  1. My PSU budget is a max of $130 AUD, no leniency. Here's my build: PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor $278.00 @ Shopping Express Motherboard Gigabyte X570 GAMING X ATX AM4 Motherboard $255.00 @ Austin Computers Memory Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 Memory $149.00 @ BudgetPC Storage Intel 660p Series 1.02 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive $199.00 @ Centre Com Video Card Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB GAMING OC Video Card $639.00 @ Shopping Express Case Fractal Design Meshify C ATX Mid Tower Case $149.00 @ BudgetPC Wireless Network Adapter Edimax EW-7811UTC USB 2.0 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi Adapter $25.00 @ I-Tech Monitor AOC 24G2 23.8" 1920x1080 144 Hz Monitor $269.00 @ BudgetPC Keyboard Ducky One 2 Mini Wired Standard Keyboard $149.00 @ PCCaseGear Headphones Kingston HyperX Cloud Alpha Headset $164.30 @ Amazon Australia Custom Glorious Pudding Keycaps 104 Set $45.00 Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total $2321.30 Generated by PCPartPicker 2020-03-02 11:54 AEDT+1100 Don't care about flashy lights and stuff, semi-modular or modular is preferred. Thanks in advance!
  2. This has probably been asked already, but why is the Corsair CXM 2017 a B- psu while the Corsair CX 2017 is a B+? Even though everywhere I look the CXM is just a modular CX?
  3. 1. Budget & Location You may have listed a heap of parts that all add up to your preferred budget but it is easier if you just list the total amount you'd like to spend and the currency as well as if you'd consider going above that budget for more performance. We need the location as well because $US are different to $AUD and $CAD ect. 2. Aim What is the system going to be used for? Web browsing, 3D work? Different systems need different levels of performance - a computer based for web browsing and office use won't handle heavy graphic design and video editing and a proper video editing system isn't good for gaming. If your aim is for gaming, please list what sort of gaming. In the same way that different usage types need different systems, you'll need a lot more power to run Far Cry 3 or Crysis 2 than you would Minecraft. 3. Monitors How many monitors do you plan on running? Do you plan on moving to more monitors in the future? What resolution are they at too? 4. Peripherals Do you also need to purchase peripherals such as keyboards and mice as well as monitors ect. Also please tell us if you'll need an OS such as Windows. 5. Why are you upgrading? We ask this because you may see upgrading as the only path to solve an issue but things such as driver updates, reconfiguration or cleaning can boost performance without spending a cent. Please copy and paste the major dot points into your thread as it makes it easier for us to give you better feedback.
  4. Will you be streaming? If yes, i'd probably go with the RTX card, if your only gonna be gaming, then again, just get whichever cheaper. (I don't understand why you think that's not an option, just compare the two when you are buying and get whichever cheaper lol)
  5. Why do you reccomend a better SSD? I just got this one cuz Crucial is a reputable brand and it was the cheapest 1TB drive (yeah ik, 960, but eh).
  6. What do you guys think on this build? I'm going to be using it for CS:GO, RB6 and the new COD, as well as light streaming and video editing. I'm going to be playing at 1080p, and wanna easily and consistently stay above 144 fps (mostly in cs, which, ik ik, is a very new AAA game that i might struggle to hit 144 Hz in). It was a balance of what I could afford and still leaving an upgrade path for the future. I may wait till the b550 boards come. My budget is about $1700 AUD, and no, i won't be overclocking (might even under volt for longevity, idk). Anyway, yeah! LMK what you would change/replace/remove, and ty in advance for your help!

  7. What's wrong with the deathadder elite? And the Rival 600 is there to accomodate for people who want a large MMO mouse. If it were all based around Zy's choices, as seen in the "Zy's top 10" section, it would all be S2 clones.

