sharp tundra
#

Bruh....

cursive wolf
#

3080

sharp tundra
#

Bruh

vital warren
#

why such an expensive list wth

sharp tundra
#

I thought you said you're budget was $2500 USD = 9000 Riyals

vital warren
#

and you can't sli with 3000 series iirc

sharp tundra
#

@cursive wolf

#

3090 you can

#

Cause thats necessary right? Lol

ember coyote
#

I’m trying to build my first gaming pc, nothing crazy just about 2000$, any builds you guys know of

sharp tundra
#

Bruh...

#

Everyone building a first pc for $2k $3k and I'm sitting here with my $1k pc

vital warren
sharp tundra
#

@cursive wolf what is your actual budget?

ember coyote
#

Well I’m working for it, figured I should start off on a decent one

sharp tundra
#

cause you told me a 9000 riyals ($2500 USD) was your budget

#

And you just slapped on an extra $3k on to it

cursive wolf
#

see this

sharp tundra
#

Do you really need 18TB of storage?

ember coyote
#

Damn building a pc and just throwing a laptop on it lol

cursive wolf
#

yes

sharp tundra
#

And you is your prices not showing right?

cursive wolf
#

it is right

sharp tundra
#

Its not

cursive wolf
#

it is

sharp tundra
#

$220 USD is not 225 QAR

cursive wolf
#

then

#

hey how to add pheripherals to the list

sharp tundra
#

The part that says peripherals

#

Also, I am almost 100% sure that some of those prices aren't right, so you need to rebook at some of them

#

Cause I know you're at least $4k-$5k over budget right now

latent storm
#

am i gonna have to run fan header splitters to use mini itx?
@latent storm

cursive wolf
sharp tundra
#

Bruh

cursive wolf
#

see this

sharp tundra
#

LISTEN TO MY WORDS

cursive wolf
#

this is a very good list

#

what

#

nomad what

#

?

sharp tundra
#

You can't buy a gaming laptop for 10QAR

#

Look at the prices

cursive wolf
#

ok

latent storm
#

so with the gigabyte b550i aorus pro ax, the product page says theres three fan connectors at the bottom right but i only see one 4 pin and

sharp tundra
#

They aren't right, I'm telling you dude

#

18 TB of storage doesn't cost 3 QAR

cursive wolf
#

now

#

you just do the prices and give it to me

sharp tundra
#

Bruh

#

What is your budget

cursive wolf
#

what

sharp tundra
#

Fr

cursive wolf
#

9k

sharp tundra
#

9k USD? Cause thats about what your at right now?

latent storm
#

wtf is qar

#

what currency is that

sharp tundra
#

Qatari riyal

alpine thunder
#

looking for some assistance here

latent storm
#

im american i dont know what that means

sharp tundra
#

Its his countries currwncy

alpine thunder
#

trying to install these lian li strimers and i have hit a roadblock

latent storm
#

america is only country

cursive wolf
#

i am from india actually

alpine thunder
#

any help is good help

cursive wolf
#

i live in qatar but

sharp tundra
#

Jack, listen to me, everything you got on that list you CANNOT afford if you're budget is only 9k QAR

cursive wolf
#

ok

sharp tundra
#

Those prices are not correct

cursive wolf
#

ok

#

i will change

sharp tundra
#

The original pc i built you was exactly on budget.

#

If you need other peripherals or Software, I can change some things

#

But that PC i first gave you, will cost you 9k QAR

cursive wolf
#

ok

#

ok\

#

i dont need this

latent storm
sharp tundra
#

You have mouse, keyboard and headset right?

cursive wolf
#

i dont have headset the one which i have is broken

sharp tundra
#

Okay, ill factor that into the build, but you're gonna be sacrificing a bit

cursive wolf
#

ok

sharp tundra
#

Is there anything else you NEED

cursive wolf
#

what am i going to sacrifice

#

?

sharp tundra
#

Provably the cpu and gpu

cursive wolf
#

then how will i game

#

remove all the pheripharels otherthan the headphones

sharp tundra
#

Bro, you can game on ALOT less of a system than what I built you

cursive wolf
#

ok but i dont need the pc now

sharp tundra
#

What all do you need?

#

What?

cursive wolf
#

yes

#

i dont need now

sharp tundra
#

What you mean?

#

Like you don't need it anymore?

