Posted

Budget (including currency): Euro , 650/680€ max

Country: Portugal

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Mostly csgo,lol,fifa. Might try to play orhers as I will have a new pc.... maybe call of duty and other titles ( wont care if I have to play on medium with decent fps.... )

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): 

60z monitor... will start from scratch. I built 1 pc:

Then a friend of mine told me I could use more than 2666mhz with a z390 mboard... i switch some stuff (mobo, case, rams):

My point is, which one you think its better ? Maybe switch something again to improve ( cant cost more than the build #2).

 

Thanks everyone for your time ! 

Best regards,

SIGMA33

they won't be available in 6 hours though.

Main PC [The Rig of Theseus]:

CPU: i5-8600K @ 5.0 GHz | GPU: GTX 1660 | RAM: 16 GB DDR4 3000 MHz | Case: Lian Li PC-O11 Dynamic | PSU: Corsair RM 650i | SSD: Corsair MP510 480 GB |  HDD: 2x 6 TB WD Red| Motherboard: Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro | OS: Windows 11 Pro for Workstations

 

Secondary PC [Why did I bother]:

CPU: AMD Athlon 3000G | GPU: Vega 3 iGPU | RAM: 8 GB DDR4 3000 MHz | Case: Corsair 88R | PSU: Corsair VS 650 | SSD: WD Green M.2 SATA 120 GB | Motherboard: MSI A320M-A PRO MAX | OS: Windows 11 Pro for Workstations

 

Server [Solution in search of a problem]:

Model: HP DL360e Gen8 | CPU: 1x Xeon E5-2430L v1 | RAM: 12 GB DDR3 1066 MHz | SSD: Kingston A400 120 GB | OS: VMware ESXi 7

 

Server 2 electric boogaloo [A waste of electricity]:

Model: intel NUC NUC5CPYH | CPU: Celeron N3050 | RAM: 2GB DDR3L 1600 MHz | SSD: Kingston UV400 120 GB | OS: Debian Bullseye

 

Laptop:

Model: ThinkBook 14 Gen 2 AMD | CPU: Ryzen 7 4700U | RAM: 16 GB DDR4 3200 MHz | OS: Windows 11 Pro

 

Photography:

 

Cameras:

Full Frame digital: Sony α7

APS-C digital: Sony α100

Medium Format Film: Kodak Junior SIX-20

35mm Film:

 

Lenses:

Sony SAL-1870 18-70mm ƒ/3.5-5.6 

Sony SAL-75300 75-300mm ƒ/4.5-5.6

Meike MK-50mm ƒ/1.7

 

PSA: No, I didn't waste all that money on computers, (except the main one) my server cost $40, the intel NUC was my old PC (although then it had 8GB of ram, I gave the bigger stick of ram to a person who really needed it), my laptop is used and the second PC is really cheap.

I like tinkering with computers and have a personal hatred towards phones and everything they represent (I daily drive an iPhone 7, or a 6, depends on which one works that day)

The i5 10400f in my country is like 30€ more( 35-40$) Plus the motherboards z490 are also expensiver atleast +20€... Here and there...

 

I was going with 10400f at first, then i saw cpu compare data and in-game the difference isnt that big. Take a look https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-9400F-vs-Intel-Core-i5-10400F/4051vs4079

well, you're spending 60 E on fancy fans. I think it's more important to get a better cpu+mobo than fancy fans

Says support 2800mhz, and cpu 2666 max.

Is it risky doing this? In my build #1 I was just doing things to match.

 

I have to do something in the bios to make it run 3000mhz or 3200? Is the correct term "overclock"?

You won't be able to run it at 3000 or 3200, as the bios limits it to 2666. You will be able to run them at 2666 just fine.

Then its pretty much useless to have a Z series motherboard , the B series does the job ..

Someone told me that the Z mobo could run more than the cpu limit itself ( 2666) thats why I created the build #2 . They said to do something in the bios menu... i dont know, but i guess it is like some kind of overclock.

correct. a z motherboard can run ram at 3200.

however, a 10400 + b460 mobo + 2666 ram is still faster than 9400+z390 mobo + 3200ram.
