@slim escarp you can get away with a 450 watt CX
iirc, the h210 uses normal atx psu, but let me just check
yes it supports ATX psu's
Should I buy my cpu now or wait to Black Friday and hope I get it before it’s out of stock
what cpu?
Ryzen 3 3100
when are you buying rest of pc?
Christmas
id wait
you dont want to piece buy opc
becuz if something is DOA you may not know
until its out of 30 day return period
Yeah your right
If you have a setup to test certain parts with, you could buy piece by piece
Say, you have a computer you could test a psu with, swap out the current psu for a bit, ez
But that is not the case iirc
is https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qYbP3Z a good build?
i did some things to it based on what i know @trim grove https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xWdhy4
oh wait
thank you!
uhhh i dont know much about monitors, keyboards and mice
oh ok
assuming your budget is 1k for the pc alone, i think its a pretty solid build overall
ty
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HdPpGq is this a good pc for fortnite ?
What would be better 1 240 and 1 480 ssd or 1 240gb ssd and 1 1tb hdd
@little osprey haha

I already have 1 240 ssd that is why I ask
maybe a 1tb hdd
Idk maybe just put your demanding games on the ssd
and your windows ofc lol
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HdPpGq is this a good pc for fortnite ?
@little osprey uhhh....
funny
Ok
you have a thread ripper with a710 thatll bottle kneck HUGELY
you dont need 6000 pc to play fortnite
^
is it good
no
why
not at all
youtube said it will run
you need at the very max a 2000 dollar build to get 360 fps
troll somewhere else
no
cherrry you are fine lmao
i need fortnite pc
you dont need crazy speccs
i need 100fps
for warzone
fortnite pc is not nearly 6000
ok dont spend 3k on a cpu spend more on gpu cos u have 910
for fortnite
Wait. My specs are
I7 4770
16gb ddr3 ram
512gb ssd
8gb rx 570 graphics card.
Total $400
should run warzone fine
Good for warzone with discord and streaming?
Wait. My specs are
I7 4770
16gb ddr3 ram
512gb ssd
8gb rx 570 graphics card.
Total $400
@sand needle thats good enough to play it at ultra
high fps is 6000$
Good for warzone with discord and streaming?
@sand needle yes
guys jon is a troll
Ok thanks guys
there's no way he's legit
just ignore it
already blocked him
a 3100 and a rx580 would be good with fortnite @little osprey
no i need fortnite pc
Good for warzone with discord and streaming?
@sand needle i dont think you will be able to stream
idk tho
he will
lmao what a troll
gpu is for fps
you're overdoing it
also my parents are rich so
i hope you never get a computer
who cares
bruhhh
i already blocked him
its just 6000$
just block hhim lmfoa
Some guy was using those specs on HIGH ASS GRAPHICS WITH MOTION BLUR and not one frame dropped below 60fps
@little osprey if youre bored go do something productive instead of being here
@celest horizon please warn/kick this troll
Some guy was using those specs on HIGH ASS GRAPHICS WITH MOTION BLUR and not one frame dropped below 60fps
@sand needle i use absolute ultra with no motion blur and 70FPS is my average
so yes
you are fine
that's fine
meanwhile i run warzone on low and don't even get 60
yeah
you'll get above 60 no matter what
^
you'll get above 60 no matter what
@vague maple depends on settings and game
I heard that fortnite is hard to run I mean how else would consoles do it? they are super powerful
I heard that fortnite is hard to run I mean how else would consoles do it? they are super powerful
@little osprey just leave
I might actually get the new chromebook its only 3,000$
jon I suggest the fortnite community discord
@vague maple depends on settings and game
@trim grove talking about warzone
No fortnite sucks
oh ok @vague maple
Why would i do that
bruhh
but still
can a mod please remove this guy ffs
jon i suggest going to the minecraft server if youre gonna say fortnite sucks
i agree
yeah hes annoying
the 570 can do any game at 60fps 1080p with adjusting some settings
sorry i just need help with my build and nobody helps me
i have a 4gb model
its only 6,000$ pretty cheap
and it plows through games
because you're a troll goddamit jon
i was gonna go 17,000
don't feed into it
WHERE ARE YOU
ok
^^^^
don't tag mods they don't care

What*
help me please
he's a troll seppuku
I dont know about pcs
He doesnt need help?
no he's a straight up troll
they sent this list https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HdPpGq
@toxic widget evga b stock has a 600w w1 psu for only 35$ i would recommend
he made a build with a 3990X threaripper and a gt710
im no english sorry
i would buy 1 rn
I see
https://www.evga.com/products/productlist.aspx?type=8 @toxic widget
where are the mods on this server?
