/pcbg/ - PC Building General

first for way to fuck up posting the thread the first time, newfag

Currently deciding between an RX 480 8GB XFX GTR and a RX 580 8GB Sapphire Nitro+

Which should I get?

Not that most of the people who use these threads would have the knowledge to figure out which is the "bad" advice.

>>60038176
cheaper of the two

>>60038218
They are the same price.

Don't alter the OP if you don't know what you're talking about faggot.

You've changed so many things and posted wrong shit.

yeah. like this fake thread.

Repeating old question.
What I can do with this old rig of mine?.
I replaced the Drives and gave it a new PSU (Be Quiet Straight Power 10 Gold - 700w)

hi i'm some fucking random reddit retard that doesn't know shit but wants to continue to make crap threads for internet points

also be sure to petition moot (that's his name, right?) to add upvotes to this site!!

I have some questions regarding this build. First, is the 1070 good for 1440p gaming? I considering getting an RX 580 8GB, but I would like to play games at a higher resolution than 1080p. Also, assuming I get the 1070, would that power supply be sufficient? I don't trust the Estimated Wattage. Finally, is that CPU cooler good enough? I heard water cooling is a lot better for higher end GPUs. I'd say my budget limit is $1250

>>60038090
Not sure why this tripfag has taken to making /pcbg/ intel-shill crap but here's a proper thread without the terrible OP advice:

Not much
What you are trying to do game?
Replace CPU mobo and GPU
1080p 60+ Hz rig

AMD B350
Ryzen 1600
16gb 2600+ DDR4
RX 580


People need to stop recommending quad core chips(4C4T) for gaming. Dual core chips are not an option anymore for games.
Modern engines will make use of more threads and with DX12/Vulcan being pushed out more and more having more CPU threads is going to be a huge benefit.

Pro tip
If you have a quad core currently do not upgrade to another quad core get a 6 or 8 core chip
Ryzen 1600 6C1 @ 4.0ghz is going to be the best bang for your buck chip in future games

>>60038479
580 is a upper mid 1440p card broseph. 1070 is a high-end 1440p / low-end 4k card.

Drop the X and get a 1600
Same chip unless you dont plan on OCing at all
IIRC the tomahawk B350 has a bad VRM design
Go with ASSrock or someone else
I would never buy a 3tb HDD stick with 1 or 2 TB more reliable. I would get a larger SSD and smaller HDD

Stock AMD cpu cooler is actually amazing no real reason to buy a 212+

1070 is fine but you could run two 480s for the same price

>>60038551
Naw the 1600 chips generally will hit 4.0ghz
Its the 1800s that are a bit harder to hit it 3.95ghz is basically the same thing
>>60038507
Could just use the old rig as a HTPC or something similar
Sell it on craigslist to some LoL kid or something

>>60038395
>>60038407
I have an ASUS P5Q SE2, P45, Socket-775 mob in an older pc, is it still usable you think?

>>60038090
DAILY REMINDER:

There is absolutely no reason to buy an Intel CPU. Higher maxs are less desirable than smoother gameplay at 10 less FPS.

>>60038609
Already told you. It's probably still good, but forget about good graphics on it. Your PCIe slot is done for good and the x4 slot will bottleneck your system hard. Get a new mobo.

>>60038642
>stilll no proof of i7 stuttering except that one video where "i7 just doesn't feel right!"

>>60038793
Can you explain to me the difference between an OC'd 7600k vs an OC'd 7700k that would change these results?

Go to a PC store or do the research. Lessons you should have learned by now: Do research before you do something stupid, don't apply force to solve a problem, better go to a PC shop if you have zero knowledge and don't bother to google 5 minute.s

>>60038793
>I don't see any i7 tests at this picture.
Because the 1600 competes against the i5, not the i7, doofus.

>>60038835
christ you should have just had some gayming/PC store and paid them to do it if you're so impatient you can't either do the research yourself or brute force a GPU out of the slot like a monkey

If only AMD had priced the 1500x just a little bit cheaper it would actually become a good alternative to the 1600.

Thinking of going for watercooling. Where do i even look for this shit? Amazon? Is ekwb the standard?

>>60039152
What is relative performance?

>>60039464
... is this an actual question?

>>60038793
I come to /pcbg/ every day. They literally never include any 7700k benchmarks in any of their intelsucks.png

>>60039509
Ive never heard of this metric. Relative to what?

>>60039437
>coming to /pcbg/ for advice
Nigga this thread is for amd vs intel shitposting only. Go back to plebbit

>>60039546
Its a metric invented by amd shills. Fps is the only relevant gaming metric

>>60039546
Relative to the processor that is labeled 100% - the 1500x.

If the 1500x gets 50fps@1080p, the 7700k was (on average) 10.1% faster, so you can expect it to get 55fps@1080p.

If the 1500x gets 200fps@1080p, the 7700k was (on average) 10.1% faster, so you can expect it to get 220fps@1080p.

>>60039618
So the 7700k is better

It was a faggot yesterday who changed it, probably the same shill or another fucktard who just copied it

>>60038251
wrong.
you mad bro?

>>60039804
Are you serious? Lol

>>60039804
In that case it would be some $70 intel cpu

>>60039796
According to those benchmarks, the 7700k ($350) is 10% better at 1080p gaming, 4% better at 1440p gaming, and 0% better at 4K gaming, on average compared to the R5 1500x ($190).

Purchase accordingly.

I have to travel a lot to China, mainly because I'm an AOSP developer. I want to have a portable workstation based on the new Ryzen 1700. Considering they don't have ITX Mobos yet, I want thinking of getting a mATX one with a Streacom FC9 as a passive cooler.

Do you think the FC9 will be able to hold a stable temperature under load?

I realized that for the most of the things I do I require a decent CPU, not GPU. So I'm looking for a new build with a good CPU and a somewhat passable GPU.

I have decided to get a Ryzen 1800X. Can't decide on the GPU. so I need your advice. What GPU would you suggest for someone who mainly does
-Software Compilation
-24/7 uptime
-4K youtube streaming

And how many watts of PSU should I be looking at? And what CPU cooler?

what's the selling point for things like the intel nvme drives and the other m.2 nvme drives? like, what is that kind of speed needed for? If it doesnt help with system boot time or necessarily load times, then for what? as a scratch drive? whats the selling point?
also, why 2 pcbg? what the hell is going on?
