I have to thank you the fact that you DO take the time to explain even the simplest and basic concepts so even debutants can understand you. It is a HUGE added value to your videos, something missing in other RUclipsrs that are maybe for more experienced audience with the same high quality content but hard for some of us to follow. Please keep it like that, cheers!
Thank you for the great feedback! That's always our goal so its wonderful to hear. Hope you keep enjoying the content
Yea as a dog I'm going to build my first PC end of this year.
Don’t plan on doing my first ever build until around January. Have been watching everything for almost a year. Hoping by then things cool down and maybe AMD will have their GPUs out by then too. Your videos are the best explaining at bang for buck hardware.
Glad you enjoy them! I think January will be a great time to build a PC with V-Cache versions of the Ryzen 7000 series likely out in 1Q.
@@PCBuilderChannel So i will till January then & Are you sure the V-cache version is launching that soon ?
@@harishFx16 I have q2 2023 for release date
im getting sum stuff for my build now . since its never been this low from msrp
Did you do it and how did it go?
HECK YES!! finally showing the steel legend series some love lol.... i still absolutely love my b550matx steel legend mobo.. the finish is just super clean and gives me everything i need. and has no issues running the 5800x
First time watching your videos I’ve primarily watched GN as I only like actual nerds with real informative information and statistics rather than “for the views” kinda people. Liked and subbed! I’ll be following along as I plan my upgrade from x570 gen 3/3080
"More Star Trek than consumer tech"
I know you're proud of that one! Definitely got a laugh out of me. Great video as always Jason!
Glad you enjoyed it! It did make me laugh (;
Yo watched this like 5 times and am a bit torn
What's ur opinion on Asus Pro Art X670e vs the Asus Strix Gaming x670e-e? I'm building a new workhorse pc that is literally all purpose from 4k editing to high end VR gameplay and recording, streaming etc. I'm really torn between the 2. I don't need the 10gb lan but the usb 4 seems nice to have, the 16+2 power phase concerns me but I only plan on using the automatic overclocking features of the 7950x would this be enough? Full build should be 4090, 1300w psu, 32gb 6000 ddr5 and a 7950x. Only reason I passed on the asrock x670e tachi was the lack of the lower pcie lane but if you feel that would be a better option i'm still considering it! Any guidance would be appreciated!
Good work as always Jason!
Amazing video man thanks for being a huge help to the PC community.
Received my Asus Rog Strix X670E-E gaming Wifi and 7950X 2 days ago 😊
Building a new Pc after 10 years. This was a great catch-up video on all the latest tech
So glad it was helpful!!
THANK YOU! You have the best videos and they have made me so confident in building my PC. I've learned so much from you and I just subscribed to your channel yesterday. Been studying PC build for about a month and soon I will build my own hopefully in a couple of months or less. I am buying parts with pride and knowledge thanks to you! Keep up the great work and blessing to our community!
Thank you so much for the amazing feedback! Thank you for the sub and best wishes on your build!
Thank you so much for the coverage. You did all the research so I can just to pick the right one for me.
That's great to hear! So glad it was helpful
YES!!! I got the steel legend asrock board because it was the cheapest x670e board that I saw... Now I'm happy with my decision, thanks!
Nice!
Bonus content from Jason. That always makes a day better. I currently am very happy with my 5600x paired with a 6700xt so I doubt I will upgrade to a 7000 anytime soon. I would probably go with a 670 if I did upgrade
Good morning fellow Jason! And yes you have a great combo, no reason to change at the moment (:
@Shorts Kittu Cats All the Jason in one thread! lol
You can edit 4k on a 6700xt, it'll just take a long time compared with its' nVidia counterparts. AMD GPUs are a solid choice for gaming, but for productivity and multitasking, nVidia still has a significant advantage, apples to apples. Given nVidia's recent behavior, I don't blame anyone wanting to avoid them, but time is money after all.
