I'm a bit worried about future upgradeability as well

#

amd has much better upgradeability than intel

#

but I have no idea if and when I'll upgrade

spiral current
#

amd also has backwards mobo compatibility

cursive magnet
#

If you buy the right processor for what youโ€™re doing you should never have to OC

marsh fulcrum
#

Eh don't worry about the upgrade potential, it's a nice to have if you think you're gonna want an upgrade soon. But if your intention is to keep it for a while and then upgrade to the latest platform that option is kind of moot then

cursive magnet
#

@glacial umbra Intel 11 gens are supposed to fit in current boards

obsidian dove
spiral current
#

you could get 32 gbs of memory for like less than double

#

also thats not a lot of ssd

obsidian dove
#

i already have a 500gb harddrive

spiral current
#

ah

obsidian dove
#

ita just extra

stoic island
#

I'd say get a B550m hdv @obsidian dove

#

B550 for the upgradability

marsh fulcrum
#

It ensures Zen 2 will work, it's not much more

stoic island
#

80$

obsidian dove
#

so switch one B550m hdv or por-m2?

stoic island
#

Also I'd switch the ssd

#

Get b550

#

A400 is dramless afaik

obsidian dove
#

this is my first build so im kinda confused tbh xD

stoic island
#

Basically, dram in ssd = great, HMB = decent, dramless = avoid at all costs imo

obsidian dove
#

hmmm

stoic island
#

I'll get an SSD with dram brb

whole harbor
#

au800

#

@stoic island

#

Oops su800

noble night
#

anyone know a good mobo for ryzen 9 3900x for under 200USD

#

or around 200

marsh fulcrum
stoic island
#

Btw @obsidian dove you sure you only want 250gb?

#

I'm looking through and I'd get a 500gb ssd

obsidian dove
#

i already have a 500gb harddrive

marsh fulcrum
#

And yeah there's plenty of good boards in that price range for Ryzen 9s

glacial umbra
#

is the ADATA Swordfish any good?

obsidian dove
#

i own

noble night
#

like whay

#

what

marsh fulcrum
#

Well question, do you think you're gonna want multiple Gen 4 NVME drives?

obsidian dove
#

a 500gb

stoic island
#

Yes I'd get a 500gb ssd on top of that

obsidian dove
#

ok

stoic island
#

I personally have my 1tb drive filled up to ~650gb and my videos are offloaded to my HDD

#

So 250gb ssd seems pretty small to me

noble night
#

@marsh fulcrum if that was for me. i only need 1-2

stoic island
#

@noble night I'd try B550 aorus elite ax

marsh fulcrum
#

Do you need Gen 4 speeds you think?

stoic island
#

160$ on Newegg last I checked

noble night
#

idrc about the super technical stuff i just want a good mobo

stoic island
#

@obsidian dove it's a hard drive

obsidian dove
#

ik

stoic island
#

Hard drives are slow asf compared to SSDs.

stoic island
#

What I gave you is a SSD.

noble night
#

thx so much

marsh fulcrum
#

Especially for the money

stoic island
#

Yea aorus elite is a b550 board with some of the fancy stuff, including bios flashback and a good sound chip

#

And ofc wifi if you need it

obsidian dove
#

i see

#

ok coolo

#

i fixed some things

#

I still cant figure out the motherboard im on a strict budget

blazing aurora
#

if i can't find the rx580, what's the next best gpu around that price?

rustic sandal
#

@south ermine how do you set individual LL120 colors? I canโ€™t figure it out for the life of me

idle compass
#

is this good

rustic sandal
#

@blazing aurora 1650s

blazing aurora
#

thanks

rustic sandal
#

np

blazing aurora
#

is the 5500xt good as well @rustic sandal

#

i found one for about 180

marsh fulcrum
#

Yes the 5500XT is just as good

stoic island
#

@blazing aurora try 1650 super or 1660 super if you stretch the budget

blazing aurora
#

1650 super is about the same price as 5500xt rn @stoic island

stoic island
#

both are good

#

usually 1650 super is a good bit cheaper

#

so usually 1650 super easy choice

glacial umbra
#

checked used market

#

good deals on there ,๐Ÿ˜Ž

stoic island
#

I'd prob get 1650 super if you ever want to try streaming

#

because NVENC is good

glacial umbra
#

I'm so unbelievably excited to get the rest of my parts and build

blazing aurora
#

^same

stoic island
#

ofc

blazing aurora
#

it's a bit stressful though

glacial umbra
#

yeah

#

I'm scared I'm gonna bend CPU pins

plush mist
#

@stoic island the ASRock B450M-HDV R4.0 should come with an updated bios so it can support 3rd gen ryzen cpu's right

