[fathirmuhammad37]

im planning to build this systen
gigabyte h81m-ds2
intel core i5 4690
kingston 4gb×2
two hdd's 500gb and 1tb
gtx 960/rx 570

should i choose antec vp500p v2, seasonic s12ii 520w, be quiet u9 500w, or cooler master masterwatt lite 500w?

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

There are two FATAL mistakes in your build:

1. The entirety of your "new" build is extremely outdated, 5-year old build.
2. Do you seriously put a $40 budget on a PSU???

and about the build, i decided to save more and planning to buy a more recent cpu, i'm thinking about intel i5 9400f, but there's also ryzen 5 2600x or ryzen5 3500x, which one is better (for gaming) and future proof?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

Yes as long as it is a corsair cx grey

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

⁸

Yes as long as it is a corsair cx grey

yeah it's the grey one

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

Yes as long as it is a corsair cx grey

btw can i ask you about which cpu should i get?(will mostly used for gaming)should i go with intel core i5 9400f or amd ryzen 5 3500x/2600x?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

2600x

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

2600x

ok then

Have acces to the Ryzen AF?

i dont think so

 

[NightHawkRMX]

Then the 2600 or 2600x is the next best thing value wise.

 

[Vic 40]

Thye might sell it just as Ryzen1600 ,difference might be just on the box. But yes 2600 is good value still.

the one thta they sell here is YD1600BBAEBOX instead of YD1600BBAF

btw what's the different between the "X" and the regular version? Is it like intel "K" chips? but isnt all ryzen cpus are overclockable?

and which one is the best bang for the bucks am4 mobo that supports oc ?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

X series chips are generally just higher clocked versions of non x chips.

For example, a R5 2600 has a 3.9 boost but the R5 2600x has a 4.2ghz boost.

All Ryzen skews are unlocked and ready for overclocking.

Any AM4 motherboard supports overclocking as long as it is not the a320 chipset.

I would reccomend a MSI B450 tomahawk/tomahawk max for overclocking, however a cheaper ASRock B450m pro 4 will also be a strong board and is generally very well priced around $75.

That is the original Ryzen 1600, not that it is bad,but the 2600 is a better choice. Depends on your budget and difference in price what to go for. The 2600 would be best choice.

i actually have enough budget to either buy 1600 or 2600 or i5 9400f. but if the 2600 is the best choice, than i'll go with that one.

 

[fathirmuhammad37]

but if i could ask, why is the ryzen 5 2600 is the best choice compared to core i5 9400f? is it because it has more threads? or just because it's overclockable?

 

[NightHawkRMX]

I would go Ryzen 5 2600 just for the upgrade path to a 16 core and you can even have some fun overclocking.

R5 2600 VS I5 9400f

R5 2600 pros:
Comes with a better cooler ( style, noise, and performance taken into consideration)
Overclockable on B450 boards that cost as little as $65ish
Has an upgrade path to 12 and 16 core CPUs.
Has a more stable framerate.
AMD will still release new CPUs you can upgrade to without a motherboard change, whereas the new Intel CPUs will not be able to work in the same motherboards as a 9400f.

i5 9400f pros:
Likely will have an easier chance working with fast ram above 3200mhz or so, although B and H series budget motherboards limit you to 2666mhz.
Slightly higher average framerate, but due to its lack of hyperthreading it can stutter in demanding games where the 2600 may not suffer.
Has upgrade available to the I9 9900k, which is about the best gaming CPU to date.

hey dude, ok i want to ask, there's my friend's friend, he is about to sell his ryzen 7 1700, he said it's never been oc'd, just normal use. is it worth it to buy 2nd ryzen 7? the price is not too far as the new ryzen 5 2600, it's a bit more expensive

 

[refillable]

How much is that Ryzen 7? As for the motherboard take a look at MSI B450A-PRO MAX. It's pretty cheap and guarantees compatibility for Ryzen 3000.

ok the ryzen 7 is 2.200.000 rp. or abour $135, used
while the new ryzen 5 2600 is 1.900.000 rp, or about $119

ok i think i'll choose the pro series motherboard instead of the tomahawk. cause it's cheaper. or should i just save more and buy the b450 tomahawk max? cause i can't find the non max version here

 

[refillable]

2.200k is too expensive for a used 1700. I can recommend if it's under 1.600k. Some sellers are also selling 2600s for 1.800k. As for the board, the Tomahawk MAX has better heatsink but similar VRM design to the Pro MAX. Both options are fine to me.

what about the memory? which one is the best option

[fathirmuhammad37]

cause a lot of people said that ryzen needs faster ram

 

[refillable]

HyperX 3200 MHz 2x8 kits often sells for 1500k and I don't think you need to pay more than that. You can be cheap like me. Get the RAM I got some time ago, the ADATA D30 3000 MHz. It's only 1.100k. If you get lucky, you can tweak it a little bit. If you don't feel confident then the HyperX would be a better option.

corsair cx is good enough, corsair cx or be quiet system Power 9 is good budget options.
