  Considering i just paid for $680 for a 5700xt upgrade these are really good deals.

  • 

    scuderiarmani on 24/01/2020 - 16:54

    Why? You can buy them separately less….

    Was their a previous GPU included you paid on top of?

    • 

      Ruptur3 on 24/01/2020 - 17:41

      Naw, just $680 to replace my current one in my PC. I meant it's getting pretty uneconomical to build and upgrade your own pc.

    El-CheapoNazi on 24/01/2020 - 16:55

    Sorry, did you mean; $680 just for the 5700xt card?

  I just received my R9/2080S combo yesterday and it's performing well so far.
  Mind you, I put an NVMe PCIe SSD and my own Corsair 2x16GB memory when I got it.

  Just had my first real session with it and noted that the 2080S was running pretty hot.

    In the end, I just upgraded to the Asus TUF X570 Mobo and 240mm rad.

      What temps are you getting when gaming?

      Is it easy enough to upgrade to a full size mobo?

      • 

        watto101 on 24/01/2020 - 20:42

        To be fair, I've not got the readings handy. I just noticed the heat from the exterior of the case - upon opening, I noted that the card was pretty hot to touch though with all due respect to the card, I am more than confident it was within safe operating levels.

          CustardShot on 24/01/2020 - 20:54

          @watto101: Oh, nice. My 2080ti runs anywhere from high 60s to occasional spikes to 78. Modern warfare makes it run a lot hotter I've noticed

    Can you tell us if you can Boot from the M2-MVME-SSD, with the Asus TUF X570, please.

    also do you know if the Biostar mobos used in other deals can Boot from an M2 SSD?

      I definitely can boot with the NVMe drive. I just cloned the SSD they sent with the order to the NVMe.

  I'm looking to get a new PC, currently been using a laptop with an external monitor/keyboard/mouse etc. (4710Q, GTX 970M). Somewhat budget constrained, would the Ryzen 5 3500X | RX 5700 XT combo be suitable for gaming at medium graphics (1080p)? Currently play WoW and PoE, have managed ok with the laptop but frames sometimes leave a lot to be desired. Not bothered about ultra gfx settings ever.

  If I did go that option, would it be worth upping the mobo, 3200mhz RAM and grabbing a different SSD? Seems to be a common option, though adds quite a bit to the price ($129 for the mobo alone). The 750W gold PSU is a nice inclusion.

    It would be much more than sufficient for what you're after. I'd recommend their $689 Ryzen 3500X/GTX 1660 deal if all you want to do is 1080p medium gaming. Any of these would be overkill.

    • 

      Quant on 24/01/2020 - 21:33

      Ok thanks! Is that considering another few years of gaming demands? Also, thoughts on which bits to upgrade if any are worth it? I think at least getting to 16GB of RAM would be nice, just looking at my current usage. There is also a 3500X/2060 for $830 which is very affordable!

      • 

        xyron on 24/01/2020 - 21:35

        Yep if you want a smidge more performance that would also be a good combo.

        Put it this way, the progress of desktop PC technology has completely died in recent years. You could be on a Sandy Bridge platform with an RX 480 (a 4 year old GPU) and you'd still be fine to run even modern games at 1080p. The 3500X has six cores and can get up to 4ghz with Precision Boost so it'll be contemporary for a few years to come.

        • 

          locosam on 25/01/2020 - 01:01

          @xyron: I think the 3500x is a bit touch and go for the future.
          Your avg fps bar graph will show acceptable numbers, but 6 core / 6 threads already shows its limitations in some edge cases.
          The 3600 with 6/12 i feel is worth the extra spend if buying new.
          And with the newly released 5600 xt i think those 2 is worth getting if budget allows, and skip the 5700xt if 1080p gaming is the target.

  • 

    tofuofdoom on 24/01/2020 - 21:43

    If you don't have a huge rush, id wait a little longer. The 5600xt just got announced, and it's shaping up to be the king of 1080p gaming.

    The 5700xt + ryzen 3500x is more geared towards 1080p144hz or 1440p60hz than the 1080p60hz I'm assuming you're going for, if you really want a computer in the next 10 days and don't want to build yourself, I'd go with the 1660ti techfast build, bump up to 16gb ram, grab 500gb SSD+ 1-2tb HDD, and bump up to gold rated psu, should be around 1k all up for a reasonable rig

    That said, if you're not afraid of building yourself, head over to www.reddit.com/r/cabalofthebuildsmiths and fill out their request form

    You'll get a similar setup, but they'll be better quality parts all around, and will give you better performance. Techfast will give you essentially the store brand version of what they've listed, the cheapest price point that technically fulfills requirements

      Quant on 24/01/2020 - 23:24

      I've built a few computers before so I'm not fussed by doing it so long as it's financially a reasonable option! I will go check out that subreddit cheers, and thanks for the other advice as well! I can wait 10 days hah, though in the next few weeks would be good.

    3800X was purchased at 3700X pricing which has ended, and the deliveries were painful. Probably won't happen again

    • 

      kisshell9 on 26/01/2020 - 19:55

      Please consider a deal with same spec as the amd 3800x desktop from previous post for the same price but with amd 3700x in the near future…

  ProdigyInspired on 25/01/2020 - 15:16

  The 3700x vs 3500x builds seems be an extra tacked on $100 ($300 between the two) compared to the 2070S builds which have a $250 diff but you get a larger SSD so you're just paying for the market difference of a 3600 which is at(can't find 3500X market prices, but 3500X and 3600 perform relatively the same for games, 3600 just has double the threads which isn't too significant in a game unless hyper-threading)

  • 

    locosam on 26/01/2020 - 23:38

    I think that's a little misleading. The 3500x performs like a 2600x but with lower 1% and is far worse in production workloads cause of the missing threads.

    Not to mention the new 1600AF is essentially a 2600 at US $85, i think that the 3500x lifespan will be quite limited.

    • 

      ProdigyInspired on 28/01/2020 - 00:59

      Not sure how that disagrees against what I said, I'm just pointing out the difference between the upgrade options for the 2070S and 2080S builds. In no way I talked about the 2600 or anything regarding workload. With more threads you would assume the 3600 is at least more expensive or same price (which is why I used the price example).

        Marketingluketechfast @ TechFast on 28/01/2020 - 11:04

        Oh I see, I thought you meant $30 for the upgrade. We only use the Mortar Max now so nothing else needed - Mortar is end of life.
