oh
Gpu is where like 95% of your gaming power comes from
what is the 1660 like?
Worse than 1650s
Hello All :)
I'm looking at building my own pc for the first time, but extremely intimidated.
I've been researching for a good minute, and have come up with a list of parts.
Is it okay to share here, or is another locations better? Also i'm new here.
Gpu is where like 95% of your gaming power comes from
@sharp tundra i know but i feel like putting just a tiny bit more on the other parts makes for a more stable and longer lasting pc yk, not cheaping out on the psu, getting an ssd, getting a good cpu
watch something like this for a sense for FPS @little osprey
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R6SvxdN-4ew
Get your favorite games cheaper on https://gvo.deals/BenchmarkTests
Use code: "BMT" to get a 3% off
Ryzen 3 3100 paired with GTX 1650 Super 4GB test in 27 recent games at full HD 1080p, check the full list of tested games below.
Buy a similar build with 8GB RAM here https://...
well, I'd call it a 60fps high settings GPU
thats good
watch that vid for benchmarks for whatever game you play
will i be able to run half life 2?
HL2 is... quite old
@sharp tundra i know but i feel like putting just a tiny bit more on the other parts makes for a more stable and longer lasting pc yk, not cheaping out on the psu, getting an ssd, getting a good cpu
@little osprey yeah, the longevity of your pc is a big concern, but upgrades can always be made later, its much easier to upgrade a pc than it is to build one
But don't cheap out on a psu ever
80+ cert minimum
And always make sure you have nuf wattage
well i want my pc to last atleast 8 or 9 years so
8-9 years with a 1650s?
my current pc bas lasted 9 years, 9500 gt, i3 2nd gen, 2gb ram
I mean, you'll be long behind the game if your waiting that long
That is not a good pc bro
still clean and everything though
2gb of ram, makes me wanna hurl
it is a good pc, i clean it oftern and i have a nice setup
and it plays games well like half life 1, gta san andreas, even minecraft..just about
720p, medium-high, ~70fps
Well, that $600 pc mr1111 gave you will be 1000ร better than your current
i know thats why im upgrading
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/WqRpHz Hey, I'm trying to upgrade my system to something that can play witcher 3 and RE7 at 1440p 144fps (I'm fine with not using max settings, I prefer high instead of max settings if that makes the game hit 144), any suggestions?
ill keep my old pc though, give it to my little brother :)
@mossy heart Oh nice team dark pros?
Ur little brother will be ungrateful, and I wouldn't blame him
really nice kit of ram
Lol
and my old old pc, (has a nvidia 3, 26mb ram) i still use for things like, web browsing, work ect
@stoic island yeah i got them on some deal a while back, i got interested bcuz of latency
no he will be happy, he's always wanted to play games on pc
and b die overclocking capabilities :D
I don't think you get what I'm saying
tuning will be fun, anyways
i dont get what your saying no
Your machine can't "game" at today's standards
i know
@mossy heart The primary concern is the GPU, I'd get a 3070 or 3080 for 1440p144hz.
any game past 2004 kills my pc
secondary, is CPU, and maybe motherboard.
Amd im sure your brother wants to be playing snake and pong in 2020
um
If you want to jump on the real nice 5600x hype train, a B550 board is gonna be nice, but a 3600(x)(t) will be a good upgrade if you don't want to upgrade motherboard.
my pc is more than capable of playing snake, nomad
i still have fun today on games like minecraft, csgo, war thunder
(csgo gets 80fps at 720p low and war thunder gets 80-90fps at 1080p low)
Yea I've been looking at the 3070, so hopefully by the end of this year or next year I can pick one up when stock is stable
better than my old pc that struggles to run half life
@mossy heart there's also the "quality of life" upgrade of either getting a NVMe SSD for more games you can put on a SSD, or a HDD to offload stuff so you can get more space for games on the SSD.
i dont get whats the hype over an ssd
the PSU is solid, case is good enough, and MX500 decent enough.
what does ssd do?
