  1. you may aswell if you can afford it, try for 16 gb of ram aswell, itll help, what psu have you got? id hate for it to be a crappy one and risk your hardware
  2. gaming whilst streaming, unless he wants to fork out an extra 100 for the cpu over the 1600 and a decent aftermarket cooler for the cpu and a more expensive mobo as a b350 board can handle the 1600 i feel as if with ops limited budget, ryzen is the best choice
  3. theres a 6 core 6 thread i5 yeah but it complicates things more, id personally build ryzen but its down to you the cooler you picked is great but a hyper 212x will allow you to overclock the same, ryzen is quite good with overclocking plus ryzen really benefits from faster ram, ive thrown 2666 on there, and it works out cheaper than your budget https://pcpartpicker.com/list/QFNM9W
  4. idk but in my eyes its not worth spending around 100 dollars more when in productivity a 1700 will still do aswell as the 8700k but will be on a new platform rather than a rapidly dieing one
  5. whats your budget, and youll need a video card for that, ryzen has no igpu
  6. i wouldnt go coffee lake tbh, its just a cashgrab from intel again, especially when amd has a good 6 core part for so much less
  7. an 1800x will overclock to 4 ghz max a 4 core 4 thread ryzen 3 1200 will overclock to 4 ghz max a 1600 will clock the same as a 1700, if youre serious about streaming and other editing related things, the 1700 is your best bet, if youre just looking at getting into it, get the 1600 and then when zen 2 comes out you can upgrade to whatever 8 core model is on there as it will work with the mobo you buy for the 1600 tl;dr all ryzen chips overclock to 3.9-4 don't spend the extra on the 1700 if youre not really serious as that is better spent on a better graphics card
  8. doesnt quite work that way, you can disable cores all you want, you wont get higher than 4 ghz for the most part
  9. thats why i said IF you can get it, otherwise none of these, get the asrock taichi
  10. whatever is normal for internet speeds sorry haha, also parents, im only back home for a month or two but its killing me
  11. whenever im doing something on my computer in the upstairs on my house through a wireless repeater and i know when downloading something i hit a maximum speed of 2 mbp/s (crap i know, deal with it) out of the maximum 15 mbp/s how can i prove this, ive tried explaining bandwidth but they arent having it is there any way to prove im not using that much of the download speed
  12. obviously a full loop is possible i believe the kraken g12 thing from nzxt may be better though if you dont have a loop set up, you'll need to buy a seperate aio for the g12
  13. hows the experience with the palit card? i see them always cheaper but have never bought them
  14. itll run, invite me to the bonfire? all jokes aside... it can work, it might blow up
  15. check temps before it shuts down, sounds like ram though
  16. ???????? im running the 3000 kit at 3200
  17. already built the prime was a steal at the time
