  1. Im not actually looking for an RTX card based on the fact ive been hearing Ray tracing reduces fps most of the time. Correct me if im wrong. And i would preferably have this card based on the fact it is water cooled, should be beer than an aircooled card. Im just not sure if the stock cooler on this would be better than something like the kraken, which it probably isn't but i am getting the cooler GPU. Im trying to find out if its worth it. That seems like a turbo graphics card, and from what i have heard the cooling on those cards are dreadful. All i really wanted to know was if the water cooled GPU aircooled CPU would be better than a water cooled CPU aircooled GPU. And i dont mind the price, much cheaper than buying a water block.
  2. About to buy a graphics card for my build and ive been looking into this one by EVGA. Would it be worth buying compared an aircooled GPU and watercooled CPU? Which way is better? https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-GeForce-Watercooling-Graphics-08G-P4-5678-KR/dp/B076X89CWV/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1546712351&sr=8-1&keywords=water+cooled+gtx+1070 Any opinions or advice are appreciated! Thank yuhhhhh
  3. I definitely don't want this to be some super expensive computer, but I am a little flexible. I would hope it is somewhere between 1,300$ and 1,800$, which is my ideal price range.
  4. Tons of rendering and maybe some virtualization. If I do need to do virtualization on this computer, im probably going to swap out the cpu for something with more cores. But as of right now, mainly video rendering (and some programming). Also, thanks for letting me know about the airflow on the graphics card, appreciate it!
  5. Ill take a look at the 9600K, and would you happen to recommend any other case? Or brand? Thanks for the info though!
  6. I just realized I forgot to add the hdd to the list, thats my bad. I chose the z390 as the motherboard because i had heard good reviews on it as well as the intel i5 - 8600K. I chose the vega 56 because I was told that it works well with the type of work i would be doing on this computer.
  7. Oh my I had forgotten to add the hdd onto the list, thats my bad. And I did have some questions about the gpu. I chose vega because I heard it was good for the type of work i was looking to do on this computer. Would you recommend another graphics card?
  8. For the past few months I have been looking for some good parts to build a computer with. I have made this list of what I am about to buy and I just want to see what you guys have to say about it. Should I change anything? Or do you think it is good as it is. All help is appreciated.

It will be used for gaming and programming! (And writing up schoolwork)
  10. And i took out the optical drive, unless you needed it. You can just add it right back.
  11. So here is what i came up with for you; PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant Type Item Price CPU AMD - Ryzen 5 2600X 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor $214.00 @ Amazon CPU Cooler Corsair - H100i PRO 75 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler $89.99 @ Newegg Motherboard Asus - ROG STRIX X470-F Gaming ATX AM4 Motherboard $192.68 @ OutletPC Memory Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory $129.99 @ Amazon Storage Samsung - 860 Evo 250 GB 2.5" Solid State Drive $52.99 @ Amazon Storage Seagate - Barracuda 2 TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive $58.89 @ OutletPC Video Card Asus - GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8 GB ROG STRIX Video Card $429.99 @ Newegg Business Case Corsair - Air 540 ATX Mid Tower Case $119.99 @ B&H Power Supply EVGA - SuperNOVA G3 550 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply $69.89 @ OutletPC Operating System Microsoft - Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit $98.89 @ OutletPC Monitor MSI - Optix MAG24C 23.6" 1920x1080 144 Hz Monitor $268.90 @ OutletPC Keyboard Corsair - K95 RGB PLATINUM Wired Gaming Keyboard $139.99 @ Amazon Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total (before mail-in rebates) $1946.19 Mail-in rebates -$80.00 Total $1866.19 Generated by PCPartPicker 2018-12-08 17:12 EST-0500 Chose the AMD Ryzen 5 over the core-i7 for 2 reasons. It's cheaper and you wont really notice any difference in your games. Because you have more money to spend, i swapped out your old cpu cooler with the corsair - H100. It is more expensive but will is more efficient then your last cooler. I swapped out the other motherboard with the asus board mainly for compatibility fixes, but you can change it up if you want. I stuck with your memory just to keep the build closer to what you had it originally Kept the storage the same Swapped out the rtx2070 card with the GTX 1070Ti ROG STRIX because it's cheaper and you wont really see a big difference with your gameplay Kept the case the same Since you had more money to spent, i swapped out your old psu for the G3 Kept the os the same and you had more money to spend for your mouse, monitor, and keyboard. Upgraded your keyboard to the k95 platinum with CherryMX Brown switches I added a 144hz monitor to your build too leaving some money for a nice mouse too, and maybe some room for change (you can change the monitor if you would like as it is only 1920x1080, but it most likely wont be 144hz)
  12. ok ok, while i go alter this build a little and see if i can find better parts, just gonna tell you this; You could save a couple bucks buying the gtx 1070Ti instead of the rtx2070. There is only like a 5 fps difference with it and ray tracing doesnt work well with everything.
  13. is this budget just for the pc? or does it include the monitor, mouse and keyboard? i might be able to yah out
