12 days ago I built my very first PC, thanks to your videos and a couple other channels. It was indeed a Ryzen 5600x build and I am so happy that most of my hardware matches your recommendations spot on, this means you are a succesful teacher!
Love it when the timing is good! Best wishes on your build and don't forget we have our "how to build a pc" step by step build guide and "after you build" setup guides if you need (:
been almost 2y now. 5600x MSI 550 MPG plus some decent 3600 dimms and SN850 from WD. Flawless setup, one of the best I ever had. And it's tiny, NR200 from CoolerMaster
Finally got all my parts ready for my first ever build. Been running your step by step vids over and over to get familiar. Will be putting it together tonight. Thank you for all the great content and thanks to commenters who have also helped. 🤞🏽
@@Aaron_Lesse stayed up way passed it. Was very scared to mess things up which made things take much longer (also needed better lighting) but in the end, success was achieved. Thanks you for reaching out.
One thing to note for Arc users or those interested in Arc: Cyberpunk 1.62 introdeced Intel XeSS upscaling, so with my A770 I now get 96fps AVERAGE at 1440, with highs of 130fps. Even without upscaling I now get over 65-70 fps average at 1440.
I'm watching this on my Ryzen 5600 PC that I built in December with lots of help and guidance from this channel, and it slays 1440p gaming with a 6800XT Taichi and I'm really happy with it. Awesome stuff Jason, I always look forward to your videos!
I bought an R5 5500 for $66 and an Asrock B550M Pro4 for $78, All brand new. Saved a lot compared to $150 for an R5 5600 only. Pretty solid, cant wait to finish my build
Look man, I never ever support channels for single times occasions like this, but the effort, the clear explanations, and the insane recommendations are just worthy of a sub, a like, and more!
I just did my first build ever in the deep cool case and it was super straightforward. Definitely recommend. Also thank you so much for your videos. You helped so much when it came to picking parts and building the pc.
@PC Builder thank man. Next time you talk about this case you might wanna also add that it comes with a anti sag ledge for your GPU. it really make mes feel better that I've got something holding up my 3 fan 6800 xt! It's a great add on for these big gpus
After upgrading from Ryzen 3 to 5,, I now get a warning upon start up that hardware video acceleration is disabled, and video in lagging. Do I need to upgrade to a video card.
This is quite literally my all white b550 build and I absolutely love it! great video. I paired mine with 32gb RAM, 2TB storage, rog strix b550 whiteMB, RX6600 and the koolink void white case. absolute stunner ;)
@@tilapiadave3234 No need for the shade. A lot of us are super proud of our work, and to see that his build almost exactly matches what the video recommends is absolutely an understandable reason to list the whole build.
@@tilapiadave3234 Are you reading literally any of the other comments in the thread? Tons of them are build sharing, it's what happens on these types of vides. You're upset about wasting time? Stop wasting your time reading this stuff then 🙄
9:24 DeepCool also offers CC560 ATX MidTower with 4 included (Blue)LED Fans with support upto 360mm AIO (Front mount) and bulky 40 series GPU's support (370mm) for just $58 which makes it a good budget option. Would love to get your thoughts on it ❤️
Great build guides! You provide awesome advice and understand the basis for these builds, especially lower end tier components for the budget minded. I recently built two gaming systems based on your videos. One was an individual who does everything EXCEPT gaming on a MacBook. Didn’t care about extra cores or performance as all he wanted to do was play WoW with our guild (which is crap on a MacBook lol). The build I chose lined up nicely with your budget parts list!
Hi Jason. I really like your "FPS first" philosopy. I have my own small gamer build business, and im really aligned with your suggestion for low-mid builds. There is far too many youtubechannels who only consider top-tier systems - and that is not where the majority are. 90% of my builds are in the range 900-1150$ (converted from DKK). Ryzen 5 5600(X) is my all time favorite. Im mainly going with B550, in the cheap end. I do not see the need to pay more for a normal pc wothout OC. You often mention the audio quality, is that really an issue in the cheaper model? Thanks for you :) Cheers from Denmark
I basically built this a few months ago. Upgraded the gpu and ram though. 1300 total and got a 6950xt, 32g of 4600 ram, 2tb 4.0 nvme, a sexy antec case (I've always liked antec since 2006). Mostly because of your recommendations. Thanks
I built a 5600X machine to replace my 3600X audio production machine that in turn replaced my 1700 HTPC machine. So, the 1700 machine is now a ready spare. A 6-core Ryzen is probably all the CPU most people will need for the next three years or so. For gaming, I'd avoid 4K with the 5600. It can do it, but only with a GPU that completely unbalances the system. Honestly, I'd pair it with a used 1080Ti, which can be had for ~$180 US and has the VRAM you'll need to run AAA games at 1080p, and maybe 1440p, with the pretty textures loaded. Remember, you don't actually need a case for a PC -- you can build on the motherboard box and run it that way until you can afford the case you want.
Love your vids. Ended up with a 5700G as I was waiting on graphics card prices to come down, honestly though I'm getting 40fps on some of the harder games so no rush to get a graphics card, as a wargamer/civ/strategy guy who dabbles in 1st person stuff I don't need the super graphics, got 2x 16gb Corsair Vengeance Pro SL 3600mhz optimised for Ryzen chips and 2 M2 HD's a super fast one for the OS and a 2gb slower one for games and honestly, it's absolutely sweet. Plus when I get my graphics card getting a 5800X3D for my Aorus Elite V2 Motherboard would keep things fresh for ages. My first build, powered with information gathered from your good self. Thanks!
Last year when I was searching for references to build my first PC in over 10 years I found your channel and it helped me a lot. Thank you very much for your work! Oh, and I went with the r5 5600 + rx6650xt combo, it was at a great value in my country.
My Main PC I built a year ago has AMD 5600X, MSI B550 tomahawk mobo , 2x1tb M.2 SSD, 32gb 3600 dimms, RX 6600xt gpu, 360mm AIO, fitted in the Lian Li 011 dynamic evo with 10 fans . So I basically hit the right setup! All based on your video guides. Happy as I get 200FPS playing DOOM 2016 @ 1440P. the aussie prices for AMD CPUs are 128$ Usd for 5600 and 158$ usd for 5600X . The AMD 5500 is only 90$ usd
@@DavidUnderhill valid take i respect that alot🙂🙂, same happened to me years ago with a game called paladins and skyrim lol😂, doom, d eternal and gta v too when i think about it,btw mister... feel free to contact me when u decide to upgrade, a giveaway or reasonable pricing from a used pc would be perfect... u don't wanna know what are the prices here in the 3rd world😬, if you up to do so please don't think twice, id be glad to here ur offer👍.
