if he just needs anything and he needs it immediately just grab a 2200g and the cheapest am4 board you can get and throw good parts in it later. throw that used mobo and processor in the cheapest case you can get your hands on along with whatever ram you can get cheap and a hard drive from your junk pile and sell it for $150 on facebook to someone who doesnt know better
Gabriel Smith
None of what you greentexted has ever gone on in my OPs, shithead. Ryzen 3000 isn't getting released for over a month; I'm not taking the R5 2600 out of the OP and I'm not taking the i7 8700K out either, at least not until the release date is closer.
is there a comfy rating in headsets? whats the most comfy wireless headset? g935? arctis pro? i am asking here since hpg hates
Gabriel Gomez
damn im dissapointed, i was hoping for amd to bump up their cores yet again to make ryzen 3600x equivalent to the i9 9900k so i could upgrade to that and get rid of the bottleneck in my pc (i5 4690k and rtx 2070).
Anyone can suggest a good itx casing that can hold 2.5 thiccc graphics card? (Palit 1070 Super Jetsream to be exact)
I wanted to upgrade from my 3770K on a matx board and go SFF when Ryzen 3600 arrives.
Im seeing Obsidian 250D might fit, i doubt the bitfenix prodigy could accept it. Sentry looks very nice but yeah, doesn't look like thicc cards would fit there.
I didn't post that, shithead. Still figuring out how Anonymous works? It doesn't contain my pcpartpicker builds, etc. That's just a quickly edited version of the shitty OP used for the last thread
Must be hard to go through life while being so stupid
Camden Williams
beyerdynamic makes the most comfortable headphones bar none. the dt990s are exceptional. buy a modmic if you need a microphone.
all the gamer branded shit is plagued with poor build quality and garbage sound quality
Adam Myers
pcei 5.0 when?
Nathan Jenkins
I travel a lot and mitigations have destroyed my 7700hq laptop. Want a mini itx build for 120-144hz 1440p.
Thinking- 3700 or 3800 2080 Nvme 3200 cl 16 Thermaltake core v1 mini itx case
If I grab this fella, would I need to get an AMD GPU (currently deciding between rx 590 & GTx 1660) to use FreeSync?
Asher Smith
>24" >curved that's just gonna look weird unless you're sitting 5" from it
Landon Cooper
>nah, their is some other autistic shill that tries his hardest to remove AMD from the OP >its just a (((coincidence))) that we use the same images and both want to cut AMD out of the OP Dig your hole deeper faggot
Reeeaaally. I don’t give a shit about curve to be honest, got another recommendation?
Carson Young
>would I need to get an AMD GPU to use FreeSync? No, Nvidia graphics cards can use Freesync as well now
Mason Mitchell
Do i wait for Navi y/n?
Levi Russell
>tries his hardest to remove AMD from the OP >want to cut AMD out of the OP I don't, shithead. That's why my OP has a huge list of AMD CPUs, and it'll probably be completely AMD once Ryzen 3000 gets released
Get your delusion under control, brainlet
Jacob Edwards
Thanks my doot
Robert Myers
Looking for a 1440p or higher res graphics card? Wait. If not, don't
Was about to buy a b450 mobo, R5 2600x, and rtx 2070. Is it worth just waiting for the x570 and R5 3600x? How much more will they cost and is the jump in performance that much better?
Ryder Thompson
The Meshify C case doesn't need any additional fans when I just run a relatively light build, right?
Luke Smith
It depends on what you do, with the money to go from b450 to x570 and 2600x to 3600x you could jump from 2070 to 2080 if you go for the cheap cpu + mobo, if it's for gaming then going for the better GPU is almost always the better option.
Lincoln Cruz
Definitely wait. Im in the same position as you except im doing 2080
Thanks for the advice, I guess I'll wait and see on Navi and benchmarks. I'm just eager to upgrade from my garbage i5-4690k and 970.
William Perez
What're the expected costs of X570 motherboards? Would it be more worth it to get a X470?
Aiden Bell
If you're buying Navi you'll need a 1440p or better monitor as well. Navi isn't for 1080p
Nolan Bailey
Will I be able to put a 3900x in my MSI Mortar B450m? That 12 cores look sexy.
Blake Ortiz
attention plz
building my first rig here, what kind of problems am i going to have running an outdated mobo and CPU? I have a secondhand msi z87-g45 and an i5 4570
am i gonna have problems running them with a gtx 1050?
Nolan Roberts
no
Chase Murphy
Also good to know. Was planning on getting a 1440p monitor anyways.
Adam Ross
why would a dual channel 16GB of 2x8GB RAM be better than one 16GB stick? distribute the load into two channels instead of one so it's more efficient?
would 2 dual channels be quad channel or 2 dual channels?
Levi Diaz
I am looking at building a small form factor ITX htpc build to replace my laptop. I want to use the 2400g because of its integrated graphics and replace it with the 3400g once it is available later this year. What is a good ITX motherboard for me to get that will be compatible with the upcoming 3400g ?