#

Or you don't need it right now

cursive wolf
#

no not like that

#

i just needed the list

sharp tundra
#

Okay, tell me what everything is you need

cursive wolf
#

i dont want you to build it no prob

#

ok

#

i need cpu,cooler,motherboard,gpu,case,storage,os

sharp tundra
#

Other than that

#

Omg

cursive wolf
#

umm

#

nothing else

sharp tundra
#

So just the pc is all you want?

cursive wolf
#

i need the moniter

sharp tundra
#

Anything else?

cursive wolf
#

keyboard

#

and mouse

sharp tundra
#

I thought you said you had those things?

cursive wolf
#

thats all i need now mae the list and give ,e

#

me

#

but those are too old

sharp tundra
#

Send me a pic of them

cursive wolf
#

like the keyboard has the windows 7 logo

#

ok

sharp tundra
#

Okay ill add a mouse and keyboard

cursive wolf
#

ok

latent storm
#

will i be fine to put an aio in the nzxt h210 mini itx

cursive wolf
#

ok

#

send the list now

#

hey show

sharp tundra
#

I'm still changing things

cursive wolf
#

ok

sharp tundra
#

The sight is in USD because the Qatar sight doesn't sell every part here

cursive wolf
#

this is ok

#

QAR5979.64

#

it is 5979

#

it is ok

sharp tundra
#

No its not

#

I did all the conversions already

cursive wolf
#

it is

#

there is no price for 5 things

sharp tundra
#

Dude, I told you, those prices are not right because they do not sell some parts in Qatar

#

I know this, those parts you have to order from a another pcpp sight

#

From US, or UK, any of them

#

That has them on the sight

cursive wolf
#

can i get from ebay

sharp tundra
#

You could yes

cursive wolf
#

ok

sharp tundra
#

But 9747QAR is what that build i gave you will cost you

cursive wolf
#

ok

sharp tundra
#

More or less by a little depending on where you shop

cursive wolf
#

ok

#

i have shrunken my budget

sharp tundra
#

Huh?

cursive wolf
#

yes

#

i have shrunken my budget

sharp tundra
#

To what?

cursive wolf
#

to 3000

sharp tundra
#

Oml

#

I'm done

cursive wolf
#

#

my friend will surely buy that for me

sharp tundra

I hope not

cursive wolf
#

why

sharp tundra

Cause you change the budget to 3000qar after I gave you a 10k qar that you said was fine

#

I'm a little pissed ngl

cursive wolf
#

dude no prob

sharp tundra

Okay then

cursive wolf

bye

and check my friend request

latent storm
#

is the rog strix b550i really worth an extra $40 over a gigabyte b550 aorus pro ax

#

shoot its the only one with a usb c header

grim pagoda
#

Is gaming in 1440p but getting under 100 Fps in most games worth it?

#

Like 60-90fps

pearl blade
#

It depends, csgo or R6? Yea you need a lot of frames. Cyberpunk2077? You don’t need 200 FPS

#

But again it depends on what you’re talking about

latent storm
alpine thunder
#

anyone still online got any experience with lian li strimer cables or thermaltake riing trio?

nimble tulip
#

thoughts on this?

#

does it seem solid?

#

didnt include gpu cause I already have one

fleet pagoda
#

What gpu u have

open peak
#
fleet pagoda
#

U could probably find a cheaper 165 hz monitor

open peak
#

Cause the stuff I've read researching is confusing me

#

Looked like a fairly good price to me for a curved 165hz from the looking around I did

viral hatch
#

Ayo imma need to know what y'all think of my Dell optiplex build

open peak
#

It's in au dollars

#

Though I'll keep looking around to see

viral hatch
#

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 (Upgrading to a Gtx 1080 ti 8gb)

#

I think the CPU can be ocd to 4.1 ghz

#

Not too sure

open peak
#

Anyway if I were to get it would gsync or freesync work?

fleet pagoda
#

If the monitor has it

#

I think

#

Im gonna be getting the samsung g7

#

1440p 240hz 1 ms

ripe wedge
#

@open peak freesync works with nvidia gpus and amd gpus and gsync works with nvidia gpus (not 100% sure if amd is compatible)

open peak
#

Alright so will probably want to find another monitor then

#

The one I was looking at supports freesync but doesn't appear to support gsync

#

And I'm using an nvidia gpu

earnest olive
#

@viral hatch for intel core cpus, if it doesn't have a "K" in its name then it can't be overclocked

#

you may be able to fiddle with BCLK to get some more speed but it's generally not worth it

#

there's also no such thing as a gtx 1080ti 8gb so i'd check whatever you're buying that from it's probably a scam