when using dual monitors what part of the pc is being used most
GPU
It's actually possible
oh
also overall system responsiveness over HDD
hmmmm
(And instead of waiting 5 minutes to load into rust, you load in a minute)
ok will a 1650 super and a 3 3100 be ok for dual monitors
i seem to have good responsiveness with hdd though
Well, if you're not trying to game on both monitors, it'll be fine.
ok will a 1650 super and a 3 3100 be ok for dual monitors
@rough escarp very likely yes
it'll struggle running 2 games because, logic.
depends, newer games maybe
one is game and the other is what ever else
yea
yeah itl be fine then
ok
like discord nd stuff, it won't hit it too hard.
turn off hardware accel in discord
ok
Thing is, discord doesn't affect my fps on this 4c8t laptop with iGPU, or my desktop with 8c16t with good GPU.
Yeah, but you can't do like ANYTHING else with that tho, you can't even watch quick YouTube tutorial or something without closing the game
this is half life 2 reccomended specs
i have more than that
and would you know, it runs at ~45fps at 1080p max settings
theres a reason why 2 cores, 1 for youtube or wahtever, 1 for the other game
genius
no more slowing down ur pc when watching youtube at the same time
i can even have 2 windows open!
works for me, just about and thats why im ๐ upgrading ๐
Yeah, you definitely need this upgrade, you'll begin to see why more cores are necessary when you get the other 4 attached with your new pc
oh
4 cores!
wow
wait @sharp tundra will i be able to get like 60fps on war thunder and csgo?
with say.. a 1650
Is windows 10 required when you build a pc
No, but most games and apps use windows 10 so if you don't have it, you'll be limited
Appreciate it
@normal osprey do remember, you can download, install, and use most of windows 10 without buying a key.
Esports titles aren't very demanding, so you could honestly get csgo at 4k 120fps
now im just exited asf
yeah
csgo is a very good optimized game
not too cpu or gpu intensive
theres really no difference between a 1660ti and a 3090
@balmy patio i summon you
@stoic island im not sure if its a standard 2.5 SSD but when i connect them systems arent there and it says turn off and resart
What can i do to get it too boot
woah
nomad, ur pc sounds good, 5600 xt is good right?
isnt that like just below a 1660 ti?
or somin like that
@stoic island so I have a ryzen 7 2700x I don't stream or do any rendering or editing, just gaming. Should I see if my friend wants to trade his ryzen 5 3600 cause he does do some streaming and stuff sometimes?
yeah i think thats aa good trade
isnt that like just below a 1660 ti?
@little osprey almost equivalent to a rtx 2060
if u dont stream or anything a 5 3600 is good for gaming
I should be building my first ever gaming PC on Christmas. Here are specs for everyone who actually cares:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600XT
GPU: Asus TUF Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Super
RAM: Team T-FORCE 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHZ CL16
MoBo: Gigabyte B450M D3SH
Storage: Team 512GB SSD
PSU: EVGA BR 600W 80+ Bronze
Case: NZXT H510
His gpu is fine
case, motherboard, and cpu are definently good
Psu*
I will upgrade the drive in the future but I don't wanna have my dad spend anymore.
IN MY opinion what i would do is go for a bit better storage and psu and a bit lower on the cpu, get a 3600x or 3600
You could save some money by just getting a 3600
yea and then u can upgrade ur storage
Believe it or not, 3600XT is cheaper than 3600X on Amazon RN.
The xt isn't really that performance gifting for the difference in cost
oh nvm
Yep, not sure why it is cheaper.
welp its better so why not lol
Yeah 3 extra FPS.
Get a r5 3600 if your just gaming
yes
Or 3600x
syug
its cheaper on amazon than a 3600 for some reason
I mean, would i be gaining or losing amything
Besides those 2 cores I won't be using most likely
I think the PSU will be fine, I haven't heard anything bad about it like the cheaper 500-550w 80+ PSU's.
Like $45 ones.
