First Pc for Gaming

   Im going to build my very own gaming pc. I just need help on some parts and how good they would function mostly on gaming. Here is the list of computer parts I choose for my build. If their is anything incompatible or something i could get cheaper please notify me.

  1. CPU- AMD FX-8350 4GHz 8-Core Processor
  2. Motherboard- Asus M5A78L-M PLUS/USB3 Micro ATX AM3+
  3. Memory- G.Skill - Ripjaws X Series 16GB (2x8BG) DDR3-1333
  4. Storage- Western Digital - Blue 500GB 3.5" 7200RPM Inter Hard Drive
  5. Video Card- MSI - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 
  6. Case- Cooler Master - Master Box Q300L MicroATX Mini Tower 
  7. Power Supply- EVGA - BR 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX 

   Mostly im going to do gaming on this build. Most games i would play are games like,

  1. Fortnite 
  2. CS:GO 
  3. Modded Minecraft 
  4. Overwatch
  5. PUBG 
  6. Stardew Valley
  7. Call of Duty: Black Ops lll
  8. Call of Duty: Black Ops llll (maybe if this pc can handle it)
  9. Moonlighter

   I will play these with but mostly with shadows off like Fortnite. Their is no necessary for shadows on the game so on that i will have it off. Going to play on a 1920x1080 monitor. Also here are some questions I have that if you guys can answer, it would be grateful.

  1. How would Fortnite handle a 8-core processor?
  2. Is 8-cores good for gaming?
  3. Would their be a SSD that could match up to the HDD I have on the list?
  4. Could this motherboard on the list handle a 144hz or this build handle it?

So you basically want to build a 7 year old PC with a new graphics card? (also, that profile pic is well... edgy)

 

Also, that board will fry with a FX 8-core. The VRMs are crap.

 

If you're building new, and money is tight, go for a Ryzen quad core and 8GB of RAM and you might be able to squeeze in a RX570.

PC Specs - AMD Ryzen 7 5800X3D - MSI B550M Mortar - 32GB Corsair Vengeance RGB DDR4-3600 @ CL16 - ASRock RX7800XT - 660p 1TBGB & Crucial P5 1TB - Fractal Define Mini C - CM V750v2 - Windows 11 Pro

i wouldnt recommend a fx-8350 to anyone doing a new build. I'm not sure your budget, but look into ryzen 1700 or 2600

Well you did pop into a huge PC Master Race convention with a Console icon ;)  We'll just assume you game on the PC with a controller :)

 

What is your budget?  Do you need monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc?

 

Hell that CPU will even bottleneck itself it's so bad. My son has one still and it plays Fortnite fine with a 7870.  It's not the worst thing ever, just old.

Yeah, I would probably recommend Ryzen 3 over FX 8-core tbh.

What's your reason for choosing FX? Is it because you can get used DDR3 for cheap these days?

If that's the case I'd recommend you find a Haswell CPU and mobo.

Room to upgrade ram and CPU with the decent motheboard. Get a graphics card from eBay to save money, highly recommended.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

I would suggest you shop around eBay and the like for a refurb monitor, and a grey market W10 CD key for $5

The PSU deal is pretty hot tbh

Wouldn't be better just to have 1 storage instead of 2?

While some people disagree, I think an SSD is essential to any modern PC build.

So Windows goes on your 120GB drive, which is a lot faster than the 2TB drive.

Games and other stuff go on the 2TB drive.

Could this motherboard on the list handle a 144hz or this build handle it?

Didn't notice this question at first. Yeah there's no way your build could do 144Hz with any playable graphical settings, and if you have the money for a 144Hz Monitor you have the money for a modern CPU.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

how did i even put a good PSU and 1060 6GB onto this part list

 

you'll need to get a monitor seperately though

Ryzen 7 3700X / 16GB RAM / Optane SSD / GTX 1650 / Solus Linux

I guess the motherboard could handle it, but you'd need a faster CPU and GPU
