Building a gaming comp

[Cdeman]

Im trying to build a gaming computer and cant decide on a ryzen or fx cpu. Can anyone help me out with which is better and why

[Canada EH]

Go Ryzen 1600 cpu with a 1060 with 6GB

or to cheap out buy the Ryzen 2400G and use its igpu

 

FX cpu's are a joke

Honestly with how screwed the market is right now, you wont be able to build a pc for a good price. I'd go with Ryzen APU system and upgrade later, or buy a used GPU.

Why not get a fx 9590 since i could boost it to 5ghz compared to the ryzen 7 1800x max boost to 4ghz

Im not worried about money on this comp

Do you want a room heater with higher cost of use?

Then FX9590 is your beast.

 

Stay well away from FX chips.

 

I assume your more concerned about cash in pocket and GHz. Just buy what was mentioned. Simple.

1st - you would need liquid nitrogen to cool fx9590 even at stock speeds

 

2nd - FX chips are running on outdated architecture. You don't judge CPU purely based on its core clocks.

 

Ryzen CPUs are latest in the AMD family, but soon AMd will be announcing newer ones.

 

Regardless, can you alreast give us the budget, you got like 4000-5000 USD to spend so you don't care about prices?

 

I can't help you here not knowing whats your price range is.

[Cdeman]

10k is my max amount

[Cdeman]

Didnt know that i need liquid nitro to keep the 9590 that cold

[Wonderguy464712]

fucking 10 grand jeez

[Cdeman]

So if i went team blue..what chip would you recommend me getting?

10k in what money ?To cool with n2o youll spend more time filling the cups then using the pc,Plus the cost of it.10k us could get the top level I7 or I9 2066 socket,A x299 board 128gb of ram and dual titans in sli.
