For less than the 3050 another option getting better with each update is the arc a750 though that 6650 xt is still better. They keep improving and I hope they can keep going to add to the competition for amd and nvidia. Just need good upper and mid cards.

Hello Jason! I'm super excited to say that after months of planning, and many different PC Part picker lists later, I'm typing this comment from my brand new completed build!!! I seriously want to thank you so much for all these videos you've put out! They were absolutely quintessential on my journey. The passion you have for sharing your knowledge is incredibly wholesome, and you make such complex topics very easily digestible. I could not have done it without your help, so thank you! Even though my build may be complete, I'll be sure to continue watching, as I'm sure I can always continue to learn and grow. Thanks again :)

I'm thinking of upgrading my GPU soon, I have a 3070 currently. Deciding between 4070 Ti, 4080, or 7900 XTX, what do you think I should get? (Currently have a 5800x3d)

I also have a same question but I m looking now to buy 7900 XT

[@kelley09162]

I would say either 4070 Ti or 7900 XT. The XTX is expensive right now and while the 4080 is good the 4070 Ti would still be a good upgrade over the 3070.

[@Tornado.X]

@@kelley09162 I'm not a huge fan of the XT simply put, if I could find a reference XTX or Founders Edition 4080 for MSRP then I would heavily consider, but I am mainly leaning 4070 Ti currently. I really like the PNY Verto 4070 Ti, but I have a Hyte Y60 case and it would be a tight fit vertically mounted. Likewise, the XTX reference card or 4080 FE are slimmer and would fit better with the side panel on haha

Really hope that second builder went with a Raedeon GPU cos the Nvidia nametag at that price point is just unacceptable value

Great video, Jason and team. How would that A60 NVME work as a game drive in a PCIe Gen2 slot? Would load times be noticeably worse than my current SN550 in its Gen3 slot?

[@Aaron_Lesse]

That last build really connected with me, since I built my first PC in Aug-Sept. of 2021 and used a white Corsair/ASUS theme as well. I lucked out by getting that white Corsair 5000D Airflow case, like new, for about $86. Then I proceeded to overspend on the air cooler and CPU, which left me with an overpriced 5-year old GPU until I could afford to upgrade to an open-box 3070Ti. But even so, it could still play some games at 4K, including the original Skyrim, Age of Empires 2: Definitive Edition, and Witcher 3.

[@Aaron_Lesse]

I bought the same motherboard too, and $150 is a great deal for it! I paid about $20 to $30 more. Also, I haven't noticed any less performance by using the bottom slot for the GPU, which made room for a Gen 4 NVMe adapter card in the top slot for more m.2 storage.

[@Jasonwkey]

That's how you boost a build. Excellent information throughout. On the all white PSU I agree there is no point sine most case have a psu shroud get the extensions and call it a day

[@djGLCKR]

Not gonna lie, I really appreciate these videos because I keep coming back to them while trying to plan my next (and long overdue) upgrade and try to fine-tune things here and there (actually subscribed because of the deep dive on the setups and how to improve them!). Considering I've been rocking an i3 4330 and a 550Ti since 2014, with the only significant upgrade so far being an MX500 SSD, I need new parts. Some are already set in stone, like going for a 6600/6650XT (unless something new gets released in that price range, just 1080p60, MAYBE 1440p in the far future), or being cannibalized from my current build (monitor, a couple of mechanical drives, SSD, CM Centurion 590 case with GOOD airflow and CM Silent Pro M 850W PSU). My only "issue" is what you referred to as "paralysis by analysis" in your Ryzen 7600X build video, and it's choosing which platform to use. I know AM5 is currently in its early days, and despite the slightly elevated costs on B650 boards and DDR5 RAM, my train of thought leads me to believe it'd be the wisest move with a non-X R5 7600 because of upgradeability in the future (as seen with AM4). That is, assuming there'll be a BIOS update for these current boards to offer support for the next generation or 2 of CPUs, and wait for them to drop in price and get one final upgrade that could last another 5-ish years. Worst-case scenario, go with a 7800X3D by the end of the motherboard's life cycle. On the other hand, I could go and grab a 13400F/13500, or even go budget with a 12400, slap some RAM (DDR4 for budget, DDR5 for 13th gen, MAYBE), a compatible B660/760 motherboard, and forget about upgrades other than more RAM and a new GPU for a decade or so. Considering gaming and some productivity (coding/compiling and occasional video/photo editing) will be the main focus of the build, and again, coming from an old build that will be repurposed for other stuff, what would be the best option: Buy and pray for later upgrades with AM5/B650, or buy and forget with 13th gen/B760? Thanks for the in-depth videos! AM5 build: pcpartpicker.com/list/3N8tDq 13400F DDR4 build: pcpartpicker.com/list/wfWs3y 13500 DDR5 build: pcpartpicker.com/list/h8g4Ls

