/pcbg/: Post your component list; rate other anons'; ask questions in general.
>Ryzen 5 launch edition

State the PURPOSE of your PC, BUDGET. State COUNTRY if not USA.
List which GAMES/SOFTWARE you use often. List resolution & hz if gaming.
Seeking build improvements? Clarify if goal is to lower price or improve specs.

Thanks for no shill OP but 470 isn't that great if you live in the U.S. really. Price/performance for 480 is just too much better for the extra money.

Reposting from last thread.
As for the GPU I was thinking about GTX1060-6GB / RX480 8GB. Which of those 2 would you recommend?

>>59838837
>waiting
>IT'S LITERALLY RELEASED TODAY
Not im my country sadly. Have to wait at least a month, probably longer.
>Major problems are that I don't think those particular SSDs are reliable
I guess the pirce was a little too good for 525 GB to not hae some problems.
I could go with a smaller capacity one like
https://www.amazon.de/SK-Hynix-Canvas-SSD-Festplatte-5-Zoll-Laufwerk/dp/B01H5KW8VG/
https://www.amazon.de/PNY-CS1311-Interner-Flash-Speicher-240GB/dp/B019H3B3OW/
Or pick a more expensive high capacity one like
https://www.amazon.com/MyDigitalSSD-80mm-Express-PCIe-480GB/dp/B01MDRUXNZ/
Mostly plan on having just my OS and maybe a couple of games on it, so 250GB should be fine I guess.
>and that shit 2133mhz RAM.
What would you recommend? The 3000mhz ones would be quite a bit more expensive. And I lack the experience to say if it's worth it/necessary.
>Did you forget the cooler, too?
A bunch of people in the last thread kept saying that the i7 stock cooler is pretty decent so you could save some money by forgoing one. Is that not the case?
>>
>>59839112
Nothing, but i thought that since AMD suppose to compete on GPU market they should've offered something similar.
>>
>>59839131
The RAM is shit yeah but I don't really know the situation in Euro and cbf checking. No 2400 stuff?
i7 stock cooler is fine for nominal use but why get the K version if you don't want to overclock?
MX300 isn't that bad an SSD really if it's considerably cheaper than alternative.
Seagate HDDs have a considerably higher failure rate on average than WD and shouldn't be that much cheaper.
Most importantly, why are you spending so much on a CPU and motherboard to get a pretty shit graphics card like a 1060 or 480?

>R5 not selling anywhere

>>59839157
Not in all areas obviously. For a long time the 7850 was the best low profile card available with no real competitor from nVidea, obviously not the case now. It's always varying for niche stuff.
>>
>>59839039
It's difficult because it depends on sales.

Sometimes the cheapest RX470 is $120 when the cheapest RX480 is $170.
It's 90% the performance, so being 65% the price is good value.

But when there's an RX480 for $150 and the cheapest RX470 is $140, then okay obviously the RX480.

>>59839089
RX570 should be capable of passive cooling. It looks like it's on an updated process and more power efficient.
Have you considered a cooler with a single 120mm or 140mm that can run nearly completely silently, though?

>>59839085
>spending $100 on a 1050
>when an RX470 is literally TWICE as fast and not much more money.

Hell you can buy a used 7970 or 280X for under $85 that's still 50% better than that shit.

Apparently you can get Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB at 3000mhz at a similar price point. I don't know whit about brands, but I remember those being around for a while, so it should ge good, right?
>i7 stock cooler is fine for nominal use
Nevermind, apparently that one doesn't even include a stock cooler according to pcpartpicker. Would something simple like a 212 Evo be sufficient?
>but why get the K version if you don't want to overclock?
I've never done overclocking before, but I'll look into it this time around. Well, K does offer a higher tact frequency out of the box, does it not?
>Seagate HDDs have a considerably higher failure rate on average than WD and shouldn't be that much cheaper.
It's 45€ more expensive. Not sure if it's worth it. My last Seagate has held 6+ years.
>Most importantly, why are you spending so much on a CPU and motherboard to get a pretty shit graphics card like a 1060 or 480?
Becase everybody is telling me not to bother with i5s (I planned to take one at the beginning) and Ryzen 5 won't be out for at least a month (likely more) in my country. Also some of the games I play on playing are more CPU (modded CK2, which causes a lot of slowdown on anything that isn't a high-tier CPU).

Then again I'm unfamilar with current hardware, so I have a hard time matching them properly.

