Anyone telling you to get the 7700k outside of 144hz gaming builds is most likely very retarded
Joshua Martinez
How will the threadripper do for gaming? Most likely the same as the 1800x right?
Robert Hughes
and anyone telling you to cap your fps at 60 for the ryzen is retarded
Matthew Lee
First for fuck off with your 7700k shilling
Jack Rogers
Threadripper isn't for gaming just like Quandro isn't for gaming
Logan Myers
Lower, they'll most likely be lower clocked. But the difference in FPS between the 1700 and 1800x isn't that big so you should expect slightly better performances than the 1700

Adam Martin
Whats a good cpu to get for this build
Michael Morgan
7820x hands down
Jaxon Moore
The 7700k is at 5GHz and delidded. It's also more expensive and need both a better cooler and motherboard. That's not a win by any way.
what the fuck are you on about you idiot? it's the same OP
Jack Wilson
for dual monitors, do you turn off one when gaming/watching shows? my autism loses immersion if i have a Sup Forums thread tab open right when im gaming
Christopher Foster
Well then delid your rayzen and OC it to 5gHz too
oh wait
Wyatt Diaz
nice samefag
Camden Richardson
second monitor will lower fps so yes
Elijah Sullivan
What kind of cpu should i get for a home office pc
Charles Flores
>deliding is good
David Hill
As if that other retard with his pcpartpicker's own account link wasn't already annoying by hijacking the OP, now we got a second retard that shits up the thread even though it has the same OP as the one he wants to create I was hesitant to go see the mods about the first retard but i guess i'll have to go on the IRC to get this one retard banned
Answer the question, it's the same OP

People have delidded Ryzen. Delidding it doesn't provide much better cooling. It's good for maybe 1 degree celsius and .1 Ghz more of an overclock. Not worth it. youtube.com/watch?v=wz_-Q5QzRqg
You're not hitting 5+ GHz on Ryzen without liquid nitrogen cooling (which reminds me, the Ryzen 5 1600 set 6 core overclocking records on Liquid nitrogen at 5.9 Ghz

...
Liam Lopez
Cause Ryzen doesn't have a iGPU and he has no GPU? That seem really clear
Jackson Nguyen
because GPU prices are insane and Ryzen doesn't have an iGPU
Lucas Brooks
ill sell you my fury and/or rx470 for a fair price.
Mason James
You can buy some second hand GPU like 560ti for 20 bucks for the time being
Jaxon Ross
not in my area. computer parts wasteland here on the east coast what would you consider fair? The 470 is essentially a slightly worse version of the RX570 I want.
Jason Hill
i got the 470 for 150 new. ill take 120 for it. asus strix 4gb. all i use it for is 4k60 video playback.
William Murphy
Oh boo hoo i have to spend 20$ more on the gpu mommy i will instead keep the rest of my components sitting for months having thereby wasted tons of money because I've already paid but can't use them for whoknows how long and by the time I will be able to their market value will be 30-40% lower t.retard
John Johnson
wait untill the mining crysis goes away. either AMD re-stocks or Vega comes out. Also there were rummors of a Radeon card made specificlly for Cryptocurrency mining. which will potentially draw all attention away from consumer cards.
I have a RX570 Nitro + and it's worth every penny (at $215)
Adrian Carter
The retard is the moron that didn't figure out why he wasn't using his Ryzen. Don't get butthurt that we pointed it out moron.
Noah Jackson
Very tempting. Lemme think about it
>Oh boo hoo i have to spend 20$ more on the gpu >$20 I fucking wish. Go on Newegg. Cards similar to what I want are now going for over $600. Fucking miners.
Jonathan Scott
Best CPU for taking back the crypto currency market from the jews?
Juan Sanders
Intel. Make sure it's the most expensive version. Jews gotta eat too.
Austin Morris
How are you supposed to fit the CPU power pins on a Z270E? They've literally placed them at the most unreachable point on the entire board. Only way to insert them is with tiny hands or remove the fucking CPU cooler
Kevin Bennett
No they don't.
They survived on old, moldy rations in Auschwitz.
Jews don't need to eat. Jews aren't human.
Jason Barnes
No spastic, I knew exactly why he wasn't already, but wanted to point out his retardation for all to see.
Angel Brown
>Also there were rummors of a Radeon card made specificlly for Cryptocurrency mining That is stupid. Mainly cause that opens you to wasting money instead of getting ASIC. And PoS > PoW and coins are trying to move away from PoW.

