Hi everyone, So I am looking for a new laptop and the HP victus 16-e0307nd caught my I because I can get it for around 700 euro's. It has a ryzen 5 a 3050 with 4GB VRAM, so it handles pretty much anything I need at 1080p at the lowest settings. However I am wondering about the usb c port on it. I would like to know if you can charge the laptop via this port? It does have a lightning bolt logo next to it and on the HP website it says it can carry a displayport signal. And I would also like to know if the battery will last you longer than a few hours if you only watch youtube on it? Does anyone have any experience with the Victus laptops from HP? And if so would this be a good price for the value you get? Thank you in advance

Thanks for the heads-up on the case, I will try and look for something more airflowy. What about the build itself?

Budget (including currency): I would like to stay under 1800 euro's Country: Germany/ euro's Hi everyone, So currently I have a PC with a i5- 6500 and a 1060 6gb with a 4k monitor. Mostly a work pc and when I get the chance, I play games like Elden Ring, God of War, GTA V, The Witcher 3 and Apex legends. I have always been running stuff at 1080p 60-ish fps. What I would like to get out of a new PC is running anything at 1440p 100-120 fps (not something like cyberpunk) for the gaming part. I also work with gigabytes of text/excel files running lots of SQL queries, for which I like this new PC to be able to run these queries with little to no effort. I want to build the PC listed below because of the following: PCPartPicker Part List: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/Fp9JbK CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor (€235.45 @ Computeruniverse) CPU Cooler: be quiet!

But please correct me if I'm wrong. The GPU for what I can find on amazon.de the 6700XT seems the best bang for your buck. It also draws way less Power, which I find really impressive compared to something to like a 3070Ti (which is my other option I have been researching), for a bit less performance, but overall also a bit cheaper. The mobo because it has a front usb-c header and seemed like the best price for a b550 (I don't think I will be overclocking). Storage I would like to still have a SATA SSD, because if necessary I would like to use it in other PC's that don't have m.2. But I still want a m.2 SSD and from what I found these 2 will do just fine, but if there is something faster for a comparable price, please let me know. I already own 2x8 vengeance 3200mhz DDR 4 sticks, so I will keep using these, unless I could get more performance out of something like 3600mhz sticks. The case because it has a front usb-c header and looks clean. The PSU is fully modular which I want, gold+ and best price I could find for the wattage you get. As addition I would like the pc to be as quiet as possible for the budget. I also would like to know, for the types of games mentioned if an NVDA or AMD card is preferable, as for monitor I really don't know what to get other than that I want to play at 1440p at 100-120 fps. And with the AMD zen 4 coming this year I would like to know if it's maybe worth waiting and if the mobo mentioned will be able to use the new CPU's? Thank you in advance!

Something like apex legends on low/mid settings 1080 240 fps? and gtav / tomb raider at mid 4k 60 fps?

I think waiting is the best option, didn't know we were that close of big navi releasing. Which means prices of most cards and cpu's will drop even furter. I mean nowadays we get a new something every half year. So I think waiting would only help in getting a good deal on something like a 5700xt, or even better if the navi cards are priced similarly. Thanks for the heads up.

Okok, and what about if i wanted to try for 1080p 240 hz, would a rx5700 xt be good enough to get those 240 fps?

Hello everyone, I am looking to build a new PC with the AMD 500 series mobo's coming out, which have the usb -c header I need for my case, and don't break the bank like the x series mobo's. I want to pair it with a Ryzen 3600, or wait until the 4000 series come out this year. My question like the title, what would be the best and cheapest GPU to pair with for 1080p 144hz monitors? I am using amazon.de, so europe pricing. Any help is appreciated.

Unfortunately no.

Hello everyone So I have a build below, I already have the necessary storage and I'm using my old 1060 6gb. The mobo listed (which I can get for around 150 euros), is a great value and come with great I/O (ps2, usb c on the back, at least 1 gen 2 usb port) and options, and because I want to use my case (which also comes at a good value) with the USB C port, I need an internal usb header, which this mobo has. However I have several problems: I want to use the ryzen 3600 with this mobo, but I can't be certain of how to update the bios if needed. Second I can't find a single x570 mobo with similar I/O and options as this particular mobo for this price. If I'm not mistaken none of the b450 mobo's come with a type c header. For some reason I find myself looking at Intel mobo's, because here they are cheaper than AMD mobo's and with lots ore I/O options. Why AMD? Because 3600 . I mean is there even that big of a difference between 470 and 570? Or just wait and see what b550 has to offer?(if it even comes out) In short I would like to be able to use all the options of the ryzen 3600 and the NZXT case. I wish for a mobo's that gives me all these possibilities at less than 180 euros. Thanks for your help.

Currently named monitor is on sale for 300 euro's. I wanna use the monitor for multitasking, a bit of gaming, but priority goes to: I want better quality for viewing stuff. Is the monitor for 300 ok? Does someone have experience with this particulor monitor, or AOC? Is it any good? Thanks in advance.

So I got an advertised internet speed of 50 down and 10 up. I got a router from my ISP, which for the pc on the ground floor, that is connected via a tp link extender via the router, works fine and gets a stable 20 mbps down almost all of the time. However, I have 2 pc's on the 1 st floor that are connect via the tp link extender (the av 500), but cuts out a lot of the time, also the speeds are always below 10 mpbs. I don't understand if it's the router that is having an issue keeping up or the extender. Also I can't get the extenders configured, so devices connected to the network can switch seamlessly between the extenders. I gave all network devices the same name and password, when I turn the wifi on and off on my phone and stand closer next to an extender than the other, it connects to the one closest. Does anyone have an idea as to these 2 questions? Thanks in advance

Dunno why, but that was not what I selected xD. Changed it now. Just to make sure, I will try buying 2 of the single rank and put the 2 of them in dual channel in the mobo

So I found this stick of ram for just 50 euros: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B07HP8PVVH/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?smid=A3JWKAKR8XB7XF&th=1 but can i buy 2 and run them as dual channel or does it have to say dual rank or something?? Thanks!

So I'm building a pc for 1080p gaming and not above 120 herz. It shall be used for games like cyberpunk 2077, FPS games, anthem and some light photoshopping/drawing. I'm still waiting for the ryzen 5 to drop back to 150-ish euros. I chose for the 570 (it says 204 euros in the list, but on amazon I found new ones for 170 euros) because the 580 is at least 50 euros more expensive, because I couldn't find any 580 for under 220 euros. Also the performance increase is around 10% from what I found and I wont pay a third extra for that. I will not use any expansion slots, so I opted for a mATX board, because it's cheaper. Also RAM, I'm well aware that higher MHz means more fps, but I refuse to pay more than 110 euros for 16GB of 3000 MHz ram. I believe 8 GB is enough for now and I found 2666 MHz for 50 euro's. I would like to know what you guys think. Did I mess some combination of parts up? Or will this run the aforementioned games smoothly? Also if anyone found something cheaper/better I would love to know. Thans in advance.