I don't do any video editing. Gaming performance is amazing
Price vs benefit..you have a 5900x variant cheaper than 5800x3d anytime time you want, which is also a gaming perspective ugrade...so, a value only for 350 to 450$ more vs 1000+$ cpu,mb,ram of 7000 series to last more than 3 years..Even for a new built...
I've used to Asrock x670e Pro Rs for a while now and I am supper satisfied, especially on the bios and firmware side and gen5 m.2 is something that made my workflow smooth.
I have just purchased the ASROCK 670XE PRO RS for my Ryzen 7900x be at home with. Never spent a great deal on a motherboard in the past so this was quite expensive for my liking (£350 gbp). The audio codec isn't really a issue for me as if i want to improve that you can by other means. But all the other stuff is very nice and it does look great.
Glad you got what you need! Let us know how you like it
I only just watched this having made my purchase 2 weeks ago (ASUS TUF Gaming plus WiFi) and pleased that you liked it. I went for this because I needed a decent motherboard to go with the 7900 that so impressed me at low power. If you're spending this much, I reckon the lower midrange is best and I don't mind paying an extra 10% for a fuller set of capability (even if I don't need it now), a nice look + I like ASUS boards. Glad you covered it and keep up the good stuff.
Glad you got what you needed! Thanks for sharing (:
So quick to produce this vid, love the content! Keep it up Jason and Mrs. Jason 😁
Thank you!! Not going to lie, out two cat two person team is exhausted lol. But wanted to get useful stuff out asap (:
As always, great details! Looking forward to your boost your build series on some upcoming Zen 4 builds for people.
Thank you! Me too! We will start those up again soon
Thank you for another great video! 😸
Waiting to see the b series lineup too!
(Still looking at the 5000 series for my first build, but damn! Can't help but being excited about the new shiny tech! 😸)
Thanks Valentina! Gotta love shiny new tech (;
No plans on building a pc at all and watched the whole thing. Learned a bit, too.
So glad you enjoyed!!
I really do appreciate and love your informative videos!
So glad its helpful! Thanks for watching! And we do have a much more recent Best Ryzen Motherboard 2024 video for you if you want to check that out
This video will help me a lot. Right now I have gtx1080 with intel i5 6600k. The cpu is driving me crazy with it's bottlenecks.
Thank you a lot. 👍
So glad its helpful!
Thanks for the round-up. I went with the Asus ROG Crosshair X670E Gene. I wanted a mATX board and I didn't mind the high price since I'll keep this board through several generations of future AMD CPUs and it had all the enthusiast features I wanted in a compact form factor, such as USB4 and three M.2 slots. It is a beautifully-engineered board which looks great, too.
Honestly none of the gen5 nvme I've seen specs for even max out gen4 bandwidth. We saw the same thing with the first gen4 nvme not being able to saturate gen3 bandwidth. There's probably a measurable difference if you set up ur benchmark just right, but nothing anyone would ever be able to tell.
Congrats on getting this video out so early. Ur a machine lol
Haha thanks Christopher! Not going to lie our two cat two person team is exhausted lol
Now this is what I was waiting for.
Awesome video PC Builder! I bought yesterday the ASRock X670E Steel Legend with ryzen 9 7950x and the sweet spot ddr5 g.skill tridentZ5 neo RGB 6000mh 16gb x2 cl30! Glad to see this motherboard in your recommended section. I was a bit worried about audio but I will see later how it sounds. The only thing I don't like in this motherboard is the second pcie x16 slot with only 4x connected. Kinda dissapointed in that but overall this motherboard looks fantastic!
Thank you for sharing! Glad you got what you needed.
I’m so grateful I found this channel. Quality content, straight to the point, useful info without bombarding us with ads and multiple sponsors per video like LTT. Thank you!!
Thank you for the great feedback! It means a lot to us. Hope you keep enjoying the content!
Don't forget to buy our screwdriver!!
