As someone who bought a pre built and trusted the seller to not screw him over, I like this. I’ve been studying like crazy learning anything and everything about PCs. So I know more about what you’re saying now. But if this was me day one watching this video, I would still be a little lost personally. Mainly cause my brain always needs to know how stuff works. So maybe going over megahertz and vram, more technical stuff in some depth would be good to add. Probably doesn’t apply to majority of people starting out, but you have to learn what that stuff is eventually. But other than that. 9/10 video. Super duper sick.

One thing to note on the PSU especially the Corsair RMe - as I’ve just had to return one is to check the # of PCIE cables supplied so that if you’re pairing it with a beefy GPU you don’t have to use a split cable with 1 end unattached next to the single PCIE cable. It was triggering.

Hi Marcus. I'm looking to a massive update from an old HP compaq i5 4th gen with 12gb and a low profile 1050 ti. I'm thinking a 12400f, msi b760-p ddr4 with possiblity an intel a750. I have some new ddr4 ram 32GB 3200 cl16 and I'm trying to control the price.

6800 xt. The 7700 xt competes with the base 6800

[@Herringboner]

6800XT. 16gigs VRAM. Nails everything in 1440p. I bought mine for 500. Can be had as low as 400. Gave my sone that card as i stepped up to 7900XT. Wife inherited his 3060 when i built her new PC

Pretty sure the 7700XT was shoe horned in to compete with the 4060TI.

6800xt personally. Better performance and more VRAM. 7700xt may save you some power usage though, and has better encoding I believe.

[@ColiNoob-x5c]

I have an B650E-F ASUS Strix MOB and have read that DDR5 6000 MHz is recommended for the x3D chips. Would it make sense to buy faster RAM for a 9800x3D? I'm building my first PC myself and am curious.

We will test, but unlikely. The more cache it has, the less difference fast RAM will make

[@John-t5q4h]

You can check that in the pc part picker website. That Ryzen 5 paired with a 4060 should run smoothly at 1440p, tho I'd recommend exploring options like the 4070 SUPER to secure higher fps for a little more.

[@rcpilot3990]

AIOs are a complete waste of money unless you're overclocking. The cost is not offset by the miniscule difference in cpu temps over air coolers. Not even close.

[@jatinmarcob2128]

Agreed, especially when air coolers work for the vast majority of builds, the only exception (kind of) being really high-end rigs where you're gonna want everything you can get out of your hardware

[@prussell890]

I have an i7 14700kf with a 4080 super, and a 360 aio is important to cool such a powerful chip. Plus aio's look so much better than air coolers 😊

[@EjayT06]

Not all the time. A lot of people definitely get them when they don't need them, instead for aesthetics, however for high-end CPUs it's basically recommended to get a decent AIO or very good air cooler

Honestly I'd get the 4080 super now if you have the money for it, 5080 still isn't coming out until sometime next year and if you're wanting it now, I'd say it's worth it to buy it now. I don't think the 5080 is going to be much better than the 4080 super by the looks of the leaks.
