Thank fuck. The TR Silver Soul 135 mobo bracket fits on my MATX board inside the NCase M2 where the PA 120 mini didn't. I suspect, looking the the pics, that the Noctua D12L bracket would also fit too.

Mostly not a meme, alas. Also, more sticks = more strain on the CPU's RAM controller. So even two of the exact same 2x16 @6000 kits may not run as 4x16 @6000, at least not without some fine-tuning of RAM settings.

You can save £83 by ordering the 5700X3D off AliExpress which is where most of the stock got dumped by AMD initially:
https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256806921974699.html

You can go cheaper on the motherboard and still run the 5700X3D fine (it'll come down to what features & I/O you need) with the floor being for £40 less:
https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/TG9tt6/asrock-b550m-phantom-gaming-4-micro-atx-am4-motherboard-b550m-phantom-gaming-4

Nitpick options:
3600CL18 RAM is effectively the same speed as 3200CL16, so this kit of the latter will give you identical performance for £4 less

You can swap out the Phantom Spirit for the Peerless Assassin on X3D chips and not really notice the slightly higher temps for £5 less

Pretty silly since I do not care about the extra high refresh rate but I do want that new 480hz PG27AQDP just for the new woled subpixel layout since it would finally be a 1440p oled with decent text. Probably should just get one of the 4k versions of the panel especially since the 32GS95UE is cheaper right now but I do not want to give up the performance of 1440p.
>>
>>102049580
>>102049553
yeah a new(or used) mobo+cpu+ram is needed for it at the very least. given the current used market, you could prob find a used i5 9th or 8th gen + or ryzen 3000+ gen for ~$100 on ebay. imo thats prob a valid path if he's low on cash.

>>102049581
Sure, you can always upgrade to another 16gb stick of the same series few months later

>>102049581
>Is it fine to build AM5 with one 16Gb RAM stick for now?
>Also, is this mobo passable at least?
Eh it'll run but it rather defeats the point. In that you won't really be getting the benefits of AM5. If $100 (which would be enough to both get 32GB and a good mobo) is going to break you then you should consider saving more or building AM4/1700.

I don't know what to tell you man. Other than "it won't".
The problem is that any single upgrade just won't do what it's meant to do. A new card won't let her play modern games because the CPU will hold it back. A new CPU won't do it either because, well, 1050 Ti.

DIMMs sold as dual kits are only ever rated to hit their advertised speeds when only that kit pair is installed. Even buying two of the same kit is not technically supported by the manufacturer, and is why quad kits with high speeds aren't as common/more expensive.
Of course, most people just make two dual kits work because 95% of the time it will just work fine.
Hell in my current system I'm mixing 1Rx8 x2 with 2Rx16 x2 for 48GB of DDR4 @ 3200MHz on a board that only "supports" 2933MHz and it's been working fine for years.

NOOB HERE!

I'm looking at a itx pc on marketplace. It's $800 cad

Here are the details.

Cooler Master NR200 Mini ITX case
Ryzen 5 5600 6 Core 12 Thread Processor
Gigabyte Gaming OC 8G RTX 3060Ti
Corsair Vengence LPX 16GB (2x8) RAM
AsRock B550M-ITX/ac motherboard
CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Black Edition CPU Cooler
512gb M.2 + 500GB Samsung 860 EVO SSD
Corsair SF 600 PSU

6 Arctic Cooling P12 PWM 120mm Case Fans (2 on the bottom, 2 on the CPU cooler, and 2 on the top)

Main use cases are video editing, blender, motion graphic, music production and gaming.

Is there a better small form factor pc I could build for the same amount of money? Or is this a decent purchase?

Thanks for the help guys.

DIY zen 5 is basically irrelevant. They spit out the 9800x3d and 9950x3d (lmao why the 990x3d exists), retake performance crown and this will all be forgotten. What will happen is OEMS and especially the server big bois will sit up and take notice of power:performance and be all over it.

Is the motherboard a part of the problem or just the single RAM stick? If it's just the RAM - I can cope with reduced performance now to easily upgrade later, but if the mobo also gonna need a replacement then yeah, no point.