Im currently using an i5 6500 Should I switch to ryzen?
Brayden Wood
Sadly all you did was point out your own retardation.

>legitimately wondering if a good idea is a good idea
Jaxson Campbell
No. Are you getting bottlenecked by your CPU? I doubt so.
Jacob Lee
Not worth it at the moment. Wait another year or so. In that case, it MIGHT be worth it. For average people on something that new, it isn't worth it, but considering your use, totally worth it.
Gabriel Price
i want to GPU passthrough (arch + wangblows) my build currently has a i5-7600K, so i can use the iGPU for linux should i keep it that way, or is getting ryzen + some crappy GPU cheaper?
What the fuck happened that made all the GTX 1060s dissapear from my country's biggest shops?
Julian Edwards
What is the best is dependent on what you need.
Jeremiah Brooks
youd need at least $700 for a 1060 build
Gavin Lewis
I have made a functioning and pretty good 1060 build that came out to $589
Try again
Jaxon Wright
It's not just AMD cars that are affected. nvidia cards are also being affected. Everything short of a 1080 has a price hike and limited supply
Jace Bennett
Since AyyyMD is out of stock. Nvidia is the only option, so people desperate to hop on the mining craze buy Nvidia and everyone else buys Nvidia. Especially since Ryzen has no iGPU forcing everyone to buy a card with their new build
Ayden Foster
bitch, this guy has a 1070 and doesn't even reach $600
Anthony Morales
150$ for a 2500k+mobo+8gb ram 270$ for 1060 6gb Hopefully he got psu,ssd and case already
Anthony Mitchell
Get a PNY ssd and a better psu. If you don't want to wait for the mining craze to end, get a rx560 or 1050ti.
Samuel Diaz
Cause if you actually bother to fucking look at that list, the 1070 has no price. Because it is out of stock. So it is 600 + the price of 1070.
Adam Edwards
Yea but you can find 1060s and 1070s with a 20$ price hike so again, just autism and utter retardation
Buying hundreds of $ worth of components @ t1 and letting them rot till t2 is a massive financial loss
What power supply is flat and small enough for the Define Nano S to have enough space for a Asus Rog Strix 1080ti to breathe? Video related: youtube.com/watch?v=wiDZNT7mxLQ
And finally; What cooler should I get? As you can probably tell by now I'm completely lost and in need of your guidance anons. I don't know if watercooling fans need a lot of maintenance or switching out the fluids every X time and like the video above states, maybe a blower fan would be better.
Please help me kind anons, I feel like my dream build is right around the corner.
Joshua Edwards
maybe if you can seel that i5 with the mobo for a decent price, jump to Ryzen (and get the R7 1700)
Start from the begining. post the pcpartpicker and we will move ahead from there.
Julian Martin
i made a super budgeted build and while making it i followed what i have seen you guys lay down
>zrzut ekranu :) >unlocked cpu >locked motherboard this build looks all over the place. You can save some money on cpu or if it doesn't matter just go 7700k and some z270 motherboard.
You did that all wrong, the price doubled because I had to fix every one of your mistakes, you should try making a new list with not as-good parts if you can't afford this list: pcpartpicker.com/list/mDr2wV
Kevin Gomez
I fucked up a motherboard 1151 again
Jackson Thompson
why is it that when parts are compatible, the list still isn't good enough because "brands" or "it doesn't match"
Cameron Lopez

>6700k reaches 75-80c when running games
is speccy shit or did i somehow badly fuck something up or get a faulty cpu
Nolan Gray
Im going to switch to ryzen 7, Can I overclock an 1700x well with a b350 or do i have to get an x370? I have a cm 240 pro already so cooling isnt a problem.
Caleb Collins
u need to delid it bro
Caleb Murphy
b350 vs x370 offers no significant difference in OC potential afaik
Oliver Morris
when exactly is the time to buy?
Jacob Thompson
Some guy is selling his week old 1700 for 240€ shipped is it a good buy
William Allen
How's the sapphire rx580 4gb for 270 euro dollars boys, y/n? out of stock obviously but I'll just wait longer using it alongside r5 1600 cpu for gaymen in 1080p @ 60hz, though I'm thinking of moving up to 144hz
