>Omissions
RTX 5060 Ti: Both memory configs cost more than 9060 XT 16GB for the same performance and half the PCIe lanes. Only buy if you need cuda or value GeForce features that highly.
RTX 5070: buy if it's reasonably priced & if you plan to work around potential VRAM bottlenecks.
RTX 5070 Ti: buy if you need CUDA, if you value DLSS/Reflex that highly, and if the 5060 Ti 16GB or 5070 isn't performant enough.
RX 9070 non-XT: worth considering if it's significantly cheaper than the 9070 XT.
Intel 13 & 14th gen i7/9 -K CPUs: BIOS update required due to reliability issues. Recommended to set a CPU VR voltage limit (1.4 or 1.45V).

wtf bros nvidia said their adapter was meltproof

so done with these fucking melting issues on my 5090. i was in the middle of typing up a shitpost dunking on the AMDrones when my cable melted and whole pc caught on fire, I have to build a whole new pc. im suing nvidia and building an all amd pc with the settlement money fuck it idc anymore.

>never had an issue with AMD on my RX6650XT
>last 4 AMD drivers kept having some issue one or another in several games with the 9070XT
The hardware is a beast but after years of no issue at all last 3 months have been a bit annoying on AMD

>>106037517
my only real issue I've had so far was for some reason youtube videos when not fullscreened if i scrolled up and down would go black and white not a big deal so i just ignored it. finally bothered to update to the latest 25.6.3 driver and its gone now. been great for me so far.

>Q3 2025
What the fuck

>>106037670
AM4 will live forever.

>>106037670
is there more embarrassing "resource" than UB out there?

>>106035998
Lol they've been caught doing this multiple times

so he came out of his closet, now he thinks hes white for shilling intealviv
the fuck is his problem

>>106037841
huh? take your meds. this OP is community created and not one of the brand war ones.

any reccs for a mid-range gaming and workstation (vid editing) build?
im getting tripped up
so far it seems like 9950x with a 5060ti is the best I could do without going full broke
also what am5 motherboard do I need?

>>106037841
Without intel AMD will charge outrageous prices. I hope nova lake is good. Obviously I would never buy intel again due to them abandoning sockets every year but I hope it is good.

9950X3D is only $200 more than the 9800X3D, why wouldn't you just get that instead?

>>106038119
for mid range gaming something like 5070 is best value
vid editing you should get a mobo with lots of pcie5 lanes for nvmes, moving large files around
9950x3d would be best of both worlds for cpu workloads on gaming and productivity

>>106038119
That seems fine. Get a full sized atx mobo with good expansion and lots of sata for cold storage.

>>106038119
Step up to a 5070

>>106038119
depends on your storage needs mostly
i have strix b850f, its good because none of its m2 slots share bandwidth with the main pcie slot
unlike x870f/x870e for some reason

>>106038154
$200 more than $450 is 45% more money. Also a gpu that would stress a 9950x3d is $3000. For a 5070ti or 9070xt you aren't getting bottlenecked by even a 9600x at higher resolitions. Cpu bottleneck goes DOWN at higher resolutions so if you are at 4k- which you should be if you're even considering these for a build in 2025 it doesn't even matter. We're past the point of cpus mattering with the current gpus for normal consumers. You would be spending more money for no reason. You wouldn't even see a difference with a 5070ti between a 9800x3d and a 9950x3d in gaming unless you're playing counterstrike in 1080p and trying to get 600fps.

>>106038131
i talking about the pedonigger shitposting from the previous therad
anyway thats now what they said when intel was king, they were unironically happy paying the premum for 4/4 cores, dont forget a new socket per year

>>106038154
not everyone needs 16 cores, especially in gaming focused build

>>106038215
>>106038503
im assuming you mean 5070 (not Ti)
is the 12gb vram really not gonna choke itself compared to the 16gb of the 5060ti?

Lads recently at random my monitors will go black and my fans will start running at full speed until I restart my PC, what could it be.

>>106038548
from my understanding the dedicated usb4 takes away some lanes. Their solution to this is letting additional non chipset nvme slots share bandwidth with the GPU. My x870e has one primary PCIe 5.0 slot, two PCIe 5.0 slots that would share bandwidth with the GPU and two PCIe 4.0 slots that are connected via chipset.

