@idle compass prob a 3070 or 3080

Moon🚀#3859 has been warned

trade the 2070s for a 3070
closest thing i could find to that price
or use it as a replacement

for 1300 you could fit a 3080 if you really want

balmy patio

vital warren
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9x9hkX this works good enough
idle compass
how much storage is the sweet spot if your going to have games like warzone and modern warfare
vital warren
but if you're playing 1080p i'd just get a 3070
uh
1tb ssd or 500 gb ssd/2tb hdd are normal storage combinations

whats the difference between tempered glass and acrylic

Got a ryzen 3600 xt, b450 pro, and rtx 2070 super. Should I buy a nvme for a boot and a ssd for game storage or just a larger SSD and skip the nvme

how much storage do you need ?

No Idea, its for my 8 year old son, fortnite warzone etc

ryzen 3600 better price to perf the xt has around 4% more perf

id go with a crucial p2 for like 53.99 and then a seagate barracuda for 55

im bouta throw hands with bruce
balmy patio
you could get a 512gb mp34 for games that take a long time to load, and then a 2tb barracuda
whole harbor
Ong
clever kraken
so there is a advantage for run a small nvme for boot then
whole harbor
lol
balmy patio
you could use the nvme to boot and have a few games on it
weak field
or discord so you come talk to us and show us what the build looks like when it’s finished
whole harbor
to help you out as a parent make him quit fortnite LUL
weak field
just a thought tho
balmy patio
the games will load up faster but besides that there’s not that much of an in-game advantage

ok thats what i was reading but didnt know if it would be cost saving to just go the ssd route

@clever kraken if you need to cut corners cut on the cpu take a 3600 its better price perf
you only get 4% increase for 50$
jade dock
yea but wont that be a bottle neck with the 2070s
clever kraken
my daughter is also 8 and she wants a damn piano so the wife said stay under 1200
pine kayak
against the 3600xt

clever kraken
so a 250 gig nvme for boot and a 2 tb ssd for games is the way to go then>

you can go with the kraken z73

@stoic island so as i was saying i bought the Pc tower and it has msi motherboard but no SSD's or anything of the sort... so i grabbed my laptop that doesnt work bc of a broken screen and took the SSD out of it to try to install that into the pc and it doesnt want to work i cant access anything
its getting very frustrating
stoic island
Do you want to keep the data on the laptop SSD?
icy quail
@stoic island does it suck
grim raptor
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/dhLW4d guys its time to buy my first pc any last comments?
icy quail
the td 500 mesh didnt come with an outtake and was out of stock from my end
raw sparrow
not really i would rather delete and start fresh with new clean installs so that way if the previous owner had virus or such there wont be any remince of them
icy quail
but if the temps suck ill take it back and get a mesh when its out
stoic island
@raw sparrow so did you already have a boot drive for the PC?
other than the laptop ssd
@icy quail TD500 mesh gets godly temps without an exhaust fan still lel
raw sparrow
basically it was parts i had to put together bc he had it pulled apart
stoic island
As in, can you boot without the laptop SSD?
raw sparrow
no it doesnt work bc my laptop was a HP laptop and now im on a MSI pc
stoic island
Lemme just lay this out how I understand your situation :
You have a Desktop PC that's fully built, with a drive already in it?
whole harbor
@stoic island is a 1060 6gb new a good price for $140?
stoic island
and you have a laptop that has a SSD that you want to be using?
eh
@whole harbor should be around 1660 non-super perf
so decent.
whole harbor
Its close to the 1650 super
stoic island
@raw sparrow because brand of motherboard doesn't really matter when you're just plugging in a standard 2.5in SSD, unless it's non-standard?
stoic island
eh
it's like a 2060
except no RTX features
so 250$ isn't too appealing
esp used
whole harbor
I mean if ur play comp

