Comrade Jayray

Appreciate it thanks.

Hey so, i recently bought a PC (No i don't build them, yes i am a beta, but i genuinely don't care about building my own) And i recently did a Bios update to version 2406 (My mobo is a B450-F Gaming, by ASUS). I am wanting to upgrade my processor (R5 2600x) to a Ryzen 7 3700X. My question is, do i have the correct Bios version to just install the CPU? I generally hate going into bios. I am really not confident with it. Thanks for the help!

@Herman Mcpootis it looks like a solid build. But the one thing I won’t touch is the bios. Outside of booting from my USB to put windows on. I try not to go there. its super intimidating and I dislike the idea of accidentally messing something up and not being able to put it back, or worse yet, bricking the mobo

@lee32uk I might have to take your advice on that. The 3700x's price is around the same as the 2700x's. Though i am wondering how hot it will run. I hope the Dark rock 4 can hold it. Will they be a noticeable difference between both CPU's?

Yeah maybe getting a better monitor would be a good idea. And oh really? I mean sure i can wait for the 3000 series to come out, but again i only have around £1000, so hopefully the price isn't bank breaking. The Vega 56 seems promising. Though if the Vega 64 drops in price, i may get that instead.

Hey everyone, how's your day? So basically i am building a PC using PCPartPicker, i have chosen some components and am wanting everyones Input on if i am going wrong somewhere. I am wanting to build a PC primarily used for gaming 1080p,60fps, max settings. I am not really interested in 4k. I have a budget of £1000, but i can stretch to £1100 if needed. Though i'd like to be around the £1000 mark. I will post my PCPartPicker link, and i'd like everyones opinion. My main questions are 1. Is this Solid? 2. Can i save money anywhere? 3. 1700x or 2700x for the £85 price difference?

I am looking at a corsair tx650m And thanks for the reply dude

Oh nice man Yeah it's just been hell deciding. And nice man, ill look at a few more comments, hopefully i won't need to spend more than i need to. My budgets at its max

Hey everyone. So i've been reading countless threads about the wattage i will need for a system i'll be buying parts for tomorrow. The specs are as follows Ryzen 7 2700x Vega 56 Pulse 16gb DDR4 Corsair Vengence 3000mhz 2tb HDD 240gb SSD Cryorig H7 Air cooler So as i said, i am reading threads and forums and it seems like no one can agree on the PSU needed to power a system like this. Fan boys say 750w while others say 500,550 and 650w. My question is, can i actually buy a decent PSU like a CorsairTX 650w and be okay? Or do i need to have a 750w PSU. Thanks!