>>106038595
your gpu is having trouble cooling itself
dust blocking fans maybe, poor thermal paste

>>106038593
Wait 5 months for the 18gb 5070s

>>106037777
Intel/nvidia benchmark is chill. Just don't read his words

>>106038595
are you the retarded catcuck that returned the 5070 and went back to the 3060?
maybe you should clean and repaste youre shit

>>106038595
the dgpu stopped responding, literally. if you had hybrid graphics it would fall back to igpu but you dont or have it disabled.

So what's with the paranoia about lane sharing from the PCIe slots.
Do people think PCIe 5.0 x8 isn't going to be enough or is it a feel good thing that your not "bottlenecking" your GPU irrespective if it is or not?

Always considered boards that could do something like 8x/8x on two PCIe slots to be a feature.

>>106038679
The x8 and lane sharing are seperate problems. For example my board has a 2nd full size pcie slot that shares lanes with my primary m.2 pcie slot. So I cannot use it and my m.2 slot at the same time because they share lanes. The 5060 x8 pcie issue is that the cards throughput on pcie 5 is fine but not pcie 3. So for poorfags (the only people who buy 60 class cards) that have an older mobo the 5060 is rendered completely worthless and worse than a 4060 or 3060ti because it cannot transfer date fast enough on x8.

>havent build a new pc in years
> comeback to /g/
> all the ew cards look like fucking bricks with how big the heatsinks are now
wtf happen? I can see duel chip gpus coming back soon

>>106038736
Intel lets partners do whatever the fuck they want so maxsun made a dual gpu card. You will never see it from nvidia because they treat partners like cucks.

>>106038593
>not gonna choke itself compared to the 16gb
As of right now it's not an issue at 1080p and 1440p, 4k you can count the games that will be actually problematic on one hand but it doesn't matter much because anything less than a 5090 (that will soon be replaced with a 6090) at that point is a waste of time
4 years from now who knows but even then I think you'd probably be better off with like 40%+ more performance. In my head canon the 12gb on the 5070 would be like an 8gb card in 2018.
>super card
Good luck getting one

>>106038736
gpu are chugging more power than ever, more heat is produced too, so cooling needs to keep up

>>106038779
how much is this monster going to be?

>>106038803
so much for power efficiency and die shrinks since the mid 2010s

>>106038779
>because they treat partners like cucks.
And rightfully so.
Intel had one stipulation for allowing anything and that's to support customers.
Vast majority of Nvidia AIBs basically do everything and anything to not do that, so Nvidia has to be harsh just so customers have a chance to get reliable cards. (12VHPWR not withstanding but nothing stopping AIBs from using two.)

>be quiet Pure Base 500 TG White
Is this a bad case? It's on clearance and I just prefer the looks to the more rainbow fan look

>>106038796
Protip: buy the 2 year microcenter replacement warranty and short the card in 20 months for your money back and upgrade

>>106038862
desu everyone wants more performance, it just makes sense

>>106038876
It's super hot but it is quiet. If you have a big ass cpu/gpu it is a bad idea. Airflow sucks. Positives are it has lots of drive bays and it's quiet. I like it overall. Get an aib though

>>106038880
If you're not Jewish the alternative to this is giving a kid on facebook a really good deal

>>106038862
I don't know how things are on AMD right now but you can easily shave off like 100 watts on the 5070/70ti/80 with an undervolt. Mine at stock will just keep boosting until it's sitting at 1.1v

>>106038902
Oh I was thinking of this, the 600. The 500 looks worse with the psu shroud and no 5.25"

>>106038868
>but nothing stopping AIBs from using two
...Except Nvidia?

>>106038876
>solid front
why
just get meshify 3 without rgb
you can even get a version without the glass side panel to be extra contrarian

>>106038921
40xx and 50xx low end gpus are the most efficient
amds 9070 xt is taking way more watts than 5070 ti while 9070 is relatively efficient

>>106038930
It has teenie little vents in the side. Personally I reccomend this case if you want no rgb, all the drive bays, and don't care about thermals.

>>106038906
Then I don't get my $600 back

>>106038974
5.25 bays are utterly useless in 2025
insisting on them is an actual sign of senility

>>106039036
Where else are you going to put your car lighter+ash tray bay and cupholder bay?