@@kreygasmed7314 I mean to be fair that screwdriver looks pretty fuckin sweet
It seems a lot of motherboards are starting to skimp on audio connectors. Thanks again for this detailed overview!!
Glad it was helpful! And yes its frustrating
Just use a soundcard
Looking forward to receive my Taichi X670E. This board is a beast of motherboard, and with decent price compared to other brands.
Let us know how you like it if you can!
Thanks Jason! I need USB ports more than PCI-E slots and I don't overclock much... sounds like I may get the most basic board just for longevity purposes. PCI-E 5.0 for graphics is a total waste even for the next few years as you said, so 'maybe' I'll have a PCI-E 5.0 SSD at some point, but that's about it. I hope you'll review the B series when it's out next week!
So glad it was helpful! And we will definitely cover the B series when it's out and we have all the pricing!
Hello, you videos are always very helpful and i appreciate them. Is it possible if you can make a video explaining power stages and what motherboards to avoid when it comes to this and in general when it comes to certain features being lacking or features that increases the price but are not for everyone?
You're officially my new favorite tech tuber.
We love to hear it! (:
Thank you!
So are the changes in New 7000 series??
Watch this : 0:41 to 7:22 🐸 🔥
Very well explained
Thanks. This has helped me understand these motherboards more
Glad it helped!
I am aiming for the ASUS Proart. Thanks for reaffirming my choices :D.
Glad we could help!
Hey! Great video, but Im asking if u could do some type of video when the B series launches with some kinda of build with the new 7600x... it would be cool cuz im trying to build my first pc and idk if I should wait for this new series of cpu/mb/ram... so yeah thanks anyways for the great video ;D
You're the goat man.
One thing I'll say about motherboards, I'll overspend as much as it takes for a dr debug lol. It's crazy that the motherboard manufacturers make you pay $300+ for a couple of seven segment displays
Hello! I'm from Brazil and I love your analyses!
Thank you very much and please keep up the amazing work!!
Hello Brazil! Thank you for watching (:
Great video. Thank you! I do hope the cost of ddr5 falls further. The entry cost outlay required to use the new AMD cpus is a little high.
Agreed! Ryzen 7000 value is going to be all about the platform costs. And thank you!
It's ABSOLUTELY REDICULOUS especially with these x670e motherboards where the price is around $500 just for the motherboard and then $300 for the cheapest cpu. You can almost build a pretty decent PC ( as long as you're willing to buy a used gpu) for the same cost as the mobo and cpu. IT'S FU@KING RIDICULOUS
Picked up a 7700x with the free 32 gig ram promo from microcenter but waiting on boards. Getting a cheaper board with no PCIe5 or only 1 just does not seem to make much sense unless you plan on ripping out the board to replace it in the future. Features wise, as a content creator, I REALLY like the idea of the Asus Pro Art.... dual PCI-e 5 if I want to run dual gpus, more importantly for some fast NVMEs to work off of locally and transfers.... (each video I do is easily 100 to 200 gigs). And of course the idea of thunderbolt sounds great for color grading monitors and transferring files to either a DAS... OR 10 gig ethernet if transfering to a NAS... oh.... and it does not look like the neon/RGB fairy spit up all over it. lol. Yes, it's $500... but seems more like a "buy once, cry once" proposition for at least the next 5 years or so. with the cheaper boards... its like might as well have stayed on Ryzen 5000 and X570. =) And I am guessing the new Radeon cards coming out in November will be PCI-e 5.0.
Nice! Glad you got what you needed
Jason hits us midweek !? What a great surprise🤩
It's a crazy week! (;
Not going to lie our two cat two person team is exhausted, but happy to get this content out for those who need it!
I'd like to post some clarification surrounding USB4, USB-C and Thunderbolt, which is important for those creators depending on Thunderbolt devices.
