I need help overcoming my crippling paranoia from this new computer. It originally had a 13th gen Intel CPU before it became public knowledge that they were dogshit, so I suffered from a million BSODs that I still have trauma from. Of course it's worked perfectly fine since replacing it with a 12th gen but still, there's a multitude of other future problems like when will the SSD crap out or will my GPU catch on fire. Hell I've barely even gamed on here despite it being more than capable of running triple-A titles.

We live in the worst times to put a computer together because quality control is no longer important to major manufacturers.

We don't know for sure what the RAM ceiling or sweet spot will be so I wouldn't commit to anything until release. Though FWIW anything ≥6GT/s and ≤10ns 1st word latency will be Hynix based so you'll get a pretty consistent volt/frequency curve on either one. That is to say that if it's unstable at 7200 you should be able to clock it down to 7000/6800/6400 and tighten things up.

cache is mostly meme, when choosing between 2tb non cache and 1tb with cache, always pick the 2tb non cache

cache doesn't help with reads
it doesn't help with big writes either which is the only situation you have to wait for your ssd to do something
cache only helps with small writes but those are so quick anyway you will not notice any difference

Okay in that case I'd say it's not worth it. Reason being that the 3200 kit would reduce your FCLK - basically making the dual rank benefit a wash (application dependent ofc).
If you wanted an "actual" upgrade I'd say you'd need a 3600C16 DR kit but even then the value would be questionable. Especially with an X3D chip with reduced memory scaling.
Just for reference, I have a 5800X3D and noticed no difference when I upgraded to 3600C16 DR. I wasn't looking for DR just happened to "win" the Corsair IC lottery.

Keeping in mind that this is a budget desktop, is there any reason to put down the extra money for 4060TI 16GB? The price on that one is 460€ in the same shop right now. I will of course wait a month to see if I can snipe any black friday deals.

>NVME with DRAM
>games
Onboard DRAM isn't strictly necessary for this application because NVMe drives can use your system RAM for caching (called HMB or Host Memory Buffer). Onboard DRAM is still found on the top spec drives because it's slightly faster but not in a way that'll be noticeable for your load times.

>reliability (total tb written?)
It'd be more accurate to call that durability. In that case you'll want TLC NAND which is what I'd recommend for an OS drive anyway.

Here's the filters I'll use to find the best deal:
https://pcpartpicker.com/products/internal-hard-drive/#c1=di_m2.pcie_40_x4&A=1000000000000,24000000000000&sort=price&page=1

Just going down the list, these ones jump out at me:
>Team MP44L $57
Standard mid-spec HMB drive with mainstream components and high layer TLC NAND. A good fit for a standard gaming PC.

>Lexar NM790 $63
A slight step up from the Team Group drive. Still uses HMB but the Controller+NAND combo is fast enough to almost saturate the PCIe4x4 bus.

>WD SN770 $73
A step down in raw throughput but WD's HMB+SLC caching implementation is really good at sustained writes. This is the highest spec drive I'd recommend for a budget-constrained gaming system.

>MSI M480 PRO $75
Cheapest "top spec" drive I can see. Phison E18 controller (uses onboard DRAM), high layer count, 7000/7000 sequential. This is a common combination so the best deals will vary by the day.

>WD SN850X $80
This and the 990PRO are the "technical best" PCIe 4 drives. Overkill for gaming alone but an option if you're not limited by budget.

Also, here's the spreadsheet we use for drive specs:

Unless you want to do RT (which you can't really do), 7600XT offers very little over 7600. Just opt for the 7600 instead of you want to go that route. 6650XT is also an interesting option, check prices for that compared to the 7600, they're pretty neck and neck

In my opinion, unless you're building the system for someone who doesn't know about computers or you already have a preexisting motherboard you can slot a newer CPU in, you gain too much value from going AM5 due to the possibility of slotting in a new CPU in the future for minimal cost. They said they're supporting it until at least 2027.
Yes, you can get a system with about equivalent performance for like 50 bucks less if you go AM4 or Alder Lake, but you'll end up paying like 450$ rather than 150-200$ if you ever decide to upgrade. DDR5 is no longer the "new shiny gimmick", it's basically the standard now.

