  1. I suggest you go for 8GB RAM and the Gigabyte Aorus B450 M. Are you planning on overclocking?
  2. The specs are still currently leaked. Therefore, it is not guaranteed that NVIDIA would release the RTX 3000 series (including the RTX 3070). Perhaps they may rename the RTX 3000 products to something else. Leaks are predicted, while Releases are factual. The GTX 1070 is still a very good card IMO. But if ray tracing and higher performance gaming is more of your thing, then consider going for an RTX 2070 Super. However, I wouldn't suggest waiting for RTX 3000-series GPUs yet.
  3. don't forget to install the necessary drivers as well
  4. I'm talking about what would make people consider going for a pre-built or custom. Granted that Customs may be better in terms of price and performance. Custom can be either self-built or built by companies using the parts you picked.
  5. just curious if that CPU would bottleneck it
  6. "Better" in terms of: * Cost * Time * Preparation * Quality
  7. is your zbook an intel xeon or an intel core? also, how much ram does it have? you should be able to upgrade it because it is not soldered to the motherboard.
  8. To add to that point, you can't build your own laptop because mobile components are not affordable and they cannot be bought individually. Also, most components of the laptop are soldered to the motherboard, although some laptops have socketed CPUs and SODIMM slots as well. But hey, you don't need to waste your time putting the components in - the manufacturers will waste their time for you. Custom PCs and prebuilt PCs are just built the same way, with the same components and stuff that a computer needs. The difference is that who will build it.
  9. gtx cards have no ray tracing cores in them, but they I predict they would be budget ray tracing cards if they ever exist.
  10. That, I can agree with. CPUs are overclockable but motherboards in prebuilts don't let you overclock it. Ngl motherboards and PSUs in prebuilts are not that decent.
  11. Prebuilts and custom built PCs are both upgradable.......... if you learn and find out how to do it. When upgrading internals such as RAM and hard drive, you learn how components are put into the PC/motherboard.
  12. I assume you are saying that everyone here are good at building their own PCs with individual parts. Think again. Think about newbies as well.
  13. Prebuilts come with warranties but custom built pcs don't. Therefore, if you don't know how to build or fix your own PC, consider going for a Prebuilt.
  14. Guys, just out of curiosity, do you think prebuilt pcs or custom pcs are better? Post your opinions here.
