/pcbg/ PC Building General - nvidiots btfo edition

I bought a single stick of RAM 16 GB that runs @ 2400 Mhz.

Should I return it and get something else? I have an ASUS Prime B350-Plus and a Ryzen 5 1600. What RAM should I get? Is the CMK16GX4M2B3000C15 good?

Threadly reminder that you have to be mentally retarded to buy a dual core desktop CPU in 2017 and if your budget is really that low then just buy a used Xeon workstation and put a SSD in.

Planning to overclock Ryzen 7. Still haven't decided on a case, so cooler size isn't limited. What should I get if I want cool temps and quiet as possible while pushing 3.9-4.0GHz?

>>61632073
>what should I get if I want cool temps and quiet as possible while pushing 3.9-4.0GHz?
R5 1600, it should hit at least 3.9 and has a fairly low TDP

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/lucoh/saved/Jw4K8d

Like to make it cheaper, while still running most steam games

>>61632105
Isn't that TDP just based on stock specs?

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/HY7cnn

I think I'm done with this list. But I have a question about RAM. Can I just get one stick of 8gb and add another stick later on? Someone suggested getting a dual channel kit but I don't want to take up spots for potential future upgrades.

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/LHjPBP

Anything to change?

>>61632127
>Like to make it cheaper
First off, pirate your OS. Jeez.
And you can get a nice chink mech keyboard for way cheaper. Don't buy Razer products.

>>61632127

Maybe take a look at different case and keyboards. I was looking at the redragon RGB and it seems pretty good. but I've never had the chance to test it so idk

>>61632137
>Can I just get one stick of 8gb and add another stick later on?
You could, sure. But I highly recommend getting two sticks because it's double the bandwidth.

same question as in old thread, going to build my first PC, having trouble deciding between an i7 or Ryzen. It'd be mostly used for gaming, but i want to future-proof it and not have to worry for some time about upgrading. Which should I get?

https://www.amazon.com/Redragon-K552-RGB-Backlit-Mechanical-Keyboard/dp/B019O9BLVY

>>61632127

Added bonus, you can now overclock

>>61632190
Ryzen

>>61632186
would it be super noticeable? I want to try to upgrade it pretty soon if I chose just one stick

>>61632190
also, i've been seeing that nvidia is offering free copies of Destiny 2 with their 1080s, but i'm not really sure which ones would quality. If I got a 1080 FTW hybrid from amazon, would it qualify? (in US btw)

>>61632149
Looks good

>>61632149
Wtf are those companies, and why are they so expensive? I can get the exact same ram but $50 cheaper from newegg

>>61632190
Future-proofing is a genuine meme and both processors will be obsolete around the same time.

>>61632218
It doesn't hurt to ask, but keep in mind that they're really shitty when it comes to free stuff. I bought my RX 480 like a couple of days before AMD started giving away free copies of Doom to customers and they told me to fuck right off.

>>61632215
lol if you intend to upgrade, just buy two sticks now so you don't have to worry about it. If you're really that insistent on getting one stick, you can always upgrade it, since RAM is easy to replace.
And yes, always go with 2 sticks instead of 1. It's noticeable.

>>61632190
i7 7700k is the best you can get right now for gaming besides the i7 7740x scam

I have this and its stable at 3200. Dual channel > single channel, so I would return and buy this instead, unless you really want 32GB of slower ram.

>>61632232
He's in Australia, so they're local companies that wouldn't charge you an arm and a leg for shipping to a penal colony.

The second one you linked is a tiny bit slower than the 3200 kit, but much better than what you have now. I'm phoneposting so looking through that PDF is aids.
You can sometimes save a few bucks buying different colors from corsair, the last character in the model# is what signifies that, all that changes is the color of the heatspreader. (...c15W , c15R, etc)

You effectively double the bandwidth. There are a ton of articles that go in depth and give benchmarks if you are curious.

>>61632565
It's great for budget builds but some people say the VRMs are bad. I personally recommend it though. I'd prefer an MSI Mortar or Tomahawk though

>>61632531
>>61632544
yes

>>61632565
That one is alright too,

You do only get 2 ram slots so keep that on mind of you plan on adding more later. The mortar has 4 in the same matx form factor, for example.

Can i run Windows 7 ryzen?
I've never used windows 8 or 10 and a lot of people say that windows 10 is really bad.

>>61632638
It won't install the USB drivers and there are no updates when you have an AMD Ryzen or Intel Kaby Lake processor.

