no no do 3060

#

3060 so good

stoic island
#

Leaks are only leaks, not real perf numbers, if that's what you're on about.

tepid roost
#

I'm not on about anything

stoic island
#

Please clarify then.

tepid roost
#

I don't know much about the 3060 but I remember hearing it was better than 2080 super, but if those are leaks then I'll just get a 3070

#

Thank you trev and Mr1111

stoic island
#

Nvidia hasn't even officially announced it, so all performance you hear about so far are only leaks.

#

And it looks like the 3060ti is the one that'll be released, we have box designs from multiple sources for the 3060ti

tepid roost
#

Yes

#

@little osprey did you say my build was fine I should just do an sn750 ssd?

still bay
#

why h510?????

stoic island
#

That build wise, I'd get 3600c16 ram if possible, like a kit of Ballistix 3600c16 is 75usd. I'd get a better case, anything from a MX330-g air if budget is tight, Meshify C on sale at a similar price right now, or TD500 mesh/P400a/P500a/Lancool ii mesh/etc

tepid roost
#

Because airflow doesn't matter for this

still bay
#

whaaaaa????

#

why doesnt airflow matter?

tepid roost
#

Already said I don't need overclocking

still bay
#

still...

tepid roost
#

And it won't run hot

stoic island
#

Airflow doesn't just matter for overclocking.

#

Stock can run hot.

still bay
#

yeah

#

especially stock cooler

stoic island
#

It's still a lot of heat that needs to be dissipated.

tepid roost
#

Gimme a good aircooler

#

I'll put it on for him

stoic island
#

I'd just change the case

still bay
#

yeah...

stoic island
#

Half decent case + Stock cooler will work fine

tepid roost
#

Then I'll get meshify c

still bay
#

whywould u purposefully get a bad case

stoic island
#

Alright.

still bay
#

u dont even need to go that extreme

stoic island
#

TBH I don't like H510 for looks or for airflow or anything

sinful hornet
#

meshify c do be nice tho

stoic island
#

Meshify C is nice

still bay
#

im not a fan of it

sinful hornet
#

h510 is... too clean...

stoic island
#

it's just a box

still bay
#

it gets boring over time

#

i have one

sinful hornet
#

nr600 is what you should get for airflow if you like the looks of the h510

tepid roost
#

H510 isn't bas lol

#

Bad

#

It's just not made for airflow or whatever

stoic island
#

I don't like it for airflow or looks

tepid roost
#

Just for looks

sinful hornet
#

but the nr600 is better

stoic island
#

so it's just a useless case for me

sinful hornet
#

and looks basically the same

#

just

still bay
#

my man

sinful hornet
#

holes

stoic island
#

either way

still bay
#

the main points of case is looks and airflow

#

h510 lacks in both

stoic island
#

we can agree on a different case

#

You can still like the h510 if you wish

tepid roost
#

Meshify c it is

#

H510 is just clean

#

But not great airflow

still bay
#

]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]-\

sinful hornet
#

nr600 looks the same if you like the "clean" look

tepid roost
#

So I'll get different ram

#

And meshify c

stoic island
#

Otherwise it's fine

tepid roost
#

There

stoic island
#

that works as long as the price stays around the same

#

RM 850 is usually more expensive, but decent rn

tepid roost
#

Rm850 is 6$ cheaper then 750 atm

#

We'll see later on tho

whole harbor
#

All the gpus out of stock

tepid roost
#

This'll be for later dulvn

little osprey
#

@tepid roost what will you be doing on the computer? just wondering bc you might want to wait for a 5600x if you are gaming

tepid roost
#

Gaming

#

I thought about 5600x

#

I might see about that

#

Idk if the guy is wanting to wait tho

little osprey
#

vital warren
#

cpu / gpu isn't good rn

plush mist
#

uhhh thats a very vague question @little osprey

sinful hornet
#

its right between dedicated gpu and integrated

vital warren
#

with a 600 build?

#

uh

ember creek
#

ye

vital warren
#

like 3100 and 1650s?