USB-C by itself is just a connector; it doesn't specify anything about what it should be capable of (well mostly). The comparison is actually between USB4 and USB3 (and all of its substandards, like 3.1, 3.2 gen1, 3.2 gen2, 3.2 gen2x2, 10gbps, 20gbps, 40gbps, DP, PD, etc.). One thing to mention is that the extra connectivity, like higher power delivery and displayport, are constrained to be possible only through USB-C.
The dangerous thing is that USB4 is not Thunderbolt 4, despite them using the same connector type. While a Thunderbolt 4 port is backwards compatible as a USB4 port, it is not the same the other way around. Thunderbolt 4 by itself uses an entirely different protocol, but when you plug in an USB device, it basically functions as a USB4 port but with all substandards/connectivity included. A Thunderbolt port will need to have that lightning bolt symbol next to the port to indicate it being a Thunderbolt-capable port.
At the moment of writing, only the ASRock X670E Taichi offers USB4+TB4 connectivity, and the Gigabyte Aero D that is not released yet (which will have USB4+TB3). The other X670(E) boards that have USB4 (which right now are from ASUS) do NOT support the Thunderbolt protocol. Most remaining ASUS, Gigabyte and ASRock boards have a thunderbolt pin-header, for which you must buy a brand specific add-in card (AiC) that will slot into a PCIe slot (which will probably need x8 PCIe4.0 lanes?) used to add USB4+TB4 connectivity. None of these AiCs have been released yet. However, that ASUS ProArt Creator motherboard recommended for creators in the video does not have a TB4 header, and will therefore never support Thunderbolt.
So if you need Thunderbolt support (to connect devices using a Thunderbolt controller), get the ASRock X670E Taichi, wait for the Gigabyte Aero D, or get a motherboard that will have a USB4+TB4 AiC.
I'm really glad I watched this video, seems like I was about to over spend like $200 more because there were a few things I didn't understand and I was ignorant. But yes I agree with you, after the $335~ price point, the cost of these boards soar way high and there are significant diminishing returns for the money spent. Great job on the video! I'm grateful for the explanation.
Really glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching
@@PCBuilderChannel btw quick question, for boards that don't have SPDF port, do I have to buy an S/PDIF mini board separately and use motherboard's built in S/PDIF connector or is there a work around??
Amazing Analysis and very very detailed and good explanation, thank you so much 🙂👍🏻🐈
Thank you! So glad it was helpful!
pcie gen 5 graphics cards would be a game changer. Even if it wouldn't saturate a gen 4 16x lanes bc i would then have no qualms about running it at gen 5 8x lanes. This would then save me 8 lanes which i could use for a whole lot of different things
My god this video was exactly what i was searching for, greatly structured, exactly what i was asking myself with all questions covered. Thank you so much for the great content! Looking out for your video on the B650 Series :)
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for the feedback it means a lot. B650 video coming today at 10m EST!
i apriciate for the links and the review good video
Glad it was helpful!
I'm planning on getting a 4090 with a ryzen x/x3d cpu with the MSI Pro x670-p mobo. I had been waiting but it doesn't look like prices on gpu's are coming down anytime soon so I've finally decided to pull the trigger on a build. This video was exactly what I was looking for. I was almost ready to get the MSI MEG X670E ACE but decided against it after watching this. I don't think I need to buy a more expensive board just bc.
Hi, are you still using that board? And if you do, did you have any problems?
Running a 5800x rn. I might go for a 7950X with the Asus Tuf board. Seems nice for the "price"
Hey I’m looking at the asrock taichi Carrara mob would you recommend?
Best value IMO is the Steel Legend. Even tho I'd probably go for the MSI PRO x670-P, but that is now also sold out.
Thanks you , learn a lot mother board knowledge
Happy to help!
Personally I have done some upgrades of my desktop computers in the past but the main system I never changed, my first computer I did upgrade the memory once but I wouldn't do that now, I also upgraded the graphics card but that was only once, what I upgraded the most are my hard drives.
I always find myself adding more hard drives at a later point.