>>61632601
Will CPUs run @2.5ghz or @5.0ghz

If I own windows 7 I can upgrade to Windows 10 for free right?

If you're a college student, you can get Windows 10 for free.

>>61632664
Fuck.
From 1-10 how close is the windows 10 to 7? If it's less than 3 any good os suggestions?(except gentoo)

>>61632700
not anymore. They ended that last year.
You can install Windows 10 for free though and activate it later when you have the money for the key. It'll still work unactivated, you just won't be able to customize the theme.

I tried building my first pc for 15 hours and was posting a bunch of question on the last 2-3 build threads and my pc didnt turn on, probably my fault but thanks /g/ for helping at least, I'm depressed so I'll be back in a week when I feel like completing my pc.

I am extremely poor, are there any starter PC's on ebay that are cheap, but upgradeable?

I looked at Dell Optiplex and some HP Compaq pro's, but they don't usually state the motherboard.

>>61632723
there might still be a way if you go the disability route using certain options.
yes, microsoft is that lazy/jewy that they make people pay but have a backdoor open to get as much people to upgrade.

just no anon. depending what you need it for buy used parts from a friend you can trust (not some ebay/craigslist shit unless you really know what to look for) or start piecemeal by mix&match like new cpu+board, older gpu etc.

>>61632550
So, what do you recommend for cooling it?

>>61632843
Nah just was trying to be extra careful cause I just wanted the thing to work, hopefully in one go which of course didnt happen. I put my PC in a separate room in my house and I refuse to look at it until I get my head straight.

I did the same when building first pc. Specially when installing cpu i was shaking so much that i broke a one of the cpu pins.

Ok, so i've come up with what looks like a good Ryzen build, time to let you guys tear me a new one for no reason

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/FD2HM8

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/y7Vrjc

Going to be used for gayming (mainly emulators, some modern games), as well as VM's and possibly playing with the stream processors. I haven't put together a computer build since 2010 so I'd like some critique. Is there any way I can get this cheaper without sacrificing too much performance? I plan on overclocking as much as I can.

>>61632933
But what about keeping it really quiet? Could I overbuild the cooling/go liquid and have it be basically silent even under max load?

>>61632190
Ryzen you can drop in a stronger CPU up through 2020 supposedly on AM4

>>61632723
How would I go about buying a key once I had the money

>>61632984
Looks good

>>61633014
Either through the windows store directly (icon is next to the search bar which is next to the start icon) or buy a key off kinguin and activate it in the settings.

>>61632946
Go Scavenge hunting.
Search for used parts/pcs on Facebook and Craigslist. A lot of people give old pcs for free.
Go to pc junkyards.

>>61632700
>>61632723 is Wrong, You can still upgrade for free from 7 or 8.1 to 10 if you claim you use the accessibility features. There is no actual check for this, but as long as you claim it you can still upgrade for free. Just google "windows 10 upgrade accessibility"

>>61633001
Watercooling will give you more time till you have to ramp up the fans. Pumps are pretty quiet nowadays. If you're running it at 100% for a min or two, before more 'idol' go air cooling as it's cheaper.
But if you're going to peg it all day get watercooling.

>>61633014
literally ebay. or any other key site. never buy that shit directly, it's always WAY overpriced.

but before you do any of that just fucking google and try this: http://www.zdnet.com/article/heres-how-you-can-still-get-a-free-windows-10-upgrade/

>>61632984
I'd bump up to 3200 ram if you're already spending that much. An air cooler at that price would work just as well and be quieter. That hdd is probably refurbished if you're okay with that.
Otherwise it's solid.

>>61632723
How would I go about buying a key once I had the money? How much functionality will I have ?
>>61633096
Can you put it on a USB drive and install it on a new build?

>>61633249
>How would I go about buying a key once I had the money?
see:
>>61633046

The only thing that you can't change in the unactivated version are personalization options like the color theme. Otherwise, it works just like normal Windows 10, just with a watermark in the lower right-hand corner asking your to activate it

>>61633080
>craigslist

Do this. I can usually get some decent gear for next to nothing from local people looking to get rid of shit.

tfw got 3200 ram but its clocked at like 1050mhz which with dual channel is like 2100 right?

I tried just manually bumpig it to 3200 in the bios and it wouldnt boot

now what?