#

i mean like most motherboards come with updated bios

#

right?

south ermine
#

Dm me if you have questions Iโ€™ll respond to them later

stoic island
#

idrc

#

it's b450

#

get b550 >:P

plush mist
#

is there any budget b550?

blazing aurora
plush mist
#

idk about that one chief

stoic island
#

b550m hdv

plush mist
#

b550 is at least 80 dollars

stoic island
#

that's a budget b550

#

hm?

#

80$ isn't bad at all

glacial umbra
#

I'm getting me the b450 aorus elite

stoic island
#

not bad list

blazing aurora
#

me?

stoic island
#

ye

blazing aurora
#

oh okay thanks

stoic island
#

it is what it is

blazing aurora
#

...is that bad

stoic island
#

pricing is screwed up rn and that's about as good as you can do

blazing aurora
#

okay, do i need anything else like a fan or something

stoic island
#

for example, cheap 1650 super used to be ~150$, cheap 500w PSU like a BR 500 usually is 50$

#

hm lemme see

blazing aurora
#

pricing is pretty messy rn i can't lie

stoic island
#

oh wait

#

that case doesn't come with fans

#

@blazing aurora get like a mx330-g air

#

55$ and gets you 3 fans included

blazing aurora
#

okay i'll check it out

#

it's hard to get a nice lookin case under $100

#

are there any other cases w/ fans around that price to look into

glacial umbra
#

I'm disappointed in my case choice

#

I didn't research it properly and just bought it because oooo shiny

stoic island
#

metalicgear neo or whatever it's called

#

forgot it exactly

blazing aurora
blazing aurora
#

that looks pretty decent

plush mist
glacial umbra
#

too expensive

#

@blazing aurora mx350 rgb

#

this thing

whole harbor
#

mx330-g

#

Is a good case

blazing aurora
#

it's nice looking i'll give you that

deep igloo
#

is the Corsair 4000D Airflow Tempered Glass Mid-Tower ATX PC Case - White a good case?

stoic island
#

4000d airflow is a decently good case

#

for the price it's good

#

@deep igloo just might want like another fan or two depends on you, only comes 2 fans stock.

severe axle
#

hows the airflow on that one?

#

*the cougar one

#

mx410 mesh-g is also good, $60 for front mesh and 4 argb fans

deep igloo
#

Thanks! @stoic island what is a good case you would recommend?

stoic island
#

@deep igloo TD500 mesh, a bit expensive, but great airflow and compatibility.

#

4000d is still a good case for the price

deep igloo
#

Alright thank you

fossil halo
#

yoyo

#

is the amd thermal past good enough

#

paste*

deep igloo
#

like stock cooler?

fossil halo
#

like ima use a r7 3700x

#

yea

deep igloo
#

when i say this i havent built a computer yet but I think it would be ok

fossil halo
#

yea i have heard good things about the amd stock paste

deep igloo
#

It wouldn't be like low temps like a noctua cooler would have but I think it would be ok

ember jetty
#

I found out what the problem with the ARGB was

little osprey
#

mr1111

#

hi

ember jetty
#

It was the rgb hub that came with the case

#

It was faulty

fossil halo
#

oh

little osprey
#

what is a good ryzen based pc that is aircooled for an $850-$900 budget?

fossil halo
#

mr111

#

the ๐Ÿ

little osprey
#

fr

fossil halo
#

or a thick cpu

#

ember jetty
#

Thx Naed and Suko and Windeus for all da help :D

vital oracle
fossil halo
#

oooooooooooof

little osprey
#

@fossil halo mostly minecraft with heavy sharders or modpacks

fossil halo
#

um

fossil halo
#

wait

#

actually

#

mr fox

#

is that including tax or no

little osprey
#

no

fossil halo
#

aight

deep igloo
#

@vital oracle what fps you going for?

