New PC Build

[Ronnmann]

Heyo people! 

 

I'm planning to build a new PC from ground up. Is there anything that is not recommended about this build or does it look fine? 

 

Budget: 1500€  (1630 USD)

I know that this build only has one 1TB SSD, but right now it's not that important and can be upgraded later on. 

The PC should not be any more expensive. ^^"

Looks pretty solid, a couple things though, one that case is pretty expensive, if you like it then by all means keep it, but that is money that could be spent making your PC faster

Thats it

I have already build multiple Pc's in the 800FX so that was just my go to choice ^^" 

Is the Fractal Design Pop Air a good case and nice to build in ? (About 95€)

[Ronnmann]

This case looks good aswell but i can't imagine that it has good airflow from the front

Use case?

 

Just gaming?

 

No productivity?

Damn this is looking fire for real. That's maybe a stupid question but how is Amd's GPU software these days? The last time i used that software was when the RX 480 was new xd

Using it since 15 months now, really it's good imo

The Adrenalin app itself is miles ahead of the Win95 era NVidia control center , everything is in one place (OC/undervolt, global and per Game settings, fan curve, monitoring), pretty neat

Drivers are fine, I had one game (BG3) that crashed in early versions (I just had to lower max clock to get it to work..) and it was fixed a month later (dunno if it's from drivers or game patch), all the rest played just fine

 

+Thanks for the nice feedback !

Plus FrameGen for AMD is coming out for **All Dx11 Games** or whatever that was haha. 

And the Drivers for nVidia are not as stable always as they were years ago  

 

The PC is for a complete Normie that i need to show how to update drives and stuff. Is AMD Adrenaline user friendly?

Yeah what I've said, it's straightforward to use

eh, both brands have pretty stable drivers,

 

just don't play brand new games as soon as they come out and with either brand you will have 0 issues

Looking good thanks for the insight! But this will probably be the build i will buy!   Thanks a lot!

 

Any Tips for anything Amd Specific? 

 

I've build a good amount of pc's but asking is never a bad idea ^^

For building, I'd just advise you get some Thermal paste Guard to avoid paste to spill over, or use a Kryosheet (but it's expensive)

Then always update to latest BIOS, especially on AM5 because it helps memory stability at EXPO speeds

Also you need to adapt your thermal  expectations : 7800X3D idles in the low 50s, jump to 60-70C on any load, and games at 75C+, with any heavy workload (say Cinebench) sending it close to TJMax : undervolting can help, -15 being usually safe 

For GPU, you can undervolt them with no issue by 5 to 10mV, but not much more, then boost power to whatever the max is (depends on models, 0 to +15%); nothing much else to do

Enjoy !

A good to-do list nice

 

Thanks for everyone in this thread, you have given me a lot to think about!
