Where did you buy your Lian Li unifan 120 from? I have been trying to buy some with no luck. @lament ginkgo

sacred knot
#

if i start buying parts soon, is it worth it to wait till december 6th to order the Phanteks Eclipse P400A Digital?

stoic island
#

Why not buy a Coolermaster TD500 mesh :D

#

I like it over the P400a for cooler support, while still having great airflow.

sacred knot
#

i like the looks 😊

#

i know the looks aint everything

thorny tusk
#

Wait till the deal day

stoic island
#

TD500 mesh worth a look, if you don't like it, it's fine.

#

But it is great.

sacred knot
#

but i heard it still has great thermals too no?

#

the phanteks

#

Wait till the deal day
@thorny tusk what deal day?

stoic island
#

Gamers Nexus does amazing testing

thorny tusk

The temps

sacred knot
#

stoic island
#

Between P400a and Td500 mesh

sacred knot

stoic island
#

:)

sacred knot

stoic island

Wait for 5000 series

#

For the chips

little osprey

foggy hazel

little osprey
#

thorny tusk
#

The pc pics for this

pine shuttle
#

theres no tray covering the psu?

foggy hazel
#

@little osprey please post in #build-pics instead of here :)

stoic island
#

you can just take those as needed now

foggy hazel
#

oki :)

#

you finally got annoyed enough?

thorny tusk
#

When you realize he will do it not you

stoic island
#

lol

#

will make more later

#

I'm thinking 1800/2000/2500/3000

#

and then make a list for periphs

#

then a ssd parametric selection

#

:D

thorny tusk
#

Having fun there

stoic island
#

I actually need a ssd parametric selection

#

too tired of manually looking for each one whenever I switch regions

little osprey
#

@pine shuttle It didn't have one in the box I was sent

pine shuttle
#

hmmmmmmm

little osprey
#

Still runs fine without it tho.

pine shuttle
#

i mean, the cover just makes your pc looks cleaner

thorny tusk
#

What are you looking at mr1111

little osprey
#

I know but the hassle of trying to contact the company is just not worth it

#

I'm thinking about upgrading the motherboard. Cpu and gpu. Ryzen 5000 series and the new amd gpu

trail shuttle
#

@sacred knot use the Crucial Ballistix RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL16 Memory
instead

#

its better in my opiniion

sacred knot
#

how do they differ except for the rgb?

fringe wharf
#

First build tips?

#

Like putting it together

strange knot
#

Is the rx580 better than the 1060ti?

vital warren
#

1060ti?

#

do you mean 1060 6gb

safe peak
#

is 4 gigabytes of vram enough

vital warren
#

I mean

lyric thistle
#

for what?

vital warren
#

it's not really favored today

safe peak
#

1080

vital warren
#

should be okay

safe peak
#

1080p

lyric thistle
#

sure it's enough

safe peak
#

what about on high settings

lyric thistle
#

yes

#

1080p high

#

at least in the case of the 1650 Super

safe peak
#

ok thats it thansk

ashen herald
#

hi

little osprey
#

You guys think Nvidia will lower the prices because of amd?

river bobcat
#

No I highly doubt it because of the demand

violet harness
#

HI

foggy hazel
#

@little osprey highly unlikely based on what we know so far

little osprey
#

The new amd gpu would require a new motherboard and cpu. In which. Nvidia doesn't I get it.

#

Rage mode is needed i believe?

foggy hazel
#

just about none of that was true or logical. so please try again

lavish knoll
#

What’s some of the best cases you guys recommend

idle hawk
#

hello

#

i had a question maybe some assurance

rapid kestrel
#

guys ryzen 3600x or 9400f

idle hawk
#

9900k asus maximus hero z390 1200w psu

frosty crystal
#

Can you do the the Smart access memory and rage mode with b450 @foggy hazel

idle hawk
#

would that fit well with a gigabyte aorus 3080

little osprey
#

Intel isn't a good choice in 2020 or 2021

rapid kestrel
#

yea for 3080's i9 and i7 is the way to go

idle hawk
#

well i didnt pay for the i9

rapid kestrel
#

or ryzen 7 and 9

idle hawk
#

i already have it

#

the 3080 will be here tomorrow

rapid kestrel

lyric thistle
#

@coarse coral @vagrant burrow

little osprey
#

Ryzen 5000 series will be seriously fun

idle hawk
#

ive been happy with my i9 i have it paired with a water cooled 2070 super

rapid kestrel
#

how do i get my specs in my name

little osprey
#

Get a 3090

#

You need to be a regular

idle hawk
#

little osprey
#

I over clocked my 2070 is it considered a super? Lol

#

idle hawk
#

no one get triggered

unborn bane
#

F

idle hawk
#

but i dont trust amd lol

rapid kestrel
#

omfg lol

unborn bane
#

6900xt for same price

little osprey
#

3080 Ti or super. Is probably the best choice if don't wanna upgrade your cpu and motherboard

rapid kestrel
#

which cpu

#

and mobo

lyric thistle
#

I don't trust any company

#

beyond using their products, which is a form of trust in itself

little osprey
#

AMD BAD AHAHHA

unborn bane
#

5700x, x570 board and a 6900XT would get you a very good system

rapid kestrel
#

hybrid which cpu and mobo

little osprey
#

I have a b450f motherboard but with the new bios and updated chipset. It states 550. I'm kinda confused about it.