#

and on what settings

vital oracle
#

fortnite im looking for 100+ on medium and war thunder i want to run at high or very hgih

fossil halo
#

lmao

#

100+ on medium in fortnite is ez

#

u can get that with a 200$ gpu

vital oracle
#

well thats the minimum, so anythign higher than that would be cool

deep igloo
#

I would prob do a 3600 ryzen 5 tbh

#

unless you plan to only have a game and nothing else open

little osprey
#

arent you not able to distinguish past 30 fps

vital oracle
#

can you build one or show me a better build

little osprey
#

there can easily be a better build

deep igloo
#

yeah...

vital oracle
#

show me plz

deep igloo
#

If it were me I would do a ryzen 5 3600 and a 1660 ti or 2060

vital oracle
#

budget is roughly $800ish without monitor

little osprey
#

periferals?

vital oracle
#

i have mouse keyboard and haeadsetwr

#

monitor is separate from pc budget

#

also what is the difference between ti, super, and normal

little osprey
#

how good they are

#

ti is top

#

super is mid for the product and standard is standard

vital oracle
#

does the 3600x need a cooler or is stockgood enough

fossil halo
#

ayo

#

fox

little osprey
#

yee

fossil halo
#

is rgb a priority

little osprey
#

not really but you can add if you want

fossil halo
#

aight

#

so liike

blazing aurora
#

ladies and gents is the rx580 at ~100 better than 5500 or 1650 super both priced at 180?

fossil halo
#

fans dont have to ve rgb

little osprey
#

no they dont

fossil halo
#

aight

deep igloo
#

@vital oracle The stock cooler is prob good enough unless you plan to overclock

fossil halo
#

fox

#

this is what i have

#

however it is not the best i think

#

im in class rn lmfao

little osprey
#

oh sorry

fossil halo

#

its pretty good r7 2700x rx 5700

#

16 gb ram

#

um

#

one thing i can say

#

the ssd is a bit small

#

little osprey
#

yea i have others i can use

#

thankyou!

fossil halo

mhm

#

np

little osprey
fossil halo

#

i mean it looks good

little osprey
#

thanks

fossil halo
#

idk if the case is good but it looks fine

winged tinsel
#

Would the 5600x at all work for the 6800xt?

little osprey
#

eh

still roostBOT
#
biggasamboori#6969 has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

fossil halo
#

wait

#

shoot

#

hells

deep igloo
#

@little osprey I would get a b550 motherboard

fossil halo
#

hells

little osprey
#

yes

fossil halo
#

u need fans

little osprey
#

no

fossil halo
#

does the case come with fans?

little osprey
#

yea

fossil halo
#

how many

#

u want minimum 3 fans

#

2 intake one exhaust

little osprey
#

I'll get two p12 fans

fossil halo
#

at least for an matx case for atx i would say at least 4 fans

#

yea

#

p12 is good

little osprey
winged tinsel
#

@little osprey I would get a 1tb ssd

fossil halo
#

sure?

little osprey
#

not in budget

fossil halo
#

i mean a boot drive should be ssd

little osprey
#

and I don't need all I'm running on the ssd is windows

fossil halo
#

yea

#

games and files on hdd are fine

little osprey
#

hdd is for games and other thing things

#

how much frames would a 3 3100 and a 1650 run on mw

#

cod mw

#

like 50 60

pearl blade
#

yea, we're not to the point where SSDs with large storage like 2TB are cheap enough (they're good deals, just not dirt cheap like HDD

little osprey
#

yea

fossil halo
#

yea

#

yo

#

heres my build

little osprey
#

bet

fossil halo
#

i think its maxe4d out

#

budget is 620

#

lemme send

#

well

little osprey
#

send the pcpp

fossil halo
#

620 without gpu

pearl blade
#

so like 1k$?

little osprey
#

guessint

little osprey
#

b550 board is better

deep igloo
pearl blade
#

yea, i think you could do a b550 tomahawk for cheap now?

wooden spindle
#

here is an affordable parts list

fossil halo
#

i want as much rgb as possible hence the name

little osprey
#

tbh @deep igloo its all bad

deep igloo
#

๐Ÿ‘

fossil halo
#

yea um

little osprey
#

@fossil halo if youre on a budget build the 3700x is a little too much tbh

#

I'll remake it for you

little osprey
#

whats your budget?

fossil halo
#

and i dont think i cheaped out on anything

little osprey
#

600?