I'd recommend to get the best system you can buy for the budget, that is everything except for the graphics card and hard drives, just get the bare minimum hard drive space to run the OS on but get the best hard drive there is for the space that you need, get the best graphics card that you can buy for your budget but since you can always get a better graphics card later I'd have a higher priority for the core parts that you aren't going to upgrade later so I'd get a bit lesser GPU to start out and use the money for better core parts and buy the best GPU later if I have to.
I've always built my system with future proofing in mind but the last couple times that I've built my systems I haven't upgraded anything except for more hard drive space, didn't need to upgrade the GPU or anything else and my latest system I'm using for about 10 years now, with the same hardware and I only added more hard drives.
Now to keep up with the latest games I have to buy a complete new system so upgrading this old system doesn't make any sense and I think that most people do this, just keep that in mind when you buy a complete new system that the whole future proofing thing isn't really necessary and over the top and most likely you'll never even make use of it because by the time that those new hardware components are out you'll need to buy a complete new system anyways because you'll be using the old system for years and years already and it won't make sense to upgrade the old system anymore.
I always enjoy your content. Good work

amazing Jason as usual
So glad it was helpful!
It's great. I like so many RUclips tech people in this space. I like LTT, GN, Paul, PC Builder, Gamers Meld, etc, all for different reasons. You all do a different style video, deliver different levels of entertainment, and some deliver information more quickly than others. Some are more detailed, some are more summarized. But I like it all. So cheers. Even though I've already seen two other AM5 motherboard videos, I'm still watching you.
Thank you for watching! :)
LTT ? Really? Or did you just feel like you had to include them?
@@hautedaug I listed channels that I watch. I'm not sure why you felt the need to single out LTT.
Graphically Challenged is pretty good too.
Ambrosius had beautiful green eyes today.
Also, you're right, we should wait for B650.
He's a handsome house panther and he knows it! (;
Yes really looking forward to what they bring to the table
Honestly gr8 work u r doing. U made the explanation so much easy, I was getting more n more focussed in what u were saying. Keep it up.
Btw, want to get ur opinion on a PC build that I wana do. I was originally planning to do a DDR4 build with 5900x for main use of running VMs, which would make it more affordable. But since Ryzen 7000 launched, which shows a lot of performace uplift, like crossing 5+ GHz, I literally got excited. But then I learned the bitter truth, that is, Expensive CPU + Expensive MOBO + Expensive RAM + Expensive SSD PCIe5. And since AMD mentioned only for it to be there till like late 2025, should I go with Ryzen 7000 or going with 5900x/64GB RAM DDR4/1TB SSD Gen 3, will have me covered for like next 10 years for mostly running VMs?
That's a great question. I think that 5900X build will be an absolutely beast. But you might want to wait a bit and see how the Ryzen 7000 performance numbers change when the next gen gpus become available next month. For more on that see the 7900X build we did on the channel. The launch of the new Intel CPUs and Black Friday will also likely affect Ryzen 5000 and Ryzen 7000 pricing so it might not hurt to give it a few weeks and see what happens.
You are such a fontain of knowledge,that I can understand. Can I ask you, if you conecting your audio,such as headphone, microphone, by USB does the system uses the audio codec 1220 or or the 4080, in these motherboards? Or we have to connect to the rear pannel with the input jack?Does it matter?
Hey jason your videos are great thanks for putting in the work for us. I have an MSI b450 gaming plus atx mobo. Can you tell me if it has bios flashback or how I can find out. Thanks in advance.
Thanks really informative video just want to know, can I buy any of the cheap motherboards from start of the video for 7950x? there wont be any power issue right?