Aight imma block him
scroll down a bit youll see it
Thank you @wheat coral
either of the underlined units will work
Thank you @wheat coral
@toxic widget no problem man
i would get the 50$ one
if i were you
Anyone actually needs help?
but the 35$ is fine
i think sloth needed help
Anyone actually needs help?
@woeful phoenix nah im here to help
same here
so i made this list for sloth, his budget for the pc seems to be 1k, any ideas on how i might get more performance? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/J8qZRT
yeah its what i was thinking
yes
@balmy patio I have already made you a 1k list
yeah you have
@balmy patio i really dislike the brand model choices, no rgb theme for a windowed case
Which is still better than the list you linked
frick
who cares about rgb lmfao
The 5700xt is a better gpu
yes
eh i mean he can buy rgb strips
i would get a 5700xt tho

joesr
the psu is overpriced
they didnt get it :(
the psu is overpriced
@vague maple no its not lmfoa
5700xt is for 409 the msi version which is pretty good in thermals and power
lol what
Mg suggestions for the list get a neo eco gold for saving money go to 1tb ssd only b550 pro vdh wifi
if ya aint got a 3070 or rx 5700 xt in a 1k build i aint want it
^
Lmao
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/qcKtgt you can get a 650w 80+ plus psu that's fully modular for like 6 dollars less
forgive me for saying it's overpriced
Psu mobo cpu and ram can be for about 460 then 3070 for 499 and up something for the case
i forgot psu prices rose so much
you can build a 1000 dollar build with a 3070
but you'll have to cut some pretty big corners
Not really
not necessarily
really?
i mean with a mATX build, yeah you don't have to
i mean you only have 512 gigs of storage in that build, i get that you can upgrade storage down the line pretty easily
i'll keep that in mind
I mean something like b450 tomahawk max for abt a hundie, ram abt 65 16gb 3600, cpu 3600 for 200 or less psu for abt 100 + 499 3070
Get a case for about 80 like the p400a digital
And you gucci
B450 tomahawk is a bad board
Sure
no it isnt
Overpriced
lmao
Not worth it
ok
You can get a better board
Reason: Bad word usage
Okay buddy
i mean you gotta remember that the rtx 3070 is almost impossible to get for msrp rn
I said shizzle
LMAO actually?
😔
but dwellas build cuts some corners in storage and psus
so
that's what i'm talking about
upgrade the budget by 200 dollars, and that's when you get a really good value build
I would take it for that much for gpu power loo
Yes
I would take it for that much for gpu power loo
@little leaf that's true
Imo if youre building a pc, get as much money as you need to build it right lmao
Reason: Bad word usage
lmao
is a 600w psu enough for a 3070?
isn't the recommended psu like a 650 80+ gold unit?
I doubt they said gold rating
600 is fine
true
Its hard to get a gf
600 is fine
@vital warren you sure?
my brother got one from best buy first time he tried to get one
Yes
what about the wattage spikes
Its fine
alright then
Ive got to check out with 5+ 3080s
guys i found an apevia psu that's 800w 80+ gold for 66 dollars
good or no?
it's not modular btw
seems to be low on psu tier list
one model of apevia is tier c, other one is d, which is for very low end systems
i usually tend to steer clear when i hear apevia
there's a psu tier list?
but that's just me

ty
np
that is quite detailed jesus
Yeah, it’s in depth. It’s useful though (:
mhmm
If you only have the mobo cpu and psu can you check if everything works
if the cpu is a igpu then i dont see why not
you need the ram as well
and the cooler otherwise your cpu will fry
Lol cpu comes with cooler
And it wouldnt fry without cooler
They throttle so they dont get damaged lmao
Stock cooler is sufficient for non overclocking
If you plan on doing that though, stock will not be enough
Yup
why are you buying a microatx motherboard for that much
if you're building a microatx build, get a microatx case, if you're buying a microatx mobo to save money, at that price there are multiple atx boards that are b550 lmao
that ram is also heavily overpriced, 93 dollars for 3000 MHz?