#

vital warren
#

i wouldn't buy new under 600

sinful hornet
#

1650s and 3100 for sure

plush mist
sinful hornet
#

thats the perfect budget combo

#

theres a range of like, 490-570 ish thats kinda like a no mans land

plush mist
#

nice list

sinful hornet
#

right between integrated and dedicated

ember creek
#

hey also @vital warren should i get msi meg x570 ace

#

for another build

sinful hornet
#

as far as i remember, that boards quite overpriced

#

yes

#

it is

ember creek

but is ti good

vital warren
sinful hornet
#

can get like, a maximus for cheaper

#

or an aorus master

ember creek
#

hey also @vital warren should i get msi meg x570 ace

#

vital warren
ember creek
#

#

yah

vital warren
#

what cpu are you using ?

ember creek

sinful hornet
#

taichi is nice too

ember creek
#

sinful hornet
#

bruh

vital warren
#

yeah you don't need that good of a mobo

#

keep it under 200

ember creek
#

why

sinful hornet
#

you dont need a fukin ACE for that

whole harbor
#

BRO IM DED

ember creek
#

i might chnage the cou

#

cou

#

cpu

whole harbor
#

THE WHOLE STOCK OF THE 3100 IS GONE

sinful hornet
#

you can use like, a $100 mobo for that

whole harbor
#

BRUHHHH

sinful hornet
#

what

#

how

ember creek
#

ok chillllllllllllllllllll

sinful hornet
#

jesus

whole harbor
#

NO IDEA

sinful hornet
#

canadia still has it tho

vital warren
#

if you want something that looks nice and is decent for a 5600x just get like a msi mpg b550 or whatever it is

#

the 150 one

ember creek
#

i was going to get the B550 gaming edge

sinful hornet
#

the b550 aorus pro is nice too

ember creek
#

one

#

can u guys build me a 600 budget build

#

that look cool for gaming

#

and outside look

vital warren
#

yeah do not focus on looks for that cheap of a build

vital warren
#

that will get you nowhere

ember creek
#

ok

#

canu guys make another 600 build

vital warren
#

something like this

#

but ignore the gpu

#

placeholder for better 1650s when prices r normal

ember creek
#

ok

#

is there a bettr ram i can get

little osprey
#

Ayy

#

If you could go over and go woth 667 dollars

#

This is pre good

vital warren
#

uh

#

no ssd...

#

and don't put an r5 3600 in this cheap of a build

little osprey
#

Oh oop

#

Ik

#

But I was at 500 before so

#

I just jammed that in

vital warren
#

and just get a used rx 570 for 100 or something

ember creek
#

ok

#

why shouldnt the mobo

#

msi meg

#

@vital warren

vital warren
#

overkill for a 5600x

#

can run that on a 100 board

ember creek
#

so what happend if i buy

#

would somethg bad happen

little osprey
#

I just pooped on your build

vital warren
#

no it's just overkill awesome

#

it's not bad

just bad for budget reasons

little osprey
ember creek
#

ok

vital warren
#

yeah do not buy that

#

massive

#

no

ember creek
#

ok

little osprey
#

Lol

#

What did I do wrong now

#

Psu I assume

ember creek
#

is the msi B550 gaming edge good

little osprey
#

Not worth

ember creek
#

also @vital warren

little osprey
#

For budget build

ember creek
#

cani get unbaned from my other acount

vital warren
#

no reason for the apu when you have a dedicated gpu, too much on storage for the price and a bad ssd, i wouldn't buy rx 570 new

little osprey
vital warren
#

??

#

i'm not staff

#

please no massive

#

that's bad

little osprey
#

Ok

#

What’s bad

#

The storage and gpu

ember creek
vital warren

Gimme sec

ember creek

#

No

#

And yes

Hey can anyone help my build a pc , I have a prebuilt but it's pretty bad , I'm getting a and ryzen 7 3700 , already have a graphics card and and storage but need every thing else. And have a 700-750$ budget

little osprey
#

What gpu

static plume
#

Radeon rx 580

little osprey
#

Umm

#

Hmmm

#

Gimme sec

static plume
#

Mainly need help with the mother board

little osprey
#

@static plume is that with monitors and mouse and keyboard and headset

static plume
#

Yeah

little osprey
#

Ok

#

I can try

#

What keyboard do you want

#

What hz monitor

#

And do you want headset with mic built in

cursive wharf
#

potentially, tho I havent seen a g3 worth its price for a little while now cuz you can just buy a higher wattage PSU for the same price. Also depends on how far past the safe limits you're pushing it. Might just harm the PSU in the process

little osprey
#

And what mouse

static plume
#

Oh my bad I already have that stuff , sorry I misunderstood

little osprey
#

Ok

#

So

#

U don’t need any monitors

#

Any of that

static plume
#

Nope

little osprey
#

Ok

#

Case fans?

