what's up guys Eber here with hurricane axe and welcome back to another video AMD's rising thread Ripper in nineteen fifty X this is their top-of-the-line CPU cost a thousand dollars and I'm pretty sure most of you might be reluctant to spend that kind of money on a processor unless if you're not power-hungry for 16 cores you know I thought to myself now that rising 3 is an excellent option for people who are just looking to casually game at 1080p when you build a system a compact based system for the same amount as the 1950 X $1000 so I did that and here's what it looks like but before we move onto the parts list and the benchmarks and force my experience with the build here's a quick message from our sponsor it's time to try something new with the K 900m mechanical keyboard by Zalman with Cael brown switches on board macro recordings and absolutely gorgeous RGB illumination with the white frame even your dog will go nuts check it out in the description below if you're looking for more information on the new rising 3 CPUs aka new 1300 X and the 1200 we'll leave a link to our performance review video as well as a written article that's on our website in the description down below let's kick things off with the CPU that's going inside this build the rising 3 1300 X it's a quad core quad threaded processor priced at $130 and it offers the best bang for your buck for one it's got a base clock of 3.5 gigahertz and a boost of a particular point 7 and you can easily overclock this thing to 4 gigahertz no problem and we'll talk about that momentarily AMD does include a rate stealth CPU cooler to complement this chip and that's what we'll be using to cool the 1300 X I didn't go for an aftermarket solution simply because I was strictly on a budget of about $1100 and this is including the operating system plus it's actually a great way to test how well the stock cooler could handle overclocking inside a compact case housing the CPU and cooler is the gigabyte a B 350 and gaming Wi-Fi ITX motherboard it's priced at $150 and it's actually one of our first ITX based be 350 boards that we've taken a look at I mean we did give a little glance at it back at topic a lot of you guys were interested to see how well this would fit inside a compact system so here it is now the board is pretty much packed with features like built-in RGB lighting and nvme and two slots at the back that you could seriously take advantage of if you're into fast storage the dual channel memory modules can support up to 32 gigabytes of ddr4 memory there are two USB 3.1 gen2 type it parts at the we are IO for faster storage expansion you also get Intel's 802 dot 11 dual band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.0 which is awesome but there is a huge caveat that you should be aware of here take a closer look at this board for instance notice anything weird about the connector layout now first time builders might not recognize it right away but having built numerous systems for the channel I found the placement of the 24 pin connector the USB 3.1 header SATA ports front panel power and reset pins and even the four pin CPU connector have been odd now traditional ATX or even micro ATX motherboards have these connectors shifted 90 degrees meaning the CPU 4 pin would be placed at the top the 24 pin along with the USB 2 upon 1 header and SATA ports are located right beside the memory modules and the rest at the bottom in fact many cases have been designed to properly route cables to these connectors for a more simple and cleaner look this gigabyte board will definitely give you a tough time with cable management so be well prepared for memory I chose g.skill ripjaws 16 gigabyte ddr4 kit clocked at 2400 megahertz now memory prices have increased quite a lot since the last time I built a mini ITX PC we're talking a $30.00 increase for the exact same ranking so now we're looking at around $130 that's a huge jump in price guys needless to say there should be a pretty good option for gaming as we've conducted multiple tests comparing 16 verses 32 versus 64 so if you're interested in that comparison I'll leave a link to that video in the description down below as for the case so still hooked us up with their new RV zo 3 slim form factor chassis if you recall there the wave in series of cases this is their third iteration to that lineup and they've included a cool feature this time built in RGB lighting friends it's a great implementation in my opinion because you can color match it to the rest of your setup and as a bonus the gigabyte board comes with a four pin RGB header so lighting controls can be done through a gigabytes fusion software although be prepared to justify its $110 price tag from a physical standpoint nothing much has changed from the previous our VCO 2 case that Dmitry reviewed a while back other than the front panel design shift the interior is sporting the same layout but silverstone decided to eliminate support for a three and a half inch hard drive and I found that to be really odd which brings me to my next point storage I chose the OC GTL 100 240 gigabyte SSD as my primary boot drive and for my most used applications to expand the game library I had to take the hit for slower rpms because a I was on a strict budget and be 2 and a half inch hard drives was the only option to go with since this case lacks support for 18 a half inch hard drive so I decided to go with Seagate's one terabyte 5400 rpm 2 and a half inch hard drive now expect longer game load times when you go for a hard drive that expect at 5400 rpm but there are a few ones in the solutions that you could opt for one is that you can eliminate the dual drive setup and go for an all-in-one solution so like a high capacity SSD that can host your operating system and your game library but again take into account and higher capacity SSDs are still ridiculously expensive so you can definitely go over the 1100 of a budget the other option is to go for Silverstone's our vzo 2 case because that case comes with support for a community I think I'll Drive but the downside to that case is that it does not come with RGB lighting so if that's not a deal-breaker to you then by all means now also the best part of the build the GPU and this was a tough choice I picked the EVGA GTX 1060 super clock video card simply because it was the least expensive bang for your buck solution but it also happened to be readily available which can't