Welcome to AMD brother. My system specs for interested, great PC btw: Windows 11 Motherboard: Asus Strix A Gaming B550 Plus CPU: AMD R7-5800x3D [-30 all core Undervolted] CPU Cooling: Scythe SCFM-2100 Fuma 2 Rev.B 120mm Black GPU: Palit RTX4070Ti Super OC (PCIe 4.0x16) RAM: 32GB CL16 3600MHz (G.Skill.RipJaws) FLCK 1933MHz Monitor: MSI MAG401QR 40" UWQHD (3440x1440) 155Hz
I have the same cpu, but a 5500xt 8gb paired with it. gpus fine, but I really look forward to doing like u and upgrading to either this same card or the 4060/4070. Love ur vids!!
The GPU is OK but there is room for improvement. I will see how long I am keeping it. Recently I went with another case (the video is in progress). It was an interesting experience because that made me replace the mainboard too.
You should have just purchased two RAM modules and not bothered trying to go for 4 "later". Many PCs have issues running 4 RAM modules at higher than default SPD speeds. Unless you plan to run the RAM at default SPD settings just get a dual channel kit and then you know you got matched RAM to start with and have a better chance it can run XMP speeds. Nothing really needs 128gb of RAM so you're better of going for 32 or 64 with two modules and run the RAM at XMP speeds. It's even worse for DDR5 trying to run 4 modules. Many systems can't run 4 modules at full speed unfortunately.
yeah, only found this out after I bought 4 8gb sticks instead of 2 16gb sticks. I kinda feel like the fool, though the loss in performance is neglible with good enough parts like the ones shown in the vid.
@@eday2448 all good, yeah sometimes you an get the silicon lotery and be lucky enough to get 4 modules running at a higher speed but that is often dependent on the size of the modules as well. I have seen RAM work with 4 modules @ 6400MT/s on one CPU and not on the other CPU even both were the same CPU. Threadripper is a bit different as those have native quad channel memory controllers, but the highest I can take my Threadripper is 6400MT/s with AMD EXPO RAM. And yeah performance is probably neglible, you're right. Unless you've actually got a quad channel memory controller.
Even the Threadripper 7000 board says "you can only achieve 6400MT/s RAM if the maximum module size is 32gb, otherwise it drops to 4800MT/s" so the biggest quad channel kit you could get while still retaining 6400MT/s is 128gb. I got 64 because EXPO RAM is not cheap.
Hello, 32GB is the maximum supported per slot so you can buy one and stick with it if you want but buying 2x16 or lower is waste of money in my opinion. Better get directly 64 (2x32) and stay there. I have 64 now (2x32) and I will go to the maximum 128 because I am not only playing games, for which 32 or 64 is more than enough at this time. I am testing different operating systems and scenarios which includes also virtualization (proxmox, esxi, etc.) and here you need as much ram as you can.
@@zubilitic yeah I do development work too which is why I opted for 64, but in my experience a total of 32gb (2x16) isn't really a waste of money as it is absolute fine for 99% of gamers because I don't know a single game (yet) that needs more than 32gb. You could think future proofing or just build another PC in 5 years :)

sick build!!
Cool build! I am changing the case and CPU cooler next and with that, entering the crazy RGB world. Not a fan but I actually like the PC glowing now.
@@zubilitic Also not a fan of RGB, but it does look cool.

OMG. Case with slots for cd-rom and top mount for power supply.
yep, case from 2009 :D
32gb of ram a bit overkill for that 3600 but not bad
also swap out that single stick for 2 16gb sticks
Yes, you could go with that and be enough for gaming.