And I don't think a 550 watt psu is enough for a 2070
the storage is also too little, let me just make you a build
oh wait it's australian dollars
my bad
your build is fine, try and upgrade the psu and get a bigger storage, but i can't see anything else wrong with that build
bruh u tryna blow up ur 2070? get atleast 600w
Any thoughts on a i7 6700k and gtx 1080 with 32 gb ram?
i got a copleted pc built from a friend and its 1-2 yo
for 700 dollars, good deal?
depends on the state of the parts but that's a pretty decent budget build
it has 3 roshair 120 rgb fans with one 240mm i100H water cooler and everything is in good state
what the hell you talking about
@vague maple @dim nymph you know the pcpp power calculator exists for a reason right
and you know that only pulls around 350w right
how the hell is a 550w PSU not enough?
That's even above the reference RTX2070 TDP of 160w.
cpu
if its intel yeah
look at the picture again please.
why get a RTX 2070 non super
Hey Demonmit
thats the real question
Eh, I have problems with the list, but I'm too lazy to fix it right now
I just want to fix the PSU wattage misconception first
@arctic jungle I compel you to edit the list
:D
scroll up for the man
🙃
by the way 2070 super aud prices were good when I saw it last
it was like 620aud for 2070 super
Don't do the conversions
Look at part prices
Don't try to get good equivalent in USD, because regional market is regional
i'd do that
b tier unit, 2070 super, better case
R5 3600 is not worth $90 more than a 10400
that price is stupid
get higher FPS with a 10400 / 2070 super
than a 3600 / 2070
can tweak the ram to be 2666 CL13
be under 10ns
Wait wut b460 mb?
not bad at all
non K sku, dont need an overclocking board
budget was 1500 tho right?
🤷
price on the other list was $1430
so i stuck with that
if its $1500 i'd just get a CPU cooler
yea
to replace the intel stock
gammaxx 400 or whatever is cheap and good in au
SE 224 is $35
i'd pick that
theres no point in going AMD ryzen when it costs $90 more
lol
thats so dumb
10400 has essentially the same gaming performance
tru
@proven knot

amd has alot of of oc pontential
case has no fans
amd has alot of of oc pontential
@dim nymph who needs OC?
o
crap
wait what
one sec lmao
mx330-g air is real nice
ez 3 fans for cheap
and a decent case too
with tempered glass too
only other issue i have with that is putting a Corsair CV with a 2070 super
lackluster PSU
Hello
*cv 450
What’s wrong with the cv
just a budget unit, really not meant to run a higher end card like a 2070 super
mhm.
decent option for something like a 1660 super or cheaper
also ketchup and mustard cables
If there was a cx500 with multiple PCIe cables, that'd be nice...
Didn't even notice it was ketchup and mustard lol
yeah, id take a EVGA W3 over a Corsair CV personally
just for the fact its all black cables
lol
w1
Well the ketchup and mustard cables can be fixed with cable extension
Yes it can you plug the cable extenders into the cables
🤦
That is why they are called extensions
cable replacement kits =/= extentions
also full replacement kits generally cost the same as the whole PSU
ok lmao
lol
Best 500gb drive for your OS?
sry it took so long, I had to be gone for a pop quiz in eSkool
why such a over priced kit of ram
cl13
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
bruh oc is very useful sometimes
but it's b460?
for half the price
Put a cheaper ram in and put a hdd in
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
4 cores like i7 6700k is useful to oc
but b460 doesn't let u go above 2666 tho right
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
Then get a different mobo
ik but won't b460 not let u do 3200mhz
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
ArgGHHGghHG
lmao
ikkkkkkkkkkkkk
YOU CAN UNDERCLOCK THE RAM
You can get a mobo that does 3200 for the same price
@slim escarp show
the 3200 CL16 will run 2666 CL16, and you can go adjust the timings
to CL13
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
🤦 fax xD i'm dumb
the board wont let you clock over 2666, but you can still adjust timings
which is why...