Is there a well supported tool for detecting what speeds are supported by a usb-c cable and/or port? Seems useful for the future.
again you are a voice of reason - thank you 😊
We try! (:
Thx for the good work
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching
Great video, thank you, but I'd like to hear/learn more about "audio codecs" on motherboard... How to know which ones are high quality and which ones are not, and what exactly is the purpose of "audio codec", what's that thing exactly, how can you use it, is it for headphones, speakers or what, etc... :)
On x670 it is pretty binary because there are no boards with "middle step" codecs like the ALC1100, ALC1200, etc. They are either entry level ones ALC897, or they immediately jump up to the best available (ALC1220 & ALC4080). I do expect we'll see some more of the middle step ones in B650 as board makers look to trim costs down a bit more. When we do the best motherboard for Ryzen 7000, we will do an audio section and go into codecs a little more in detail - just waiting for B650 to launch.
I'm waiting for 650 boards to release to see if the 670 chipsets come down a bit. Historically that happens, but I'm not super hopeful this time around.
Fingers crossed for sure!
Awesome videos, can you also make ram comparison for zen 4.
Thanks ☺️👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
Great video. Still seriously doubt I upgrade my X470 until B750 arrives, at which point DDR5 prices should be much better.
Glad you've got what you need for now!
currently building my 7700 on an asrock steel legend, was sweating when you didnt mention it in the first round of asrock boards lmfao
Not great seeing barely any of the new boards have an optical out socket for audio. I consider that a must have.
Nice to see some positive content. Ummm, Direct Storage has a 2x NVME improvement on SATA even decompressing on CPU according to tests I've seen reported; it's in line with past figures I saw on load times comparing Gen 3 & 4 NVME drives, games bottle neck on decompression until Smart Access Storage is used.
Optimum Tech has the answer to my question about changing the 95C thermal limit (see Fixing Ryzen 7000). In the BIOS under overclocking there's a configurable entry called "Platform Thermal Throttle Limit", on manual you can set a value thought it could affect performance as the cooler will disipate less heat. Using the Curve Optimizer to undervolt and setting a power limit can also be done to achieve "decent" behaviour with minimal sacrifice in performance or even a bump.
It might be a nice way to run quiet on hot days interactively, without altering fan curves or tuning for performance when running heavy loads unattended.
Thanks. I saw he posted the video but haven't watched it just yet, looking forward to his results. I honestly haven't had time to play around with that yet, as going through all these motherboard specs nearly broke me! :)
@@PCBuilderChannel It looks fun, to tinker with, under personalising your PC.
TDP, fan speeds & Thermal Limit interact with cooler choice, while volts, frequency, power limit (and long term TDP) with performance and thermals.
The dynamic management likes headroom.
New Sub I was wondering a few things off topic. I'm thinking about getting a new high end Laptop from either CLX or Falcon NW the DRX or OSISIS. Which in your opinion is the coolest temp cpu i7 10700k 11700k 12700h 3,5 ghz i9 11900k
Great review, so I'm going with Asus ROG crosshair x670e extreme!
Thank you!
Nice!
My journey with stationary PC after 30 years is coming to an end... Madness of price, pace of upgrade and performance per watt...
See the video we just launched on the channel (15 mins ago) it's actually a great time for budget building if you know where to look!
I tend to go high-end on the chipset but, if or when I upgrade to 7000, I will wait to see the B650 (E variant as well) offerings. I think there will be some solid options that will have some great features and will satisfy most users. I considered waiting till second or third gen before upgrading, but I think my 5900x should last me long enough that I might be able to skip this generation completely.
You certainly can skip! And I think its smart to wait and see
@@PCBuilderChannel I upgraded from a 2700x earlier this year. I'm impressed with how well the 2700x can hold up with most tasks. I don't doubt the 5900x will be just as capable for years to come.
@@PCBuilderChannel In relation to B Series boards, my local PC shops (Australia) had recommendations similar to the following when I used it in my build list: 'You’re running high end hardware - a budget board typically isn’t a great fit. These parts will all technically get along, but the extra stability that the higher end boards provide is beneficial - even if it only means the machine lasts longer'. But I notice you often recommend B Series boards over X Series. Why the difference in recommendation? Is it simply a case of upselling?