@uncut pelican mp34

grim raptor
#

hello guys

stoic island
#

I'd change the ram, otherwise all good.

grim raptor
#

what kind of ram

stoic island
#

3600c16 ram

tropic ember
#

3200 to 3600 is the sweet spot for RAM speed.
However, you still want to get the lowest CL that you can find/afford.

jade spruce
#

any feedback? disclaimer I already have 2 more SSDs and one HDD in my current PC

weak field
#

looks good

#

h510 has bad airflow but looks nice, up to you

jade spruce
#

yeah thats the only gripe I have with it too

#

but I think I'll be fine with temps

weak field
#

yeah the nzxt aer and cooler should balance out that

arctic jungle
#

3200 to 3600 is the sweet spot for RAM speed.
However, you still want to get the lowest CL that you can find/afford.
@tropic ember uhm no ty... 3200mhz cl 16 = 3600 mhz cl 18... if you aren't buying rgb ram, 3600mhz cl16 costs 75$, while 3200 mhz cl 16 costs 50$

#

no reason to ever not get 3600 mhz cl16 unless ur on a mobo/cpu that doesn't support it, or ur on a tight budget- usually those 2 things go together

grim raptor
stoic island
#

uh

#

why

#

the previous one was soo good compared to that one

analog hearth
#

@grim raptor definitely change the case

#

yeah, it looks good, but those parts will die within a year due to too much heat

#

not enough airflow with that case

weak field
#

yes, like i said
change the case

analog hearth
#

Highly overrated case

weak field
#

bad airflow

#

but. it looks nice

analog hearth
#

bUt It LoOkS gOoD

#

Eh

weak field
#

and honestly the case is the only thing for me that looks> airflow

#

you can just get faster fans, or take off the side panel if it gets too hot

#

aio

grim raptor
#

@weak field hellooo

#

guyyys

arctic jungle
#

get 3600mhz cl16 ram

analog hearth
#

Bruh all that for £1200? That’s awesome

arctic jungle
#

u need 3600 mhz cl16 ram, and buy an mp34

#

instead of that crucial drive

#

@grim raptor

#

also

#

that psu is weird

but ig go for it

np

zinc marsh
arctic jungle
#

what pricepoint do u wanna make it @zinc marsh

#

I can do a couple things

#

@zinc marsh what's the budget

zinc marsh
#

take it down to 1200 maybe, I was hoping to hit 1k but it seemed like if I did that I'd be getting rid of something that would be nice down the line.

arctic jungle
#

no

#

that's an overpriced motherboard

#

dw i gotcha

zinc marsh
#

I understand that but I need the wifi and a lot of the other ones look kinda gross

little osprey
#

b550-f not only is it overpriced it has garbo vrms

#

also p300a stock config is iffy

zinc marsh
#

ah

little osprey
#

just go p360a

arctic jungle
#

chill i gotcha

#

dw

zinc marsh
#

lol I'm not worrying

#

thanks though

arctic jungle
#

mk normally it would be 1200 but the wifi mobo made it a bit more expensive...

zinc marsh
#

Also, no need to go over like a 500 gb nvme ssd. I have a few 1tb drives but I want to try nvme

arctic jungle
#

1220

#

Also, no need to go over like a 500 gb nvme ssd. I have a few 1tb drives but I want to try nvme
@zinc marsh you can add ur drives

zinc marsh
#

I know, I just want nvme for the faster speeds

arctic jungle
#

ofc

zinc marsh
#

I dont currently have one as my prebuilt doest support it

arctic jungle
#

ew

#

this is why u don't buy prebuilts

zinc marsh
#

lol it was like 4 years ago I didnt know how to build a pc then give me a break

arctic jungle
#

they would use the cheapest ram and mobo possible to up the spec of cpu and gpu to make it look comparable

zinc marsh
#

it was also a christmas gift

#

I know, it literally only has 2 ram slots

#

the only m.2 in there is being used for wifi

#

I actually could potentially use the wifi card that is in there for my new pc instead of going a wifi mobo but it's like chained in there

arctic jungle
#

omg go away

#

@warm nova he's a banned one back from the dead -_-

zinc marsh
#

do you recommend I go a wifi mobo or try to reuse the m.2 wifi in my current prebuilt?

