wow
@little osprey do you need 32 gigs of ram?
legit double the price
thats very pricey
ok ill look into it thx
@obsidian dove some of the stock is trash so youll have to wait for the 3100 to lower to around $110 and the 1650 super usually goes for $170 its just overpriced rn
just wait for the prices to lower
@whole harbor its about 120 is normal
oh LOL
how many gigs in a usb should i get for windows?
@little leaf it's been 115$ for the past like year until the last week or so
@little osprey https://pcpartpicker.com/list/LrJR4d
@whole harbor I really think he doesn't need 32 gigs of ram
ye
$130 for 3600 CL18
no
I think trident is cheaper
8gb flash drive is enough for windows tool right?
im mainly asking about the cpu vid card and cooler
Comparable trident is $145 for the same kit
It has a $20 promo
the one dulvn posted it good
isnt 3600cl16 like the sweetspot to pair with a ryzen 3600?
3200 cl16 is about the same as 3600 cl18
3600 cl18 is a little better
norm price
ok thx
I wouldn't buy it
y?
newer gen cards are bound to ccome out
and there are probably 2060s for 200 dollars on used
used market underrated
didnt yall switch to a 3600
anyone able to make me a good build with a p400a for gaming and editing
preferably with a 3070
budget?
1700
oh thats 3080
its flexible tho
1070 for $150 worth?
usd or cad
id prefer to stay lower tbh but it can go higher no more than 2k tho
Usd
@little osprey and why not TD500 mesh or P500a
1070 is like the 1660s I belive
If it's shipped, yes that's worth it
i already have a td500
I'm lazy rn just edit off this
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/Mr1111/saved/HhWv3C
TD500 mesh is great
When ebay says for parts in gpus
yeah the steel isnt the strongest from what ive seen
Wat dat mean
My mb coming today
this your first build?
Ye
samee
havent figured out my gpu tho
Its in between 1660 s/ti and 5600xt
just waiting for deals
prices are so bad rn for all gpus tbh
i got mine for 350
dum dum
huh
👀
350 is probably the lowest a 5700xt has been in a while
could you guys recommend me like parts for a gaming pc. my budget is 500 and i would play games like watch dogs 2 and rising storm 2 vietnam
im sad 3600 was 200 last night
i got 3600x for 240 cause 3600 was more expensive
oh and maybe some discord type screen sharing but idk if thats necessary
to say
@whole harbor Yep
i honestly couldnt wait for the hype of the new cards to go down so i settled for a 5700xt
@little osprey $500 VERY low for a pc
yeah
so whats ur highest
you can getsomething with 500
500 bro-
bruh
500 would need used parts to be good
Might as well get an optplex
ok
thx
500 is too low to build a pc. 600 is better
I put together a 500 USD build on PCPP a couple days ago lol
500usd is possible
it's gone up to 586 since then I think
but I could make changes to it to bring it back down to 500
😎
1650 Supers are getting pricey tho :(
they're probably all just out of stock
Bro the 2060 super was 399 but sold out quick
Ye
Ryzen is cool
I JUST GOT MY MOBO GPU AND RAM 
Pcpp doesn't have good monitor listings
i see
like missing prices and stuff
can someone review my PCPP list
Is that a bad thing?
🗿
vroom
recommendation for 2x16gb ram ddr4?
What cpu?
what's the best budget psu for a 350w build?
CX 450, CX 550, are decent options
there are cheaper ones that would still be good
I don’t like cx, but that might just be me.
what's wrong with them?
Corsairs more expensive psus are great but the budget ones merit some looking into
Okay I'll do that
CX is really good relative to the 'cheap' bronze PSUs
It's more a MWE Gold than a W1
You gonna place your sticker @hoary lichen?
