PREY Gaming PC - Build the BEST Ryzen 7 1700 & GTX 1080 Rig

2017-05-14
so it's finally time to start building pcs with rising CPUs in them in this first PC I have here is the 8 core 16 threaded Rison 7 1700 build we're using a GTX 1080 and the performance is amazing welcome back to tech city this is the yes-man Brian continue guys today with the first of many rising builds now razzin is hit hard when it was released with price-performance and the updates that have been spiraling through have only kept increasing the performance to the point where it's a really good recommendation not just for single-player games but now for multiplayer games too and you'll find out today when I do some of those benchmarks but as with all the PCs that get built around here we'll start off with the build then we'll do the benchmarks for today's popplers we're going with the risin 7 1700 which is an 8 core 16 threaded CPU from AMD it's overclockable and it offers some of the best price performance out there in the CPU market today and then on the graphics card we have the GTX 1080 from Strix which is really cool it's really quiet in an overclocked extremely well and then to overclock all this we need to be six-fifty from Coolermaster gold rated power supply huge amount of amps on the 12 volt line and then we're putting all that in a cooler master 5 T Pro which is a really premium case that features tempered glass and then the cooler CPU we're using the 240 millimeter pro version of cooler masters latest CPU coolers and then on the storage we have a 2 terabyte sshd from Seagate which carries a five-year warranty and is a really good budget option if you want a lot of storage and you still want to keep things sped up as for the motherboard we are using the x3 70 Carbon gaming Pro from MSI which is a very solid price performer in the lineup of x3 70 motherboards and then lastly on the memory we have 16 gigabytes of ddr4 from Gil the Evo X this is RGB memory that also has two profiles of overclocks in there one being 29 33 megahertz and the other being 3200 now this brings the whole total of this build to 16 hundred and eighty-seven US dollars or if you're in Australia brings it to two thousand three hundred and eighty-five Australian dollars then I'm going to do quickly talk about overclock the GPU the GTX 1080 I put in here this managed to go over 2.1 gigahertz stable and it did so with very low temperatures the cpu in this case it only managed to hit three point eight five gigahertz on all cords it sells a little bit disappointed with considering on another configuration with this exact same cpu I managed to get this CPU up to four gigahertz stable so I'm not entirely sure what's going on here with this setup so with that said let's run the benchmark so there it is the PC is complete and it was running every single game I threw it at 1440p with exceptional frame rates even that latest title prey managed to get around about 140 FPS now I asked you guys on Twitter which games you wanted me to benchmark prey was one of those but also people requested Rainbow six siege so I threw that in there and did the in-house benchmark and again a 1440p ultra this PC managed to pull off around 140 frames so if you are at 1440p and you do have a high refresh rate monitor like some of those high-end 144 hertz IPS panels then you can get some really good frame rates out of a setup pretty much identical to this the GT x 1080 that thing is still a beast even of the 1080p eyes out genichi is really an overkill graphics card in a lot of cases and this build just shows that the 1080 even when it's overclocked it just gives you guys exceptional frame rates and coupled with that r7 1700 when you overclock that the frame rates are also very high although the goodness doesn't just stop there with this bill one thing that really blew me away was the performance now in dota 2 so when I went to the AMD conference in Sydney they were telling me that they were working with the game developers to optimize their multiplayer titles two of those being csgo and dota 2 and I must say when I tested both these games the frame rates were exceptionally high dota 2 even at 1440p which I should have been probably testing at lower settings it was still managing to score now in the 200 FPS Markum i know when i tested this a couple of months ago it was getting around lo 100 souls really surprised and really happy to see that the rising CPUs are also getting optimizations for multiplayer games and this is also another reason why I've held back part three of my comparison with the 7700 K versus the r7 1700 versus the jewels Xeon because I wanted to let the updates flow through not just with the hardware but also with the games to let rise and perform at its absolute best before I made a solid recommendation on those CPUs also some things that I wanted to touch on before I get out of here some of those build samples that were sent over for this build the MSI X 370 carbon is a pretty solid motherboard it's not as some of the more expensive options out there but if you're looking to get on the horizon on an ex 370 board then it certainly does look really good and it performs pretty decent if you're on a budget also Coolermaster did send out their 240 millimeter per cooler that did a pretty good job I didn't see temperatures rise over around about 77 degrees that was the max with this overclock at around 1.4 volts and also their cool the master v6 50 power supply did do a pretty good job of providing all these parts of power nothing really shut off or anything didn't really get close to getting near the limit of this power supply as you can see there with the power consumption in a fire strike combined benchmark and also the last part that they sent out was the cooler master 5 T Pro this is a really exceptional case albeit it is very expensive too it's going to be usually double what you would expect to pay for a case however on that note it does have tempered glass it does come with 3 140 millimeter fans and it just honestly has a really good premium feel to everything I didn't have one problem building in this case and the final look is absolutely gorgeous anyway guys if you enjoyed today's video to be sure to hit that like button and let me know in the comments section below what would you do differently if you had a similar budget and also on that note I will be putting an extra list in the description below to some people who want to get similar parts but don't have as much money as today build I'll be putting in some cheaper pipes in there where you can save on things but still get that r7 1700 and also still get that GTS 1080 so I look forward to your comments as always and I'll catch you guys in another tech video very soon peace out for now - bye