2 weeks ago I built a very similar machine to what you show in the video. RX 6700xt, ryzen 3600x, 16GB 3600MHz CL17, b550 aorus Elite, Endorfy Regnum 400, 1TB m.2 Kingston KC3000 and 512GB Kingston SATA from my old laptop. Tested it on 4k ultra in Borderlands 3 and it ripped average 43fps
Built my 5600X system in February, but used your guides and others for a lot of guidance. Went with an RX580 I got for $100 on ebay; most likely will upgrade it with next year's tax refund. MSI B550 Gaming Gen3 mobo, 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX sticks, 1TB WD Blue M2 NVME SSD and a 1TB WD Blue SATA SSD, Thermaltake 600W PS, Thermaltake Assassin X cooler and a Cougar M330 case (needed the 5.25 external bay). Got 32GB RAM since I do more than gaming, like modding Kerbal Space Program. :)
Oh yeah, 32gb should be considered standard now unless you're going the ultra-low budget gaming route. It is probably overkill for a lot of games, but once you add 3D modeling to the mix, the more RAM the better,@@roryc6173
Thanks for these videos! I'm building my first PC and your advice has been excellent and informative. I'm pretty much cloning what you outlined here, and it feels good knowing why these components are the best for this build.
The 5600 seems like an insane value CPU right now. I’ve talked to a bunch of friends looking to build a new build and not a single one is doing anything that needs anything more than the 5600.
I've had my eye on both the RX 6700 XT (though I'm going used) and that ID-COOLING cooler you mentioned for a while now. I'm currently running on a 5600G and saving for a GPU, so when I get enough to buy the GPU, I'm going to toss that cooler on as well, just because I'm not 100% satisfied with the cooling of the stock cooler. Benchmarks saw it leveling at pretty strong temps, even before I overclocked it, so I just want to make sure I'm prolonging the lifespan of my CPU.
@@zayn3296 This is what I currently have in my PC, though in retrospect I might would have changed a few things. The RAM is completely for aesthetics, so you can definitely choose something cheaper if you want to. I originally went with a Teamgroup 3600/CL18 set but decided I wanted that cool G.skill set after I discovered it lol. The SSD is also kinda overkill. If I were to start over, I would have simply gone with the cheapest 1TB M.2, since gaming isn't really benefitted by speeds faster than what even low tier SSDs can provide. SATA is slower for more money, so I'd still avoid that, but boot up is the only thing you might want a blazing fast SSD for, and honestly, I have 12 seconds to wait for my PC to boot up lol. As far as the motherboard, I selected that one specifically because my monitor needs Displayport. Had I known what I was looking for, I might would have spent a little more for one with better audio, or maybe one with more aRGB headers. But that's just me; your needs might find this board perfectly fine. If you like the case I selected, I do need to mention that it's a tad smaller than even most mATX cases. Longer GPUs may have difficulty fitting, but I've only found a few to be too long. Anyway, that's the full rundown lol. Good luck with your build! pcpartpicker.com/list/CbKWk9
Yes insane value build! My 3090 still bottlenecks my 5600 in ultrawide 1440p! My 5600 runs under 35% usage. Plenty of headroom to upgrade my GPU even further. Thanks for your videos Jason!
Just saying, the % usage on CPUs is not the best metric to say that the CPU is not bottlenecking your GPU. Even a single game thread can bottleneck a GPU and then the CPU utilisation may well be low. In fact, I would even say that, due to the way graphics pipelines work, only a CPU could technically be a "bottleneck", because it is the one that takes place first, runs the gameplay and gives the scene to be rendered by the GPU (draw calls). Therefore, (assuming VRAM is not exceeded, PCI-E connectivity is sufficient and you are not bumping against the engine limit) I think the best metric is GPU utilisation. If your GPU is at around 95-100%, it means, as the last hardware before your Monitor, it is pumping as many frames at it can. If your GPU is hanging around 70-80% most of the time (even if you CPU is not pegged at 100%), this is not ideal, as even a mid-range GPU costs as much as a good CPU+MB+RAM combo.
@@xdinhxchris In VR there is the information from the VR runtime, which shows CPU time and GPU time. When you are developing in the game engine, you also get access typically in a debugging window to CPU time and GPU time. The COD benchmarks I have seen contain CPU/GPU time graphs, which is very rare. But those are usually not exposed to external tools like afterburner and are available for VR games only. Maybe a workaround could be to test the flatscreen game in a VR virtual cinema mode and see what the CPU/GPU time show and even then you will be facing additional overhead from the VR environment rendering on top of the flatscreen game rendering.
I got the Lian Li Lancool 216 RGB case, 5800X3D, EK 240mm AIO, 6800XT, Asus Tuf X570, Trident Z 32gb of ram, 2tb 990 pro NVMe, and Seasonic 850w PSU. Still a beast of a combo and I got the 5800X3D under $320. I do a lot of 3D modeling and PC/VR gaming.
I went 1 month ago with a Gigabyte Aorus Elite ATX v2 + R5 5600 + 16Gb RAM. That combo is super sweet and for EUR 300 you just cannot beat it. Slap a second hand RTX 3060ti for EUR 300 or less and for EUR 600 you got an amazing PC (considering you reuse the case, PSU and storage).
thankyou, i went with ryzen 5600x and got 6750XT (got it for the price of 6700XT), now i am doing live streams gaming battlefield 2042! it can do decent 720p streams. ordered capture card to turn old pc as streaming pc with RX460 2GB.
Im really happy with my 5600x, 3060 ti, 32GB 3200mhz RAM, 1.5 TB SSD build. (However my Motherboard could be better... its a gigabyte b450m s2h v2 but I am not willing to upgrade it since its working just fine). Overall amazing for 1080p and decent for 1440p gaming! Till this day the 5600 and 5600x are amazing for budget and midrange builds.

Very similar performance, in testing with various GPUs there is almost no difference between the two, so I'd take even that $20 and invest it in faster ram, more storage, and especially into a better GPU if that helps. 5600 is all about price efficiency.
I can't confirm that every B550 board is Ryzen 5000 ready, but i can say that the ASUS TUF B550 Pro definitely does. Mine actually came with a sticker on the box and the BIOS was factory updated.
