ok
what's your budget overall again?
@wild briar calm down and stop yelling.
1000
for 1000 i would stray away from a 150 case budget
yeah
and even a $100 case eats into other parts quite a bit
Ok than 100?
75 bucks
Than idk
Max
highest i would go for that is like a corsair 4000d airflow
Dlm21 airflow
Thermal take?
which is 80
Silverstone airflow tower (forgot the name)
meshify c is also nice and can sometimes be found around 80
if anyone can check the pcpart link i send and tell me what to improve on pls do tell, my budgets at like 500-600 cause money is hard
Wait for new gpus
Guys on cyber Monday are pc parts on sale?
Sometimes
Ok
And black Friday
sometimes
So what case
when is black fri
Hey @foggy hazel so someone contacted me and i need some help to figure out if this motherboard is now dead he said the pin fell off when he hit it upgrading his ram and now it’s not displaying
The issue is I’m not there 😂 and the peeps don’t have one
oof
I’m more than likely gonna do a motherbaord replacement
Wait what do you mean
That’s near the dimm slots
read :)
I’ll contact them it’s starting to make sense e
Shenzhen Angxun Technology Co., Ltd., since the year of 2006, has been focusing on the use of INTEL chips for 13 yea. It develops and sells high-tech enterprises that sell computer motherboards. The products include desktop, all-in-one and industrial-controlled motherboards. T...
that is the board
do you recognize that connector now?
Wrong thing
This is what he said I’ll look for the vid but yeah it’s the front pañal but it doesn’t boot
Post*
@wary geode read what i said above
its a connector that goes to the front of the case
also known as a front panel connector
it is NOT fpanel
Lol what’s the difference between them give me a minute to read and take this in
Yea I got it I think I know what happened
now, tell me what is the MAIN difference between that picture and what the person you are talking with sent?
It didn’t have the Sheild I belive that’s all I see
Somewhere it feel off 😂
Yeah I’m heavily confused on wtf they did
I have to get a clear picture from them what happened because I don’t know this person they are someone who contacted me to do a motherbaord replacement
I get it dang
its just a usb FRONT PANEL connector
Just didn’t recognize because I’m blind
:)
his case doesn’t even have usb 3.0 he said 😂
never trust the client @wary geode
Ok makes sense
hence why the first thing i did was lookup the mainboard model
based on the x7-v124 i could see in your picture
Also that issue on the dram and cpu switching back and forth we couldn’t figure out and they broke my cpu and now shipping it back broken like wtf am I suppose to do
you are supposed to tell them to go hump a cactus
Yeah good thinking sorry for being sluggish should’ve noticed
I wish 😦
But I’d get banned off the app and that’s the thing I sold on
well
I will be confronting them on rushing into it
Because they also plugged the hdmi to the motherbaord 😦
So I’m not sure if that fried it
Yea I understand thanks naed for all your help I know I’m always a handful but you help and you really help people
Your a very nice person taking time to help other people and it doesn’t go unnoticed
Thanks
you are very welcome, and best of luck.
and i cannot stress this enough. LET THEM TALK.
Ok thanks 🙂 I really love how you take all issues and try your best your like a trouble shooting role model for me wish I can know as much as you some day
Now you have a great day and thanks so much 
:)
Hey,
Is everything fine with the below, anything I might have overlooked or is sub-optimal?
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/rpJgwz
Notes:
Used for - 1080p Gaming/Video editing on Davinci Resolve
Overclocking? - No
Have to use WiFi? - Yes
Also, I wont be upgrading this, so see no need for a B550. I'll just build from scratch in 4 years time.
System Builder
you can save money by going b550 with wifi on the mainboard @little osprey
and if memory serves, that ssd is not all that good
@foggy hazel can you link one
Ssd pricing feels... Off
UK
Sx8200 pro 110 gbp @foggy hazel that's why it felt off, GBP pricing tends to be at or below USD pricing.
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/zR3H99/
I bought mine without realizing it didn't have a disc drive, so my solution was this
@little osprey why not
Interesting setup
nice call @stoic island
:)
@stoic island Prebuilt?