weak field
#

you could use it again if nothing wrong with it

#

or you could clear up space and pay the extra 20-30$ to get a wifi mobo

grim raptor
#

hey guys

#

a question about ram

#

should i stick to 3200 or 3600

arctic jungle
#

why

#

do you just completely ignore what I said

grim raptor
#

oh wait a sec

arctic jungle
#

bruh

#

I litterally made u a pcpp to buy

grim raptor
#

Jolly-BEXToday at 2:00 PM
speed and CAS latency is an inaccurate metric for performance, latency measured in ns is more real world but still not great.
tCL/(effective transfer rate/2000)
16/(3200/2000)=10ns
18/(3600/2000)=10ns

So while the frequency (cycles/second) is higher with 3600 MT/s, the number of cycles between sending a column address to the memory and the beginning of the data in response also takes longer. The real world impact of this also depends highly on application: on average I'd assume the 3600 Cl18 has marginally better performance at XMP due to bandwith scaling being more common but when you're not looking to overclock either one of those kits because they will just go poo poo

#

look what they told me

arctic jungle
#

ok

#

listen

#

3200 mhz cl16 = 3600mhz cl18

#

but

#

3200 mhz cl16 < 3600mhz cl16

#

understand?

#

3600mhz cl16 has a latency of 8.89

#

@grim raptor buy the lsit I made you.

and all the cores and threads of the inhouse cou

#

cpu

latent jasper
#

im saying what should my budget need to be?

#

to beat the xsx

weak field
#

like 850 you could get away with, if you go used and even then you might not be able to get 60fps 4k maybe only 30-40ish

violet harness
#

650$

#

Can’t beat the xsx bc no 4K

#

But you could get like 120fps 1080

#

And tbh I would rather have more FPS than 4K

^^

violet harness
#

4K isn’t even worth in my opinion

balmy patio

it's just a nice thing to look at

As you’d think

I can barely tell the difference between 1440p lol

Nothings wrong with 1080p still lol

Says the max gpu for case is 315 with front fan mounted but I’m using ml120 so not sure if it would not work

fading kiln
#

asus tuf 3080 is 300mm

eager flower
#

Might be better not to risk it

#

If it’s that close imo I wouldn’t

junior thunder
#

Maybe if i put the fan at the bottom of the front panel it would work but maybe wouldnt be the best for airflow🤷‍♀️

Ryzen owners, what motherboard do you recommend? I just bought a 3600X and am looking to overclock and eventually go to a 5th gen cpu.

id go with a x570

I can't find a good quality one that isn't under $170

latent storm
#

@latent storm yes
@whole harbor alright and im getting an nzxt kraken x53, should i get more of the same fans that come with that or should i just go noctua?

stoic island
#

Something like a B550 Aorus Elite ax at 150$

whole harbor
#

Save $300

stoic island

maybe

latent storm

wow i wish i could get an itx b550 board for 150

i just want a pc peepoSadSip

weak field
#

build one

stoic island
#

hm?

whole harbor
#

someone told me not to because am4 is getting trashed

latent storm
#

get a used card from ebay, dont give the scalpers the satisfaction of making money

whole harbor
#

Or sumething

#

And wait a couple years

#

And double the cash

#

And get a god pc

#

Cant wait till 2080 tis cost $100 in 10 years

#

LUL

weak field
#

yeah but the min specs for games by then is gonna be like a 4090ti super sli xc ultra

stoic island
#

always wait when you can

latent storm
#

i have a d in government

stoic island
#

if you dont need pc for 2 years, why build one

celest bison
#

first build, any feedback/suggestions? probably going to buy my parts by the end of this month, just to give it some time for some possible price drops (CPU isnt at normal price rn) and for the Gigabyte GTX 1660 Super to hopefully get in stock (cheaper + better cooling?). trying not to go over $1100. wireless adapter is because it's not possible for me to route an ethernet cable to my room. 600W PSU is for possible upgrades, but would it be better to go with a 500W one and then whenever I do end up needing an upgrade, buying a nicer (semi-modular or full) one?

theres cheaper storage thats nvme

oh cool, yeah i was planning on finding an alternative for windows

whole harbor

Get windows for $5

eager flower

Mr1111 where do you get it for 5-10

stoic island
#

could switch PSU out for EVGA BA

#

hell, it's technically free

#

just don't activate it

eager flower
#

Do the keys work from eBay?