#

@static plume

static plume
#

What do you mean by case fans ?

little osprey
#

Like more fans

#

Like pc case fans

static plume
#

Oh , yeah

little osprey
#

So do you need any

static plume
#

Yes

little osprey
#

Ok

#

Do you want rgb on them

static plume
#

Yeah , but it's ok if they dont

little osprey
#

Ok

halcyon swallow
#

I dont have thermal paste I heard tooth paste will work but for a short term

#

Is that tru?

stoic island
#

@cursive wharf hm afaik ocp tripping from high transient response cards are just spikes, correct?

little osprey
#

@static plume

cursive wharf
#

spikes can still be harmful to PSU/GPU. Like with some EVGA 3090 and 3080(?) cards spiking too high and blowing fuses on the cards themselves

#

XC3/FTW3, whatever was the highest end card for EVGA

#

@stoic island

little osprey
static plume
#

@little osprey ok , is that the best motherboard you recommend then?

little osprey
stoic island
#

Interesting

#

Kinpin maybe?

#

Tho I would think kinpin power delievery would be just

#

overkill overall

#

@little osprey no need for extra fans, otherwise good

halcyon swallow
#

Yeah I uhh took off the heatsink and I dont have any thermalpaste ty bruv I’m just dum

little osprey
#

He wanted some

static plume
#

@little osprey oh ok so I don't need the fans and is that the best motherboard?

little osprey
#

Ya without spending too much and those fans will improve airflow

static plume
#

I could spend more like 200 on the mother board

little osprey
#

And u will save a lot of money and that money could go to gpu

static plume
#

Oh ok cause I was recommended this one (ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus) which was what I was originally going to get , and is my gpu not that great then ?

little osprey
#

Oh your gpu is great just I meant later on

static plume
#

Oh ok cool

little osprey
#

Or you could use that saved money on new stuff like to make your setup cleaner

#

Or like just save it

#

Or upgrade later on

static plume
little osprey
#

That’s a good mobo just expensive and x570 not really worth it

#

And ram is ok

cursive wharf
#

@stoic island no kingpin is fine afaik, it was FTW3 tho that had the issues

#

apparently can be fixed via vBIOS update, but idk

#

was with their recent release of the "XOC" vBIOS update for 500w the issue started happening

stoic island
#

huh

#

thought they were tuning down the boosting and power behavior over that whole 'caps being bad' thing

static plume
little osprey
#

B550 is the best currently and that mobo is fine

#

Actually really good

static plume
#

Ok thank you 👌

little osprey
#

Np

ember badger
little osprey
#

Don’t know that currency but that’s a amazing gpu

#

Gpu

static plume
little osprey
#

Uhh

#

Gimme sec

static plume
cursive wharf
#

boosting was tuned down, but cuz of Strix being at 480w and theirs being at 450w they pushed to 500w. Allows for some more overhead, tho spikes are out of control now and it can spike to a lot more then 500w. I think I heard of 650w spikes? Cant remember now. Either way some FTW3 cards have been getting some blown fuses since then, might just be bad batch of fuses, bad vBIOS, or both. @stoic island

#

Anyone know of a good but cheap cpu cooler I don’t need one but just want one

sinful hornet
#

do you want one thats good looking, or just works well?

ornate solstice
#

Both

#

But not expensive

sinful hornet
#

theres the gammax gt BK

lyric thistle
#

Stock coolers are adequate, and require no further investment than the price of the CPU

ornate solstice
#

Ooo I like that one thanks

lyric thistle
#

For CPUs which come with

ornate solstice
#

Like I said I don’t need one but just want one that’ll look good

#

I have a 3700x

lyric thistle
#

Ah

#

Fair

stoic island
#

Wraith prism looks p neat tho

#

the stock cooler with 3700x

ornate solstice
#

Yeah it does

#

Does this come with the wraith cooler

#

@stoic island

stoic island
#

3700x comes with wraith prism

ornate solstice

No matter what?