This is what I would do. For production work you'd want an Intel CPU not AMD. Also you'd want a Non-F CPU. Nvidia is also better for production work but they don't have a good under $300 GPU so I stuck with AMD.

Somehow it still enjoyable to watch these kind of stuffs even after building a PC, gained many insight from this channel but i also realized i made some unwise choices but at the very least i gain the amount of performance i wanted with Ryzen 5 5600 and RX 6600 XT and the aesthetic going on in my PC with majorly white themed PC minus of motherboard, fan, and the PSU cable, and it kinda sucks that the fan i used now dont have the white version sold in my country while this video featuered the same fan with white color.... (using Thermalright Assassin King SE as well)

[@PCBuilderChannel]

So glad you are enjoying! And we can always improve our builds as we learn so I wouldn't worry about it (:

[@skarletice7768]

Just saw this and im going to show them right away right away, you would be surprised how similar our recommendations were

[@PCBuilderChannel]

I'm not surprised! You clearly know what you're doing. Just remember it's ultimately their decision, all we can do is offer friendly advice (:

[@jerrycurls88]

This series is a true benefit to the community. I'm constantly amazed how much money gets wasted on these builds. It's also nice to see 1500 budget building a great gaming pc again.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you so much! It means a lot to us Jerry.

[@moisesandruffles]

Building my pc for the first time thanks for the videos I’m rocking a 4090 with an i7 13700 unlocked thanks!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Awesome!! That's going to be a beast!

[@luisneves210]

Let me start by saying that i love your videos, great job Jason! Now... the only doubt i have is with the 192 bit bus of the 4070ti for playing at 4K, do you think that is the better choice for 4k. What can you say about this? Thank you.

[@fatidicusaeternus6498]

Ada lovelace has more cache which mitigates the lower bus width

[@JJsGA]

My PC started off as a ASUS ROG Strix from Wal-Mart It's been transplanted into a Corsair 4000D Airflow. It's a i5-11400f on a B560 MB, 32gb of DDR4 3200 CL 22, RTX3050 (came with it) upgraded the cooler to a Ncotua NH-U9s and it has a OEM 512gb M.2 drive. It's great for 1080p gaming and with the case I have a ton of room to upgrade parts in the future

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Nice!

[@devonmoreau]

Jason - what GPU would you pair with a Ryzen 7 2700x? Open to new or used, targetting 1440p 144hz gaming. Thank you!

[@SimulaWorld]

Thank you so much for your support. Appreciate from Turkey 🇹🇷

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Happy to help where we can! Best wishes to you and yours

[@PbPesos8]

Wow! You make amazingly helpful videos! Definitely subbing to the channel. I’ve always bought prebuilts because I have no clue how to pick out parts/build but your videos are definitely giving me the confidence to build my own soon. In the meantime I would like to upgrade my current gpu and SSD. Any recommendations for what gpu and 1TB nvme to pair with a Ryzen 7 3700x cpu and a Tomahawk b450 mobo? Currently have an nvidia 1070 gpu and a 750W psu. Currently playing on 1080p monitor but may pick up the 1440p monitor you recommended in the $1200 build. Keep up the great videos!!!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you so much! Hop over to our 13600K build guide, I'd use the same list there for 13700K just with the premium cooling we recommend

[@ItsJoshnic]

Ive been noticing the 6800xt has been going for around $550 vs the 6800 going for around 450 (if you get lucky)-480. would you still recommend the non xt for 1440p ultra/high gaming? I recently put together a build with a 6800, b650/ 7600x (got a combo deal) and was wondering if i should have spent the extra ~$70 for the xt?

