Will there be any sort of bottlenecking in this build?

[LightDragon1023]

 

 

 

Hey, so i was wondering which build i should do. i would prefer to do the cheaper build but if if there is a severe bottleneck cuz of the 1660 i am willing to spend the extra money to upgrade. 

unless there is a better deal in terms of the graphics card. btw these prices are aus.

What is the use case?  Gaming?  Making money via video editing?

 

CPU is weak compared to the amount of RAM and SSD you're choosing.  Don't need 750w either.

 

You're spending a lot on cooling, I'd invest that in a better CPU.

in terms of use, its for gaming, Video editing/ graphic designing and web designing. but i need 32gb of ram because chrome chomps so much ram if you have a billion tabs open xD.and for the ssd its from a partner so.. 

and the cpu is weak? i will be overclocking

Compared to the RAM amount and a high end PRO NVMe drive, yes.  8/8 is a weak CPU for editing.  I'd look to Ryzen for that.

better in every regard, more or less. for less.

not for videoediting. rendering its worse than one with HT, but in the actual task of editing, the 9700k is really good.

it might be because i'm from when amd processers were horrible but i cannot trust their products. overheating and product failure is something i have heard of a lot from partners that use amd CPUs or have they fixed those issues?

Editing... rendering...  drawing with crayon... I mix them up at times, thanks for the clarity.

ASk your partners about the new Ryzen processors.  They're basically really damn good now.

that is like minimum 3 years ago. up to around 11 years ago. 

 

hasnt been  a real issue. 

 

AMD CPUs in general are cooler and less powerhungry atm. and CPU failure hasnt been a thing. there has been teething issues. but those has also been fixed. 

[LightDragon1023]

Damn. so you guys are suggesting that i use amd? and that the i7 or the ryzen 7 with be bottlenecked by the 1660 either way?

Both are massivly overkill for the 1660. 

 

The build i picked had a more appropriate balance.

how about the 2060?

@GoldenLag The i7 9700k is a lot better than the Ryzen 7 3700X by far!!!

[Constantin]

Try to get the RTX 2070(S) it will match a lot better.

$260 more expensive.... is it really worth it?

To be honest it is!

It will handle decently a 4k monitor, if you do not have one and plan to get one in the future.

[LightDragon1023]

what is a decent priced 1440p 120htz va or ips monitor?

for 1080p or videoediting. not really worth it, but its certainly quite a bit better.

kinda sub-par for full detail 4k actually. its more suitable fore 1440p at a higher refreshrate.

in what tasks? rendering? no. it also has less threads to distribute tasks. 

 

its better for adobe and gaming. its harder to cool. it also costs more, not to mention to get a decent overclocking board for it.
