Even better, get a 400W EVGA for that.

Because I'm bored and do this for a living I'm going to put together an alt build for you:

Nice entry level Skylake gaming Mobo (I've used this, it's nice, has USB 3.1 which will be very helpful in the coming years for data transfers)

Processor: G440

https://www.amazon.com/Intel-BX80662G4400-Pentium-Processor-FCLGA1151/dp/B015VPX05A

RAM (only 8GB but get 16 if you can afford another $40 or so)

total cost of build is roughly:


Mobo ($70)

CPU ($60)

GPU ($170)

RAM ($70)

SSD ($60)

PSU ($30)

Case ($40)

So total is roughly $500 and with this build you have a great upgrade path, which you won't have at all with the one you proposed.

What about the motherboard? Is it compatible with the gpu l. I tried looking on pc partpicker but it wont show up so i cant tell

Will it be compatible with this power supply aswell?

https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00LV8TZAG?ref=olp_product_details

Always assume you will need to add a custom BIOS with the 771 Xeon's microcode, as the CPUs aren't supported. The power supply is very old, not even 80+ certified and probably won't have the connections you need, a cheap solution would be this.

Man. You're so tough. You're looking for premium hardware, not going with the used parts. But accepting the PS4 which is a console. And the other one is a whole PC that you can do a lot with, rather than a gaming, wha da heck!!

Are we good? Haha!

It would've been much cheaper if you consider the "used" parts and going with the ex-generation parts (Mobo+Cpu). Heck, X1 and PS4's parts are kinda old, ya know.

I swapped in a less expensive motherboard and PSU - nobody remembers the mail-in-rebates anyway.

I've never used adapters like this, but I think this is what you'd be looking for https://www.amazon.com/Molex-PCI-Express-Video-Adapter-Converter/dp/B00DFZ7HDK/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1525207978&sr=8-10&keywords=molex+to+6+pin. Just be careful, you never know how these OEM PSU's act with aftermarket parts. I know you said it's out of the budget but whenever you can upgrade your power supply, i'd recommend it. There's cheaper name brand options out there. https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Warranty-Power-Supply-100-N1-0400-L1/dp/B00LV8TZAG/ref=sr_1_18?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1525208126&sr=1-18&keywords=500+watt+power+supply

> Super cheap case that comes with some nasty generic PSU

Just dont.

>Standard budget case + I source a budget PSU
>Standard budget case + I source a semi-reputable PSU

You know, not all PSU are expensive. 30$ can get you a decent PSU that wont blow up in the first 2 years.

You could get the EVGA 450B and still be good for power usage.

Or even this one.

I have one of these. Green is your on off wire, it's off by default, the supply turns on when you pull it down to ground. Purple is 5 volts stand by, which means it's there as long as the supply is plugged in. Yellow is your 12v supply, which is what I'm assuming you're after. The wire isn't very thick gauge, so I'd suggest tying the like colored ones together.


And if you're interested, red is 5v, orange is 3.3v

You could probably bump that CPU to an i3-8100 or Ryzen 2200G without blowing the budget.

If you go the Ryzen route, the built-in GPU can do some light-gaming. The 2400G seemed to hit 75 FPS in Fortnite at Medium Quality 720P (see this Hardware Unboxed video at around the 5:00 minute mark. But the GTX 1050 is probably going to score above a 750 Ti in whatever benchmarks you see. And the Ryzen would probably need faster RAM since it's GPU performance is linked to system RAM.

The DDR-2400 was cheaper and faster than the RAM you had listed. You could drop the gaming mouse and keyboard and just go with a Logitech combo for half the price.

I should also note this takes advantage a PSU rebate. It's your same PSU, but cheaper. There are frequent discounts/rebates on PSUs in general, so it should be possible to find one in the $20 range. (EVGA has a rather cheap 400 Watt one that hit $20 several times. I'd still go with the one you listed since it seems higher quality.)

Would a PSU like this fit?

