I got 6300 fx cpu for kind of a server machine caz i didn't wanna mount all of this tb hdd s on my threadripper system and you might be surprised but that cpu does a great job for handling almost 10 tb of data .(4 pc is linked to this system)
ok why are fx CPU´s bad? because i have a fx 6300 but its a six core cpu and you can overclock it to 4.4 GHz or when you are lucky to 5 GHz so why is it bad?
Just look for a new graphics card man I buy and flip pc’s and parts just bought a 1050ti for 40$ and built my buddy a pc with an i5-2400 and 10 gbs of ram with a 500 gig ssd for 140$ bought to surprise him with a build based off an i5 - 8400k just look man and you’ll find something
Was thinking that 5600xt, 5700 or even 5700xt. I got mine for $300 used, but selling 970 and having a $400 budget could potentially get a new 5700xt. Or wait it out and hope 3060 is in the right price range. Or big navi maybe?
Ran a oc'd 965 BE until nearly 2019. It's a soldier. If you're anything like me, you're held back more by your GPU. Mine was a 2GB GTX660. That was holding it back more than the cpu.
I have the i7 990x released in 2011. 6 cores 12 threads, stock speed 3.46Ghz overclocked to 5Ghz. Runs like a charm. Can play all new triple A games with all settings ultra at 1080p with a fps of 120 (max). So i don't even in the slightest do i think about upgrading my system (for now).
@@opoxious1592 DUDE what voltage you running at and what bclk and multi? I can only do 4.5Ghz on mine @1.4v and anything higher requires significantly high voltage. I couldn't even break the 5Ghz barrier for HWBot OC. Temps and cooling?
@@zarmaanful Voltage is just under or just above 1.50v (Have to check bios first for the exact number). Max temps at full load 72c or 161.6 F. At first i also had problems reaching this speed, by using a to high BCLK. If you increase the BLCK than also all other components (except GPU) will be overclocked in your system, increasing the chance of instability. Therefore i have set the BLCK to 100 (lowest setting possible), with a x50 multiplier. And for cooling i use the air cooler "Gamerstorm Assassin III". This cooler is nearly as good as liquid cooling. The difference is only a few degreese in favor of liquid coolers. Please let me know of you get better results, if you are going to try the overclock? Thanks 👍🏻

I like how jay has constructive criticism and makes it fun to watch. Most other tech RUclipsrs just straight up roast and nitpick rather than looking at the bigger picture
You must be new to RUclips, welcome. Rule one of YT is never trust the thumbnail, nothing but lies and deceit. Rule two of YT is never trust the title, nothing but click bait. Rule three of YT is never trust Linus to hold anything, ANYTHING. Rule four of YT is the more hair you have whether glorious locks like GN Steve or the most holy of beards, they are the trustworthy chosen ones who shall lead us to overclocking salvation.