@@raphaelyervantian9330 he's right, if you are OCing/UV only tho...stock just go for B series if u dont need the features
as always awesome video. did you see they shot the am4 AMD CPU prices back up after dropping there new ones yesterday. the 5950x 5900x 5800x3d all shot back up 100 bucks overnight
Interesting....
I don't see a 100$ price increase, but picking the 5800x3D for example, it is up 20 bucks on average.
@@x8jason8x yesterday the 5950x was 499 on Amazon and micro center 5900 was 80 cheaper and 5800x3d was about 70 cheaper and they were for brand new. today the 5950 is 699 at Amazon
@@donaldsmith881 Yeah there are some extreme examples, but I pulled prices from everywhere on the tally. 5950x is 639 on amazon where I'm sitting though. 5900x on amazon, direct from AMD is only 368 though, so it's almost as if they know they're gonna have a rush at the 5950x.
Keep on growing sir!
Thank you we are working on it! :)
Hi Jason, like your videos. AT 8.34m you say B560, but I think you meant B650. Correct me if i am wrong. Keep up the good work!!
Doh! Yep reversed some numbers there. Thanks!
So exited for this video we need a best cooler and memory video next!!!!
We're working on it! (:
absolutly love the videosssss
but 13th gen intel might put ryzen 7000 on the chopping block becuase ddr4 and you can use older z690
like you said pcie gen 5 ssds are useless but z690 does support pcie 5.0 x16 bandwith for extra extra furureproofing

Thanks for all this great info. I admit to being overwhelmed. I feel a learn a lot but know less than before. Would you please consider an occasional video is targeted for those of us who are not hobbyist but are embarking on a rare build because we will learn something, its a good project with my grandson, and the nice sense of accomplishment. I'm really looking for good ways to find my sweet spot system.
We try to do a number of videos for new and returning builders. Start with our PC Parts explained video in the "How to build a PC" playlist on the main channel page to get started and we offer a number of general videos on RAM, CPUs, GPUs, and more there too along with specific build guides. Hope that helps!
@@PCBuilderChannel Thanks
great video, one correction: direct storage games on win11 run better wiht Gen4 NVME ssd
Any of these more expensive options would bring an advantage for people looking into building high end VR systems?
What motherboards are you looking at for Ryzen 7000? X670, X670E or B650?
Always loved the MSI Tomahawk line up, let wait and see what they come up with.
I ordered the Gigabyte X670 Aorus Elite AX with the 7600X 😃
Edit: Speccing out my first build since 2016. The current rig is an FX6300 CPU with an r9 270X GPU... Well over due for an upgrade me thinks.
I'm waiting to see b650. I don't see any features in the x chipset that I'd use that aren't in b650
I took a good look at boards last night and have settled on the asus tuf x670 e plus
Maybe in 2024. I'll keep upgrading my AM4 to the top.
Hey which cpus are better tha new intel ones or the 7000 amd series?
Hi Jason. Thank you for all of the great content and for making buy decisions easy for us. I want to make a top tier amd cpu amd gpu (when new gpus release)pc. Could you start a pc part picker list for people like me? I'm still confused about an adequate cooler and RAM to go for. Thank you in advance!
Hello! So glad you are enjoying. I've got a 7900X build you can check out on the channel now. When the new GPUs come out we will do lots of sample builds to help you design your builds so stay tuned!
@@PCBuilderChannel fantastic! Thank you for the super quick reply! I am looking forward to those videos!
oh... and the Asus Prime Pro Wifi for $350 seems like a really solid deal too.
can youu make a dedicated video on VRM?
what all to lookout and difference between doublers and all?
Probably a little too in-depth for what we do, but here is a great article to get you started: www.hardwaretimes.com/how-does-a-vrm-work-phases-doublers-inductors-and-capacitors/#:~:text=They%20function%20by%20distributing%20the,portion%20of%20the%20required%20amount.