I have a 512b hard drive and I'm trying to transfer my data into a 4096b solid state drive. An error message keeps popping up on my cloning software because I don't think this action is possible. Any recommendations on how to fix this?
nomad you have alot of headroom in ur build

nate i agree with amelia for the psu
Okay, I just know that the 3600 has higher clock speeds than the 2700xand I don't need 8 cores so I figured I'd see if the trade would be worth it
Ok
why the kermitvade lmaoo

but why lmaooo
im but a humble man
So will the EVGA BR burn my house down or is it just like efficiency?
with dark secrets
its not the evga brand is the issue
its the efficiency rating
Hey ever since I installed my new gpu when ever I put more stress on the gpu such as increasing the resolution from 1080p to 4k or putting the game at max graphics settings my pc black screens and crashes and the only way I can restart it is by turning the psu switch off then on does anybody have any suggestions on what I can do?
turn it down from 4k
and its running good on those res?
Don't run 4k
Well I don't wanna spend that much more on a PC that is the problem.
Simple solution
like not 6fps
4k naturally has a heavier load on graphics and cpu
It runs fine on 1080p
its going to commit die if it cant handle it
ok your problem is solved lol
and i will commit cry if it commits die
4k maybe be using more wattage too that your psu can't handle
But my gpu should handle 4k though should it not the card is an rx 5700xt
july ima commit kermitcide
Oh a 5700xt?
It runs fine on 1080p
@little osprey Yeah that i3 might be the problem bud.
The i3 is a joke
cap
Yeah good
Provably your psu saving its life for using whats not there
I have a 9700f
lolol

What about GPU, your system probably can't handle it anyway.
@stoic island so i got into the bios but its not showing SSD
do you rreally have a3090?
Provably your psu saving its life for using whats not there
@sharp tundra actually yeah now that I think about the psu is 100 percent the problem
Does it show anything in the SSD's slot?
do you rreally have a3090?
@idle hawk i wish
No
whats ur gpu
What GPU do you have?
5700xt
ahh ok so graphics driver it is then
Not bad but I don't think it is that good for 4k.
1440p tho.
But I don't think it should be crashing.
I guess I'll have to wait till amd comes out with a driver update
๐
in my opinion i feel like 4k is useless
but Mr1111 brought up a good point
is ur SSD slowing down
I mean it looks good but FPS will go wayy down.
@stoic island no its not showing up

I like playing game campaigns at 4k even if it's at 60fps
650w
guy thats why i also asked about the ssd
it could definitely be the psu
lol

Especially if ita actually a Chinese psu
Corsair 650w
sounds like a psu not providing enough wattage issue
do you know the rating?
/efficiency
Thats what I said earlier
I think it is a little low for those specs but not that low.
All corsair psu's are 80+
If anyone is wondering my nn is a joke I don't have a Chinese psu and don't have an i3 paired with a 3090
change it bro lol

@stoic island what should i do
\dsfjskdjflksf
i mean, i dont know much about psu limiting crashes, but if its the psu switch that makes it work sounds like psu issue to me
I don't think it is the PSU causing the crash, probably a driver error.
it nn is like saying ur going to the gym and you havea quarter of a 6 pack and holding 2 big macs at the same time and chugging muscle powder lmaoooo jk
@raw sparrow well, we don't know if the drive is dead or not
change the slots around
quarter
if nothing, maybe the drive is just dead or incompatible
I found this nice PSU for $32 of AliExpress should I get it?
Is it better than the EVGA BR
speak of the devil lmao
Thats where it comes from
@weak field my statement relates to a i3 560 and a rtx 3090
How can i guarentee a compatible SSD?
wait
hey guys
tomorrow is friday the 13th
oh god
And its 2020 aswell
swahg level 100
bruh lol
Well what psu do you recommend then?
Corsair
The one from AliExpress
850w for future proofing MY OPINION
Oh yeah, AliE
Ok ill get a 450w corsair @sharp tundra
oof
:
NO\
Lol
ALIEXPRESS PSU
linus did a ali express build
I know
the psu he bought didnt even work

I watched it
And an all wish build
O
ok ok mr.vader no more spamming bro lol
Should I get the amazon PSU I found at the bottom of page 85?
850w for future proofing MY OPINION
@idle hawk do you think I could get away with a 750w
Will it be better than my laptops power brick?