Yeah that was a little elitist, I agree. Loved mine, ran FS 2020 1080p High at 23-27 FPS which is okay for a flight sim. Used money i had set aside for GPU on a new Ryzen 5 combo. Love both!
But that's true, unless you are fine really subpar gaming experience and excessive power bills, then keep FX, otherwise it's time to move on. Even a cheap build with B460 board, i3 10100F and 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 will annihilate any FX CPU. And whole setup is less than 300 USD.
I had to clean out a PC for a client recently, the computer wouldn’t even successfully turn on. It would start up, shut down, start up, shit down... I had a feeling I knew what the issue was. The client was a smoker, had 4 dogs, kept the computer on the floor, and had a dog bed right next to the tower. I took an air compressor to the fans and non of them would even turn.
Wow. Just... wow. I've done some bad systems in my day, usually 10-15 year old systems that've never been opened in their lives and have multiple blocked heat sinks. My crown jewel is the 20 year old file server I serviced. Dust bunnies across the entire room for literal days as I found my way around that system. But the machine you just described... in all my years of fixing computers, I've never gotten one THAT bad.
Lol Jay made me go through my whole build double checking everything. I am happy with my first build. I had the confidence due to your channel to try my own build. Just wanted to say thank you. Now to just get my hands on a 3080 haha.
The PC with the dust in the radiator reminded me of this: I should have taken pictures of my PowerEdge when I found it on the street... It looked like the previous owner ran their server in a kitchen while still using the kitchen as normal... The first thing I did after taking it home was taking it apart and wash every part of the case and the fans because the dust inside it had formed a crust.
Also he said “sell your FX system it’s a decade old.” Meanwhile a Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 is slower then a FX4300 in most multithreaded workloads. And a FX6300 or FX8350 are much better then the Q8400. And still Jays’ advice for the Q8400 owner is “upgrade your gpu.” Am I missing something? I haven’t tested Q8400 or lower end FX systems in a while but pretty sure I am correct. If I was the Q8400 owner I would upgrade to a newer platform (AMD Ryzen or Intel) and keep the GTX970 and upgrade that further down the line. But that’s just me 😉 Still, nice video, fun to watch 👍😀
I doubt this will ever reach, but we did recently get an old tower to recycle. It's an atx tower from Gateway that came with Windows 98. DM me if you'd like and i could work out shipping it from Wisconsin.
Ehh... if it looks cool like the last one, especially since I like the aquarium sound, the first thing I think of is how much effort it will take to maintain it. Pretty much any RGB can be accomplished with cheap lights from autozone
Does cable management cost money? No, it don't so you can manage that cables and get a job. If you are -18 is not a problem, there are ways to get money. You can do it just don't leave it for tomorrow, because it'll never happen...
Soft tubing in home watercooling rigs is pretty awesome. It simple, quick, and allows you to make changes without taking it all apart. I leave my long run from the CPU to the front radiator a bit long to allow me easy access the memory and a few other maintenance reasons. I know it doesn't look exactly the best but it servers its purpose. On top of everything else I'm pretty much the only person that sees my rig.
@@geogaming369 ok? And? What does that have to do with my original comment? And what does 15 year olds have anything to with anything? I'll be 29 tomorrow.
I paid $900 for a 2600x on a Strix b350f with 32gb 3000mhz Corsair Vengeance LED Duke RTX 2070 OC, 256gb m.2 boot drive, 3tb HDD, EVGA G3 fully modular 750w 80+ gold PSU. I simply bought a new x570 along with a 3700x and 32gb of Corsair Vengeance RGB at 3200mhz and only spent a grand total of $200 more doing that, but I did trade a Ps4 for the 3700x, but I only paid $100 for that so it was quite worth it. (I ended up spending another $50 on a 550w PSU, got a 1tb m.2 for my new mobo, and paired the 2600x with an RX 5700 that I traded a PSVR for that I also only paid $100 for) got my 13yo nephew an entire 'budget' (compared to mine) system, and my own as well, for under $1.5k

I definitely have a problem with cable management outside the machines. Wires everywhere. The suggestion for long power strips mounted to the backside of the desk is excellent. I'll be doing that. Thanks, Jay.
I built my brother's setup on an Alex desk. At first I was like "oh cool, I can stuff all the cable in the cable management bar, and don't go through the hassle I went through for my own setup !" Then I realised that the setup would be centered, with the monitor excatcly in the middle of the desk, where the slit hole is for the cables to come out... And also that the PC sits half on the desk, and half on the little door that close the thing : If I want to acces the cables, I have to move the screen and the PC. That was not easy to cram everything in without it looking like garbage, but I achieved it, and honestly, once it is done, no need to think about it again... ... until you upgrade something. My brother had a 60Hz screen, anf wanted to go 144Hz. Fine, I mean why didn't he have one already? I let him pick one up online... He chose the cheapest "good" monitor with ajustable height and stuff, a LG panel. I overlooked the fact that the powersupply is not embedded into the monitor, but is an external powerbrick. So, I can't just swap the monitors keeping the same power cable, so I need to remove that cable, therefore moving the PC, etc a fking mess. And then I realised the powerbrick doesn't fit on the powerstrip to allow me to close the fucking door, I had to search for a freakin' power extention to be able to fit it, there is easily 2 to 2.5m of useless cable in that cable management compartment now. Morality : Use the Alex only for laptop setups