I'd save more money, but need to buy something now.

I want to upgrade mainly just my processor and RAM. So I need a new motherboard. So I am hoping for a good one to be recommended. But am also curious if I should go for a Ryzen 7000 series CPU or wait and see about the 9000 X3D chips. I do video editing in addition to gaming, so IDK if I should get an X3D CPU or just a regular X CPU.

AMD fanboys are pathetic.
What does AMD have? Nothing. Their chip design is still inferior to intel. They rely on chinks to manufacture their design and because intel fabs were temporarily behind that was their only advantage for 2-3 years. Intel will have the most advanced fabs in the world in 2025 and also make chips for others which will kill the chinks and as for AMD.... I have very bad news for you but they will have no choice but make their inferior chips at intel before going bankrupt.

You probably don't buy AM4 at this point. An R5 7600 has the same average perf as the 5700X3D, and you'll have an upgrade path on AM5. Compared with the components you picked, you spend a couple bucks more on DDR5 to go AM5

AM5 is fine, the 7800X3D is still the top gaming cpu (I guess you mean Zen5).
you have a few options.
a)install the microcode patch in the 1700 build, migrate back to the 8600K and RMA the 13700K and wait until it gets back.
b) run the 13700K until it dies and then RMA it, migrate to the 8600K and wait until the 13700K gets back.
c) run the 13700K until it dies, don't RMA it, migrate to a new AM5 or the new Intel socket platform.

There isn't a huge difference between 5700X and 7800X3D whether in video encoding or gaming. However the 7950X3D can encode twice as a fast as a 5700X, but it's almost $200 more than the 7800X3D. 7900X probably makes most sense price-to-performance in your case and still having a significant improvement in encoding than the 5700X.

>>102051911
cause it's 10nm vs 5nm (meaning higher power consumption, smaller transistors switch faster and do that with less voltage and less energy) and without v-cache (more cache means the cpu has to fetch data from RAM less often which costs energy and leads to the cpu waiting for data and doing nothing on that thread in other words more cache makes the cpu faster and more efficient) and it's remarkable that intel despite this beats AMD or is on par.
>>
>>102049125
You should be worried about over-tightening, not the cooler being lose. A tight cooler does literally nothing for heat, the goal of a cooling unit is to just attach to a CPU and then not move. Your thermal block isn't a brick, it doesn't need to be viced to the motherboard, that can crack the board.

Totaling around $500. How did I do? I dont care buying new tech especally with degrading shitel cpus or mememd 9000 series. I built my haswell system in 2016, 3 years after haswell release. I have not opened my steam account since 2020 so 3d chips are not relevant to me. Or was i supposed to buy the 7000 series after all? Hoping to last another 8+ years.

I suppose it looks fine so long as you don't do anything AVX512 related. I'm not checking prices, I'm assuming the mobo costs as much as a regular B550 board.

nah, it doesn't need active cooling. active cooling is what motherboard vendors chose because a smaller heatsink and a small fan is cheaper than a slightly larger heatsink. it was only like 40w or something.
AMD released a later X570 chipset so vendors could justify their smaller heatsinks.

Given how cheap heatsinks are, I really think it had to do with aesthetics.

MB vendors are deathly afraid of putting actual effective passive heatsinks on much of anything nowadays. Everything is a chunk of aluminum with a few slots cut into it, they'll even put heat pipes for all the little it does. Even gigabyte who does have actual finned heatsinks on some very higher end boards put them way too close together to be effective.

Finned heatsinks started to go away on boards when they started to make them look more cohesive and not a mis-mash of different colored parts.

so you refresh is 240hz, you fps is 60
240/60=4 120/60=2 even divider is so frames don't happen out of sync too much
the higher the refresh the less noticeable the tearing, I run 144/72 and haven't seen any tearing since 2015.
Some games force 60hz, like damn sekiro, and I see tearing instantly, it's unbearable
VRR is the real scam, it made sense when they first devised it because high refresh rate wasn't that common, but now? pointless.

