You can always get an external if you really need to use dvds with your computer. Dont they make wifi adapters that will also do bluetooth?
Henry Moore
Vega 56 was decent value card if you could tweak it, and it gave you a higher end entry to the freesync world.
But now with nvidia supporting freesync I'd say you are better off going RTX for gaming, mainly to avoid driver issues. But for your case I think it looks fine, 274€ for a Vega 56 is very good value, I don't know how good Vega does on Linux though.
Connor Jackson
>€400 AMD CPU
what are you doing, son?
Wyatt Thomas
Reminder: add it to the OP copy pasta
Noah Smith
Thanks for the advice. I believe AMD cards have better Linux driver support. It will probably be only €349 + shipping + tip for me.
Charles Sanchez
Just do beware that Sapphire cards run hot and loud.
Grayson Hernandez
tell me why are the only gaymen notebooks from ASUS Tuf? Why is there no proper notebook that doesn't imply you're mentally 14 years old yet has AMD and a proper graphics card for occasional gaming
I'd replace the PSU for a Corsair RM which should be around the same price but other than it looks good.
Colton Collins
Thank you based user, trying to finally decide between the 2060 and Vega 56 but I think the 2060 will be better in the long run
Zachary Reyes
I'm glad I bought a ryzen and joined the holy crusade to save pc gaming and destroy the jewtel monopoly. Lisa su is a hero. She should be on the $20 bill.
David Phillips
Is there any chance for a price drop on the 2080ti by christmas? Also is the 2080 enough for 4K 60 on older games from 2015 maybe?
Jayden Gutierrez
What's the best overall deal I can get on a RX 580?
Michael Phillips
Which mobo would be the bare minimum required to run a third gen ryzen cpu whithout any problems with memory, oc-ing and other shit like that?
Jaxson Perez
>implying Nvidia has better drivers the past 2 years l m a o just check their own forums, lying shill
They do. You're getting trolled, or he's paid.
Julian King
Likely. It's been out for over a year by then and prices have already dropped. Yes, it should handle 4k60 on all older and most newer games as well.
what is the best pc chase ? I want to last me forever and be capable of water cooling an eatx .With as much space for radiators as possible
Benjamin Diaz
Pretty happy with my X470 Gaming Pro Carbon desu, only cost me 125 bongs.
Colton Perez
So fucking true.
Carson Turner
I have the Crosshair VI Hero. Does this list mean that I'll get full functionality out of a Ryzen 3xxx chip (boost, idle states, etc)? Or will it "just werk"™ in the sense that the PC will just boot? Looking to get a 3900X day one and it would be great if I could just pop it in and away I go. Maybe I'll get lucky and not even have to re-install windows
Gabriel Jenkins
For how much should I sell an x58 p6t deluxe mobo with 3x4 gb (12 gb of ram) and an i 7 950?
Brandon Collins
>desu desu nigger
Parker Cook
WTF CHIYA?!!!
Andrew Cook
Update your bios and you're good to go, all features will work. No need to reinstall windows for a CPU change.
Angel Martinez
desu desu desu desu >desu desu desu desu
Christian Martin
rude desu
Ryan Ward
You should put that trash in your local waste container, I doubt it has any real value unless you want $10 lmao
Connor Barnes
I don't play shitty, unoptomized games.
Speaking out of experience. I had a shitton of issues on my old GTX560, some driver issues with my R9 380 (most in the first year) and close to 0 incidents with my GTX1080 (got it a year after launch).
I think the regular radeon cards are great, but the high end stuff, not a chance.
Brody Butler
1000 USD, tell them it can run Fornite at maximum quality.
Ayden Richardson
Well that's fucking sweet. Won't even have to build the system up again. Speculation time, but I really wonder how much heat the 3900X will pump out when you start pushing 1.35v to the core. I'm under a BQ! Dark Rock Pro 4. Would love to see 4.5GHz all core. desu? >desu desu
Dominic Wright
Subnautica is a lot of fun, albeit horrible game engine. Same with Satisfactory. Built on an engine that loves Intel CPUs.
Cameron Jones
>desu desu filth nigger
Kevin Cooper
and you should fuck off cunts, the ram at the very least would be 30-40 bucks, and the mobo should be at least 100 bucks on ebay the i7 950 is just a plus cuss I don t have anything to do with it
Sebastian Perry
>x58 mobo >100 bucks lmao
Colton Anderson
the cheapest mobo capable of oc-ing an 2200g and maybe an 1600 to their maximum and doesn t have problems getting the memory to oc to 3000 MHz at the very least?
Can someone tell me why this system doesn't overheat when I use it for example to run Cyberpunk 2077 in 2020? I'm currently saving for a PC and this system looks nice but I don't understand why it doesn't need any supply and exhaust ventilation?