My GPU became busted but bought another one this week. The busted GPU was a budget one so no harm there much. I was going to RMA the busted one but looking at the comments of the customer service for the brand I had sounded like endless run around until the warranty was up. What do you guys do with your old damaged parts?

>>106039036
>More front io
>Usb and sd card drawer and battery drawer
>Hot swappable drives

the only reason we don't have faster (oled) panels yet is because their scalers can't keep up and need to be evolved, like the new 500hz qdoled is the same panel as before just a new hardware to drive it at more hz and brighter

2ms persistence/500hz oled seems to be as good as 600hz+ TN/w strobing, diminishing returns are hitting hard here, need 1000hz 1000fps for 1ms persistence

resolutions possible with DP2.1+DSC 10bits:
8k 255hz
6k 386hz
5k 498hz
4k 750hz
1440p 1173hz
1080p 1464hz

>>106039057
I buy the microcenter warranty and get all my money back. If it is out of warranty I sell it on ebay for scrap price.

>>106038880
brown behavior

>>106038974
This is begging to be hit with a drill and angle grinder and a side mesh 2x 140mm fans installed

>>106039087
I spent the $80 for the warranty of course I will use the service I paid for. Otherwise why would I pay them for the service?

I'm thinking about building a beefy PC in a few months but I've been so out of the loop that I barely know shit. I'm fairly sure I want 9800X3D since it's a fucking beast, but what RAM should I get with that if I want best performance?

Also what GPU? Nvidia only. No I'm not fanboying, AMD software is cucked and I'm not dealing with that. Fuck off.

>>106039121
You want 4x16gb gddr5 6000mhz cl30 ram in a kit sold for it. If you go over 64gb there are usually problems on am5 boards throttling the ram speed. The only nvidia card right now that is an okay price is the 5070ti 16gb. But you should just wait for the 5070ti super 24gb in 5 months.

>>106039121
post budget
3d cpus benefit less from the fast ram, 2 x 16gb 6000cl30 is a safe bet
if you are going for mid-high range then 5070 for gpu

>>106039064
samsung obviously dictates how fast the panels can go and they want their annual new iterations
The strange part is not having black frame insertion. To get clarity of 500hz oled you need games to produce 500 frames a second.
But with bfi you can get better clarity at lower fps. The monitor just needs to be tuned to work with it.

>>106039141
anon you shouldn't go quad on am5, it gimps your ram speed

>>106039064
consider the following that is possible right now
>27" 5k 480hz dual mode monitor w/ 1440p 960hz alternate mode
but the first 5k monitor you will get soon is a 5k 120hz one because their scalers can't keep up
it's over

>>106039121
X3D CPUs don't need to push RAM frequency to the limit for gaming. But sure, it will still help in other tasks.

>>106039148
>post budget
Infinite.

No but seriously I'm fine with anything as long as it's not that literal gold GPU.

>>106038928
It was basically confirmed that they could use two, but AIBs never bothered to ask
See the Galax 4090 HOF for dual 16pins

>>106039121
nvidia software is majorly cucked though? drivers dont work on windows 10, windows 11, linux, or freebsd.

>>106039121
>>106039203
Why buy something that literally doesn't work? (Nvidia)

>>106039210
Hell they can't even play DXVK 32BIT on RTX 5000

>>106039152
>The strange part is not having black frame insertion.
most new ones have bfi at 240hz from 500hz, asus elmb and so on
does anyone even use it is it usable idk

>>106039159
>>106039141
I was thinking 2x32 anyway, is there any benefit to getting 4x16, other than the "oh shit my stick died" not hitting that hard?

>>106039203
I should probably add that I am not only not interested, but also OPPOSED to DLSS and FSR/framegen SLOP.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2YxTJxLv-E
I'd like to hear the response to this from the njudea shills who said upscaling was a pure positive for gaming. Now we have devs lying about the resolution the game is running at even. Forced 67% scaling and it tells you its DLAA in the settings lmao.

>>106039242
dlss is the premium way to produce anti aliasing in games and frame gen works really well with modern high hz oled monitors

>>106039264
Are there resources for getting into water cooled cpu+gpu? Seems complicated is there AIO solutions? Also how do youth cool the ram and vrms without the yuge air cooling from cpu/gpu fans

This may sound stupid but could my system suffer BSODs if my RAM's frequency is above the recommended frequency for my CPU?

