Post your component list, rate other anons', ask questions in general.
Always state the purpose of your PC, your budget, AND YOUR COUNTRY if outside the USA. If you are asking for improvements, clarify whether you want to lower price or to improve specs or build quality.

Whats a good Skylake/DDR4 motherboard around $100-$125 right now thats good for OCing a G4400 to 4.4Ghz and a i3 6100 to 4.8Ghz later on down the line? Looking to buy one in the next few hours. Help me out /pcbg/
Owen Morgan
Gigabyte GA-Z170 HD3P (or what it's called) there are like three versions of this mobo.
David Fisher
Oh boy, what's the best version for OCing?
Mason Taylor
r8 don't h8
Angel Morales
Shouldn't really matter, i think they have the same VRM.
Lincoln Ross
I'm not finding a lot of good reviews for this mobo. Oh boy. At most I'm seeing 3 1/2 stars.
Caleb Williams
See if you can get cheaper RAM, cheaper case and a AC Wifi adapter.
$45 with a 480w PSU I like that one for the price and looks but I'm really afraid about the PSU being very cheap. All the reviews say they replaced it and a moderator on the site said the actual power was like 280w. My build only needs 230w but I'm not very sure.
Then again, it would save me like $40
s-should I?
Gavin Wood
Without thinking about a budget, which is the best company to by a 1080 from?
Jace Hernandez
Isn't there a gaming 1080 that reaches almost like 2000mhz
James Russell
Officially no, if you have to ask this stupid question i suggest you don't OC or get a prebuilt that already is OCd.
Jose Morgan
Well I know that, I'd need to get a custom firmware or something like that to do that but I just wanna know if it's possible. I can always look up a tutorial later.
Might be a good idea to also compare in other sites like game-debate and cpu.userbenchmark to see which version has a higher score
Samuel Richardson
>I'm really afraid about the PSU being very cheap PSU will be cheapest chink shit available. Also no idea how good the case is, if you want a good and cheap case for a red meme theme: pcpartpicker.com/product/sYgPxr/deepcool-case-tesseractswred
Bentley Scott
that one's unavailable. The case itself is good, the PSU is in fact confirmed cheap chink TM according to reviews of other logysis cases. In the end, its dirt cheap and this is my first build. fuck it, I'll go full chink, hope I don't regret it.
Chase Collins
Are there any cables I need to buy separately or will they all come with their respective parts?
Samuel Phillips
Thanks for the help user, all these different brands and names sometimes gets overwhelming. Hopefully I can pick one that isn't an angry red and black eyesore.
Jacob Myers
I posted a few days ago with an old lga1155 I had in my attic I wanted to set up as a guest pc. Well I ebay'd, craigs'd, and local'd up some components and I have this so far
am3+ mobo so you can upgrade to a dirt cheap octa later, you can xfire another 460 when they are sub $50 used and have a decent poorfag machine. I would get a used 1155/1150 setup before I'd buy existing AMD though.
Budget is #1 priority for me. I don't really plan on upgrading CPU desu. If I ever upgrade I guess I'll just shell out for another mobo all together.
About the 460, it used to be on my list but for $3 more, I would rather 1050 which scores significantly better. And getting anything higher than 1050 is useless since the CPU would be a bottleneck anyway.
This is the final build, I'll be using 2 old 1TB + 750GB HDD's. I regret not ordering some $20 SSD last night ;_;
Jaxon Parker
get a cheap ass case and go dual channel memory. single channel will just make that old cpu even worse
Samuel Cooper
>he forgot the text You retarded autist get worse at shitposting with every day that passes.
Joseph Morris
Are the other m.2 ssds worth it besides the 960 pro the plextor one is 80 bucks and seems to be a decent enough jump over SATA ssds anyways
Isaiah Gutierrez
...
Angel Sullivan
I read dual was pretty useless desu. Is it really better?
also >old cpu It came out like 2-3 months ago
Isaiah Brown
960 EVO is the same price as the Plextor and BTFO of it in every single metric.
Josiah Garcia
Show me where fampaisano
Ethan Sullivan
What size you looking at fampai? The 1TB are only $10 away from each other.
Oliver Green
user get a decent CPU pls, it's 2017 already. Invest in future upgrades boyo.
Nathaniel Rivera
>It came out like 2-3 months ago It's architecture could be registered as a historic building in some cities.
It's so old Betty White fucked it in high school
It prob tells dad jokes, do not want.
Angel Gutierrez
>t's architecture could be registered as a historic building in some cities. Dumb nigga, Excavator came out LAST year.
Logan Sullivan
I've been using cheap refurbished laptops since 2007. This is a real overhaul for me. Look at my current shit. ;_; rude desu
Austin Butler
I feel sorry for that guy now, I just wanna go over and build his pc for him
Jaxon Gutierrez
What's the max safe voltage for Skylake overclocks?
