PREBUILT PC HELP

[RanchTheHay005]

I recently got an offer from asus for a pc which costs 800 dollars...they gave me two models...

 

a ryzen 7 2700 with a gtx 1660 ti (6gb)

 

and 

 

a ryzen 5 3400G with a gtx 1650 ti (4gb)

 

i am really confused which to buy.....there is not much performance difference between the 2700 and the 3400g...but the 3400g has an integrated graphics card 

 

the thing is this is my first time i am buying a PC with dedicated graphics card and i am not sure how long will the GPU last in terms of life....thats why i prefer a pc with an integrated gpu...just to be on the safe side

 

pls help

2700x and 1660ti cause you are not gonna be using igpu if you have a gpu already in your system

 

And buy another 8gb or 16gb stick for your prebuit cause most of them are single channel ram which cripples cpu performance

the ryzen 7 2700 has double the cores of the 3400g and the 1660 ti is obviously faster than the 1650 ti

 

so system no1 is faster in every category

but the benchmarks of the 2700 is similar to the benchmarks of the 3400g

hi there

 

its not about the speed...but the life....will a dedicated gpu last more than 7 years?....

why would it not?

it might become dog slow but it wont die if that what you're insinuating

yes....i dont care if the gpu slows down after like 7 years...i would only expect it to just work after 7 years lol

 

btw thx for your answers

They Ryzen 7 2700 uses the same architecture as the Ryzen 5 3400G. They're very similar so yes, the performance difference would be small, unless you're playing a game that is more demanding on CPU cores. Then, the 2700 is better because it has more.

Just to be technical, the integrated graphics isn't a "card" because it doesn't go inside a PCIe slot.

 

Between the two systems you're looking at, the 2700 with 1660 TI is just better. Better CPU, better graphics card, but there is also a lot we don't know. What ram, what PSU, etc?

other components are the same

 

a b450mobo....8gb of 2666mhz ram (this will be upgraded to 16 gigs and maybe 3200mhz or 3600mhz)...and a 500w psu

3200 would be good, Zen+ CPUs have trouble with very fast memory

Do you know the model? I hope they're not trying to stiff you with a bad power supply

the website does not tell anything about that...i have faith in asus for not letting me down with a lower tier PSU

try to find out which psu is included please, they're trying to make money, not satisfy your computer needs