>>61632984
I wouldn't use AS5 anymore as it is readily outperformed. If you already have some then don't bother replacing it but since you're buying it new you might as well get something better. Get some Gelid GC Extreme, TG Kryonaut, or Artic MX-4

>>61633253
if you're components stay cool enough, sure.
main reason you run case fans is to circulate out the hot air, if there's no need for it...

>>61633249
What are you thinking of installing from the USB? Windows 7? the upgrade from 7 to 10? a clean version of 10?

>>61633253
Things will get toasty, but as long as your components have good coolers then you should be fine.
Are we also talking about 100% passive cooling, or just not having any case fans but still having them on your CPU cooler and video card?

>>61633503
Pull the CMOS battery and wait 10 mins for it to reset
Update your BIOS first before trying to bump your ram that high. Newest bios should have a-xmp installed, use that.

>>61633785
its a new am4 mobo; I already reset with jumper
xmp is the thing that automatically sets the frequency right? because it set it to 2200 instead of 3200

i got $1200 give me a build i need a mouse and keyboard as well

>>61633700
Alternatively if you're too retarded or your only computer/internet is down, you can just walk into a Microsoft Store and simply ask if they can get the OS on your flash drive.

swap out the ram for 3000mhz, you can hit ~3.8ghz with the stock cooler so you don't need the cooler master, and go for a better psu (higher end corsair, evga g2/g3, anything seasonic)

Silence and cpu power i guess. All i need is to drive a 4k60fps monitor for video and digital art. Really i want to emphasise silence. Im guessing the ryzen stock cooler is actually quite quiet? Or do i have to go for something like the Noctua - NH-U9B SE2?

>>61635018
performance has nothing to do with your freedoms, overall it looks like performance will be about equal with the top end Vega card anyways, and it should only get better with driver updates.

No memes. If all you really care about is driving a monitor then wasting 100 dollars to do that is stupid. Either buy a 2nd hand GPU or considering waiting for Ryzen with APU.

A hybrid FE card at 1700mhz is on the heels of the 1080ti 10-15% in most cases 20% in the worst optimized games, Assuming that the AMD driver team learned anything from the FE card and what games people are currently playing. It's entirely possible that they can make up some ground for launch. But we'll have to wait and see until tomorrow/next week as reviews come out.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Xg2hcc current build because my motherboard fucked up on me and my graphics card (graphics card runs like the lights and fan, but unable to be detected even with drivers) (Also my HDD just locked up on me cannot access Windows only access to bios)
>Budget - $500 to $1000
>Games on Ultra like GTA V as well as Video editing/Photoshop
>Monitor resolution is 2560x1080 and 75hz
>Lower price, but an upgrade
I'm mainly looking for a new tower, motherboard, and graphics card. Technical help on the HDD would be greatly appreciated, not sure how it locked up on me (HDD crapped out when motherboard stopped functioning correctly so I get an error and cannot access Windows only bios).
Tower I need suggestions especially ones with great airflow to beat this heat.
Motherboard I'm not sure what brand to go for. I had an Asus Maximus VII Hero but it fucked up on me even with surge protector. The customer service was terrible.
Graphics card same as motherboard, brand wise. I can go for a 1080ti if needed. I just need to know what price to shoot for. 1080/1080ti is fine.

For Honor is almost as bad as Project cars for AMD, though I think a Fury X was only as fast as a 1060 in that title.

Its gonna be at least a month or 2 until I can get a decent GPU and I need a cheap one for the time being for a new Ryzen build. Should I go with a 710?

>>61635312
I don't know how you can say the FE is on the heels when they are 20 FPS behind a normal 1080ti that people buy. No one is going to buy a 1080ti FE unless they are putting a water block on it and then it rapes Vega. While the FE hybrid is already under water or at least partially.

nigger, what are you even doing. go with ryzen, ditch the cooler since the stock cooler works fine, get better RAM jesus fucking christ, and that power supply is overkill

>>61635384
Bulldozer had its place for PCI-e lane count in 990FX and beating an i5/tying an i7 in multi-threaded workloads

i know you used to be able to, but can you still activate a copy of windows 10 with a windows 7 key?

>>61635396
I am sure you can come up with some convoluted reasoning why Vega will be good as well.

Vega will be alright if you're buying it with a free-sync display. Free-sync 27" 4k 60hz IPS displays are $300-400 G-sync started at $800 last I checked

>>61635425
This build is a colossal waste of money for that parts you're buying. Easily one of the worst in this thread. Also, change that RAM asap.

