Did you know that only COMMUNISTS own faster than 56k modem internet? You're not a COMMUNIST, are you?
large cases were elite in the early 2000s, now they just take up too much damn room, and are not the flex they used to be.
smaller measurements is more fun, anyone can slap whatever in some huge ass case, small building is tedious and elegant.
With how big cards are now and how much heat they put out i would not cuck myself with a sff case. You will get throttled hard on performance

Try sustained performance for 3 hours on max settings
uhhh i run 128 ram quad boot with CUDA Tensor and multiple VMs at times.
i put this thing through hell just to try and break it.
it is a tank.
stop making excuses and start building small, it is much more fun.

Nah you can stick a 7800x3d with a 55mm aircooler and 4090 FE into a fractal terra and have no heat issues at all. MiniITX is amazing with the options we have today.

Intel CPUs have no benefits whatsoever except for leaving you with less money and more heat
Nvidia GPUs are basically AI tools at this point, so if you're not doing that there's no reason to pay the premium
Normoids wrongly thought that because AMD makes top tier CPUs then they must also make top tier GPUs. Obviously this is flawed logic mainly caused by intel cpus dropping the ball, since anyone with >100IQ knows the optimal config is AMD+NVIDIA. Oh well, if you want to build suboptimally, that is not my problem.
The 7800x3d and the 5800x3d are by far the best choices for CPUs for gaming, and nearly every single reviewer and tech outlet agrees.
Radeon GPUs may not be the best, but Nvidia has gone full moron with pricing, and Intel ARC is still too broken to trust.
Also mATX is the ideal form factor. Reasonably sized without the cost or awkward build experience of mITX.
Those aren't builds. You just buy those. And when it comes to actual all AMD builds I actually don't know if they're trending or not, I just don't want people here to see a post like OP and think "oh he said it's popular now guess it must be so".
I have a B450-PLUS motherboard with an AM4 socket. My CPU is my bottleneck, it's a Ryzen 5 2600. My GPU is an RX 6700 XT.
If the priority is budget/performance instead of getting the latest and greatest, should I try to get the most recent AM4 socket CPU's (they seem to still release some even this year)? Or does it make more sense to get both a new motherboard with a different socket and a better CPU?
Thank you, I'll check this one out >V-Cache
From what I understand this makes the processor worse for anything that isn't vidya, right?
If that's true I think I'd be okay with that, as I do play vidya and don't think I'd mind the slightly worse performance on non-video stuff
Also, the default with AMD is no integrated graphics right? Do they just make the chips with graphics and then disable them without actually adding more performance for these models? Or do the no-graphics models actually get better performance because the graphics part isn't there?
I always run a dedicated GPU anyway, but I did have a scare recently where it might have been helpful to be able to display the BIOS on screen without a GPU.
AMD makes 2 kinds of chips, ones with less cache and a GPU in that space, these are normally for laptops. occasionally they sell the ones with broken GPUs a desktop chips like the r5 5500.
Most desktop chips are the normal design, with 1 controller chip and 1-2 core tiles that have no GPU at all.
>Why is all AMD builds so popular now?
Prices
i fricking loathe IQfyermin so fricking much 2022 should have never happened
you gays do realize that inflation exists, right?
$1300 poverty build is a $900 build from 2010.
GPUs have increased in cost even after accounting for inflation.
GPUs have increased in processing power accounting for inflation
$900 in 2010 is $1575 now
small cases rule, prove me wrong

>1300 dollars = on a budget
yes, on a $1,300 budget
Blame everyone who bought a GPU during the crypto boom, scalping epidemic, and initial AI hype. All you had to do was wait.
I waited from dec 2019 until the end of 2023.
Then you're part of the problem and you have no right to complain.
LOL TF.
I waited until prices came down and my pc couldn't handle the games I wanted to play lmao.
then who isn't part of the problem? I'm still waiting since 2018. how much longer? 1 year? 1 decade? heat death of the universe?
Poor homosexual
my thoughts exactly. no wonder everyone is buying a console over a pc now. a steam deck and ps5 plays all your games and its $400
You can build a ryzen 5500 5700XT build with one of those cheap motherboards for less than $400.
You just have to get a cheap PSU and cheap case no more than $30 each.
because budget builds are popular, so you gotta make cuts somewhere
same as it's always been
>$1300 is now "budget"
what a time to be alive
The same reason they were popular last time, and the time before that, and the time before that. Price.
large cases were elite in the early 2000s, now they just take up too much damn room, and are not the flex they used to be.
smaller measurements is more fun, anyone can slap whatever in some huge ass case, small building is tedious and elegant.
I still use the case I got for 30$ in 2001.
>overheats
pssh nothin' personell, kid
if it overheats you are not building it right.
it is much more fun to put together specs in small cases, that is my opinion at least.
Where is the PSU?
are you fricking with me?

my 5950X was unstable and had to RMA it, bought it three years after it came on the market

agree
Do you see ONE video and think "wow it's so popular now"?
its so popular that they have a monopoly in x86 gaming. playstation, xbox, steam deck, all running amd.
Those aren't builds. You just buy those. And when it comes to actual all AMD builds I actually don't know if they're trending or not, I just don't want people here to see a post like OP and think "oh he said it's popular now guess it must be so".

if you can, get a 5800X3D, probably the most cost effective thing you can do.

not anymore since 7000 series
Price gouging is why. By that thumbnail some 4080s cost more than the entire build.
Cause AMD keeps paying channels to promote them
intel is 700w house fire