That's fine, at least you know what you're getting. The heatsinks that try to hide the base so you can't tell if its copper or not is not okay. Some of them are just copper heatpipes mixed with aluminum, all anodized to be one color so you can't tell. They just say it's a copper plate. This doesn't cool as well as a copper plate interfaced to aluminum.

What am I missing with RAM?
All the 6000mhz CL30 ones are "tested speeds", SPDs seem to be 4800mhz 40-40-40-77 (but these numbers are harder to find). Which is 120m operations/second
My seven year old sticks are SPD 2400mhz 16-16-16-39 (150m operations/second)
Does memory interleaving mean the higher speeds are more important than latency, is there some other spec I'm missing, have I found bad examples, or have they been stagnant this last decade (outside of size)?

Those 6000CL30 kits blow every ddr4 kit out of the water save for specially binned b-die like dual-rank 4400cl17 and 4000cl14
DDR5 is way better designed as a single stick is now two 32-bit channels which are easier to saturate than a single 64-bit channel like ddr4, meaning you get closer to the theoretical max perf of what the ram can do.
On DDR4, you'd actually need two ranks per channel (2x SR or 1x DR) to get the most out of it because the 64-bit channel is very inefficient and don't gets saturated easier, leading to weird situations like 3200 CL16 dual rank ram outperforming much faster 4000 cl17 ram because the former can be interleaved and have more addressable banks than the latter.

Because it was kind of hard too.
There was a time where the highest end CPU was $1k and existed at the same time with $650 flagship GPUs

If you min-maxed with a high end GPU and an i5 then you could get a GPU to be 60% of the price of a PC, but it was very easy for the rest of the build to just eclipse a GPU.

Even an entry level system with an i3 something like a GTX 550 TI, you paid only $150 for the GPU with $350 going to the rest.
>>
>>102053512
There was never a time where the $1000 CPU was good for gaming. If you bought a $1000 Athlon X2 or Pentium D then you'd get WORSE performance than just buying a good single core CPU. Games take years to catch up to CPUs.

The only time CPUs legitimately cost the majority of a gaming PC was in the days of software rendering. Once the Geforce 3 and then Radeon 9000 series came out, you legitimately spent $250 on a gaming GPU back when a self-assembled PC altogether would cost you just $750.

well then go for Asus ROG Swift PG32UCDP or LG 32GS95UE
I like LG more because it got hardware calibration feature, you can inject ICC profile directly into monitor, no OS layer issues
on the other hand asus calibrated well enough out of box

>4K 240 Hz OLED is the way to go
I don't really need 4k mate, given that the only card that can run high fidelity games without compromises on it is a 4090. Anything else would just be kind of a waste of refresh rate.
Or maybe I'm just coping, idc, I'd rather wait until 4k oleds become more established.

how? I've seen most people complain about how lackluster the color correction settings are on LG oleds, and how you can only pick between "Gamer 1" and "Gamer 2" presets. That'd be a huge selling point if I can adjust it myself.

Always better to buy the highest resolution panel you can afford as long as you have a Geforce card
4K DLSS Quality looks better than 1440p DLAA, and they have a similar performance cost

>>102053850
>wrong pic
No, you posted the right pic. Wukong's performance will be typical of UE5 games
>>
>>102053837
>66% upscaling
I'm assuming that's without RT? If that game even supports it.
Idk man, ~50fps on a 240hz panel doesn't sit right with me, not even considering future titles which I don't think will be any more optimized than the current ones. Movies do look better though.
>>
>>102053878
>~50fps on a 240hz panel doesn't sit right with me
The monitor is one of the longest lasting parts of your system. It's ok to have a little room to grow into it, especially since you can lean heavily on DLSS

nah, consoles aren't getting a new gen for anothr 5-6 years, it's going to be fine, cinematic settings are retarded high looks exactly the same, chinaman simple cranked internal resolutions for effects to 16k I bet