latent storm
#

why has the 3600 gone up so much in price

stoic island
#

you can use it normally without a key

celest bison
#

only problem with a 3070 is that its gonna take me forever to get ahold of one

stoic island
#

@eager flower I'm 2 for 2 with ebay <5$ win10 pro keys that are full retail

#

@celest bison only problem is just earlier today a 3070 was in stock for a bit >:P

eager flower
#

Aight I’ll probably buy one my original plan was g2a, thanks

stoic island
#

and if you want guaranteed card, EVGA is still doing that preorder thing

weak field
celest bison

really?

stoic island

might take a few months for the preorder

but 3070s are definitely rolling in stock

i got my 3600 for $175, why is it like $220 now

it was sitting at $170 in the summer

thats what i got it for

thats crazy

im glad i got it when i did

green kestrel

wasn't the 3600 like 150 at some point

latent storm

probably

#

can i get a second opinion on this list i have, i already have all the main parts but i want to go itx for portability reasons

weak field
#

its good

#

whatcha building for?

#

mini itx so you might wanna go with a 120mm aio

zinc marsh

can probably go a bit of a smaller case if you really want portability

theres a exact version

@stoic island can you help @fringe condor with a laptop with good color accuray for undr 800 or a little around it ill help himafter clas but if yo could maybe

@zinc marsh i couldnt find another case that had a psu basement and room for a 240 at the front

All pre built are bad tho

If they're good we'd reccomend them

budget-ish prebuilt is usually the best. Super budget ones are terrible and very pricy ones generally come off with a huge penalty as well

unless used, like Optiplex

I'm thinking about taking my moms old office pc, throwing in a new ssd with a fresh install of windows 10, and then maybe a gpu in it too and sell it, what would it go for?

Well, what should I put in it is a better question

sinful hornet

Well what cpu/ram does it have, also the psu would most likely need an upgrade as they put really cheap psus in those

grim tide

me?

the other guy

rotund river

Lemme grab it

Well I do have a 650w plus from my old rig since I updated it with a 750w, I could maybe use that

$650

weak field
balmy patio

#

ok

balmy patio

the only thing i did to your original list was downgrading the psu from a cv to a bq and upgrading the graphics card to a 1660

grim tide
#

this 👍

balmy patio
#

that case also has a psu shroud, so you can tuck in all the extra cables from a non-modular psu

grim tide
#

alright

rotund river
#

Alright so for my old office pc it has a 300w psu in it

balmy patio
#

you can change it to a evga br, the 500w unit that's non-modular

#

$700

#

Get mine

balmy patio

his budget is 650

Oh lol

and if he had the extra money he could upgrade to a 1660s or a 5600xt

@whole harbor doesn't matter for intel

small osprey
#

Exactly

arctic jungle
#

legit < 1% between 3200mhz and 2933

#

for intel cpus

fossil halo
#

and i think for the price u can get a better radeon card

arctic jungle
#

ew

#

no

#

stop

#

radeon cards are gross

small osprey
#

Can it even use 2933?

arctic jungle
#

ofc it can

radeon is good for budget wdym

small osprey

I thought it was 2666

whole harbor

?? NO

#

o

just make another few hundred appear and get a 3070

ez

Idk much about intel lol

vital warren
#

matx mobo in atx case is fine

fossil halo
#

jsut get an matx case right

#

i mean

#

its not bad it jsut looks yuck

#

unless u have like 32472389472389478234728947238492374892374289 fans in it

vital warren
#

the case on the list has 3 fans looks shouldn't be the priority when on a budget

#

dude will be fine

fossil halo
#

no i know that

#

but

balmy patio
#

jus put a funko pop below the mobo

fossil halo
#

get something like the cooler master mb311l or whatever it is

balmy patio
#

coveres the ugly part

fossil halo
#

it has rgb fans and its actually matx

#

i mean

balmy patio
#

if it even fits

fossil halo
#

dont take my opinion too seriously

#

i have never built a pc

vital warren
#

that case also costs more and has less fans

fossil halo
#

i will soon hopefully

#

i mean but like

#

unless ur doing like big overclocking

#

amd stock cooler and 2 fans is good enough right

#

anyway pls send feedback on my build now

vital warren
#

so you'd choose a case with only 2 intake fans that also costs more over a case with 2 intake 1 exhaust which is less

I have a question about 90 degree 24 pin motherboard adapters. Will it cause any issues? I have a fear sometimes when it comes to adapters since it is just another thing that could go wrong. Any long term issues with them?

would it be a bad idea to get two extra nzxt aer p120 fans to use as exhaust in an itx build, im going to have a 240mm rad at the front, or should i just get four noctua fans?

