These PC2 questions are great for me, I'm a newbie xD
Hello, thank you for sharing your setup details. I’m working to perfect this configuration. Here’s what I understand: CPU is a Ryzen 7 3700X, stock Wraith Prism cooler, GPU is an RTX 2060 Super from SuperGAIN Technologies, motherboard Gigabyte X570 Aorus Elite, RAM Team Group T-FORCE Delta with 2x8 DDR4 (16GB, 3200MHz), SSSD XPG Gammix S11 Pro 256GB PCIe Gen 3x4, case is XP-GRINNER Mid Tower, PSU is a Cooler Master MasterWatt 750W semi-fanless with Bronze certification.
Your questions:
1. Does it handle 50% gaming and 50% multitasking well?
2. Is the Wraith Prism cooler suitable for regular to medium workloads, streaming, or keeping the CPU cool under load?
3. The PSU seems solid, but are there any recommendations for upgrades or tweaks within your budget?
Any advice on optimizing performance or extending lifespan would be appreciated.
1. Yes, using all those cores and threads with an NVMe SSD as your boot drive works well.
2. Based on what I understand, the Wraith Prism Cooler functions adequately, though the fans tend to get noisier over time.
3. It’s a high-wattage unit from a trusted manufacturer. I’d prefer a lower wattage PSU and an 80+ rating (such as Gold) for better efficiency.
Side note: If you decide on a cooler later, consider a mid-range Noctua or Bequiet! Pure Rock Slim series for better mounting and durability.