fossil halo
#

620

#

exact

#

well 621

#

but yea

little osprey
#

but you have no gpu so how are you going to display anything?

fossil halo
#

gpu is not part of the list

#

im getting gpu separately

#

prob a rx 570 or smth

#

cheap

pearl blade
fossil halo
#

dont worry about gpu

little osprey
#

ok 1660super for about the same price rn

fossil halo
#

yea

#

but like

little osprey
#

and its better

fossil halo
#

gpu is separate

little osprey
#

than 570

fossil halo
#

k

little osprey
#

ik but just giving recommendations

fossil halo
#

but gpu is not part of the build its weird

deep igloo
#

so it was just the mobo/ram?

pearl blade
little osprey
deep igloo
#

Thanks too @little osprey

#

I hate rgb

little osprey
#

np

fossil halo
#

ew

#

disgutsting

fossil halo
little osprey
#

out of the 3 motherboards which one is the best

fossil halo
#

atom i need wifi

deep igloo
#

are micro atx boards good?

fossil halo
#

yes

#

they are cheap too

jagged ember
#

Oh my god

little osprey
#

if you want wifi then get the pro vdh but other than that asrock

jagged ember
#

Please stop spamming

little osprey
#

ok

#

ty

jagged ember
#

This is how you get banned lol

fossil halo
#

like send me a 620 list

pearl blade
#

i think someone said it before, when choosing a mobo, wifi shouldn't be a concern, since adding a wifi card is only $15-25

jagged ember
#

Theyre all good

little osprey
#

im talking to the dude spamming

fossil halo
#

who

#

is that me im sorry for spam if i am

jagged ember
#

Get one with features you want

little osprey
pearl blade
#

but i still got the boards with wifi because i don't feel like messing around with wifi cards

fossil halo
#

^

jagged ember
#

Wifi cards

fossil halo
#

ew

jagged ember
#

Really aren't complicated

#

Plug and play, literally

little osprey
#

just plug in like gpu

#

^

jagged ember
#

If you can't handle wifi cards, pc building might be a lil difficult

little osprey
#

^

pearl blade
#

I've used them in my old pckekw , i also have a crap load of wifi usbs

jagged ember
#

Oof usb wifi tho

#

Nah fam

pearl blade
#

unreliable

little osprey
#

but also if you dont want wifi card just use ethernet

jagged ember
#

If you have the option...

pearl blade
#

yea, boomer built houses don't have luxuries like that

jagged ember
#

Powerline sucks

#

So

little osprey
#

can i get any ssd recomendations?

jagged ember
#

Mp34

#

Sn750

#

Whatever is cheaper

little osprey
#

k

pearl blade
#

now would be a really good time to buy ssd, they're all on sale

jagged ember
#

I heard samsung 970 evo

#

Is real cheap

#

Soo

little osprey
#

ok

#

ty

jagged ember
#

Compare prices first

little osprey
#

whats a good 256gb ssd?

jagged ember
#

I heard yesterday I think

#

Haven't checked

jagged ember
#

Usually don't bother to lol

little osprey
#

jagged ember
#

Crucial P1

pearl blade
jagged ember
#

Hey it's a good budget ssd

#

Dont knock it

little osprey
#

eh

jagged ember
#

Decent overall

little osprey
#

its better then the dumb Samsung 970 evo

#

๐Ÿ‘

jagged ember
#

There it is

#

Best ssd

kindred iris
#

?

little osprey
#

I could have 4tb of hdd for a 500gb ssd?

jagged ember
#

Love mp34

little osprey
#

yes @kindred iris its good

fossil halo
#

goes over budget

#

i have a hard cutoff at 620

#

1

#

bc of tax

#

basically

jagged ember
#

Geez

fossil halo
#

ill lay it out here

jagged ember
#

At that budget I'd just save up

kindred iris
#

[Warranty Change] TEAMGROUP M.2 PCIe SSDs which purchased on or after January 1, 2019, have a 5-Year extended warranty. this means it has a 5 year warranty after purchase right?

fading grail
jagged ember
#

It's near impossible for a good gaming pc new

little osprey
#

@jagged ember thats his budget with everything except the gpu

jagged ember
#

Used market would be great benefit to you

fading grail
#

without sacrifising preformence

fossil halo
#

i got 650 with tax
so that makes up for 596 of parts
but then i have a 25$ amazon giftcard so that becomes 621