@idle hawk do you think I could get away with a 750w
@little osprey I do
750w should be fine.
you can but to be safe just look around for prices with 850 and 750 and compare prices to see which one is better
Ye
me i have a 1300w
What efficiency rating should I get
always push for gold but try for plat
Not sure what my power brick is what ever that is
I think power brick is 80+ gold
it was 300
bomb?
Never heard of someone buying a plat lol
nope
yes rico kaboom
i hada xfx plat 1000
bronze all the wayyyy
better efficiency,
Get this one
mine is a seasonic 1300w gold
@idle hawk you got a 1300w psu and didn't at least get 80+ plat?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xLgWFG how good, or bad is this psu
Get this one
@drifting garnet you finna buy a bomb
lol
cause 1300w plat is like 500 lmaoo
But you'll never have to worry about your psu going boom
They were complaining about me wanting a 80+ Bronze so maybe
IDK
Probably platinum or gold
mine wont go boom cause ill never hit 1300 watts
from the plug as a the whole system im hitting 700w
fallen which 3070 are you using
zotac OC
Indeed
Until I get a new psu should I just undervolt my gpu to stay safe
how do you like it
Until I get a new psu should I just undervolt my gpu to stay safe
@little osprey for now yes
ill let you know in a month when I put it in a build
oof
I should take my parts out of my name for now lmao
lololol
i get asked 3 times a day about my parts lmao
I just put them in to flex i had em, didnt realize people would ask abnout them
yea no one bothers with me i pretty much broke nomad at this point
right @sharp tundra
You were giving me a rtx 3080 I heard?
Schweet
Im gonna run benchmarks on ACO rn
nonono a 680ti
In this video we'll be building an invisible PC! Also, regarding KiwiCo, visit http://www.kiwico.com/diyperks for 20% off EVERYTHING or use code DIYPERKS. Hurry, it's valid until the 30th of September!
This build is sleek, stylish, and elegant - a real masterpiece!
Times...
this is so cool
if you crash we are gonna write F in the chat
Okay okay, atleast get me a 2080ti
do you think im made of money
Where is power button
I mean
guys
i retract my statement
fun
lmaooo
just a table
beer pong it is
no
ssd frisbee
yikes
20min 68max
HDD Frisbee
is that valhalla?
Odyssey
ล
Im getting valhalla for hanukkah I think
PSU frisbee
psu dodgeball!
Bruh, I've never been invited to a LAN party๐ช
yeah. sounds fun
Lol yes
XL ATX Case Dodgeball
Can someone help me out
I see a EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Hydro Copper Gaming for sale but it's a watercooled card and I was wondering what it would take to do that
Imma build an E-atx PC for future LAN parties
I see a EVGA GeForce RTX 2080 Ti FTW3 Ultra Hydro Copper Gaming for sale but it's a watercooled card and I was wondering what it would take to do that
@left shore does it come as an aio?
Or just the waterblock
Waterblock
Oh, I wouldn't suggest unless you have time, money, and knowledge
But it's only 389
No for the GPU
Fax
It might be 389 for just the waterblock
Nah it says for the card
Bro, no 2080ti is ever gonna be sold for 389
Maybe
cuz you can just buy a 3070 and get more performance
But at than point they're just ripping themselves off
Probably since it's a Watercooled card too
The FE 2080ti is $1200
but do you have to watercool it?
And 3rd party is usually more
is it me or that looks like only the water block not the card
hiiii
but it looks like it needs a custom loop \
Either someone doesn't know what they got, or they described it wrong
id pm
It went up to 475
It might be auction
O
im not crazy ur crazy
im not sure im losing my mind

Lord kermit
Lol when I pull the 24 pin out of the mobo to remove the psu a standoff screw gets ripped out of the mobo standoff
@stoic island
so my monitor only works wiht 1x4 kit
or does it NOT turn off
if i add more ram it just says power save mode
and turns off
So rn im using 4 gigs of ram
What do you have
a 2009 dell monitor
Desktop and a separate monitor, or an all-in-one monitor thing?
i picked up earlier today
What chipset is your motherboard
ryzen 5 3400g
@wild karma Okay, so let's figure out what you have, is the PC separate from the monitor?
did they guy with the bios probelm get it fixed?