Building a new PC, please comment if this is a good build CPU: Ryzen 5 5600 Motherboards: MSI B550M PRO-VDH WIFI RAM: 2x8GB 3200Mhz SSD: SX8200 Pro 1TB GPU: 7800XT PSU: MSI MAG A650BN going with stock cooler should i go with 7700XT?
Retired my 11 y/o i3 4th gen personal office rig last year for a Ryzen 5600 and I was very happy when I did the switch. Old rig still usable for browsing and media consumption use so it's not meeting the pearly gates of recycling just yet. Have been using the stock cooler in the Ryzen 5600 rig in a darkflash dk431 case with a 1660 Super and it becomes kinda hotter than what I expect when playing BG3 or FFXIV, or when doing some video rendering. 71-75C CPU, 72-75C GPU. Ambient room temp is 25-28C, plus we're in the tropics so room temps can spike up to 32-34C on a really hot day. Much appreciate the recommendations on the air tower coolers. Now waiting for a Deepcool AK500 Digital for the cooler to replace stock. Also got Arctic P12 PWM PST fans to install after stripping all stock case fans as some of them already failed and had to make do with the non-PWM fans from an old PC case just to have airflow. No RGBs which I prefer, with the AK500 Digital the only display/light from within the case. Would also need to tweak the fans speeds too once those fans are set up; insides of the rig was a bit dustier than I expected, so cleaned up recently and did a smoke test. Lo and behold, yep, negative pressure just under the rear exhaust and it sucks air from the top mesh too 😅 PS. Love the cat. :meow:
Before watching this video, I put a lot of stuff in my cart on amazon to build something in the tier class of his budget system (starting around 11:10), and I have to say I'm happy with how mine compares to his in price and parts equivalence. The big difference is what I did with video cards. For my "budget build" (which is just brainstorming right now), I have my amazon cart, and one thing in ali express: an RX580 2048sp card, which is only about 80 bucks. The reason I went with that card is that I have one in the system I made for my brother, and the one I made for my father, and it's working great. I'd rather put a 6600XT in them, but that is between 3 and 4 times the cost (and I figure a GPU can always be upgraded later). So, how did I come to a total of about $680, when "skimping" on the GPU? E-waste! I've been watching a lot of Dawid videos, and his love and hate for e-waste amuses me, so I asked myself "if I were selling this on ebay and had to include obligatory e-waste, what would I include?" An Asus Tuf Gaming 24 inch 165 hertz 1080p IPS gaming monitor, a mouse/keyboard/headphone bundle, a deskpad, an HDMI cord, and a display cord (as both monitor and GPU support display port). Case, motherboard, ram, storage, CPU, GPU, coolers, monitor and e-waste... everything you need to go from having nothing to game on to having a full set, all for $680. And, of course, all built around the Ryzen 5 5600 CPU. This video is great for advice, and for comparing my silly build to. I did cheap out on the motherboard though. An a520 for 70 bucks. But when you look at benchmarks of cards in PCIe 4, 3, and even 2, ports, you realize that despite the significant difference in what the generations are capable of, in real world performance the difference is surprisingly small, so for a budget build I have no problems with it just being PCIe 3.0 (and I may be wrong anyhow. The amazon listing actually claims it has PCIe 4.0, and that the m.2 slots are limited to PCIe 3.0)
The 5600 is a perfect foundation. Built mine 3 weeks ago and I’m not disappointed. Paired it with a RX6600 and gpu does all the grunt work, which is what it’s supposed to do. The cpu doesn’t need to get out of bed, box cooler is perfectly adequate.
It’s also really important to think about what games you play when choosing gpu. I play relaxing tycoon/city builder & transport simulator titles so insane FPS and that extra millisecond to get that snipe shot doesn’t matter to me
Idea for a video, sharing home build tips. My first one is to use an old soft laptop padded case (or similar) as a lazy Susan on a table. It let me use daylight easily turning the case around, so much easier to see small print on the board. The second one is to pre-route cables with easily visible coated white wire fasteners used on food bags and packaging. That way you see what needs attention later but benefit from having things neat. It let me do some routing that would require removing the power supply to squeeze the header through. Cable ties are too committing, so undoable easy twist wire ties will get the job done better than if you leave all the cable management for later. In personal builds, I ummm have lived with panels off or a stack of lose disks sitting next to the case as it was always more convenient than finishing 🙈🙈 This temporary state has lasted for nearly a decade in one SMP server box I had, I literally only put the sides on to move house!! Using old HDD even from laptop is viable, you try out Romex's PrimoCache and allocate some system RAM and an SSD partition as cache. HDD transfer speed isn't the problem it's the constant back & forth. It's amazing how fast games can load (quicker than SSD) because the folders are pre-fetched into RAM after boot.
@@PCBuilderChannel Oh and for comedy effect, your wife might have planned a staycation where you have enforced break. So no workshop, you have to sneak in a crafty build behind her back when she's out 😉😉
immediately clicked been waiting for this one! decided to go with a 5600x but still trying to figure atx or matx..so difficult to understand all the b550 boards..
Just finished a little upgrade. Went from a r7 1700 to a r5 5600x, with that a xfx 6700 xt a Corsair 750 Watt psu. And a lian li 216 case.. im using a cooler master hyper 212 rgb to cooler the cpu, from your recommendation.
Thanks so much for this video, going to build my first pc soon and I'm using the 5600 w a 6750 xt and aorus elite ax v2 So this vid was rlly helpfull tyysm
Nice! Glad we could help. And remember we have our "how to build a pc" step by step build guide and "after you build set up" guide videos on the channel too
Thank you so much for this informative video! Im researching to start my first pc build and looking at the ryzen 5600 so this is absolutely perfect for me
Paired my 5600 non x with an Rx 6750 xt and it is absolutely amazing. So happy with my purchase but would recommend getting the non 50 xt Rx 6700 xt instead. The extra money just isn’t worth it.
This is how a pc build should be presented. It should be built around the processor to make the best out of it. And GPU can be choosed according to your needs.
I still have a 5900X paired with an XFX 6800XT.. I actually just built it a little over a year ago. I have been so happy with Ryzen.. I started with a 1700 Zen 1 then went to a 2700X on an X370 Taichi Board. And I have to say that to this day Zen 3 is still more than enough if you are gaming at 4K. We all have M.2's and SSD's so performance is really negligible these days.. I did what Jason says to do I bought the best GPU at the time for the money, and was able to get the 5900X for the same price as the 5800X so that was a no brainer.. Then I went with a B550 ASRock PG Velocita, in a PHanteks P500A white Just like Jason's LOL.. I did a 980 500gig in Top M.2 and then went with a 1T 970 Gen 3 for the bottom M.2.. I am still very happy.. 4K All Day..
had a super cheap asrock b450 with a ryzen 2700 and rx580. I updated the bios and popped in the 5600 and a 6600xt, and it was a fantastic upgrade. pc powers up to login within 12 seconds. All game play at 1080p ultra at more than 60 fps. Will not need to upgrade for years. And the upgrade cost only $350.
