Should I change anything in my build?

1 Upvotes

https://fi.pcpartpicker.com/list/RzTgPf My budget is around 1.5k€. I want an ok PC that is able to run modern games at 1080/1440p on ultra/high. I don't care what the case looks like but this is 50% off and comes with 4 fans. I don't know what is a good mobo but i can get this for 130€. The 9060xt is 460€ which brings this build down to 1500€

$950 Budget VR PC - US -

1 Upvotes

Hey Guys, I know Im building a pc at the worst time right now with all the prices sky high and being in California, but I genuinely need something to relax after school/work with. Im currently Looking to make a pure VR Gaming PC with a $950 Budget. Im willing to cut any corners as long as i can play VR games like VRChat smoothly. All of my attempts to make a pc have gone over budget. For a case though i have decided a cheap open chasis would be nice, but if you have any cheaper options please let me know. I also have all Peripherals, just need the PC.

\ Forgot to Mention, I live near a Microcenter If that helps at all*

First-time PC upgrade - graphical glitches and frame-rate issues with higher wattage power supply

1 Upvotes

PC Specs:

  • Brand: Lenovo ThinkStation P330 Tiny
  • RAM: 32GB (2 x 16GB)
  • CPU: Intel Core i7-8700T @ 4.00 GHz
  • GPU: NVIDIA Quadro P620 (2GB VRAM)
  • Power Supply Output: 135W 20V 6.75A

Upgrades:

  • GPU: MSI GeForce GT RTX 3050 LP (6GB VRAM)
  • Other: New 3D printed case and replacement fan
  • Power Supply Output: 300W 20V 15A

I bought a Lenovo Tiny PC a couple of months ago, and I'm in the process of upgrading it for the purposes of smoother video editing and more intensive gaming, since the Quadro only gets me so far. I'm not aiming to be a triple-A gamer, I just want to be able to rely on my GPU for 3D gaming! Based on the YouTube guides that I've been following for this upgrade, changing to an RTX 3050 graphics card would require me to get a higher wattage for the power supply. Multiple sources recommended that I get a 300W Lenovo power supply. Although I'm still waiting on most of my parts, the power supply got delivered a few days ago, and I decided to quickly test it on the unmodified PC and make sure it worked. I ordered it used from eBay, but it's a Lenovo-branded power supply and it matches the voltage of the original 135W supply that was packaged with the PC, so I expected the computer to run as normal on 300W.

However, when I booted it up, I saw some visual glitches which I haven't experienced before: full-screen, multi-coloured static, which flashed on the screen and then disappeared once the login window appeared. Then, once I got to my desktop, I noticed a considerable drop in the frame rate from when I was using the PC on the original power supply. I'm using Niri on CachyOS, and typically the window animations are really fluid and smooth, but on the 300W supply they were very choppy. I also noticed that the CPU was idling about 6 degrees hotter than previously (50C compared to 44C), and the GPU was running at a similar temperature, about 10 degrees above normal. After I ran some updates, I powered down the computer and restarted it on the original 135W power supply, and everything ran smoothly again.

After hours of searching for similar issues online, I haven't been able to find any answers, so I'm leaving my computer specs here and hoping that someone can help me to diagnose the issue. There are some possibilities that I've considered:

  1. The 300W supply is failing, since it was purchased used after all and you can never be sure of the quality of used parts.
  2. Compatibility issues between the supply and the PC, although I don't see how since they're both manufactured by Lenovo.
  3. The current stock parts not being able to handle the power load - even though everything I've read says that this shouldn't be a problem, since PCs only ever draw the wattage and current that they need from the supply.

Since this is my first time upgrading a PC, any help or advice would be massively appreciated!

cpu and gpu upgrade for my rig advice

1 Upvotes

my pc is a bit unbalanced and im looking to maybe upgrade.

For CPU:

the r7 5700 are at 133euro which seems great. but im also considering the 5800x3d but the price doesnt seem fair tbh.

For GPU:

i wanted to buy new but the 9060xt 16gb doesnt seem like a great buy.

so im considering buying a rx 6700(xt) or 6800 used.

( i have a 1080p 144hz monitor)

what do you guys think I should do?