I dont know what i would place it on
w1 is just
Your forehead
kinda bad
i sent evo my 2019 collection of astolfo pictures
Bad how?
at least it's no TT smart
can anyone recommend a good budget boom arm? Wanna get a Quadcast at some point and will need one
they had a heart attack and died
ripple
It’s $40, you do get what you pay for
Ngl
and it's not a lot
I spent triple that on a psu
so did I
I wouldn’t spend less tbh
Not just cheap. But cheapo
Cheapo is reserved for raspberry pi
lol
:p
$20
Now safe? That isn’t a promise
Bet brb
@hazy rune Titan#2599 https://www.ebay.com/itm/gamimg-pc/293847647767?hash=item446aaf4617:g:NAsAAOSw2zpfufcM
20 bucks
Never heard of a gamimg pc before
no way thats even legit haha
It's a bid only
i know they put starting price at 99cents lmao
do mail in rebates discount the price of an item?
@blazing aurora Usually you get a check in the mail
oh okay
how long does that take
pcpartpicker keeps listing parts with MIR as discounted for some reason
Depends on if you send the right stuff. Follow the directions explicitly. ORIGINAL upcs, etc
upcs?
Barcode on box
alrighty
Some need copies of receipts/invoices.
I plan to get a sapphire radeon rx 5600xt
@blazing aurora If you cut out a UPC, you can’t return that item in most cases
usually no :P
@stoic island is corsair cv bad
?
bruh I missed the $99 3100 😦
SPAIN WITHOUT THE S
what's br
alright i'll go with the cx
thanks mr1111
is the MSI H410M-A PRO Micro ATX LGA1200 a good mobo?
i mean its msi and has the word pro in the title
idk let me check for you
its very substantial
supports 10th gen intel
Uh
Intel non-Z locks overclocking and locks ram frequency
H is also the bottom of the barrel
so i should go with the b460 instead
yeah
alright thanks
Z490 best choice
Did you buy a cpu yet?
is intel better than ryzen for gaming
yeah
Is 750w enough for 3080/5600x
what cpu are you running
I got a 9th gen core i5 for my build
5600x
Yeah a little
I'd go with 850w on that then
Hm.
back down?
i saw it at like 170 last week
then yesterday it was 300 for some reason
😆
but yea i think 500 gb is enough for now
i am doing pretty well with the 121 gb mac scammed me into
oh i was looking for a wired one
i will check out tho
i didnt know there was wireless
model o wireless is really good
is there any benefit from wireless or wired?
truuu
i will definitely check those out
the g533 and wireless model o
is there anything bad about the build
or is it set?
if you can afford a 5600x, but ik not everyone can so yea that looks solid
is 5600x better than 3700x?
in gaming yes
okay i will try to find one
it'll be a bit more expensive
ye and if nvidia or amd decide to release a budget card
ayo
that might expand your options
ohh truuu
is a b450 with 2 pcie ports worth it more than a b550 with only one
like upgradeablity wise
depends if you'll need them in the future
like i mean the ones i am looking at come with wifi but if i choose to go with a wifi card then how does it work
like bc i need wifi
and a gpu
are you looking at m-atx boards?
can u send a link
sure
b450 has 2 pcie b550 has 1
Yo are 2.0 and 3.0 flash drives different in size?
really?
they're pcie 1x slots
the long one is the x16 slot
yea
Yo are 2.0 and 3.0 flash drives different in size?
Alright just wondering
they CAN be diff in size
no like
u have the installer
that u install onto the ssd or hdd right
i mean if u use an hdd as ur boot drive thats sad
Or
This
1st one for more cooling
either one is fine then
Is it safe to connect 2 short pcie cables to make a longer one?
make sure u dont get tall ram for the mugen

that looks like bad airflow
bruh why do all the good looking cases have bad airflow
the mesh version of the dlm 22 case
is there
oh wait
is the 21 version
do you just want a solid front panel
but want good airflow lul
yea ik that
but like
is there any solid front case that has good airflow
ik taht kinda sounds like a paradox
but yea
thats because it is a paradox
but like
Hi, I am wanting to get into pcs, so i plan on building a starter pc, i have very low level knowledge of good parts and whats better than what, so ive been doing as much research and youtubing as i can and created a partpicker list, would you guys be able to give any help. my budge is under 800.
