Bworde15 got a reaction from Zakara in Ryzen 1700x Build
You can probably get away with a 650w but i would recommend a 750w. 850w is a little overkill.
Your CPU cooler is fine unless you are going to be doing overclocking, then you might want a better one.

Check out the build i put together
https://pcpartpicker.com/user/bworde/saved/TG7pbv
I put a Ryzen 7 1800x because with the 1700 you had 300 left to i just put in a 1800x but you could save some money and get a 1700.
Also i couldn't find the best Ryzen board so you could switch it out with another one.

If you can get $40 more dollars you can get a 1070ti which is a lot better than a 1070 and very close to a 1080.
If not you can get a 1070 or a used 980ti.

Yes definitely, you would be able to sell if for $200-250.

Bworde15 got a reaction from Thermosman in Worth it???
Yes, we would need to know the motherboard but he would be able to make more money than $160.

Bworde15 got a reaction from TidaLWaveZ in Is this a bad graphics card?
No, you might be able to find an old part on craigslist, or you could combine Christmas and your Birthday and get a 1050ti.

Bworde15 got a reaction from Kawaii Besu in Lesser CPU with more RAM now or get better CPU and upgrade RAM later? (R5 1600/16GB vs R7 1700/8GB)
Get the 1700 because later you can add another stick of RAM but it would be a lot harder/more expensive to upgrade your CPU.

Sorry...

And yes, I know that it's over your budget when the pricing for the cpu, ram, and power supply work, but you have to make compromises somewhere.

build the system, leave everything at stock for your windows installation, once you have all the drivers installed and updated, restart the computer and find your way into the BIOS. There you will navigate to the manufacture's overclock settings. find a multiplyer you like (say, 38 for 3.8GHz), and apply additional VCore voltage (good place to start is 1.35v) and run stability tests until you are satisfied with the OC. If the OC Fails, make sure you clear the RTC using the pins on the motherboard to reset the board's memory before trying again. keep in mind, the 1600 wont always clock better than the 1600x so don't be surprised if you can't achieve a 4.0GHz clock.
Also, keep in mind that you will want to monitor CPU temperatures. Ryzen Master and HWMonitor are good programs to do that. You want to keep the CPU below 80C for occasional OC, and below 70C for everyday OC. You can reduce temps by reducing VCore voltage in BIOS, but that might also mean that your clock speed will have to come down as well as high clock speeds require higher voltage to be stable.
when changing voltage, take the smallest steps you can, and do not exceed 1.4 volts.
There are SEVERAL youtube videos on the subject.

Bworde15 got a reaction from remo in RX 580 4gb vs RX580 8gb
In the long run the more VRAM will help a lot and get you a lot further before you having to upgrade.
Also it is only $50 more so i think you should definitely get it unless you are going to upgrade to a 1080/ti card soon.
