G630 or G707.

 

The G359 has a 3060 non-ti, which is a disappointment of a card IMO. 

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Sure I got nothing else to do 😉

 

G630 is a 10700, ASRock Z490 Phantom Gaming 4/AX board, and a 6700XT

 

G707 is a 3700X, ASRock X570 Pro4 board, RTX 3070

 

G359 is an 11700, ASRock B560M-C/ac motherboard, RTX 3060

 

All appear to have identical 1TB SSD and 32GB of 3200mhz RAM and come in what looks like a Lian Li 205

Thanks. I really hope some day i can open that store again, i have a blast looking at it.

 

Anyway, back on topic, +1 on the 707. While the 3700X is pretty backward as far as zen generation goes, its still a super amazing gaming CPU.

I was leaning towards the AMD as well but I checked some videos of the of the intel ones and they seem to perform a bit better gpu wise for the games I plan on playing in term of fps. I’m an AMD fanboy so trying to justify it lol. 
 

thanks for feedback  everyone!

Option 3

 

I7 is plenty for games, you can probably save a few bucks and only get 16gb of ram, games won't benefit from more. I7 should edit vids (not 4k) well enough, just keep it cool.

Do you think the AMD would be better when it comes to 4K editing ? Seems like it would be

Option 3 has the worst motherboard and video card.

Ryzen 7 & up will do better than Intel for vids and some CPU tasks but that benefit is moot when it comes to games, hence why I recommended I7.

If you gonna edit video you REALLY want CUDA acceleration and as much as you can muster with your dough. And in my humble opinion, a modern 6-8 core can easily run it either way, so i would trade cpu performance for a lot more GPU horsepower because thats not the Ti version, its the 3060.

Oh man lol

 

this is hard to choose

 

Okay, how about this

 

rtx 3060(non ti) or the 6700XT 

 

I’ll be gaming on it for the most part. When it comes to editing, usually it’s just 4K go pro vids no longer than 10 mins long for my motovlogs so not much horsepower really needed there

So the fact that the 6700xt has 12gb is irrelevant… got it.  Thanks!

it might change the longevity, if you are going to play games at 8k, but i dont think you will like 10fps gaming

I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for the help on choosing the right rig. I went for the G707. Do not regret it one bit. Mainly use it for MSF2020 and some video editing. She performs like a beauty.
