  1. @Shabba @lee32uk I agree. But I just was thinking that he can put some of the gpu money towards the new cpu and get a new gpu but that's kind of stretching it.
  2. I found a 2070 on ebay for $600 so i'll definitely think about that or a cheaper 2060.
  3. @Dedayogi'm looking at recently completed orders on ebay for the rog strix rx580 he has and it's sold for as high as $600. i could sell that, get a 2060 for him. Sell the cpu, put some of the GPU $ towards that and have an almost-new system.
  4. the 9600kf was purchased about a year ago as my son's first build
  5. Is his 550w 80+ Gold (Seasonic Focus Gold) enough for the 9900K as well?
  6. Also, if he doesn't want to spend the extra cash to get to $299, the i7 9700k is there for $219. We'll work out the numbers and think about it. Oh the 9700k is sold out.
  7. Yes there is a store in my city and oh my gosh it is really cheap there. Just checked the website. That will definitely be an option.
  8. How much $USD should I put the i5 up for in order to accommodate that? Oh also, he never reaches near his 16gb of ram. The highest he's used at once is 12gb maybe? A ram upgrade is definitely coming fairly soon though.
  9. @DedayogYou're saying I can sell his i5 9600KF to get a 9900K for him? I don't want him to spend too much on the upgrade so we'll just stick with Intel @Shabba
  10. All of those settings seem to be already in place.The output res is the only thing that he has different. I'll just upgrade his CPU, thanks.
  11. He factory reset his PC about a month ago since he was having internet problem thinking that would solve it so whenever he installed it since. No longer than a couple months though. And he streams at 900p60 since we heard that it can handle 6k bitrate smoothly.
  12. i'll create a thread this weekend to get help with exact overclocking settings in the BIOS.
  13. I tried to overclock all of his cores to 5ghz before and after about 10 minutes into gameplay it blue screened forgot about trying to get advice ever since.
  14. Oh yes that is definitely in mind for mining. But the i5 PC is my son's PC (this is his account as well) and I was wondering if he could start mining with that.
  15. I'm looking at his streamlabs setting and for the encoder he uses the GPU (AMD Encoder) with a 6000 bitrate. What games did you stream/record?
  16. Yes it can take any LGA1151 CPU. But I'll sell his i5 9600KF to get the i7 9700 or the 9700KF and if the price is a little over, he can probably sell the AIO and get a cheaper, good air cooler or go from a 240mm AIO to a 120mm or something. I'll figure out the numbers. Thanks for the help guys.
  17. Yes, CPU. He says he can have GTA V or Fortnite open the same time as Roblox and they both run perfectly with the GPU at about %85-%90 which is good. I think the 8GB of VRAM really benefits with that. But the CPU usage is the main concern.
  18. Would I have much overclocking my son's CPU to get more performance out of it? I don't if the VRM cooling on the mobo is sufficient enough to withstand overclocking the processor. CPU: Obviously i5 9600KF CPU Cooler: CoolerMaster ML204L Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 UD
  19. He complained that when he's streaming for example Fortnite with StreamLabs then he opens up the browser to show something on stream, his usage peaks almost at 100% lagging his stream for everyone then the minimum is about 90% after that.
  20. And he needs to sell it because he doesn't have the type of money to spend just buy selling a few parts and getting new, better ones so I thought he would be better off selling the whole thing to build a fresh system. And he's had it for a few years and I'm pretty sure he's grown tired of the basic PC case lol.
