pcpartpicker.com/list/FqzJq4 ram and cpu are from a prebuilt Ive been uding for 2 years, also should I get the hyper 212 evo or cryorig h7? Ive heard that the fan that comes with the 212 evo is crap
AMDrones think they will actually get 1080Ti performance for $300 LOL That's what they were saying for current Vega and turned out to be a big disappointment.
Carter Perry
>AMDrones think they will actually get 980 performance for $250 LOL 18+ board, mate. This was only 3 years ago so it should be fresh in your mind what generational leaps look like for performance for the price. You're clearly underage if you don't remember 2016 graphics card launches.

Carter Cox
Artic 33, Pure Rock, Artic 13, and H7 are all much better options than the 212 in that order. Unless one is much cheaper than the others, go for the left most option.
pcpartpicker.com/list/247tHh For ~$400 more you could get a 1440p monitor and Vega56 instead. But for your budget, going for 1080p seems better.
What are you even talking about? In 2016, people were perfectly fine for GTX 980 performance for 1080p. 2 and a half years later, it's still fine performance for 1080p. Why are you ignoring the context of the underage retard's baseless claim that it's impossible for a midrange $300 card in 2019 to match 1080-1080ti performance when it's literally been the cadence for decades?
You're just making yourself look more braindead retarded and underage with every post.

Connor Lopez
Should i go for a Ryzen 5 2600 or the first generation Ryzen 7 1700 or 1800? Both on the same price.
Confirmed a samefag spammer just posting to himself, on top of the being underage. Really, this amount of desperation. Thinks if he spams enough, everyone won't realize how clueless he is.
Next year, around the same time as Navi, is likely.
For gaming, 1000 series isn't worth considering. 2600 OC is faster than the 1800X in gaming.
>AMDrones think they will actually get 1080Ti performance for $300 LOL This was always the AMDrone mantra, except it never happens.
AMDrones want a luxury sports car on a second hand Toyota budget, its unrealistic.

>powercolor TUL vega 56 not guaranteed to have samsung memory In my country there's this computer shop which has 2 identical vegas 56 to sell. Literally, nothing is different in description. But one is ~20 euros more expensive. Could it be that one is with samsung memory? Is there any other reason why same card would be more expensive?
I've asked them, but after few days still no response.
The difference won't be worth 20 dollars anyway, stop sperging. More likely than not one of them is factory overclocked
Joshua Smith
both descriptions has same clock speeds and says it's overclocked I'm not assuming, just don't understand why one is cheaper
Eli James
Oh it's the >you're proven wrong (even though no such thing happened, and conversely he's the one who's been proven wrong) guy again So are you banned, but keep evading your ban, or what?
How often does B&H Photo have sales? It's the only place I don't see sales tax for and I want to get a 1080, 1080ti, 2070, or 2080.
Caleb Brown
Actually never mind. That Pentium is a placeholder for a 9900K / 9700K right? Judging by the filename... Are you norwegian?
Caleb Young
That's from /v/ a little while ago isn't it? Had a laugh at that guy.
Lucas Morris
If he is just waiting for a 9900K there isn't really anything bad about it
Grayson Campbell
Why pair such a powerful card and 32gb of RAM with such a puny CPU?
Nolan Nelson
Is there any line from Seasonic that I should be looking at? They have quite a bit (Flagship, FOCUS, PRIME, etc) and there doesn't seem to be any obvious advantage from one other the other.
Easton Rogers
$213 USD (converted) for an RX 580 8GB Aorus, brand new, express shipping. Is this a good deal? I know I can buy used, but warranty is pretty important to me, so was ready to bite the bullet on it, lads. Coming from an R9 270, so it's a good upgrade in regards to performance.

Not bad per say, but just odd. And only if waiting for the 9900k. But then why not just wait? [spoiler]Cant forget the rest of the build either.[/spoiler]
If he had a Pentium lying around I don't see why he wouldn't use it like this meanwhile. I mean he has the Z390 and everything so I'm sure it's for the 9th gen. They are out of stock alot of places.
Is that pic from the same guy? He has good taste in phones
Samuel Gutierrez
Not actually mine, was from another thread. Goes with , though the CPU doesn't match up...

Whatever the board is worth pretty much since at least it's a Z one. $30-$50? Your CPU is worse than a newer Pentium or Athlon 200GE.

