Putting my computer together today. (first one ever.) So far I have a r9 390, 990Fxa motherboard with a fx 8350 processor, corsair 650W gold plus, and obviously a monitor keyboard and mouse. I also have a Evo fan that I bought plus the case for the whole thing, don't exactly remember name of it. I know that I need thermal paste for the processor and probably gonna buy wind 7 so I can upgrade to 10. Anything else though? I think that's it. Ty
Forgot to add, have 8GB ballisticks ram, and a 2TB Toshiba Hard drive.
Pic related is me.

>AMD GPU with weak AMD CPU.
Are you aware of GPU Driver CPU overhead?

>>53770384
Pick one.
Where is the SSD, anon.
Don't you tell me you are building a computer in 2016 without one.
>>53770246
Your CM 212 comes with a tube of thermal compound, It looks like a decent budget build. But i would consider changing out everything for Intel and Nvidia components later on

>implying it isn't
Also, if you want windows on the cheap, go look at http://www.kinguin.net/ They have some good deals on windows licenses, you have to get the ISO file for the one you prefer though

OP is obviously a major poorfag
>>53770541
even a poorfag can afford a small SSD, they don't cost that much more than HDDs anymore.
it's a major performance boost to everything

You need a static strap so you don't break your parts with your own static. Especially if you have carpet.

stop bumping the thread, OP you big fucking faggot

If you are going to actually overclock the thing (which you do since you have a 990fx board) then you'll want a beefier cooler. Vishera runs hot.

Most games these days use at least 4 threads. It's not 2012 anymore.
>>53771068
Guess you're not playing all those other games?
Should have gone with Intel.
There is literally no reason to recommend AMD CPUs unless you're a blind fanboy.
Oh look, another /v/ retard thread.

>Guess you're not playing all those other games?
You mean all those ancient games for which even a Phenom II is enough?
>>53771027
>1280x720
fuck off shill
>>53771247
Yeah sure a Phenom II is enough.
>>53771348
You're right, lets bench at 4k.
Hint: the low resolution is favourable for Intel.
>>53771068
Multithreading performance doesn't work that way. It's still reliant on single thread performance, because you can't make a 100% multithreaded program. You can't even make an 80% one. I highly doubt any games out there have reached 50%.
Single core performance is the most important for gaming. Don't delude yourself.
>>53771448
>Even when there is a obvious GPU bottleneck AMD CPUs are still falling behind
I'm sure you were trying to prove something else. though.
>>53771513
The GTA V ingame benchmark isn't uniform, so a 2fps difference is within margin of error.

Sure.

The load gets split well enough.
no benchmarks with the 5930k only the 5930x wut.

You're a bunch of computer parts on the floor?
Ok. Thanks for all the help?? There may have been 1 or 2 comments that were actually responding

Thank you for doing your part for Israel, friend. Your contribution has been noted.
>buying piledriver and hawaii in 2016
return that shit, wait for pascal, polaris and zen to be released. buy the best price/perf offering of either amd cpu + nvidia gpu or intel cpu + amd gpu. you are shooting yourself in the foot and bought stuff that has a year or two of life left in it.
>>53770384
my i5-2500k ate this fx8350 and farted 30 degrees Celsius on stock cooler, fucker is still hungry...
When I put some good but cheap cooler, he dances like a white flame on graves of his enemies @4.8 - 5.0gHz ...and, im talking about intel's GhZ, not AMDs.... Somehow gHz from Israel are faster...
