AlCarosse reacted to boggy77 in Need help in upgrading PC
would you consider a ryzen 5 3600? it's 6 cores/12 threads. single core performance is similar to a 9600k, while multi core performance is similar to a 8700k. it's also much cheaper

Well you seem kind of set on an Intel build, but since you don't care about gaming 1st or 2nd gen ryzen would definitely be a great value/budget option. Something like a r5 2600 would work great, and you can get a decent b450 mobo for around 80 bucks.

G4560. Put an SSD or some cheap RAM if you want to make up the difference.

Intel Pentium G4560 + Stock cooler
Gigabyte GA-B250M-DS3H
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB DDR4 2400Mhz CL14
Corsair Force LS 240GB
Corsair 450W Active PFC Modular 80+ Bronze CX450M PSU
Corsair Carbide 200R Black
This is the PC I am going to order. Any corrections ?
(The fact that everything is Corsair is coincidence)

Get the Corsair one instead, 540s is mediocre. There's not much difference

SSD isn't amazing, but the rest is good. Does CX450M have Green text or grey text on label?

i3 6100 + cheap h110 mobo OR g4560 + cheap b250 mobo
whichever is cheapest in your region, they're about the same

Pentium much better value and very similar performance to the i3.

so go for the pentium and spend the money you saved on more ram, it will help if she has lots of tabs open.

The i3 has slightly better integrated graphics, but I don't think this will matter.

AlCarosse reacted to Bananasplit_00 in How big is the difference
depends on how shit the worst one is and how overclocked and stabile the best one is but yah 10fps was a bit extreme tbh
-
AlCarosse reacted to AresKrieger in How big is the difference
It's not going to be 10fps in any way shape or form the max difference will be around 7% but it's not going to be based of price rather it will be luck of the draw.
-
AlCarosse reacted to Mi26 in How big is the difference
Most probably a difference of a few fps due to overclocking and the effectiveness of the fan to be quiet and keeping the chip cooled
-
AlCarosse reacted to AresKrieger in How big is the difference
Personally go with the cheapest option that doesn't have a blower style cooler (minus the evega non SC since it doesn't cool properly from reviews I've seen)
-
AlCarosse reacted to AresKrieger in How big is the difference
I'd say it's negligable tbh no way in hell will you see a 10 fps difference as they all clock to at least 2000 and the max is 2150 and it's all lottery

Lol. You're right. I have an ASUS H81M-K. No idea why I wrote H110.