and replace the aio fans

@cold jewel yes they will explode just like ur psu

#

no

fossil halo
#

but it doesnt look that good and doesnt give that much of a difference

#

pls some one

#

help pls

arctic jungle
#

there's nothign wrong with them

cold jewel
#

So they are fine to use without any worries?

fossil halo

pls someone

#

oh

#

which case is good

#

i just picked the one that looked nice

vital warren
#

the one with 3 fans we talked about earlier

fossil halo
#

link?

fossil halo
#

is there no matx cases

#

with more fans

#

bc i dont want to put matx mobo in atx case

#

or is there something

#

that can make the case look more full

vital warren
#

use your imagination

#

like a pop figure

fossil halo
#

ok

#

but

#

will 2 fans be a problem

#

for cooling

balmy patio
#

will 2 fans be a problem
@fossil halo two fans won't be a problem if you have one as intake, the other as exhaust, and with not much obstacles between them

fossil halo
#

wait thats my build

#

#

@obsidian zinc its pretty good

fossil halo
#

without a case

#

or LMAO

@foggy hazel help plz

u send the wrong link

send the link it generates

Oh wait

fossil halo

not the link in the address bar

Lolll wrong link that was my build

#

yea LMAO

same

#

wait thats my build
@fossil halo

#

@obsidian zinc

#

send this link

balmy patio
#

he did

fossil halo
#

oh ok

balmy patio
#

i would do some edits to vinkus list

fossil halo
#

yea thats really good i think

#

maybe 3600 mhz ram

#

ig

balmy patio
#

are you only going to game on it?

#

cuz a 3100 is better than a 2600 when it comes to gaming/work

#

and the ssd isnt nvme

#

its got a sata III interface

small osprey
#

3200 mhz is enough
@obsidian zinc u should get 3600mhz and team mp34

balmy patio
#

i'll see if i can edit the list

#

and keep it at 700 bucks

fossil halo
#

ig thats good?

small osprey
#

Nonono not that ssd

fossil halo
#

cuz a 3100 is better than a 2600 when it comes to gaming/work
@balmy patio isnt 3100 quad cor ehto

#

core tho*

rotund river
#

Is it worth throwing in either a 750 ti or a 1050 ti to an old office system that has 8 gb ddr3

balmy patio
#

it is

small osprey
#

Get crucial p1

fossil halo
#

and 2600 is 6 core

balmy patio
#

but it's still better with performance, especially while gameing

fossil halo
#

oh

balmy patio
#

and when will you need to have 6 cores on hand?

small osprey
#

Honestly get the 3600

fossil halo
#

tru

balmy patio
#

most games aren't even that cpu intensive

fossil halo
#

nah

small osprey
#

Its not worth getting 2600 now

fossil halo
#

3600 not worth it anymore

balmy patio
#

it stil is

fossil halo
#

its 230$

sinful hornet
#

what

fossil halo
#

at the cheapest place u can find it

balmy patio
#

its been jumping up and down recently

fossil halo
#

yea

balmy patio
#

its normally 195-199

fossil halo
#

more of up

#

no over the summer

#

it became 150

sinful hornet
#

are ther 2000 series processors still in manufacturing?

cursive wharf
#

3100 doesnt really beat a 2600

fossil halo
#

hopefully 5600 soon?

#

non x

cursive wharf
#

3100 has about same gaming perf (higher averages in exchange for worse lows) and worse multi core perf in terms of workstation stuff

fossil halo
#

i think g is integrated graphics?

#

x is a marketing term

cursive wharf
#

For x it depends on CPU. Most is just base clocks

fossil halo
#

i think

#

yea

#

i dont think x is worth it

#

right

cursive wharf
#

however, it is sometimes different hardware

fossil halo
#

idk u guys are big brain

#

i have done way too much research but never built a pc

#

same

#

well

#

14

#

but very recently so

balmy patio
#

and if you can snag a 3300x, somehow, you should go with that, its 20 dollars more than the 3100 and offeres greater performance

#

but thats a big if as of now

sinful hornet
#

15 gang gang

fossil halo
#

lmao

#

one more year

cursive wharf
#

1400x vs 1500x or 3100 vs 3300x. Both are the upgraded variant but differ in actual hardware (different cache amount or core config)
Mostly it's something like 3600 vs 3600x, 3700 vs 3800x, 3900 vs 3900XT, etc. Which is literally just small clock differences

#

who knows if 5600 non x will actually differ in hardware