[@mr.electronx9036]

I paired the 4070 with my "old" i7 10700k and i was worried about the cpu bottleneck. At 1440p looks like im 100% safe for the next 2 years. Unfortunately, there's no minimum spec rrequirement on the box I remember the old days where you could read what you need for the GPU.

[@katsnow9256]

Great video, always best with cats! Question for new build (and it's really stupid because I just like the light up MSI Dragon) Is the MSI Z790 Edge ddr4 with a I5-13600kf a bad combo choice? And will an 850ps be enough? Haven't bought these last three parts yet, but I have everything else!

[@kelley09162]

Depends on what you're doing and as for the 850 what your GPU is. If you're doing production work you'd want a Non-F CPU aka the 13600k but if just gaming that CPU is fine though AMD would be better. Nothing wrong with that motherboard though.

[@Sedrick1222]

Your Web Cam image looks better, did you change it or change any studio light? Great content btw! :)

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you! We didn't change the camera but I agree the image looks better than usual lol. Maybe we accidentally improved the lighting? We are planing a big studio upgrade later this spring (:

[@joeymadden7456]

Love these videos! Do you have any case reviews coming up?

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you! We need to do a "best cases 2023" video in the near future, its certainly on the list!

[@NoLuv4Hoz]

Omg watching these bad builds get corrected is so therapeutic! It's as satisfying as watching a hoarder's house get cleaned up or a someone poor go from rags to riches. 👍

[@PCBuilderChannel]

So glad you enjoy! It feels therapeutic for me to make them (;

[@PatalJunior]

Got a deal on a SN850 1TB for 125$, a nice upgrade from a SN550 256GB, and SSD prices have been really cheap lately, I've got a 2TB HDD since I horde a lot of stuff, but 1TB is enough for 95% of people, and I would take fast storage over more but slower one any day of the week.

[@monkeh86]

i love how the cat is staring into our souls at the start of the video 😸

[@PCBuilderChannel]

He is wise and all knowing (;

[@tutufnm4895]

Very useful content, fun, and informing, I wanted to know if my rx 6600 is a good combo with my Ryzen 5 5500 or would it be better with the rx 5600xt. Thanks!

[@kelley09162]

The 6600 would be good with your CPU

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Good combo, but if you are buying new and can stretch to 5600 its a better CPU for not too much more

[@techwolfcave]

Thank you so much for your kindness good sir. God bless you and your family. Your video is always helpful. It is somewhat a free education about PC building. You are amazing Jason. Keep it up. 🙏🙏🙏

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thanks Tech Wolf. Best wishes to you and yours as well!

[@williamthomas7509]

I enjoy your posts your energy is uplifting. Now I will stick my neck out ... CPU AMD 9 7900X, ASUS X670E ROG Crosshair Extreme (sealed open box $600), G.Skill Trident Z5 DDR 5 6400 (2X32), EVGA GEFORCE 3080 FTW3 Ultra 12 GB (stole this with an open box at $540), Samsung 980 Pro SSD 1TB Gen 4 (for OS and programs), 2 - Samsung 980 Pro SSD 2TB Gen 4 (storage photos and videos - large 50mb+ raw images, and large video files in raid until edits are finished), 2 - Samsung 870 EVO 2TB SSD, 2 - Seagate IronWolf 10TB 7200 RPM (NAS) ... where did I go wrong (well besides everything ... lol)?

[@kelley09162]

Jason has said X670 isn't worth it and you chose expensive SSDs. Otherwise looks good.

[@bryanprice2800]

Love your vibes. Great video!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thanks so much!!