#

my parents dont want me buying used

jagged ember
#

Pfft

little osprey
#

like i said 3700x is too much for your budget build

jagged ember
#

They're clearly not budgeting hard enough lol

#

This is why buyer protection exists

fossil halo
#

but isnt the b450m bazooka good

jagged ember
#

Oh no

little osprey
#

b450 boards dont support new cpus

fossil halo
#

at least i have heard that its good

little osprey
#

yo should i get 1650 or 1660

jagged ember
#

B450 in this day and age

#

Oof

little osprey
#

im on a budget

#

no cap

fossil halo
#

k

#

um

#

lemme see

little osprey
#

b550 is recommended

jagged ember
#

Also, 3700x in a 650 dollar build

little osprey
#

^

jagged ember
#

Is really a good use of your money, totally

#

Seriously get a 3300x

little osprey
jagged ember
#

Get an actual gpu like a 1660S or something

vital oracle
little osprey
#

im on budget

vital oracle
#

is this good?

fossil halo
#

then which one should i get the 3600 is stupidly inflated costs 300$ smh the 3600x costs like 240

jagged ember
#

I

fossil halo
#

i want a better cpu than a gpu

jagged ember
#

Why

fossil halo
#

bc i dont play many games

little osprey
#

no way the 3600 is at 300

jagged ember
#

Are you playing civ6?

#

Rts games?

fossil halo
#

it is

#

only game i play is fortnite

#

occasionally

jagged ember
#

Then get the 3100 or 3300

little osprey
#

^

#

yeah youre fine witha 3100

#

+1650s or 1660s

jagged ember
#

It's a super solid cpu

fading grail
jagged ember
#

Trust

fossil halo
#

but

#

no

#

rgb

#

cooler

#

i

jagged ember
#

You dont need a 3700x

fossil halo
#

need

#

rgb

#

rgb

#

is love

#

rgb

#

is life

jagged ember
#

Man's on a budget

#

Wants rgb

little osprey
#

any case reccomendations for budget but still good airflow

jagged ember
#

Doesn't buy rgb strips

little osprey
#

if you really want rgb save money on cpu and waste it on an aftermarket cooler

#

rbg bad

#

๐Ÿ˜Ž

fossil halo
#

wait

severe axle
#

rbg is not bad

fossil halo
#

is 2700x worth 218 tho

#

i dont think so

little osprey
#

just get the 3 3100

fossil halo
#

its kinda old now

jagged ember
#

I'm out lol

little osprey
#

please

jagged ember
#

He's not listening

#

I can't do anything

little osprey
#

PLEASE

fossil halo
#

then i have a frick ton of money left

jagged ember
#

Mx300 cougar?

little osprey
#

2700 and 3100 are pretty much the same cpu but if you can get the 3100

fossil halo
#

and have nothing to spend it on

jagged ember
#

I'd look up gn videos @little osprey

#

Gamers nexus

little osprey
jagged ember
#

Okay cya

fading grail
little osprey
#

for case p300a mesh is good. the one wideus recommended too

#

for budget that is

fading grail
#

bruh

little osprey
#

looks good to me

fading grail
#

should I get a cheaper Power Supply?

little osprey
#

are you still planning on getting a 3070?

fading grail
#

yea

#

im getting this in April

desert gulch
#

dont cheap out on a psu

fading grail
#

hopefully they will be back in stock by then

little osprey
#

ok then keep psu

desert gulch
#

bad psu can destroy a system

fading grail
#

ok

little osprey
#

thats already a good build to me

#

yay

#

how much frames u think it would run

#

on what games

#

what do you play?

#

it would run up over 100 on not very demanding games like valorant or cs

#

same for cod if you lower down some settings

jaunty nacelle
#

dont actually buy that 3100 for $145

little osprey
#

if i put low settings on cod

#

how much would it run

#

i honestly dont know

#

you can probably look up some benchmarks with your cpu and gpu paired together. maybe some gameplay too

yea

ill do that

building a killer pc is so cheap compared to before

little osprey

not really

fading grail
#

2080ti used to be 1200$ now same preformence is 400$

little osprey
#

gpus are hella overpriced rn

fading grail
#

and AMD is better for the CPUS and they are cheaper aswell

fading grail
little osprey
#

does it matter what brand u get ur gpu from

#

like the preformance

fading grail
#

i dont think so

jaunty nacelle
#

just manufacturers have bad gpus

#

some have good

#

๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

#

chipset is what matters

#

and cooling ig

fading grail
#

is the founders 3070 good? or is there a better one for same price

#

dont worry about stock im not buying till April

little osprey
#

is the msi gaming x 1650 super a good gpu?

