A Pocophone F1 would do the trick. It's cheap, and has a Snapdragon 845 SoC which is the 2nd best SoC for gaming right now.

Hi guys, I'm looking for an extra phone to play mobile legends with. My primary phone is an iPhone SE which I really like. I play mobile legends with it, and I get a constant 60 FPS on low settings, and 60 FPS with occasional frame drops on high settings with character frame on. It's a well and good gaming experience for me, but I play several hours per day. Thus, I'd like to get a separate phone for it to preserve my iPhone SE as much, since it's my favorite phone. I don't have a specific budget in mind, but I'd like to spend less if possible. The main considerations for me are the SoC and Screen Resolution. I also play on the lowest settings for competitive reasons. I also have an iPhone 6 Plus and a Huawei P10 to play it with, but either phone is a dreadful experience. iPhone 6 Plus - Lowest Settings: 60 FPS during the start of the game, tons of frame drops during clash, and occasional severe lagging. Huawei P10 - Lowest Settings: Sickening frame spikes between 20 to 60 FPS. Very bad experience to play with. I wonder why this phone can't play ML at constant 60 FPS. Maybe ML doesn't play well with Mali GPU? My goal here is to get a constant 60 FPS on the lowest settings. As for the phones I consider on getting, here's the list. 1.) Xiaomi Redmi 5 32gb (PHP 6,890) - Snapdragon 450 on 720p. It doesn't support the game's high frame rate mode by default, so I have to mod it still, but I'm hoping the SoC + Screen Resolution would get me constant 60 FPS at the lowest settings. 2.) Realme 2 Pro (Not yet available for purchase. Probably around 12k PHP on launch) - Snapdragon 660 on 1080p. A Snapdragon 660 is the lowest I would get on 1080p since benchmarks suggest that a Snapdragon 450 on 720p beats a 625, 630, and 636 on 1080p in terms of FPS. I'm also trying to avoid the Helio P22 on 720p and Helio P60 on 1080p since the Snapdragon counterparts seems to do better. 3.) Pocophone F1 (PHP 17,490) - Snapdragon 845 on 1080p. I'm sure it would get a constant 60 FPS due to it's powerful SoC, but I'm trying to get a good gaming value, thus the considerations of the two prior phones. 4.) Samsung Galaxy S8 (PHP 24,000) - Exynos 8895, can be set to 720p. I've had one before, but sold it due to battery issues. 24k for new is a good deal, I kinda miss it now.

How about the i9-9900k? They should retail for around $480 if the leaks are true. Quite expensive, but really only a $100 more compared to current i7-8700k pricing. I think it's worth it having to tell your friends I'm rockin' an i9 ? It's a personal opinion though ? But if you can't wait anymore, and don't want buyer's remorse, then you can go with either an i5-8600k, or any 1st Gen Ryzen 7. The reason is Intel will retain a 6c/6t config for the 9th gen i5, and the 1st Gen Ryzen 7 is just good value.

Ryzen 7 1800x all the way! That's a sweet deal for $200. Goodluck with your build OP! ?

Yes. But... Check the stable voltage first. 1.35v is as far as I'd recommend. If you can hit 4ghz @ 1.35v, then it's good. But if not, then your current OC is fine. +100mhz on a 4c/4t chip don't do much of a difference anyway.

Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro - Black Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro - White This would work better for your build

Hi guys, Thermaltake - Versa J24 TG RGB ATX Mid Tower Case ($77.98 @ Newegg) I just saw this case while browsing PCPartpicker. This seems to be a fairly new case without reviews yet. I believe it's a budget case, as the prefix "J" suggests. Here are my thoughts on this so far. Pros: Tempered Glass 4 Included Fans. 3 of which are RGB. Mesh Front Panel Can support up to 360mm radiator Cons: Only supports radiator on front What do you guys think of this case? Is this a good value for $78? I believe it even went down to $60 before.

Ohh, you're right. I just noticed now that you're getting a Freesync Monitor. I'd also reckon that getting a Vega for Freesync is the better choice. Vega + Freesync is better than GTX 1070 + Vsync

For 1440p gaming, the 2600 is a good pair for the 1080. It won't really bottleneck. Although, there's more to it than that. I can't explain the anomaly exactly, but I'll try to show it on hypothetical figures. Hypothetical Game Result Ryzen 5 2600 + GTX 1080 = 120 FPS @ 70% CPU Usage and 100% GPU Usage i5 8400 + GTX 1080 = 140 FPS @ 95% CPU Usage and 100% GPU Usage As we can see from the hypothetical result, the GPU is at 100% usage on both instances, thus concluding that there is no CPU bottleneck. However, the i5 8400 has a higher FPS result than the R5 2600. Also, the i5 has a 95% usage as against the 70% usage on the R5. My guess here is that most games tend to favor higher per core performance of a 6c/6t as against a lower per core performance of a 6c/12t. But again, both are great performers and I'd still choose the Ryzen 5 2600 for it's better performance on other tasks. Note: Exception to this Hypothetical Game Result is Ashes of the Singularity. That game tends to favor more threads over higher per core performance.

I see. Well the Gaming X is a good one If you want to go another step higher, you can find a GTX 1080 for 639 AUD. They say that a 1070 Ti is as good as a 1080 when OCed, but there's a rumor that AIB 1070 Ti doesn't OC well at all. Furthermore, you can OC a 1080 which widens their performance gap even further. Video Card: Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB WINDFORCE OC 8G Video Card ($639.00 @ Umart)

All looks good, except for this. The Armor card is MSI's lowest variant for this model, thus the lack of backplate. I'd suggest picking any of these cards below as an alternative. Video Card: MSI - GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8GB DUKE Video Card ($589.00 @ Umart) Video Card: Asus - GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8GB CERBERUS Video Card ($599.00 @ Umart) Video Card: Asus - GeForce GTX 1070 8GB STRIX Video Card ($588.00 @ Amazon Australia)

For the CPU and GPU combo, it's a bottleneck half of the time. But the real performance issue here is the RAM. Single Stick RAM will hurt high FPS gaming. But if you're just aiming for 60FPS. Then Single Stick is fine.

It looks good. i3 would be the ideal choice. A Ryzen 5 1600 or 2600 would be better if you can push it to that

Looks great then. Goodluck with your build and enjoy your PC!

No. Based on the photo, yes, by GPU length. But almost all, if not all single fan 1050 Ti will fit in there. It's slow, but not too slow to be worried about. What you should worry about is that you're running a Single Channel Memory which affects performance.