idle hawk
#

whops

#

wrong chat i posted this into

balmy patio
#

understandable

unborn bane
#

so a b450 board is compatible with 3000 series and apparently 5000 series

balmy patio
#

but still looks good @idle hawk

unborn bane
#

i wouldn't be surprised if 450 and 550 was same chipset but with stuff turned off

idle hawk
#

thanks ill send an updated one when the 3080 gets here

little osprey
#

My pc plays red dead 2 pretty well

rapid kestrel
#

i got b450 too

idle hawk
#

i can play monster hunter world at 90 to 100 fps

rapid kestrel
#

with r5 3600x

idle hawk
#

only game that pushed my gpu past 50c

little osprey
#

It's hit or miss on 4k high settings tho

rapid kestrel
#

i can do valorant at highest at around 240

#

1660ti yk

idle hawk
#

i cap out valorant at 260 and my monitor is a 240hz

rapid kestrel
#

i cap 144

#

144hz thats y

idle hawk
#

lol

little osprey
#

I put Resident Evil 2 remake 4k max settings. It plays decent but the gpu is 100% usage lol

idle hawk
#

240hz 1080p

rapid kestrel
#

im casual tho so xD

balmy patio
#

im pretty sure most, or all, b450 motherboards don't have pci-e 4, except for the M slot, i might be wrong on that @little osprey

idle hawk
#

i mess around with a judge

rapid kestrel
#

yea ur righjt

idle hawk
#

and win lol

little osprey
#

My laptop does 500 hertz

rapid kestrel
#

its annoying cause then if u upgrade to rtx 3000 you cant use pcie 4

idle hawk
#

last time i checked we only got up to 320hz on a laptop

#

my laptop does 144hz

balmy patio
#

yeah you wont get the most of it, even if its backwards compatible i think

idle hawk
#

razer blade stealth 17 2019

rapid kestrel
#

my mac can do roblox at 30 fps

idle hawk
#

oof

#

im just scared this big chungus of card wont fit

#

cause my 2070super is slimmed down

#

i sold my 1080 ti

balmy patio
#

just check for clearence @idle hawk and you'll be fine

little osprey
idle hawk
#

i doubled checked and compared it to the 1080 ti and it looks like the 3080 is only wider compared to my old 1080 ti

little osprey
#

How does a b450 board use b550?

idle hawk
#

it took 100 from it lol

rapid kestrel
#

AMD IS BACKWORDS COMPATIBLE

balmy patio
#

yeah it is

idle hawk
#

normally amd has a backwards compatibility of 3 to 4 gens

balmy patio
#

but with a bios update if the mobo doesn't come with a bios update from the factory

little osprey
#

Remember when we had to flash the bios with the motherboard disk in command line?

balmy patio
#

and @little osprey i dont know much about bios and all that, but have you checked that that is the correct update for you motherboard?

idle hawk
#

hybrid which board do u have now

rapid kestrel
#

guys is b450 tomahawk max the best b450 mobo?

idle hawk
#

im actually very knowledgeable with tech but bottlenecking is out of my realm

rapid kestrel
#

guys is b450 tomahawk max the best b450 mobo?
@rapid kestrel ????

idle hawk
#

tomohawk boards are very reputable at a decent price

rapid kestrel
#

mhmm

#

its 120usd

idle hawk
#

untill you go to something like the msi godlike

#

or the watercooled aorus boards

rapid kestrel
#

btw i have a 1660ti rn with r5 3600x so i wanna upgrade to a better gpu later, what shd i get

balmy patio
#

how much money are you willing to spend

rapid kestrel
#

i was thinking 3060ti cause its been leaked

#

around 300usd

idle hawk
#

3060 got delayed and it just a rebranded 2080 ti

rapid kestrel
#

yea

#

now its dec 4

#

3060 got delayed and it just a rebranded 2080 ti
@idle hawk u mean 2080 super

midnight matrix
#

Rebranded 2080 for 300$ is not bad tho

rapid kestrel
#

yea

balmy patio
#

@rapid kestrel if you want to upgrade, then get a 5600xt or 2060

idle hawk
#

im pretty sure theyre gonna start a riot with it being a rebranded 2080ti

#

if it was

balmy patio
#

theyre pretty good graphics cards at around 300

midnight matrix
#

2080 prices gonna drop again if 3060 is faster

idle hawk
#

yea with all things considered with it being nearly impossible get a 3080 or 3070 imagine a budget card lol

little osprey
#

@balmy patio I downloaded the chipset from the asus site under my exact board. Just weird.