Pcpp still being dumb and not displaying a good amount of parts
@little osprey hell no
LMAOO
There's only one that I've seen that's decent
I have 10 active mobos around the house and a friend suggested I get a server rack and daisy train them all 😅
Lemme see if it's still on sale
I would build one, but i don’t wanna wait for parts kinda impatient
This is actually good specs for the price
@little osprey bro you would wait for parts the same way you would wait for the prebuilt smh
@stoic island if i buy it all at once it comes in at one time?
Depends on the seller, if you bought everything from the same place, yea
Amazon?
The one I most actively use has
- Ryzen 1600
- Nvidia 1050 TI
- 32GB RAM
- 2TB HDD
a friend sent me this build lol idk if it’s good
1600af or ae
@little osprey I would tell your friend to use pcpartpicker.com and not share stuff that way lmao
panik because I don't remember
And from the looks of it having a NZXT H510, no.
Hey that's the HDD that my pc has 🤣🤣
Prob ae then, considering 1050ti timing
What’s worth buying from that video then?
The 1050ti was the backup card bc the Sapphire RX 580 came faulty
Pcpartpicker got it
Pricings all screwed up nowadays
And tbh
You could get that 700$ prebuilt if you didn't want the trouble
Because that's actually good value for now
i watched those YT videos that are like “900$ Budget Gaming Pc build”
I'm also lazy and don't want to go through the "wait for 3070 you can fit it in a 1000$ list" thing
What about no
Because by the time you watch any of the videos, the pricing is all out of wack compared to what they say :p
3600 was 160-170$ just a few weeks ago
Doesn't go under 200$ now
i don’t wanna sound like a loser but as soon as i get a pc i’m hooking in the controller
before i snap the key board in half
Does everything look alright I still need the gpu and I’m installing the psu rn
if my 1 of my cpu cooler fans was around 1cm away from my rear exhaust fan, should I even have that cpu cooler fan?
Does everything look alright I still need the gpu and I’m installing the psu rn
@sturdy leaf everything looks right.
choosing a Radeon RX 5700 XT, which one models are the good @stoic island @foggy hazel
this is my build https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ZJtWDc
How should I arrange my storage? Currently have an NVMe 256gb m.2 and a 1tb sata, should I change it or keep it like that?
If I bought my windows USB and decided to upgrade my boot drive to one of higher storage could I just plug it back in and install it the same way I did the original or would it require you to buy a new USB?
@twilit salmon normally you can use the same
Alright cool thanks!
your are welcome :)
question, the b550 a pro motherboard good for gaming and streaming
Question i just barley put a m.2 into my pc how do i put my windows on there#l
Yeah I have to find a new motherboard that supports Ryzen 3 3100 AM4 and DDR4 Ram can anyone help please
I'm building a pc this weekend and I wanted to take the hard drives from my old HP pc and put it in my new pc? It has windows 10 will that work?
@cosmic copper Yes, I'm pretty sure that would work

these are some I recommend (don't worry about the price its cuz im in canada so just go to us retailer if ur in us )
here you go let me know if you need any other help
Crucial Ballistics 16 GB 2x8
AMD Ryzen 3 3100
GTX 2060 super
Team Group MP34 M.2 512GB
EVGA 100-BR-0600w 80pluse that’s my specs though.
I had a MSI PRO VDH-WIFI AM4 and it has a problem when you load the windows 10 download to select what windows version and boom it constantly restarts
oh.
That just means you arent doing the first boot properly. You can probably type in whatever motherboard you have and search how to first boot windows 10
Oh no I have someone who has been building PCs since 2010 he knows what to do he’s tried everything. A lot of reviews on the board on Newegg says the same thing
Oh, alright then sorry about that well I strongly suggest getting the https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product/XQgzK8/asus-rog-strix-b450-f-gaming-atx-am4-motherboard-strix-b450-f-gaming not only does it have great reviews all-around but also looks great in any build
Alright I’ll look into it and thank you. This is Fr my first Pc and I’ve had parts now for over 3 weeks and kinda got sad when I was told that I need a new motherboard. Have to wait till November just to buy one though sadly
aren't you able to send back your current motherboard and get a refund ?
