Project Ryzen

[Nathan5660]

After a while i have decided that Project Ryzen is back on!

 

I will aim to save about 80 a fortnight, aswell as any drips and drabs that I have lying around.

 

So by April next year I should be able to start buying parts

 

AMD Ryzen 7 1800x

ASUS NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 in white

EVGA 650 watt PUSU

Corsair Vengence DDR4 RAM in white (16gb kit at 3000mhz)

Asrock B350 PRO4 ATX Motherboard white

Cooler Master Liquid Lite 120 AIO CPU cooler

Areocool Areo 800 case in white

 

How will this system run? 

 

I already have SSDs and HDDs and what not with Windows and games already on so i dont need them. Then when I have my own place I can refit the old PC to act as my NAS and editing work station.

If you don't have the money yet and need to wait more than 3 month don't batter. Why ? Becas the pc space will chance (prices will verry and mabie new parts are released)

You're time is better of look at wese to earn $$$ than looking at a future that's constantly chancing.

From what i could understand from that. I should give up? I earn buttons at the moment, saving up is the only way I am able to buy anything at this point in time. And because of my mental health I NEED something to work towards alongside what im already saving fior

The thing is, the 1800X is already an outdated chip (as it's succeeded by the 2700X) and new motherboards are launching very soon (B450 boards) all contributing to these parts becoming much harder to find a year from now, and prices fluctuate enough as it is. Since you're almost a year from building, you should work towards a set amount of money instead and buy what's best when you can spend it. Preselecting hardware is a bad idea at this point.

Keep saving, but don't expect to buy those parts in April 2019.

By then you would be looking at a Ryzen 7 3000-series, GTX 1100-series and such.

It's pointless to start designing a PC now that you will buy almost a year from now.

And somewhere in next year we should see the 7nm Ryzens too, so 1800x will be super outdated then.

I dont care if everything is outdated. I currently game on an A10 APU. I just want something that will give me 60fps in all games at 1080p. Thats all I want. The parts i found in that list on Amazon total about 1300 UK pounds. So i rounded that up to about 1150 for good measure. I deally the maximum i want to spend is 2000. I used those parts more as a guide rather than anything set in stone. I was just curious as to what the performance of a build like that would be is all. 

 

Things that ARE set in stone though is the case and the PSU and possibly the GPU not sure yet. Depends if 1080 cards drop in price to anything remotley affordable

Outdated, correct. Performance is still good though so it doesn't matter if it's outdated. Though if he's a year off building he might as well just list 2nd gen parts now so he's going for what will be outdated and same price as ryzen 1000 now next year.

Yep. Never said it was bad, but when budgeting outdated parts for purchase a year after can be problematic due to the production already having ceased completely for that part. 

April 2019 is when we should have 7nm Ryzen available, so that's something to look forward to. I don't expect pricing to change much.

That 650 EVGA unit better be a Supernova Gold and not their cheapo B line  and it's rumored that AMD will have a 1070/1080 competitor at 1060 6GB price point either late this year or early next year, so we'll see what's available

I'm actually gonna piss myself laughing if intel don't get 7nm before AMD.

Better get your fresh briefs ready because that's basically already a thing. They don't even have 10nm ready yet and AMD is already close to sampling 7nm Epyc chips. Lol.

Time to get laughing then. The intel 10 nm was such a failure that even the intel 9000 series is still gonna be 14nm(skylake v4), while at the same time amd will roll out the 7nm ryzens.

[xriqn]

I think intel have hit a brick wall with their development then. Perhaps we'll see AMD Ryzen to the very top now?

PUSU

 

hahahahahahahhahahah

 

But seriously good build but recommend a 240mm AIO.

Cooler Master Lite 240 is wonderful, or you could go with the Deepcool Captain 240EX White if your budget allows it.

Hey there. Good build  you have there. Just a few notes I want to ask.

 

1.) How much of a price difference would there be if you get a Ryzen 7 1700 or 2700 instead? If any of the two would be significantly cheaper, then I suggest that you replace it with that. A Ryzen 7 1700 gets the around the same clockspeed as the Ryzen 7 1800x when OCed on most instances. So you could probably save some money here.

 

2.) What specific EVGA PSU are you getting?

 

3.) Could you get something like a 240mm or a 280mm AIO cooler? The one you chose is actually fine, but it's not better than your standard aftermarket air cooler.

 

4.) If it's Windows 10 that's installed on your SSD, then just make sure that you've done the necessary steps to have it activated again on your new hardware since Win10 License Key is tied to the motherboard