stoic island
used 2060 should be around 250$

whole harbor
rate the pc mr111
eager flower
Yes
stoic island
@whole harbor why intel
whole harbor
idk
eager flower
Raid0 and raid1 don’t give a significant speed boost for gaming iirc
tiny oriole
I enjoy raid 0 for things that aren't important
stoic island
Raid 1 is for data protection
it saves a copy on the second drive
so you only have half of the storage
raid 0 just puts everything together
no reason for it
just run it on AHCI or whatever it's called
eager flower
Raid0 though has a higher chance of failure
tiny oriole
I would use raid 1 for my homework folder
eager flower
I thought
stoic island
@tiny oriole raid 1 is for entire drives
either both drives are on raid 1
or nothing is
tiny oriole
I understand that
stoic island
maybe
stoic island
it'll prob save on the second drive as 2 partitions
tiny oriole
I'm pretty sure raid 0 splits the data between two hdd or ssd to make it faster to certain extent
It's been years since I looked this up but I can look it up again to make sure
eager flower
It combines the data I believe
stoic island
@whole harbor spend a bit more, get a bit more.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9xpd9N
eager flower
I thought it used two drives as one, but if one breaks both do
I can be wrong though, probably am
tiny oriole
If one breaks you lose all your data, it's like more speed for more risk type thing
stoic island
afaik there's no speed gain, but oh well
tiny oriole
I'm not trying to be mean or a know it all but..
eager flower
For reading and writing
tiny oriole
I don't really trust that website tbh
tiny oriole
Ok I meant for reading and writing my bad
stoic island
still looking through
tiny oriole
I swear I watched a linus video on it xD
stoic island
@tiny oriole until I find info, what I remembered is that you can only take advantage of higher read/write with large amounts of files, as I don't believe it splits files between drives
tiny oriole
Ok, I will have to look into it again myself someday
cursive wharf
@stoic island no, I recommended 2600 for multi core purposes as it still wins by a little bit iirc (vs 3100)
stoic island
@cursive wharf alright that's fine
but the man was telling me you were recommending a 3400g
which is... interesting
An argument can definitely be made for 2600 over 3100, but imo most people don't need extra cores, but single thread perf.
cursive wharf
totally, I mean troubleshooting right?
stoic island
@cursive wharf by the way, can ya tell us about raid0 perf with file transfers and actual usage?
works
cursive wharf
nope, know not much about raid

@stoic island i dealt with the literally most difficult guy last night while making him a list.
He didn't seem to understand that not every part is sold in every country so he was adding things for 1 of his currency

Like he added a $1500 dollar laptop for 1 of his currency, and it was because they didn't sell it in his country
His budget was $2500 USD, and he was easily reaching $5-$6k after I gave him the list
cyan saffron
does anyone have info of when x570 boards with usb type c headers will launch? I plan on building into a h210i with a 5600x but there are no boards with that header

Like almost every x570 has it

i mean headers for front io not the rear io

B550i gaming edge wifi, ROG Strix B550-I Gaming, B550 Phantom Gaming-ITX
sharp tundra
Why not b550?
stoic island
@cyan saffron Lemme ask you this, what do you think you gain from x570 over B550?
sharp tundra
Beside a couple minor features there's no difference
stoic island
because there is some misconception that x570 just means better performance than b550
sharp tundra
X570 and b550
timber swallow
and they are all uncompatible
sharp tundra
They're the only boards that support 5k series
timber swallow
it's not compatible according to this
cyan saffron
well to be honest i dont really have decided to go for x570 i just assumed that it would be in my better interest for longevity to go for 570 to have pci e 4 in the optic of upgrading
sharp tundra
It also doesn't help that the sight doesn't recognize it either
cyan saffron
there is also x470 that i havent heard much about
sharp tundra
well to be honest i dont really have decided to go for x570 i just assumed that it would be in my better interest for longevity to go for 570 to have pci e 4 in the optic of upgrading
@cyan saffron some b550 boards have pcie4
sharp tundra
And not all x570 boards have pcie4 either
cyan saffron

