Should i waste my money on this fine shitposting machine?
Aiden Sanchez
Yes.
Only 600w is okay tho
Gabriel Hill
what the fuck is up with the meme that your pc must have a SSD? like i see people pretending that its some kind of a reguirement, I even seen some go as far as putting a 120gb SSD and no other storage.
I guess I'll switch out the ram for something less memey, anything else? i'm ready to just buy the thing

Is pic related my best bet if I want a fullsized graphics card in a Mini-ITX case?
Hudson Allen

Christian Diaz
>Is pic related my best bet if I want a fullsized graphics card in a Mini-ITX case?
Pic related. In pic it is housing a radeon 7990. Only thing is if you want good cpu cooling or a lot of hard drives, this isn't the case for you. You'll be running either stock cooler or a 120mm AiO for the cpu. Can fit up to 3 ssds. Or 2 and 1 3.5" drive. The 2 ssd mount points take up the DVD drive though.
Levi Morris
What semi/full modular 80+ gold psu do you suggest?
Such as? >inb4 Biostar

Put a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO, its way cheaper nigger

It's usually a $20 difference over an average size spinny drive and gives any PC at all a noticeable boost in startup and file saving/loading The price/Gb is literally the only reason to stay with HDDs
Alexander Torres
Nah, I always pick the cheapest EVGA 600 i can get. Is not like you would have problems with a 1070.
I'm fine with no HDDs, but need a decent CPU cooler.
Kevin Murphy
Because people are dumb. If your budget is so tight you can only have a 120GB ssd, then get a mech 1TB drive hands down. Other than that, ssd is like night and day compared to HDD for everyday use. Boot times no with standing, even bargain bin ssds are much much faster than even the fastest mech disk. Seek times are drastically improved so there is no more waiting for anything. I can literally have my PC start cold, have Firefox, steam, and my remote desktop connection up after 10 seconds of hitting the desktop. SSD storage is so cheap now, there really is no reason to NOT have one. Not a meme if it benefits you. Only people who claim SSDs are a waste or meme are those who have never used one.
I do a lot of video editing and I can say the difference beteeen using a mech disk or ssd as scratch space is leagues apart. Render times are faster, everything is. Even 2 mech disks in raid 0 can't compete. Then you also have to worry about array failure. Plus the problem of disk noise etc.
Brandon Perry
>ashley user...
Ayden Adams
It'll fit bigger AiO 120mm cookers like the H80i GT.
The only cheaper 600-650W, semi-modular, gold certified psu is a Corsair CSM and if i have to chose between corsair and SeaSonic, i take the later.
>Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3 The Asus is actually cheaper in EU, but the prices here compared to USA are way too high anyways.
Christian Hill
I see.
Pull the trigger
Jeremiah Phillips
depends on how lazy you are. I am pretty lazy so I picked up a synology 1812 and haven't had a hitch yet. I would also wager that one of their enclosures will be quieter and cooler than one you build yourself.
Daniel Gutierrez
>pay 20$ more or less to get one tenth the storage and a faster boot
makes sense
Landon Young
Can you torrent and seed from them?
Nolan Miller
What if my build has no fans?
Caleb Cooper
There is nothing obviously wrong with your build.
If you care about saving money you could cut cost on your HSF / Mobo/ Case/ Ram
You probably don't NEED 16gb of ram or a Full tower or one of the best Nocturna HSFs.
But if the cost isn't a problem. You're good to go.
Exactly, do that and make it your boot drive, and since HDDs are going way down in price since the market is dying, use a cheapass spinny for data that isn't time intensive The most noticeable difference is boot times, but if you save and load huge files often, an SSD is without question worth it
Juan Stewart
My punishment box for the piece of shit nephew I have that keeps downloading viruses onto my workstation whenever he comes over pcpartpicker.com/list/qzzqm8 How can I make it worse and get away with it?
Jaxson Price
Soundcards are dumb, and fucking $170 for 16gb 2800mhz ram is dumb too. Get 2x8gb 3000mhz ram for $80
Daniel Hall
Sorry for that late response user, I only game. So I guess stick to the 6600k, instead of the 6700k Should I upgrade the psu as well? I've had the 650 corsair psu for about 3 years now. My GPU is a fury X
ok, I made some recommended changes and now the price is $100+ lower which is p nice
what else should I do? I have fan autism so I need something quiet. would the 212 evo still be ok? or stick with this noctua one?
Christopher Nelson
>le
Austin Bailey
Thanks so far.
I do care about saving money, but i also care about quality and reliability. I made some mistakes with my current pc, like stock cooler, shit psu, shit case because i was on a tight budget 6 years ago. I won't do the same mistake twice, but if you have reasonable suggestions, please go on. >HSF Such as? Should be silent, performant and don't have the weight of the typical tumblr user. >Mobo The Asus is already one of the cheaper option. The only real Z170 alternatives would be the MSI Z170A PC Mate and the ASRock Z170 Pro4, but the price difference is marginal. >Case Such as? I selected this one because it's fairly priced and has everything i need, as i mentioned, i won't make the same mistake twice. >RAM This is already very cheap (cheapest one is 71€, crucial is 76€) and i need 16GB for work.