3200 CL16 can do 2666 CL13
monday mornings hit different when ur trying to think
true
alr added
hmm corsair cv is tier c
Nvm I see you are getting a intel so mobo are pricey
yea I had to pick a cheaper one @stark bramble for the previous budget with that ram...
i'll replace it xd
ah
i5 10400 is $90 cheaper than the R5 3600, and just as good for gaming. so thats why we recommended intel @slim escarp
I’m not hating I’m just saying
Intel mobo are more expensive
Isn’t the new ryzen 5 5600 better and cheaper
which is $420 AUD
thats over 20% single core performance on the same nm size in a single generation, from zen 2 to zen 3. thats unheard of. doing 8 core CCX's so that all the cores have access to all the l3 cache doesnt give you a 20% gain in single core performance.
take that benchmark with a MASSIVE grain of salt. its a single test that has 0 other information added with it. we have no clue what frequency it was at, or what ram was running with it.
not uncommon to see early samples having faked benchmarks
very little trust in AMD after the leakes they put out the day before Zen 2 launch, that the 3700x was 5ghz all core beating the 9900k in everything
expecting the exact same thing with Zen 3
@slim escarp problem isn't the performace, it's the price- 420$ for the cpu is expensive... it's the same cost of the current cpu and mobo
combined
heres some perspective on what we mean
too expensive for this build rn
and thats highly likely either a fake, or heavily doctored benchmark result
at the end of the day, you can't know performance for sure until it comes out :)
AMD is KNOWN to put out insane leaks of their performance right befor a launch
Hey I’m new to this pc things I’m just going off of what people tell me so now I know
Zen 2 leaks the DAY before launch
was that the R7 3700x did 5ghz all core
and crushed the i9 9900k
guess what didnt happen
lmao
good, good
they have always been lies in the past
why would it be the truth this time
was the 6 ghz oc done by AMD or someone else
nice
not worth the $100 more
nonmod psu
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/DNJr68 yea mod psu
in fact
u have 125$ to spare
EVGA B5
gold zen
probably an OTP issue with the B5, since a lot of EVGA units have that problem
o
i'd trade modularity for spending $55 less overall
or, getting a nice CPU cooler
so the CPU can turbo boost itself
in win pb
tru... I mean- https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/DNJr68 is 125$ under the overall budget rn...
so there is defo room for additions in places like a nice aio, extra case fans, etc etc
H410 < B460 < H470 < Z490
ty
mostly has to do with io availability and certain features no one uses
i think wikipedia has a nice chart
https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/YryCbh @arctic jungle
@stark bramble think of it as the higher the number, the better
ight
cas latency 
o
yeah H410 only have 6 PCIe 3.0 lanes?
i knew it was less
but wow
thats.... awful
lol
xD
i mean it uses 4 from the cpu
gpu gets the remaining 16 from the cpu
leaving you with 6 for m.2 and other pcie devices
wait
y the 10900k only have 16 lanes tho

but can we talk about how this looks cool as hell?
I love the aesthetic of those super clean mobos
You know you could 3D print or laser cut something
And wrap or paint it
Then get the same aesthetic
For like $10
bruh
but it doesnt work
so uv spent 10$ on a chunk of plastic
plus the lost time designing it and finding a public use 3d printer
You have to buy a base motherboard too silly
lmao
i dont like it that much
i mean it looks nice but like i dont think its cool as hell
its all subjective
nah
like a 3090?
you gotta think about how it would look along with the rest of a system
its the perfect amount of white to go along with the majority of black/white components
lol
I'd rather spend more on a case.
the deepcool ex white aio, with some trident z white ram
Something you actually see
me just like "if it fits budget and it works i add to list"
oof, but for being a "professional mobo," only 8 usb ports on the back?
that kinda sucks lol
yeah what a plebian amount of usb ports
lmao
i need at least 15
i mean my x299 dark has 7 at the rear, i would expect something like this to be loaded with em
3 mouse, 3 kb, 2 rgb mousepad
yes
but dual thunderbolt ports is pog
3 rgb mousepad tho
right
3 mouse 2 kb 3 rgb mousepad
if it's for fps
lmao
get outta here
i have a gamecube adapter and a usb snes controller
some games just play better with a controller imo
im a simple man i have 1 mouse chip 1 wireless headset plug
eg super meat boy
just get headset with big earcups
Maybe.
PCX37 or 38
i have DT 990 pros, they have huge, circular earcups
imma go find a pair of glasses brb
okay
i am using a pair of my dads reading glasses lol
how does this man see my eyes hurt
ok the dt990 pros are still just as comfortable with glasses on
they just kinda sit over them
a
b
@jagged ember pc38x has better sound profile and stuff
c
yes, i agree
so pc38x is quite a bit just better
very understandable
Hello guys I need someone’s help right now I’m planning to build a PC with a budget of 1200-1300 dollars with a Ryzen 5 5600x and a RTX 3070 what other components do you advice in this price range
and with the extras it's pretty dope
anyways i know 700 is a tight budget but ITS OK
it's alright
Who pinged me?
lmao i dont even have a table yet
700 isn’t tight
Ikea
bLEh
Need monitor+keeb+mouse?