[@mikeorourke3332]

You should do a video on how to set up RGB settings. I built a computer very similar to the white build last week. So far I've only been able to change the dimm colors. The cooler, case fans, and GPU RGB's I can't figure out lol

[@PCBuilderChannel]

It can be a challenge for sure. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@Willjr2711]

Absolutamente brillante. Gracias por tu magnífico trabajo y entusiasmo!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Gracias! (:

[@iExTr3MeZ]

Thanks for the video and the work you done , but I’m curious if the ryzen 5600 gonna bottleneck the 4070ti ? Because I’m planning to upgrade my 1700x to new cpu that will run fine with 4070ti

[@PCBuilderChannel]

5800X3D or 5700X would be great! Just double check your board has a bios available that will support the new CPU and update it before you swap. See our "how to upgrade your pc" video for more

[@samimermer1982]

I just made a list for my nephew. His 1st one. Parts are on the way. 3600 without cooler 80 euro Be quiet dark rock 2 fx 50 B550 tomahawk 160 Kingston 240gb ssd 20 1tb nvme kingston 60 2tb hdd barracuda 50 2x8 corsair vengeance rgb 50 6650xt merc 365 750watt cooler master mwe white 70(future proofing for upgrades) Be quiet 500dx and an additional fan 120 I know I could have gone for a 7600 or a 5600, but he had a budget for 1k. I found that 3600 for a steal. And for his 1st pc I think I did an awesome job. Edit. I did a seperate drive for ease of use. Partitioning with your 1st build is sometimes a hassle.

[@waderobinson9218]

Thank you! Your last example showed me that you can put new a gen (or only 4070ti- ?) Gpu on AM4 with a 5600x and not have cpu bottleneck

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Its slightly unbalanced and if you can pair it with a 5700X (or for a great combo 5800X3D) that would be better, but it will be fine for gaming and has a nice upgrade path for you in the future

[@Totes_ma_Goat]

I haven't looked at builds in years. But when I upgraded my GPU from the gtx 1070 to the RTX 3060ti, I started looking again. But I think my i7 8700 should be okay for a couple more years. Of course, Intel has changed the cpu chips, so I pretty much have to build another computer when I decide to upgrade the CPU.

[@M1szS]

cant believe i havent even build a pc, yet i instantly knew all of those mistakes (besides sdd) because i actually did my research, also very surprised that it was the same monitor i found for my friend while looking for the best 1440p one

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Nice!

[@ThomasPaine01]

Thanks for another excellent video, Jason!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you Thomas!!

[@adams4075]

PC at 9:25 The I3-12100 does PCI gen4 the Ryzen 5500 only is Gen3. I have a 5600Gen4 and a 3600gen4 paired with a XFX 5700XT Raw 2 (I have 2). A used 2060 at this PC Price gap would be a great stop gap. My go to case is the Focus G. Yah, it has an acrylic window but thats a good thing with little children that are like a pair of tornados in the family room (were one of the pcs are).

[@Tindergate]

Jason! You won't believe what happened to me with the a Strix z790-A DDR4. I had to get it swapped today for the 6th time but it finally works perfect lol This was my first experience with the i7 13700K and it's my first Intel build since 1994. My dark hero that only has 1 hour of use on it is now defective hahaha when I get a replacement for it I will have a 5950X system. I don't know why I ended up with two high end PC's but here we are. I always wanted an amd 6800 or 6900xt so Im gonna get one and slap it in my amd system. My 3090 is going to my Intel! Woooohoo! Im going with a Trident Z 4000mhz ram for the 13700k, xmp overclocks very nicely

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Wow! Thanks for sharing!

[@slimal1]

I'm in the same boat as myplayre8546 (second build)...I prefer getting an nvidia GPU, but only because I need to use the noise cancelling software and the automatic game highlights capture, oh and I've seen quite a few persons complain about Fortnite not playing well with an AMD GPU. P.S.: I remember my first comment on one of your videos months ago...I was defending HDD's as still having their place. But my opinion is changing. P.P.S.: I did this exact thing with the SSD and HDD in my first build back in 2016.