There is a problem to that theory. Not saying you specifically at all, but MOST kids these days have setups that make my R9-3950 look like it’s one of the FX setups from 10 years ago because these kids order it all with Mommy and Daddy’s credit card!
From what I've seen on other channels, you don't want the headache of your request... All it takes is one hard-working kid with a better system than "most" for seemingly the whole world going bananas, slamming out entitlement and jealousy-laden bickering and "shaming" the kids while having no understanding of their situation... It's truly disheartening. Sadly, that's the state the world's in these days; people more prone to disrespect than appreciate anything they don't understand... But good on you Austinn, for knowing good money management skills as well as having the drive and determination to be where you're at with your goals & wants. 👍
Posiris not sure on the exact amount but I currently have a 2060ko ultra, Intel core i5 8400, 16 gigs memory, 1 tb hard drive (and a 250gig ssd for Windows), a 700w power supply, and a decent motherboard I forgot the name.
future category idea: "legacy", "father-son", or whatever you want to call it, multi-pc setups. I need to create a desk space to setup my newer pc beside the older one that my boy has inherited. Once I do get that done I will send you pics with the story behind the builds. Thanks for the awesome infotainment Jay!
I like this idea, im slowly convincing my gf to let me build myself a new pc and then customize my current one to her liking or, upgrade my parts I want to upgrade then build her a pc with a few of my old parts.
What about father-daughter(s) setups? I have a desk setup behind me with my PC, 2 PCs for my girls and my homeserver. The PCs are connected via long cables to monitors/peripherals on the table that we all use our PCs at.
@@emu071981 yeah that goes right along with my idea. "Father-son" is just relative to my personal scenario. The idea behind "legacy" was not so much legacy systems but more like a legacy of parent to child. Like hand-me-downs. But your situations falls under "or whatever you want to call it".

@@angelic3276 yea that was my last build, and it wasn't enough for homeworks or other Modern VR titles. Plus with next gen coming this year. That CPU will not be relevant anymore. Unless you like playing on medium or low. It's not good enough for me. I upgraded my CPU first and kept the same GPU for a little bit, and with the that i7 I had to go on low settings with half life alyx. With the new CPU I got I was able to do high settings without changing the GPU. It's not a good CPU anymore if you play on high and or ultra. And you want more than 60 fps.
I've been a PC enthusiast and owner since early 1990s, and I'll never get the need/fascination with how a PC looks. I always put mine next to the desk out of view, I like it for what it does, not what it looks like. Some were very good looking, some weren't, but I never got this either way. I miss the old pizza box desktop cases, where we used it as a monitor stand :)
Really enjoy your videos! Struggle with cable management, especially external with all of my tinkering and such. Rarely does anyone but me see my system, nor am I out to impress anyone. Was quite strict on neatness and organization into my thirties, but as I've gotten older everything is more cluttered and less tidy. My systems have never come anywhere close to the winter scene of one PC in a previous setups video, keep it clean in that respect.
Did you even look? Because Jay has multiple videos on that one from only 2 months before your comment and another from 2 years ago on top of his countless build videos where he does cable management and shows what he does.
@@oofgordy4634 Yeah, I did. Right after I typed that message, I went back to my recommended videos and there was a video from Jayz2Cents for cable management sitting right there on top. I had though about coming back and mention it in this post, so thanks for reminding me. The RUclips algorithm is scary.
Hey now, I'm still running FX processors in my homelab. They work great for running a few k8s workloads and my plex server. I bought this stuff before Ryzen existed and Intel was out of my price range. I wanted cheap and relatively power efficient (compared to actual server hardware) homelab gear and they fit the bill (microcenter bundles ftw). And honestly at this point, it would cost more for me to sell them and upgrade than to just keep running them until they die.
I’m still rockin an FX8350 (though my Ryzen 3600X just came in the mail today) at 1440p with an RX580 and getting pretty good performance out of my system. It was a great bang for the buck cpu at the time that has held up well over the past 6 years.
@@12Music72 i know. The worst part of this entire thing, is that i have all the money to biuld a new pc, but my dad does not allow. He says "just upgrade it" it'll be fine. Once i looked at the prices for those old processors, i understood that i would be spending all my budget for a 1/10 the preformence.
My dad won’t let me build a gaming pc, I ordered the parts with my money. Now all I’m waiting on is a RTX 3070. Oh should I get intel 9th gen or 10th gen
@Da Mighty Shabba There are hundreds of RUclips Videos showing you why it's a relatively bad idea to try and game on a workstation CPU (and more importantly mainboard). Watch some of those before you make your decision. Also, out of the about 10000 new games coming out each year, only 6 (maybe 7 next year) are capable of really using more than 4 threads, so ... Before you spend money, read some benchmarking articles and really figure out which CPU can give you the most performance per $. Or get something close to a 3700X because that's what the next generation of XBOX & PS4 will use, so it's a pretty safe bet for the next decade.
I’m still rocking an 8350 and dual 970’s, all on custom water!!! Runs everything well enough that I play, at high enough graphics and FPS, why build a new system? I don’t spend $300/yr on all the latest games and try to keep up with the Jones’, so I don’t need top tier hardware. I think most of the tech-tubers have become spoiled a bit with all the access they have to hardware (freebies or income to buy outright), that they forget you don’t need to play on ultra settings to enjoy a game!