jaunty nacelle
#

its november

little osprey
#

i mean its coming straight from the people that made it

fading grail
#

obv its not bad

#

i was just making sure theres nothing better

idk much about brands. im still learning myself about pcs

#

@little osprey are you buying the 2060 used?

little osprey
#

@glacial umbra yes off my cousin

glacial umbra
#

nice

#

was gonna ask where you got the price lol

little osprey
#

yeah 200 for that is good

#

@little osprey iโ€™m not gonna buy windows. i just wanted a ram with rgb lmaoo

glacial umbra
#

@little osprey delta RGB is cheaper and has rgb

little osprey
#

you can get same priced ram faster speed

glacial umbra
#

but seriously rgb is overpriced ram wise

little osprey
#

^

#

Delta Rgb ram stick noted

glacial umbra
#

you could get an rgb cooler to try and compensate

#

some decent budget rgb cpu coolers

little osprey
#

yeah get non rgb ram and rgb cooler

#

i have enough money to water cool the cpu. idk if i should do that ppl whwre telling me if iโ€™m not gonna OC thereโ€™s no point

#

yeah also not needed for your build tbh

#

unless you mean an aio

#

so the nzxt case is bad airflow?

#

even if i buy the fans on all sides

#

well yes aio the nzxt kraken m22

#

yeah

#

what is your budget anyways?

#

uhh take away 200$ for the gpu... like $600-700 in parts

#

parts as in not the gpu bc i already have the gpu.

#

yeah

#

i wouldโ€™ve bought the gpu new it wouldโ€™ve been 450$ on new egg so i was saved lmaoo

#

4000d good case

#

if**

hoary lichen

One of my parts came

damn the nzxt case that i put was my dream caee lol

And these dudes

What do you guys think about the H500 case? What about the H500M which is almost double the price?

little osprey

is a 1650 super or a 1660 better

normal 1660

#

nvm

#

@still ingot let's take the convo here

#

How do you feel about 1060 3gb mining cards?

#

I hear you can flash a gaming bios on them and use 'em normally

#

But theyre mining cards

#

So they're probably far gone y'know

still ingot
#

like

#

its a good idea

#

but id have to buy it from a chinese site i think

#

theyre sketch, ive looked at them

storm quartz
#

Yeah after they die they probably try to resell them

little osprey
#

if you guys are talking about a card just to get bios then maybe one of the low end nvidia cards will do

storm quartz
#

He needs a good, cheap card for rendering

little osprey
#

budget?

still ingot
#

150usd

#

though i dont mind ideas from above that, can save up

storm quartz
#

Hmmmmm

#

Idk how tesla compute gpus will fair in rendering tbh

#

Tesla K40 is cheap, but its meant to be in servers

arctic jungle
#

bruhh

storm quartz
#

Its for his buillddddd

arctic jungle
#

you do realize that tesla K40 isn't a gpu

#

it's an accelarator

#

no video out

#

it would work, but u need separate gpu

#

with video out

storm quartz
#

Ah, that's right

#

Hmmmm

arctic jungle
#

and vram is decent speed, not too fast

storm quartz
#

K40 with some cheap-o display adapter?

arctic jungle
#

what

#

no

#

you don't understand

storm quartz
#

Like a separate gpu

arctic jungle
#

it doesn't have any cores

storm quartz
#

Wdym?

arctic jungle
#

you need another gpu

#

for video out

storm quartz
#

Thats why i said a display adapter

#

As in a second gpu

arctic jungle
#

and k40 probably wouldn't help with a rendering task, unless ur doing funky old software... no personal softwares support accelarators any more

storm quartz
#

Damn really?

