Only best part about this news.............GTX 1080 Tis price will drop dramatically this holiday, you can prolly switch out your 980 Ti for it at a cheaper price than before.

My son got some money for his birthday and wants to get a starter gaming PC.

Is this worth $300?

very solid. is that a barebones/kit?

SSD and Ram should be fairly and easily upgrade-able. but a solid starting platform.

 

[kdawg]

Just cause 3, Minecraft, Fortnite, overwatch and stuff like that

Is the message he just sent me. Doesn’t sound anything too crazy.

 

[3am scholar]

You’re fine.

 

[datkidfiasco]

Building my bro in law a pc for his work office. Only office work and YouTube. Would 16gb ddr4 be OD or should I put in 8? I'll post pics when done.

 

[3am scholar]

Go with 8gb.

 

[slighted]

8GB is more than enough.
And RAM prices are kinda ridiculous now.

 

[Mark Antony]

8gb should be fine unless he's really doing heavy excel work, that case i'd do 16. Even then you can get by fine with 8.

 

[jewelknows]

Yea crazy what RAM is costing right now.

Does anyone in here have a Ryzen build? I have a pretty old i7 build, and was thinking about upgrading. But RAM prices is part of the reason I am holding back since my current RAM may not be compatible lol .

Same boat.

I do have a buddy that works at Corsair tho.

I'm gonna do a Ryzen build next. Probably with a 1600 or 2600.