maybe something with the same concept as the o11
w/ tax or no tax what will u be using it for, if gaming what games
oh yea send the list
under 800 including tax, it will be for games, i know eventually i can upgrade but right now i would be playing things like minecraft, rainbow six, valorant, apex legends, rogue company
just a bit sketch on that ssd
^
not necessarily tho
i think
u can go for a more inexpensive motherboard
and get a stronger gpu
@inner wind
can u get an ethernet connection to ur pc
yes i can, but lets say i cant why would you be asking that?
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9HYckX why tf is the 3100 180 bucks 
otherwise ur gonna either have to get a wifi card,a wifi motherboard, or one of those sketch wifi adapters
ur motherboard does not come with wifi
ahh okay
but yea
um
i think
u should change the 3100 to the 2600 maybe
and ur getting scammed with that psu
So quick question who want to try and make me an amd build $900 budget that I can use for gaming streaming video/photo editing
Please
No tax
lenny the penny would you be fine with building micro atx
you can get far better performance for the price although it is smaller and the max power threshold is lower
so i believe the videos i was watching was more based around that
okay, so atx, im not so sure what it is, like i feel like i can understand it but can you put it in words for me
k
so basically
atx is the normal pc size
If you can make it $900 without tax and for streaming and video editing
its rather large and can hold more graphics cards and stuff etc
ill make it soon gimme a sec
Ok thanks just ping me if you have any questions you want to ask me
@warm nova
@inner wind basically there are 3 main form factors (really only matters for motherboard and case)
atx which is the normal size, can hold more big stuff like gpus
micro atx, which is smoller, but is more inexpensive, and its max power threshold is lower, but not by much
mini itx, very very smol and used for portability and is more specialized
THE FRICK BRO STOP
STOP
TF DUDE
@gaunt zinc
@ripe osprey
@warm nova @ripe osprey @coarse coral
H
@coarse coral
Lol
@lime forge
THANK GOD
...
GOD DAMMIT TOMIE
actual stupid
I PRESSED BAN
MANS WAS SOAMMING GEORGE FLOYD
LMAO
YOU SCREWED ME OUT OF ME $3000
LOL
Hey guys just got a new intel i1 bet u guys r jealous
I am Linus in disguise
bro im literally wet send pics
^
I also have 50 mb of ram
Bro stop your gonna make me act tf up
ikr
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Bad word usage
Reason: Too many infractions
Lmao
kekw
so on my part list ive taken off things you guys suggested i changed so motherboard, storage, video card and power supply was that right?
yeah sure
bro
People arent smart
Oh then nevermind
Ok
lemme get leny a list
I have an intel one but I want to be able to over clock it but I have a 10400f so I can’t
ay leny
yes
Whats his budget?
720
and what does he have alr?
nothing
okay what do you think is a good budget for the games i mentioned
or in general for a pc for mostly gaming acitvity
@fossil halo btw for my build I want to use that same case from the list I already made which is the metallic gear neo air
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TRsxfP wait for the gpu to go to $230 and the psu to go to $50
@fossil halo
so for the budget that list is better or has more value over i5’s list?
my list was based on current prices
so i mean if u can wait then yea dulvns is better
Random thing
If i got my hands on a machine with duel E5-2690's
with maybe a GTX 1050 or something
How well would it run minecraft java with a stupid amount of mods? like 200 or so mods
what might the ram requirements be for this?
k
okay ill take both into deep consideration on what i wanna do
thank you guys so much youve been too helpful
@ornate solstice
why do u want to keep the case tho
and does the fan have to be rgb
If you want you choose a different case I was just hoping to have a black and white scheme
Also ima get a 2060 super from a friend for $400
I thought the 2060 super was better?