I'm doing small upgrades to my ibuypower pre-built, haven't built a PC since 2002. Thanks for answering my research for recommendation on the deepcool tower fan-i ordered the one with the digital thermonitor. My next project is upgrading the PSU.
Wish this video came out about a month ago…just built my first PC with similar items (5600, 6650xt, Silicon Power 3200 16 GB RAM, different Deep Cool case for same price but 4 RGB fans), but went with slightly larger PSU at 650w and cheaper B450…wished I spent $25 more on better MOBO and kept cost even with cheaper PSU. Either way, still appreciate the videos and knowledge you share. And the learning experience was still worth it for me!
I think that's one of the things that's so appealing about PC gaming. You're never really stuck with a component you don't like. You have the option to swap it out and just keep the other components, unlike with console gaming where it's a package deal. It kills to overbuy though, so I feel your pain on that PSU lol
just build my first pc 1 month ago and picked the 5600x case , prime B550M , 6650XT OC and and 3600 cl16 16GB I'm loving it! great fps and works fine with new games!!!
5600 and rtx 4070 is a match made in heaven for ppl who want high perf with low power draw, 12gb of vram, great perf with raytracing, and great blender render times without bleeding the wallet dry.
I completed a Ryzen 9 5900x build with a RX 6700xt and it is blazing fast. I am using an Asus B550 motherboard but am having a major problem running large external drives (2 to 4 TB) from the USB 3 ports. They keep disconnecting shortly after connection. It makes me leary of using a Ryzen 5000 series CPU paired with a B550 or X570 motherboard of any kind. My second computer would probably be an i7 13700. Intel doesn't seem to have that kind of issue.
I went for the Vetroo V5 cooler for my build...as well as a Phanteks 400A Digital case... Also noticed the bottleneck of the Ryzen 5 5600G on the ASUS X570 MB... Just bought a $25 R5 2400G from a store I trust to kickstart the BIOS flashback... They were just selling testing chips out of the package and with the date of last usage on the plastic CPU holder... As soon as I get this done...this tablet's days are numbered as an all day computer...but might be used for an office computer... Will use the Wi-Fi on my phone to cover the BIOS update...
The 4080 super will bottleneck that CPU a lot. So if you are going to do this drop in a 5700X3D at the same time. See our "how to upgrade your PC 2024" video for more
awesome video as always. Can you please tell me if the N7 b550 is one of those motherboards with better audio youre talking about? I got cheap in a clearance sale and am not sure if i should use it or get a mobo with a better mobo. Thank you!!!!1
Really good video sir, i'm specting to upgrade my pc who has a ryzen 5600x and 3060ti to a ryzen 5800X3D and 4070Ti because i have a good motherboard and don't wanna spend more money on it. Thanks for the information :)
Hi idk if u remember me but I had the cousin with the weird build from the last bmb, but I actually talked him into a 12400 build kinda like what u have here, your video helped convince him
Would a set up like this have any issues running sim racing games? I sort of made my build sheet based off of this video. Seems like it’s perfectly in my budget. Main game is Assetto Corsa Competizione. Thank you for the amazing content! I’ve learned so much from you so far
The 1 TB MSI SPATIUM M470 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive is on sale today (4/14) on Newegg at 50% off with a $10 rebate. That comes out to $45 total for a drive that normally retails for about $80.
I just did a build using a Ryzen 5600 and an ASUS B550m TUF Gaming board which I got on sale. I picked up a 5700xt second hand very cheaply. It's running great. Oh and for RAM I picked up some Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 3600 and it's running great.
The only component that I regret in my recent build is the ASRock B550. The PCIe slot for the GPU is heckin low (4 and 5 IO slots on the case) and the GPU sags pretty bad. I've put a brace in the case to prevent damage but I'm just going to swap it out pretty soon.
Thanks for the vid. Nice to know the parts as I am planning a 5600 or 13400 build but the pricing is really so far apart in my region. Most ridiculous is the asrock z690 extreme at $170. Cost like $400 in my market.
I just got a new pc recently. I love my 5600x, works great! Not sure I’ll need to upgrade for another few years! Ill upgrade my 3070 to a 4070 one day, if I do plan to do any upgrades.
I'm building my first pc with ryzen 5600, 16ram 3600 cl16, gigabyte b550 ds3h ac, 1tb ssd, and where I live (Argentina) I have a HUGE deal for a rx 6800 xt for only $270 dollars (used, but great condition). Should I go for a higher CPU or is the setup okay?
This build guide gives me hope for the parts I've ordered. So, thanks!! I'm no PC guy, but I can put one together (I think lol) Before viewing this, I purchased Ryzen 5 5600X ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6600 8GB GDDR6 ASUS PRIME B550M-A Wi-Fi II Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1 TB PCIe NVMe M.2 Corsair VENGEANCE LPX DDR4 RAM 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16 Corsair RM750e (2023) Fully Modular, 80 PLUS gold efficiency And I cheaped out on the case a bit... Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L Hopefully all this works together :/ We will ee come Tuesday, anything stick out/worrying here to a more experienced person?
The Ryzen 5 5600 supports gen4 X4 NVMe M2 drives on B550 motherboards. Although an "ultra-fast" M2 such as the Lexar NM790 or Samsung 990 Pro might not make a huge difference in gaming, they can produce enormous speed advantages in complex image editing operations and countless other complex operations.
Jason, would you consider posting a 5600x3D build? I know it’s a niche processor due to Microcenter exclusivity… but I’m about to put together a $500 PC as I have my old RTX 2070 just laying around so that won’t factor into the budget. I’m going to use AM4 and start with a Ryzen 3600 I found for $85 new on Amazon.
It is also depends on cpu, mobo etc. As I as I know at least 650w is what they recommend. I hoping to build 5600x with 6800 (non xt) with b550 mobo and I will go for 750w.

What are your PC Build or Upgrading Plans in 2023? What CPUs are you considering or using right now?
I'm using 5600X but those 3d chips are pretty cool... although I'm mostly GPU bound at the resolution I'm running at.