Well it looks okay, im not familiar with the Fury. Is it the reference Fury? I seen good review about the Nitro Fury.

My CPU: AMD Athlon II X4 640 3.00 GHz
My motherboard: Gigabyte Technology Co. Ltd. M68MT-D3P (Socket M2)
If the guy who was planning to dual-SLI 1070 in a new fresh build is reading I hope you gave up on this shitty idea and got a single 1070 or a 1080.
Cooper Davis

Radeon R7 250 2GB?

I see. Im not much of an expert on coolers so I dont really know.
But yeah, thats the nitro one.
Kevin Hughes
-- Intel i7 4770 (w/ stock cooler [I know...] not overclocked) -- ASUS z87k motherboard -- ASUS gtx 670 (my 760 started dying on me a few weeks ago) -- Intel 1tb HDD -- Corsair hx760 PSU -- Corsair Vengeance LP ddr3 8gb RAM (x2) -- Corsair Carbide 300r case -- Corsair AF 140mm (x3) & 120mm (x1) case fans
I wanted to get an i7 6700k, but I learned I would also have to get a new mobo and ddr4 ram, which significantly runs up the cost.
Would it be better to keep using my old parts and get another Haswell-e cpu and upgrade the other lacking parts or go for the Skylake and 'future-proof' the rig for newer Adobe and Autodesk programs (Photoshop with 30+ hi-res layers and Unreal run like bricks on this build).

Adrian Ross
The Cryorig H7 is quieter and cooler than the 212 evo while only being $5-10 more.
Justin Miller
Are there any good motherboards with USB-C?
Austin Russell
Thank you for replying
Out of those cards, Which one is the best? Which one will last the longest?
Skylake is a decent chip but coming from your haswell setup, not worth the cost. With your board/chipset, you're pretty much locked in as to what stuff you can upgrade. You have to ask yourself this. What are you doing with this PC? Just gaming? Video editing? Architectural rendering? If not, an E series CPU and setup won't benefit you. If you do have need of more cores, then grab an X99/i7-6800k (6c12t) over a z170/97-6700k(4c8t). Going from your 4770 to 6770k isn't really worth the cost.
Lincoln Bell
a shit load of boards offer USB-C now. Only like 1 or 2 ports of course as USB-C still isn't standard. I think even the antiquated 990FX chipset for AMD has some recent boards out now with USB-3.1/C.
Just go on Newegg, look for your desired chipset, set price range, and find one.
Leo Sanders
GT 730 and R7 250 looks about the same. GT 710 is more like a competitor to a R7 240
I would go R7 250
Jack Cooper
if all you're doing is watching 1080p and browsing, the GT710 is your best option. So long as the card is passively cooled and not some garbage 40mm fan model as they're extremely loud, and the fan is another point of failure for the card. Pic related. They even have the audacity of charging an additional $5 for the worse heatsink and shit fan. If your case has even a single low RPM fan on it, the 710 will barely reach 60C even when doing a lot.
He says he is only web browsing and streaming 1080p video. Not gaming. Why give him a card with cooling fans if he is going for longevity? Just something else that will start to grind and stop working after 2 years when the bearings in the fan die. More performance is irrelevant if the user isn't gaming. Passive cooler nvidia card would be the way to go. I'd say the r5 240/230 if they made half way decent passive models.
Jack Roberts
I forgot about the gaming. 730 and 250 1gb were pretty close in price so I jumped on the 250.
Kevin Gutierrez
Hey man, thanks for replying Are you 100% that this card will last many years, and will be able to handle browsing and 1080p YouTube videos? I really don't wanna buy a new card every year Additional power is always good, as long as I don't have to compromise on the card's longevity
Whats your choice bro?
Thanks guys for the replies
Michael Mitchell
I've decided I'm going to buy an RX 480.
However, I have an AMD FX-6300 CPU clocked at 3.5Ghz. Will this be a problem? Is my CPU too "low-tier" or something like that? Will it work well alongside this GPU? I ask because the CPU cost me $120 in 2012 (now sells for $90), and the GPU is $200-300.
Evan Sanchez
GT710 like he said looks good.
Angel Robinson
What is your motherboard? Post pic/link? What's your cooler like? The FX-6300 isn't the greatest in regards to single core performance (what matters for many games). You have to make up for this with overclocking. The RX480 is essentially a lower wattage r9 390 in regards to gaming performance and while you won't be bottlenecking TOO hard, there will be some reduced performance because of the lack of CPU.
Brayden Reed

