How many w on the source I need for 4060 ți and ryzen 5 5600 and 16gb ram

Bought a B650E-I Mini iTX today for $260. I will order a 7600 to put in it when prices drop to 190-200 again. I fully plan to put in the equivalent 5800x3D of the AM5 platform when they move onto AM6. Hoping to get 10+ years out of this rig. Currently on a 2500k at 4.5GHz.

Hoping AM5 goes the distance and that Asus will have good driver support for upgrades in the future.

Once the 7600 drops again all I need to buy is a GPU. Really torn between the 7800xt Nitro or a 4070 Reference. Currently trying to snag a 3080 or 3080ti on Facebook for a good price.

AMD 7800x3D, 5700X, 5600...you are welcome

I just ordered the 7800x3d for my rog strix rtx 4090 oc with be quiet! case.

Hi, i have a 3070 RTXbut my current intel(R) core i7 - 6700 cpu cant keep up and overworks itself when i play games however i dont ant to have to change my mother board and ram when i get a new CPU is there any low end priced recommendations?

Would it be worth upgrading to an AMD 5800x3d CPU from an AMD 5600x CPU I have an AMD 6750 GPU

He's wearing 2 different socks, my inner monk is exploding.

Great video, thank you! Just picked up the i5-13600k for $270.00 for my new gaming build! Can't wait to get it all put together! As a casual gamer on the weekends, as much as PC parts with all the bells and whistles are so amazing, I was able to keep to a budget, watch all the videos, and get the parts I needed over time for a solid mid range build! Awesome!

Amd for sure , i tried intel for all those years , but i tried amd one and almost both pc are 6th gen but amd beat my i7 intle bertty hard... I would recommend every go buy " AMD "

I have the i7-12700k with 64gb of ddr4 3600mhz CL16 on a msi mag z690 tomahawk mobo...

I have a 3070ti and I feel thats whats holding me back and I do regret not grabbing a ddr5 platform when I got the 12700k but at the time ddr5 was also new and had some problems I was concerned with so I opted to keep the ddr4.
So looks like cpu/mobo/ram wise Im holding off to 15th series or whatever amd releases whichever has better performanxe to price for my needs.

No one talks about i5 13500

whats a good pc build thatll run warzone @ 1080p high graphics at around 120 fps

Nice. I watch these anyway. Have 12400F (family build), 12700KF and 12900KF for our media/gaming builds. Just went with what would make a decent budget banger pc. Coming from 9600K it's been great though gaming on the 12700KF and 12900KF.

I have had 2 amd products in the recnt past and both have presented faults out the box my 5600x constantly crashes a bunch of games but its not a fault its just the combo of cpu and board i picked causing the fault and the amd gpu i had had artifacting day 1. So never going AMD again. Never had 1 fault with intel or nvidia in the past so sticking to what works AMD is a gamble for me. Looking online a LOT of people have issues with AMD cpus but media is simply overlooking this because games that bench well usually dont have issues. Mostly indie games and Fortnite for example have issues.

Hi, thanks for the video. You didn't mention that Ryzen 5 - 7th series are AM5 which means that not only you pay more for Cpu itself but you need newer motherboard, which increases your supposed budget.

What about Ryzen 5 7500F?

Hi man I love your videos I see you're running low on views I suggest you start recording game play video it will boost your views

You showed zero gaming performance instead a geekbench score. That's not relative to gaming. What was the point.

Should I go for the Ryzen 7800x3d, intel i7-14900k or i9-14900k? I see many reviewers saying that 8 cores should be enough but I’m still stuck on which to pick.

why arent you talking about the r5 7500f ??

i'd like to ask some advise. Currently there is a 12700KF in my rig, 4.9/3.9 @1,285V, Z690 board and DDR4 (3600/CL16). my 4090 runs 3x2k monitors, and with nvidia surround i'm mostly playing in 7680x1440. don't want to change MoBo and RAM. does it really worth to me to upgrade to a 13900K/14700K? or the CPU doesn't help at al,l and it would be just a waste of money and wouldn't there be any benefit except the eye candy?

thank you in advance!

the 14th gen cpu's are mid and dont seem worth buying tbh id stay with 13th gen or just go amd imo

Yo james, building a workstation, but on a budget. Could you make a 1200 quid/pound workstation? Itll be 2500 for me lmao, and preferably intel and nvidia. Thanks man, ofc you dont have to.

So much misinformation in this video that I hope people do further research into their CPU choice and don't take your word as gold

WORST RECOMMENDATION I HAVE EVER SSEEN

I am planning to build 14700k with RTX 4080 how's it?

Hey! Will you start including games like Cyberpunk in your benchmarks? Since it is so high specs? Thank you!

I got the 13700k that feels pretty snappy and thermals are under control

Dont buy x3d chips. Yes it looks good on older games but look at the newer games, they perform much better on intel chips. Unless if u bought a new pc to play old games. Other than that, get thr 14700k instead. 400 bucks for an 8 core chip is insanely overpriced.

Crap video knows nothing at all about cpus jeez damn kids think they know it all.

Which budget B760 mobo for 13500? Gigabyte B760M DS3H AX DD4 or MSI PRO B760M-A WIFI DDR4?

i liked my i5-12400 and i dont see a reason upgrade to 14th gen yet

I'm jealous of the CPU prices in this video
R5 7600 is $229 and the i5 13400f is $206 🗿
because in my country the price of CPU
R5 7600 $244 and i5 13400 $243 🤣🤣

no ryzen 7500F? you horrible shill 🙂

is the ryzen 7 5800x still good for gaming.

What was the programme he was using 😊

What would be the recommendation for someone who does primarily gaming and some streaming every now and again? I'm thinking about the 7800x3d and it'll go with a 4090.

Ryzen 7600 is the value deal right now.

It is funny that you compare core counts on the intel side vs amd. AMD will reign supreme in terms of gaming as their cores are all power and not lamo efficiency cores. And clearly you dont know what efficiency cores are as they dont serve the purpose you described. They are meant to help with background tasks, but arent even a fraction of the speed. Ryzen 9 7950x3d with its 16 real cores vs i9 13/14900k with its 8 real cores. Do research before you make a video misleading people.

i just recently put a build together with a 4070 and 13600k and coming from a 2060 and an 8700k the difference is insane

My favorite is the i5-13500. great value

7800x3D simple as that out performs or equals 7950x3D and 13900k 14900k for $300 less if your gaming only it’s the only options unless you don’t care about the money and want best for everything.

Amogus???

I just bought the 5600x from the 2600 it was a HUGE upgrade