Why are you wasting money on that platform? Just buy Ryzen Revision 2 when it comes out for an actual upgrade

>>61635674
I'll wait for a new CPU/GPU/RAM etc to come out until then I just want a few parts to chuck onto the spare parts I have now.

>>61635700
Sell the old CPU? It's not worth buying into an old platform unless you're getting used parts incredibly cheap.

>>61635700
If you're doing video editing you should be buying an R7 1700 if you can afford it which it looks like you can. GPU prices are fucked so if your GPU is actually broken try to find a cheap 4GB RX 560, if not a 2GB one is fine for now until prices are back to normal.

>>61635718
Okay I might do that. But what spare parts I have now can I keep? The power supply and storage right?
>>61635728
I can wait to buy a CPU/GPU. Any suggestions on which Ryzen to buy and GPU brands? I'm not in a hurry to buy/upgrade anything. Just looking for a suggestion for now after reading all of your comments.

get a GIgabyte Gaming K3 if you want a bit nicer motherboard

Brands don't matter much, Sapphire usually makes nice AMD cards though, their RX 560 is voltage locked, have a 2GB one in my rig right now, dunno if power color is voltage locked

Whatever you do get a card with a 6 pin and OC it, should hit 1400mhz easy, my card is stuck at around 1444mhz due to the voltage lock

Because you literally can't buy GPUs at reasonable prices, 1060s even are still $300, a 560 is about as fast as a 7950, but can have 4gbs vs 3gbs. still alright for 1080p gaming, especially with an OC.

Spend around $50 on the case. I recommend the Fractal Design Focus G or the Corsair Carbide Series.

i love how this thread is just littered with idiots who advocate high latency high frequency ram instead of lower latency lower frequency ram which has literally the same or better response times.

this is very good. only thing id change is hhd to ssd, but thats just me

>>61636225
t. non-ryzen owner

>>61636209
It has 2 ram slots dipshit. He can add another stick later for the full effect and not waste money.

>>61636225
Good RAM is expensive, especially now, either high frequency high latency, or the reverse, but either way doesn't matter for Ryzen nor any other platform, so long as you get a good balance between high frequency and low latency you're fine.

>>61636225
fast ram makes a HUGE difference on AMD Ryzen processors because of how the architecture works.

Ryzen is essentially 2 4 core CPU complexes (CCXs) on a single die. The 2 CCX's have to communicate with each other via AMD's new Infinity Fabric technology. The Infinity Fabric runs at the bus speed of the ram, so fast ram makes a MASSIVE difference because it directly affects how the CPU communicates with itself.
For Ryzen CPU's with less than 8 cores, there's still 8 cores. But underperforming cores are deactivated during the binning process and sold at a lower price. What's interesting is the cores are always deactivated symetrically. So the 4 core CPUs have 2 cors on one side, and 2 on the other. and 3 per CCX with the 6 cores.

Fast ram makes zero difference on Intel chips because the architecture and chipsets can't take advantage of it.

>>61636269
any yet the balance isn't even there 3200mhz at CAS 17 responds like a full millisecond slower than 1600mhz at cas 9.

and yet all you get is people saying, ditch this speed for this speed without even doing the maths themselves. it may not matter in shitty ryzen systems but it does matter.

>>61636293
fast is relative, if it's fast but takes double the amount of cycles to respond it's effective clock speed is wasted isn't it.

>>61636313
The clock speed of the ram directly affects how fast the CPU communicates, regardless of latency. Multiple tests have confirmed this.
Do a little research before spewing bullshit Intel Shill. How much are you getting from their infamous "rebate" program?

>>61632710
Or just crack a install of win7 with Daz, and upgrade for free using the accessibility version

>>61636328
it directly effects how fast the ram performs a cycle, not how fast the cpu communicates with the ram. the cpu sends a request, the CAS is how many cycles until the ram sends the task back completed. if the speed is higher but the latency is higher as well the ram would perform similar to a slightly slower ram with lower latency.

while i appreciate your complete idiocy, shilling has absolutely nothing to do with my point. why don't you learn what the fuck you're talking about, or cite some actual tests that you won't find any of.