I found an even cheaper psu lol, how much can I skimp out on this? I know you suggested 80+ bronze but does it really matter that much? Jayz n linus only mention them and I don't think it matters much but ofc I've never built a pc

I did a little bit of research and found this PSU. It is not modular at all, meaning those wires will always be attached to the PSU. It is cheap, has good reviews, and is from a reputable brand however the cables will make it look messy.



There is also this PSU. It is semi modular, so every cord can be removed from the PSU except the 24 pin ATX cord. It is more costly, but again is from a reputable brand and has a ton of positive reviews. This one is more expensive but allows your set up to look cleaner.

PSU should be fine. around the max you could do for it. use sites like :
http://www.coolermaster.com/power-supply-calculator/

or

http://outervision.com/power-supply-calculator

both should give you around 250W of needed and recommmend 300W PSU, but if you want to get new PSU I would recommend to get 400W to 450W and not 600W that is way too big for your system.

also check that you have all cable installed to your GPU. I do not know if it needs 6-pin additional power cable. If it does and your PSU do not have it then you need new PSU. also if you go for getting new PSU. get something like this: https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Warranty-Power-Supply-100-N1-0400-L1/dp/B00LV8TZAG/ref=sr_1_2?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1482836063&sr=1-2&refinements=p_n_feature_keywords_two_browse-bin%3A6906983011

corsair is decent brand as is EVGA, do not get any no brand PSU. Also check carefully that you new PSU has all the connections your computer need it is HP prebuilt one and they might have some kind of propietary connectors there.

your problem is not likely to be with the PSU, but graphics drivers. here is some kind of guide.

1. Connect your GPU to your motherboards slot and you should see the the picture.
   
2. download display driver uninstaller from here : http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html
   
3. download latest catalyst/crimson/whatever amd GPU drivers are called today
   
4. run DDU and follow its instructions. You should go to safe mode to remove all drivers.
   
5. then connect back to your new GPU and install latest drivers.
   
   
   that worked for me on spring when I moved from GTX 660 to GTX 970.

$27 EVGA 400W

$45 EVGA 500B or

$49 EVGA NEX750 B1

or something else under $49?

I'm looking at Amazon specifically, but if an amazing deal is somewhere else, I'll consider it.

PCPartpicker estimates 343W with the 380, but I could use a 960 instead for the 400W PSU.

Thanks for the advice! I'm going to be buying this 400W supply cause I'm cheap.

On a side note, why is power usage not really looked at or even shown in the specs of many websites? It seems like an incredibly major thing, but websites like Amazon and even the AMD website don't include it in the "specs" of the cards.

I never even considered the fact that my PSU could be limiting my current GPU, but for some reason the power usage isn't even shown on the specs on the AMD website so I have no way to check if just getting a new PSU will drastically improve my system.

I found this list myself just with some knowledge of what's cheap and brand new right now.

Definitely don't need that big (and expensive) of a power supply. Looks like you're wanting to buy everything from Amazon. Here's a 400W that'll save you $50: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00LV8TZAG/?tag=pcpapi-20

This power supply should fit your needs, but the card above does not need that much additional power (I think like only 75W directly from the mb), just preparing your pc for more future updates

Alright. Here's the build. It will be around 470 after tax. Its pretty decent, especially for the 500 dollar range. It will play whatever you throw at it without much of an issue. Its quite upgradeable. Its on the AM4 platform so in years to come when you need an upgrade you could find a faster used AMD AM4 CPU without an issue. Could buy one of the latest GPU's during the time as this PSU has 6 and 8 pin power connectors.

IDK how you want to build it. I could find some video explaining it. We could video call or whatever they call it when you're ready to build. Or any other ideas.

that's why I said that that 13 buck charger is probably a fire hazard, because I don't think it would actually stand having all those ports maxed, which would be the 40 watts it's rated for

but it's bullshit to say that a 40W PSU is worth 60 bucks, more like 400W PSUs

Depends on what you buy/want. The 1050 Ti recommends a 300w PSU, but you could spend a bit more for something like this or a 550w or 650w if you ever plan on upgrading your video card again for something that's more powerful but needs to draw more power

If you want to have a discrete GPU and intel CPU then you will have to go used. I live in the US, and I can not verify that these sellers ship to you.