  9. Hey guys, yet another time i'm gonna ask, "what do you guys think of this build?". My max budget has basically doubled to $2400 AUD (about $600 on periphs, my max PC budget is $1750), so here's the build i'm planning on. I want to know what you guys think I should change, replace or add. I'm gonna be using this for gaming 90% of the time, playing CS:GO, RB6 and maybe a few others. I want this to last me for a fair while, that's why 1TB is plenty of storage for me (I basically play CS 24/7). In saying this, I still want a bit of an upgrade path.

Please note: - I probably won't dabble in the arts of OCing, as I wanna get maximum use from this build (I might even lower the voltage just to last that little bit longer) - I'm buying this at the end of this year, so of course i'm going to wait till custom models of the RX 5700XT come out so my PC doesn't burn up. - Just pretend the Meshify C is $149, although i'm not set on that case. If you think there is another case that fits my kinda white-and-black themed build, please recommend me it! - I'm going for a white-and-black themed build, although i'm not willing to really drop extra money to fit that theme, it's just a bonus. - If you see somewhere I could easily save unnecessary spent money, by all means remove/replace it. - I'm aiming for 144+ FPS for my 144 Hz monitor, that's why i'm getting this GPU for only CS:GO and RB6 - Finally, yes I do have peripherals in a separate list, and they are all sorted.
  10. Firstly, you should probably put this in this part of the forum: https://linustechtips.com/main/forum/18-new-builds-and-planning/ Secondly, this is very vague. I'm not a PC expert but I do know a few things you should list first, like: -What it's gonna be used for (gaming, work, streaming, CAD etc.) -What games (if applicable) are you going to play? No point dropping $2.5k for a PC to run CS:GO on low settings 1024x768 (like I did xD) -$2.5k-3.5k what? AUD like me? USD? CAD? -Are you planning on upgrading? -How much a day are you going to use it? -Do you have a keyboard, a mouse, a monitor . . .? -And what's your idea of "nice"? Do you mean minimalist with just black and white, or covered in RGB to the point where it could easily have been shat out by a unicorn? Or do you want a black and green build, blue and yellow etc. There is probably more i've left out but there's a start
  11. Hey guys, i'm planning on getting the following PC build. It's roughly $1400 AUD, as my peripherals cost $550ish. My max budget would be $1500 for the PC. I just wanted to know any recommendations/replacements you guys would have the for the build. I'm gonna be using it for gaming, playing RB6, CS:GO, Minecraft (very hard to play ik, hoping for at least 30 fps) and maybe a few others. I won't be overclocking any components. I'm not gonna have many programs as I basically grind CS 24/7, so 500GB is plenty storage. Also I would like to have some RGB, I really enjoy the a e s t h e t i c. Thanks in advance! https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/vhMhWD P.S. Would you guys think a 144Hz monitor is worth it? I mean I don't really know if i'll actually hit 144 fps consistently in some games.
  12. I am a lazy human being, who after a quick google search and scrolling could find nothing on this so-called "4C 4T trap" there is in gaming. I'm pretty sure I first saw it on a thread about the Ryzen 3 2200G vs Ryzen 3 1200. It doesn't need to be in absolute simplest terms, I just want someone to explain it to me. Cheers in advance.
  13. It's not really more expensive, just a different currency. Also the R3 2200G performs slightly worse but $30 less. Also the 470 4GB is about $20 cheaper too
  14. Hey guys, i'm getting a new PC build and would like to see what you can come up with (PCPP lists if you can be bothered). I'm Australian and have a budget of $700 AUD (ish, i will consider going over for performance) I only have one 75Hz 1080p monitor and don't plan to get more, and I have peripherals covered. I just want something I can comfortably play CS:GO, RB6 and Minecraft on at around 100 FPS (I don't mind the game looking bad, i'm coming from a laptop so it's not like I know what the games look like in ultra settings anyway). I don't think i'll be upgrading anytime soon, and something like a 500GB SSD is preferred (don't worry, I don't really use any other software other than the standard stuff and the three games i've listed). Love to see what you guys can come up with and thanks in advance!
