I dont mind the 8gb vram for the nvidia cards. The dlss you get from it is definetly worth it
Would my 4060 rtx , i9 intel processor, 64gb of ram run what i wnat it to and 2tb running storage ?
What’s the best website to buy the parts for?
Pretty sure a B series board for AMD will be fine for a Ryzen 7
Where can you see if all of your parts arr going to work well togheter
Should I get the 9800x3d for the extra 200 or go for the 9700x ? Going to be pairing it with the msi mag x870e with the new 9070xt
Any good white GPU a decent price?
Can you build one for 600 max?
buy Intel !!!!!!!
Bro u are bum. U didn’t explain sh1t on how avoid bottlenecking. Clickbait. Zero knowledge
Bro 5000mb writing speed is more then enough
I ended up going with SlayStation PC and got a custom pink build for a great price, so happy with it 😻
if you looking at a intel based system would you still look at a 1700 socket based system (14600kf) or push into a 1851 even it it means currently having a CPU Ultra 5 245KF with the view the CPU could be replaced in the future
Hello, love your videos, and the fact that you don’t push people to buy your builds.
Need your suggestion. My Win 10 PC that I built 15 yrs ago has seen better days, so I’m planning to build a new one (transferring the Win 10 to an internal SSD and buying the $30 extended support that Microsoft is offering, as I’m not yet ready to switch to Win 11). I’m NOT a gamer, so no need for a GPU. However, I do a lot of audio editing/mixing, watch movies, in addition to normal daily chores (email, Excel/Word/PP, work stuff, etc.), so I do want a solid, future-proof PC with an APU, 32-64gig RAM, 2 SSDs, 750w+ PSU, and perhaps a full ATX case (w/the smallest footprint available). Looking at Ryzen 7 8700-G. Budget is $600-$800. Any suggestions on related parts to pick for this entire build? Can I repurpose any of the components from my current PC? I can post the components list if you need.
Also, is it worth splurging extra toward a mobo with 6-8 RAM slots for future upgrade? Would appreciate your advice. Thanks.
What is the opinion about an 9600x combined with an 7800XT ? for mid 1440p
just ordered and will build a pc for a very good friend , 7500f , 32gb ram at 6000hz cl30 , b650m mobo , 750W psu , rx 7800xt , 2tb m.2 , nice case with 4 fans , all for 1200 euro considering that parts are more expansive in EU . it’s for 1080p overkill gaming at high refresh rate with an easy future upgrade to the CPU . The request from him was a future proof build for 1080p .
so i’m in Finland and if i get a rx 7900 gre and a 7600 x for 750$, the rest of the build will be about 1500$?
Me watching this after I just bought all my pc parts 💀
Can you make a video for 2000 budget for a 1440p PC?
This video is hard to watch. It’s like when you have a college degree and are forced to attend a preschool class. I was hoping for some actual info, but instead I got opinion and bad one at that for anyone who knows what they’re doing building PC. At least discuss which manufacturer makes better graphics cards and motherboards (i.e. Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, etc.) or how to read the power stages on mobos instead of being an ignorant dumbass when buying one. This video is a joke.
Such a relaxing video.
Whats a good processer and gpu combo i should get
Conputer
12:20 What case is this?
well, i just build my PC week ago. This video is too late for me 🥲🥲i would have take AMD CPU if i watched this video
I have an i5 12600 cpu with a 4070 super, would i benefit upgrading the cpu ? I have 64 gig 3200 ddr4 memory 2tb 990 pro Nvme, plus two 1tb 980 pro nvme’s. Mugen 5 air cooler. Mobo is Gigabyte Z690 aorus elite ddr4 . Case Corsair 5000D. with 6 120mm fans.
hey i don’t fully understand what ur saying throughout the video could u just link some good parts please and thank u 🙂
Idk what thunderbolt is yet but I’m looking for it 😂
do you have a build recommendation for playing dead by daylight and fortnite and streaming at the same time? I’m trying to find one for my niece cause she loves to play games like that and she also wants to stream it for her cousins that like to watch her play games. but it’s all so confusing. so many different motherboards and parts. I can put together a computer easily if I have the parts. but I can’t figure out what parts to get. especially at $1400 budget…
how bad does bus width affect gaming? i bought an amd 6650xt but just found out it only usesx8 instead of x16… does it matter?
Been planning an ITX build, but not sure what psu I should go with for about 750-850w, any recommendations?
How is the bottleneck with AMD CPU and GPU combo couse am thinking I will go with that for my first (ever ) pc
I was thinking of getting in B850 motherboard, with a ryzen 5 7600 and a radeom 7800xt. The idea is to upgrade to a 9 or higher cpu in the future, somewhere in like 4-6 years. Would you say its better to invest more into a x670 motherboard?
guys can u help me out i have abt £500-£550 budget but i just have no idea what parts to use so if anyone can help me or recommend me parts to use i would be rlly grateful and btw i kinda want a pc thats white
So what cpu should i get for animation, video creation illustration etc, cus i need it to run all adobe apps + good graphics + aditional drawing stuff + LOTS AND I MEAN A LOT OF STORAGE and idk shit ab computers, and i also want to be able to play videogames
What did you use to check speeds while gaming?
what’s the best site to buy your parts ?
I run a i5-12400F and a 9070 XT, cpu at 30-50% and gpu max load
Is it okay to have 36 latency for memory?
do you need both long term and short term storage cause i am confused rn
Este video me trae un alivio muy grande ya que llevo unas 2 semanas viendo muchos videos de Paul’s Hardware, KitGuruTech, y ahora tus videos y me alegra ver muchos de los componentes que llamaron mi atención para una pc de unos 1500$ como maximo tanto acá como en las builds completas que venden ustedes en la pagina web por ejemplo con el CPU Ryzen 9600x y las GPU Rtx 5060ti 16gb – RX 9060 xt 16gb. Lamentablemente se me hace muy dificil y excesivamente COSTOSO traer algunas cosas más pesadas o de gran volumen a mi país así que será una labor un poco más exhaustiva en cuanto a marcas poco conocidas con cosas como el Case.
Thanks for clear my mind about all this stuff and greetings from Venezuela ♥.
Can you make a video showing us how it runs please
i can finally play all my beloved source games
What’s that game with the FBI.?
Got myself new 5 7600 CPU for 170 and 7800XT GPU for 450, lucky.
how much money if i got the best parts + mic headphons and mondrs key brod and mose
What’s the difference between different GPU brands? Are one cooler and slightly than the other?
Disgusting on Nvidia recommendation. I’ll pick the card that is finished and doesn’t have a risk of fire, thanks.
Ima buy 9950x3d and Rx 9070xt and pray that I will get 30 fps in modded arma 3
is ar5 7600x with rx 7800xt a good combo for 1440p(i also want to take 1440p monitor)
