My PC is now almost 2.5 years old. Now I would like to upgrade him.
Currently installed:
Mainboard: MSI B350 Tomahawk
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1600X
GPU: Manli GTX1060 6 GB
RAM: Crucial 16GB DDR4 / 2400 Mhz
PSU: 600W BeQuiet ATX 80+
Cooler: BeQuiet Pure Rock
Hard drives and SSDs that will definitely stay.
In addition to the RAM, I would also like to replace the mainboard, the GPU and the CPU. The following should be:
Mainboard: https://www.mindfactory.de/...22750.html
CPU: https://www.mindfactory.de/...13645.html
GPU: https://www.mindfactory.de/...20235.html
RAM: https://www.mindfactory.de/...81599.html
Now my question is whether it fits the price / performance. I have already dealt with it extensively, but still wanted to ask again. I think the 600W of the power supply should be enough. Likewise the TDP of the cooler.
Two screens will hang on the PC, one HDMI (24 ") and the other with DP (32"). The PC is used for video editing, image editing and gaming, and occasionally streaming on Twitch. Shooters like COD, Battlefield or RB6s are mainly played. I have only assembled older PCs so far, are there things I have to consider? Or can I simply replace the parts bit by bit?
Should fit pretty well. At convenient on the website you can calculate how much power your power supply needs.
Is the air cooler sufficient for the Ryzen 7 3700X or does it need water cooling?
That is definitely enough. Unless you want to overclock. Then I would rather recommend a WaKü.
You can do the upgrade like this. Mainboard doesn't need a new one, just make a BIOS update for the old one. The processor fits your purposes
The RAM is very expensive, I would rather use a kit without RGB. 16 GB may already be sufficient.
As a graphics card, the RX 5700XT would be a good alternative for the money (or for less).
Thanks for the answer!
The problem with the mainboard is that my old one only has 4 SATA connectors. That limits me quite a bit, because I have several hard drives and a CD drive.
Would you personally prefer the RX5700XT to the RTX2060-Super? I really like the look.
I currently have 16 GB in it, but I always have quite a few tabs open in the browser and play alongside. 32 GB seem quite sensible to me
No, I have no idea about overclocking. I think everything stays that way.
If you want to use ray tracing: 2060S
If not: RX5700XT (Here I recommend the Red Devil and the Nitro +)
LuKü is enough, but the boxed cooler is not recommended.
It needs to be overclocked to 4.3 mere 150W, which the cooler blows away with the left, but it makes strange noises, as pretty as it is…
I will assemble the BeQuiet Pure Rock that I already had in my old PC. I also ordered extra new thermal paste.
The ryzen 7 3700x comes with a very good rgb fan that has a relatively good cooling capacity
I'd rather spend another 60 euro with me and get the comfortable one! Dark Rock 4.
Can you do that then take the Ryzen 7 3700x if you want to cut videos with it. RAM can be made to 32GB, 16GB is enough, but I think so too. As a graphics card I would probably use the 8GB Gigabyte Radeon RX 5700XT
I would like to try RTX
In theory, you can just do a bios update to use the 33700x. Otherwise you can do it like this
If you only do gaming you should take the Ryzen 5 3600 and the 2070 Super.
I'll buy the 3600XT when it comes out. I actually wanted to get the 3600 and there's the boxed cooler… Well, not perfect.
Which 3600xt?
Well, RTX can also be switched off, and 4/5 FPS more or less doesn't move the world now.
Okay thanks
It will come out this year. Is only a small optimization of the Ryzen 3000 CPus.
I would clearly take the RX 5700XT. More performance for less money. Ray tracing is not really worth it.
4 SATA connectors should be enough. You will hardly have more than 3 hard drives. Otherwise CD drive away or ne M2 SSD on it
I read that some cards have severe software problems and get very warm. Can you recommend one to me?
Do you mean an RX5700XT now?
By the way, thanks for the compliment!
Yeah right. I mean the RX5700XT