midnight matrix
#

If you can’t get a 3060 just get a Uber cheap 2080 super

little osprey
#

2080 super runs hot ?

idle hawk
#

depends on the model

#

i believe the FE cards ran hot

#

i choose the evga hybrid 2070 super cause underload the card never hit beyond 50c

#

besides monster hunter

#

im gonna be curious on temps for the 3080

#

i cant wait lol

little osprey
#

Out of stock

idle hawk
#

yep

#

got it a while ago

balmy patio
#

nice

idle hawk
#

#

me and my buddy found a way to get the edge

balmy patio
#

bruh if only good graphics cards said productivity instead of gaming, my mother would let me buy one

little osprey
#

Id get a new card to do 4k. 1080p on my 2070 is fine

idle hawk
#

you can do 4k on a 2070

lyric thistle
#

guess youl'll have to get a Quadro then

balmy patio
#

the price of a quadro is my whole budget smh

idle hawk
#

the price of a quadro is the price of my pc

little osprey
#

4k on the 2070 is dropping the settings lower. I want max settings 4k lol

idle hawk
#

3070? then

balmy patio
#

real coyote
#

Cya

unique kite
#

alright hopefully the supply of the rtx 3060 will be good

balmy patio
#

if a 3060 is going to come out, i'll prob expect it to be 350ish and similar performance to a 2070, maybe a 2070s

idle hawk
#

theyre basically rebranded with some extra bands and whistles

balmy patio
#

wdym?

idle hawk
#

i can be wrong so dont quote me

#

the 3060

river bobcat
#

How much vram will decide if it competes with AMD's low-end

little osprey
#

Hey guys
is it better to buy a rtx 2000 series laptop now or wait for the 3000 series

river bobcat
#

right now it's looking like a 8gb from AMD

#

could be wrong

idle hawk
#

i felt bad for someone on newegg be bought a combo and then tried to cancel the mobo but the rep cancelled the whole order and offered a 20$ newegg gift card

river bobcat
#

omg 😆

little osprey
idle hawk
#

so its just a 2070 not a super

little osprey
#

I bought it when 2070 came out

idle hawk
#

fun fact

river bobcat
#

I got disappointed with the 20series horrible price to performence

little osprey
#

dude
ur making me jealous

idle hawk
#

you can crank these numbers as high as u want but its a game against heat

#

the more the heat the lower the clock speeds

balmy patio
#

i mean, @river bobcat, at that time, they seemed pretty good price to performance since it was the only performance out there

little osprey
#

I just gave my card a tiny over clock

idle hawk
#

mine too lol

#

but it stays at the boost threshold lol

river bobcat
#

I mean I came from a R9 390 and bought a 2080 super, I expected more.

idle hawk
#

all cores at 5ghz

little osprey
#

I'm at 4.30 ghz

idle hawk
#

i can hit 5.1 but it gets unstable

little osprey
#

I remember overclocking the amd fx 8150 to 4.20 ghz thinking I was doing something amazing.

river bobcat
#

I hit 5.2 with a 9700K

balmy patio
river bobcat
#

I once managed to hit 5.3 with a 6700k, unstable af

little osprey
#

I haven't used intel since the dual core days in 2006

unique kite
#

pentium 4 is the best cpu

idle hawk
#

@river bobcat did that 6700k explode lol

river bobcat
#

lol I got a pic

little osprey
#

Won't explode it just burns and dies

river bobcat
#

It was at 67 idle if i remember

idle hawk
#

67c at idle.......jesus

little osprey
#

I burned up several AMD FX cpus

idle hawk
#

were you using ln2?

little osprey
#

Crazy to think the ps4 has amd fx it kinda grosses me out

idle hawk
#

dont forget the ps5 and xbox series x has big navi gpus in it

#

aka amd

little osprey
#

Amd should be a trillion dollar company

little osprey
#

I'm really surprised Nintendo didn't use amd

river bobcat
#

68c, close enough

@sacred knot fine card, heard the cooler has not as good performance as other 5700xts

#

but still good enough as long as you give it adequate airflow

vague maple
#

may i ask why did you get a 10920x?