>>102730454
you know avoiding this is the reason to go positive pressure right?
>>
>>102730398
>Google says DRAM helps with longevity (durability) because Windows constantly writes shit to the drive or something.
This is true for SATA drives but not NVMe models equipped with HMB (which is the norm). Reason being that the cache doesn't actually store (much) data but rather the Flash Translation Layer (FTL). Basically a spreadsheet of "location on the drive" vs. "location on the filesystem". When any file is changed, as the OS is wont to do, that list needs to be updated - on a true DRAMless drive that means writing to the NAND but on a HMB drive it's just writing to your system memory.

>The SN850X is only rated for 600TBW which sorta scares me
That's standard for 1TB TLC drives and likely way more than you'll ever use. You might see a little higher TBW on other consumer drives but frankly it's more a matter of testing method than actual differences.
For reference, if you write 100GB a day, an astronomical amount for a consumer, the NAND would last 16 years. 99% chance you ditch it long before that.

Zen 4 & 12th Gen Alder Lake (both released in 2022) will go down as the last meaningful x86 CPUs at this rate. Neither AMD or Intel seem capable of overcoming their performance without huge instability issues, power consumption hits, or other radical architecture redesigns that either result in rounding error improvements or outright regressions for huge price increases in either the chips themselves or associated platform cost (Mobo/DDR5 RAM). There won't be a refresh in 2025 from either company as well IIRC, so it will be 2026 before Zen 6 & Nova Lake will get a chance at delivering something that completely supersedes them. THAT'S 4 YEARS TRYING TO MAKE SOMETHING BETTER.

What a disappointment, Maybe the 12 P-Core Only Bartlett Lake in Q1 can offer some semblance of excitement again by sheer brute force for the money. Intel should have just let TSMC die shrunk Raptor Lake.

right now its best to wait because on the AMD side Zen5 only had a 5% uplift over Zen4 in games, the 7800X3D is out of stock, the 9800X3D hasn't been released yet.
On the Intel side the 13th and 14th gen had degradation issues that they've only just patched in bios but Arrow lake is about to come out and might be okay.

Thanks for the DRAM/HMB explanation
The Z440 is still cheaper than the SN850X though. Do I get anything else apart from faster speeds?

So between Nvidia and AMD, which one usually supports their cards longer?
I am split between either getting the RTX 3050 or the RX 6600. I know the latter is better for gaming, but Nvidia is also much better for productivity and I want to play around with blender a bit. Not to mention it's a bit cheaper where I live as well.

Go with what card provides the best production results. Nvidia provides long lasting updates on the side.

I am working on a pretty tight budget.

No not really but for your purposes I wouldn't recommend either one. The SN850X is overkill and the Z440 is more expensive than the NM790 and MP44L. It's an early gen PCIe 4 drive so you're paying for that DRAM chip but not getting any more performance.
Don't get me wrong though - it's more than good enough for a gaming rig so go for it if you don't mind the extra $10.

Be honest with yourself, do you care more about blender performance (which I think is exclusively while rendering) or gaming performance. Most likely you'll realize you won't really mind if your render takes like half a minute more or whatever, so just grab the 6600
>>
>>102730665
I mean the 3050 sucks as a gaming card and a rendering card, the 6600 is okay as a gaming card but super sucks as a rendering card.
The 3060 is double the rendering performance of the 3050.

I am honestly not quite sure how blender will run with the rx6600. But if the performance difference really goes only as far as rendering time, then I am almost certainly going with what you recommend. I mostly want to play around with it, it's not like I plan on using it professionally.

>>102730704
>any tips on what to start looking at on the cpu side if that is my next upgrade after gpu?
sadly, I'd go with a 7600 + mobo + ram combo which will run you quite a lot.

Keep in mind that the 3060 anon recommended is likely only an advantage based on what pricing might be available. There is never a better card (except for 4090), there's only ever "better card at these prices". If you live in western europe, don't forget to check other regions on PCPP to see what might ship to you, you can sometimes save like 150-200€ on a full pc build just by combining regions

>>102730775
I'd say neither, but leaning more towards based. Someone overly cautious is better than someone with no regards to safety of the pc he's building
>>
>>102730800
I was fucking around with pretty simple shit in blender with my 6600XT & didn't have any issues. I wasn't making extremely detailed shit or rendering though, keep that in mind
if you just want to put some things together 6600 will be MORE than fine

I need help determining whether a build makes sense and is compatible... Wtf is a PCIe lane etc.

