me: *wants to build a pc*
also me: *has a -528185389391861004 iq*
Do you guys think that this motherboard could run a Rx 5700 xt??
I am new here. I am saving up for my very own PC too. I think this build is in my price range of 800or so plus tax.
Can this motherboard run a ryzen 5 3600?
So I was about to buy the parts but I wondered what moniker should I get can someone help?
What a tech youtuber who pays taxes? I’ve never heard of such a thing.
Rx 5600xt
A Phillips screw driver and an anti static band? But but but….shouldn’t we use a Swiss Army knife that Hopefully has a Phillips screwdriver and a Livestrong band?
can you do a 500$ build
You deserve more subs tbh
If you replace the ssd with just a hard drive you could upgrade the cpu to ryzen 3600 and save over 100 dollars
Isn’t the 1660 a bit outdated?
Why not spend a bit more and get an rtx card for future-proofing?
You still get the Turing architecture but you get all the rtx stuff and the new Nvidia software.
Otherwise buy a 1080ti
I can get a Ryzen5 3600 + Gen 4 motherboard & 3000mhz 16gb RAM for $300 on Amazon.
Much better than what you’re installing for $750
Great video! Would you suggest upgrading the gpu to gtx 2070 ti? Or would I have to upgrade the cpu as well for that? Thx
Ryzen 5 1600 is out of stock 😩
YouTube recommendations worked for this one. Most of the parts you’ve used in this build I’m planning on buying for my build. Subscribed 👍
With that budget it can go with Ryzen 5 3600?
I don’t think the power supply is modular
Can I use a gtx 1660ti instead?
Which is better r5 3500 vs r5 1600af
Really awesome,
And can you suggest me
which monitor is best for gaming??
1080p or 1440p for desktop gaming? I mean on a 23" monitor will 1080p not look silly?
Rtx 2060 is literally 300$
So that one fan that he had to switch out is required but not included?
Some of the pricing like the 12nm Ryzen 5 1600 hasn’t been $85 for some time now. They are averaging $130-$150
I love how you are filling in the gaps between the other builds you have posted. It really helps people out with all the different budget levels. Also, still good power for the price too.
I feel like you could have got a 2060 in there for that price, especially with the 1600af.
Just built this last week, I got the Aorus gaming MB for $10 more but even it’s still a POS. doesn’t let me past 3133mhz on the ram, might get a bit higher, w/timing right but gigabyte says that 3133 is the limit. (work in progress)I have way faster ram than called for so that’s part of the issue.) sorta lets me OC, now at 4ghz but power adjustment sucks badly, can’t go higher than 1.4v even though it’s never even made it to 70c (STRESSED) on temps. M.2 is great, my 1tb, 3400r/3000w is unbelievably fast and will run faster than stated. RGB is cool, never thought I could use a desktop as a christmas tree. would really like to see what the 1600af can really do. guess I’ll have to wait for a different MB. have a rtx 2060 ko ultra on the way but the gtx 1060 6gb jumped over 700 points on Heaven from my old 4ghz quad core. overall, extremely happy with it and would recommend to anyone. I’ll be waiting on the new 550 chip MB, when they come out.
Could you test fortnite ?
does that motherboard support the fans in front meaning does it have the right ports?
Im going to build this pc but the case is sold OUT😔 is there any alternative cases? Plus im a pc noob so i dont know if any case works for this build pls help
Do you think this build will be able to perform well at Cyberpunk 2077?
Hey guys I was wondering if a EVGA RTX 2060 Ko would be good with this or a i5 9400F
Seems like the case is some out. Can you recommend any other case for this build?
5600 xt is better
First time viewer hmm 🤔 i like it
OS should never be included in the costs of a PC build, because you’re not getting the best out of the money. Especially because you get windows keys for $10, so deducting $100 is completely unnecessary. And you don’t need a valid windows key for gaming.
Can you do streaming with gaming?
Would I be able to substitute the CPU with an AMD Ryzen 2600 instead? I’m using this as my first build
I ordered these parts (almost) on the 25th, came across this build to see the FPS I’ll be getting
can you make a 2020 edition of installing Windows 10?
I love your videos bro. Sadly, I can’t afford a gaming pc. 😭 I want one so bad.
but…can it run Minecraft?
Hey guys, this may be a really dumb question but I’m 100% new to PCs and thinking of doing a build like this one if not this one exactly. I bought a monitor recently to play with my consoles, and my monitor supports Freesync. ASUS VG249Q. Will this build work with Freesync? Is is even that important? Trying to do research but it’s all a bit overwhelming. Like I said total noob so any help is appreciated 🙂
Where can you buy that anti static mat from?
Can you play vr on this?
I have like a 130 ish usd budget for a graphics card in a optiplex set up, any recommendations for which card to buy?
My current build is a
Dell optiplex with a i5 core
8GB if ram (2 four GB sticks)
650Watt power supply
500GB hard drive
Currenty using a very budget 2200G build and I plan on upgrading to a 1600 AF + 1660 Super on my birthday (when I turn 16 funnily enough)
Thank you for providing benchmarks for this build! Would be helpful if you added in GPU and CPU temperatures as well
Well realistically, me living in Australia it is SO much more coming in at 1300… I’m just too poor and don’t have the money for a budget build because this is probably as low as you can get. 🙁
AMD Ryzen 5 1600 – 8GB Memory – AMD Radeon RX 550 – 240GB SSD Is This build good to run 144hz Low settings in Fortnite? Please help
im glad this popped out of my recommendation list. Here is a sub to you brother 👍