I think they literally made up most of these "results".
>>
>>59839372
Nothing wrong with buying the i7 now. I just think you'd be better off getting the locked version and a cheaper motherboard and spending the saved money on at least a 1070. CPU specific games or not it's still a stupid performance gap if you get a 1060 or 480.
>>
>>59839401
I'd agree with this.
Though the 1070 isn't very good performance/$ either.
But that in general, what you spend to significantly overclock a 7700k simply isn't worth it. A 7700 is good stock with a cheaper motherboard and the stock or a cheaper cooler.

What cheaper motherboard would you recommend?
>>
>>59839495
yes
>>
>>59839495
Yes. Intel processors suffixed with a "K" are unlocked, meaning the multiplier cannot be changed and they're priced higher. You can also save motherboard by getting a chipset that is "locked", but with essentially the same features as the more expensive gayming ones.

>>59839501
depends on your needs.
There is a fuckload of boards.
B250 will be cheaper, but Z270 will allow for faster RAM.

>>59839519
to be clear, you need BOTH the "k" on the CPU, and a Z270 board to overclock.

But... the cheap like $85-$120 Z270 boards are generally not good for overclocking, and really you need a $140+ one.
But they can be good at least support faster memory for not much more which can really give a bigger benefit than overclocking for cheaper.

It's fucking weird. Jews made things confusing to swindle people out of money.

>>59839521
You won't be able to build one smaller than a console without a bit of effort. The main issue is the cooler for the CPU and video card usually needs to be quite large. You can buy "low profile" cases, about as large as the original PS3 or current PS4 Pro, but you would need to buy a low profile CPU cooler and video card to match.
>>
>>59839333
its obviously a conversion adapter or a rewire, just dont know the adaptor name.

>B250 will be cheaper, but Z270 will allow for faster RAM.
And another choice I'm clueless about.
Well it's been pointed out what I was using slow 2133mhz Ram, so I picked a 3000 one.
I guess I could go a middleground with a GIGABYTE GA-B250M-DS3H and some 2400mhz RAM.

>>59839617
B250 and 2400 RAM is the best option in my opinion, but it won't run memory faster than that. Compatible, but it will just slow it down to 2400.
>>
>>59839637
Isn't it common practice though to buy a slightly better motherboard though?
Otherwise you might have to upgrade your motherboard together with the first part you upgrade.
>>
>>59839655
you will have to do that anyway since there are no better CPUs comming out for socket 1151
>>
>>59839655
Why would you have to do that? For what component?
>>
I see you are talking about motherboards here. Let me ask you a question. What budget MoBo do I need for G4560+RX470 but with option to put better components later? Currently looking at GIGABYTE B250.
>>
>>59839617
>>59839637
2400 is max on B250, but sometimes deals come up for a $85 Z270.
Those $85 Z270 aren't good for overclocking, but at that price could be worth it just so you could run 3200mhz RAM for that 5-10% performance improvement in gaymes.

But it depends on whether or not that cheap Z270 actually has the features you want.

Like you can currently get https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130993 to run up to 3800mhz RAM.
Spending an extra $30 for a motherboard and $20-$30 on RAM for a 5-10% performance improvement might be worth it.

But spending $80 more on a motherboard, $20-$30 more on ram, $90-$150 more on a cooler, and $40 more on an unlocked CPU for a 7-25% improvement makes less sense.
>>
>>59839684
None, upgrading on Intel platforms is useless since they change the socket at least every two years.
>>
>>59839521
You're probably looking for miniITX size, but save yourself the trouble and get microATX instead
>>
>>59839711
but i'm updating only once in 8 years
>>
>>59839684
Just some cheapass $60-$70 B250 and DDR4 2400 RAM.

You are never going to use all those PCI lanes that motherboards have. 99.99% people only use the single x16 slot for a GPU and that's it.

As far as upgradability.. well you don't have a huge upgrade path with any LGA1151. It's an EoL socket. There is not a better CPU coming out for them.
You can add in a locked 7700, which is over twice as good and very big upgrade. But you aren't going to be able to add a 6 core.

MSI and EVGA have the best warranties. Generally work the best also far as drivers and ease of OCing goes.

And before you run your dumb mouth about MSI warranty. MSI still takes their products back if you water cool as long as the original heatsink is on it.

Different BIOS, mostly.

Some of the same reasons one reviewer has the 1800X beating the 7700k in 12 games out of 31, while another has the 1800X losing on all of them by 20% on average.
BIOS and various settings account for a lot.
Gigabyte BIOS got extremely fast with the F5 update... but then F6 with the new microcode undid tons of their optimizations and they have to start over.

