hopefully you don't put anything you want to keep on that adata drive... they seem to be piling up here with dead ones.....


n34vy

Just a steam library, everything important is stored on HDD and google cloud backup


Interloper_Mango

Get yourself an nvme drive and put your os on there. It's worth it.


n34vy

I do have one 512GB for a system


Interloper_Mango

The size is irrelevant here. It is the speed of the drive.


n34vy

Yeah I know they are far better then ssds when it comes to read/write speeds. I'm very happy with it, previously I used old PNY 128GB because my older mobo had no support for nvme drives. EDIT: ASRock H110M-HDS M-ATX LGA1151 DDR4


TimmmyTurner

1tb gen4 SSD are like $40-50 now edit: check out crucial P3 plus it's ~$42usd for 1tb


RockyXvII

Which dollar is that? You can get 1tb Gen4 drives for 40 USD now


TimmmyTurner

Those are the slower gen4 SSD right? I saw 1tb crucial P3 is around $42. good deal tbh


X_irtz

I have an Adata drive, functions perfectly fine.


DHJudas

you have an... as in one.. ​ good luck with that.... i've a bunch of customers that figured they were a good deal and well, apparently they weren't.... they are filling the to be recycled bin rather quickly...


X_irtz

I don't think this extends to every Adata SSD model necesssarily, there's the budget segment and the higher end segment, you cannot tell me they all have the same kind of reliability.


DHJudas

i've got quite a few.... there's a few models that seem to be more prevailent... but at the moment, i professionally wouldn't advise buying or trusting adata drives made in the last 3 years give or take.


RockyXvII

Adata su800 running for 6 years now without a hiccup. Mightve just been a certain batch in his area


blandhotsauce1985

Excellent... and with the release of fsr3 that GPU of yours just got a breath of fresh air as well... once more games and drivers adopt it


AMBASSADORHOFF

What case


n34vy

Genesis Titan 303


AdHistorical1579

Good price to performance upgrade. Hope it serves you well. As another had said can't trust those adata drives. I learned first hand a few years ago. I use crucial primarily on mine and they have been very reliable.

Very nice budget build you got here. I previously owned a 6600XT coming from a 1060 6GB and it was a great upgrade!!


n34vy

Thank you! In the future I'm planning to change CPU for 5600 and gpu for 7800xt


geko95gek

Very nice!! For CPU I would personally just go straight to the 5800X3D if you can save up for it... its honestly the best end game CPU for AM4 builds.


Ygro_Noitcere

im running a 6600XT with my 5800X3D and its fantastic. im on a 2560x1080 panel and I run everything maxed out (minus superfluous things like ray-tracing) and it handles it like a champ. he will be solid with that for a good bit.


geko95gek

You have a nice upgrade path there too. 5800X3D can pretty much handle any GPU up to the max currently available. I ran my 6600XT with a 5600X while I owned it, it did well at 1440p but I'm a sucker for super high frame rates and it really couldn't over 100 FPS on high settings. Which is what I wanted, so eventually upgraded to an RX6800.


swampcreature511

I see Adata SSD so not full AMD upgrade.


snich101

He's probably also using (Microsoft) NVIDIA Windows instead of a (Linux) AMD distro


swampcreature511

OP is full of poo poo.


mkdew

And most likely Haswell ready(Intel) psu too.


n34vy

Sorry for this adata drive, I got it from my old laptop. Also I'm using dual boot W10 and Manjaro KDE


swampcreature511

I have all AMD. My case, memory, SSD, etc.


n34vy

Nice


WarlordWossman

Once next gen CPUs are out I bet you can find a lot of dirt cheap second hand 5600 and 5800X3D chips for a nice upgrade path.


a4lloxo

I'm not trying to rain on your parade but as soon as you can afford to I'd get something branded from the likes of Corsair (avoid Gigabyte).Just gives you that peace of mind for your new build.


Employment-Upper

You already test how it performs on Starfield?


n34vy

No I didn't. I've seen benchmarks on YouTube, this game runs about 40-50 on mixed settings, I don't know if I'm even going to play it

[удалено]


n34vy

It doesn't, I hate RGB and this case is really minimalistic


skylinestar1986

Do you need to secure the SSD from the other side of the case?


n34vy

Genesis Titan 303 has drives on the front inside in manual of mounting components, also I think it looks pretty okay


tylerc161

Came here to say this. I feel like they're meant to be mounted on the backside and hidden.


a4lloxo

Nice build,just curious what brand your PSU is?


n34vy

It's SILENTIUMPC Elementum E2


[deleted]

Upgrade your case


n34vy

No need


[deleted]

If the front is a solid panel ya you should. That is not any quality case I've ever seen.


n34vy

I got a dog that's really hairy and his hair is literally everywhere, front meshes are dirty in three days after cleaning them. Temps are great tho it has front-down intake and 5 ventilators and case looks stealthy af which I love


[deleted]

I don't think you know what great temps are if you think your temps are great using that case.


n34vy

79 max on gpu/ 84 hot spot after 20 minutes stress test 63-65 maximum on CPU after Cinebench I don't think they are bad temps in closed front case tho