>>102053878

VRR is a scam, high refresh has it's benefits for low fps
that game has PT which looks meh to me
>>
>>102053876
>4K DLSS Quality looks better than 1440p DLAA
I don't doubt it, but again, it'd be a moot point because of the huge headroom in refresh rate.
>>
>>102053850
please understand, Nvidia didn't expect to hit 4k 150fps with RT enabled so quickly so now they need to push developers to adopt path tracing to sell new gpus.
>>
>>102053899
yes
>>
>>102053908
the last thing they want is their gpus to hit 200hz+ at modern resolutions and being cpu bottlenecked 100% of the time making their higher tiers pointless to buy
>>
>>102053924
at least they've got 8K to fall back on in a few years.
>>
>>102053905
>huge headroom in refresh rate
With frame gen, you're often doubling your FPS. Easy to hit 100+ FPS in the most demanding games, even at 4K

>>102053924
Frame Gen not only allows doubling of the your base FPS, but also it ignores CPU bottlenecks
>>
>>102053898
I guess, but the maybe 2 or so years I'd be spending waiting for a return on my investment, I could just buy a lower resolution panel that fits my needs perfectly and look at 4k monitors when they've had more room to breathe in the market.
>>
>>102053951
frame gen is a way to scam poorfags into buying lower tier cards
>>
>>102053955
To me, the only reason to punt with a cheaper monitor is that you want some feature that's not out yet. For example, Nvidia Pulsar is only available on LCDs for now, but at some point in the future I can't imagine that it won't be available with OLED
>>
>>102053968
well, you want 60 real fps for responsiveness, doubling with framegen just makes picture smoother-ish
framegenning under 50fps gives zero benefit because game feels bad to play
>>
>>102053951
Frame gen always feels off to me. Maybe it's placebo, but it makes the image look "fake" especially during motion, not to mention the input lag. At least DLSS blurs the line between AI and regular rendering pretty well, but with FG I always notice it, no matter what.
>>

>>102054021
pretty much. It's way too smooth. In a way that feels fake when you compare it to "real" high fps experiences.
>>
>>102054032
they love consoomers but they love money more
>>
>>102054008
>not to mention the input lag
Generally, there's not much additional latency. It's just that latency doesn't improve to match the perceived framerate. But keep in mind that without Reflex, a lot of games have way more input lag than with Frame Gen. Reflex is always implemented with Frame Gen

This is driving me crazy, I really need to make a decision and just actually decide on a monitor. Just keep running myself in circles about which one to get and settle on one only to change my mind later. Main two are currently going between wait for PG27AQDP, get a 32GS95UE even though my graphics card can probably not handle it well also could just get the much cheaper 27GS95QE. Even still considering further cheaping out, getting a Q27G3XMN and plan to get an oled next year or something. But the more I think about it the more twisted around in circles I get.

You're likely to run into issues trying 4 sticks of DDR5 at that speed.
You can also run into issues like I had on my old PC where I bought a 2nd set of identical sticks, except they weren't actually identical, G.Skill had swapped the actual memory chips they were using and it made it completely impossible to run together.

Realistically how many fans does a PC need to function right? I work at a thrift store and collect pieces

I have a deep cool wave v2 case which looks very bare bones. Doesn't even come with fans (pic related). It does have a 120mm slot in the front bottom and a 120mm slot in the rear.

The PSU is mounted at the top too. I do have access to fans. From brands such bit Fenix and a bunch of fans from that NZXT brand (raided a messed up case)

Are those enough for the following build?
i5 4590 (stock cooler)

Those specs you probably only need one in the rear exhausting (plus whatever fans are on the CPU cooler) but it would be better with a 2nd in the front intaking. If you can figure out what types you have, the fastest RPM capable PWM fan should go in the front and control it through bios. 800 to 1200 RPM below 40c, then ramp it up until it's at max speed above 80c.

Lol it looks like it doesn't even have 2 fan spaces in the front. Just the one on the front bottom. I also just noticed that the rear fan is a lot smaller. Not sure if I even have a fan for it. It does have a door panel fannslot but I'm not quite sure if it would fit once the GPU is installed.
>>
>>102056078
specs say it's a 90mm fan, however it has a 2nd set of holes so it probably fits an 80mm fan as well.
>door panel fannslot
Unless you're using a giant CPU cooler it should fit just fine.
Silverstone and arctic make slim 120mm fans so one of those might be an idea if you want to spend cash on it and a normal fan won't fit.