Most of them will level out. But it's a mess right now.

>>59840566
um no. You should not get the 1600 if you're not going to overclock. It's weak without an OC.
The lower end ones are best to get the most value out of with an OC. The higher end ones are better stock, and can OC slightly better but don't need to so much.

Looking like the R5 reviews are unanimously positive.

NDA lifted.

But the 1400 is pretty disappointing as I expected. That halved cache hurts. It's still better than the 7400 when overclocked, but not stock even on Linux (Ryzen is generally about 5-10% better on Linux since Windows is ass and compiled for Intel).
1500X looks great for the price for someone that doesn't want to OC.

A GPU bottleneck isn't necessarily bad.
It's generally ideal to make a lopsided build where there is a bottleneck on one end, and you can upgrade that end in a few years instead of needing to upgrade both.
Just as long as you'll get 60fps+, which you mostly will with the RX480 especially if you just turn one or two settings down.

The build looks really good, though. I'd try to fit in at least a 240GB SSD, but obviously that costs more.

1600X if you don't want to overclock.
1600 if you do want to overclock and want better value, but not the absolute best performance at a higher price.

1600X is maybe 5-7% better overclock on average for 20% more money and not including a cooler.

Unless you're going for top-notch OC (4GHz+) or SLI/Crossfire support, B350 is the best option to pair with an R5 senpai.

>>59841801
>No it won't, don't lie on the internet anon. The TDP is still around 140W, just with slightly increased clock speed.
Look at the XFX GTR. It's golden silicon 14nm FinFET Polaris.
It's about 90% the perf/watt of the 1060 compared to the 75% or so of others.

RX500 appears to be either a new or refined process that looks more similar to the XFR GTR's golden binned GPUs they use.
That's how they're higher clocked at the same TDP.
Which means you can underclock to still outperform the 1050Ti and be of similar power consumption.

This should be obvious to anyone that played with overclocks and underclocks. GPUs are clocked higher than what is the highest perf/watt to get more power from the same die. Gamers don't care terribly about wattage as long as it's not a 480watt housefire.

A bigger die at lower clocks is going to make up for any inefficiencies compared to a smaller die at higher clocks.

>2017

It's like you want to be stuck on a dead-end upgrade-wise (a socket a year yadda yadda) with your only option later down the road being a slightly less deprecated half-fried second hand 4c/8t CPU at a ridiculous price.

Intel has survived these last years just throwing MOAR NIGGAHURTZ at the problem (with increasing temperatures and lower OC headroom) ignoring the fact that that approach will soon hit a wall due to the laws of physics while AMD decided to go back to the drawing board and create a more modern, easily escalable solution
>>
>>59841217
The stock cooler should be good for like 1.3v-1.325v if I were to guess.
What overclock you get at that voltage is up to your luck. 3.7-3.85ghz probably.

As for the GPU, idk man I really like aftermarket GPU coolers. The stock ones are garbage for 99 out of 100 GPUs.

I don't know why people have this autism over how they'll replace a stock CPU cooler fine, but are scared to replace the GPU one.
It usually voids warranty.. but you just put the old one back on if you have to warranty it.

I'm dumb when it time for OC.
I heard with intel CPU if you OC it, your watt will stay at idle at said OC speed.
Unlike when it stock clock, the watt will go down when it idle and raise only when it needed at certain speed.

Does this also happen if I OC the Ryzen?

It's the same in America.
Apparently demand spiked due to the sales and people buying them since tests are showing that AMD GPUs are far better with Ryzen than Nvidia ones 90%+ of the time.
And people are seeing how much driver updates improved it over the 1060.
They're about $30 more here again as well than they were a week or two ago.

Tons of the gimped Ryzen benchmarks we've been seeing like with an Nvidia GPU in DX12 in Rise of the Tomb Raider were due to an issue with using an Nvidia GPU, but when using an AMD GPU it matches/beats Intel most of the time even if you put down settings enough to not be so GPU bottlenecked.

Hi, I was looking to build a new computer for programming (and some VM) at somewhere of a $500-$600 budget with Define Mini C case and no GPU. Someone told me to wait for ryzen 5 before making my decision.

I was considering somewhere around i5-7600k (which landed me slightly over budget with only 16Gb ram) which seems to be at the same price point as a 1600X. 1600 saves me a few dollars. Any advice?

I don't plan on top notch OC since i'm going with an air cooler anyways (although no idea which one, probably NH-U14S or something cheaper) and CFX is not an option.