Use case
- Other than officey stuff, running 3-4 MMO game clients simultaneously without stagger at 1440x60+fps. I think this makes CPU cores and RAM more important, maybe VRAM? No intent to OC.

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/CgXGvj

CPU - AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Cooler - EK Nucleus AIO CR240 Dark
Motherboard - ASRock B650M Pro RS WiFi Micro ATX AM5
RAM - Corsair Vengeance 64 GB (2 x 32 GB) DDR5-5200 CL40
SSD - 3x Kingston NV3 1TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 NVME
HDD - 2x Seagate IronWolf NAS 12 TB 3.5" 7200 RPM HDD
GPU - Gigabyte WINDFORCE OC RTX 4070 Ti SUPER
Case - Fractal Design Pop Mini Silent
PSU - Corsair RM850e (2023) 850w
OS - Windows 11 Pro

Thoughts
Cooler - AIOs seem gimmicky to me, would a NH-D15 be enough? I think it fits.. barely
Motherboard - Does this have enough lanes? What is a lane?
RAM - Cheap DDR5 capacity, I don't know what a CL40 is
SSDs - Dual boot Linux and Win 11
HDDs - 2x 12TB mirrored
OS - Do I need Windows 11 Pro to create dynamic disk configurations?

Yes, but do you already have the 3600 it's not what I'd build with new ATM.

Not yet. If you have anything else to recommend around that price range or maybe a bit over feel free to. Where I live the 5600 is like 50$ more expensive, and I honestly don't have any need for the extra CPU power.
I was also thinking of going for the i3 12100f but I chose not to because I could get a more quality AMD mobo for around the same price (unless I am wrong).
>>

>>102731499
If Dell (or HP or other such big bois) actually cared AMD would make cpus to suit their needs due to volume. This won't happen as Intel ensures these companies will never move away from them. Remember when AMD flatout tried to give dell a million cpus for free and it wasn't enough to sway them? Fun times.

>9600 is as cheap as it gets.
it really isn't, the margin is terrific, by the wafer calculator it should be 857 dies for a $30,000 wafer. or $35 each Zen5 die. meanwhile the N6 wafer is $10,000 and can punch out 487 for the IOD or $20 each.
lets say $50 for packaging of all kinds, $20 for development and they're making a profit past $125.
>they need to embrace the $100 budget 4c CPU office market of Intel, where the big sales are made

The 12100F is a bit ahead of the 5500 in both gaming and lightly thread workloads (web browsing, photoshop, office apps) but gets destroyed in video encoding.

Also if you don't mind buying a tray CPU and can get a dirt cheaper cooler to pair with it to make the total cost about equal with the 12100F locally to you, I'm seeing the 14100F for 76€ which is about ~10% faster than the 12100F

>>102732151
system power consumption

(300W GPU + 150W CPU)/0.90 PSU efficiency = 500W

(300W GPU + 80W CPU)/0.90 PSU efficiency = 420W

That’s what I don’t get. It’s not making any sense for a 3nm class cpu

Thats full system usage
>>
>>102732143
>amd
You mean Microsoft. AMD can't modify the Windows code.
On Linux, AMD develops the CPU optimizations for their own CPU, and hence performance is excellent, as you can see here: >>102732091

>>102732148
>relevant to my home PC usage
It is indicative of general CPU performance you doofus. That's what benchmarks are for.
No one runs 3D Mark on a loop 24/7 either

>>102732152
>its not bad
Don't forget it achieves that in a much lower power envelope than the 7000 series. It's actually quite impressive.

