New PC build - advice / ideas

[Pospiv11]

Budget (including currency): NA

Country: Czechia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Gaming, normal workload (excel etc.)

 

Hey guys, looking for an advice. After few years i am looking up for upgrade.

 

So far i looked up following:

 

1. CPU -AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D

2. MB - GIGABYTE B650E AORUS STEALTH ICE

3. AIO - be quiet! Light Loop AIO ARGB 360mm White

4. RAM - Kingston FURY Beast White EXPO 64GB (2x32GB) DDR5 6000MHz CL30

5. PSU - GIGABYTE AORUS ELITE P850W

6. Case - be quiet! Light Base 900 FX

I know i am propably going to hard on this. I am looking for futureproofing (that is the reason for the 9950x3D instead of 9800x3d)

Also i took a downgrade in MB for B650e, because of the "stealth" back build, but from my understanding the diferences with x870e are small.

It will be paired with my current 3080ti - will be replacing with 5080.

 

Thx

V.

Its pretty dumb to buy a 9950x3D for future proofing if you dont ever actually NEED the 8 additional cores. Buy what you need now and what you will actually use, and not a "well maybe if XYZ happens under a full moon on the third saturday" kind of thing.

 

If you are just gaming and light workload stuff, just buy the 9800x3D. You will not notice a difference between it and the 9950x3D.

 

If you were rendering or doing much more CPU intensive tasks for a job, then the 9950x3D may make more sense.

 

What exactly are you playing or doing that you want to upgrade from a 3080ti to a 5080?

What are you future proofing for?

The 9800X3D is not going to be slower in gaming than a 9950X3D in 4-5 years time.

If you do any other work that requires more cores then sure.. Excel does not need 16 cores.

The AIO is also overkill but I guess you want it for aesthetic reasons?

Yeah,

 

kinda needed the slap for the CPU, from both of you lol.

The GPU is simple. I will give my old rig to GF...GPU included...so that is the reason for GPU.

 

As it is for the CPU, i  needed the correction and i will exchange the list with the 9800x3d.

Yeah, the AIO is just for looks. Not much of a selection of nice white AIO's for reasonable price anyways.

As it is for the CPU...i will be replacing the list. x)

Spend the money saved by going with a 9800X3D on some new games for your new rig  

I personally use a 9800X3D and its fantastic! I plan on using it with a 6090 in 2027.

The only thing i was unsure of was the MOBO and RAM.
I knew i went full deep with the CPU selection.

 

RAM i was looking on the results for the 8000mhz ram and from what i can understand it is just not worth the money and possible instability issues.
The MB is mainly for looks but i don't see a real difference with x870e and B650E tbh (i needed the new back MB build for next, i knew that since i saw it).

6000Mhz CL30 is still the sweetspot for Ryzen 9000.

I use a B650 ( ASUS TUF B650 PLUS WIFI ) with my own overclocked 9800X3D without any problems, you don't need a super expensive motherboard for this CPU... It draws around 80-110w during heavy gaming.

Going up to 8000Mhz is going to be at the cost of possible instability without much real world gain in gaming.