So I have a Ryzen 1600 and Corsair 16GB 3200MHz RAM and have strange issues with overclock.

https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance-3200MHz-Desktop-Memory/dp/B0143UM4TC

My MSI X370 SLI plus mobo lists the Corsair RAM as part of its QVL. During overclocking I can't get the RAM past 2667. If I get any other BIOS than the one it shipped with but it has an issue where I can't OC the CPU anymore and it gets stuck at 1.55 GHz but memory actually boots into windows at 3200MHz.

So I get a beta BIOS that doesn't fuck with my CPU overclock and I get 3200MHz ram booting into windows. I do a 15 minutes of prime 95 testing and everything looks good. I play some games for a few weeks and everything is great a few crashes to desktop here and there but that I thought was because of my mods and whatnot. So I play a game and this time it freezes completely and I have to restart. Any time I have my RAM above 2800 MHz it crashes in a game within a few minutes or if I run Prime95, within 10 seconds most of the cores come back with errors. I run memtest86 and get errors at 3200MHz, but not at 2800MHz.

The thing is why was I able to run my RAM for several weeks just fine without much issue at all, but now it suddenly doesn't work anymore even with setting the DRAM voltage higher and loosening timings. Is it possible for RAM to degrade like it is, or was I just lucky that it was stable on my mobo for a few weeks? Just for reference I'm running my CPU at 1.45v 4.1GHz on my custom loop where it doesn't go above 70C at all.

>>61636388
>completely misunderstanding the point
The ram sets the bus speed of the Infinity Fabric. What matters isn't how fast the ram can communicate with the CPU per cycle. WHat matters is how fast one CCX can communicate with the other via the bus speed Infinity Fabric.

>>61636388
t. dumbfuck

>>61632013
Ok so I bought some fans, I'm paranoid the connections wont work on my mobo. 1 "molex" connector goes into my PSU right? You don't need to have one on your motherboard because I see a few 4 pin things but they are male, not female like I think molex should be.

>>61636388
Haven't read a word. But before you spew out a 720p benchmark. Isolating every load a processor requires to do a task for the purpose of making a Mhz dependent bench, then parading it as if you won is atrocious.

Is this an okay and compatible build for light gaming, video making and editing.I already have an Asus gtx970 and a Coolermaster Hyper TX3 Evo to put into this secondary setup.

The build needs to be relatively compact and have a simple and easy upgrade path. An Asus gtx1070 will be handed down into this build in a few years time.

They are going to lose money on every card sold with these prices. Or, even if not losing, but margins are too low to offset r&d.

Thanks, I'll look into it. Does the brand or M.2 format matter much? My other setup that I built a few years ago has a Sandisk Extreme II which is not M.2; though I've read recommendations on the Samsung Evos

>>61636842
Thanks. I actually own two other Silverstone cases, so I really like them. There isn't a window on this one, is there? I could probably then find cheaper non rgb ram. I'll have to think about which I'd prefer.
Also: is the Asus Prime A320M-K AM4 Micro ATX Motherboard the micro atx version of the mobo I selected?

Any pinoyfags to help me out? I haven't really assembled my own PC but whats a good setup for 15k to 20k flip-pesos? Been only buying pre-own sets, but not really assembled one on my own. Any help would be great.

no window on the silverstone, you could look into an inwin 301 if you'd like an affordable and compact tempered glass case. Don't touch the a320 chipset unless you don't care to overclock. Stick with b350 (or x370 if you want to sli).

How much GPU can r5 1600 @3.7 handle at 1080p, before I hit a CPU bottleneck in games like War thunder, Red Orchestra 2, Insurgency, rainblows six siege?

10 month old GTX 1080 for $485 or new GTX 1070 for $370?

What is your monitor and what do you use your computer for?

>>61636388
https://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/AMD/Ryzen_Memory_Analysis/9.html

Both have an impact but frequency is less expensive to increase. Ideally you would have lower latency too but it has less of an impact.

GTX 1070 is recommended, but why not go all the way

What kind of build will $1100 get me? I already have a mid case, psu, and hdd. I'm wanting to game in 1440p, 144hz, and do some light video editing. I already have a capable monitor btw.

I'll figure out on my own later, I'm just being lazy right now.

Yea a 1070 would be more than enough, but if you wanted to spend a bit more to get more junk in the trunk the 1080 is good at that price.

Anyone else fall for the RGB meme? I have a keyboard, mouse and GPU all rocking the rainbow. Even have a lighting kit for my pc in the mail.

Is there a point to use a graphics card for a non-gaming laptop?

Maybe if you have the need to edit videos while traveling.

