Opinions?
Thanks in advance.
Oh, and could i reuse my psu? A nox Hummer 750w.
I also would be reusing my ssd and hdd. And of course the case.

If you can get faster RAM, even better, but the build is fine. Anyways, isn't there any other assembler for the Vega 56 with a not much higher price? Some people says that Sapphire is fine, some not... Personally, PERSONALLY I feel like I have seen as many threads about Sapphire cards dying as all the other brands cards together.

 

[john1234567]

Okay 3200 is enough for RAM?
The saphire card has a really great deal and i cant pass It u.
Im thinking Also about an msi x740 gaming pro so i can overclock.

After 3000 you get finishing returns.

Would swap to a 2600 and just OC it.

With Ryzen, the faster, the better, just don't keep pushing the budget if the performance per dollar of the RAM starts worsening too much. Go with the Sapphire, and you can overclock with the B450, but almost sure that the x470 will be better for that, although you won't need to overclock the CPU unless you go for a >100Hz monitor.

 

[LordVile]

You don’t get much more from an X board. The chips are limited to not much over 4 by the process they’re made on rather than anything else.

 

[Phazoner]

Anyways probably any X470 will have more (so better) phases to manage more adequatly the voltages.

 

[LordVile]

Doesn’t really matter when you don’t need to pump much through anyway. Only reason to get one really is more USB and prepping fkr Gen 3

 

[john1234567]

From What i know gen 3 Will still be compatible with am4 motherboards.

 

[LordVile]

Yeah I’m saying Gen 3 isn’t on the same process so won’t have a cap due to it therefore you can go more extreme with the OC.

 

[john1234567]

In the end i have decided to go for this parts.
https://pcpartpicker.com/list/dZMBtg After a bit of reading It seems there isnt much point in ocing the r5 as of today.
Do you think this Will last me for at least 5 years?

 

[LordVile]

Yes there is a point of OCing an R5 by getting a 2600 and using the spare cash to get a decent tower cooler. Keeps it over 4Ghz rather than relying on boost, cooler which helps with boost even if you’re not OCibg it and you might even be able to push it to 4.3/4.4.

Remember the “boost” clock isn’t all Core

Great build IMO