300, 400, or 500 series chipset
yes
I'm guessing yes
its seperate
okay
What motherboard and specific kit of ram are you trying?
@sinful hornet the guy flashing bios or
msi b450m pro-vdh
ye him
dif chat
and a gskil 2x4 kit and a viper 2x4 kit
What ram kit?
scrolled up for a bit couldnt find anything
cpu memory chat
Okay, @wild karma you're trying just 2 sticks of g.skill/viper in slots 2 and 4 correct?
So single stick in slot 2 works?
What ram slots are you putting the sticks in
So wait is that card legit or?
Or did you pull a verge and put them right next to each other
fun
I didnt put them right next to eachother
with every stick?
yes
slot 2 and 4 from the left?
(each stick, each channel tested)
every stick works b2
and when I turn on my monitor it says to put it in a2 for better compatibiity but it doesnt work in a2
@wild karma and what do debug LEDs say if you try stick a2
The intel 4004 is amazing for that game @drifting garnet
if I were to try a2 it might not work again
alright tell me
I canโt tell
look closer >:D
CPU
Ffs
The intel 4004 is amazing for that game @drifting garnet
@little osprey i just looked that up and im dying
@wild karma try re-seating your CPU, and checking if there are any damages to any pins
maybe it's just bad contact that's not making channels work
Ok will be a bit.
A 16 pin CPU LOL ๐คฃ๐คฃ
@little osprey i just looked that up and im dying
@drifting garnet it looks like one of those old hex bugs
Yes, I think i still have my hex bugs from like 8 years ago when I was like 6
@stoic island the cpu needs to cool down first.
@stoic island the cpu needs to cool down first.
@wild karma cool down?
Are you even using a cooler
@little osprey yea let it cool before taking it out of the socket lol
If I was to sell my 2070 XC Ultra how much would I be able to get
maybe bad contact on one of the pins
I don't have the box
300-350 I'd say
hai
on the high end
Would thermal paste need to be reapplies if it was put on today.
no?
What if bent pin @stoic island lol
I'm buying mine for 336 rn
then we know what the issue was
i need someone to make me a build for around 1,000-1,200$
its good for months at a time autumn
@wild karma eh, stock cooler, you don't really have to
I personally would with aftermarket coolers when I remount
but stock is meh
unless your ocing a ryzen 1 0.0001 at 10.0ghz then you need to like every week
Can I send pick in his chat?
no
no scam
I must leave soon
You can pick one of those up for 30 bucks
None of the pins look bent.
@little osprey get hecced
https://www.amazon.com/DEEPCOOL-GAMMAXX400V2-Cooler-Heatpipes-Compatible/dp/B081DH9RRJ/
:/
@wild karma alright, put it back in, make sure it goes in correctly
HE JUST ABSOLUTELY HECCED HIM
I like the chonkieness of tower coolers
the point isn't that
can someone make me a build for 1-1.2k usd?
might need to visit a psych ward
The point is Gammaxx 400 > Hyper 212
@polar python
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Mr1111/saved/DvDv3C
prob want to edit bottom list to look a bit better
or just use top list
ty
Here ya go
๐ณ๐ณ๐ณ๐ณ
That wouldn't affect it, would it?
magbe
Thats the only spot
depends what pin it is
clean off anything you see
And it doesn't look that major
blow on it
on it
bad contact is my guess since it CAN post
dont blow it
ur using apu?
Yes
oh then u should b fine
do you guys know of any 5.25 inch ODDs that have micro and normal sd readers
@stoic island What were the sennheiser headphones youve been posting?
pc37x/38x
Thanks
So im back and I have a budget of 2k. I need a pc for Art and a little gaming
Need some pro help xd
Ping me with a build please
2k usd?
@vital warren
Yea
what type of art? video editing and stuff
Like manga making
@vital warren for art
@reef moss prebuilt?
