I currently run a ryzen 7 1700 as my cpu in a msi x470 gaming plus board that supports ryzen 5000. Surprisingly it still supports all ryzen cpus even with the latest bios. As of right now the 5700g is $300 while the 5800x is $350 according to newegg(not gonna get into the current bs of their issues. They still price better) Getting the 5700g will give me a savings of roughly 15%. But the downside to the 5700g is losing a lot of cache and it runs games slower give or take 13-17% if fully utilized with all the benchmarks I could find. The upside is I could use the igpu for screen recording instead of using my dgpu resources. I mostly play my games at 60 or 120fps. Just depends if I can run the game at that framerate. Should I save the $50 plus a cooler or should I spend the extra $50 and buy a cooler?

Enmotus. https://www.enmotus.com/amd works like PrimoCache and Intel rapid storage from what I managed to learn about them.

There’s still some stutters compared to offloading it the laptop. Using the laptop pretty much is stutter free for now, I haven’t stressed tested it yet with a lot of falling sand to see it can go lag free. I saw some prebuilts on eBay. I might go for that since it looks like a great deal for what I’m looking for. My pc got corrupted after putting my under volt back. Damn you Enmotus! That caching software still got problems. I need to talk to them about that. I’m planning on reviewing the software since no one is surprisingly Time to reboot.... again....

I’m thinking about of building a system for my gaming server for ark, rust, 7d2d, etc. I’m only going to be running 1 server at a time and when my friends or I are playing. So it will not run 24/7. I’m thinking about just building a raven ridge system using the ryzen 5 2400g to have decent overhead. The reason I’m thinking about doing this is because I been noticing the dedicated server while gaming on it will slow my fps pretty bad randomly and maxes two of my cores. Not sure if my ssd needs to be faster to fix it. I use a ryzen 1700(3.2ghz undervolt) with 32(2x16)gb 3000mhz and a r9 390. No one else feels the slow down except me. One of my friends is using a ryzen 1700 too, so don’t blame it on my cpu. I know that these games have horrific optimizations. Right now I’m using my i7 740qm 1.7ghz 6gb ddr3 120gb ssd Lenovo laptop. It’s running Windows 10 because I don’t feel like tweaking it with Linux. Too much trouble. I haven’t tested ark or rust but I feel that it’s gonna tank the server just having me on. 7d2d seems to run fine for now. My 2 friends and I are on day 5 after going our separate ways. So idk how well it will handle horde nights with us spread apart. Should I get an upgrade? This is what I compiled together as a minimum without rebates https://pcpartpicker.com/list/9nPJxG im willing to go used if it saves me money as long as I can have 8 threads
