Hi there, hope I put this in the right category.
I have a setup from 2011 and I'm thinking about updating it. I want to use it for video editing (mostly 1080p in Adobe) and productivity.
The build I have now:
CPU: Intel Core i5 760
GPU: Nvidia Geforce GTX 460
Motherboard: Asus P7P55D-E LX
PSU: Corsair CX500
Housing: NZXT Crafted Lexa S Black (8E-LSNL1-UGB)
HD: Hitachi - Deskstar 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM
SSD: Crucial - M4 128GB 2.5"
RAM: I don't know the manufacturer. Specs: Type: DDR3, Size: 16GB, Channel: Dual, NB Frequency: 2138.6 MHz: DRAM Frequency 668.3 MHz
CL,tRCD,tRP: 9 clocks, tRAS: 24 clocs, tRFC 107 clocks.
Build I want to switch to:
*CPU: Ryzen 7 1700x
*CPU Cooler: Corsair Hydro Series H100i v2 CPU
*Motherboard: ASUS Prime X370-A, Socket-AM4
*RAM: HyperX Fury DDR4 2133MHz 8GB (x2)
GPU: Geforce 1050 (75$) / Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1050 Ti Windforce (105$) / Asus dual GTX 1060 3gb OC (150$) / MSI RX 570 4GB (150$)
The components marked with a * is offered together so it's hard for me to change theese.
The price in parenthesis is the price I'm paying for it used.
-----------------------
My main question is if I can still use my Corsair CX500 PSU. I have pushed my budget and really don't want to buy another if it's not a must. Pcpartpicker claims my build, if I use the GeForce 1050 Ti, uses 470 watts. How real is the danger of the PSU exploding or destroying my components?
If i need a new PSU, whats the most affortable?
I also wonder if my new build will fit in the NZXT LEXA housing. What about fitting a new PSU?
If i combine my old PSU, HD, SSD and housing, will everything be compatible? And will I need to buy some other components or cables?
Taken the prices in the parenthesis and my video editing use into consideration, what is the most bang for the buck when it comes to GPU?
Can I combine the old and new RAM to get 32 gb?
---------------------------
Would be really happy for answers. Im quite stuck here..
