Would like a final sanity check before I order my parts. Posted: 21 Aug 2019 06:20 AM PDT
Will be using this for 1080p 75fps gaming. Would like advice on the mobo + case, those are the two parts I'm most unsure of. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
PC Camp @TheLibrary was a success! Posted: 21 Aug 2019 11:29 AM PDT Hello all, I am a youth librarian that ran a PC building camp this week. We had some grant money available for technology and I decided to use it to upgrade the Teen Computers. I bought parts for 3 different builds (some recycled, all new w/apu, and all new w/ GPU) The kids had so much fun building and learning. They couldn't believe that it is actually cheaper to buy parts and assemble a computer than it is to go out and buy pre-built. I got some good advice from the fine folks here. Thanks for a great community! For the recycled PC, we reused a power supply and SSD. For the all w/GPU we used the Ryzen 5 1600. We also used 16gb ram in that machine.

Build almost ready need help finalizing Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:22 PM PDT https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Rs4yD2 The above pc partpicker is the build that I am looking at building. The only thing I have is the Case and the 5700 XT Sapphire. The only purpose of this build will be to play WoW Classic with zero issues and potentially other games in the future if I get back into computer gaming. Also want to make sure that this is a little future proof. Questions:
If there is anything else you think I can change please let me know! [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Sanity Check - Streaming + Gaming @ 1440p 144hz mITX Build Posted: 21 Aug 2019 11:16 AM PDT
I have a PSU from a previous build I can reuse as well as another SSD (SATA not m.2). My primary goals will be to stream at a reasonable quality and play 1440p @ 144hz...or thereabouts, on a variety of games from AAA to Stardew Valley. I would like something in a small-ish form factor. I understand the h200 (probably will get the h210) is not the smallest, but it seems to have a lot of features and decent cable management. I am down to go a little premium, as I am treating myself a little bit and moving on from a ~$500 budget build from ~5 years ago with a donated 780ti. However, I don't want to overspend for the sake of overspending. Going to grab a Blue Yeti and a decent 1080p camera as well. I may play with overclocking at some point, but will look into an AIO solution when that time comes (or is there a good reason otherwise?). As I understand, the 3XXX have very little headroom as it is...so it may not even be worth looking into? I have a few questions:
Really appreciate the advice, and happy gaming :) [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5700 XT OCed vs 2070 Super OCed? Posted: 21 Aug 2019 03:19 PM PDT Also, does NVENC add more worth to the price difference if I do recording while gaming? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Hey guys looking to make sure this GPU will fit my computer Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:44 PM PDT Hey guys, I'm slowly trying to get back into computer gaming after 10 years away. I'm trying to slowly build a new pc but for now just upgrade the one I have to make due. I currently have a gateway FX6800-01e. This one, https://www.cnet.com/products/gateway-fx6800-01e/specs/. Ive upgraded to 12gb ram and also put in a new sshd. I know that it's not gonna be powerful by any means but would like to at least be able to play some newer games. I'm looking at Saffire pulse RX 570. It's showing $122 right now on Amazon and would like to just make sure my Mobo can run this at all.

Ryzen 3900X Build for Video Editing Posted: 21 Aug 2019 01:27 PM PDT Building around the Ryzen 3900X for video editing in Adobe Premiere / DaVinci Resolve. First build in over 10 years. Occasional gaming - no AAA titles. I have a 1440p 60Hz IPS monitor. Budget is a max of $2500 USD.