I can send it back we are doing that in the morning I hope they will allow to give me my money back
They for sure should give you your money back or else I feel bad but yeah. I'm also slowly buying parts for a pc build
They better lmao it’s not that I don’t have a problem paying it’s just like yo I bought this and it’s just constantly restarting. But like I said I’d have to wait till November to buy a newer one and it sucks to just wait even longer been wanting to buy it for a month now and I did then this happens
alright well good luck with that and have fun with your pc once its up and running !
I hope so
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/R2cNQD Hey does anyone know what would be a good cooler in this build ? not looking for something extremely expensive either

@vagrant bone

One
If needed go for the 280
oof a bit too expensive
gamign and streaming
And anime
Yeah im gonna use the blue snowball until I can get like an at2020 but for now blue snowball will do
Cooler Master MasterLiquid LC240E RGB Close-Loop AIO CPU Liquid Cooler, 240mm Radiator, Dual Chamber RGB Pump, Dual MF120R RGB Fans, RGB Lighting for AMD Ryzen/Intel LGA1200/1151 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07CRGC899/ref=cm_sw_r_u_apa_i_9r5KFb1E76XBG
How bout this?
Planning on overclocking at all?
Oh and btw do you think rtx 2000 series are gonna drop prices ?
@vagrant bone which motherbaord do you want me to link to you
question, the b550 a pro motherboard good for gaming and streaming
@inland parrot
you asked this
which motherboard exactly
and your streaming and gaming performance also depends from what cpu and gpu you have
Now my 2060 super might be bad 😅 imma go insane
I mean ya am4 thats gonna be good depending what processor you get
ryzen is great for streaming
assuming you are getting a ryzen cpu that is....
Yeah i was planning on waiting for the new ryzen 5000 series then getting the Rt 5700xt
yeah I suggest waiting for the 5000 series
But someone said that i should wait
Amd has a 6000 now for gpu and getting lunched next week
personally not a fan of amd gpu's but go for it if you have the money
Becsue i dont want to get an expensive gpu but get the same graphics expirence that were on a cheaper gpu
I would have just wasted money
And I want the one that has the highest screen resolutions that is at a reasonable price, which tbh i will not find
List of B550 motherboarads for both gaming and streaming and can take the very powerful, cpus, ram, psu gpus,etc
and @inland parrot if you are going like 3950x and 3090 you may go towards x570
x570 will have more features for very high end setups
true
and dizzy price drop on 2000 series isnt likely
because they have completely stopped making them
they are almost hard to find
new ones
for msrp
but used market could be decent
ummm from 2000 series I meant like rtx 2070s and all that
thats what im saying
oh
they dont make them anymore
they stopped making them ?
yeah
oh rip
cause they are focused on 3000 rn
oh alright
yeah but it will in a bit im guessing
If you have the time can someone help me?
Im trying to find a build or a prebuilt on a budget of 800 dollars that can run vr
Oculus link
Yeah
ok'
you wouldnt build pc?
ok
Becuase build fees and all that extra crap
The min specs are in this website ima get it in a sec
cant post links until lvl 3
im boutta be outta data
Literally only sites with normal priced 2060 super are B&H and Office Depot, which should I buy off?
that'd be out of my budget either way
And I need to build soon since this laptop suddenly lost a lot of power and can barely run discord and chrome at the same time
try updating windows
who knows
Im going to buy this since its amazing and its in my budget
the box is open
But they're reselling it
Is windows expensive
I wish i could have
but if it's another 5 days away
wait to make a final decision
maybe other things go on sale
Ok i will and ill make sure to come here
The thing is
I just want a prebuilt thats good for fps gaming I dont run any hard titles
thE hardest game ill run is rainbow six
How come some stuff for windows 10 is 100$+ and others is like 20$
@fleet pagoda windows is technically free, but if you want to activate it, you can get a key online for $10-20
because that's the OEM price from microsoft
but there are bulk key resellers who sell the keys for much cheaper
Linux is free
But much less user friendly than windows
And not everything is supported by linux yet
Doesnt windows take hours to install
using a usb 3.0 device to install to an SSD, it takes like 10 mins max
Ye depends on how fast the drive is you're putting it on
with just a generic usb flash drive it wont take long to download
lol windows takes like 4 minutes on modern m.2
the setup portion takes longer than the install
@devout field can I ask you a question bout the pc you plan to build?