Fantastic workstation platform! Can't wait for the zen4 x3d reviews for us gamers.
Don't expect a Zen4 vcache myself for at least a year. The heat these things are throwing isn't promising in that regard.
@@x8jason8x Agree! If the pilot product for v-cache, 5800x3d, is anything to form a baseline from it runs crazy hot. When I overclocked my not great bin of a 5800x to 4.7 ghz all core, liquid metal was needed to pull as much heat from the CPU as possible. Its really alarming that zen 4 was designed to run at 95 degrees C.
Rumor is that they will be announced at CES in January. We will be attending in person for the first time so I'm hyped!
@@PCBuilderChannel Oh really? Might be going to Vegas myself around then, the better half has never been as an adult, so she's overdue. lol
@@PCBuilderChannel That's kinda what I was thinking too.
Well, I hope you are gonna review z790 as welll....thanks!
Will do!
Love your vids Jason, I’m on a 1200$ budget and I don’t know if I should go with cheap am4 or am5
With that budget right now I'd look at Ryzen 5000 series. But you might want to wait a bit and see what prices do around Black Friday and the Intel launches
Hi Jason, awesome content as usual. I'm not an early adapter so I think I will me waiting AM5 out. Speaking of motherboards, I do need your opinion on something that involves previous gen CPUs. In late 2020 (just before prices went crazy), I built my first PC: Ryzen 5 3600 (cooled by a Deepcool Gammaxx 400 EX Air Cooler) coupled with a GTX 1660 Super on a Gigabyte b450m DS3H V2 Motherboard with Ripjaws V 16 GB (2x8) 3200MHz CL16. Initially, my storage was an XPG SX8200 Pro M.2 500GB and an old Toshiba 1TB hard drive. In 2021, I added a Samsung 870 EVO 1TB SSD. My original PSU was the Gigabyte P650 80 Plus Bronze, but got scared when news of the P750 variant blowing up and got the Corsair RM750 when it went on sale in my country 3 months ago.
All these components are housed inside a RAKK ATX case with Arctic F12 Fans.
I use the PC for work (basic MS office apps needed) and play AAA games (Halo Infinite, Resident Evil, Tomb Raider, etc) and the occasional indie that is available on Xbox Game Pass.
(whew, that was a lot of contexts there)
So, my question: Are there any advantages in upgrading my MB to an ATX? I ask because the Asus ROG Strix B450-F Strix Gaming II ATX Motherboard got cheaper recently in my country and is selling for about 120 USD. I know that you recommend this MB along with Asus TUF B450 Pro, but unfortunately, the ATX version is not available in my country.
Is it worthwhile to upgrade to the ROG Strix MB? Aesthetically, I do think it will look awesome in my ATX case, but I don’t think this reason is enough. I might have some need for the better audio codec in the future, but not at the moment. Viewing your video on MBs also taught me that ATX MBs provide better long-term durability (Before 2020, my last PC lasted me 8 years!). I know that the ROG Strix has better VRMs, but I don’t overclock at all.
Help me save money! Part of me wants to push the button and just buy the new MB because I am getting the itchy finger and want to tinker with my PC (hahaha) but the other (more practical part) is thinking that, if this does not really give substantial upgrade in performance or durability, better control myself!
For gamers, USB 4 could be viable for VR Headset in the near future.
I'm wating for around February of next year to pick up a 7700X or a 7900X and a B650E Mobo. Hopefully, prices will come down by then.
Check out our 7900X build on the channel for more in the meantime if you like
Should i get the Asus TUF Gaming X670E Plus WIFI or the ASRock X670E Steel Legend? Same Price here in Austria (EU)
Your cat knows where it's at dude. When you covered him with the video recommendation he causally moved so he would still be in the shot.
A true professional (;
I'll upgrade in 2025., I should be done with total war Warhammer 3 by then. Great video as always!
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching
