Build Above is the link to my build list that i have had since December of 2018. I have been able to overclock the CPU to 4.0 ghz and the RAM to 3333 mhz. My temps for the CPU are usually 45 degrees under load but cant seem to push it any harder. I am happy with my CPU and ram i just am curious if there is something i am missing that isnt allowing me to push it harder.

My budget is a cheap as possible. I was looking for dual 8 pin for my cpu since my mobo supports 8+4. Should I just leave the 4 blank? Also I kind wanted 8 pin pcie for visual purposes. My current 6+2 has like an extra loop in the wire and I hate looking at it that way. I would say sub $100 If possible and if not not much over. I'm in the US

Any advice on actual power supply with the connections I mentioned.

Which tier would be worthy of looking at. Don't feel that post does it justice to understanding what the difference between tiers are and where I should be drawing the line.

I just got done with my build trying to reuse my Corsair CX750 non modular power supply. I would like to replace it with a modular PSU and need some help locating one. Looking for modular, 2 x 8 pin for cpu and 8 pins for pcie Versus 6+2. Looking to spend the the least amount required for those features. Could use help versus sorting through the whole psu tier list.

I was looking to spend $150ish or less.

Which would be? Not sure what good vrm's vs not good vrm's are.

Is it not true that the 2700 can reach similar speeds to the 2700X?

I've heard X470 is the way to go.

I am looking for a good motherboard for sub $200 more preferably $150. I see alot about vrm's and that alot of the X470 don't have great vrm's to help utilize the 2700 to its max potential. Which mobo should I look for. The ASUS prime was my original one I was looking at.

Can I get a helpful response instead of people saying to go thread ripper. 1700x is worth it with new architecture out?

Not in the budget. How do you get that I'm looking to spend $600 on cpu when I'm talking about $160-$250.

I'm talking about a $160-$250 budget for cpu not anything further

I am replacing my current Intel cpu with a new ryzen cpu. Was set on 2600 for $160 but have been rethinking recently that why not spend the extra $100 for the 2700. I will be buying a x470 for the $130-$150 price range and I will not be upgrading my graphics card at this time which is a EVGA GTX 1070 hybrid. I do mainly gaming with alot of office tasks and the occasional stream or YouTube video when time permits. Was a dedicated part time streamer who streamed 20+ hours so my point is I am sticking to my decision of team red. Is the 2600 something that will serve me for a while or should I just go the extra $100 for 2700. The $100 I was going to use on an upgrade from an HDD only to a SSD for a boot drive and stuff and a few minor upgrades. If I spend the $100 on 2700 those other upgrade will have to wait.

The issue is and I am not fully sure how they are all connected by I have 3 wires that are ending on the outside of my house. I see 2 wires in each room (8 plates) and when I was doing my testing I had to connect room X's wires to get room Y too work is most occasions. I can do more extensive testing to further understand what rooms need to be "connected" together in order to reach the rooms I need it in. Also out of the 8 only one room had one wire meaning it was the end of the line. The whole wiring situation was confusing and I had someone here that kinda knew something to help me figure out where the wires went which is why I got even this far.