I’ve been running a 4070ti on my a520m plus WiFi mobo, is this a mistake? I haven’t noticed any issues.
I bought the 5600X with a Rog Strix B450-F Gaming motherboard+Tuf Gaming RTX3060+4x16gb Corsair LPX 3200mhz (64gb)+WD Blue N550 M.2 2tb+NOX Urano VX 750W 80+ Bronze+Asus VA27 monitor and runs fine with the latest games at 1080p.
Well i have 5900x Will it work good with The 7900xt? Or is it bottlenecking it?
I want to upgrade my system for 1440p gaming, at the moment I'm using Ryzen 5 2600 with a GTX 1070!

Great build guides! You provide awesome advice and understand the basis for these builds, especially lower end tier components for the budget minded. I recently built two gaming systems based on your videos. One was an individual who does everything EXCEPT gaming on a MacBook. Didn’t care about extra cores or performance as all he wanted to do was play WoW with our guild (which is crap on a MacBook lol). The build I chose lined up nicely with your budget parts list!
Awesome! Glad you could help out your friend and fellow WoW player (:
Thanks, I recently upgraded from an i7-3770k to a Ryzen 5 5600, and it's been a great performance boost at a reasonable price.
Hi Jason. I really like your "FPS first" philosopy. I have my own small gamer build business, and im really aligned with your suggestion for low-mid builds. There is far too many youtubechannels who only consider top-tier systems - and that is not where the majority are. 90% of my builds are in the range 900-1150$ (converted from DKK). Ryzen 5 5600(X) is my all time favorite. Im mainly going with B550, in the cheap end. I do not see the need to pay more for a normal pc wothout OC. You often mention the audio quality, is that really an issue in the cheaper model? Thanks for you :) Cheers from Denmark
I basically built this a few months ago. Upgraded the gpu and ram though. 1300 total and got a 6950xt, 32g of 4600 ram, 2tb 4.0 nvme, a sexy antec case (I've always liked antec since 2006).
Mostly because of your recommendations. Thanks
Nice!! Congrats on your build and glad we could help!
@@tilapiadave3234 haha, both.
I built a 5600X machine to replace my 3600X audio production machine that in turn replaced my 1700 HTPC machine. So, the 1700 machine is now a ready spare. A 6-core Ryzen is probably all the CPU most people will need for the next three years or so. For gaming, I'd avoid 4K with the 5600. It can do it, but only with a GPU that completely unbalances the system. Honestly, I'd pair it with a used 1080Ti, which can be had for ~$180 US and has the VRAM you'll need to run AAA games at 1080p, and maybe 1440p, with the pretty textures loaded. Remember, you don't actually need a case for a PC -- you can build on the motherboard box and run it that way until you can afford the case you want.
Love your vids. Ended up with a 5700G as I was waiting on graphics card prices to come down, honestly though I'm getting 40fps on some of the harder games so no rush to get a graphics card, as a wargamer/civ/strategy guy who dabbles in 1st person stuff I don't need the super graphics, got 2x 16gb Corsair Vengeance Pro SL 3600mhz optimised for Ryzen chips and 2 M2 HD's a super fast one for the OS and a 2gb slower one for games and honestly, it's absolutely sweet. Plus when I get my graphics card getting a 5800X3D for my Aorus Elite V2 Motherboard would keep things fresh for ages. My first build, powered with information gathered from your good self. Thanks!

2 weeks ago I built a very similar machine to what you show in the video. RX 6700xt, ryzen 3600x, 16GB 3600MHz CL17, b550 aorus Elite, Endorfy Regnum 400, 1TB m.2 Kingston KC3000 and 512GB Kingston SATA from my old laptop. Tested it on 4k ultra in Borderlands 3 and it ripped average 43fps
Built my 5600X system in February, but used your guides and others for a lot of guidance. Went with an RX580 I got for $100 on ebay; most likely will upgrade it with next year's tax refund. MSI B550 Gaming Gen3 mobo, 2x16GB Corsair Vengeance LPX sticks, 1TB WD Blue M2 NVME SSD and a 1TB WD Blue SATA SSD, Thermaltake 600W PS, Thermaltake Assassin X cooler and a Cougar M330 case (needed the 5.25 external bay). Got 32GB RAM since I do more than gaming, like modding Kerbal Space Program. :)
Would you also recommend the 32gb ram if I'm also using SOLIDWORKS on the computer
Oh yeah, 32gb should be considered standard now unless you're going the ultra-low budget gaming route. It is probably overkill for a lot of games, but once you add 3D modeling to the mix, the more RAM the better,@@roryc6173

The 5600 seems like an insane value CPU right now. I’ve talked to a bunch of friends looking to build a new build and not a single one is doing anything that needs anything more than the 5600.
Agreed!
I've had my eye on both the RX 6700 XT (though I'm going used) and that ID-COOLING cooler you mentioned for a while now. I'm currently running on a 5600G and saving for a GPU, so when I get enough to buy the GPU, I'm going to toss that cooler on as well, just because I'm not 100% satisfied with the cooling of the stock cooler. Benchmarks saw it leveling at pretty strong temps, even before I overclocked it, so I just want to make sure I'm prolonging the lifespan of my CPU.
Can you share your pc configuration especially motherboard? I am planning to build same
@@zayn3296 This is what I currently have in my PC, though in retrospect I might would have changed a few things. The RAM is completely for aesthetics, so you can definitely choose something cheaper if you want to. I originally went with a Teamgroup 3600/CL18 set but decided I wanted that cool G.skill set after I discovered it lol. The SSD is also kinda overkill. If I were to start over, I would have simply gone with the cheapest 1TB M.2, since gaming isn't really benefitted by speeds faster than what even low tier SSDs can provide. SATA is slower for more money, so I'd still avoid that, but boot up is the only thing you might want a blazing fast SSD for, and honestly, I have 12 seconds to wait for my PC to boot up lol. As far as the motherboard, I selected that one specifically because my monitor needs Displayport. Had I known what I was looking for, I might would have spent a little more for one with better audio, or maybe one with more aRGB headers. But that's just me; your needs might find this board perfectly fine. If you like the case I selected, I do need to mention that it's a tad smaller than even most mATX cases. Longer GPUs may have difficulty fitting, but I've only found a few to be too long. Anyway, that's the full rundown lol. Good luck with your build! pcpartpicker.com/list/CbKWk9
about to update my very old i-6500 setup finally and your videos have been insanely helpful thank you so much
Yes insane value build!
