ok I plan on using this rig for a long time before I upgrade so I most likely will go with the 3600

Do you know what 2nd to 3rd gen is good for my needs? is the 2700x any good or do you think I should spend the extra cash and get a 3rd gen?

So I am in the middle of planing out a new build. But I cannot seem to chose what cpu to go with. These are the cpu's I am looking at currently ryzen 3600,3600x and the 3700x. Also are the 2600 and 1800x cpu any good in 2020? I mainly use this pc for school work and some gaming on the side like at 1080p want more than 60 FPS. My budget is $1500 CAD and my gpu that I will be going with is the gigabyte 2070 super.

Well usually i play GTA V, Red dead redemption 2 all at medium to high settings. But the 1070 is old so I would say 2060 or 2060 super.

noctua's if you don't mind the poop color

You could try and find used fans on ebay that are good condition. Or put on a ARCTIC Accelero Xtreme IV if you don't mind the looks and the no rgb.

As said above 32 gb is too much for just gaming. I have a 1070 and it is hitting +75 FPS with mid to high settings.

when I launch apps nothing happens it is normal, and on startup there is also no noise. Only when I go to access files. Could it be overheating?

really my hard drive failed in 3 years. Well it is going to be a pain to move all my files

So I have this 4tb WD hard drive about 3 years old now and every time I go to use it. Like access the files it makes a whirring noise and then it freezes the file explorer window then after the whirring is done the frozen window is gone and I can access the file or make a new folder or new text document. Is there any way to make the hard drive not do that and so that I don't need to wait for it to boot up then I can access the files. I have tried to go into the power plan and change it from balanced to high performance and I went to advanced settings and set the hard disk sleep option to 0 minutes and still nothing the hard drive is still doing the same thing. thanks

alright thanks

yes I was just going to buy this ram. But it is CL 18. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07FBVYFKH/ref=ox_sc_act_title_5?smid=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&psc=1

so I currently don't have any good ram I have some ram at 2666mhz that was of my old build. What ram do you think I should go with

alright thanks

ok thx I will fix that

Ok thanks

need some help with a new pc build my budget is $1500 CAD but I do not mind if it goes over by a bit like up to $2500. I want this pc to be able to play games at 1440p and 4k resolution at 60fps and watch youtube and browse the internet and do my school work. I built a pc myself using some youtube help but don't know if it is good I have some parts already from my previous pc like the storage and more. Any help is appreciated Edit: I don't know if I should go with the 3600x or the 3700x as the 3600x is currently $265 CAD and the 3700x is $430 CAD. Is there much difference?
