@@AnEagle I'm talking about for new builds and targeting a 3-5 year use cycle. Windows 11 is over 20gb itself and games like MW3 are close to and even over 100gb. You don't want to use more than half your ssd if you want it to be as snappy as possible so you want to target storing under 1tb... if you went with 1tb you'd be trying to squeeze that to 500gb which is possible but with the prices right now 2tb is just a better value. You are also limited to the amount of m.2 you have (without pcie add on cards and stuff) so it's better to optimize that. Long term larger capacity drives in old systems will resell easier as well.

Of course, Minecraft prefers v-cache over cores. Minecraft was initially coded to run on a single thread on a CPU. Minecraft is over a decade old. It existed before multithreading was really a thing. They've just stuck with the single threaded programming ever since. It can't utilise extra cores, so it needs that one core to be as beefy as possible to run at its best.
@Curiefeld
9 ай бұрын
To be specific, each instance of the game, or each server map, will run on a seperate thread on the CPU, regardless of how many players are on the map. For large Minecraft servers to not crash they need to either be split into multiple maps or be running mods like Folia that enable multithreading. Several servers that had huge, single maps that everyone played on were not able to upgrade to the latest version of Minecraft until Folia matured. Multiple servers with huge maps and large player counts, the largest with a world file over 20TB in size because of its gigantic map, ended up several versions behind.until Folia became a thing. Not even an overclocked 13900k was enough to run the server with that huge map on a single thread.

Ultra everything runs smooth, high frames. Built for someone else and the performance is crazy! Now the prices are in that 240$ range for 5700x might as well go up to a 7600/7700x. It is what it is. My build is a 7900x3d w/3080 (used on ebay 375$ 2 months ago ish) It’s not night and day performance (tested 5700x and 7900x3d) In higher res such as 1440/4k. 1080p is where I see the diff, less gfx cpu bound, higher gfx gpu bound.

The MSI MAG Tomahawk boards are really sweet. I've built two systems using the X570 Tomahawk. However, with the price increases that occurred around the introduction of Zen 4 processors and particularly for the AM5 motherboards, I would definitely drop back to a B650 Tomahawk board. MSI improved the board to the point it would provide the best bang for the buck in features, and offers features most people can use. Reserve the costlier X670 motherboard for the most demanding gamers.

Thank you Jason, I really like your videos, I have been studying them alot since I wanna build something once the super series hits. I hope we can see some more build choices that don't really care for RGB. That being said, I think alot of us wanna run with Nvidia because of the power consumption. 0,40-0,50 cents per kw/h is alot in Europe and AMD cards usually draw alot more juice than the green counter part. From my understanding that is especially true when in idle mode but I am no expert and can only reference what I read online. I would love to use a way cheaper AMD card but my computer is on almost 15 hours a day, while games are usually run only 2 or 3 hours, and that electricity bill is gonna cost me more than Team green card within a year.

Really love your boost your build series. Seems like every time I watch I learn something. I'm amazed that a 750w PSU is enough to power a 7900xt and a Ryzen 7600, that a deep cool ak400 is enough to cool a Ryzen 7600, and that with ddr5 on Ryzen 6000MT CL30 is the sweet point , atleast on a budget build anyway. Now I wish I could build a 7600 build instead of a 5600 build but I already have a b450 mobo with a 1700x in it, and 32gb ddr4 kit. But that's life I need to start saving more money if I want these parts.

I scored a 5600 for $118 back in late 2022, been using it ever since and I love it. Compared to my old machine (Opteron 1218) it is a massive upgrade. When Zen 5 or even Zen 6 come out, then I will be looking to build a new machine. Until then....I am good (but need to update my GFX card, o boy is mine out of date)

People who insist on building AM4 with a high-end CPU (5800X3D or 5900X) are missing out. If you build entry-level AM5, your performance will be the same and you'll spend less money. I built a smashing AM5 system (Ryzen 7600 / Radeon 6800XT) for just over $1000 and it would slap around almost any AM4 system... AND have an upgrade path in 3-5 years.

Hey great video as always ! I have a question regarding the motherboard, I have seen that some motherboard share resources with GPU & NVME SSD, for example you have x16 bus for GPU and if you share it with nvme you get x8 so it reduces performances (depends on board it can be worse) for like 3% to 10%. Do you have some advices or example of motherboards that don't really share resources to have all x16 slot only for GPU (even if I plug 2 nvme ssd) ? Thank you !

Hello, I would like to hear your thoughts about my recent build and why I chose these parts. (For this PC I need mixed usage for gaming and for my data analysis/science studies) - i5 13600kf; - Corsair Vengeance 2x32gb ddr5 5600mhz cl40; - MSI Mag mortar B760m pcie 5.0 ddr5; - ssd 980 pro 7000mb/s; - gigabyte rtx 4070 gaming oc My thoughts: CPU and Memory: I chose these looking for both performance on gaming and for my studies/future job on the area. Motherboard/GPU: Knowing that the rtx 4070 is a 12gb vram card and soon enough we'll have pcie 5.0 cards, I chose a pcie 5.0 motherboard for a future Gpu upgrade, maybe on the next rtx 6000 series. - ssd 7000 mb/s: I saw some people saying that I'll not use this speed but on the future I think this 7k speed will be the default speed for SSDs.