stoic island
ornate solstice

Ok good thanks

sinful hornet
#

Prism and max are actually really flipping nice looking

#

It’s what I was planning on buying before I discovered the gammax GT lul

still bay
#

the prism looks SICK irl

#

trust me photos dont do it justice

#

also its talelr than u think

little osprey
lyric thistle
#

No

#

Should be like

#

130 or cheaper

#

Is that USD?

glacial umbra
#

is a seagate Barracuda Q1 SSD anygood?

little osprey
#

Yeah it is USD

lyric thistle
#

Can't say @glacial umbra

#

There's no info about it on the SSD spreadsheet

#

Beyond the fact that it's QLC

little osprey
#

Should I wait after the holidays then? It will probably be less expensive then.

lyric thistle
#

So not particularly good quality

#

You should probably buy a 570 used

glacial umbra
#

it's really cheap though

#

like 1TB for HELLA cheap

little osprey
#

Where would I buy one at? eBay?

glacial umbra
#

black friday deal from trusted seller

lyric thistle
#

Probably eBay

#

What is the drive going for?

#

@glacial umbra ?

glacial umbra
#

20 CAD

#

960 GB

#

@lyric thistle

deft harbor
#

bruh WTF am i seeing a 5700 xt for $1200

lyric thistle
#

Lmao go for it

glacial umbra
#

that's a steal lol

lyric thistle
#

I wouldn't use it as your boot drive, but as some extra storage it could see a bit of use

glacial umbra
#

I could probably pick up a decent boot drive for cheap now though

jagged ember
#

Idk it has qlc in place of dram

#

If you really want it yeah, use it only as file storage

#

Not for games or nothin

#

Will slow down as it fills up

little osprey
#

You can get a 500gb Skhynx gold for 45 usd on Amazon right now

deft harbor
#

yo guys i have question

little osprey
#

What’s a decent price for a used 1070?

deft harbor
jagged ember
#

Check ebay

#

1070 I think still goes for decent amount

little osprey
#

@deft harbor can I get some drugs

deft harbor
#

sure

jagged ember
#

Lol no selling here

#

That's clearly the biggest concern

deft harbor
#

ye

#

but fr tho can u guys answer my question

little osprey
stoic island
#

1660 super, I'd get a 1080p 144hz 24in panel

#

IPS preferably

deft harbor
#

ok thx

stoic island
#

VA is a decent option

little osprey
#

Best buy has some good deals on monitors and peripherals right now

#

For a 1660 super, a 75 hz monitor will be just fine.

glacial umbra
#

man I get it's not the best ssd or anything but 15 USD for a 960GB ssd is good

lyric thistle
#

I think you could find a use for it

deft harbor
#

wait so can a 1660s use gsync

lyric thistle
#

It's nice to have extra storage in any form

glacial umbra
#

yeah for sure

little osprey
deft harbor
#

oh ok bet

lyric thistle

You have my blessing lmao

Worst buy 😳 😎 😎 😎 😎 hahahah what a scathing review amirite

little osprey
#

If you have the money

jagged ember
#

Are you using that P2 as a boot drive?

deft harbor
#

yep

#

for my ames

jagged ember
#

I'd go for p1

#

P2 has no dram

deft harbor
#

ok

stoic island
#

p2 use hmb

jagged ember
#

It shouldn't cost that much more

stoic island
#

dram be superior

jagged ember
#

Dram guud

#

P1 actually does have it which I find weird

#

Considering the naming

stoic island
#

yea ikr

#

dunno why they would step from dram to HMB for the 2nd iteration

jagged ember
#

If anything

#

P1 should have been budget option

little osprey
#

180 for a 3100?