Jordan Anderson
Varies, but go no higher than 1.35V on VCore if possible
Sebastian Gray
I'd rather go with corsair or sharkoon cases
Justin Peterson
Is the unlocked i3 worth the money or would it be better to buy an ancient i5-6500 instead?
>and it's a minor improvement of the 22nm process Nigga u so dum It's a 28nm process and it's an overhaul of the Steamroller architecture that came before it, not a simple improvement.
Dylan Young
Where? I'm not quite autistic enough to identify a website from a mobile promo page.

Robert Clark
corsair is nice but again >muh budget hurts to be poor
Ian Nguyen
>>$300 Looks good. >>$400 Looks good, maybe X4 845K, cheaper RAM and 1050? >>$500 Good. >>$600 Why change RAM? No need for different PSU, too, SSD is meh but budget, so it's ok. GPU is bad, PNY1060 is better pcpartpicker.com/list/GT2Hpb >>$700 Better GPU and SSD, cheaper RAM. pcpartpicker.com/list/GR2Hpb >>$800 Difficult price spot imho. pcpartpicker.com/list/mqc2jc >>$900 Good but slightly improved. Also no idea why you keep on changing that RAM. pcpartpicker.com/list/pzBwD8 >>$1000 Bad CPU heavy games will be bottlenecked, 1080 also has shit price/performance and should only be considered if budget is no issue. >>$1100 Same as above, this is in general a bad idea.
I'll make 1000/1100 USD builds. Should also be noted that those are only valid fod US since PNY and Deepcool are often unavailable in EU.
Bentley Roberts
>why change RAM? because i wasn't paying attention. >I'll make 1000/1100 USD builds if you swap the 1080 out for the 1070, you could toss in a 250gb SSD and probably upgrade to 6600k + z170 >$600 gpu is bad BUT IT HAS THE JEW STAR INSTEAD OF A PENTAGRAM!!! it's also the cheapest 8gb 480
Gavin Reyes
Been wanting to upgrade RAM which means a new motherboard. should I get a new CPU at the same time or?
Adrian Cruz
save your money
Jayden White
Just get a second stick of 8gb
Dylan Lee
I need to upgrade my ESXi server. I have an old 6-core Xeon L5640, but it's getting taxed pretty hard now trying to manage four clients at once. Suggestions?
Caleb Torres
oh 28nm my bad, it's much more outdated and shitty than gave credit for. Single core is on par with a 4 year old celeron. For the anons gaming use a pentium g would be better. The gimped l2 cache amd gave the 845 so they could claim big improvements in their 7th gen Carrizo based APUs doesn't help either. Min frames will suffer.
John Hernandez
I don't think the mobo could handle another stick.
[spoiler]then again, last time I checked what it could handle was a couple years ago[/spoiler]
Blake Lewis
I've seen WD Blue posted here a lot, is that a good hard disk? Looking for something to install all my steam games on so I have access to them when offline. Was thinking about some HGST 2TB but they're expensive compared to the rest.
Henry Reyes
I just put a 1070 in my computer
It has an 8 slot thing to put it in and I have only a 6 slot what should i do anons
Andrew Jenkins
Is this any good?
Cameron Baker
If your PSU is modular, try to find the 8 pin vga cable. If it isn't, get a molex to 8 pin vga converter. DO NOT try to run it off 6 pin.
Jaxon Evans
>no 1080 ti >no vega this is bullshit what the fuck am i supposed to do now
Kevin Barnes
The only "good" WD Blue is the 1TB model, since it's the only 7200rpm version of the series (all of the other "Blues" are actually just rebranded Greens with 5900rpm platters). You'd need to pay 20% extra for similar 7200rpm Blacks, which is a rip off considering all of the other HDD manufacturers more or less have 7200rpm drives for their entire range.
Should do. Try pcpartpicker.com for compatibility stuff
Zachary Russell
Here's my current build for when I get back from college in a few months. Everything that's $0 is what I'm buying from Best Buy with a $450 gift card & I'm picking up the CPU and Motherboard from Microcenter. My only issue is whether there's anything worthwhile between an RX 480 and a 1070, like maybe a Fury or something. I'm reusing my current hard drive. So this build brings me to around $400, subtracting what I get for selling my 750ti after I rebuild my computer.
Hunter Peterson
Which mobo socket types are the most future proof? For both intel and amd CPU's
I am planning on an FM2+ build but I'm aware it's pretty much dead upgrade wise.
Cameron Gomez
Too late for that
1151
John White
Bestbuy pricematches from microcenter.
So, if you find cheap stuff on microcenter vs bestbuy, price match it.
Christian Williams
Have I fucked anything up so far?
Elijah Wilson
what about AMD's I read something about AM4 coming out or some shit
Robert Harris
AM4 mobo for AMD Ryzen
1151 for Intel Skylake/Kabylake