>1600X if you don't want to overclock.
>1600 if you do want to overclock and want better value, but not the absolute best performance at a higher price.
I won't OC from the start but i do want to OC later on, that's 100% sure.
The 1600 costs 249€ and the 1600X 279€, that's a 30€ difference. I think i will buy a custom cooler anyways because i am going for a silent build and want the option to OC, which i doubt the AMD cooler is fit for... so... what do you think?

He's just shilling.

This one has a variety of tests with a reasonable methodology.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NCHhn0xEmo

BIOS updates should account for some significant improvements still. They were improving a lot, but then motherboard manufacturers had to start over on a lot with the last microcode update, so some performance was lost in the short term.

... and Mafia III updated last week, and Nvidia driver update, which made the 1800X go from beating the 7700k by 10% in Mafia III on the min frames to losing by 15%.
Shit is screwy as hell.

One thing is for certain: You really want to pair Ryzen with an AMD GPU. That gives better results over 90% of the time.

>>59842236
Tomahawk has some of the most problems of the B350 ones.
Prime B350, Gigabyte Gaming 3, MSI Mortar, ASRock Pro 4, and a number of others are all fine. 90% of them are all good, just check reviews, and it otherwise comes down to the features you want.

>perf/watt of Ryzen is better, bud.
Nope. Intel i3-7320 perform as well as the Ryzen R5 1400, but with much less power consumption and heat output.
A dual core CPU is beating a quad-core with SMT in multithreading. Half the threads, same performance. Mindboggling.
Face it, Ryzen is underperforming compared to AyyMD's marketing spin and Intel is still the best and only choice for serious consumers.

The i3-7320 beats the R5 1400X in multi-threaded applications besides gaming. There really is no reason to consider the Ryzen R5 over the vastly superior and powerful i3 and i5s.

Pentium is good for budget gaymers, but the Core i3s are much better for virtualization and servers. Ryzen doesn't support AVX2.0 either, so it's also shit for wrokstations and servers.

I've got an fx6300 and a r7 370 but I don't know what I want to upgrade first. I want to know what worthwhile options I've got for $100-$200, and $200-$300 for both the CPU or CPU/mobo and the GPU. I'm an engineering student so I would like for this machine to run CAD programs, such as AutoCAD or Solidworks.

ASUS Prime B350M and the MSI Mortar are the most commonly mentioned models around, also the ones more readily available in Euroland. Check what features you need and go for either one, I settled for the MSI due to the 4 PWM 4-pin fan connectors, but the ASUS one was a good option as well apparently due to the VRM quality.

In that case go CPU first. Matlab does support multithreading but not well, in your case single thread matters more, with that budget I would look at used i5 K series or possibly some used xeon on an H series even over ryzen

if by r7 you mean r5-1600(x) yes it will be great. the r7-1700 etc would be even better
used hardware is best to check local stores, but that usually isnt an option so craigslist and ebay are usually my go to. only decent upgrade would be something like a 8370, 8320, 8350, etc. those are fairly cheap these days, especially used, but you might not be able to overclock depending on your motherboard, what board is it?

During the R7 launch because they just didn't know better, so it was understandable. Now weeks after knowing some particular combinations (DX12 + Nvidia + Ryzen) give abnormally low results for AMD, the fact that some websites are still clinging to them means they're most likely intel shills.

Why a 60Hz monitor instead of a 144Hz monitor? If you intend to do any gaming with that rig, you will really appreciate the smoothness of 144Hz. If you've never seen a 144Hz in person, try to find a store that has one on display and allows you to play some current AAA title on it. I assure you, you will be enormously impressed.

Really seems like the 1400 should have just binned down cheaper as R3 CPUs without sMT but with the same clocks as the 1500X. That'd have made more sense.

So I have most of the main parts down, but I still need a monitor.
I have an old BenQ G2200W (22") monitor I'd like to use as a secondary screen, could anyone recommend a nice match?

Since the 1500X has shown to flop, should I just get a 1400 for a sub-$200 Ryzen 5 cpu?
>>
>>59843402
That MSI gaming pro board is trash.
3 phase VRMs.
Don't use it for a CPU that's over 65w TDP and don't overclock on it. (unclocking is okay)

>>59843609
Sure. You can usually get stuff cheaper by buying things as you see sales like the OP says.

>>59843684
1500X results seemed okay to me for its price. The 1400 is the one that seems like a flop, imo.