jagged ember
#

P2 should be the one with dram

stoic island
#

if P2 had TLC and dram, that would've been great

#

but no

#

TLC and HMB

lyric thistle
#

3100 price is really volatile right now

stoic island
#

it's sad

little osprey
#

I would get the i3-10100 for $100 on Amazon

#

Not really a good time to buy pc parts rn

lyric thistle
#

It's been on the climb and drop for a couple days

stoic island
#

it was 130$ on BHP yesterday

jagged ember
#

What's it's msrp lol

lyric thistle
#

100 probably

little osprey
#

Its usually 118 on pc part picker

stoic island
#

manufacturer suggested retail price

jagged ember
#

Jesus

stoic island
#

basically, base price

jagged ember
#

80 dollars over

stoic island
#

god I'm tired

#

can't read

jagged ember
#

That's almost like 1x more

lyric thistle
#

It ok mr1

whole harbor
#

@deft harbor the 3100 is at an all time high so wait for it to go to $99-$110 and gpu can go for $230 when in stock. Motherboard could have been cheaper. Ram was way to overpriced. Case was overkill. U can now upgrade ur parts and get better ones. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/m8LCwz

little osprey
#

$100 for the i3-10100 on Amazon is a great deal, with comparable performance to the 3300x.

jagged ember
#

Thats

stoic island
#

just sad about the Intel board pricing part

#

otherwise 10100 would be great

jagged ember
#

Is the 10100 a thing lol

stoic island
#

ya

jagged ember
#

Idk intel

stoic island
#

4c8t

deft harbor
#

@whole harbor thx but might chnge cases tho

lyric thistle
#

The Ryzen counterparts have much better all core

whole harbor
#

I JUST want them to put 3300x back in stock peepoSadSip

#

@deft harbor sure

#

One sec

little osprey
#

Yeah, but for gaming it doesn’t really matter

lyric thistle
#

3300X never existed, we should forget about it smh

jagged ember
#

Lol totally

#

What's the pricing on that, anyways

whole harbor
#

@deft harbor the case u got was way to overkill

#

With ur budget

#

U might as well

#

Get a higher level gpu and cpu

#

Ill do it real quick

little osprey
#

You could also get the 2600x for $150 if you want an AMD 6c cpu

jagged ember
#

Zen+ tho

little osprey
#

I'd get a 5600xt but if you want nvenc and reliability go 1660 super

jagged ember
#

I'd rather get zen2 or above personally

whole harbor
lyric thistle
#

4c8t is still nice for basic users :)

little osprey
#

Tbh, I think the i3-10100 is the best deal rn. Since nobody likes intel it is cheap 😂

jagged ember
#

4c8t is solid

whole harbor
#

any good gpus that cost $200-$280 rn?

#

And cpus

#

That work for b450

jagged ember
#

Why not b550 ds3h or pro 4

#

Or something like that

#

Maybe a vdh 550

little osprey
#

Imagine 3 years ago. Everyone would think we are stupid for saying 4c8t is “ok”.

#

3100, 3300x, 3600xt

whole harbor
#

cause im not gonna upgrade

#

@little osprey imma pretend u never said 3300z

little osprey
whole harbor
#

3300x

lyric thistle

@little osprey okay buddy is that a gpu?

#

@little osprey never speak again

little osprey

Oh sorry

little osprey

jagged ember
#

Lmao

whole harbor
#

if they do

#

Im never getting one

#

LMFAO

deft harbor
#

@short parcelvin do u think the 3600 and the 5600 xt would drop prices

whole harbor
#

possible

little osprey
jagged ember
#

Oop you pinged rando

deft harbor
#

yea

whole harbor
#

@deft harbor asrock had a 5600xt for $290 rn

#

3600 should drop to norm price of

#

$200

#

lower is possible

#

3100 is hella overpriced rn

#

WHYYY

little osprey
#

Don't buy a pc rn

little osprey
whole harbor

too late

little osprey
#

Terrible prices

whole harbor

Alr have a b450

Alr ordered everything except gpu and cpu

Ic

whole harbor
#

TO LATE LUL

little osprey
whole harbor
#

no

jagged ember
#

Zen + tho

little osprey
#

Well the gpu and cpu are the worst rn lmao

jagged ember
#

I'd rather not

whole harbor
#

I migjt buy a 2600x lowkey

little osprey
#

Name me another good sub $150 cpu lol

jagged ember
#

This is true also

#

Market sucks

whole harbor
#

WHY

#

HWYYY

deft harbor
#

@whole harbor i might just stay with the sapphire since they r a better known amd gpu company i guess

