120p Gamng Spec

[Czajek]

Hello Guys, There is my build, i made few amends after this should be fine, but i'm not sure if this be best build for me, i'll appreciate a feedback

I need PC mostly for gaming and streaming, as well i got ultrawide Monitor which i would love to squeeze about landscapes to have awesome view

as well i would love from this PC to run at Ultra/high for at least 3 years

Thanks for any feedback

 

[Stephen M]

An AMD build would be far better.

 

[Czajek]

My friend told me same, but by personal preference I prefer to go with Intel

Okay, list all the reasons why you think Intel are the way to go.

why spending your hard earned cash on them is sensible...

 

[Stephen M]

There are threads on here looking at the difference between AMD and Intel, well worth reading.

What is your reason for going with Intel.

 

[Czajek]

I like them more as a Company, and as well many people pick 5900 with 3080 RTX, don't wanna be stuck in a situation when is no 5900 CPU but is 3080, so 3080 will go to next person and later be reversed situation
I know about AMD is wee better in prize = quality but I don't mind to give my money to Intel as I said, I like them as a company (hope this don't make people hate me xD)

 

[Gavras]

Have a read through these.

AMD Vs Intel

So some of you aren't aware of the reasons why so many people are heading away from Intel to AMD, so thought it would be important to lay that out for people to refer back to. A lot of you will go to cpubenchmark or userbenchmark to find performance metrics for CPU's. These sites are complete...

What's been going wrong for Intel?

Here's a brief summary of the trials and tribulations of the original chipmaking giant.

additionally, interim Intel CPU out in a few weeks, which Intel admit they are replacing but do not know with what yet.


now with all that information, your mate telling you... you still going Intel?

 

[Stephen M]

It is your choice but if I am giving advice I will not suggest buying inferior equipment.

 

[SpyderTracks]

I would also strongly recommend AGAINST intel, they are awful CPU’s stuck on a 5 year old architecture and extremely insecure.

What's your max budget?

What monitor are you pairing it with? What resolution and refresh rate or make and model if you're unsure?

What kinds of games do you play?

 

[Czajek]

Budget is not a issue as i already spend around 2.5K on this setup, but i would keep it around this price tag, maybe put some more.

My monitor is Legion Y44w-10, 144hz and Resolution is 3840x1200

I play games like Destiny 2, Skyrim, Cyberpunk, Apex, Kingdom come, Witcher 3

So if we said £5000 for the PC? We need a budget to work to.

The 3080 is totally unecessary for that screen, it's a 1080p Ultrawide.

 

[Czajek]

so lets say max budget is 3K

but like i said i would prefer for this PC be long lasting that's why i went for 3080 even if i won't play in 4K, wanna keep high FPS for long time hope that make sense

3080 won't magically improve you're experience over a properly suited card, it's just wasting money as the performance will never be used.

On any gaming system, you match the GPU to the monitor and upgrade it when necessary, that way you actually spend a lot less and get better performance in the long term.

Whatever card you've got in there you aren't going to get over 144 FPS as that's all the monitor is capable of

 

[Czajek]

okey, i See, so what GPU You would recomend? RTX 3070?

[Czajek]

Thank You so much, and as well another Question, Why two separate Hard drives instead of one 2TB M.2? ( i think this 2 TB will be enough for me tbh i got now 1TB HDD + 256 SSD and i cant use all of this space)

Storage doesn’t benefit from SSD speeds, plus SSDs just die when they fail so you lose all your data, an HDD degrades over time so you have a chance to move your data and replace the drive before it fails.