>>59843344
>>59843405
Uhh XFR GTR is hands down the best RX480. Nothing else comes close. It's more than 5% better than the next best ones where a bunch of other cards all lie.

>>59843450
The ASRock AB350M Pro 4 is white and black. But they're always out of stock since 2good.

That's basically the ATX version of that board but I was looking for mATX. Though I would get that one if I had to settle for ATX but it seems I'll be okay. Only $70 bucks too

Did I overspend somewhere?

>>59843528
Yes im sure my 8gb 1080 will be obsolete the same time as a 4gb 1050

M in AB350M = mATX.

I have a i5 6500, will getting a ryzen 1500x be a worthwhile upgrade?
>>
>>59843763
How would we know? We dont know whatbyour budget is or what youll use this for
>>
>>59843806
Oh okay there's another one. It wasn't on newegg but I see it on pcpartpicker. Though it doesn't look like it's in stock anywhere if it's even out.
>>
>>59843850
>downgrading
kek no
>>
>>59843882
From what i've been hearing about the ryzen 1500x, it sounds like an upgrade to me.
>>
>>59843763
I would downsize the power supply to maybe 600W and put the savings towards a 250GB SSD and/or a better case
>>
>>59838982
>Save money with mATX case/mobo, and if patient by purchasing your parts individually in flash sales

this is actually really good advice and should be paired with a link to a price checking website like https://pricespy.co.uk/ that notifies you when prices go down or sales happen. I saved 50€ on my monitor and 70€ on my gpu by monitoring their price over two weeks

It's not. It is SO not

>>59843899

1500x is a freaking 4 cores. >>59843874
>>
>>59843850
Not really. If you want to upgrade to ryzen, get at least the 1600.

Just ordered the R7 1700, anyone can recommend a good motherboard?
>>
>>59843938
>intel shill using rise of the tomb raider benchmarks
Please spare me your idiocy.
>>
>>59843850
It wouldn't be a big upgrade for the cost of getting a new motherboard as well.
You'd be better off getting a locked 6700, or 7700 if you can update your BIOS to support delidlake.

Or just wait for Zen2 which should perform significantly better, as I'd imagine that 6500 would hold you over unless you're doing lots of multitasking, compiling, rendering, etc.

>>59843958
I really agree with this.
I don't care about getting 5 more fps. What I want is CPU overhead to spare for other applications instead of it hitching when something else besides the game tries to use CPU.
In the cases where the 1600X is getting worse FPS than the 7600k, it's purely because it's only being utilized like 70%.

>>59843985
>can recommend a good motherboard
Insufficient query.

>>59843938

>>59843958
>>59843980
i guess ill get a 1600x.Thanks.

While people like you only posting single images instead of linking the actual damn site?

>>59844043
Ryzen will get optimized and an 8 fps difference isn't that much desu
>>
>>59844114
I'd rather let the results speak for themselves over having people drudge through paragraphs of apologetic bullshit excuses paid for by AMD.

Looks great. Higher minimum FPS than the 4.7Ghz overclocked 7600k!

Were you trying to prove another point, while being too ignorant to read the results yourself?
It's so cute when you shills post images that make the exact opposite point that you were ignorantly trying to make.

Huh...really makes you think....

That doesn't even make sense, if you want to humiliate Ryzen just show everything from said site.
You just showing how lazy you are.

Trolling use to be a art.

>>59844229
In the computer that costs $200+ more.
>>
>>59844229
$100 more expensive and not belonging in a comparison of $190-$250 CPUs?

I imagine it'd win there with utilization a bit lower than the 1500X, though. Pretty easy to infer. The 1800X's CPU utilization would obviously shame it if you want to forget about price.

>>59844286
You really don't need over 650watt max even with a 1080Ti and 1800X. They're both quite power efficient parts.

And why the fuck would you get that board instead of the Taichi, Aorus, etc?
And why not get a 480GB+ SSD with that budget?
>>
>>59844320
>Aorus
Are they that much better than MSI?
I personally have a lot of bad experiences with ASRock
>>
>>59844286
Yeah, a decent processor+motherboard
Ditch the deadweight housefires then grab the 7700K and Z270 motherboard
>>
>>59844366

Its only 70$ more tho. Not a huge price jump at all especially compared to the performance boost

Pls take your delidlake garbage to the trash. And leave a fire extinguisher nearby just in case.

The MSI X370 is garbage from all that I've seen.

The B350 Mortar seems alright, though. And the Tomahawk seems good for those it works for.