whole harbor
#

@deft harbor u could say rhatt

jagged ember
#

dulvn just be mindful of return periods

little osprey
#

Just wait till prices drop

jagged ember
whole harbor
#

@jagged ember to much work

jagged ember
#

If your part is broke

#

You can't get replace if it's past that

whole harbor
#

LUL

jagged ember
#

But I guess, rma is a thing

whole harbor
#

frick it

#

Im getting a 3090

#

And intel xeon

deft harbor
#

how much do u think the 5700 xt would go down to

whole harbor
#

Lul

little osprey
#

Good luck

whole harbor
little osprey
deft harbor
#

dang

little osprey
#

You would probably need at least $100,000 to have a chance at winning an eBay auction of a 3090

jagged ember
#

Just go there to up the bid

whole harbor
#

im rich

#

I have $700

jagged ember
#

Wow

whole harbor
#

i can get a 3090

little osprey

good deal

gusty sinew
#

Hello, I am considering to buy an i9 10850k + ASUS ROG Maximus VII Hero (WIFI) for $764

#

any thoughts on this?

little osprey
#

Why don’t you wait and get a 5950x?

#

Or a 5900x. I forgot the pricing lol

deft harbor
#

why dont u get a 5000 series chip then get at least a b550

little osprey
#

B550 + 5th gen Ryzen is the best for that price point

stoic island
#

@gusty sinew I'd personally look into other mobos, 10850k on it's own is ~430usd

#

a good Z490 board would just be around 200usd

little osprey
#

I got a Z490 for $110 brand new.

whole harbor
stoic island
#

depends on the board really

#

some z490 boards are fairly bad and I'd rather not use em for a 10850k

little osprey
#

I am going to put my i5-10400 in it 😂

gusty sinew
#

i want a quality board

#

i would have waited for 5000 series, but there is none in stock

deft harbor
#

do u need the pc now

gusty sinew
#

i am looking for black friday deals

stoic island
stoic island
#

z490-plus wifi for 200usd

#

it's gonna be quite a lot cheaper than that bundle

little osprey
deft harbor
whole harbor
#

I alr bought pog

stoic island
#

lol

gusty sinew
#

or should i go for the i9 9900k

stoic island
#

Nah, 9900k is a step back in core count and single core perf and all

little osprey
#

^

stoic island
#

If you were aiming for 10900k perf, might as well go 10850k+decent z490 board, or like 5900x+decent b550 board

gusty sinew
#

thank you.. I actually am building my first cpu

#

i might be overkilling the build, since i only use it to play league of legends, excel, watch youtube, and stream

#

based on that knowledge, you think i am building well or should i downgrade?

little osprey
#

Downgrade

stoic island
#

Well, that's quite overkill.

#

What's the overall budget?

#

I can make a quick list

gusty sinew
#

$ not issue

#

but practical

#

like less than 2.5k

little osprey
#

A i3-10100, a 3600, or a i5-10400f should be just fine.

#

Probably get the 3600x

stoic island
#

a bit overkill wouldn't hurt, I'll make an overkill list :D

little osprey
#

Get a cheaper motherboard

whole harbor
stoic island
#

@gusty sinew Do you have a monitor already?

gusty sinew
#

thank you guys for assisting, i appreciate the input

little osprey
#

The kraken m22 is a toasty boi

stoic island
gusty sinew
#

no i don't have a monitor, i was looking for a 1440p, IPS, one

#

maybe higher than 165 hz

stoic island
#

M27q is a great choice

stoic island
#

N1 no

#

don't we have a :N1goboom: emote

cursive flare
#

frls?

stoic island
#

(it doesn't go boom, but it's bad)

lucid cloud
#

whats the recommended psu wattage for a 3070

little osprey
stoic island
#

MP34 is actually same quality as SN750 really

cursive flare
stoic island
#

it's the same controller, both has dram.

#

Phison E12

little osprey
#

Oh I didn’t know that

stoic island
#

:)

little osprey
#

You could get the heat sink version of the SN 750 though.