Is your friend
because that would make it tight
pcpartpicker doesn't have the 3300
It’s like the beginning to a budget system without going for seriously outdated software or buying used parts
so, with peripherals then
pcpartpicker doesn't have the 3300
@jagged emberit#1940 it does?
I cant find it lol
Open a new pcpartpicker
And dont choose any part
currently
And type ryzen 3300
oeuf
Oof that makes it very tight then
communist egg
nothing, friend
@jagged ember its oos anyways
hm
Wtf
i'm thinking not a 550 at this price
I'm thinking my 550$ list plus monitor and cheap mouse keeb
geezuz christ and i thought i understood computer stuff lol
Lets try and build a understanding of how much we’re spending per part
all i see is NO321331 I2n323nN
I'm thinking my 550$ list plus monitor and cheap mouse keeb
@stoic island send it over!
mon listo
all i see is NO321331 I2n323nN
@foggy seal you pick it up as you go along
ah, yes
I go find 144hz monitor
Yeah
can one of u pls do the same thing as Mr1111 but with a budget of 700 dollars
Peripherals are difficult
im honestly clueless on computers
workin on it
Because it depends on the users preference
e to the pic
I go find 144hz monitor
@stoic island i know benq has a monitor thats ips 1 ms 144 hertz for like 180 dollars
And aoc or one of the A brands might have released some super cheap monitors
That have the same specs
lol VIOTEK has a 144 hz monitor for 150
Oh yeah
you think we can fit a 180$ monitor with a 550$ list with a 700$ budget?
Forgot about that
Thats the cheapest good 144 hertz monitor i can think of lol
140$ refurb pixio thing
https://www.newegg.com/p/3D4-000Y-00002
You might be able to get one at 120
130$ wack viotek thing
https://www.newegg.com/p/3D4-000W-00085
Is this a good price
refurb is manufacturer refurbished :P
Yes
meh
Anyone
not that great
Ok
And a psu

And what looks to be a cpu cooler
Ok
yea seriously that might even be overpriced
Damn
Reason: Duplicated text
it's a 80$ case, 20$ cooler, and basically 50$ psu.
Reason: Too many infractions
bai again
RIP
no
can it cool sodas tho
overpriced for what they are
i need a cooler for a party
Its not good?
they're 35$
Isnt it like 30 dollars
for less performance than a 20$ gammaxx 400
Damn
Doesnt the arctic duo cpu cooler cost like 20 dollars
I disappear now
Its really good isnt it?
HElp me
What do you need help with
Look in your messages
lmfao
No its a scan lol
lmao
Sam
it's 100% a scam
scam
Scam*
yeah
there's 0 way it's true
lol
Loll
it's more likely a paper cutout
The pic
@wild briar pics can be faked so easily
than an actual GPU
Never but it from people
@little osprey You do a reverse photo lookup of the pic lol
that's why you ask for the pic
Anyone else want to help me
Is he calling it a paper edition @foggy seal
If they dont mention its a paper edition, thats illegal right?
@little osprey You do a reverse photo lookup of the pic lol
@stoic island oh 🤷♂️ kinda obvious just never really crossed my mind
well, let's see where they stole that photo from
Lmao
LOL
Dude
the only thing i know are cores and rtx and gtx thingy things
wow they didn't take any effort in stealing the first pic on this page lmao
oof decent monitors are hard to find at a low price
ofc
but there's that 130$ viotek thing to fallback on
Black friday
true
I'm gonna go now
just get a moniter from the 90s
good luck
but it will
@vague maple help me
here, at least
Plz
have u seen it
seen what
lmaooooooooooo
well thats the 90s for you
do you care if your keyboard is really really clicky
that, too
okay
Preference
no clickies suck
i will literally get you the loudest keyboard i know
lol
i prefer linear
Otemu blues, here i come
and we're over budget
LOL
no opinions
ik sorry for the tight budget man
Anti ghosting
i remember my first keyboard, if you click too many key at once, i think it was 4 or 5 than it didnt register and it make me sad in shooters
my first keyboard was from ross
Yeah that keyboard actually works well but I switched back to logitech cheapo cause it's quieter
how big do you want your monitor
so 24