Hello room... sorry for interrupting... question for you... I just put together a PC today... and the ASUS Mainboard had an additional spot that I could plug into to get more usb3's in the back. The chasse had one that I plugged in, which is where I noticed a second plug for usb3 on the mainboard. But I go to Newegg and all the expansion usb3 cards are PCIe. How can I find one to use this plug on my ASUS Mainboard?
stoic island
All B550 boards have PCIe 4.0 on first PCIe slot and first M.2 slots @cyan saffron
@flat pollen Can you give us the model of the mainboard?
sharp tundra
@cyan saffron also, since your getting an mitx board it won't matter if the other slots are pcie4 anyways cause they don't exist
stoic island
I'm trying to understand what you want, do you want to use an internal usb header, to power a usb hub on rear io?
sharp tundra
No he wants a header for front io
stoic island
this is making me believe they're talking about internal USB headers
flat pollen
I'm trying to understand what you want, do you want to use an internal usb header, to power a usb hub on rear io?
@stoic island so you know how the chasse has 2 usb3 slots as part of the chasse? And you have to plug a cable attached to teh chasse to the mainboard so those usb3 plugs work? Well there's a second spot on the main board for more usb3... and I'd like to use it... but don't know the hardware to do it
sharp tundra
Its spelt chassis btw
timber swallow
my pc with mouse and speakers totals to $1600 WITHOUT using HONEY the free browser extension that gives u free money!
flat pollen

stoic island

little osprey
ok so what can i build for like
flat pollen
this will be a dream to produce on
little osprey
500-700 $
timber swallow
uh
little osprey
well actually i do know how to build a pc i just dunno what parts to get..

idk im not good at this
cyan saffron
and a 2060
little osprey
oh
cyan saffron
stock cooler
stoic island
@flat pollen I'm looking for actual options for you, but something like this does exist. Just to warn you, what you have is an extra 19pin usb 3.0 header, not a 20pin usb 3.1 header, which a good amount of the cards I'm seeing use.

u can afford a 2060 pc for 600??
flat pollen
well actually i do know how to build a pc i just dunno what parts to get..
@little osprey newegg's pc builder is pretty helpful... not fool proof... but I used it.

(information taken from the Mobo mastersheet)
little osprey
im not getting any used parts
dont trust it
used unboxed is ok but if its actually been used then no
cyan saffron
just take the parts from companies that the warranty transfers from one owner to another
little osprey
1 scam likely
2 lower lifespan
sharp tundra
@stoic island I believe all USB c's are 3.1
cyan saffron
like evga i tthink
sharp tundra
And 3.2

sharp tundra
Damn aurocorrect

nomad could you help me?
sharp tundra
With

@flat pollen this looks more like something you'll want.

with what i should build for ~600$
stoic island
little osprey
i currently have a geforce 9500 gt, i3 2nd gen, 2gb ram annnd its kinda slow

@stoic island THATS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT!!! Thank you. Give this man a raise!!!
stoic island
:)
sharp tundra
He got you covered
little osprey
pentium 1 integrated grophics 0.25gb ram
sharp tundra
What is that?
little osprey
u has 600$ list?
stoic island
little osprey
oh
sharp tundra
Nah, get them a 3070
little osprey
wow 1650!
stoic island
1650 super*
little osprey
that must be powerful
stoic island
Super makes a difference in performance over non-super, they're different chips.
It's a nice budget GPU.
sharp tundra
Not exactly the word I would use
little osprey
i wouldve been happy with a 780 lol
yeah i know what super means
also alot of people uhhh how do i say this
stoic island
I wouldn't call it "powerful" compared to yaknow, the 3080s that exist today, but it's quite usable.
little osprey
overlook other things

Amelia The Marshmellow#4641 has been warned
little osprey
sorry
stoic island
bad words are bad
sharp tundra
Bad you
little osprey
alot of builds seem to focus too heavily on the gpu
sharp tundra
Ur bad for bad word usage
stoic island
uhh
little osprey
and get a crappy cpu or psu and stuff yk
sharp tundra
Bitwit tries to focus about 50% of budget on gpu
stoic island
I mean
this list is decent, half the budget is spent on the GPU:

little osprey
amd im not rlly looking for the best pc on earth like a 3070 or anything
stoic island
issa example
little osprey
i know
stoic island
it makes sense to focus on the GPU for gaming.