#

Just for looks

stoic island
#

No need for heatsink on a PCIe 3.0 drive

lyric thistle
#

what about the P1 lol

#

people like to say it gets hot and throttles

little osprey
#

The controller on my 970 evo plus gets really hot

stoic island
lucid cloud
little osprey
#

Yeah its a great drive

stoic island
#

@lyric thistle dunno man, it really shouldn't throttle unless it has like no airflow

stoic island
#

@little osprey VA panel

#

m27q is IPS

little osprey
#

Oh

#

One of the best pci e 3.0 drives but a bit more expensive

gusty sinew
#

@stoic island Thank you. what are your thoughts on the following: HP Omen IPS 27", Dell S2721 DGF,

stoic island
#

First one is decent, I prefer M27q over it

#

second one just looks really expensive

lyric thistle
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

little osprey
#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

lyric thistle
#

shruggie chain shruggie chain

gusty sinew
#

okay

deft harbor
#

do u guys know a good side moniter cuz im gonna do for a dual moniter setup

gusty sinew
#

Dell S2721QS 27 Inch 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) IPS Ultra-Thin Bezel Monitor, AMD FreeSync (HDMI, DisplayPort), VESA Certified, Silver

#

what about this one?

#

is it not gaming, that is why it is cheaper?

lyric thistle
#

lol there's a displays channel :)

stoic island
#

It's 4k 60hz

lyric thistle
#

(not to dissuade you from using this one for displays, channel discipline is lax here)

stoic island
#

60hz makes it not so nice for gaming and all

#

@lyric thistle tbh build-chat is good foreverything

#

mainly because people don't really have questions about only one catagory

lyric thistle
#

yes yes

gusty sinew
#

@stoic island how do you think league of legends performs on a 60hz?

stoic island
#

@gusty sinew well, performance completely depends on the PC, the only thing monitor does is display the frames the PC produces

#

60hz means it'll only be able to display 60 frames per second, without getting into the weird and confusing bits

#

It's just not a great time

gusty sinew
#

right.. i was going with a high end build, but i guess i shouldn't now

stoic island
#

144hz is preferred for gaming for a reason.

gusty sinew
#

thank you

stoic island
#

hm? 1440p144hz is the sweet spot for high end in my opinion lel @gusty sinew

gusty sinew
#

yeah, what about cpu

#

im confused about that

stoic island
#

Well, for gaming you don't need a lot of cores, just fast cores

gusty sinew
#

i can't determine which one to get i9 10th gen, or ryzen 5000s

stoic island
#

a 10600k with 6c12t will do you just fine

#

the only real difference between 10900k and 10600k is 4 more cores

little osprey
#

Well at least the 10900k is in stock

hazy rune
#

I’d get 9900k over 10600k

stoic island
#

Yea Ryzen 5000 is all out of stock sadly

#

@hazy rune meh, I like 10600k better

formal cosmos
#

Guys

stoic island
#

mainly for z490 upgradability

formal cosmos
little osprey
#

Another paper launch

stoic island
#

and slightly better single core perf

hazy rune
#

I agree, but most people don’t upgrade every gen

stoic island
#

also, didn't they get rid of some of the security vulnerabilities of 9th gen with 10th gen? don't remembernow

hazy rune
#

They removed hyper threading on 9th gen

#

For the security vulnerabilities

#

Supposedly

stoic island
#

@hazy rune Ofc not, the point is having another generation of upgradability, it's like today being able to upgrade like from say a 8700k to 9700k

#

it's a nice to have

hazy rune
#

Yeah but that’s... a bad upgrade? Idk

#

It’s an option

stoic island
#

well, more like imagine 10600k to 11700k

#

in the future

hazy rune
#

Fair

stoic island
#

but it's a nice-to-have thing

little osprey
#

Is upgrading from a 9400f to a 9700f worth it?

stoic island
#

I don't like being stuck at the 'top' for the platform with 9900k

gusty sinew
#

@stoic island what about GPU's for my background?

formal cosmos
#

So...

#

Should I get the monitor?

hazy rune
#

@little osprey probably not

stoic island
#

5700xt is about as good as you're going to get for good price to performance today

#

(in stock)

#

3070 3080 6800 6800xt all out of stock

little osprey
#

Right now I'm cpu bound so I'm looking to upgrade

stoic island
#

and likely will be for the next few months

hazy rune
#

And you’re on a super old i3?

#

Get zen 3 if you can

little osprey
#

No my name is a joke

hazy rune
#

You never can tell...

little osprey
#

9400f and a 5700xt

hazy rune
#

9700k is $200 at microcenter

#

I don’t know how much 9700f is

rapid orbit
#

thoughts on the 10900f?

