What do you think of this AMD gaming PC

CPU is way overkill for gaming, you could do so much more for the price like a better monitor with Freesync.

Threadripper is not really meant for gaming.

As a purely gaming pc its a waste of money. You can build better for less money.

Agree with others.

Threadripper is completely overkill and pointless for gaming. An 8th gen i7 will play games better at a fraction of the price.

You've built an excellent workstation, but not a gaming system.
Are you adverse to buying the parts and assembling the system yourself?
What is your total budget?
Would you like us to suggest a more gaming orientated build? Maybe not one you'd build yourself but to specify as a custom build.
I'll guess from the Mwave list you're in Australia?

holy crap man... You have completely run up the wrong tree

for those games, and in fact MOST online games intel is the way to go because the VAST majority dont even use more than 2 cores


i7 8700k build would completely and utterly trounce that setup you posted and probably cost HALF


jesus you even had 144hz monitor BOY would you have been so utterly disappointed on your workstation when you tried to game on it XD


ryzen is not good enough for high refresh rate gaming either


make yourself an i5 8400 build

If you still want a lot of power and want for future proof. Beast for gaming. 32 Gigs because your original one took 64. 32 is plenty. Includes the monitor. Save the other $6k for investing in something else.

You went from a $10k build to what was given to you from Mwave by ArchitSahu which is better and cheaper than the AMD build you changed from Threadripper. Your last post makes no sense.

We're not being fanboys here, nor are we wasting your hard earned Dollars, just trying to give you the fastest system for your money.
For gaming on a fast 1080 display, Intel is the way to go, and online games can really suffer under an AMD CPU, they want fast ( high GHz ) clocks and efficient cores, which Intel has. I'm not saying an AMD Ryzen build will run games like a slideshow, far from it, just that Intel will give your system more speed.

My choices:

My reasons:

Cheaper than your AMD build it'll run rings around it on a high refresh 1080 display.

CPU: Couldn't see any reason to go for a i7, it'll be wasted on online games while the i5 I selected is nearly as fast elsewhere.

Memory: 16 Gb is more than enough for gaming/home use, add more if you wish but there's no real need for it.

SSD: There's no real benefit from the Pro version of the 960 for a home user and the Evo is more than $300 cheaper.

GPU: Yes, it's massive overkill for a slower display but that big GTX1080Ti will match dual RX580s without the inevitable Crossfire hassles.

Switched to a less expensive, but still quality PSU and kept that huge Corsair case along with a Blu-ray drive.

Win 10 is the way to go unless you really want to stick with Win 7.

A 240Hz display is really going to show off that GTX1080Ti, no matter what games you throw at it, and don't be worried about the Freesync part, it'll work just fine with an Nvidia card, just set the monitor refresh rate to 'highest available' and vsync to 'off' in the Nvidia Control Panel 'manage 3d settings' section for awesome, superfast gaming.

ALL the parts in the list show as available at the Mwave website, PcPartpicker just selects the cheapest for its listing but Mwave isn't always the cheapest, so the total price will be closer to <>$4200Aus (at a guess, but it'll be well under the $5000 for the AMD build in your first post ).

And yes, I deliberately missed keyboard/mouse-your choice here.

Watch the language please

question:

if you knew what you were going to waste your money on before hand, and are not willing to listen to actual advice

why come on here and waste all the poster's time?

RX Vega 64 is more powerful and better for 1440p and 1080p gaming. Usually gives higher average FPS and a higher count of FPS. Should last longer and gives you more options.

The RX 580 is not a bad option, it is equivalent to the GTX 1070 and is not a bad option for 1440p and 1080p. However, at 1440p, it would not give constant 60 FPS for some games at ultra settings, something the Vega 64 should technically do for nearly all games.

Er, how did I get picked as the solution? or was that just a mistake? Either way, since it's me, I've taken it off, if you want to reselect me feel free.

In the meantime, if you can find a Vega 64 it's a stronger card than the Vega 56 and better suited to your needs it will really come in handy if you opt for the 1440 monitor linked by ArchitSahu while the R7 1800X in his build is currently top of the line from AMD for gaming, with a little luck Australian prices have also take a little drop recently.
