Bit confused by all of that

Are you saying your choice would be the Asus Strix, if so that's out of my budget

So would I just be better finding the Gigabyte somewhere else?

ASRock should do the trick, not sure if UK RMA like Gigabyte though , bios is nice to use

Just want to add the MSI B450I Gaming Plus AC ITX to get your view on that as its about the same as the Azrock

I very much appreciate your help

MSI

Preorder ??

 

[Petrolhead]

Indeed however there are other places to buy. The Gigabyte is also available elsewhere

so given the choice, MSI, Gigabyte or Azrock?

O favour Aorus due to style and UK RMA , but ASRock and MSI and a nicer bios, no way that can be denied , also MSI has done well with their B450s. You'll see that Aorus ITX looks exactly like the z390 version, due to that being g the basis for its design, can see if vastly different to the previous B350 Gaming ITX one .
And the. I have soft spot for Asus, many due to distribution prices being a lot cheaper and you can make a profit on them

Thanks for the help.

I currently have an old X99 Gigabyte board and have always hated the BIOS

I am favoring the Asrock due to have USB 3.1 gen 2 and optical out for sound. Bit mean of them not to include the antennas. Does it cause a problem having the m.2 port on the back of the mobo? ASrock and MSI seem to do this whereas Gigabyte its next to the PCI slot

I am now also considering the Ryzen 7 2700. On paper it may well be better suited to Video Editing compared to the 2600x which is better for gaming.

Also the TDP is 30w lower which may better suit a mini ITX environment

M.2 can gwtbjotnif under heavy load... Should be fine

Yep, gigabytes problem , bios ! Finally get everything sorted with killer z390 and the bios is still a pain haha

ASRock is smooth affair

They don't get that hot , and stock coolers are good !

And you need speed !!! Even if you slapped in 12 thread ripper , a 8700k could still beat it cat stock speed

Now switch to Davinci Resolve and boom ! Hello Ryzen ... Also it's free , but needs muscle with a GPU

 

[Petrolhead]

So you saying the because the 2600x is higher clocked it will out perform the 7 even though it has two extra cores

 

[Petrolhead]

Jesus, in just a couple of days the ram had gone up £20

Now its come down £10

Spoiler: Apologies , abobe has had some updates. Would need to have a good cooler in the ryzen 2700x

[Petrolhead]

Yes but the 2700x is just a bit too far for me so the 2700 is more affordable

Just get the £1700 with a cooler and overclock to 4ghz

 

[Petrolhead]

This is what I have decided to go with, GPU to be decided but a pal of mine is upgrading to a 2080 so a 1060 may be available

My basket at Overclockers UK:

• 1 x AMD Ryzen 7 Eight Core 2700 4.10GHz (Socket AM4) Processor - Retail= £269.99
• 1 x Asrock B450 Gaming-ITX/AC (Socket AM4) DDR4 Mini-ITX Motherboard= £119.99
• 1 x Team Group Vulcan T-Force 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 PC4-24000C16 3000MHz Dual Channel Kit - Grey (TLGD416G30= £119.99

• 1 x Kolink Satellite Plus Aluminium Micro-ATX Case - Black= £44.99

Total: £773.59 (includes shipping: £11.70)

Should do well, don't forget GPU if you haven't got one as ryzen 6+8 cores don't have iGPU on the chip
Might be able to lower PSU wattage as well

 

[Petrolhead]

I had thought of the 450 Corsair but kind of wanted some future proofing

Thanks again for your help

 

[orbitalwalsh]

You could squeeze in Antec 650w unit , but cables would be tight if you have a long GPU .
Should say on case description about length etc

 

[Petrolhead]

I wanted full modular and the sfx has shorter cables

 

[orbitalwalsh]

True , just a shame they also cost more

Antec and focus are modular but longer cables etc
