Is it a good build?

[Shiniontv]

Hello everyone

 

I am wondering if the build I am going to build, which I have linked is any good. I am planning on some streaming and video recording and of course gaming. Not planning to overclock the CPU, and I plan to use the stock cooler.

I am unsure if this is the right stuff to get, but I am curious to see what you all will say.

If you got any recommendations for my build, please let me know, however I am not planning to switch to another Ryzen CPU, just FYI.

I hope you are interested in helping

*Note: I will buy these parts off Amazon.de, as I live in Denmark, so prices may vary*

You should probably add a PSU, Graphics card, SSD, HDD, and case.

[Shiniontv]

I have changed it now, but I have not yet added a PSU and HDD as I already have that.

Looks like a great build

Which PSU exactly? You wouldn't want an older low quality unit to power a brand new rig.

repeating the question from @NelizMastr, but also some other ones.

 

where are you using it for?

 

How much do you want to spend?

Would you have a problem to let the master utility overclock your cpu and not buying an x version?

 

any other preferences I should take into my own list?

Sounds like a great build, but keep in mind that you'll want an 800 W PSU at least and that performance is very slightly better with an Intel chip. You might also want a 1 or 2 TB HDD if you want to store more games and videos. Honestly a great value though because the 2080 Ti is not worth the price.

I have a 1 TB HDD and a 500GB SSD in my current pc, so I can transfer that.

My dad however is not a big fan of AMD, and really wants me to buy Intel. However in my case Intel is more expensive and worse for my cause. What should I do?

i would buy amd, much better value at the moment, i would also think about getting higher clocked ram as ryzen loves faster ram and it may only cost a few extra dollars

 

e.g. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/VtL48d/gskill-ripjaws-v-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr4-3600-memory-f4-3600c19d-16gvrb

 

only 20 dollars more but will preform better:)

[Shiniontv]

Too expensive off Amazon.de

[Shiniontv]

Hello everyone

 

I hope you all can help me, as I want to do some light streaming and videogame recording with my new pc, however I am not sure what would be good to get.

I am looking for an Intel build, so please check out the linked below list, and I would greatly appreciate any help.

 

*NOTE: The SSD and GPU is what I have in my current pc, and will also use for the new one, just FYI*

What's your budget, and what games do you play? What resolution and refresh rate?

I plan to get a 144hz 1080p monitor, and I like to play games like, World of Warcraft, Dead by Daylight and sometimes Fortnite.

About $900-$950 is where my budget is.

Do you plan to re use the power supply from your current build, if so what is it?

It is a 600W Bronze PSU, but I think it will do

No rhymes intended

Yeah, that should be okay.

970 Evo as a boot drive, 2tb hdd for mass storage and 850 evo for games

There's a 240mm AIO which can help if you want to overclock

[Shiniontv]

Do you have a link for the 240mm one? And is there any other mobos you would recommend for maybe OC later on?

Oh okay

Do you have any other mobo recommendations?

This build is actually very expensive compared to a Ryzen 7 2700x build I considered.

-I've used Gigabyte's AORUS Gaming Motherboards(the one with inbuilt wifi) and it's pretty good. \

Honestly though, if you want to do streaming, then ryzen might be a better choice due to it having more cores and threads.

I switched the cpu to a 2700x, motherboard to x470 and ram to 3200mhz. It's about $100 cheaper 

[Shiniontv]

Yeah I have found a pretty good and cheap Ryzen system too. It is much cheaper and what I would call better performance streaming wise

Does it even matter what you're dad wants your PC to have? As long as it suits your needs and it's a good value to you, then go through with the original deal!

Has your dad heard of Ryzen and its great multi threaded performance for a great price compared to the skyrocketing price of Intel CPUs right now?
