Hey, thanks for your message. Sticking to a budget is definitly something i should keep in mind.
I actually checked the case again and it wasnt even the right one. I really like the Meshify, but i guess almost every case from fractal design looks nice. I shifted around some parts from my build and i have the pc with the ryzen 7 (non x3d) and the RX 6900 XT under 2k. What do you think about it? here
I looked at a comparison of the two Ryzen 7 and they seemed very similar. I guess if I wanna stick to the 2k€ I will just get the cheaper one
Nice build, I didn't think you could add a ryzen 7 in that budget, but I realized that the video card I added was way more expensive than it should be.
Something to look out for, that case if I remember correctly is a bit short, and I think you might have problems with the new video cards which are quite large, you would have to check compatibility, but I think the numbers that web pages shows, are without front fans.
Now I made some changes to the build, tell me what you think, I think there will be some good surprises in this new build, I went over 15 euros, but there are options to lower it. For example, the MoBo that you send is cheaper, and there is also a good seasonic psu for 100 euros (semi modular)
build
here is the updated list.
is that psu also good? I think its kinda awesome that we got everything into the budget and found some improvements :D thanks dude
A year ago there was a drama with the gigabyte psu exploding, I don't know how they are nowadays. With the 6900 xt is recommended a 850W psu, I imagine that 750W is enough, but sometimes it's better to be sure.
The psu brands that are recommended are seasonic, corsair and evga(of course there are more brands recommended, but these are always my priority), If I remember correctly the corsair ones are really seasonic with a rebranding.
With the case, remember to check if the video card will fit, I see it has 5 mm of free space, but try to make a double check.
I think I heard about the PSU drama. I might choose the seasonic one then. I just thought that the estimates of PCPartPicker actually help with choosing an PSU, which was around 520 w and if I have a bit more than that it should be enough.
Hmmm only 5 mm free space is kind of a thight fit tbh. If something is a bit off, the slot for the GPU for example, then it won't fit xD I just really like the case, but I might change for a roomier one
It is good to use the estimated wattage and increase it by 30%, that is useful to be safe, so 750 should be ok, BUT the thing is, amd official recommendation, says it is better to use 850 watts for that gpu. Here the link
The seasonic PSU that I recommended in one of the builds, I think it would be good for you, as long as you do not mind that it is not modular, if what you want is a modular psu, in one of the builds, I think there is a corsair 850w gold certified.
The case, if you are looking for a white one, as a personal opinion, I think the one I recommended in one of the builds is a good fit (Fractal Design Pop Mini Air MicroATX), it seems to have good airflow, white and the video card should fit with room to spare by 25 mm.
I just read up on what modular PSUs are and I think a semi modular or (if the budget can hold it) a modular would be better.
I dunno, it seems like they are almost always better if you can afford it
Yeah, in my opinion I don't value so much if the psu is modular or not, I'm more of a functionality over look/ease of use kind of guy, but if it's your first build, yes it might be good to go for a fully modular one.
I did a quick search and found 3 that might be useful for you and stay close to budget (850w and gold certified): -SeaSonic FOCUS GX full modular 135 euros. -Corsair RM850e (2023) fully modular 130 euros. -SeaSonic FOCUS semi modular 110 euros
I think that with any of these 3, you would not be making a mistake.
Thanks, I think I'm kinda set on what build I wanna buy. I don't think I will buy it right now because I still need to save up a bit but I will mention you in my post so you can have a look :)
And who knows, maybe the x3d CPU is until then so much cheaper that I can upgrade to that as well :D
Nice! I will be waiting
Yea, with this pc market, everything could happen hahah