#

it's 364 on amazon and idk how it stacks up against the 10850k which is 430 on newegg

gusty sinew
#

i also have a question about how to determine what RAM is compatible with the motherboard. I see a lot of RAM on sale for black friday, not sure if it would work well for.. lets say ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VII HERO

you have to be trolling

I’m not

#

@zinc grotto so you jealous?

zinc grotto
#

It would perform worse for my uses

ornate solstice
#

Imagine actually buying it tho😂 I ain’t got that type of money to be wasting on a pc

zinc grotto
#

lol

ornate solstice
#

And who in the damn world would need 8 monitors

zinc grotto
#

I had 4 at one time in a 2x2 setup, didn't like having to look up at the top two, but it was useful for monitoring systems

#

@ornate solstice I can't think of a single use

ornate solstice
#

I had a 4 monitor setup before I moved and I gave them to my cousins

#

And bought 3 instead

zinc grotto
#

I like 3 for gaming

ornate solstice
#

Same

zinc grotto
#

Gaming monitor in the middle, normal 2 on sides

ornate solstice
#

I didn’t like looking up so I have my biggest one in the middle and then my second biggest on my left and my smallest on my right

#

All 3 were gaming monitors

zinc grotto
#

Right the looking up is annoying

#

and no monitor in the center

#

I don't have the $$ to waste on 3 gaming monitors

#

But all 3 are 27"

#

Middle is 2k @ 144hz g-sync compatible

ornate solstice
#

One was my brothers old one and the other 2 I bought because I originally had 2 rigs one in my room and the other in my office

zinc grotto
#

ok

#

makes more sense

#

yeah the two side monitors on mine are what i was using previously, just swapped out the middle monitor for a gaming monitor

ornate solstice
#

Makes sense

#

I use the one on my right to pull up my stream and the one on my left is usually discord

#

But I like really need to buy new headphones cause my beats aren’t good anymore

#

I use my beats mixr that’s the model bet you’ve never heard of them

zinc grotto

My headphones are cheapos

3k for a build is a waste of money imo

2k causenof i9

zinc grotto

i9 was like 600

timber swallow

But still without monitors 2k just for pc

#

Idk what the hell ur using that for

zinc grotto
#

memory cost a bit more then

#

but 3090 was basically 2k

timber swallow
#

Why do u need a 3090

zinc grotto

i wanted a 3080, but i saw the 3090 available and it was basically an impulse buy

Unless ur making a AAA game (other exceptions) u do not need a 3090

Someone spent 1mil on a complete water cooled pc

5900x better than i9 and double maybe quad 3090 would be the best

true

idk about 5900x being better than i9

Ok I gtg gotta go deal hunting Black Friday is in a 40 mins

obviously there's plenty of room for improvement, but this is like a dream build

@timber swallow within reason

ornate solstice
#

Have a good one

zinc grotto
#

later

forest sky
#

hows that?

zinc grotto
#

@timber swallow would like to have something full water-cooled. my case air flow isn't the best, zotac for 3090 is not the best, but you can up the clock speeds a lot with no issues

forest sky
#

its overkill a little bit

zinc grotto
#

@forest sky I like it

#

I wanted the founders card so bad

forest sky
#

is that motherbored fine because it has watercool inputs for the Vrms

zinc grotto
#

you mean if you're not watercooling your system?

forest sky
#

yeah

zinc grotto
#

That's a good question

forest sky
#

i like the board but not sure about the inputs there

#

it might be passive cooled i could be wrong

zinc grotto
#

I'd think it would be fine. I've never had any heat issues with vrms, but if it was designed to only be cooled via watercooling, it might be an issue

forest sky
#

yeah because this is my first build also so i wouldnt want anything to go wrong

zinc grotto
#

Seriously?

#

Damn good first build

#

I would go with storage that supports pcie4

#

Hey

#

Hellow

#

@forest sky only if you can get a 1 or 2 tb tho.

#

hey

odd crypt
#

Can u help me

zinc grotto
#

Sure

odd crypt
#

Is this a good build

#

It's for black Friday

zinc grotto
#

I haven't used amd for a few generations, so I'm not sure. I'd change out the video card if you're gaming on it

odd crypt
#

Well

#

I cant finds anything else

#

Can u change it?

zinc grotto
#

Is that your price range for it?
