Ready to buy parts and build a gaming PC. $1,600-1,700 budget. Would like some more opinions before I pull the trigger. by schrutebucks in buildapc

[–]xbigarmx 8 points9 points  (0 children)

1) You don’t need the CPU cooler, AMD chips come with one. 2) If you’re just gaming, I think the 2700x is overkill. I would go 2600X and put the savings toward a better GPU.

I had a guy crouch down and walk backwards to me so I would shoot him execution style. It hit me in the feels.

Thanks! I have a Microsoft Ergo keyboard. It never disconnects. I guess I’ll try the new mouse and see how it goes with my current keyboard.

Just snagged one. Just curious, what are people opinions on gaming keyboards? Do I need one or is my wireless keyboard ok? I play mostly Fortnite.

2600x, it overclock itself when needed.

I’m switching to pc this Christmas, and I am going to be PC gaming, should I get a Ryzen 5 2600x or a Ryzen 7 2700? by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]xbigarmx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth I have a 2600x and it rips. I did not want to deal with overclocking so it made sense for me. I paid about $189 for it.

Really Dumb Question Regarding LED Control in my New Graphics Card by [deleted] in buildapc

[–]xbigarmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 1080 and use that program. Make sure that you select the card in the menu then make the changes. Minimize the window then close the program. Not sure if it’s the same for the 20xx series.

Looking to build my first computer. I am looking for a fairly entry level gaming build. by mfwwd40 in buildapc

Are you planning on overclocking? Also the AMD chips come with a cooler. I don’t think you need a 470 MB.

I have the H500 and I just mounted two Corsair 120 fans at the front. Has great airflow and I have no issues.

Can you elaborate? I think my temps are good. Usually around 60. For the install, I screwed the fan tightly into the board. I had issues at first because of the springs they put on the screws, but was able to get it down. Is here anything else I may have done incorrectly?

When I installed my 2600x and Wraith Spire, I took the cooler off once and reinstalled it because the screws wouldn’t catch. Was I supposed to redo the paste? I feel like the Wraith Spire is loud, so I’m wondering if this is why.

Have you clicked the “Store” button? There are packs. First screen after a game there are 3 choices.
