Budget build?

Go to solution Solved by Jurrunio,

You can fit a 1080ti with this build if you can afford it. It all depends on what resolution, refresh rate and budget you have

 

G1/NEX supernova PSUs are much worse than G2/G3, so make sure you get the right supernova.

 

Try get faster RAM for Ryzen. It helps a lot. 3200MHz ones seemed to be much more expensive than 3000MHz/2800MHz ones, so I'd say you can target the latter 2 if 3200MHz ones cost over 15% more.

Good morning guys,

 

I'm trying to figure out which graphics card would fit my build the best. Here's what I have:

 

-Asrock AB350m Pro 4

-EVGA SuperNova Gold 650W

-AMD Ryzen 5 1600

-16Gb GSkill Ripjaw DDR4

- 250Gb Samsung Evo

-2Tb WD Black

 

Any critics are also welcomed.

 

Have a great day,

P-A

First, which model Supernova, what speed is the ram? Where are you located and what is your budget? What resolution are you looking to play games and at what refresh rate?

Budget?  I would say a GTX1070 or RX580/GTX1060, but prices are kinda jacked right now, or at least they have been (I haven't checked in a while)

Budget? Resolution? A 580 or 1060 would be good for 1080p, 1070 for 1440p, 1080/ti for 4K.