I was building computers for years. Ended up taking 15 years "off"(just had an old XP desktop and at the time a reasonably good laptop) so once I got back into building. I had no problem building it but what I was used to was IDE cables and graphic cards were powered by the PCIe slot(so no cables to worry about internally). I don't know how I ended up watching J2C(4 or 5 years back), but that was when I realized that NOW cases have space behind the MB for cabling. My first 2 builds worked, but looked messy. One was for my Brother-in-Law(he still uses it) the other was my personal build. Well, once I started watching it sent me into some what of a tail spin. I "had" to rework all the cables in my on rig(BiL is still working with the spaghetti wiring, but there's no window so he can't see it). I've since built 3 new personal rigs(although I probably need another few before I've got cable management down) and have been doing decent on cable mgmt. Appriciate You, Kyle and Paul giving some idea what can be done.
6:23 didn't Steve from Gamers Nexus say in one of his videos that he still uses and FX at home? Undervolted and underclocked if i remember correctly...
I ended up initially spending money on a (replacement) power supply for an FX System just to end up deciding to build a new budget computer and starting over (idle and even gaming temps were like 78 on the FX once things got going. A friend literally asked if I was trying to melt something, I now realize that the answer to that question was my PC). I passed the decade mark and realized just how old my CPU was when I started shopping for a new one.

FX 8350 is ok @ WOT & WOWS + e sport games.
I have the i7 990x released in 2011.
6 cores 12 threads, stock speed 3.46Ghz overclocked to 5Ghz.
Runs like a charm.
Can play all new triple A games with all settings ultra at 1080p with a fps of 120 (max).
So i don't even in the slightest do i think about upgrading my system (for now).
@@opoxious1592 DUDE what voltage you running at and what bclk and multi?
I can only do 4.5Ghz on mine @1.4v and anything higher requires significantly high voltage.
I couldn't even break the 5Ghz barrier for HWBot OC.
Temps and cooling?
@@zarmaanful Voltage is just under or just above 1.50v (Have to check bios first for the exact number).
Max temps at full load 72c or 161.6 F.
At first i also had problems reaching this speed, by using a to high BCLK.
If you increase the BLCK than also all other components (except GPU) will be overclocked in your system, increasing the chance of instability.
Therefore i have set the BLCK to 100 (lowest setting possible), with a x50 multiplier.
And for cooling i use the air cooler "Gamerstorm Assassin III".
This cooler is nearly as good as liquid cooling.
The difference is only a few degreese in favor of liquid coolers.
Please let me know of you get better results, if you are going to try the overclock?
Thanks 👍🏻

But that's true, unless you are fine really subpar gaming experience and excessive power bills, then keep FX, otherwise it's time to move on. Even a cheap build with B460 board, i3 10100F and 16GB 2666MHz DDR4 will annihilate any FX CPU. And whole setup is less than 300 USD.