I have the option to buy a 1500x for 160 USD and would pair it with a R9 290x.
Is this a good deal, and will I utilize my cpu to the fullest with a 1070 upgrade?

>>61638463
Do it. Sounds like a good plan so long as you have a B350 or X370 AM4 motherboard, and fast ram

>>61638501
I am essentially buy a i7 for half off right? is the $30 extra for a 1600 better?

im really hoping vega is a beats at mining so that it can fill that niche and flood the market with used 1070 and 1080. I play 1080 60fps now but want to move up to maybe 1080 120 or even 1440 60/120. So I want a 1080 but these prices just would make me feel like an idiot when they drop and I payed such a high price. So in the meanwhile I build the rest of my rig R7 1700 and good everything else, but my RX480 is still keeping me from upgrading monitor further.

would using incompatible ram be the source of freezing, or is the freezing cause by something else?

>>61638530
The 1600 would be more futureproof and allow better multitasking. With intel moving 6c to mainstream games will use the 6c to their full extent in the near future

>>61638110
As far as I remember about EVGA PSUs, the Gold ones are fine, while the others are not.

my friend sent me this, any thoughts before i buy?

My advice: get a new friend.

lmao A+ shitter, go back and read the op, you could pay half that and end up being faster than that shit build. Also buying windows 8.1 must be trolling.

I'm getting it prebuilt on another site for peace of mind/included warranty, but as a result I have to pick certain stuff like Corsair RAM because they have deals with suppliers

Do I need to upgrade to splash out for liquid cooling or anything?

It will be used for a wide range of game genres

>>61632073
I have a dark rock 3 on my 1700X and I can do 3.8 Ghz at stock volts without going above 80C on small FFTs prime 95. If you want to do 4Ghz and stay cool you might want something a little more substantial, but this build is dead silent.

>>61639574

Wasting some money on a few things, but considering the build I assume that's not a concern for you. Would perform very well.

new thread needed

Philippines. Thats why I'm asking if theres any flipanons here.

I'm upgrading part-by-part from a i3 2100/gtx 520 PC to https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/TfFWqk

I only have the PSU, Graphics card and mouse and am planning to get the motherboard, CPU and RAM next. Is the partlist ok, or do you have any suggestions for other motherboards/ CPUs/ etc.
And did I meme myself by any chance with the rx 480?

>>61639867
Also forgot to say that Im going to use this build mostly for gaming and maybe some browsing.

Just wanna thank you guys for helping me with this build. Built it back in February, and love it.

>>61639670
I've watched a couple of reviews already, but what does /g/ think about the EVGA 280mm AIO? It seems to have (very) slightly worse performance/noise than the Kraken X62 but is much cheaper.

>>61639867

Don't buy x370 unless you need the extra features (such as SATA ports) x370 boards tend to offer over b350 boards.

The K95 is not worth the money over a K70 (which itself is fairly overpriced - even if it is a good keyboard) unless you really want those extra macro keys.

>>61639895

In terms of the HDD, I couldn't get my hands on a 3TB one so I settled for a 2TB model.

Should I just give up trying to build my PC? I tried building it for 15 hours and it wouldnt turn on so I took a break. Then I put the tower in a room where I didnt have to look at it. Then I tried to fix any wiring to the best of my ability, but it doesnt work.

Ok guys, what do you think. I am aiming at a budget build that will last a couple of years (hence 4 cores). Mainly office stuff + watching movies, editing pictures, maybe some light movie clip editing. No gaming or anything like that.

CPU - Ryzen 1200
MOBO - Asus Prime B350M-A
RAM - Patriot 2x4GB 2400
PSU - Corsair CX450M
GPU - MSI GeForce 1030 Silent LP
Storage - 1TB HDD Seagate Barracuda 7200 +128 GB Adata SSD
Case - be quiet! Silent Base 600

Spend that extra 70 dollars and get a 1600.

will a Asus - PRIME Z270-A ATX LGA1151 play nice with a R5 1600 and a 180ti?

Why.

Anon you have to fix all of the sub timings for Ryzen RAM overclocking, if you aren't willing to invest time until the motherboard makers fix it just run your RAM at stock.

>>61640819
1600 is 2x the price of 1200 here (EU fag with VAT), so I do not think this is viable for glorified Facebook machine. The video editing will be only trimming clips for YT, max at FHD max.

I need to find $ for a nice IPS monitor all within 1000 USD.