Because i dont think it releases until almost 2020 and i kind of need something now
James James
alright, i mean there is a possibility I will just use the mobo (thinkin MSI B450 plus AC) and put it into a larger case with a dedicated GPU and Ryzen 3000 series chip without the integrated so I really just want to make sure the mobo will be good to go and forward compatible
Andrew Rodriguez
What goal are you trying to accomplish where RGB is MORE important than the performance of the computer itself for a given budget?
Lincoln Martin
Buy them when they are on sale.
Isaac Howard
>why would a dual channel 16GB of 2x8GB RAM be better than one 16GB stick? Double the bandwidth
>would 2 dual channels be quad channel or 2 dual channels? Two dual channel
Leo Johnson
You'll be fine. I have a curved 24" monitor and it werks for me.
Samuel Harris
>What goal are you trying to accomplish where RGB is MORE important than the performance of the computer itself for a given budget? RGB inflates the price by roughly 10%, which would give no performance benefit if redirected towards that aim.
The case, motherboard, psu are gonna stay in the future and are the foundation for upgrades, while already doing their aesthetic job.
X570 is worthless. A whole new chipset will come out before you can use it's features.
Carter Brown
>gtx 1050 the only problem you are going to have is shit tier performance-value and a need to upgrade in about a year from now t. dumb stupid idiot that bought the gtx 1050
Sebastian Howard
snagged a carbide 270r nonwindowed version at a nearby surplus shop for 19 usd from my local currency. Pretty good deal considering it's pretty much brand new sans the original packaging and i ain't gonna use the side panel anyways.
Elijah Butler
>RGB >future
lol. your machine will look outdated by the end of the year.
Austin Carter
When can we realistically expect budget friendlier chipsets like the A and B series?
Elijah Sullivan
is now a bad time to upgrade my cpu and mobo?
Aiden Davis
>non bugged USB3 isn't usable lolwut? That's the best feature of X570 - no retarded ASMedia bugs.
Noah Hill
USB works fine for everyone else using B450 and X470.
Jaxson Barnes
I have a keyboard with red led and a mouse with blue It still kind of bugs me no matter how good the mouse is even after several years
Jordan Mitchell
The on-die USB3 works fine. The Chipset USB3 only works properly if you install ASMedia drivers bundled with AMD's chipset drivers. This is because the chipsets are bugged and require signal redrivers which aren't enabled by default.
That's why AMD ditched ASMedia in the first place. That's why the initial Ryzen 1xxx launch was delayed from ~Nov 2016 to March 2017. That's why even Intel users with ASMedia USB3 chips are advised by Valve/HTC/Occulus to not use ASMedia USB3 ports for VR.
ASMedia sucks.
Sebastian Butler
>27" >1440p/144hz >vidya >$500 budget What kind of monitor panel should I get, and should it be curved or not?
Cameron Russell
I usually buy 2nd hand components. I haven't shopped for a GPU since the mining craze. Does buying a card previously used for mining really matter?
The same old stock answer applies: If you prioritize online competitive games get a 144hz TN, if you want deep blacks and well rounded gaming/movie watching in a darker room get VA, if you want well rounded slightly better motion clarity for games/movies and better overall uniformity of the screen in bright scenes get an IPS. Curved or non-curved makes no difference, that's down to preference. I hate curved personally because it makes straight lines going across the screen curve with the screen.
Evan Barnes
I'd like to know this too, although If I get a used GPU online it'll be NVIDIA and those cards weren't as popular for miners as AMD ones.
Thomas Davis
Been outta the loop for a while. I have a 4790k/1070 build that's doing okay but gets overwhelmed on occasion. Have put off a new build of late due to shit being retardedly priced.
Any news on the 2070ti and if it'll be a worthwhile buy?
I've sold several well taken care of GPUs on Ebay and never mined with them. I don't think I'd buy a card that was used for that, but in all my listings I explained what card was used for, that my case was well ventilated. There's a lotta sellers like me who sell when they upgrade, I'd buy from reputable ones...not miners.
Jonathan Nguyen
Are VA smearing and IPS backlight bleeding as big of problems as people make them out to be or is it blown out of proportion for shitposting?
John Lee
Any idea when the i5 9500/9500f is releasing?
Intel says it launched Q2, but I'm not sure if it's on the market yet.
Unironically Jow Forums. If you can sort through the fanboys, shitposters and trolls there's a lotta good info here.
Connor Foster
AIO is probably dead
Lincoln Rodriguez
It's still a steal if anything but the gpu is bad.
Jonathan Gomez
RTX 2060 is already barely relevant thanks to the Vega 56 price drops. It exists for retards who can't UV a 56. The release of the RX 5700 is going to kill it completely. RIP RTX 2060 2019-2019.
Easton Brooks
The catch is Tyrone prolly stole it.
Dominic Long
I blotted out the town but I assure you that type of Tyrone is shot on site there.
Cooper Diaz
jesus christ the fucking reflection
Evan Cox
So how much better is the 3700X going to be than the 2700X? Huge single-core improvements? Worth waiting for?
Connor Taylor
Why isnt koreansluts real? YOU OWE ME SLUTTY KOREANS
Elijah Cruz
1% single core improvements, larger multicore improvements, not worth waiting for, buy the 2700x when the new stuff comes out and hope the 2700x becomes cheaper