I had to clean out a PC for a client recently, the computer wouldn’t even successfully turn on. It would start up, shut down, start up, shit down... I had a feeling I knew what the issue was. The client was a smoker, had 4 dogs, kept the computer on the floor, and had a dog bed right next to the tower. I took an air compressor to the fans and non of them would even turn.
Dammmmmo
RAM swap and cleaning both RAM + Slots solves 80% problems people come to me with.
OH. EW. OH MY GOD EWW
Wow. Just... wow.
I've done some bad systems in my day, usually 10-15 year old systems that've never been opened in their lives and have multiple blocked heat sinks.
My crown jewel is the 20 year old file server I serviced. Dust bunnies across the entire room for literal days as I found my way around that system.
But the machine you just described... in all my years of fixing computers, I've never gotten one THAT bad.
I worked on a customers computer once, he smoked in his office and yeah his keyboard was that stained yellow. Somehow his computer still ran though.
Lol Jay made me go through my whole build double checking everything. I am happy with my first build. I had the confidence due to your channel to try my own build. Just wanted to say thank you. Now to just get my hands on a 3080 haha.
The PC with the dust in the radiator reminded me of this:
I should have taken pictures of my PowerEdge when I found it on the street... It looked like the previous owner ran their server in a kitchen while still using the kitchen as normal... The first thing I did after taking it home was taking it apart and wash every part of the case and the fans because the dust inside it had formed a crust.
BodgeMaster you found a server in the street? That’s pretty cool

Also he said “sell your FX system it’s a decade old.”
Meanwhile a Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 is slower then a FX4300 in most multithreaded workloads. And a FX6300 or FX8350 are much better then the Q8400. And still Jays’ advice for the Q8400 owner is “upgrade your gpu.”
Am I missing something? I haven’t tested Q8400 or lower end FX systems in a while but pretty sure I am correct.
If I was the Q8400 owner I would upgrade to a newer platform (AMD Ryzen or Intel) and keep the GTX970 and upgrade that further down the line.
But that’s just me 😉

Me: Looks under my desk

I definitely have a problem with cable management outside the machines. Wires everywhere. The suggestion for long power strips mounted to the backside of the desk is excellent. I'll be doing that. Thanks, Jay.
I built my brother's setup on an Alex desk. At first I was like "oh cool, I can stuff all the cable in the cable management bar, and don't go through the hassle I went through for my own setup !"
Then I realised that the setup would be centered, with the monitor excatcly in the middle of the desk, where the slit hole is for the cables to come out... And also that the PC sits half on the desk, and half on the little door that close the thing : If I want to acces the cables, I have to move the screen and the PC. That was not easy to cram everything in without it looking like garbage, but I achieved it, and honestly, once it is done, no need to think about it again...
... until you upgrade something. My brother had a 60Hz screen, anf wanted to go 144Hz. Fine, I mean why didn't he have one already? I let him pick one up online... He chose the cheapest "good" monitor with ajustable height and stuff, a LG panel. I overlooked the fact that the powersupply is not embedded into the monitor, but is an external powerbrick. So, I can't just swap the monitors keeping the same power cable, so I need to remove that cable, therefore moving the PC, etc a fking mess. And then I realised the powerbrick doesn't fit on the powerstrip to allow me to close the fucking door, I had to search for a freakin' power extention to be able to fit it, there is easily 2 to 2.5m of useless cable in that cable management compartment now.

Hey now, I'm still running FX processors in my homelab. They work great for running a few k8s workloads and my plex server. I bought this stuff before Ryzen existed and Intel was out of my price range. I wanted cheap and relatively power efficient (compared to actual server hardware) homelab gear and they fit the bill (microcenter bundles ftw). And honestly at this point, it would cost more for me to sell them and upgrade than to just keep running them until they die.