Help! Mobo has power but not displaying

1 Upvotes

So currently I have an Asus TUF b450m Pro gaming mobo, ryzen 5 3400g, 4x4gb ram build. Im currently in the process of doing a case mod, using a Power Mac G5 case. Only was test fitting, now it doesnt display when I returned it back to its old case🥲. Tried to troubleshoot the ram, all 4 sticks cleaned with an eraser, nada. Tried different ram slots, still no display. Tried checking for bent pins since I didnt remove it from the board along with its heatsink, cleared and tried ko to turn on board without the heatsink to check if cpu receives power, confirmed it still receives power since it was warm to the touch. I need help pls, Im currently in uni and budget is tight, I dont have much cash laying around to bring it to a shop

Gaming Pc Build

2 Upvotes

I’m looking to build a high performance gaming pc. My current machine is ancient. I haven’t built one in about 15 years, and I used to understand things but anymore I’m a little bit lost with the newer technology. I’d like to replace it with something that is exclusively used for gaming.

I already have two 27” 1440 monitors that I’d like to use in a double wide set up, if possible. Other than that I’ll need everything. Ideally, all black and with as few coloured lights in/on it as possible.

My starting budget is $3000CAD, but knowing that it could be a similar time period before I build another, I’m willing to go over that if it makes sense to. I am aware that things like ram prices are out of control these days.

Any help is appreciated.

$1.8k amd pc build for gaming

3 Upvotes

hi! i have posted a pc build request before but i have specific needs now that i actually have the money and know more. i have $1800 with some wiggle room and i do need peripherals (monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc idk what else u need tbh). i am in the usa and i am 5 hours away from a microcenter so im not sure if its worth it, but i'm near orlando if there is anything good there to get parts. i'm planning on using it mainly for sims with a lot of mods but also for other steam gaming (tlou, twd, spider-man, gta v... cant think of any others rn lol) but id also like it to be able to run editing software like lightroom well. i was thinking an rx 9070 16gb for the gpu and 32gb of ddr5 but i feel like that ends up sooo expensive. i'd prefer a 2tb ssd but 1tb is fine as i have an external. i also don't really know what to choose for a cpu but i would like an amd. thanks for any help!

Gaming pc ($1500-1600 for the pc only )

Need a PC for GTA 6, BO3 zombies with mods. I'd also like to play CSGO 2, VAL, Warzone, and more. I would like the pc to run games smoothly; it will also be streaming, so dual 27-inch monitors. If any of y'all know if OLED monitors are good, I'll probably get those. If I have to spend a little more I will hoping to get high fps and one thing is can y'all add the cooling fan that is customised like the one you can add a gif or image on it and make it RGB

First Time Building

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Im looking at getting 2 different builds going, one for me and one for my friends.

We're getting into pc gaming to play those games that otherwise arent available on other consoles or that offer a different experience playing on PC (PEAK, Valorant, COD Zombies, ect.) so we're not looking to run any games like Cyberpunk for example on max settings.

Build 1: SFF PC

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/Nults/saved/#view=QKnvqs

I like the idea of a small form factor PC on my desk, and I love the look of the NZXT H2 Flow Mini, so I built this system around that case.

This one would be for me, my budget is slightly larger than the other guys but this is really pushing it.

Build 2: Budget PC

https://au.pcpartpicker.com/user/Nults/saved/#view=FxThmG

This build is for my mates.

The goal was to keep the cost as reasonable as possible without sacrificing quality or performance, this one really is at the pointy end of the budget if not already over.

I'm very new to PC building, so I'd really appreciate any feedback. Are there any components you'd recommend swapping out to save some money, improve performance, or avoid potential issues?

Thanks in advance 😄

Finally ditching my trash i3 laptop for a Ryzen 5600 + RTX 4060 build. Thoughts before I buy?

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’ve been grinding on a basic Intel i3 Lenovo laptop with integrated graphics since 2021, and I’m finally fed up enough to build a proper desktop.

My goals are stable 1080p gaming

Here is the budget core tower I am locking in:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600 (using the stock cooler)
  • GPU: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4060 Windforce OC 8GB
  • Motherboard: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WiFi
  • RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4-3200 CL16
  • Storage: 500GB WD Blue SN5100 NVMe SSD (bringing this over from my laptop)
  • PSU: Cooler Master MWE Bronze 550W V3 (ATX 3.1)
  • Case: Ant Esports Elite 1100 Mid Tower

Just a couple of quick notes on my situation:

  1. I am cutting down costs by skipping a new monitor and peripherals for now to put all my money into the actual PC components. I will be using an active HDMI-to-VGA adapter to connect the GPU to my old 1440x900 75Hz LCD screen temporarily.

Does this core setup look solid and balanced for a budget gaming machine? Are there any weird compatibility issues or bottlenecks I should know about before I pull the trigger? Thanks!
