Gaming PC Builds

[AeroNinja]

The thing is I don't know which parts belong to which because on some motherboards you can't put some things that are not connected to it etc.

This system should run fine.

[AeroNinja]

So if I build this then Im good to go for what I wanted? Cause then Im ready to pay it actually.

[Olafson]

Yes.

[AeroNinja]

Nice thanks.

Cheaper than I thought. Because i had another build and it costs me now just the half of it. Thanks for all the help olafson.

Against better judgement I got a 2700x build. It was a little over 1200 which is really insane for the workstation load I'll be putting on it and the components I got. I just wish I could have gotten a 1070 but the price jump from a 6GB 1060 to the 1070 is insane. I wanted the 8700k but I plan on using this a lot more for editing and rendering then I do for just games and it's just way more expensive to go the intel route.

I personally would have adviced against buying a new build right at this moment unless you absolutely have to. According to some rumours, Nvidia will reveal and launch their new 1100 series this year. Even if you don't want an 1100 series, its release would push the prices of the 1000 series down.

Besides that, the cryptocurrency bubble is still going on. Will it pop? I dunno, but I don't need to upgrade my build right now which allows me to wait and see what happens. Who knows what might happen the next few months.

The ultimate uncertainty there is why I just bit the bullet and got a 1060. I figured if the bubble does pop / 1100 series comes out, then I'll just grab a second 1060 and SLI it up for a cheap price.

Correction: 1060 doesn't support SLI. rip

[joer5835]

Nvidia is slowly dropping SLI support all across the board and very few games actually support it nowadays. You get far better performance with a single, strong card than two in SLI config.