>>106039264
>9950x3d + liquid cooler
Is there any point to getting a 9950 instead of a 9800 if you're going GAYMING and not going to do any actual WORK on the PC? I don't know if 2x the price is worth <10% frame increase.

>>106039281
paying 200 extra seems insignificant for someone with infinite budget
and you can always find hobby style usecases for many cores later on

>>106039277
Yes and no? Maybe? Fucky things can happen if the frequency has to be lowered.

Your RAM might also need more juice than your MOBO/CPU can handle.

>>106039230
4x16 has no benefits outside of overall price probably
again going 4 sticks on am5 is a bad idea, you might not even be able to turn on the xmp

>>106039291
I'm asking not because of money but because the performance seems kind of shit for gaming vs 9800.

Also isn't LC a literal meme? Isn't regular aircooling just straight up better, outside of some autistic loops?

>>106039277
on ryzen yes. when you run the memory above the recommended you're overclocking the fabric.

>>106039302
No? Liquid coolers are nice for not being 2kg blocks weighing on the mobo. The liquid absorbs heat and the fan ramping up is less noticeable.

Then the 5090s having retarded large heatsinks that require anti-sag supports is stupid. If you're using 600w use a better cooling solution.

niggers is Asrock X570 Phantom Gaming 4 good for a ryzen 7 5700X i saw it supports ECC ram and i have tons of those

>>106039322
>Liquid coolers are nice for not being 2kg blocks weighing on the mobo
I don't think that will be an issue if I'm going to buy a GPU support. The fan mounting isn't (shouldn't be, fucking chinx) as fragile as GPU pins.

>>106039302
9950x3d is basically with the margin of error in games compared to 9800x3d
essentially you get the best of both worlds

there's no reason to not get AIO for high end stuff, they are cheap and have better cooling/noise compared to air coolers

>>106039163
It works or it wont depending on your memory controller lottery.

I don't want to spent £3000 on a new computer

>>106039205
I swear one of GN Steve's industry contacts told him that Nvidia forbade them from using more than one 12vhpwr connector. Heck if I remember which video that was in, though.

>>106039350
>there's no reason to not get AIO for high end stuff
Any actual named recommendation and not just "liquid cooling"?

Does it matter if my UPS constantly switches to passthrough mode when I'm at load on my GPU (due to being rated lower than what my computer draws)? My UPS is rated for 600W, I draw that and more with my 5090 + rest of my stuff. Don't care to have the extra watt coverage in the event of a blackout, but it makes an annoying beep that I've now muted whenever it's overdrawing and in passthrough mode (APC). Should I just get a new UPS that can take it or keep it on mute?

>>106039354
Spend $4030 then. Problem solved. Give me a like if I helped!

>>106039359
I remember that too

>>106039364
read the op
i have 9950x3d + liquid freeze 3 pro 360mm, its cool
280mm and 420mm version should be fine too
single fan AIOs are a meme

>>106039073
Oh nice. I honestly don't know how all this works though. I first bought the budget GPU off Amazon a year ago but forgot add/buy a warranty from Amazon. When it became busted I checked the brand's site to see what I could do with it and it said their parts have a 2 year warranty after purchase I think. Looking up the process people had with sending parts back to them. One comment I read was someone dealing with them where they lied and said its a 1 year warranty even though the site said 2 years and had the guy going back and forth with them with a never ending battle that took months until his warranty actually expired.

So I really don't how their warranty works yet.

YEA MAN I THINK MY 3600X IS INSTALLED WRONG OR SMTH. AND MAYBE MY 1070 NEEDS NEW THEMRAL PASTE

>>106039477
I'm using a 5700x and I'm cool with waiting 3 more years. I get 60fps in everything I play in 4k already

>>106039672
3 years already is crazy

>>106039688
Go on ali express and order a 5700x3d

>>106039672
am5 has all the exploding cpus thoughever

So 5800 is the best njudea card if you don't want a 5900, right?

>>106039717
the consensus seems to be the perf jump for price cost is not worth it from a 5070 ti in gaymen
5080 is better for production though you get more encoders on the gpu than a 5070 ti

>>106039717
For the money 5070ti is best. 5080 buyers are going to feel retarded for paying $1500 for 16gb when the 24gb model comes out in 5 months.