@wild briar https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Y9sP3Z
its a little over budget but i thought i might squeeze as much perf as i can with the budget
also
for 5600x i just put in a 3600 and changed the price to $299.99 bc its not on part picker yet
@uncut pelican Yes of course
Can someone help me? I have looked been looking for a good pc for a while now but i can not find a good one. I can do a build or a prebuilt i just need some help. I will be running a vr on it just look up Oculus Link Combatibility.
@devout field what do you plan on with this pc
playing games, a few companies business
@uncut pelican
@uncut pelican are you there?
...
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tVhdXb is this good
you need to get cl16 ram
overpriceed ssd
same could b said bout the cooler you could even go with a kraken for cheaper
also a 3700x is kinda eh when 5000 release is right around the corner
and AMD plans on having stock 😉
honestly, you don't need a cooler if you won't be overclocking
My friend needs extra disk space what do I recommend him
@uncut pelican warzone , ets 2 , fh 4 , valorant , lol .. ..
@devout field do you plan to watercool your build?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hXYhy4 good? the gpu isn't usally that high
sorry i forgot to add that thxs
Also idk if ur psu is good, dont know any others tho
Ask @stoic island or @foggy hazel
Mhm ask other ppl about ur psu
@devout field do you plan to watercool your build?
@slim zealot 👍
im pretty sure @stoic island helped me with this part list
Your spending 900 dollars?
bap
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3zxNQD do you guys think this is a good build for a $1250 usd budget
I would go with the v2 of that
Nice and it’s cheaper too so I guess I was blind when I selected the parts
Also i was wondering if i have an upgrade path later down the line
Is the 450w psu limiting?
@pliant vapor btw I don't know why it lists the 9700k as 219 there because it's around 280 everywhere you buy it
It’s for 219 at Microcenter
^
Oh gotcha
What gpu should i get for under 500 bucks that isnt a 30 series
Any others besides 30 series
Yes
2070 super ? its exactly 500 bucks lol
Wait for radeon 6000 cards
No
Dont buy 2070 super with all these new cards out coming out
Well ima try buying a 3070 but this will be my plan b if i dont get it
I wish nvidia would lower 2080ti prices
^
Hi guys where I can find 8+8+8 Pcie cables like cablemod in canada for my 3080 FTW3 ?
In white
should i buy the be quiet straight power 11 750w 80+ platinum for the msi rtx 3080 gaming x trio and i9 10850k
Can some one help me
@little osprey what price?
I don’t know what that means I am planning to use a ryzen 5 3600 with a Gigabyte b450 Arous pro wifi AM4
I'd also get something like this @little osprey
https://www.newegg.com/enermax-80-plus-erf650awt-850w/p/1HU-0042-000R0
@covert pewter how about you send the link to the list and we'll edit it from there?
Okay
@stoic island Okay bro
use this link to share
I'm going to make some preliminary edits
Okay
i think there are no problems. but one could be the motherboard. that means you have to look into the mobo manuals to see if it is compatible with ryzen 3000
It says it’s AM4
yeah am4 is also ryzen 2000
Well, more price-performance things
Preliminary edits:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/wGnKBc
I might need to use a zen 2600
yeah the msi is a good pick
but the b450 tomahawk max is a better choice for future and specs
and with the tomahawk max you get ryzen 3000 compatibility out of the box
for 10$ more
Well thanks I have been wondering this for a while now
you're welcome bro
I'm back
@little osprey nah
One thing B550 has over B450 is pcie gen 4 support
And guaranteed immediate Zen 3 support.
And has wifi
yeah youre right
which b550 mobo is good
To start off, the Ram, 3600mhz cl16 is optimal for Ryzen, a decent performance gain over 3200mhz cl16
For the SSD, TLC NVMe drive with dram for like 2$ more, why not?
Instead of a QLC SATA drive
Power supply wise, EVGA B5 is decent, but Phanteks amp is just better, so yea.
You can shave the money off if your budget requires and go back to a b5
@covert pewter and a major point for your performance, when are you building? Because RTX 3070 launch is just around the corner.
here in germany the part prices are sooo different