Ok
and my budget is 2k and or just under 2k
Ok
Ping me whenever bc I have notifications off
@vital warren 2k art, editing, gaming pc
i linked a 1500 for a start
ok
whatever fits your budget
Not mine
LUL
im broke
@vital warren
Would this be good for art
Editing etc
LUL
I think he is workin on one right now
nope
Lol
@foggy hazel https://pcpartpicker.com/list/MnhDqp
Would u say this could work for art/video editing
On a 2k budget
@reef moss this should be good but try to get it checked by a person with the techie role, @vital warren , @arctic jungle or @stoic island
Id say the 3900x is a good choice for art design due to the cores
LUL 12
hey people I plan on building an ITX format gaming pc. Can someone look at my build and give me some feedback to it? I am still unsure about my cpu cooler, ram and mobo. GPU will hopefully be an rx6800
https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/kVnZwz
around 1500-1750 cad
Mk
still unsure about stuff
of course i wont pay scalper prices
i'd like to have a mobo that has a ucb-c header for my front io usb c
well my main goal is a 5600x and an rx6800
budget is flexible
and I already have the case
this build is much more complicated to plan than my previous one its crazy
Okay this may be a dumb question but if i put a 3600xt onto a msi mag b550 motherboard will i have to do a bios update?
wheres card?
what
nvm
yeah the card is still not out
k
Okay this may be a dumb question but if i put a 3600xt onto a msi mag b550 motherboard will i have to do a bios update?
@remote junco
no
thank you
no problem
Thank ya!
@cyan saffron https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/3w2Q68
Perhaps this?
The ASRock wouldn't be my first go to but it has connector for front panel USB-C
change the 500gb ssd to something cheaper
piece*
that's way overpriced
those might not fit
It's PCI gen 4
large cpu coolers on ITX boards with corsair ram
the asrock is kinda steep in price. Theres an msi b550 that has a usb c connector that i found too
yikes
Hence why the steep price for the 500gb
get an aio
and yeah the ram doesnt need to be rgb. I'll probably go for an all black build
either 120mm for the back or 240mm at the front
ah yeah gen 4 ssd ill skip on that for now i think
you had RGB ram in your other pcpartpicker build. I just added another RGB. But the mobo may not be bad. And yea a 500gb non 4.0 is like $70
does a 240 aio in the front will fit with the tubes facing down?
depending on the lenght of the gpu too
true
and lenght of the tubes
also i would NOT recommend large cpu coolers for ITX
hence why i also think about going air cooling
why not large coolers? risks of bending the board?
especially since 120mm aios and 240mm aios are cheap
It's PCI gen 4
@waxen fiber
justify your use of gen4 ssd
Personally you could leave the RGB ram and go an AIO if you want RGB
no, because of clearance issues in smaller boards
@ebon wing No reason whatsoever. It fit under budget
i thought about the arctic liquid freeeze 2 or a name like that
the underdog of the crew
No you don't. If you're a personal who likes to have the "cutting edge" you may want it though
well one I finish my masters degree and get a job
gen 4 are priced on crack
Amongst the gen 4s the pricing on the sabrent rocket was reasonable. And I agree
for a full time editor I would say If he saves like 1-7 seconds it's worth it for him
Is the 6800xt gonna need gen 4 for their whatcha call it
direct storage or something
have to have a cpu that can move data that fast to make it worth it
as we seen 3000 running on pcie gen 3 and gen 4 didnt made a huge difference so I expect that again on RDNA2
the 6800xt wont either because than intel cpu users couldnt use it or buy one
why?
The build I'm making rn is 5900x, 64gb of ram, and a 6800xt when they come out. This is supposed to be like my just no budget buy what I want so I'm getting a 4.0 boot drive.
no gen4 on intel mobos yet
They say next gen will have it tho?
@narrow rose should I get a i3-9100f or 3100 for gaming in my $600 build
z490 mobos do have gen4 lanes
@waxen fiber it could only be able to use that infinity memory share magic with gen4 though
@whole harbor can you stretch it to a 3200g?
the memory sharing thing on amd is only on gen 4?