#

Hmmmmmm

arctic jungle
#

they're pretty dead

#

best option is rx 580 8 gb

#

if ur on that tight of a budget

storm quartz
#

I guess

#

the 580 is a little over budget in UK ebay tho

#

Not too much tho I dont think

little osprey
#

1050ti is well within his budget if its uk price

storm quartz
#

I forgot about that card

cursive magnet
storm quartz
#

Ye the 1050ti would be a good idea

little osprey
#

about 120-150

little osprey
storm quartz
#

Not a big fan

little osprey
#

i mean if they just plan on using software then its alright

storm quartz
#

Samsung ssds are great ssds

little osprey
#

yes but still a lot of people recommend those two

storm quartz
#

I cant click on the link

#

How much is the Samsung ssd?

little osprey
#

54

#

55*

storm quartz
#

Wow not bad

#

Usd?

little osprey
#

wait nvm

#

60

storm quartz
#

Still pretty gud

little osprey
#

uh yeah usd

#

and the two i recommended are just like 2-3 dollars more on amazon

storm quartz
#

Ah

#

If theyrr better and not much more expensive then

little osprey
#

yeah

#

Iโ€™m making a gaming pc build from scratch and have most of the stuff picked out except for peripherals

Any recommendations on such things

no

#

neato thanks

still ingot

yeah no 1050ti's just gonna be a waste

i've never built a pc from individual pieces

is there anything i need to get other than my build

Maybe

wanton wagon

hit me

hoary lichen
#

A anti static bracelet

wanton wagon
#

ah yes

#

i have a carpet

hoary lichen
#

Theyโ€™re only like 8 bucks

little osprey
#

you really dont need it but if youre that worried about static and messing up your parts then go for it

wanton wagon
#

well this is my most expensive build yet so why not

hoary lichen
#

Also

#

search up a tutorial on how to use one

#

Its easy

#

But i forgot

wanton wagon
#

i saw linus

hoary lichen
#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

wanton wagon
#

plug in psu and hook the static cord to the psu

#

i'm a layman when it comes to electricity and current

#

ngl

hoary lichen
#

Attach it to your ankle or wrist then clip it on the psu with it plugged into the wall but off

wanton wagon
#

mk

hoary lichen
#

Thats what I remember

#

But idk

wanton wagon
#

lmao

#

my build is relatively strong

#

like RX 5600 strong

hoary lichen
#

Send it

#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

wanton wagon
#

nothing compared to the ppl in this server

hoary lichen
#

Ill send mine

wanton wagon
#

but a lot better compared to my current 1060

#

but the thing is

hoary lichen
wanton wagon
#

i have a 1600x900 60Hz monitor

#

so until i upgrade it its gonna be kind of dumb

hoary lichen
#

Mine is decent

wanton wagon
#

this is similar to my build

#

i have 50w more

:)

hoary lichen

Bruh the gpu only went down 10 bucks

Still

#

Tho

wanton wagon

500GB ssd

you sure

hoary lichen
#

Im gonna get a hard drive 2 weeks after i start using the pc

wanton wagon

mk

#

also

#

im not a build master or anything by far

#

but

#

my i5-10400 is better in every field compared to your 3100

#

and its $10 more

#

idk if you care to consider

hoary lichen
#

Nah

#

Ima upgrade the cpu anyway

wanton wagon
#

mk

hoary lichen
#

Im just trying to get used to a pc for now

#

5-6 months later ill upgrade

@wanton wagon 2 words. Mobo pricing

#

:P

wanton wagon
#

thank you

#

i am dumb

stoic island
#

chip to chip 10400 beats 3100 10/10 times

#

but mobo pricing, and Intel non-z boards limiting max ram freq makes it iffy

#

side note

hoary lichen
#

I dont like intel mostly cause i have to use $50-60 more on a cpu fan

stoic island
#

10400 is 180$, 3100 is usually 115$..?

#

maybe you meant to say 10100?

#

Either way, if you think about it, a B550m vdh is as cheap as 80$, the cheapest z490 board you're gonna find is ~140$

little osprey
#

also @stoic island do you really need to worry about static when building a pc?

hoary lichen
#

You do

wanton wagon
#

when i buy my i5 it will have the stock fan

#

correct?