>>106039765
Roughly what I expected. Moneybags and paypigs will always reach for power. I'm just wondering if 5080 Super will come out anytime soon, and if it will be possible to even get my hands on it.

>>106039789
It's going to come out Q1 2026

>>106039683
I am most interested in what igpu cpus come out for zen 6.

>>106039804
>It's going to come out Q1 2026
But I want one now.

>>106039826
Then buy a 4090 they should have the same performance.

>haven't had any issue with Nvidia drivers in months
>upgrade to 577.00
>have had my display driver crash 3 times
how fucking retarded is this company?

amd raping intel with epyc is nice
from what i've seen in azure and aws, intel is still mostly used on lower tiers and has wider availability, but epyc is used on proper tiers when price/performance come into play

Looking to buy a prebuilt. Anything terribly wrong with picrel? Looking to run games at 4k60fps w/ video capture (not streaming). I don't really care about super high settings, ray tracing, or ai frame gen stuff. Bought last computer 10 years ago and don't intend to replace for another 10. $3k US is my hard limit (after tax so ~2700ish) and this is $3014 with the sale.

I sincerely have 0 interest in building so please recommend something prebuilt or a specific company if this is no good. Thank you, anons.

>melting cpus
>shitty memory controller can't support ddr5 speeds or 4 dimms

>>106040061
Seems fine other than being built by cyberpower

>replace some parts
>all is well for weeks
>decide to undervolt with ryzen master
>suddenly bitching about having csm enabled on startup
jesus what is amd's problem

>>106040061
it's hard to see from this angle, does it have side intake?
psu and case are probably garbage like in every prebuilt, but overall looks fine

>>106040061
I could never buy prebuilt because they never tell you what exact ram or mobo it is just vague descriptions

TICK TOCK TICK TOCK TICK TOCK
Do you hear that radeon niggers? Your time is running short. Apologize to Jensen and our greatest ally Intel while you still can. The 5070=4090 prophecy is coming true.
>>106040061
Seems good other than the AMD processor. You clearly are new to this but Ryzen is favored exclusively by homosexuals and retarded brownoids.

>>106040061
>I don't really care about super high settings, ray tracing, or ai frame gen stuff.
??? then why are you buying a 5080 and 9950x?

so done with these fucking driver issues on my 5070 ti. i was in the middle of typing up a shitpost dunking on the AMDrones ITT when my screen went black and I had to turn my whole pc off. im rmaing and switching to 9070 xt fuck it idc anymore.

I mean I'll set things as high as they can go, but it's not a necessity that I run things at ultramax+. And I'd like to future proof as I said for a decade. If you think something lesser would suffice, my ears are open.

>>106040263
Radioshack fucking SUCKED. It was like shopping at Office Depot/Office Max. They have nothing you need and when you actually find the stuff you need its overpriced. They also try to upsell you shit whether its printer crap or electronics.

better than nothing i guess
glass boxes are obnoxious, but people buying prebuilts love glass and rgb
should be fine if both aio and the exhaust fan are configured for push

so done with these fucking crashing issues on my 5070. i was in the middle of typing up a shitpost dunking on the AMDrones when my doom dark ages crashed and whole pc shut off, im rmaing and switching to a 9070 fuck it idc anymore.

Can I build a computer(16 or 8 GB RAM) that can run DBD game with only $30? I'm sick that I can't play it in mobile anymore

>>106040397
you have to be 18 years old to post here
get a job

>>106040430
Sadly I'm over 18, but maybe so mentally ill that I can talk like a kid sometimes, being poor & having a lot of traumas ins't something you call as a "healthy life" ;-;

>>106040396
played this game on release on my 5090 since I got a copy for free and not a single crash or stutter the entire time

>>106040263
Microcenter exists

>>106040491
Just steal a computer from an office bro

>>106040598
You know what?

That's actually what I was thinking, but I'm not smart to do it without getting caught, I need a plan, brain not working for that

>>106040640
Just say that Jeff called you to do maintenence on it

>>106040654
I DON'T WORK, A LOT OF THING IS HAPPENING, AND PLS DON'T CARE ABOUT WHY MY CHARACTERS ARE BIG, BUT I SAW THAT IT WOULD BE QUITE EASY TO STEAL A PC FROM AN HOSPITAL, BUT SOMEHOW I DON'T FEEL LIKE DOING IT, I FEEL SAD THINKING ABOUT IT, MAYBE MORALS OR WHATEVER IT IS

>>106040683
Don't do a hospital, do an insurance agency or call center. Just go to a cubicle with nobody in it and start unhooking the computer.