My 3090 still bottlenecks my 5600 in ultrawide 1440p! My 5600 runs under 35% usage. Plenty of headroom to upgrade my GPU even further.
Thanks for your videos Jason!
Glad you are enjoying! Thanks for watching (:
Just saying, the % usage on CPUs is not the best metric to say that the CPU is not bottlenecking your GPU. Even a single game thread can bottleneck a GPU and then the CPU utilisation may well be low.
In fact, I would even say that, due to the way graphics pipelines work, only a CPU could technically be a "bottleneck", because it is the one that takes place first, runs the gameplay and gives the scene to be rendered by the GPU (draw calls).
Therefore, (assuming VRAM is not exceeded, PCI-E connectivity is sufficient and you are not bumping against the engine limit) I think the best metric is GPU utilisation.
If your GPU is at around 95-100%, it means, as the last hardware before your Monitor, it is pumping as many frames at it can.
If your GPU is hanging around 70-80% most of the time (even if you CPU is not pegged at 100%), this is not ideal, as even a mid-range GPU costs as much as a good CPU+MB+RAM combo.
cpu usage doesn't work that way
@@konstantinlozev2272 so MSI afterburner benchmark is not ideally for measuring CPU usage? Can you rec. Something else. Thank you very much
@@xdinhxchris In VR there is the information from the VR runtime, which shows CPU time and GPU time. When you are developing in the game engine, you also get access typically in a debugging window to CPU time and GPU time.
The COD benchmarks I have seen contain CPU/GPU time graphs, which is very rare.
But those are usually not exposed to external tools like afterburner and are available for VR games only.
Maybe a workaround could be to test the flatscreen game in a VR virtual cinema mode and see what the CPU/GPU time show and even then you will be facing additional overhead from the VR environment rendering on top of the flatscreen game rendering.
I got the Lian Li Lancool 216 RGB case, 5800X3D, EK 240mm AIO, 6800XT, Asus Tuf X570, Trident Z 32gb of ram, 2tb 990 pro NVMe, and Seasonic 850w PSU. Still a beast of a combo and I got the 5800X3D under $320. I do a lot of 3D modeling and PC/VR gaming.
I went 1 month ago with a Gigabyte Aorus Elite ATX v2 + R5 5600 + 16Gb RAM. That combo is super sweet and for EUR 300 you just cannot beat it. Slap a second hand RTX 3060ti for EUR 300 or less and for EUR 600 you got an amazing PC (considering you reuse the case, PSU and storage).

Why don’t you get a 5700X? It’s like $20 more and you it’s so much faster?
Very similar performance, in testing with various GPUs there is almost no difference between the two, so I'd take even that $20 and invest it in faster ram, more storage, and especially into a better GPU if that helps. 5600 is all about price efficiency.
@@PCBuilderChannel yeah I’m currently building a PC, should I get the 5700X or 5600X?
Can confirm 5700x isn’t much faster then 5600x in gaming. If you only focus on gaming just get 5600x or 5600
@@lucaschenJC ah okay thank you! Would streaming really affect it?
@@Aeroaphy then I’d go with 5700x since it has 8 cores which are better for multitasking then 5600 or 5600x (6 core cpu)

should i go with 7700XT?
Retired my 11 y/o i3 4th gen personal office rig last year for a Ryzen 5600 and I was very happy when I did the switch. Old rig still usable for browsing and media consumption use so it's not meeting the pearly gates of recycling just yet.
Have been using the stock cooler in the Ryzen 5600 rig in a darkflash dk431 case with a 1660 Super and it becomes kinda hotter than what I expect when playing BG3 or FFXIV, or when doing some video rendering. 71-75C CPU, 72-75C GPU. Ambient room temp is 25-28C, plus we're in the tropics so room temps can spike up to 32-34C on a really hot day.
Much appreciate the recommendations on the air tower coolers. Now waiting for a Deepcool AK500 Digital for the cooler to replace stock. Also got Arctic P12 PWM PST fans to install after stripping all stock case fans as some of them already failed and had to make do with the non-PWM fans from an old PC case just to have airflow. No RGBs which I prefer, with the AK500 Digital the only display/light from within the case.
Would also need to tweak the fans speeds too once those fans are set up; insides of the rig was a bit dustier than I expected, so cleaned up recently and did a smoke test. Lo and behold, yep, negative pressure just under the rear exhaust and it sucks air from the top mesh too 😅
PS. Love the cat. :meow:
Before watching this video, I put a lot of stuff in my cart on amazon to build something in the tier class of his budget system (starting around 11:10), and I have to say I'm happy with how mine compares to his in price and parts equivalence.
The big difference is what I did with video cards. For my "budget build" (which is just brainstorming right now), I have my amazon cart, and one thing in ali express: an RX580 2048sp card, which is only about 80 bucks. The reason I went with that card is that I have one in the system I made for my brother, and the one I made for my father, and it's working great. I'd rather put a 6600XT in them, but that is between 3 and 4 times the cost (and I figure a GPU can always be upgraded later).
So, how did I come to a total of about $680, when "skimping" on the GPU?
E-waste!
I've been watching a lot of Dawid videos, and his love and hate for e-waste amuses me, so I asked myself "if I were selling this on ebay and had to include obligatory e-waste, what would I include?"
An Asus Tuf Gaming 24 inch 165 hertz 1080p IPS gaming monitor, a mouse/keyboard/headphone bundle, a deskpad, an HDMI cord, and a display cord (as both monitor and GPU support display port).
Case, motherboard, ram, storage, CPU, GPU, coolers, monitor and e-waste... everything you need to go from having nothing to game on to having a full set, all for $680.
And, of course, all built around the Ryzen 5 5600 CPU.
This video is great for advice, and for comparing my silly build to.
I did cheap out on the motherboard though. An a520 for 70 bucks. But when you look at benchmarks of cards in PCIe 4, 3, and even 2, ports, you realize that despite the significant difference in what the generations are capable of, in real world performance the difference is surprisingly small, so for a budget build I have no problems with it just being PCIe 3.0 (and I may be wrong anyhow. The amazon listing actually claims it has PCIe 4.0, and that the m.2 slots are limited to PCIe 3.0)
Nice! Thanks for sharing.
Actually building a 5600-based rig for a friend right now, good inspiration!
As for myself, rocking it with 7700x+4090 strix :)
The 5600 is a perfect foundation. Built mine 3 weeks ago and I’m not disappointed. Paired it with a RX6600 and gpu does all the grunt work, which is what it’s supposed to do. The cpu doesn’t need to get out of bed, box cooler is perfectly adequate.
