replacing old computer with this set-up.

[jednified]

---

nag plan ko mu palit ug desktop. My budget is around 15-20k. Mao ni gi recommend sa akong friend. Use sa desktop kay mu skwela ko ug networking or sys admin courses. Also, hilig sad ko mu duwa ug mga games like call of Duty and etc. Sa inyong tan.aw mga boss, okay na kaau ni na set.up?

Processor: AMD FX-4300 3.8MHz


Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7770 OC Edition

Memory: G. Skill Ripjaws 8GB (2x4GB) 1600MHz


Power Supply: Hec Cougar ST 500w 80+ Certified

payiir, na TS, cooler nlng

you may want to consider this too...

processor: core i3-3220
motherboard: Asus P8B75-M LE

kapuyan kog himo specs, but i suggest looking into i3-3220 ang B75 mobo. also sa videocard mas suggest 650 Ti, its more or less same price with 7770 but can be about 15-20% faster than 7770 with much lower idle power consumption in case u wont be gaming.

also try making specs basing on this thread.

OT gamay: in reality, dako ba gyud ug impact ang Lucid Virtu sa power savings? i've read this in ASUS website: "When the discrete graphics card is not required, power consumption goes automatically down to near zero, making the system more environmentally-friendly."

Pwde mu ask sir why much better and i3 compared sa specs na akong gi state? 3.2 rmn gud ang i3 whereas and AMD kay 3.8...

^ allow me to answer this one bro...

the performance of the GPU in processing apps & games does not rely heavily on the raw speed but would rely more on the technology (micro-architecture) used by the GPU... as of these writing, the current Intel's offerings (SB & IB micro-architectures) do a better job on any productivity apps including gaming if compared to AMD's offering on the same class of CPUs...

but, there is an exemption though, once an application requires multi-threaded processing, then AMD's offering (usually have more physical cores) would kick in...

AMD FX-4100 Intel Core i3-2100
Codename:Zambezi Sandy Bridge
Process: 32 nm --- 22 nm
Cores (Threads): 4 (4) --- 2 (4)
Clock Speed (Turbo): 3.6 (3. GHz --- 3.3 GHz
Interface: Socket AM3+ LGA 1155
L3 Cache: 8 MB --- 3 MB
Thermal Envelope:95 W --- 55 W

NOT the SAME Comparison, but close enough
AMD FX 4100 VS Intel i3 3220 (gaming)

in the benchmark is the newer 4170, so ur ur Fx4100 is an obsolete procie

performance :intel has it
gaming : intel has it


and Let's not DONATE TOO MUCH to VECO.. see power envelope ( TDP )

use intel.

6-core AMD vs 2-core INTEL

For your reference. Ayaw lang post didto sa thread so as not to fuel the fire..

OT gamay: in reality, dako ba gyud ug impact ang Lucid Virtu sa power savings?

para nako way epek... sa load siguro naa, pero sa idle (which is mao unta importante) walay epek...

nag experiment gyud ko ani sa akong setup (3570K with GTX660Ti)...

idle power consumption (around 80watts i think) nako is the same with or without Virtu... kung way discrete GPU, mga around 60watts man siguro toh... og sa tanaw nako sakto ra kay nakatanggag raman gihapon ang 2 ka PCIe power connectors so tungod ana naa gihapon siya idle power draw nga mo add up sa tibuok system.