no
What
5700 is like 2070 equivalent iirc
Seriously?
yea
So many people told me it was better that’s why I was gonna buy it of my friend 😂
dont quote me on that but i know that it is better or equivalent to the 2060 super
and its def cheaper
lmao
oh yea and smallz is it ok if the boot drive is a little smaller
Any one have a good build for under 700 and can run rust fortnite and cod
Um sure ig
bc u already have 2tb hdd
They 5700xt and the 2060s are similar
According to this
Technically I have 3 rn cause I have a 1tb brand new never been used before in storage I bought it last year but never bothered to put it in my rig that I have now lmao
userbenchmark isn't that accurate
ay smallz
heres a list
oh wait
@ornate solstice https://pcpartpicker.com/list/228Cwz
here i think this is better
has fans too
it is matx tho
on what settings how many frames
What type of case is that
dlm 21 mesh
looks really nice with the white led fans
its mainly white
u can get it in black too
lmao
i think u can get it off amazon or newegg
dlm 21 is famous for coming in hella colors
Both thank you sm
Anyone have any idea why I can't change ram speed at all? I put a Ryzen 2600 in today and just can't get everything working properly. Default ram speed in my bios is 2133. I have Dominator Platinum 32 @3600 ram. Wanted to at least get it to 3000. No matter what I set it to, my board shows a F9 error and resets to 2133 to boot. Even if I set it to 2133, it will flash F9 error and reset to defaults.
idk
theres this one video
taht helps
with how to set up ur computer
thats all i know i have never built one
@past harness https://pcpartpicker.com/list/j2rn2V
i think this is really good for sub 700
but oh yea @ornate solstice @inner wind
guys
with the build that i gave you idk if you guys know
the windows will be unactivated
so then u will not be able to do things like change some settings or wallpaper
and u will have a watermark on the bottom of ur screen
bc windows is 100$
@fossil halo I have windows 10pro key so I’m good
aight
what tf are ur priorities?
a outdated cpu outdated motherboard 64 gigs of ram
a bad graphics card
lmao
i think u need to reconsider ur priorities
and dont use newegg pc builder
@verbal quarry
bro
LMAO
AND U BOOTING OFF AN HDD
do u already have some of these parts?
no
@fossil halo yeah i plan on buying windows
its all good the budgey was for the pc
Read your manual
I don't remember if it matters which one
Such an informative manual 
B550 a pro
whether it matters if it's 2 4 or 1 3 is what I ponder
i mean its only 2 4 and 1 3 depending what way u look at it
Yeh
I got it
Reason: Duplicated text
bruh
Why is Intel on that manual if it’s a B550 
LMAO
@fossil halo thank you so much most likely going to buy it tmw or today
mhm np
Can someone tell me if these parts are good and compatible? My friend is looking to make a budget PC and he wanted to make sure this all checks out
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/4rvz68#compatibility_notes
Like the grey market keys?
I don't really trust those since they can deactivate at any time
Or not at all
truu
It's a game of chance
Thoughts on Ryzen 3 1300x and RX 5500XT pairing?
@lament heath could you elaborate a bit on the part choices, because they dont seem to make much sense?
yea
also no need to get a G variant of ryzen cpu if you are getting a 1660ti
^
and 3600mhz cl18 is around 2% faster than 3200mhz cl16 on ryzen
It's not mine it's a friend's
I'm not amazing at PC building so I needed some help
Lol
still just some strange choices on the build
Yeah I can understand that
What could he change? Like are there better/cheaper stuff?
2sec
@lament heath you can buy windows 10 for like $15-20 from G2A and they guarantee a refund if the seller doesnt give you a working key or respond in time
thats where I bought my keys
noooo not G2A :(((
What is the key deactivates 3 months later?
