How do we fix this build? Damn ethereum miners. PCPartPicke

Would you be willing to overclock? If so, I'd consider a Ryzen 5 1400 and a cheap aftermarket cooler, or a 1500X with the stock Spire cooler. Then I would OC either one to 3.8+ GHz.

Absolutely. Hyper 212 EVO? Would the 1400 be able to pull its weight? I realize intel tax might not be worth it, especially with cards being so expensive. It's for PUBG 1080p, and video editing. Any mobo will do, but do you have a recommendation? Thank you in advance.

>Hyper 212 EVO?
Sure. That performs better than the Wraith Spire cooler, so that should be more than enough for a decent overclock:

At what specifically? Gaming?

>I realize intel tax might not be worth it, especially with cards being so expensive.
In my opinion, it's not worth it. Ryzen 3 is coming out any time now, which as you may have heard, are unlocked, quad core chips. Yet they are supposedly between $100-150; at least the last I heard, anyway.

>It's for PUBG 1080p, and video editing.
I just looked at pcpartpicker, and apparently you can pick up a Ryzen 5 1600 for $199, which is 6 cores and 12 threads. I would definitely pick that up if you plan on video editing, and or doing any live streams. Once again, OC it to 3.8+ GHz.

>Any mobo will do, but do you have a recommendation?
Well obviously a B350 or X370 motherboard, as those are the chip sets which support overclocking a CPU. I would personally stick with B350 to be honest, as it's cheaper. X370 seems to be more aimed at SLI and Crossfire, so get that if you plan on running two GPUs.
Would you be willing to get a bigger case? The only mini ITX motherboard I found was over $115. If so, you could get a micro ATX or ATX B350 for $80-90.

Hyper 212's aren't any good for overclocking. I never understood why they're so popular other than the price and >muh coolermaster.

Get a noctua d14-d15. Under $90 and will out perform $100+ AIO water coolers. I have a d15 and my shit stays ICE cold. Like literally too cold, I'm shivering right now.

Fortunately, Ryzen is both low TDP, and also soldered. The guy in that video appears to have just about maxed out his chips with a 212 (which ran them in the 60s, under load), so I personally wouldn't spend any extra extra.

what's with normies and non K i5s

Wow that guy is a cuck. Purposely hitting the 212 off the table and acting like it was an accident in a poor attempt at humor.

Anyway he's testing with a 212 Turbo. Their newest version. That second fan actually makes a huge difference. I still stand behind what I said. But the turbo version isn't as shitty.

>That second fan actually makes a huge difference.
I agree. However, he said in the video that he ran the tests without the second fan, in order to mimic the traditional 212.