Yeah I really wanted to be able to see what AMDs game is
or i did not understand
It is
@narrow rose how much is that
I really hate what did amd did
5000 series processors with 6000 series GPUs
@whole harbor get a 3100
that ryzen cpu and gpu will share all its memory
@whole harbor around $99
intel should also just do that
yeah I guess the 3100 is a little better than the 3200g
is the 3100 better than the 9100f @narrow rose
?
i dont think it is
so i might get a 9100f
I wont be recommending u to buy a PS5 but if u r "just gaming" then go for it
Y'all think that 6800xt with the 5900x will do alright running Solidworks occasionally. I'm going to university for engineering and some of my classes require it.
9100f is about the same as the 3100
Cpu user benchmark says
cpu user benchmark is trash
user benchmarks is usually a liar
biased
I say stick with the 3100
ok
I actually really like that list you sent
Whats better the 7700 or the 3100?
I guess the 3100 but not by much
and I would give it to the 7700k over the 3100 if its OC-ed
My old laptop had a 1060m and 7700
It was trash
Now im upgrading
And itll be a lil better
so i can get 144hz
Also the 1060 6gb u can usually find on ebay new for like $140
Even cheaper someyimes
it would be nice if you could squeeze a 1660super into the budget or a 5600xt
for that 144hz the 1060 6gb is going to struggle
lol true not in valorant
cause i use 1600x900
low settings
Does oc on the 1660 super make much a different
not really
like thats at $661
that case is what I recommend usually as a good airflow cheap case
Dont get seasonic
Question, how big of a difference is there between 1920 and 2560 resolution, cause I've been looking at monitors and theres a bunch of 1920 ones that have really good prices but I haven't been able to find many 2560 ones for a decent price
hmm he isnt usually just wrong about something was it perhaps a specific seasonic PSU?
well it kind of is but so is that evga one you had lol
but if you arent pushing it it should be fine
thats a 65w cpu and a 125w gpu its barely going to be at half load all the time
plus on the plus side evga and seasonic both have excellent RMA departments....
the odds of them hurting something else in the pc is very low
I like it too 5600xt/1660super is really where you want to be at
Mhmm
you will be much happier than with the 1060 6gb
yeah ig
$140 for the 1060 pretty good
Tho
since the 1650s is $170
And theyre close in performance
but they are both terrible and for $30 it can be so much better
1660super and 5600xt will mop the floor with a 1060/1650s
yes
Yes
Lul
Like when two strongn ppl arenfighting
although @astral swift is also right prices will be dropping once the market stabilizes after these new gpu launches from team red and team green
Im watching plunderer

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/#compatibility_notes
is my stuff good?
Two strong people figjting
thats what anime women do....
Yes once the supply is enough
And they cant handle the fight
I think once team red launches everything theyโll be able to keep up with demand better
I dont know about that
@narrow rose is a used $250 1070 ti worth?
I think team red is going to have one of its best GPU launches of its history
they come for around 200$
Iโd say yes if itโs not killed by mining
Well team red never had a โgoodโ gpu launch so the bar is low
yeah if not mined to death should be fine
When it comes to pcs amd is on top
You could argue that rx580 was a good launch though
well its the first time in a long time they are competing on even footing with Nvidias flagship cards
But obviously this one has more hype
lol yeah..... drivers
now it beats the 2080 pretty easily
a year after launch
but.........drivers
not that nvidia has good drivers rn
i mean
but amd better have better drivers than last launch
agreed
nvidia's probably gonna have 3060 as their main consumer graphics card
Imma get off cya
team red hasnt made a 5700 super yet though ๐ค
team green has more money to throw around at changing the same pcb over and over again lol
more budget options
all they do is reduce like 100 cuda cores and rebrand it
but yeah i guess more budget options
once amd managed to get their 5700xt to stop crashing, it was a better option than 2080
so they added 2070 super
and the KO lol that was just genius
its like you too can have a broken 2080 we call it the 2060KO
lmao
pretty cool idea imo
anyway i hope mining becomes relavant for like a couple months again
so i can pick up used GPUs for cheap again
it's just a 2080 die
with too many failures to be a 2080 lol
it was intended tbh
honestly
it is a really good idea. Like making potatoe skins out of left over baked potatoes