Kayden Cox
Are you sure It'd really handle the browsing and 1080p vids for many years? 40$ for that sounds too good for me lol
If you say yes then I'll probably go for it.. So please consider it
(I'm no expert and I dont wanna throw money away and be disappointed, sorry for all those questions bro)
I'll probably have some bottleneck but it wont make anything unplayable i believe.
Time to get an i5, pajeet.
Joseph Butler
yup yup, you can even get an app on your phone that you can sent torrents too and it will start the downloads on the NAS. Theres a pile of apps for it although I barely use any of it aside from the VPN server and downloader for torrents. If you wana know how I am doing it I have a nonfree VPN that I connect to and route all the traffic for torrents through it on the first NIC port and the other port goes to my computer.
What if your fans have no build? Come on man, no fans are quieter than having fans.
Isaiah Powell
>Are you 100% that this card will last many years, and will be able to handle browsing and 1080p YouTube videos?
Yes undoubtedly. I paid $15 brand new for a Geforce 210 way back as a display card for the exact same thing you want out of a card. It lasted me in my backup PC for 3 years, and is currently in my little Sister's PC pushing 2 monitors. Well over 5 years of service now with no issues. Also runs cool.
>Additional power is always good, as long as I don't have to compromise on the card's longevity Problem is the r7 250 is more power hungry as well. Which necessitates a cooler with a fan. Which provides another point of failure.
So long as you dust out your PC every once in a while so the card can breathe, the GT710 should do you fine.
Gabriel Lopez
Here are my specs. I posted them earlier for advice, and /pcbg/ was the reason I decided to go with the RX480. Note: That 8GB of Ram will now be 16.
>that video Holy shit, never thought someone would make a video for exactly what I wanted and a cheap-ish CPU. Cool, though. And nah, I wanna stick with AMD.
Owen Hill
not that user but yes. Pic related is the ancient GT210 in my little sister's PC. It powers 1080p no problems. Even bargain bin Intel Celeron/Pentium integrated graphics can drive 1080p. The GT710 should have no problem at all.
Connor Lewis
My 5 year old low-mid end Amd has no problem with 1440p, the 710 should be good.
James Robinson
It seems like the R9 Fury is a median between the RX480/1060 and the 1070.
But, the R9 Fury is based on the old architecture. I feel guilty buying old architecture. Is there a rational reason not to buy old architecture? Less driver support? Less OC potential? Higher temps?
Jonathan Adams
Is pic related your motherboard? (They also made a revision with it in black). If so, look up guides for overclocking piledriver. (Fairly straight forward. I had an FX-6300 @ 5.0ghz and my FX-9370 @ 5.5ghz both under custom liquid.)
Your motherboard was important because AMD requires a beefy voltage regulation section and decent northbridge cooling so the board doesn't throw up on itself. Even garbage binned FX-6300's can usually hit 4.4ghz @ 1.4v. Absolute max voltage is 1.55v for AMD and that's assuming you have 100% locked Load line calibration. I popped 2 Asus 990FX sabertooth motherboards pushing for 5.7ghz on my FX-9370. 1.7v+ for too long is bad.
Benjamin Torres
Go ahead, get it then I will obviously not guarantee those +120fps like those overclocked i7 6700k but the modern games 50-80fps are obviously playable.
Daniel Cook
and to add onto , what cooler/Power supply do you have? Those are VERY important. I'd recommend a Hyper 212 EVO type cooler as the minimum for any decent OC. And if your PSU isn't at least bronze rated and 500w (minimum), I don't recommend OCing at all.
Nathan Hughes
I dont know, but I would just save for a 1070 just to be sure.
Henry Robinson
Thank you guys So that's it, I'm going for it Last final question: Does Windows 10 supports the GT 710? I don't know how to check those things, I'm sorry for having so many questions lol
Jayden Sullivan
No problemo
Here are the win10 drivers for the Gt710 Just download it when you get it
Scroll down to 1070. Good nvidia gpus are MSI/EVGA/Gigabyte
Im not certain. The link is just to be sure.
Cooper Nguyen
OK, thanks a lot man, you really helped me!
Hunter Martinez
Yes, it's my mobo. It's not the black one, it's pic related. I think it's revision 3, the latest one. But I'm not sure.
>look up guides for overclocking piledriver. (Fairly straight forward. I had an FX-6300 @ 5.0ghz) Cool, I'll try this out.
My PSU is CORSAIR HX750 750W 80+Gold. The cooler is some Zalman-brand one that is pretty eh. I know the Hyper 212 EVO is the best, however, I wasn't a fan of the way to install it (with the backplates and stuff). I wanted one I could placed right on top of the CPU.
Your thoughts? Thanks very much.
>+120fps Nah, don't need that. 60 is fine.
Zachary James
Well cases are largely a personal preference. I'm just pointing out a Full Tower isn't really needed unless you're running stuff like RAID or Watercooling. You can fit most dogs inside a friggin full tower. A mid tower would take up less room, be cheaper and still probably fit everything you want. Like a Rosewill R5 Just make sure your case is big enough for your HSF.
In regards to HSF, most are silent. But if silence is a priority, you picked the right brand. A heatsink fan is only really important if you're going to overclock your CPU. If you're not going to OC then you might as well buy a GA-H110M-A MOBO as it's only $50. But if you do wanna OC and possibly run SLI in the future, you can still buy a GA-H170-Gaming 3 or B150M Mortar both around $85. That should be even less in Euros, if you can find a seller for that price.
Be careful using an miniITX board though, it makes building a bit harder. I'd be interested to hear what work you do that needs 16gb of ram. Maybe CAD? You can run basic work and windows 10 on a fucking toaster.