be said for many graphics cards these days now I'm completely aware of the mining situation where gamers have to pay a lot more for GPUs than what they would normally do due to demand and in some cases it seemed hard to find GPUs in stock in online stores or even local stores it's a huge crisis point for gamers I'm not sure how to address this issue or I'm not sure how companies are going to address this problem but I'd like to hear your thoughts about this where is mining going to go and how is that gonna affect gamers looking forward to the responses powering the whole system is the silverstone SD 45s f small form-factor psu with an 80 plus bronze certification and it retailed for about $60 there should be plenty enough to power the 1300 x and the gtx 1060 plus it's also super quiet during idle and load operations so here's the final build I think it turned out pretty well I mean from a physical standpoint the only thing that shines through this PC is that RGB lighting at the front it's very subtle and I love the way how it looks like I mentioned before lighting can be controlled through the gigabytes fusion app and there are different effects that users can pick you can go all out if you so desire however I'm not that happy with the cable management inside the chassis it's just a mess guys and I tried my best to make it look nicer but the layout on the motherboard was just too hard to overcome it's one of the downsides if you're planning to go mini ITX so be aware of the compromises solar Stone has included magnetic dust filters and a couple of 120 millimeter slim fans for good airflow so that's welcoming to see on $110.00 chassis so here's a closer look at the parts list for the build along with the operating system the total price rounds up to about $1,100 without any sales taken into account but there are a few things that I need to mention the inclusion of the operating system is important since Windows 10 home eats up $120 of our budget that could have been spent on other things if you already have a Windows license then I'd suggest putting that money towards an aftermarket cooler and maybe a GPU upgrade or even step things up to horizon 5 1600 CPU another thing to point out is that I'm actually using average retail prices for every components rather than some vague suggestion BTL price with that being said it is crazy to see how component prices have shot up in the last few months just take the SSD the memory and the GPU into account this bill cost me $200 and more than what it would have been back in May so let's switch gears and talk about overclocking because I had a very interesting experience with a 1300 X 2 star cooler and gigabyte b250 motherboard so I started with four gigahertz unfortunately I wasn't able to do or I was able to get a full successful boot with that setting and then I tone it down to three point nine I ran to the bench multi-core and the three mark firestrike test got is significantly higher score than the stock settings so that was awesome but I ran the premier Pro 4k render test and the system just crashed about halfway through rendering that video then I turned on the settings 23.8 and I ran the Cinebench multi-core test along with the fire stripe test I got a slightly lower score than what I got with the Q point 90 yards overclock but surprisingly I ran the premiere pro render test and it passed no problem the last thing I did to ensure stability at 3.8 gigahertz was to run the item 64 stress test and disappointingly or I guess the sad news was that the system crashed about 30 minutes into the test and I we voted the system open to beta and noticed that the CP temperatures got at 95 see it almost reached 95 C so I guess the CPU cooler was the bottom like with this overclock so ultimately I left the settings that stock and I just ran the benchmarks so here are the results Cinebench r15 in the multi-core test dished out around 544 points whereas OpenGL scored roughly 81 frames per second our standard one-minute 4k video using Premiere Pro CC 2017 took three minutes and ten seconds to complete and as you can see that's how well it did compared to my previous bills and my workstation PC this isn't geared towards content creators although you're more than welcome to upgrade 2005 or even lives in seven down the road provided you figured out the cooling situation CPU temperatures were respectable out of the box the 1300 X ran about 36 see during idle and under load it was reaching about 66 degrees not bad for a stock cooler actually now on to gaming battlefield 1 at 1080p set to high averaged around 83 frames per second overwatch at NDP Center Ultra averaged well over 150 frames per second Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon which is a slightly more demanding title taxed out on the GTX 1060 at 1080p set to high settings I was averaging just a tad above 60 frames per second finally do my 1080p set to ultra did really well averaging around a hundred games per second so overall you're looking at a really capable gaming PC for 1080p gaming and in some cases you could push it to 1440p but be mindful of the settings the gtx 960 super clock was idling around 48 c and during gaming it reached a max of 74 degrees celsius it's not too bad for GP of the size and surprisingly the core speed went all the way up to 1962 megahertz and this was during the Ghost Recon benchmark say goodbye to tables it's time to enjoy wireless audio with the Corsair avoid RGB gaming headset with the light and comfortable frame low profile mic on headset volume control and my kneeled + dual side illumination check out the void RGB by Corsair the perfect way to hear your game well there you have it guys a mini ITX rising PC for $1,100 I know a lot of you guys might not agree with my component selections here but again I'd like to hear your thoughts on alternatives for example the CPU of the stock cooler didn't really make any sense for the budget but one of the downsides to going mini ITX is that the cost obviously increases for example the case we get expensive many ATX motherboards are also expensive so again that's one of the factors that you'll have to take into consideration but nonetheless I'd like to hear your thoughts on the performance that I was able to get out of this PC also stay tuned for more bills featuring X $2.99 perhaps X $2.99 I really don't know but the rest of 2017 looks really promising so I'm just gonna leave it there
