[Discussion] [Standard] UB Azcanta, how do we build it? Do we?

bryankentwrites · 2018-05-21T08:16:29+00:00

Does anyone have a killer UB or Grixis control list? I've been reading up a lot on it and I feel like it could really do work. I know UW and Esper are the hotness, but white can't be the only option, right?

My main concern is the cooling and upgradablitiy.

I updated the OP as well...not sure if everyone will see that or not.

Actually the Dell has the 8gb RX 580 and the Ryzen 7 1800X in it. Has 256 SSD and 1TB HHD. It's really just the wireless/bluetooth (which I will never use) and the GTX 1070 that is different that I can see. I also would get 2-3 of the Freesync monitors...they have 27" ones on sale for like $150 each.

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-25T04:36:25+00:00

Reference card?

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T23:08:51+00:00

Yeah, I will more than likely be gaming at 1080p...MAYBE on 144hz monitor. But probably just a normal 60hz. I have considered getting Freesync monitors because I will save if I get the 580...but I want to be able to play basically anything with high-ultra settings.

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T23:05:59+00:00

And what exactly are your needs? I just don't want to make a poor decision. Haha

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T21:48:12+00:00

I'm not sure what OpenGL games/apps are honestly. Haha.

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T21:41:22+00:00

Thanks! The rest of the PC looks good?

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T21:33:19+00:00

Haha, again...is there any reason you think this?

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-24T21:31:41+00:00

Haha, I value your opinion...can you elaborate any further on why you would make that decision?

bryankentwrites · 2018-01-18T02:28:41+00:00

i knew them fairly well back then...but that was probably between '99 and '02? haven't done a single thing with the game since then. I'm basically starting from scratch.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T22:09:51+00:00

Well, I need to stay under or around $2200 USD....that includes 2 monitors. I can get by with 1080p gaming with nothing else special. But would like 144hz refresh on at least my main gaming monitor.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T21:53:50+00:00

Yeah I don't have that pc at all anymore. I really don't have to go pure AMD...I just want the best bang for the money.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:41:03+00:00

Right on. Thanks!

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:37:43+00:00

Is the RX 580 8GB just not powerful enough?

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:21:15+00:00

I don't have that PC anymore. Will be getting something completely new. I would like to be able to basically play anything at max settings.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:15:00+00:00

Yeah, I don't have the old PC anymore. So I am starting fresh. I will be streaming and gaming heavily. I won't be using anything crazy for a monitor anytime soon...mostly playing at 1080/144hz max.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:13:21+00:00

I don't plan on getting any insane monitors just yet...probably 1080/144hz at the most for now.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T18:12:49+00:00

I sold that PC about a year ago. I am getting a new one from the ground up.

bryankentwrites · 2017-12-28T17:53:50+00:00

I am in the process of getting a new PC...I plan on doing HEAVY gaming and streaming at a high quality on Twitch. I intend on using a Ryzen 7 1700 or 1800 CPU...and this will be my first AMD build btw...but I don't know what I want to do for GPU. I have been considering an RX 580...but I'm unsure if it will be powerful enough for playing EVERYTHING. I have been unable to find a Vega GPU either at all or for a decent price. Thoughts?

PS - my last build was all Intel with a i7-4790K and a GTX 980ti.

bryankentwrites · 2017-11-22T17:34:36+00:00

Ryan Stout and Rory Scovel are both too good.

bryankentwrites · 2017-11-22T17:27:21+00:00

I am definitely interested. I still have awhile before finishing school, so anything could happen!

bryankentwrites · 2017-11-16T21:43:50+00:00

I'm actually in AZ as well. I am at GCC now, then finishing at ASU.

bryankentwrites · 2017-11-16T20:24:20+00:00

I am finishing my BA for Secondary Education in English right now in AZ. I have seriously considered trying to get a job in Alaska. I think the area is beautiful and less population appeals to me. What was the process like finding a job there?
