I’m new to building PC’s, what is a riser cable and how do you fit a graphics card that isn’t a low profile fit in a SFF?
-
I am having trouble figuring out what is the best low profile graphics card that will fit in a HP Compaq Elite 8300. CPU-i5 3470 PSU-250 watts RAM-4GB Storage-250GB HDD My budget is $60, willing to push to $80

Awesome thank you!
-
Thank you, I will take a look into this!

Not for any serious gaming, if anything, running a game and 720p 60fps at best, going to be using this just as a recording PC for I have a gaming one already up and running
-
Wouldn't the MoBo need to be compatible with the GPU or just ANY PCIe GPU card?
-
Yeah, I didn't realize that I needed the GPU till after I was trying to run it, I thought I messed up with the whole build and thought I damaged the CPU, but it was just the GPU I needed. Thanks for the recommendation. I am just looking to get some casual gaming in, but nothing to run Triple A games or do much besides getting a video feed

Hey guys, I have made an oopsie when it came to building a computer. So I have just built a PC however I didn’t realize that I need a GPU for graphics (rookie mistake). My current build is: CPU:AMD 1500X MoBo: ASRock AM4 B450M Pro4 MicroATX RAM: 8GB DDR4 3000mhz PSU: CX450 Case: CoolerMaster Q300L I’m looking to find the cheapest GPU/best GPU that can work with this MoBo.

Budget Dedicated Streaming/Encoding PC (not gaming)
Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
Seems like that would be an investment in itself Big yikes, but I think I will hold off on upgrading my gaming rig a little while longer, just looking for that perfect budget streaming PC so that I can have less load on my PC when streaming/recording and gaming. But I will keep that in mind, thank you for bringing that to my attention! -

That CPU alone is the same amount as the encoding pc one :0 Which one is the better buy though? the R9 3900X or R7 3700X -

Currently in my Gaming PC, I have a R5 1500X, should I purchase the 1700 to swap my CPU's out then use that 1500X on the streaming rig? -

I understand about the RAM, I currently have 16GB in my current PC. I think I would eventually upgrade my gaming PC to have that R7 1700, seems like it would be more beneficial to have that in the gaming setup right? -

Alright, Looks like the R5 1600 is the way to go in terms of CPU encoding! Thank you for your help! This gives me a lot of insight as to what to look for -

Maybe in the future I will consider to get on of those, but I for now, I think I may stick with CPU encoding though -

Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
Alright, I think I will take your consideration of parts list to use. Didn't know there were 3000 DDR4 RAM that cost that low for 8GB. Also, I don't need much RAM for streaming purpose though right? It's just to run the process of the programs and all? -

Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
I see. I haven't bought any parts at all just yet, but I think I will go for the Corsair 450 rather than EVGA's 450. I am not really looking to spend much on the GPU itself, plus this is just for dedicated for streaming and I would want to use CPU encoding if I don't have to pay and arm and a leg to get the GPU Encoding. -

Which is better encoding, GPU or CPU? I have heard that CPU has cleaner encoding but GPU has faster encoding -

Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
I see, thank you for shedding some light about all this! I appreciate it all I think the storage that I have is enough (256 SSD) The PSU, I have a EVGA 450, is that lesser to the cx 450? Also is the Gigabyte B450M DS3H not a Pro4 Board? How would I know if it was? -

Thank you for your opinion! Any GPU's do you have in mind? I am familiar with Nvidia GPU's but are there anything else out there? -

Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
Thanks for letting me know! So I should spend the extra for the 2400G, will I need to get a GPU as well or will this be good enough for dedicated streaming purposes? Also is the B450M MoBo suited for the 2400G? I wouldn't need to update the BIOS or anything right? -

Stitch_MJ replied to Stitch_MJ's topic in New Builds and Planning
Thank you for your recommendation, so should I go for more of the R5 2400G like how 191x7 spoke of to use? Plus the $30 GPU. Do you have any recommendations? -

Thank you for recommending that one, what is SMT? -
Hey guys this is my first time on this forum and I just wanted to have some opinions on building a second PC. My first build was a simple gaming rig that I use for Video Editing, Streaming, Encoding, etc. and I just wanted to have some feedback as to what parts I should buy for a second small PC dedicated for streaming and encoding purposes. Here are the parts that I have in mind so far, please let me know whether or not I should stick with the parts or change them out! Budget: $400-$450 USD Motherboard: GIGABYTE B450M DS3H CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 2200G Memory: HyperX Kingston Technology FURY 2666MHz DDR4 Non-ECC CL15 DIMM 8GB DDR4 2666 MT/s Storage: ADATA SU800 256GB 3D-NAND 2.5 Inch SATA III SSD Power: EVGA 450 BR, 80+ Bronze 450W Case: Thermaltake Versa H17 Black SPCC Micro ATX Mini Tower I am not sure if I should get a GPU like a 1050ti or just stick with using AMD's Vega Graphics for the encoding purposes. I appreciate all feedback and I will ask for any clarification for any comments I don't quite understand. I am also still very new to building PC's