[@pearelectronics3083]

That cooler master cooler is more fit for lga 115X cpus or cheap amX builds

[@Moxxieful]

Another boost my build video? just what im waiting for. thanks Jason

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Hope you enjoyed!! Thanks for watching

[@tonyharrop5567]

Hi Jason. I have a power colour 6800 with only 650w psu. It is a Corsair gold tX-m 2021 series. Should I be worried? Or maybe upgrade? Had no issues yet. My 5600x cpu doesn’t draw much power so maybe that’s helping. Thanks. amazing channel love watching it.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Sounds like it's working fine, but you can hop over to our Best PSU 2022 video to follow the method there to see it you are undersized for your full build

[@jond7754]

Looking to build a 4k pc really the bottleneck I have is my tv is only 60hz. Not sure if I should build a monster 4k pc and upgrade to a high refresh monitor later. Or build high FPS 1440p pc and get a monitor to match now. Trying to keep around 1500ish but I got patience if I gotta save up for more. I’ve never built a PC so I have no idea what a reasonable expectation for the budget would be. Also the Wife would like to be able to do VR. Happy Wife, happy this build might actually be approved by her

[@brads2041]

Really liked how you worked out that $700 build

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you! Hopefully its helpful to builders with that budget

[@jimmycullen6399]

Hey Jason, great video! I was wondering if the rx 6800xt was a good gpu to pair with the i5-13600kf. I have seen it on and off around $520 on Amazon and Newegg. I also have the Corsair 4000x, and I am wondering if the airflow will be good enough for it. Thanks!

[@kelley09162]

Yes that's a good pair

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Good combo, see our 13600K build guide for more

[@shiizu0863]

Hello! Just planning out my first build (Note: I'm from the Philippines, my budget is about 1100-1300. Some parts aren't available or out of stock locally so that's why I'm not making a build using pcpartpicker yet). I play games at 165 Hz with such as low performance games such Val, Overwatch though I plan on the excessive setup for AAA games such as God of war, Elden ring, Miles Morales etc. I also go for mobile game emulation which is CPU heavy. I also plan to live stream casually with it. Maybe go for an AMD card for the upcoming AV1 encodding? I found a used 3070ti and AMD 6800xt for about $473.52 (converted to USD) with a year of manufacturer warranty. This is gonna be a big leap from me as I'm currently using an (laptop) 1050 mobile and 9600k Any tips or advice you have? Thanks!

[@zInslanex]

Great video! 👍 How do you remember all the PSUs in which tier they are? 😮

[@hardwaretounsi]

because the psu market is fucked and only like... a dozen psu has a price that makes sense so it's easy to remember that dozen... It's sad honestly.

[@PCBuilderChannel]

At this point I do have a lot of them memorized but I also double check the PSU Cultist list. See our Best PSU 2022 video for more (;

[@euangrozman3671]

I watched so much pc builder I’m beginning to see mistakes Damn, love the video though especially the earthquake awareness part but I’m asking are you going to make best budget pc for this year since I’m trying to find the best bang for my buck for my first pc and I’m not in the us so a little tough

[@PCBuilderChannel]

So glad you are enjoying! And yes we will be covering more budget builds

Would the NZXT T120 Air Cooler be good enough for the i5 13600K cpu? Building my first pc ever, and im not that experienced, thx. Subbed 👍

[@kelley09162]

I think so, but for that price you could get the better AK620.

[@typical2726]

Keep up the great content!

[@PCBuilderChannel]

Thank you! We will sure try (:

[@volcalstone]

I need a good solid case for my 4090 Suprim Liquid. I want the Y60 but at the same time I want a dedicated intake side. I know there are bottom fans too but I'm not sure if that will be enough. I will be using another 360mm AIO for the CPU as well. I want the Fractal North but it's OOS.

[@kelley09162]

Well one newer case getting a lot of good reviews is the Phanteks Eclipse G500A. You'd just need to add another case fan to the rear as it doesn't come with one.

[@adams4075]

I have a X570 MSI Gaming Edge wifi I bought the pair with the Ryzen 3600. (The X570 was the only 500's board available when that CPU was launched) I now have a 5600 paired with a RX 5700XT Xfx Raw 2 (fans to the max, I use noise cancelling headphones) I got silicon power 32GB 2x16 for $70.88 total this setup just rolls anything I play. (or want to)