I have the CPU, the XPG Gammix S11 Pro, and peripherals (monitor, mouse, etc). Looking to buy a GPU down the line once I'm sure of what I need. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Need Help With My First Ever PC Build (ASUS Prime x370-pro, AMD Ryzen 7 2700x, AMD Radeon RX580) Posted: 21 Aug 2019 04:59 AM PDT So I ordered all the parts for the first ever PC build in my life. Just to make it clear to anyone here, see my List Of Parts
Everything arrived and I assembled it (note that I was using an ESD wrist band bonded with the case). Made Sure Everything Fits
Connected All The Required Cables
What Happend On First 'Boot' I plugged in the PSU to a working outlet and pressed the cases power button, at the time a keyboard, mouse and monitor (via HDMI cable inserted into one of the GPUs slots) were connected - it booted up, the fans started to spin and it kept spinning. There was no video coming from neither the GPU's nor the CPU's HDMI slots. The build kept on running (fans spinning, LEDs illuminating) for about a minute before shutting down by itself. Consequent Attempts To Power Caused The Following Behaviour
So I Researched The Problem, None Of the Below Steps Worked
More Source and Even More Source PROBLEM - NOW THE PC WONT BOOT AT ALL!!?! Okay, I start feeling very intimidated, I plugged in all the parts again so the setup was the same as at the first time booting, conntected PSU, pressed Power Button - DEAD, NO REACTION. Atr this point I basically unplugged and plugged in again basically everyhting, I even attached a leftover Piezo I have onto the internal Speaker pins but since it wont boot at all, none of the solutions worked. So At Last Resort All That Was Left To Try Was
None worked, now I am stuck with a build that wont show any signs of life (note that the MoBo RGBs keep on illumniating, that's all what's left) after I tried several troubleshooting steps. I am now afraid I might have broken or shorted anything in the process, allthough I would not know how. Furthermore, there is literally noone I can ask for help on the matter as none of my friends and close relatives know anyhting about building a pc let alone ever had any experiences with it. Also I cannot spare any parts since my only other pc is a laptop. What should I do now? If you have any suggestions, please leave a comment, I am so afraid I just trashed some parts by doing something wrong. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Wondering if these parts is the best I can get without breaking the bank Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:42 PM PDT I'm going to build a pc and was planning on using the following components: Would these be good together? Or is there any improvements I can make within the same price range? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:38 PM PDT Help! Please see my previous post here too. I basically upgraded my Gpu and removed ram (I have 24 gigs of mixed ram and I wanted all dimms to be the same) and after removing some ram my PC wouldn't boot. It now boots again, but with only one of the 2 corsair dimms I have showing up. I need the complete 16 gigs, not 8!!!! Please help. I've tried reseting the RAM, but it either results in my PC not booting, or in only half if my ram showing up again. If it helps, I think the pc won't boot with one of the ram sticks, but will boot with the other. Will I have to RMA it??? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ended up buying a prebuilt pc from Best Buy bc of mislabelled price. Posted: 20 Aug 2019 08:52 PM PDT I went to Best Buy to start my process of building a pc. I consider myself somewhat knowledgeable about technology but I have no clue about building a pc. The sales rep at Best Buy (who I know) was very knowledgeable and was trying his best to help me get the parts I needed but could tell I was getting confused. I walked him over to the computer section to a prebuilt demo CyberPowerPC I had been looking at the week before that was $1400. I told him that it might be easier with my limited knowledge to start with this and then start upgrading parts. The actual computer box was on the shelf below the demo but misprinted as $1150 and said he has no choice but to give it to me at that price if I want it. I bought it and thanked him profusely for the good deal. The question is should I have still tried to build my own pc? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:34 PM PDT Is the stuff on AliExpress any good is everything cheap crap. I just started scrolling through some of it is interesting just not sure about quality. Due to the videos from Linus and a few others I'm not too sure about it. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 04:44 PM PDT Need a PC build solely for streaming, trying to run a double PC streaming set up, but my single PC can't handle it. Playing fortnite (game i'm streaming) is fine, hits about 200 FPS on the settings i'm running, but streaming while playing is a no-go. So i'm thinking of getting a seperate new PC to handle the streaming while i'm gaming on the current one. Thoughts? [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Posted: 21 Aug 2019 05:04 AM PDT I've got plenty of useful feedbacks these last 4 months. Here are my parts!
Still on the fence about the case, I really like Focus G's aesthetics but I'm still thinking if Cougar MX330-G or Cooler Master Masterbox Q330L can give better airflow. I decided to keep Bitfenix Whisper as according to Linus' PSU tier it counts as a Tier A+ and I'm able to get it at a quite affordable price. I'm on a budget so I have to save as much as possible. Comments and suggestions are very much welcomed! [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Need help picking a motherboard for 3600 Posted: 21 Aug 2019 02:29 PM PDT I've decided to upgrade my PC, and I've settled on a Ryzen 3600 CPU. I need some help picking out a motherboard, and I would greatly appreciate any help you guys can give.
With all that in mind, and my small budget, I've been looking at the following boards, each of which are around $80
So far I'm leaning towards the MSI B450-A PRO, but I'm not really tied to any of these. If you guys have another board at a similar price point I'm all ears. Specs on the rest of the PC: PCPartPicker Part List
(Parts marked as $0 are being kept from my current PC) Thanks for any help you guys can provide. [link] [comments] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