>>102732152
>I don't know why anyone would buy the 12 core when the 16 core exists.
At least around here, there's a considerable difference in price between the 9900X and 9950X. Big enough that the increase in performance might not be worth it.
But that depends on the workload of course.
>>
>>102732198
I don't know if you'll even feel a performance increase with a 6800, but hey, whatever makes you happy, try to sell off the 5600x quick though
>>
>>102732214
They probably tuned it way outside of the efficient part of the vf curve to get those high marketing clocks
>>
>>102732185
Exactly. It's a more broad representation of performance.
You actually use your computer, right? You don't just play videogames on it, do you anon?
If you do, go for the X3D, but don't recommend it for everyone when it is slower in pretty much everything else.
>>
>>102732039
Yes. I really don't think the extra heatpipe is make or break difference so get whichever.
>>
>>102732155
>Although what I am worried about is finding a decent motherboard to go with it since from what I hear trying to get a decent mobos for Intel chips is a lot more expensive compared to AMD
For CPUs this low-end you need not worry about that. Whatever potato board you can find at lowest cost is still more than adequate (as long as it has enough USB ports, Wifi, etc. and whatever other features you need).

>>102732162
He seems to be on a very strict budget, and also Greek prices are not great, the 12400 is like 21€ more. If he can afford the
98€ I agree it'd be a vastly better chip though.

hi gents, i need an am4 board
the only reasonably priced x570 options i have are these 2 second-hand:
>msi mag x570 tomahawk wifi
>gb x570 aorus elite (45 usd cheaper here)

i know both have great vrm, and on paper basically everything else I need, but is there any feature I might miss if i just get the aorus?
>>
Both the MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk WiFi and the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite are solid choices with excellent VRMs, but there are a few differences that may matter depending on your specific needs:

Key Features Comparison:
Wi-Fi and Bluetooth:

MSI X570 Tomahawk WiFi: Comes with built-in Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.1. This can be crucial if you plan to use wireless networking out of the box.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite: No built-in Wi-Fi. If you need Wi-Fi, you'll need to purchase a separate PCIe card or USB adapter, which could reduce the price advantage.
USB Ports:

MSI X570 Tomahawk: Has more USB 3.2 Gen2 ports on the rear I/O (2 x Type-A, 1 x Type-C).
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite: Slightly fewer USB 3.2 Gen2 ports (only 1 Type-A).
BIOS Flashback:

MSI X570 Tomahawk: Supports BIOS Flashback without needing a CPU installed. This can be handy if you need to update BIOS for future CPU support.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite: Also has Q-Flash Plus for BIOS updates without a CPU, so both boards are equal here.
LAN Port:

MSI X570 Tomahawk: Comes with a 2.5Gb LAN port.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite: Has a 1Gb LAN port, which is sufficient for most users but could be a limitation if you need higher-speed networking.
Audio:

MSI X570 Tomahawk: Uses Realtek ALC1200 audio codec.
Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite: Has the slightly older Realtek ALC887 audio codec, which provides decent sound but isn’t as high-quality as the ALC1200.
Summary:
If you need Wi-Fi 6, faster LAN, or slightly better audio quality, the MSI MAG X570 Tomahawk WiFi is the better option despite the price difference. However, if these features are not a priority, the Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite is a great value, especially considering it's $45 cheaper.

If you're on a tighter budget and can live without built-in Wi-Fi and the other small improvements, the Aorus Elite will serve you well.

my new x870e board is working great so far. I definitely think my x670e board is a pos lemon that I should have replaced a long time ago now.

It was supposed to have "rentable units" which would combine the p-cores together to make larger cores for single thread tasks that would be more performant.

The thing I really don't get with intel is why they haven't came out with a big L3 cache cpu like amd since they did it first on broadwell a decade ago.

Asrock x670E pro rs, x870 pro rs, basically take any asrock B650E or X670E or x860(E) at the price you are willing to spend is my suggestion.

Buildzoid used Asrock B650M HDV M.2 to do crazy things. Asrock linuep at your budget, more than B650 or B650M is will do the job.

With such little power consumption in your case it very likely does not matter at all, there's barely any heat there so if you have SOME airflow so the thing doesn't slowly cook itself in a sealed case or some shit it's going to be perfectly fine.
>>
>>102735334
You're likely fine for a 650w even, but yeah 750w should be optimal.
The only potential issue is if you slap a fat cpu & gpu into that thang in the future

>>102735334
Get the 109 euros one anon, 850 is the new 550.
>>
>>102735167
The meta might be to mount the GPU vertically with a riser then. Front and bottom intake, Top and back exhaust.
>>
>>102735164
Not really, its the same performance with much less power consumption.
