New computer build.

System Builder - Core i7-8700K 3.7GHz 6-Core, GeForce GTX 1080 Ti 11GB AMP Extreme, Core X2 MicroATX Mini Tower - PCPartPicker

Here's what I've got so far, trying to keep the case as small as possible, and going to try to get 5.0Ghz out of the processor.

Any thoughts?

 

dannggg son your over kiling it lol also why you no use ryzen

 

Intel is still better single threaded processing, I'm going to try for a 5Ghz overclock with this. I've no use for more cores at the moment.

 

ahh makes sense then but yeah solid build bit op thu lol

 

It's not OP until I can run endgame SkyFactory 2 at 60fps. Heh

 

Nice congrats! I have a pretty similar build ^^

I love the GTX 1080 Ti series! I have the 1080 Ti lightning and it has been absolutely amazing!

 

If you are gonna stone it with a 2k build go for some Seagate Barracuda 10TB HDDs and go for a slightly cheaper Kingston - ValueRAM 48GB (3 x 16GB) Registered DDR3-1600 Memory (KVR16R11D4K3/48I) - PCPartPicker . You can trust Kingston to have some of the best memory cards there are. However they are 240 pin not 288

You know the GTX 1050 Ti can run all games at max graphics at 60 fps, its cheaper as well

 

looks like a great build

 

oh damn son, look at that price

 

Yeah, going all out on this one. Built another for about the same 8 years ago and it's finally on it's way out.

 

I have an external block of 4 GTX 1080 Ti's waiting for 4 way crossfire to be acceptable

 

._. 2700 euro of GTX 1080 Ti-s there

 

That's going to fun. Although you might have better luck waiting on Nvidia Volta. I think I'm done with SLI and Crossfire for now. Going to stick to one GPU for the foreseeable future.

 

I can make a really dodgy interpreter card with some basic soldering and hmdi ports to use instead of crossfire so

 

The 1050 ti statement is not always true, especially for Minecraft. MC requires heavily on all processes rather than just GPU/CPU base. It uses Ram/GPU/CPU/Disk, so no matter the video card, even if its good and your processor is bad, you probably won't be able to run end game heavily loaded base on MC with smooth frames on max.

Note to the ram, DDR3 will not work with his system due to the fact that it's 240 pin like you said, but DDR3 is barely supported by new hardware and what not. Most motherboards of the current day and age take DDR4, unless you have a pre am4/Skylake system.

Thanks. I was being too lazy to actually type this out but was feeling bad about not replying to him.

 

Heh I'm as rusty as my old PC case when it comes to components now anyway

 

A little rust just adds some character anyway!

 

Cant argue with that

 

This is the build I am currently working on, have the case ordered just waiting on money for the rest. System Builder - Core i5-7600K 3.8GHz Quad-Core, GeForce GTX 1070 8GB, Air 540 Silver ATX Mid Tower - PCPartPicker