hoary lichen
#

Im pretty sure you can kill a pc part if you pass the static onto it

#

Im not sure tho

little osprey

intel stock fans kekw

Jk

@little osprey ground against psu ez

little osprey

yes a lot of people also say touching the case before installing or touching a component is just as safe but idk

hoary lichen

Thats why im getting a anti static bracelet

#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

#

The safest way

#

Also

Test your parts before you put them into the case

stoic island

Yes

wanton wagon

why the kekw

touch

NotKhite#8199 has been warned

is intel stock fan notthatgood

stoic island

it's not good

little osprey

they all have the same stock fan

wanton wagon

how expensive is an upgrade

hoary lichen
#

50-60 bucks

#

Idk

#

I go with amd stock coolers

little osprey
#

arent you getting a dark rock?

hoary lichen
#

no

little osprey

not you

wanton wagon
#

dark rock?

stoic island

Gammaxx 400 at 20$

#

it's great for the price

wanton wagon

is that a fan

#

idk who is talking to me or past me

stoic island

that is a cpu cooler

wanton wagon
#

mk

little osprey
#

im talking to you about your 3080 build

stoic island
#

it has a fan on it

#

the whole thing isn't a fan

hoary lichen
#

When i get my stock cooler im unscrewing the fan and turning it

#

So the amd logo can be on top

#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

wanton wagon
#

smart

hoary lichen
stoic island
#

how about not getting one @hoary lichen :P

#

yes

#

gammaxx 400 good

hoary lichen
#

Is 2 fans enough?

#

Tho

stoic island
#

yes

hoary lichen
#

Alr

#

But when i upgrade im getting one more fan

#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

little osprey
#

yeah 2 -3 intake is enough

woven arch
severe axle
#

are you streaming/video editing?

#

or just gaming

woven arch
#

gaming

#

maybe streaming

severe axle
#

for just gaming I'd get a 3600/3600x, whichever is cheaper

little osprey
#

also h510 not a good case for airflow

wanton wagon
#

h510 bad

severe axle
#

also yeah thats a bad case for gaming

woven arch
#

is there a better case at that price?

little osprey
#

either 4000d or cougar mx330

severe axle
#

or mx410 mesh-g

woven arch
#

oh and the 3700x is about the same price as the r5 3600 so i was like r7 better?

wanton wagon
#

h550

hoary lichen
#

@woven arch also try to get a 80+ gold psu

little osprey
#

p300a mesh

hoary lichen
#

If you cant then stick with bronze

severe axle
#

3600x is cheaper rn

#

also just not a good time to build in general

woven arch
#

what is a good psu

little osprey
#

yeah a lot of things are overpriced rn

woven arch
#

yea im not gonna get the money till like next year lol

severe axle
#

most things will change next year

hoary lichen
#

Just get a 80+ bronze or 80+ gold and youll be fine

wanton wagon
#

too bad i'm building my most expensive build yet oh boy

severe axle
#

so I'd not worry about it

woven arch
#

im just tryna educate myself rn to get a broad idea

#

when do u guys think prices will go down?

hoary lichen
#

After Christmas

#

Probably

wanton wagon
#

hmm i might wait a little then

woven arch
#

๐Ÿ˜ณ so christmas sale is no go?

hoary lichen
#

I mean

#

All they did was raise prices on the parts then gave you a discount making you think youโ€™re paying less

woven arch
#

๐Ÿ˜ณ truuuu

little osprey
#

pretty much

woven arch
#

so even after christmas what do u think is the best gaming build

hoary lichen
#

Idk

woven arch
#

for around 1000

little osprey
#

if 1k is your limit go for 3600x or non x

wanton wagon
#

that's an entirely different conversation

hoary lichen
#

My budget is 800 so i wouldnt know

woven arch
#

i can go with 800 budget

severe axle
#

3600 overpriced

#

its $270

#

something in that range

woven arch
#

i just want something that will go 144fps+ on games like valorant and apex legends

little osprey
#

i did say both because prices are always changing

#

valorant is fine with 3600 even a 3100

hoary lichen
#

Anything above 144 is pointless

#

Lmao

#

๐Ÿ—ฟ

woven arch
#

๐Ÿ˜ณ

#

i want that 144hz gameplay ya know?

wanton wagon
#

above*

#

not about

#

144 good

woven arch
#

or should i just get new eyes

#

i think i have 30hz eyes

wanton wagon
#

i've been living with 60hz my entire life

#

and i gotta say im not a fan

little osprey
#

same

woven arch
#

i play macbook

#

so u already know

hoary lichen
#

@wanton wagon i didnt even realize I misspelled that๐Ÿ˜ณ

wanton wagon
#

np

hoary lichen