>>106039098
nigger-tier behavior anon.
You wanna scam Amazon or newegg? based, you wanna scam Microcenter, the best retail store for pc gamers in america? fuck you. You're a nigger. Simple as that. Stop coping and denying it, nobody is going to call you based for actively damaging the bottom line of one of the few retailers that are held in high regard in 2025.

If you're going to be a nigger, act like one and own it, you insecure nigger-faggot.

>>106040700
They have cameras there, and I don't know lockpicking, also, anyone would be sus of me if they saw me carrying a computer wouldn't it?

>>106040700
But still I get a little about the idea, I will search for someone who ins't protecting their puter

>>106040712
Um excuse me but I paid them for this service.

so done with these fucking missing textures on my 5060 ti. i was in the middle of playing monster hunters wilds up a shitpost dunking on the monsters when my textures disappeared and then the screen went black, I had to turn my whole pc off. im returning and switching to a 9060 XT fuck it idc anymore.

>>106038779
>they treat partners like cucks
Partners are the reason there are virtually zero MSRP cards
Fuck em

>>106040061
aside from the 9950x cpu, which is an odd choice as its designed for production work, not gaming, its okay. You're buying the wrong gpu for this date however, a 5080 with 16gigs of vram is simply a bad purchase when the super-variants are around the corner. Also that ram will be poorly specced and will undercut your pcs efficiency imo.

I don't value whatever the shills screech about vram efficiency, if you believe them you're retarded.
Also Cyberpower? they're shit, the best prebuilds are always from your local retail pc hardware store, or you could even make up a build and pay them to assemble it from their inventory.

>>106035883 (OP)
bit of a unique question for here but can you guys recommend a desk please? atm i have a 120cm long by 75cm wide pine dining table with 2 inches sawn off the legs. cant recall the height, looks about 70 to 80cm tall. i need a desk that fits two moniters of 27 and 22 inch respectively and that can have a moza wheelbase attach to it which is also a small orofile than the desk i have now. ideally some shelves to put my pc and shit on. ive seen the £50 cheap jobs on amazon but they lie about the shelf size, you van olny fit a oc with one shelf removed. thanks guys.

>70w vs 179w
at least nvidia is power efficient

>>106040801
What if nvidia just sold you the gpu/memory pcb with no cooler on it and you could just install a cooler yourself and then I could buy a thermalright or arctic or whatever gpu cooler instead of the stupid partner ones or an nvidia founders one? Why are these all in one solutions even a thing?

>>106040835
Because people willing and able to do that would be too small of a market to bother with, especially in nvidia's case since they're already moving away from gaming.

>>106040835
founders edition/reference boards are garbage compared to the custom ones.

also its impossible for one company to meet support/supply worldwide. so they spread it out to other companies.

>>106039364
You get lian li galahad/corsair icue link/arctic freezer III 360 AIO's for performance, as those 3 are constantly vying for top spot in all the testing, or get a TRYX aio for absolute style points and almost as good performance. Loads of great choices for AIOs these days.

>>106040835
because that would introduce another potential point of failure, and gpu boards are incredibly complex and sensitive, that's a bad idea with loads of things that can, and would, go wrong with user installs. 99% of pc users are not comfortable with removing their gpu coolers to reapply thermal paste, including me, who has been building and using my own pcs daily for over a decade.

>>106040835
It can be done

>>106040874
So offer tiers of boards and let the cooler/fan companies do their thing

>>106040897
that isnt an option these days because of DDR6+ vram though, it runs too hot and needs dedicated cooling, nearly as much as the gpu-core. Also not many cases can support the space requirements.

Its why if i was cringe enough to paypig for a 5090, i'd get the ones with a built-in AIO, it'd be the only way to cool it effectively.

Need an extra ssd sata power cable for SF 600, would this be fine?

>>106040882
They already sell watercooling blocks thoughbeit. You just need thermal pads for the memory They could absolutely sell unshrouded boards with gpu coolers sold seperately.
