Wanna make a high end gaming pc that can play modern triple A games at 1080p 60 frames per second. Im currently using a shitty prebuilt, are there any parts I can reuse in my gaming build?

Processor is good, you need to replace everything else.
In other words, your GPU, memory, motherboard and storage are all hot garbage.
Memory -> DDR4
Storage -> SSD preferably m.2
GPU just (((nvidia))) thing you can afford, and a motherboard that fits those
Why did you buy a computer that leaned so heavily on CPU?
>>
>>61547468
Just get a better GPU. And an SSD. That's all you need, really.

use ddr3 then luddite

haswell doesn't support ddr4 moron.
>>
>>61547715
hey dont talk shit to my boy falcon, i'll fuck you up

Also why didnt u recommend changing the cpu for a ryzen and keep the mobo? :^)
>>
>>61547731
o rite teehee
>>61547748
go for this then, scrap the whole thing
>>
>>61547468
That an XPS 8700? It ain't shitty. The PSU should handle a GTX 1070.
There's your gaymen rig.
>>
>>61547645

There's nothing wrong with his RAM, idiot.
>>
>>61547468
Proccesor is good. Ram is good. Honestly this looks great just put a new PSU and GPU in and maybe get a SSD.
>>
>>61547468
Add a SSD and a big boy GPU and slap her on the ass
>>
Get an SSD and a GTX 1080.
Then put in some 3000Mhz RAM and you're good.
>>
>>61547784
DDR3@798MHz
>>
>>61547820
>tfw using DDR2 at 677MHZ
>>
>>61547804
SSD wouldn't hurt.

He doesn't need a 1080 nor does he need 3000hz RAM. His shitty dell mobo wouldn't support it anyway.

I could play most AAA titles at 1080p, 60 frames, 60hz on medium to high settings with my old ass R9 290.

1080p @ 60/60 isn't exactly demanding. Even with high settings. Resolution and refresh rate are more demanding than high settings.

OP most of these people are retarded. New GPU (market is fucked right now though, buy used imo), and a new power supply. And an SSD. And you're set.
>>
>>61547820

What the fuck about it? It's dual channel, that's 1600mhz ram. Theres literally nothing wrong with his ram end of story. Ram frequency has been proven to only give minimal performance gains while gaming anyway. You're literally an underaged summerfag.
>>
>>61547836
Me too, man.
>>
>>61547895
>tfw using an old opteron socket f
>tfw using ATI radeon 5770
>tfw motherboard doesn't even fit in case right
Computing is pain
>>
So the general consensus is to scrap the mobo, psu, and gpu, while keeping ram and processor.
>>
>>61547876
Why don't you just manage your memory with pen and paper
>muh dual channel
That's twice nothing
>Ram frequency has been proven to only give minimal performance gains while gaming anyway.
conveniently ignoring ddr3, does that not matter as well?
>>
>>61547930
I'm using a 2006 Mac Pro with crossfired 5770s, so I feel you. Runs Windows better than OS X at this point, but it's basically a space-heater. Needless to say I don't game on it.
>>
>>61547936
If it is a prebuilt, see what kind of PSU it can handle. If it can handle normal PSUs, then get a new PSU and a new GPU. You can keep everything else.

If you have the budget, add an SSD.
>>
>>61547468
You just need a GPU my guy.
Shoot for a 1070 or a used 980ti.
>>
>>61547949

Why are you ignoring the fact that he's playing 1080p at 60 fucking frames on a 60hz monitor.... he doesn't need DDR4. So in this instance, no he doesnt.

You're also conviently ignoring the fact that he'd have to replace virtually every component CPU and motherboard included just to run DDR4 which again is meaningless for his desires.

I'm done. Everyone can laugh about how retarded you look.
>>
>>61547963
The only upside is that ECC ram is very cheap so I got 32 GBs for 40$

RAM upgrade from that trash he has is on par with getting a new GPU.
>inb4 it doesn't benefit all games.
It shows an effect on enough games to be a justified upgrade and his RAM is ancient tier.
Also I have an OC'd 1070 and Witcher 3 doesn't give you a steady 60fps at 1080p with everything cranked to max. It almost does, but not in all areas.
Upcoming games will be even more demanding and possibly terribly optimized.
Of course if you want to go by the mid-high range and you don't want all of the bells and whistles enabled it's different, but I assume he wants to max things out and get a steady 60fps.
>>
>>61548005
Absolutely. I pull all my rigs from the trash at whatever job I'm at, so I'm upgrading soon, but was planning on getting 32GB.
>>
>>61547936
A new mobo would be pointless man.

>>61547973
1070 would be a good option if they weren't impossible to find and the prices on them are rediculous because of miners.

Get a used 970 or maybe a 980 if you can find one for a decent prices

Your 1440, DDR4 benchmark is meaningless here, neckbeard.
>>
>>61548022
Miners use Nvidia cards too?
>>
>>61547970
If it's an XPS he doesn't even need to scrap the GPU. The 460W they come with is pretty stout. They come stock with midrange cards and can handle more.
>>
For those asking its an XPS 8700 that's about 3 or 4 years old.

What's your local craigslist?

>>61548020
Bretty nice.
>>
>>61548133
NY Long Island, if you want to make a deal or something I can ship it.
>>
>>61548158
No I'm going to look for a video card for you.

I'm just across the sound from you.
>>
>>61548187
Oh shit thanks, im from Farmingdale
>>
>>61547645
Dumbass doesn't realize DDR3 and DDR4 with the same bandwith/frequency are the same

GTX 1070, asking $400. See if he'll come down a bit. You can get them new for $435 so I wouldn't buy used at that asking price, but if he'll knock another $20 off you're getting it with no mining surcharge.
>>
>>61548408

Just spend $500 on a 1080 that will actually be future proof
>>
>>61548408
Thanks, I'll try and see if I can get him to lower the price
>>
>>61548427
1080 would need another $60 for a new PSU.
>>
>>61547468
Yes.
