I entered my data in the form earlier today, but I don't see my info in that list, how do I know if I am on the list or not? Edit: Nvm, I found myself

Why would you get a Vega 56 when the 5700 and 5700 xt are newer and better?

Can Y'all help me figure out which Rosewill case I bought?
Eluchil replied to Eluchil's topic in Power Supplies
You are right. I found a link to someone's review of it, but yeah I can't find it anywhere https://lanoc.org/review/cases/7352-rosewill-cullinan-gaming-case?showall=1 -

Eluchil replied to Eluchil's topic in Power Supplies
I thought that at first, but the front io doesn't match, and it doesn't have the cutouts above the motherboard cutout on the back -
Hey Y'all, I recently got a rosewill case as part of a bundle of used parts and I can't figure out which case it is. I looked on Newegg, Amazon, and even Rosewill's site and couldn't find a case that exactly matched this one. It looks the most like the Rosewill Cullinan MX, but it is a little larger in all aspects. Thanks Y'all!

A couple thoughts, to get the best of deals I would definitely start watching TechDeal's channel and maybe follow his twitter, he keeps his eye out for deals and tweets them out as he sees them. If you don't want/need ray-tracing I would consider getting a 5700xt. It will get you more fps for about the same price. Another thought, if you want to keep your cpu for around 5 years I would look into getting either the 3700x, or the 2700/2700x. I think that in the future games will likely continue to use more and more cores and threads, so an 8 core 16 thread cpu will likely last you longer than a 6 core 12 thread cpu.

first try of building a pc (a bit clueless)

These two both have really good reviews, and if you need wifi the Crosshair VII also has a WiFI version for 270$ https://pcpartpicker.com/product/23gzK8/asus-rog-crosshair-vii-hero-atx-am4-motherboard-crosshair-vii-hero https://pcpartpicker.com/product/jXJtt6/asus-rog-strix-x470-f-gaming-atx-am4-motherboard-strix-x470-f-gaming -

Eluchil replied to Jens O.'s topic in New Builds and Planning
If you can afford it you can do it. But as someone else pointed out to me, for the same price as you are paying for a mid level x570 board you can get a top level x470 board. Plus AM4 is only supported until next year, so you wouldn't be able to upgrade past the 4700x without changing your mobo anyways. And honestly as far as I can tell if you really wanted to upgrade to the 4700x next year a top line x470 board would probably be able to run it. And again, if you are planning on upgrading in 3-4 years you will need to get a new motherboard with your new CPU because by then the AM4 socket will be replaced by the AM5 socket (or whatever they call it then). -

Another thought, if you are getting the 2700x you don't need a x570 board. Get a x470 board and you will get more features for the same price. -
What do you think of this build for gaming?
Eluchil replied to Vntto's topic in New Builds and Planning
If you get a b450 tomahawk max they are ryzen 3rd gen ready, so you woudn't have to do a bios update -

@Streetguru I just picked them because the mouse has the custom keys on the left side and the keyboard has macro keys, but I don't have a preference on the exact brand of keyboard and mouse so if you know of better ones I will happily listen. @Jurrunio Yeah, honestly it is more because I have always kinda preferred ASUS boards, I like the look of the board and it has pcie 4.0 support so if I get something in the future that uses that I will already have a mobo that works with it, that said I understand that future proofing is stupid, would you suggest the gigabyte aorus elite as a good x570 mobo? Also, does the gigabyte aorus elite have bluetooth support? What CPU would y'all suggest? the 3700x?