It’s also really important to think about what games you play when choosing gpu. I play relaxing tycoon/city builder & transport simulator titles so insane FPS and that extra millisecond to get that snipe shot doesn’t matter to me
Idea for a video, sharing home build tips.
My first one is to use an old soft laptop padded case (or similar) as a lazy Susan on a table.
It let me use daylight easily turning the case around, so much easier to see small print on the board.
The second one is to pre-route cables with easily visible coated white wire fasteners used on food bags and packaging.
That way you see what needs attention later but benefit from having things neat.
It let me do some routing that would require removing the power supply to squeeze the header through.
Cable ties are too committing, so undoable easy twist wire ties will get the job done better than if you leave all the cable management for later.
In personal builds, I ummm have lived with panels off or a stack of lose disks sitting next to the case as it was always more convenient than finishing 🙈🙈
This temporary state has lasted for nearly a decade in one SMP server box I had, I literally only put the sides on to move house!!
Using old HDD even from laptop is viable, you try out Romex's PrimoCache and allocate some system RAM and an SSD partition as cache. HDD transfer speed isn't the problem it's the constant back & forth.
It's amazing how fast games can load (quicker than SSD) because the folders are pre-fetched into RAM after boot.
That's a great suggestion thank you! Hope you are having a great Friday Rob!

Thank you so much for this informative video! Im researching to start my first pc build and looking at the ryzen 5600 so this is absolutely perfect for me
Glad I could help!
Paired my 5600 non x with an Rx 6750 xt and it is absolutely amazing. So happy with my purchase but would recommend getting the non 50 xt Rx 6700 xt instead. The extra money just isn’t worth it.
i have a 5600 x and upgraded from a 3070 to a 4070ti. with dlss 3.0 amazing, without sometimes 10 % bottleneck
This is how a pc build should be presented. It should be built around the processor to make the best out of it. And GPU can be choosed according to your needs.
I still have a 5900X paired with an XFX 6800XT.. I actually just built it a little over a year ago. I have been so happy with Ryzen.. I started with a 1700 Zen 1 then went to a 2700X on an X370 Taichi Board. And I have to say that to this day Zen 3 is still more than enough if you are gaming at 4K. We all have M.2's and SSD's so performance is really negligible these days.. I did what Jason says to do I bought the best GPU at the time for the money, and was able to get the 5900X for the same price as the 5800X so that was a no brainer.. Then I went with a B550 ASRock PG Velocita, in a PHanteks P500A white Just like Jason's LOL.. I did a 980 500gig in Top M.2 and then went with a 1T 970 Gen 3 for the bottom M.2.. I am still very happy.. 4K All Day..
had a super cheap asrock b450 with a ryzen 2700 and rx580. I updated the bios and popped in the 5600 and a 6600xt, and it was a fantastic upgrade. pc powers up to login within 12 seconds. All game play at 1080p ultra at more than 60 fps. Will not need to upgrade for years. And the upgrade cost only $350.
Nice!
Can you do a GPU scaling benchmark with the 7800 X3D versus the 5800 X3D with a 4090 at 4k if you can afford it?
LoL you really want to put the guy into bankruptcy don't you
Your cat in 2:56 is saying hello to the audience :). Great content
Glad you're enjoying the channel! The cat appreciates your attention.
I'm doing small upgrades to my ibuypower pre-built, haven't built a PC since 2002. Thanks for answering my research for recommendation on the deepcool tower fan-i ordered the one with the digital thermonitor. My next project is upgrading the PSU.
So glad we could help!
TH-cam recommendations must be blessed right now. Got the exact video I needed. Thanks so much!
Glad you found what you needed! Hope you keep enjoying all the content :D
Wish this video came out about a month ago…just built my first PC with similar items (5600, 6650xt, Silicon Power 3200 16 GB RAM, different Deep Cool case for same price but 4 RGB fans), but went with slightly larger PSU at 650w and cheaper B450…wished I spent $25 more on better MOBO and kept cost even with cheaper PSU. Either way, still appreciate the videos and knowledge you share. And the learning experience was still worth it for me!
I think that's one of the things that's so appealing about PC gaming. You're never really stuck with a component you don't like. You have the option to swap it out and just keep the other components, unlike with console gaming where it's a package deal. It kills to overbuy though, so I feel your pain on that PSU lol
I did a similar build just over a month ago, got a b450 as well, sad times it seems
just build my first pc 1 month ago and picked the 5600x case , prime B550M , 6650XT OC and and 3600 cl16 16GB I'm loving it! great fps and works fine with new games!!!
Nice!! Congrats on your first build!!
@@PCBuilderChannel thank you 🙏 it’s all by your help and information a made this set up and learned a lot about modern pc’s!
You literally answered all my questions and more!
At first I was hesitant, now I'm sure that I'm gonna buy diis!
Thanks 🙏
So glad we could help, love to hear it! Be sure to check out the links in the description for our recommendations :)
LOL, what is your cat doing at 2:40 ??? That's hilarious!
I think he's doing his daily Cat Yoga (;
Make sure you watch to the end for another special cat appearance lol
video index seems a bit off, but nice video !
Thanks for the catch! I went through it and cleaned it up. Was in a hurry this morning when I put it together. Glad you enjoyed!
5600 and rtx 4070 is a match made in heaven for ppl who want high perf with low power draw, 12gb of vram, great perf with raytracing, and great blender render times without bleeding the wallet dry.
Agreed!
I completed a Ryzen 9 5900x build with a RX 6700xt and it is blazing fast. I am using an Asus B550 motherboard but am having a major problem running large external drives (2 to 4 TB) from the USB 3 ports. They keep disconnecting shortly after connection. It makes me leary of using a Ryzen 5000 series CPU paired with a B550 or X570 motherboard of any kind. My second computer would probably be an i7 13700. Intel doesn't seem to have that kind of issue.
About to build my first gaming PC just waiting on my case and I can't wait!!!
Congrats and good luck on your first build!
You’ve made me feel like building a pc is easy lol. Now just waiting on my parts to arrive
You got this! And check out our "how to build a pc" step by step building guide for more
2:40 the little paw sticking out from behind the arc a750 box lol
Good eyes! I was wondering if anyone would spot his cat yoga in the background lol
Thank you for your help. I used your channel to help build my first system and i couldnt be happier
Love to hear it, congrats on the build! Glad we could help :)
I went for the Vetroo V5 cooler for my build...as well as a Phanteks 400A Digital case...