Depends on the framerate you're targetting at 1440p. 60-90fps in AAA games, and/or 144 in optimized games? Or don't autistically have to play on max settings which look no better than high settings? Vega56. ~90+ in everything? 1080Ti or 2080Ti.
2x140mm.
Asher Morgan
I've heard you want to go with less bigger fans over more smaller ones to cut down on noise while still getting more or less the same performance.
Caleb Stewart
How is the MEG? I was thinking of getting one but couldn't justify the price for just gayman.
Noah Cooper
1070ti or low end 1080? Looking to spend around 400-450 usd. Will be used for gaming primarily. Which manufactorers are solid? Pny, evga, sapphire, etc. Which ones should i avoid?

what are you trying to attain, frames and fps-wise?
Josiah Mitchell
60+fps on newer titles @ 1440p. 75hz monitor. Dont really care if all my games are hitting 100+fps.
Austin James
I'm trying to make a "console" this is the build: it.pcpartpicker.com/list/3CBXdX 2 fans should be enough,the one thing I'm not sure is the psu. any recommendations?
So we buy this fancy shmansy new Corsair case for my friend's birthday, I open up his old case and these are the internals >goddamnit.jpg I moved all the stuff over as best I could but really dude? You paid $500 for a used micro board ripped from an HP desktop with an i3 and GTX 1050Ti? Anyways I think it came out looking okay, at least if he had a regular ATX board woulda looked much nicer. This propietary piece of crap didn't even fit the universal standoffs, I had to ziptie one of the holes to the chassis LTT-style
and the back the computer wouldn't even post, we got all worried but then I just removed and re-inserted the RAM, worked just fine after that tho you guys don't need to give advice I just wanted to vent about it
Vega56 if you want to get a 144hz Freesync monitor and still get 100+ fps where you can. 1070Ti can be an alright choice with a 75hz monitor.
What a question. No trolling.
uhhh where is your riser and vertcal mount GPU? Why get that case if not for that? >what does Jow Forums think I think you bought RTX so you're dumb.
Ryder Taylor
Is the Red Dragon Vega 56 variant any good? Also what are the chances of cards like it getting big discounts come BF/CM?
Angel Long
Do they still sell 1st gen r3's? Is there a way to install win7 on 2nd gen ones?
Zachary Cook
Lmao wtf is that CPU cooler? Also that's no MATX. That's mDTX or whatever it's called. Basically mITX with one additional slot length.
Yes, it's very good. That or the Pulse. They're obviously not as good as the Nitro, but they're cheap and good for their cost.
Elijah Cook
>X299 >RTX
haha ok
Ethan Carter
Cool, thanks then. How big are the discounts on them usually during these sale times?

Can I build a PC for doing 3D Modeling (no animation) and some light non-AAA/multiplayer gaming for ~$750?

>based 8400 user >8gb ram 2666 (ill add 8 more) should i pair with an 1060 6gb or with rx580?(current price of the 580 its around 1060 3gb prices because 20% off)
Eli Powell
Red Dragon I saw on a limited sale for a few hours on Newegg for $320. Usually it's on sale for $370-$385. Same for the Pulse. Sub-$400 is a pretty good price for them.
The one linked earlier would be more than enough for that.
RX580.
Bentley Lewis
Thinking of upgrading to a Threadripper 2950X (from a 2600k). Does it require some special RAM for better performance or will any cheap DDR4 RAM will work?
(Being cheap.on the RAM because spending all budget in CPU)

gtx 1060 if you do any sort of emulation
otherwise the rx 580

Could be dead and your friend is an absolute retard for wasting $500 like this, actually deserves this to be dead so he learns his lesson.

Ryzen is better
Logan Nelson
You definitely don't want to cheap out on the RAM. Minimum you want is 4x8 DDR4-3000, preferably CL14.
Carter Hughes
>no u
Bentley Wood
1060 if you play any popular modern dx11 games or older dx9 games and/or emulate. Also cuda hardware acceleration support for Adobe applications.
580 if you exclusively play dx12 and/or Vulkan games and don't mind the 1080 tier power consumption
Carter Young
Just in time to get murdered by the R5 3600X along with the rest of Intel's lineup
RAM speed will mostly only matter if you game on it. If you don't game, then some 2666 CL15, 2800 CL16, or equivalent would be fine. If you game, I'd get 2x4 Samsung E-die or 4x8 Samsung B-die depending on if you need 16Gb or 32Gb.
RX580 is still often better in many DX11 games. Especially newer ones. Your examples are all a huge stretch. Literally only reason to get the 1060 is the budget CUDA and Cemu.
Caleb Perry
Minimum ram specs for effectively using a r5 2600 is 2933hz or is it higher? Any other specs to keep in mind?
Liam Watson
>Just in time to get murdered by the R5 3600X along with the rest of Intel's lineup Lol, same story every year
>Lol, same story every year Yeah exactly. Just like how the 2000 series murdered all but one chip in the Coffeelake 1.0 lineup.
Not sure how you think that picture is remotely relevant or contradictory to that statement, though. You don't even have 2000 series chips on there. Pretty poor attempt at shilling to use nearly 2 year old benchmarks because the current ones are so unfavorable to you.
Ian Jones
You can use it at 2933 mhz sure but you'll get the best performance at 3200 mhz CL14

thanks user ill bookmark this parts list & probably swap the 580 for a GTX 1060
Colton Nelson
Nvidia cards especially the 1060 perform massively better in nearly all popular dx11 titles from pubg to fortnite to gta 5 to other demanding games on steamcharts current top 10 lists like monster Hunter world or rust. There is absolutely no reason why anyone shouldn't go with a 1060 if the 580 isn't at least $50+ cheaper. At least the majority of steam gamers knows the 1060 is superior thankfully.
