that would be good
@stoic island if I get memory, should i get 16gb 3600 or 32gb 3200
Gaming?
Zen 3 releases nov 3rd right
I'm making you a list >:P
built in?
yea
then yes
I... must... resist... Unify...
gonna have some fun with building an aesthetics build
god damn it I can't go all out aesthetics :(
oh well
haha
perf is good
custom loop gt 730
oh then that's fun
but im saving 500 for a monitor
I was getting to the around 1700-1800 range, I can slap monitors in the list too
what kind you want?
lg 144hz 1440p its 496$ i think
.-.
hell, 170hz actually lmfaooo @safe peak
https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824012018
I love the specs on that monitor tbh
great colors
great refresh rate
is that new?
U own?
that's amazing for the price
M27q is fairly new
170 hz xD
that is a really good deal i would think
but also remember their G27q with VA panel at ~300$ usually
they just HAD to do one with 5 hz above average
lol
I have pc parts picked out that i cant even afford
is that just OC or is it fefault
Im sad
if i get a monitor would i get ips or cuved va
Ips
ips crisp
IPS IPS ISPISPISPSIPSIPWSISPISPISPISPSIS
|
like apple
idc if it's curved or not tbh
curved is more immersive
IPSPSPPSS
actually
I punched my pc
isnt 27 inches too big for flat?
i dont have a pc, i have a 2009 mac get on my levle
level
like for solo games
well it's flat but it's actually a really nice deal rn
https://www.newegg.com/p/N82E16824012015
anyways
lemme check for curved
It hurt my hand
๏ฟผ
ight
huh
and your feelings
My feeling are badly hurt
Bc i cant play a game without freezing every time i see somebody
Pixio PX248 Prime 24 inch 144Hz IPS 1ms FHD 1080p AMD Radeon FreeSync Esports IPS Gaming Monitor https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08GYFQD6L/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_DtiNFbKDBT6Y5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
G27q is usually 320$ so it's fair to go 40$ more the 360$ M27q
for 290$ the G27q is an amazing deal imo
I mean, <300$ for 1440p144hz ips
When ur cpu is from 2012๐คก
true
same dom
when your cpu is an i3 5th gen
Struggle
fx 6300 gang
my roomba just hit me
yikes
I have an r9 380
i have a 1060 6gb
i need an upgrade :/
alright, first revision of the aesthetic focused build with monitor:
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xm6dmk
My old pc has a 1050ti strix
could chase aesthetics a bit further with the motherboard
but there's no nice black wifi boards
Pog
until you get to the GODLY X570 UNIFY
what in the god is taht
@safe peak it's VA
so many m.2 nvme
those are some beafy heatsinks
storage
X570 unify is the best motherboard currently in existence for am4 imo
i dont have a use for three pcie slots
@fleet pagoda yes it is
eh
I got the z490 vision d by gigabyte
yeah
It is bad?
earlier today evga bstock had a 2070s for 380
on prebuilts they usually skimp out onthe ram, cpu cooler and fans
remember
damn
Bruv
3070 builds for <1000$
and a 2080s for 430
mhm
yeah thats what im doing
b stock 2080 super was just like 460$
o.O
1k budget
and that was in stock just earlier
I have a 2$ budget atm
@stoic island is air cooling better than an aio?
build it yourself
@safe peak debatable, I like it better
Thats pog
I like it much better
aio gets you better performance by a slight margin, but I don't want water in my PCs
true
water scary
and imo an u12s looks great in an anti-rgb build
My evga 2080 super was 1100 then i did the step up program and got 3080 for 100$
Lol
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/z7fjp2 fix this for me someone
they're the best company for consumer computer cooling products period
I need a sugar mommy
ight
Yur
ima hop off guys peace
Very nice thanks
is the Corsair RM750 750 Watt 80 Plus Gold a good PSU?
or are there better ones for $140
Yes
@pliant vapor Enermax Revolution D.F. for 130$ for 850w
Multi rail, jap caps.
My current build inputs? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/rhsgJf
@stoic island thanks for the suggestion
2080?
Then we can't give you any input
other than like "ty I hate it"
Why not like a 240 hz monitor and 2 other 60hz
Do u even have a budget.-.
Lmao
Fedex that to me
If u want it to be
๐คฃ ๐ฏ
basically any one that isn't a ventus
ok
k thx
so lets say i have a 1500$. pc budget
could someone help me with that
like make me a list and dm me
@weak field #general-chat message
Someone made a $1500 list and it seems decent
I'd probably not buy that i9 though
@hazy rune Demonmit is the local deals guy
I wouldn't say his lists are good for new builds (in terms of pricing for new parts)
gamer system
where is ram rgb
yes
describe
This one
I'm afraid to pull hard and break my motherboard
I'm trying to I'm pushing down the tab but I can't pull it out
motherboards aren't that weak :P
but yea
don't use much force for anything other than the 24pin
nice
Hi ppl
hi
rtx 3090 amd ryzen 64 core epic ikr Corsair H115i RGB Platinum ez cool Gigabyte X470 AORUS Gaming 5 ATX WiFi Motherboard. noice and Corsair RM850x epicccc the build do be looking thicc i wish i had that lol...
That's $1700 isn't that over your budget?
I wouldn't buy 3900x... especially right now
woah thats a good pc tho
Samsung ssds are overpriced, but otherwise it looks good to me
cpu is my main complaint
ye mabe overclock it
Ryzen doesn't overclock well
But if that's your thing, 3800x will overclock better than 3900x
mhm
so a 7 3800x?
Whoever messaged in build pics u cant send messages there
@exotic dragon i could probably get away with 132gb of. 3200mjz right?
@weak field 132 gb of ram is... inadvisable
I reccomend 128
the extra stick will slow down the last channel
b r u h?
but what if i like the 132 number?
@foggy hazel nooooo
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/adata-xpg-sx8200-pro-controller-change
welcome to tech
Sad
yert
so
im back
and i was thinking since i swapped to an ATX mid tower, I want to change the motherboard from mATX to just standard ATX. I know it doesn't matter much, but like I just feel like it'd seem empty.
here's my list:
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/arewhyaenn/saved/#view=jZMY99
@little osprey depends on the model, and also, EVGA b stock is a nice thing to check.
2080 super was there earlier today for ~450$
but thanks anyways
yeah i heard used psus if not extremely abused are techincally the same
Used GPUs can be fine
But I like b stock
idk
Much safe bet
whats b stock??
It's basically refurbished by EVGA
Gonna quote them
"B-Stock Products are units which may have small scratches, small dents, or noticeable use. B-Stock products are Factory Recertified to meet the performance and reliability of a new product of the same model. B-Stock products do not come with any optional accessories and only include the accessories required to use the product as listed below"
oh oke
@stoic island ah your master now, gg
@uncut pelican wdym I've been here for ages
I'm trying to get to legend
Very soon
Read what they say
^^
Helping a friend make a part list for her pc, would you guys say I should recommend the 5700xt or a used 1080ti?
I need a table for my new build. I would prefer it to be black wood or plastic. U der $125
iikea
Can someone tell me why a mobo won'tcome with a cpu socket cover
Is like they want to trigger my anxiety
Idc how many preventive measures there are pls just include a socket cover
Is it a mini ITX thing?
@olive kraken is it Intel or amd?
amd
Well that explains it lmao
They dont need a socket cover
Since its not pins like Intel socket
Oh wait, that makes sense xd
Lol yup
Brain not working 404
It came in a plastic bag right?
yah
Nice
Excited to build in it
jk idk how people build in itx cases I feel like a surgeon plugging things in without seeing anything xd
@olive kraken depends on the case
only real difference for some of the more ... convoluted.. cases is that you need a plan for how you assemble it (or be willing to build, tear down, build again. over and over again until you have it assembled
True
I am used to building my ATX mid tower and I have recently done some mini-ITX builds for some coworkers and oh my
No matter how hard I tried to premeditate my cabling somethings were just so cramped together I cut myself with the cpu cooler fins twice
big noob energy
well, in a fair number of itx cases, unless you go custom cabling. you just have to accept that there are cables everywhere
zalman has the record in my mind for that
and there was also one goldenorb knock-off model that was basically razor blades
:)
you know that you are supposed to replace the fan, not rub the fin stack right?
:P
yeah its a pretty cramped case
holding it up with one hand while trying to screw from top
next time, place it on its side
laziness gets to me:P
true
wait i did the same for a U12S and i didnt get hurt
price diff really shows up in different places
:)
Is a b550a plus with a ryzen 5 3600 good
Is this good as it is? I switched out the GPU from RTX 3080 to 3070 since after buying other stuff like keyboard and mouse would be around $2,000 https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4LWrVc
So... I can't turn my fans any slower than turbo
is a 2700x with a b550 steel legend and a 2070 super good?
i am building a pc and i just need a few more parts
should I also change the Ryzen 5800x to 5600x?
@naive arrow so what exactly is the context behind the choice?
I'm thinking of adding an nvme to my ps4
hey, what would be a good laptop recommendation for ms office web browsing?
@little osprey i would recommend, as usual, that you read up on the connections that the ps4 support
Any with a SSD should work.
so the cheapest in the market with an ssd is fine.
could get a decent CPU with it
but no need to spend like 1000$ for a laptop for web browsing and ms office
I'll go find smth
im not sure because i hear a lot of people recommend that mobo or is there a better one for my build?
hmm seems overpriced right now, but eh, example laptop
https://www.newegg.com/asus-f513ia-eb55-wh/p/N82E16834235513
@naive arrow I'm more concerned about the CPU and GPU choice first
hm whats wrong with my choices?
There's little reason for those today
oh
simply outdated
yea i will upgrade soon
So what do you already own..?
Can you specify what you already have?
even better, can you slap them in
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/ ?
By the way, I don't think B550 supports Zen+ CPUs
wait wait wait, have you used them before, or have you just bought them?
no i havent used them
Because I'd return the 2700x and 2070 super for either newer variants or just something better off b stock at a similar price
yea i might sell my 2700x and get the 3800x but for now im fine with my choices '
uh
i will upgrade
B550 doesn't support Zen+ chips afaik
Hey
Thanks
Should I rush to buy one? Will they have stock issues like GPUs
mhm
ye
@foggy hazel there's adapters
read up on things @little osprey
what rx 5600 xt would you recommend for under $300?
Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce 2060 rtx super?
@austere condor Do you build custom pcs for people or like make your own and just sell them
And would if u do would i be cheaper having u make it or making it myself?
Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT vs GeForce 2060 rtx super?

@tired turtle so i saw you have a threadripper do you game on it by any chance
@broken basin what gpu u got
@analog pulsar don't buy a TR chip
If you're buying it for that purpose, you might as well get any of the 5000 series chips
Those were actually built for gaming
More cores and threads != More gaming performance
In this case, it actually means less gaming perf with more cores
Yep
Because each core is slower
Gaming is still mostly single core
@analog pulsar don't buy a TR chip
@stoic island sigh I want one reeeeee
I want a 3080 too
But I know I won't be using it's full potential
So I do not buy one lmao
And, the fact that I'd have to buy an entirely new psu with it
Wait do you play FS
For you, it'd mean buying an entire new mobo and cooler
Also, what is that lol
Maybe if it's in full name I'll understand
@jagged ember prob flight sim 2020
Flight sim 2020
Oh
You'll get worse perf on FS on a TR chip than a 3rd gen Ryzen chip lel
Does anyone have gta 5 if so can it run on a 2gb gpu
Does anyone have gta 5 if so can it run on a 2gb gpu
@remote iron yes... it can run
Ok
Cause my pc donโt have a gpu but a built in one and it still runs gta but a little laggy
Cause my pc donโt have a gpu but a built in one and it still runs gta but a little laggy
@remote iron what proccessor?
@analog pulsar no I havenโt played any games on it sorry
Oh okay
@uncut pelican rx590 nitro special edi
Hi, his is my first build and I wanted to know what you think about it and if you see any easy way tu cut the price. https://secure.newegg.ca/wishlist/pd/37359311
Mic
Nice
You can probably go with a cheaper Ryzen idk
And upgrade to a 5000 series chip later on
Idk
Guys whatโs a good GPU to pair with an i7 10700K?
I here that the NXZT H510 case had bad airflow. How much does that matter? Iโm not going to be over clocking or even running super intense games. I really like the look of that case and itโs a decent price.
3 degrees differnece at the cpu and almost nothing at the gpu
i don't know why erverybody hating on the h510. It's a decent case
I here that the NXZT H510 case had bad airflow. How much does that matter? Iโm not going to be over clocking or even running super intense games. I really like the look of that case and itโs a decent price.
@regal lava get the 275r
Good case good airflow
And itโs like 100$

@regal lava or a td500 mesh
Okay thanks Iโll look into those
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cjyNqp good? but still not sure about which 3080 to go with
No cooler
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cjyNqp good? but still not sure about which 3080 to go with
@earnest ravine get a td500 mesh or 275r
@earnest ravine and 32gb ram would be better if In budget
@violet harness why 32gb
Itโs better ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ
If ur gonna get a gpu and cpu that quality, might aswell go for 32gb ram
ik but isn't 16 enough
@earnest ravine dont listen to him
ik
@violet harness stop
@little leaf chill buddy Iโm just suggesting 32gb would be better ๐
I would get a 1tb ssd
so stock cooler good
Yes
ima get a 2 tb drive
It also depends on what ur using it for
apart
Like gaming I assume ?
@earnest ravine just copy my list name
ight
the thing is i like the other case idk y
Chnage it
ok
Yeah u could probably be good with 750w or 650w psu
Nono
wait is it possible to put an aio on the top
I daid change it because it wad pricey
for future
looks good @little leaf
Dont get an aio
not even in the future
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3mmzNP is this a good build for now because ima just wait for the 3080 to come back in stock and its not going to be anytime soon so im prob gonna wait until next summer for it
@little leaf
I would just wait a little more
It should be better stock by early 2021
And amd is coming out with good cards too
the thing is im prob not going to be able to pay for it early 2021 thats why i want to get it in the summer
Them your spending 400 more dollars
Its your choice
But if I were you I would wait
and also once im done using it i could give it to friend who kinda needs it because is gpu isn't the best
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07VNB23RZ?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 this one is good too
@little osprey
no prob
i like the corsair one
its sleek
wow
4 included fans ? thats such a good deal
i mean 3
yup
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BPP9KYD?tag=pcpapi-20&linkCode=ogi&th=1&psc=1 im getting this one it already has 2 fans i would just have to add more
for a black and white contrast
would the 275R black or white would look nicer
there's like a 2 cent difference
with the parts im using
i would talk to @stoic island if i were you
@stoic island
yup
just the color
white case or black case in regards to my parts
ive talked to him for my list actually
cuz the ram is black the cooler is black
psu is like dark grey matte
so like would a white case look better or a white case
same model
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/tFpvW3
@little osprey 2x16 is better than 4x8
ok
Because motherboards usually have 2 preferred DIMM slots
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/m3BRkX
@earnest ravine nice
o
streaming maybe
ik 16 is the sweet spot but like
why not more haha
my friend spent $3500 and has $64 gb of corsair vengeance rgb lmfao
has a 3950x and bought the 2070s instead of the 2080ti earlier this year haha
https://pcpartpicker.com/product/zcH8TW/gskill-ripjaws-v-32-gb-2-x-16-gb-ddr4-3600-memory-f4-3600c16d-32gvkc or https://pcpartpicker.com/product/kXbkcf/gskill-memory-f43200c16d32gvk samething is one is 3600mhz and the other is 3200mhz
@little osprey
ill find a set
Ripjaws already good asf price so go for higher speed
but 3600 is what im looking for
I have sticks of 16gb 3600 cl16 ripjaws myself and its quite good
thats the one im getting
well
im just not getting 32gb lol
i might just go with 16
ok
i dont exactly plan to spend over $100 on ram bc i have a budget and if i can get a $80 3600 then its fine
the one i put is the best in my opinoin
it looks better than the ballistix
ew
Hey does a ASUS Prime B450M-A/CSM AM4 Micro-ATX Motherboard supports a ryzen 3400g?
i need help
procedure has not changed
ask your question, and people will answer if they have the answer
lets say i have a 1500$ budget
and i wanna build on am4 platform
@empty ginkgo no
i just need some suggestions for what i should be looking for
@empty ginkgo yes, that CPU is supported on that mainboard IF you have bios version 1201 on the mainboard
asus offcial site
Hope it has this version because I've already bought it. Let's see
@empty ginkgo it most like will if you bought. After zen 2 launch
@little osprey looks good thanks!
@little osprey wat u need
@weak field less random trolling in channels would be appreciated.
@little osprey suggestions like that. Belong in #general-chat
@stoic island I pinged you a while back about the 275r case
Whether it should be black or white
isn't that just personal preference
hi
@broken basin what gpu is that?
sapphire rx590 special edi @oak moss
nice
@wet prairie need wifi or no
@wet prairie welp, list revision 1, slightly over budget
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hcfBZZ
Current Build plan
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WPVzNP
@iron berry any way you can un-purchase that SN550..?
probably
I don't have any real issues with the rest of it
I just don't want anyone to have a dramless SSD
especially at a high budget
what would you recommend as a replacement
SN750/MP34 are nice
yeah but the 1tb gets a bit pricey i could work some extra hours to cover it to keep the 1tb
MP34 at 117$ for budget, SN750 at 130$ at good
Okay, if you really need to keep price down
~105$ for P1 1tb usually
is it 130 i thought it was like 150
I can return until jan 31 cuz amazon gift return stuff
7$ more for a 1tb NVMe drive with dram instead of the SN550
no the sn750 i thought it was 150
Well it's 130$ now
https://www.amazon.com/Black-SN750-NVMe-Internal-Gaming/dp/B07M64QXMN/
i wasnt checking newegg for a bit cuz amzn points
heres a question
two 500s or 1 1tb
probably do the one tb just another down the line later
right
I'd do single 1tb
the good thing is neweggs november policy if i goes for cheaper i get a refund
There's definitely a use for multiple smaller drives when you have like a PCIe add in card
Yea for some items, check if they have the black friday protection thing
items have to have it
?? I thought it was on select items
that sounds more right
but with the storage I can just watch it myself and return the 550 for the time being
Fair
Only other thing is that motherboard is expensive, but that's your money to spend.
Yeah ive been told it was an impulse purchase and I dont get buyers regret ya just live with ya choices
but also some of the others were also around the same price in the 200s so i kinda doubled down on the chance to buy it
Thinking bout putting my 3070 build in this
@stoic island would a 3600 or a 3600xt bottneck a 3070?
In 1080p yeah
what about 1440p?
@safe peak the answer is no
Listen to neither of them
The 3600 will only get like 6less fps with a 3080 than a 3950x
@silent canyon your wrong
Is the 1660ti for high-ultra 1080p 60fps, suitable?
Which game
I believe so.
Which game
@little leaf a healthy mix of Warzone, Total War, and Witcher 3
Is there real difference between WD black and samung 970 evo ?
@haughty swan sn750?
SN750 is just a better choice at 130$ for 1tb than 150$ for 970evo 1tb
It has higher write speeds too
it looks like the Asus Strix 3090 is the best aftermarket graphics card for team green
@weak field any particular reason you are linking that?
Real talk, when you installing your mobo in your case would you install the rear fan before or after inserting the mobo for the sake of room?
depends on the case @burnt sandal
and how many thumbs you are equipped with
then you can do it in any order you want
worst that can happen is you have to disassemble things again
was considering dropping my mobo in cuz i have everything on it now
but fans not here yet
lol
have you actually booted it?
nah
do yourself the favour and do that
then why are you assembling it?
cuz it's easy to put that stuff on rn
for your own sake, i hope your parts actually work.
there is a very good reason that a lot of people test boot
wait so you'd test boot outside the case first?
ofc
Thank you @little leaf
I have 1500 budget to 2k whats a good build ?
My name
Someone ping me?
@uncut pelican
Yessir
oh misunderstood carrier on my b
Ur good
Hello is it possible if someone here can tell me if my pcpartpicker list is fine and if not any suggestions its for a budget build for $749
sure
Is it okay for me to post the pcpartpicker link here?
This is going to be my first build so im not entirely sure of what i have is good enough or is there anything better
for 750?
Yeah
Im still changing stuff as i look at it so at the moment im at $707
I'm trying to build a simple gaming pc that can also multytask a little without trouble
alright
hey i have a quick question
how do i know if the prices displayed are good enough?
some are already on sale so idk if theyll go back down
and is shipping insurance worth it?
or other types of warranty
(im buying from quebec so prices are different bc of shipping and crap load of taxes)
hrmm cant quite say, if you are buying though newegg or amazon you should be fine. most parts already have return warrantees where you can get your money back or even some more back if you return a DOA part
but i dont know Quebec taxes so.....
about 15% (5% federal taxes and 10% provincial)
i know ๐ญ

sounds like whatever courier service in your area is going to cut some corners..... litterally
how does anyone make profit in that area?????!?
I thought my taxes were high
how does anyone make profit in that area?????!?
@dry pine that is an excellent question
i dont have the answer to it tho

hmmm... yeeeeesss
Those are the lowest prices with taxes and shipping or pickup... Are they too high?
The lowest total price is 1500.86$ CAD
bruh use pcpp
I did but pcpp doesnt take into account taxes and shipping
oh
just estimate tax
and it does account for shipping
it tries to, i dont think it works all the time
Yeah the prices i wrote are the ones with tax and shipping from the websites given by pcpp
The lowest ones*
But idk if theyre gonna drop lower tho
probably not
prices dont usually just drop, but there are things that usually do go on sale
like the SN750 is almost always on sale
and the 3600x was "on sale" for 170 for months
Someone told me that a new amd cpu is coming out and that the price for ryzen 5 woupd drop then
Whats that?
like the SN750 is almost always on sale
@viral ore and what is that?
its an ssd
Are aftermarket stuff worth buying usually?
yeah, buying used components is the best
u just gotta watch out for scams and the like
with 1500 cad, you should be fine with just buying new components
nah, not for components
i mean, sometimes, but its the super expensive components that see the major price drops, if anything
the components you could afford wouldnt be affected
Quick question
Isnt 440$ considered super expensive? ๐
lol no
in the pc world no
Would a US PSU work in Europe?
MSRP of the 3090?
๐ญ๐ญ
not even close
2k?
Also anyone able to check my part part and tell me if I need to change anything?
