Thanks for the info. Also, how do you get your build to display under your post like that? Did you just enter it into your signature or is there a way to do it automatically?

I guess I should have specified with xmp enabled at the same speed. Thank you

Pretty much the title. For example, I have G.Skill Ripjaws 2x8 3600 cl16, can I mix that with the same speed Crucial Ballistic?

With an Nvidia 3080 what sort of performance difference would I see at 1440p?

Thank you all. Three fans will work great.

I just bought five Arctic p12 pwm fans that can daisy chain together. How many are safe to run together at the same time off a single fan header? Is there a difference between a daisy chain and a splitter? I have a Asus x570 tuf gaming motherboard

Thanks this is great. I told them I'd build them a $500 computer so going under budget is perfect.

Budget (including currency): 500 usd Country: Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Netflix, chrome, YouTube Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3400G 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Processor $149.00 @ Amazon Motherboard

Hey so Im planning on building a $1k system with a 2060 KO Ultra and I own a q70r. Do you think it would be worth it to switch to a rx5600 xt just for Freesync even though the RTX has more feature that I want. I've never used a VRR TV or monitor so I don't know. Maybe Nvidia will add Freesync support over HDMI?

I'm pretty sure they drop June 16th. "That out of the way, B550 is the actually new one that’s interesting. The AMD B550 chipset release date is June 16, with most manufacturer motherboards shipping by July. Outside of chipset choice, the biggest consideration would be VRM quality, PCIe generation usage, and BIOS quality, but that’s a different topic."

Okay makes sense. This is my first build starting from scratch so I want to make sure I'm not making dumb mistakes. How quickly do you think the new boards will sell out on launch day? I've haven't paid attention to product launches in the past.

Oh thanks for the tip on the case, I just assumed I could get the TUF in mATX. And I already bought a WD black since it was on sale for $70 last week and I knew they would go fast at that price. Tbh I don't even know what makes the black more expensive haha

Budget (including currency): $1000 Country: USA Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Rtx Minecraft, Apex, RDR2 Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): PCPartPicker Part List Type Item Price CPU AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3.8 GHz 6-Core Processor $204.99 @ B&H Memory G.Ski

Thanks that's definitely what I'll go with then

Yes but the non X has been sold out and I want to take advantage of my microcenters memorial day sale.
