Hey peeps, Pretty soon I am buying a new computer I wonder what your system or your preferred system or parts. Thanks

This is what I have. It will likely get me through another 2-3 years before I think about upgrading anything. A better AMD machine can be built for what this would cost, but I got a silly deal on an open box unit.

• Intel Core i7-8700K Processor 3.7GHz
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070Ti 8GB GDDR5
• 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM
• 1000GB Solid State Drive
• 3 TB HDD
• Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
• 24x DVD±RW Drive
• 10/100/1000 Network
• 802.11ac Wireless
• Bluetooth 4.2
• 1-23inch, 2-27inch monitors

I may end up putting it in a pretty case though.

build something with ryzen pls

my specs are pretty garbongo for how much i spent on a bad prebuilt but i cant time travel
- Intel Core i5-7400
- Stock Cooler
- Asus H310 Motherboard for prebuilts
- 1x8GB + 1x4GB Kingston DDR4-2400
- 1TB Seagate Barracuda Compute
- Asus GTX 1050 for prebuilts
- cool looking asus case even without a clear side panel
- Sketchy Power Supply

peripherals are another story
- Asus VG248QE 144hz 1ms
- HyperX Cloud II
- Inexperienced keyboard build (KBD75, Gateron Clears, Dye-sub OEM Profile PBT keycaps)
- Zowie Divina S2
- SteelSeries Qck+

please dont spend as much money on peripherals as i did

Mine is all rainbow coloured. I'll post a picture later today.

Go with Ryzen CPU. K thanks.

• Ryzen 7 3700X ~ Stock RGB Cooler
• NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 8GB GDDR6
• 32GB DDR4-3000 RAM
• 256GB Solid State Drive
• 6 TB HDD
• 650 Watt PSU
• Microsoft Windows 10 Pro
• Standard Network Card (Good WiFi and Bluetooth but use Ethernet when possible)
• 1 120+ HZ Monitor (Resolution at least 1920*1080)
• At least 1 secondary monitor (Resolution doesn't matter as much but the higher the better)

Is what I run. Highly recommend my components except try and get a Super series RTX card as they have noticeably better power draw and some other stuff.

Ryzen 7 is my next upgrade.

Hmmm, I guess the next CPU is AMD Ryzen. but why preferred Ryzen but not intel?

intel released the same product for like 3 generations. intel only has good single core performance but ryzen is better for literally everything else

Not to mention the cost is far less for nearly the same, if not better performance.

amd is basically god but intel is basically for newbs

What do you think?

1. that 2700x ($300) is heavily overpriced, which is taking a large chunk out of your budget
2. motherboard is too expensive
3. ram could be faster
4. you only need 240 gb of storage?
5. 1660 is underwhelming for a $1000 budget
6. what in the heck is that case

made you two parts lists - one for peak performance, one for aesthetics to make you feel bad about missing out on performance. dont forget peripherals

I am mainly doing video edit and live stream sometime. about number 4 I have extra storage lay around in my house and can be used. I preferred RGB as well. Also, I try under 1,000 dollars or at least 800 dollars.

this one should perform better in streaming and video editing

I forgot to mention that I need wifi as well.

You can either have a card integrated within the build, or go the cheaper route and purchase an adapter from Amazon for $20-40.

Is ryzen better than GTX?

depends.
it's like saying AMD is better than intel when you take their best vs intel's worst and vice-versa.

Yeah good point

There are many things to compare, and it's subjective most of the time. A few factors I look at are:
- price
- compatibility with other parts
- performance
- memory
- additional features
- warranty/age of the card