Hey guys, anyone have a good link for a pirated windows?
Logan Davis
Ok your motherboard should hold up for a half way decent OC. Your Power supply is good as well. Zalman coolers while ugly are actually OK depending on the cooler. Just find your thermal ceiling of what your cooler can handle. Use a program like Prime95 blend test to see how hot your CPU gets at stock. If you're even approaching 60C at stock, the cooler isn't up to the task.
Other than that, you'll be good to go. If you're buying the RX480, save a little more and grab a good cooler in the $50 range. I still have the same giant chunk of aluminum cooler I bought 5 years ago for $90. Money spent on a good cooler is money well spent.
Getting Roswill cases is bad in EU. An option would be the Fractal Design R5, similar price, but midi. I picked a Z170 mobo because future OC and the recommendation from the wiki, i won't use SLI though. Not CAD, but VM's and other shit in general and since RAM isn't that pricey anymore, why not? I' currently on my laptop and i'm using 7506/8109MiB RAM.
Jaxson Rogers
Cool man, thanks a lot for your help. What cooler do you have? I honestly haven't dusted off the inside of my Rig since January, so it's probably struggling. I was playing WoW earlier and my CPU was at 80C and GPU at 90.
Right now I have Chrome open with about 10 tabs, one of them streaming a video on YouTube. The CPU is at 37C. It was at 55 a second ago when I opened up Speccy though, haha.

Currently have pic related sitting on my 6700k because it's easier to access the RAM slots and pcie locking mechanism. Thermaltake Frio140 Silent. $40, performs a little better than the Hyper 212 EVO, and the heatsink is thinner.
Nicholas Jones
and this is my cooler I retired after 5 years of faithful service. I didn't like the way the fans mounted because the clips would rattle a bit. This is the cooler that held my FX-9370 @ 4.8ghz after I ditched my liquid setup. Thermaltake Frio Extreme.
Dominic Gray
Thanks, and thanks again your your replies user! Really appreciate it man. I'm watching a video on how to OC my FX6300. Sounds pretty simple so far.
Aaron Peterson
not a problem. Basic rules of thumb. No more than 1.55v EVER. No more than 62C at an absolute max for 100% load temps. Done and done. Enjoy.