That case comes with 2 case fans installed. You don't need more than that.
Ethan Anderson
So the difference between the 1tb ssd's and 960gb ssd drives is nothing.
Cameron Barnes
5600 or 5500 to pair with a 3400G when
Zachary Gomez
would any 450m be better I see lots of em for real cheap.
Lucas Taylor
Yeah b450 boards are typically better than b350. I think msi gaming pro carbon is one of the best b450 boards you can buy.
Carson Rodriguez
How much of a difference does XFR2 make for running a midrange CPU on stock?
Wondering if I should upgrade my x370 board
Jackson Brooks
I will be upgrading my pc once the new ryzen gpus and nvidia supers come out. I already have an ssd and case but ill need a new mb, ram, graphics card and cpu possibly a psu depending on what parts I get. I have about £1500 to spend what CPU and graphics card should I be looking at getting. I will be playing 1440p/144hz vg and want to be able to watch 4k movies
Chase Murphy
I would go with ryzen 3700x, x470 mobo and rtx 2080
David Reed
>want the msi X470 carbon pro AC >can only find the non-wifi version
What the fuck happened? Literally removed from amazon, newegg and even microcenter.
someone probably figured out that having wifi on an ATX board makes as little sense as seeing lack of wifi on an ATX board as a dealbreaker instead of using one of the 4 empty PCI slots for it.
Daniel Smith
NH-U14S or NH-D15? Reviews seem to prefer the U14S since it's a bit cheaper, quite a bit smaller/lighter and performs almost the same while keeping a lower acoustic level. On the other hand the D15 is generally considered the king of air cooling.
Thomas Ross
I'm planning on buying a 3950x. Which motherboard should I get with it? I have no particular need. I receive welfare money that I have to spend every month or they will cut my welfare. Point is price doesn't matter, but I don't wanna spend money unless I get at least something out of it. Like I know some motherboards have 5GB lan or 2.5GB lan obviously this could be future proofing it. I don't use wifi, RJ45s are faster.
I've never even seen it for sale. You'll have to get the Gaming M7 if you want a top tier X470 with WiFi.
Elijah Green
the read out led for the aorus extreme is in a bad position for my case in particular. I also don't like the new oversized buttons. Apart from that, that thing is sexy as fuck.
man i had trouble with 2 gigabyte MB wondering if i should give it another try this does look sexy
Ian Wright
aorus xtreme and master, no doublers, true 16 and 14 phases respectively. The others, the higher the amperage for the power stages, the better. Also, the more phases, the better. Those are good rule of thumbs to start with without nitpicking too much.
and why do I need 14 phases when the ones with 4 phases seem fine for a 3950x non OC?
Elijah Harris
You'll still want an aftermarket cooler to take full advantage of XFR and PBO. They perform best when the chip's below 75c.
Jose Walker
take your time. don't force anything, if it isn't slotting in effortlessly you're doing it wrong, start over. Also, it's satifying as fuck to build it yourself.
Its pretty hard to fuck up. If it doesnt boot its more likely that the parts fucked than you did
Landon Morgan
you don't. As i said. That one in particular just looks like it will be the best x570 out there. it it'll probably also be very costly, so if you have budget concerns look elsewhere down that list.
Adam Sanders
I'm paranoid about fucking up the pins once I get one of the new ryzen chips
I don't have budget concerns but I'm not just gonna spend to spend. I need at least one reason why if you say 14 phases are better. What practically would that change with a 3950x non OC beast pc?
Zachary Anderson
Isn't QVO perfectly fine for general use, installed games etc? The EVO is 40% more expensive for the same storage (1TB) and I doubt the performance differs very much, the biggest difference is a larger TDW and an extra two years of warranty for the EVO.
Levi Butler
that's the easiest part. if you're really paranoid, drop them in still outside the case, lock, and then bolt the mobo. Just don't mount the heatsink outside the case. that could be bad... I think. probably. or not really, depends.
Hudson Anderson
i already told ya. new infineon 1000amps toy. and 16 phases.
that's what's really sexy about it. if you still don't get it. I don't care. You're starting to bore me.
Bentley Young
So is there any realistic ETA on when Noctua are going to pull the finger out and make a black/silver D-15 that doesn't cost twice the price of a normal brown one?
Xavier Mitchell
xfr
Jason Wood
lol no
Brandon Jenkins
That looks great and the lack of fan on the chipset is really nice. However I've been burnt so many times on gigabyte's BIOS. Lack of options or lackluster options. Have they gotten any better? The last gigabyte board I bought was a gigabyte 990fx-ud7 for my FX-9590.
Damn. Is it possible to use the poop-and-vomit coloured fans in out of the way fan slots (eg: the bottom) on a PWM system, or is there no use for them if you replace them for aesthetics?