Does't hardware unboxed have a recent video showing the FX bottleneck?
@@12Music72i think so. The problem is that my dad doesn't "belive" what he says
@@ProtoSparky Ah, people that don't accept literal statistics are a pain..
@@12Music72 i know. The worst part of this entire thing, is that i have all the money to biuld a new pc, but my dad does not allow.
He says "just upgrade it" it'll be fine. Once i looked at the prices for those old processors, i understood that i would be spending all my budget for a 1/10 the preformence.
My dad won’t let me build a gaming pc, I ordered the parts with my money. Now all I’m waiting on is a RTX 3070. Oh should I get intel 9th gen or 10th gen
"8400 is a little lacking... 970 is showing its age"
*Cries in 4690 and R9 390*
Sits quietly with R7 370
isn't the 970 worse then an R9 390?
I actually upgraded from an FX system (FX-6300) TODAY, and it makes such a difference!
6:23 I'm running FX-8350 and GTX970 still doing ok with games =)
Yes, but you are not doing ok with Jay. And isn't that what really counts?
@Da Mighty Shabba There are hundreds of RUclips Videos showing you why it's a relatively bad idea to try and game on a workstation CPU (and more importantly mainboard). Watch some of those before you make your decision.
Also, out of the about 10000 new games coming out each year, only 6 (maybe 7 next year) are capable of really using more than 4 threads, so ...
Before you spend money, read some benchmarking articles and really figure out which CPU can give you the most performance per $.
Or get something close to a 3700X because that's what the next generation of XBOX & PS4 will use, so it's a pretty safe bet for the next decade.
Same but 960
Same - 8350 OC'ed to 4.5GHz with a GTX 1070 keeps my games maxed at 1080p 60Hz (monitor refresh rate).
I’m still rocking an 8350 and dual 970’s, all on custom water!!! Runs everything well enough that I play, at high enough graphics and FPS, why build a new system? I don’t spend $300/yr on all the latest games and try to keep up with the Jones’, so I don’t need top tier hardware. I think most of the tech-tubers have become spoiled a bit with all the access they have to hardware (freebies or income to buy outright), that they forget you don’t need to play on ultra settings to enjoy a game!

I’m learning magic right now thanks to his advice.
I've watched this video twice, Jay and Phil just seem to be hanging out and it's actually helpful to most us avg people
Hey, nice Toes BRO... WTF?😆😂
😂
I do have nice toes...
Hi.................................................................................................................................
i live in a place with high humidity and dust, that thing IS dust, i dont have pets or do any weird shit and have it like that if i dont clean it
Watching this for inspiration for my pc management. I’ll be sure to send photos when it’s finished.
Hi.
If you are reading this, you may be wondering why.
This is due to the fact that a part of your brain has triggered your eye muscles to expand and contract to aim your pupil at these set of pixels.
By the time you reach this line, you may or may not have a preset instruction in your brain triggered to make a set of grey pixels under this comment blue by expanding your index finger with enough force to trigger an event on this device.
I hope you have found this useful.
So Jay, have you talked with Steve at Gamersnexus lately? Maybe you should send him a pc to replace that FX he is still rocking.
No FX? How dare you! My FX is part of the first system I ever built back in 2012. It might not have a place in my main rig forever - but it will always have a place in my heart!
3:21 Impressive that he has eight sticks of RAM.
I will title this video: "People who dont know the second panel of the case" oh wait it's a very long title...
"People who don't deserve their pc" oh wait it's a very long title..
"call a doctor for me".
I was building computers for years. Ended up taking 15 years "off"(just had an old XP desktop and at the time a reasonably good laptop) so once I got back into building. I had no problem building it but what I was used to was IDE cables and graphic cards were powered by the PCIe slot(so no cables to worry about internally). I don't know how I ended up watching J2C(4 or 5 years back), but that was when I realized that NOW cases have space behind the MB for cabling. My first 2 builds worked, but looked messy. One was for my Brother-in-Law(he still uses it) the other was my personal build. Well, once I started watching it sent me into some what of a tail spin. I "had" to rework all the cables in my on rig(BiL is still working with the spaghetti wiring, but there's no window so he can't see it). I've since built 3 new personal rigs(although I probably need another few before I've got cable management down) and have been doing decent on cable mgmt. Appriciate You, Kyle and Paul giving some idea what can be done.
Jay: "Stop Using FX!
Me: *Cries in fx 6100*
Pc parts are stupid expensive where i live, cant upgrade. i even use a stock FM2 Cooler
Hello brother
6:23 didn't Steve from Gamers Nexus say in one of his videos that he still uses and FX at home? Undervolted and underclocked if i remember correctly...
Yeah. Steve still runs FC at home. This feels like a start of a battle between the two channels.
Im still using a fx8350 with an rx580. I can play modern titles 1080p higher or medium settings 60 fps. Its still relevant for modern gaming
Yup he did
@@oelshami they've already fought it out smh
I ended up initially spending money on a (replacement) power supply for an FX System just to end up deciding to build a new budget computer and starting over (idle and even gaming temps were like 78 on the FX once things got going. A friend literally asked if I was trying to melt something, I now realize that the answer to that question was my PC). I passed the decade mark and realized just how old my CPU was when I started shopping for a new one.