viral ore
#

556 10920x vs 439 for a 3900x

sacred knot
#

but still good enough as long as you give it adequate airflow
@viral ore is cooler master td500 considered good airflow?

viral ore
#

factor in motherboard costs, and the price ends up the same

#

any case is good airflow if you have enough fans

vague maple
#

@viral ore is cooler master td500 considered good airflow?
@sacred knot y es

viral ore
#

is it TD500 mesh?

vague maple
#

very good airflow if its the mesh

sacred knot
#

Yeah

viral ore
#

nice

vague maple
#

and decent airflow if its normal

viral ore
#

very good case

vague maple
#

mhmm

balmy patio
#

except cases that are literal boxes with no holes

vague maple
#

3 stock fans that preform great

sacred knot
#

But wait would i need more fans?

viral ore
#

nah

vague maple
#

not really

#

the 3 fans are enough for sure

viral ore
#

that case is good enough for any components

balmy patio
#

you want an intake and an exhaust at least

viral ore
#

would suggest getting an exhaust fan tho

balmy patio
#

^^

vague maple
#

you could pick up a 4th fan for an exhaust at the back and 3 at the front, but you'll be fine with 2 intake fans and an exhaust fan

sacred knot
#

Cos im not getting one cos someone told me that the ryzen 5 had good stock fan

#

Or something like that

viral ore
#

yeah stock cpu cooler is fine

vague maple
#

the 3600 and 3600x does have adequate enough stock coolers

sacred knot
#

Are exhaust fans the same as regular fans but u put it in the back of the case?

vague maple
#

no

#

exhaust fans suck out hot air from the case while intake fans suck in fresh air outside of the case

viral ore
#

fan is fan

vague maple
#

most exhaust fans are located at the back, while intake fans are located at the front or the top

viral ore
#

exhaust means it blows out

vague maple
#

fans can be either intake or exhaust depending on how you put them in

sacred knot
#

Are the case's 3 front fans enough for the intake?

vague maple
#

if you put them in normally, its intake, if you flip it onto the other side, its exhaust

#

more than enough

#

you can do 2 fans for intake and it'll still do well

#

and put the third one as exhaust at the back

sacred knot
#

Theyre removable?

vague maple
#

yes

viral ore
#

4 screws

vague maple
#

pretty sure every fan is removable

sacred knot
#

Wouldnt it kinda ruin the model? 😂

#

Is there any low cost fan i can use for exhaust?

vague maple
#

no, you literally just screw it out

#

arctic have very good preforming fans for low prices

sacred knot
#

Any of them havr rgb?

vague maple
#

do you want rgb on your fan?

#

ok

#

whats your budget for a single fan?

sacred knot
#

Idk how much they normally cost but im cutting it short on budget for the full pc

vague maple
#

ok

viral ore
#

cheap case fan for 10 dolla

vague maple
#

30 bucks is the maximum i would say, to spend on a fan

#

absolute maximum

viral ore
#

or you could get one that is identical to the ones that comes with the case

vague maple
#

ll20s go for 40 and they have great looks and good cooling if you want them

sacred knot
#

Since im buying from quebec and you have to sell your soul to the devil bc of taxes

#

And shipping

slender rampart
#

a

vague maple
#

this one has great thermals, looks and will match your stock fans with the case

sacred knot
#

Thanks alot

vague maple
#

np

sacred knot
#

Full pc would cost about 1.5k

vague maple
#

ok

sacred knot
#

Gonna sell some organs real quick 😂

vague maple
#

lmao

#

if you're gonna sell some organs

#

build a 10k build

#

and a 10k monitor setup

sacred knot
#

Hahahahaha

vague maple
#

and a 10k peripheral build

#

and spend 10k on rg

#

rgb

#

you get my drift

sacred knot
#

You can spend 10k just on rgb?

#

😂

vague maple
#

i guess

#

it'll be difficult though

sacred knot
#

Anyways thanks again

#

Goodnight all

For younger brother for Christmas

#

Mostly borderlands and rocket league

vague maple
#

@little osprey swap out the case, get a bigger ssd and dont get that 75 hertz monitor unless you really need a second monitor

little osprey
#

@vague maple meant to remove that 75hz

vague maple
#

ok

little osprey
#

That should be the right one

#

And also, that SSD is just for OS @vague maple

vague maple
#

if you buy used, you can get a good quality 2070 super for the same price as the gpu i listed

#

if you really dont want the build to go over 1000

#

you can get the 500 gig version of the crucial p1 for 50 dollars less

little osprey
#

@vague maple it's only for borderlands 2 dude

#

Does he really need a 2070S?

vague maple
#

that's true

#

but you can get a better gpu for the same price

little osprey
#

I mean that's almost better than what I'm running and I can run 2 just fine at max graphics

vague maple
#

so why not?

#

ok forget the 2070s

#

the 2060 will be a great card

#

he has the option to raytrace, will be able to run all his competitive games at 144 hertz and can play maxed out immersive games

little osprey
#

I'm trying to stay in the 900 ballpark, 950 max

vague maple
#

oh ok

#

lemme make some changes then

little osprey
#

I also have ram and main hard drive on hand

#

He just needs one for OS and drivers

vague maple
#

oh ok

little osprey
#

2x8 gb 3200 adata zpg z1 ram cards and a 2tb Seagate external hard drive

#

All his games are currently on the external

vague maple
#

ok

#

i got a 500 gig drive so he can install his os and a lot of small games on that

dusk hollow
vague maple
#

and the price jump is like 10 dollars so

little osprey
#

@vague maple thanks

vague maple
#

np

#

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/KCHht8. Ordered all parts but cpu I was originally going to get 3700X as 8 cores is nice but 5800c Is so expensive.
@dusk hollow you cant refund any parts can you?

#

if no, then thats a nice looking build

little osprey
#

I'll skip the fan though a have a couple blue led ones laying around from my old case

vague maple
#

oh ok

#

the case comes with 2 stock fans

#

i just added the third for 2 intakes and 1 exhaust

little osprey
#

Ik I have that case

vague maple
#

oh nice lol

little osprey
#

I have 2 spare blue led and 2 black ones

vague maple
#

ok

little osprey
#

In fact the 4000D is the one in my pfp

vague maple
#

no way

#

make sure you get the airflow though

#

you get great thermals with the mesh front panel

little osprey
#

3 front(intake) 2 top(exhaust, 1 rear(exhaust)

vague maple
#

damn

#

didnt know the case had that many options

#

for fans

little osprey
#

And then my CPU cooler is from a 9 3990x

vague maple
#

ok

little osprey
#

Or is it 3950x?

#

Its one of those

vague maple
#

ok

#

pretty sure the cooler is the same for both

little osprey
#

🤷‍♂️

#

Depending on prices, I may get myself the 5000 and 6000 series AMDs and a b550 Asus and give him my CPU/GPU/Mobo

vague maple
#

ok

dusk hollow
#

@vague maple why ?

vague maple
#

why not a rtx gpu?

#

@vague maple why ?
@dusk hollow would make some modifications to that part list

dusk hollow
#

such as ?

vague maple
#

lemme change the lsit

dusk hollow
#

okay

little osprey
#

TBH, I prefer AMD over intel and/or nvidia

#

I almost want to get my brother an Intel, but that's more expensive

vague maple
#

i would personally get a 360m aio just for the visuals

dusk hollow
#

I have uk prices btw which are heavily inflated for example $500 USD for a 3070 is actually £380 but instead they we listed at £550 which is about $730 :( same story with my cpu which is $300 that's converts to £220 but in actuality I'm gonna end up paying £280- 290 witch is 270 usd.

vague maple
#

i know

#

i used uk prices

#

wait remove one of the ll20s

dusk hollow
#

I paid £5 for both of them

#

from a friend

vague maple
#

the coolermaster masterbox has 3 stock fans for intake, the aio would take up the 2 top spots and you have an extra ll20 for exhaust

#

oh damn

#

thats an insane deal

#

that's personally what i would go with if i was making that build

#

but if you've already ordered all the parts, its fine

dusk hollow
#

i literally already have everything and can't return psu

#

I wish I went 750

vague maple
#

hm

#

any reason why you chose that psu?

little osprey
#

I got a 750w 80+ gold fully mod for $50 cash

vague maple
#

dayum

little osprey
#

Brand new

vague maple
#

what brand

dusk hollow
#

only one instock

little osprey
#

Still in plastic wrapping

#

Asus rog strix psu

vague maple
#

wtf

dusk hollow
#

literally couldn't find any at all apart from that one

vague maple
#

for 50 dollars?

dusk hollow
#

@little osprey tf ?

little osprey
#

Yep😁

vague maple
#

doesnt the asus one go for like 200 dollars lmao

#

overpriced piece of crap

dusk hollow
#

pc goo boom

little osprey
#

Yep

vague maple
#

mhmm

little osprey
#

I have a pic somewhere if y'all want proof I have it and it still had the plastic wrapping around the box

vague maple
#

dayuuum

#

Came with a 10 yet manufacturer warranty

#

I am set for PSUs

dusk hollow
#

@vague maple why recommend different ram ?

vague maple
#

cl16

little osprey
#

Y'all want to know where I got it from?

vague maple
#

lemme guess

#

wish

#

or aliexpress

little osprey
#

Facebook Market Place

vague maple
#

wow

little osprey
#

Wish is overpriced as hell

vague maple
#

facebook is making a resurgence as an ebay knockoff lmao

little osprey
#

I saw a 4gb 570 Radeon for $2000 on wish

vague maple
#

that's just a troll

little osprey
#

And a case for $1000

#

I rarely use wish

#

But yeah...I got lucky

#

The seller even tried to sell me a zotac extreme 2080TI for $500

#

I declined

vague maple
#

why?

#

the 2080ti is on par with the 3070

little osprey
#

I didn't have $500

vague maple
#

it beats it by 1-5 fps on some games

#

oh lmao

little osprey
#

Yeah

#

Plus wouldn't it bottleneck a 5 3600?

vital warren
#

you'll be fine

vague maple
#

not really

#

a 3600 is fine with a 2080ti

little osprey
#

@floral ermine is your CPU cooler on properly?

#

I though it was supposed to go left to right

little osprey
#

is Intel Core i5-9400F a good processor?

floral ermine
#

@floral ermine is your CPU cooler on properly?
@little osprey no it's "gravity mounted"

#

And also air is blowing in the right direction

#

But gravity I meant mount doesn't fit cause capacitor clearance

#

So it just sits on cpu

#

Parts listed as purchased I already have

vague maple
#

ok

#

ill take a look

#

oh boy

#

lots of changes to make

#

@little osprey what are you using the system for?

#

do you want to spend some money on making the build look good?

#

and do you want rgb

#

hello @little osprey ?

#

ok

#

ok

#

definitely not the best price to performance, but you get stupidly high levels of performance, amazing visuals and the best in every department

real coyote
#

if you call the pc011 "amazing visuals", then sure

steep raptor
#

Ryzen 9 with a gtx 1650

#

All I can afford

real coyote
#

??

#

why would u do that

vague maple
#

oh i see

#

np davis

#

i dont know half the parts in that list

real coyote
#

ahh

#

half of them were out of stock

vague maple
#

i see

real coyote
#

hence the custom parts

vague maple
#

you can add items and put custom prices on them

real coyote
#

really?

vague maple
#

you dont have to create the custom part

#

yah

real coyote
#

didnt know that lol

#

why are you doing a Micro ATX board in a mid tower @pallid juniper

pallid juniper
#

tbh that was one of the parts my friend picked and I'm the most unsure about

#

what would be a better choice?

summer flicker
#

a regular ATX board will give you flexibility for add ons in the future

#

what's your total budget?

#

also did you not use a 5000 series processor on purpose?

pallid juniper
#

sth. between 1000$ and 1400$

#

I knew about the new processors but im not really sure its really worth it

#

it would probably future proof the whole thing more

summer flicker
#

the 5600x is about the same price as your 3600x

thorny tusk
#

3600x is not worth just get the 3600

pallid juniper
#

oh i thought it was 200$ vs 300$
then yeah ill just get the 5600x

#

if there are no shortages like with the gpus

thorny tusk
#

Don't get the x it's not worth the money

summer flicker
#

it's 50 bucks more and blows it out of the water from the cinebench scores

#

but it's up to you

thorny tusk
#

It's a very small difference between x and non x

#

Also you may what to dr4 3600 cl16 memory

pallid juniper
#

since im mostly gonna use the pc for gaming my main concern for the cpu is not bottlenecking the gpu and as far as i know that shouldnt be the case for either the 3600 or 3600x

#

ill probably make the exact choice when i have a feeling for the final cost

thorny tusk
#

Yes

pallid juniper
#

just one more specific question about the case
is this a decent choice and should i add some extra fans for airflow?

thorny tusk
#

You can add fans later

pallid juniper
#

ok thanks for your feedback guys 👍

summer flicker
#

you can change out your CPU if you want. the 3600x adds 50 dollars US and the 5600x(no non x listed) adds 100. Then your graphics card

thorny tusk
#

Do you need wifi on the board

summer flicker
#

true didn't think about not needing wifi. I get it for convenience but true gaming rig should be hardwired

pallid juniper
#

Unfortunately I’ll have to use WiFi
No ethernet ports anywhere close to my room

thorny tusk
#

Power line ethernet look it up

pallid juniper
#

Ohh I didn’t know about those

summer flicker
#

better than wifi but can have issues

thorny tusk
#

But it's definitely better than wifi

pallid juniper
#

I’ll read more into it later

jagged ember
#

Eh

#

It'll be good if the wiring in your house is good

#

Plus, wifi ain't bad if your router is bad

#

You can also get a wifi adapter instead of a mobo with wifi

thorny tusk
#

Also if other people use it

Morning, building a new gaming rig with the ryzen 5600x next week feel pretty confident in my build but might need a placeholder for the new GPUs for 6 months to a year. any recommendations on the best budget card that will still get me stellar results for now?

Should I get a 9600k with a 1660s or a 3600 with a 5600xt?
@runic nebula 3600 + 5600xt

storm vigil
#

I’m building my first pc this year : ) and I’m getting an XFX Radeon RX 580 but don’t know whether to get a ryzen 5 3600 or 2600. Would it really matter in game performance?

stoic island
#

What about not getting a rx580 and getting a 1650 super >:D

#

And yes 2600 vs 3600 matters in game performance

#

@storm vigil what's your overall budget?

storm vigil
#

Well for the gpu I already bought the 580 lol but my overall budget it’s 700-800 dollars

little osprey
#

intels a better option here imo

#

how much did u buy the 580 for @storm vigil

storm vigil
#

I bought it for 150

#

@little osprey

little osprey
#

and ur budget was 800 usd with the 580 ?

storm vigil
#

700-800 so around there

little osprey
#

wifi or no ?

#

@storm vigil do u need wireless connection or do u have ethernet

storm vigil
#

I need wireless connection

#

It doesn’t have built in wifi so I need a wifi card

little osprey
#

this mobo has built in wifi

#

and it features the rx 580 youve already bought with the corresponding price

storm vigil
#

Damn thanks. I already have my memory, ssd, and psu. But this really helps thanks dude

little osprey
#

great best of luck

viral hatch
#

This is my current Dell optiplex build. Is it worth keeping, upgrading, or replacing with a whole new system

#

I7-2600 (3.4 GHz base- 3.9 ghz turbo), 16 gb ddr3 ram clocked at 1600 MHz, 256 GB SSD, (1) 750 GB HDD, (1) 600 GB HDD, 500W PSU, and a GTX 1650 with 4gb of GDDR6 memory

little osprey
#

we could borrow some parts from that build if youre looking to build a new system

#

upgrading would be a hastle as youre on ddr3 platform and that would mean a cpu/mobo/ram upgrade

#

keeping the 1650 and transferring it to your new build will be beneficial to your budget as its a great card for entry 1080p gaming

viral hatch
#

Some person told me if I put an RX 580 8gb or Radeon 5500 XT 8gb in my system it would be amazing

#

Cuz rn I play warzone and get about 100-120 fps on medium

#

Simply cuz I have 4 gigs of vram

little osprey
#

@vague maple get the 5600xt over the 1660 and even the 2060

#

Some person told me if I put an RX 580 8gb or Radeon 5500 XT 8gb in my system it would be amazing
@viral hatch RX 580 would also be a good choice. the system youre on right now is pretty outdated for 2020 but i wouldn't worry about it too much. if u want to build a new system just ask in here as there are tons of people who will help u out

viral hatch
#

Ok ok

little osprey
#

we just need your budget, use, if u need wireless connection or not, and what country ur in

viral hatch
#

Ok ok

#

If I have any more questions I'll come back

#

Thanks for the help

storm vigil
#

Can we get this guy a raise 🗿

plucky oar
little osprey
#

it's a great list but theres room for improvment

plucky oar
#

any ideas

little osprey
#

why do u need two sata ssd's ?

plucky oar
#

oh that is a mistake

little osprey
#

here let me compile one for you

plucky oar
#

it is only one

little osprey
#

i just need a budget, wifi or not, and use of the pc

#

i wont be including peripherals so i just need the budget of the computer itself

plucky oar
#

1000 but that includes the 75 monitor

#

so make the pc 800

little osprey
#

alright give me a few minutes

plucky oar
#

okay

little osprey
#

1000 including peripherals u said ?

plucky oar
#

yeah

#

but just make the pc budget 800

little osprey
#

just a few cents short of 1000 usd including peripherals

#

3600 cl18 is relatively the same performance as 3200 cl16

plucky oar
#

yeah i was wondering about that

little osprey
#

if u do want to spend a little bit more we could make a few more adjustments to the ram

#

such as 3600 cl16

plucky oar
#

i can do the ram

little osprey
#

one sec gotta change the psu

plucky oar
#

yeah that is helpful

#

why change the psu

#

it is a decent psu and i am trying to leave some headroom for upgrades

little osprey
#

hmm alright if thats the case we can leave the psu as is

#

hopefully that list could be helpful to you

plucky oar
#

i mean let me check the tier list

#

yeah it really is

little osprey
#

alright best of luck with the build and do ping or message me if u need anything

plucky oar
#

yeah

vague maple
#

@vague maple get the 5600xt over the 1660 and even the 2060
@little osprey no?

little osprey
#

Why not

#

It out preformed the two

#

cus its a hell of a lot more expensive

vague maple
#

it trade blows with the 1660s and gets outperformed by the 2060

little osprey
#

I saw one on Newegg for 230

vague maple
#

nvm it out performs the 1660s

little osprey
#

it keeps up with 2060 as well

vague maple
#

but doesn't change the fact its like 200 dollars more expensive

little osprey
#

not really

#

2060 vs 5600xt ?

#

it's not that much of a price diff. 5600xt is cheaper iirc

#

as well as performance that rivals that of 2060 in rasterization

#

It beats the 2060

#

Watch a benchmark video on YouTube

#

at lower the price

vague maple
#

2060 is more expensive yes

#

while the performance is pretty much the same

little osprey
vague maple
#

i'm not using visual benchmarks

#

i'm using a benchmark website

#

those are a lot more effective

viral ore
#

the 5600xt is the better card for the price

little osprey
#

^

#

I'd go off of real world results

#

the price/perf of 5600xt easily outmatches that of 2060

vague maple
#

i would personally go 2060 because of nvidias reliability and rtx features

viral ore
#

2060 RTX is useless

vague maple
#

2060 super is a much better value deal though

jagged ember
#

2060 only if u want rtx and nvenc encoder

little osprey
#

The 2060 can't use rtx

viral ore
#

2060 is just as reliable as the 5600xt

jagged ember
#

but yeah 2060 rtx is crap

little osprey
#

nevermind rtx youll only be getting a fraction of a frame

vague maple
#

I'd go off of real world results
@little osprey it lists those as well

viral ore
#

2060 for nvenc

little osprey
#

nvenc is pretty much the deciding factor between the two

vague maple
#

honestly idk why you're considering 2060

viral ore
#

also, a good benchmark is reflective of real world performance

vague maple
#

2060s is much better in everything

viral ore
#

if it wasnt, then its not a benchmark worth using

vague maple
#

and has good value

#

mhmm

little osprey
#

of course 2060s will be much better in everything the price difference between a 2060super and a 5600xt is immense

#

Sounds like we have an Nvidia fanboy

vague maple
#

eh, not anymore

#

i'm not a nvidia fanboy lmao

#

you can get a 5600 xt for what 300 dollars?

#

i've seen 2060s go for that price as well

#

320-400ish

little osprey
#

where are you finding 2060s for 300 usd

#

thats a big range kekw

#

You can get a 5600xt for 230

viral ore
#

2060 for 300, 5600xt for 279

#

as of rn

vague maple
#

that's a 20 dollar difference

#

and the 2060s outperforms the 5600xt by a lot

little osprey
#

hey bud

#

read it again

#

carefully

viral ore
#

2060s is 100 more

#

at 400

vague maple
#

oh 2060s

little osprey
#

2060(non-s)

vague maple
#

*2060

#

lmao

#

my bad

little osprey
#

youve been saying 2060s this whole time

viral ore
#

goof

#

lmao

little osprey
#

and even if youre talking about a 2060 5600xt beats it in price/perf

viral ore
#

^

vague maple
#

no im talking about the 2060s rn

#

ik the 2060 is a crappy card

little osprey
#

of course its going to be more powerful than the 5600xt thats cus its 100$ more expensive

#

The cheapest the 5600xt consistently goes for is 280

viral ore
#

are you gaming 1080p?

little osprey
#

you cant compare two cards of two different price ranges

vague maple
#

looks like the cheapest brand new option for a 2060s is 400, which checks out

little osprey
#

if youre going 1080p 5600xt is enough

vague maple
#

but then b stock 2060s sell for like 320 don't they?

little osprey
#

@reef linden can u make list now

#

A 5700xt is 400 usd and gets near 2080 performance

viral ore
#

if your running 1080p, settle for the 5600xt, if youre running 1440p, the 2060s is probably the better choice

little osprey
#

@little osprey i can help make a list

viral ore
#

oh yeah, the 5700xt

little osprey
#

Ok

viral ore
#

that ones good too

vague maple
#

little osprey
#

@little osprey budget use and wifi pls ?

#

The value on a 5700xt is crazy

vague maple
#

they just got overshadowed by the driver issues in the beginning

little osprey
#

driver issues have been fixed for a while now right

#

Amd fixed the drivers

plucky oar
#

i mean i would try to see if you could fit in a 2070

little osprey
#

2070 no

#

I have an amd and have had no recent issues

#

2.1k cad gaming school work video editing 1080p

plucky oar
#

viral ore
#

2070 has been EOL for a long time

little osprey
#

Ethernet

vague maple
#

#

get a 2070s for a fraction of its msrp or get an amd alternative/rtx 3070

plucky oar
#

oh yeah

#

i forgot

little osprey
#

Get a 5700xt over a 2070

#

It does a little worse but is alot cheaper