I heard bad things from grey market keys
mine is perfectly fine
or if you dont wanna buy windows u can always just use the trial version of it
or install linux
eBay key
not trial its j not activated
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/3ZbxfP <- that is AN option @lament heath , and yes, i did not change the GPU. Because depending on budget, and your friends stance on the windows key, different things are viable
I think his budget is like $1000 so if you think that would work
Can you overclock and?
tell ur friend to wait for the rtx 3060ti then
Amd^
coming out next week
yea
How much is the 3060?
399
most likely around 400
u can easily fit that into a 1k build
Are they going to supply more of them?
isnt it being announced like december 2nd or something?
Reason: Bad word usage
IF there is a non-TI it should be below that
The 3080s were a nightmare
re: supply: @lament heath we dont know
Yeah I didn't think so
non ti is coming out later
like next year
yea i dont think the 3060ti launch will be any better
@fossil halo is the r5 3600 better than the xt or x?
Yeah he doesn't want to wait that long especially when I have a feeling it's going to go the same way the 30 series did
k then go for a 5700xt
The 3600xt cost less on Amazon should I buy it
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CrFqdD <- that is a viable path then
they are out of stock last i looked @ornate solstice
Out of stock in Best Buy
cheapest in stock is around 270
I’m in us
I just checked Best Buy they out of stock
like 285
Can you overclock them?
@fossil halo ^
@little leaf gaming streaming and video editing
So excited to build my first pc soon
Same
All I have left to buy is the 6800 xt, motherboard, and psu
Z490 boards in particular @fossil halo
So which cpu do I buy amd still unless someone creates me another list with a $900 budget that’ll let me game stream and video editing
Amd
Amd better for budget and just as good if not better than intel
The 5000 series cpus beat intel overall
Pretty awesome really
@fossil halo which cpu do I buy? Out of the ryzen 5
Can someone find me a Ryzen cpu for $50
How much you spending on a cpu @ornate solstice
full system budget would help too
Just out of the ryzen 5 series idc which one
5 series?
Get the ryzen 5 5600x it is way better and 300 bucks
Yeah well the 5600x is easy to get if you try
Ryzen 5 5600 😏
I got one easily
I don’t think it works with my build does it?
They go in stock constantly
@ornate solstice No it works, you just have to update something very easy
I just don’t buy it cuz money drier then my girlfriend 
Idk anything about PCs so what would I have to update?
@ornate solstice Click on the see details thing for why it’s incompatible
Yep just an easy bios update
All you do is when you finish building it just watch a YouTube video about updating bios
Very very simple @ornate solstice
and if you do not end up getting a 5600x please do not pay the $270 that the r5 3600 is currently on ur list
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bYVg3Z genuine thoughts?
@ornate solstice Ok then put a ryzen 7 3700x on your list and buy it right now
Umm ok
are you just gaming with this computer smallz?
Sorry i was just really worried about the cpu you were gonna get
@vital warren is nixeus a good brand?
never heard of them
Thanks
Its on newegg
@vital warren gaming video editing and streaming
@carmine turret yeah for your budget and what you’ll be doing definitely 3700x
Ok thanks
Have fun!
@vital warren
Whats the difference between 1600 and 1600af
and whichever is better whats the difference with it and a 3100
Thanks
not really a good price considering its last gen @ornate solstice
so i was tasked with building a $700 system
and it came down to this
or this
for 100$ more
but a fair bit better
1650 super is way better
PSU's arent reliable, but cant get one at this budget i feel like
gtx 1050 ti is kinda gabrage
you could probably find a better used card for the price of that gtx 1050 ti
true
on facebook marketplace or something
also, its right in that awkwards budget spot
also
not at all
i used just hard drive for years
it really wasnt bad
people just think it is
I mean it wouldnt be bad
because thats what everyone says
but it isnt great
probably the 3100
its like, 7 seconds max difference in loading times
thats what i saw in the comparison i watched
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/bYVg3Z thoughts?
first hand?
no, yt vid
but its a $550 budget
yeah but ssd prices have come down over the years
535 specifically
Does it matter which slot my gpu goes it?