Also noticed the bottleneck of the Ryzen 5 5600G on the ASUS X570 MB... Just bought a $25 R5 2400G from a store I trust to kickstart the BIOS flashback... They were just selling testing chips out of the package and with the date of last usage on the plastic CPU holder... As soon as I get this done...this tablet's days are numbered as an all day computer...but might be used for an office computer...
Will use the Wi-Fi on my phone to cover the BIOS update...
Thanks for sharing!
I dont need a pc, im just here for jason and his positive energy. Man i love this guy.
Thank you, much appreciated! Glad you're enjoying the channel :)
I have a 5600x, I recently came across a 4080 Super for a good deal. Is it worth upgrading from my 4060 for this?
The 4080 super will bottleneck that CPU a lot. So if you are going to do this drop in a 5700X3D at the same time. See our "how to upgrade your PC 2024" video for more
Excellent video as always. Love the structure to these videos.
Glad the structure is helpful! thank you for watching!
awesome video as always. Can you please tell me if the N7 b550 is one of those motherboards with better audio youre talking about? I got cheap in a clearance sale and am not sure if i should use it or get a mobo with a better mobo. Thank you!!!!1
Yes it has the great audio you're looking for.
Yes good board and upgraded audio
Awesome video. This answers all questions for new people building a PC. I built my first pc back in 2020 and this even helps me.
Thank you! The feedback means a ton. Hope you keep enjoying the content!
Really good video sir, i'm specting to upgrade my pc who has a ryzen 5600x and 3060ti to a ryzen 5800X3D and 4070Ti because i have a good motherboard and don't wanna spend more money on it. Thanks for the information :)
Glad the info was helpful! Good luck with the upgrades!
Hi idk if u remember me but I had the cousin with the weird build from the last bmb, but I actually talked him into a 12400 build kinda like what u have here, your video helped convince him
Love to hear it! Glad we could help him out :)
Would a set up like this have any issues running sim racing games? I sort of made my build sheet based off of this video. Seems like it’s perfectly in my budget. Main game is Assetto Corsa Competizione. Thank you for the amazing content! I’ve learned so much from you so far
Should be great! Double check the recommend specs of the games you play to be sure you will get the kind of settings you want.
The 1 TB MSI SPATIUM M470 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVME Solid State Drive is on sale today (4/14) on Newegg at 50% off with a $10 rebate. That comes out to $45 total for a drive that normally retails for about $80.
I just did a build using a Ryzen 5600 and an ASUS B550m TUF Gaming board which I got on sale. I picked up a 5700xt second hand very cheaply. It's running great. Oh and for RAM I picked up some Patriot Viper Steel DDR4 3600 and it's running great.
Congrats on the build!
Your build for the 5600 is almost the same as my home build. 5600x. 6700xt. 32gb 3600 cl 16. Dark hero VIII mb. Great with 1440p.
The only component that I regret in my recent build is the ASRock B550. The PCIe slot for the GPU is heckin low (4 and 5 IO slots on the case) and the GPU sags pretty bad. I've put a brace in the case to prevent damage but I'm just going to swap it out pretty soon.
Is it the steel legend? I'm planning to buy the b550m
@@irfanhakimi5813 mine is the Phantom
Thanks for the vid. Nice to know the parts as I am planning a 5600 or 13400 build but the pricing is really so far apart in my region. Most ridiculous is the asrock z690 extreme at $170. Cost like $400 in my market.
Frustrating! Best wishes on your build!
I just got a new pc recently. I love my 5600x, works great! Not sure I’ll need to upgrade for another few years! Ill upgrade my 3070 to a 4070 one day, if I do plan to do any upgrades.
This is so informative. Thanks for the video.
You got it, glad we could help. Hope you keep enjoying all the content!
I'm building my first pc with ryzen 5600, 16ram 3600 cl16, gigabyte b550 ds3h ac, 1tb ssd, and where I live (Argentina) I have a HUGE deal for a rx 6800 xt for only $270 dollars (used, but great condition). Should I go for a higher CPU or is the setup okay?
That's a good CPU/GPU combo :) Congrats on the deal and good luck with your first build!
What PSU should I use for the Ryzen 5700x and Xr 6700xt?
The ones we recommend here are good! And you can hop over to our Best PSU 2022 video to double check your wattage needs
This build guide gives me hope for the parts I've ordered. So, thanks!!
I'm no PC guy, but I can put one together (I think lol)
Before viewing this, I purchased
Ryzen 5 5600X
ASUS Dual Radeon RX 6600 8GB GDDR6
ASUS PRIME B550M-A Wi-Fi II
Samsung 970 EVO Plus 1 TB PCIe NVMe M.2
Corsair VENGEANCE LPX DDR4 RAM 16GB (2x8GB) 3200MHz CL16
Corsair RM750e (2023) Fully Modular, 80 PLUS gold efficiency
And I cheaped out on the case a bit...
Cooler Master MasterBox Q300L
Hopefully all this works together :/ We will ee come Tuesday, anything stick out/worrying here to a more experienced person?
Please provide PCPartPicker list in description so we can save in our profile or customize if needed anything
The Ryzen 5 5600 supports gen4 X4 NVMe M2 drives on B550 motherboards. Although an "ultra-fast" M2 such as the Lexar NM790 or Samsung 990 Pro might not make a huge difference in gaming, they can produce enormous speed advantages in complex image editing operations and countless other complex operations.
Is it okay if I buy one 16gb RAM instead of 2x 8GB?
No! You don't want one stick of Ram, always 2. See our Best Ram for Gaming video for more
Jason, would you consider posting a 5600x3D build? I know it’s a niche processor due to Microcenter exclusivity… but I’m about to put together a $500 PC as I have my old RTX 2070 just laying around so that won’t factor into the budget. I’m going to use AM4 and start with a Ryzen 3600 I found for $85 new on Amazon.
Thank you for bringing so much value, I am grateful
as i’m starting to build my first PC
Much appreciated, thank you! And congrats on the first build, very exciting! Check out our How to Build a PC 2023 Video for more :)
Do you think that the 650w psu is enough for a rx 6700xt? I really don’t want to mess up the psu
It is also depends on cpu, mobo etc. As I as I know at least 650w is what they recommend. I hoping to build 5600x with 6800 (non xt) with b550 mobo and I will go for 750w.
Nice one. More of these kinds. Cheers
Noted, thanks! And thank you for watching :)
