Hello.
My son is looking to sell his Medion Erazer p6681 (as this m/c has serious limitations when it comes to playing Fortnite and Apex Legends) and buying a desktop set-up. The problem we have is that we see a lot of manufacturer and retailer claims about suitability and performance, but we really have little clue about their validity. We don't want to make the same mistake we made when buying the Medion a couple of years ago.
At a minimum, my son has 3 basic requirements:

  1. play Fortnite and Apex Legends 100+FPS without freezing/stuttering
  2. stream gameplay
  3. good base for future component upgrades as and when required
As a starting point, does anybody have an opinion on the Novatech Core Ember (https://www.novatech.co.uk/pc/range/novatechcoreember.html )? Which of the components are fit/unfit for our purpose? Or do we need to raise our sights?

Thanks for the rapid response Oussebon.
At the moment, my son has about £570, so it depends how much he can raise from the laptop sale (and a few more car washes) - but I guess the budget would be something like £800-£900

I think that, especially with prebuilt on a budget, the risk of "making the same mistake" is fairly big.

I notice that when you're looking at prebuilt systems (not always just the more budget ones) they'll always cut on costs and unbalancing a PC to something I don't like to recommend. Wether it be storage, videocard or power supply.

Also what can be an issue, but doesn't have to be: Some prebuilt PC's, and especially from big manufacturers, may have their parts built specially for them, making it harder to upgrade. As far as I'm aware Alienware has their own motherboards and power supplies and they may have their own connectors too.

I'd like to hear if you (or your son, or both) are open for building a PC yourself too. There's someone on this forums (actually forgot who) who recommends that for bonding :D. It also may open up recommendations as the available choices will increase and we can help advicing on building a balanced PC too.

Specifically for the PC you posted: It doesn't have a videocard. I think Vega graphics are decent, but they're integraded and in no way able to combine playing games and streaming.

Thanks for the thoughts Inspireless Llama - some real food for thought there. Yes, we really want to avoid the pitfalls that you have referred to as much as possible, but we're also aware that, on a budget, we may have to make some compromise.

Our hope is that, with the right guidance, we:
(a) go into this with our eyes open, and are aware which component is less than optimal, and the expected impact of this choice, and​
(b) at least have the ability to easily upgrade that item at a later date when more budget is available.​

I like the idea of this - especially the ability to configure exactly how you want - but I suspect the reality would be less rosy if we have to do the physical build ourselves - the risk of us messing something up is, sadly, very real. What about sites where you can configure the components and they do the build - is this an option?

Specifically for the PC you posted: It doesn't have a videocard. I think Vega graphics are decent, but they're integraded and in no way able to combine playing games and streaming.
Understood - I guess that's why the price was low.
 
What about sites where you can configure the components and they do the build - is this an option?
There are lots of them in the UK. PC Specialist, Cyberpower PC, Scan, Overclockers UK, Dino PC, to name a few. CCL and Novatech might do that service too. They're all reputable stores afaik.

As well as custom builds they often also have special offers on pre-set configurations. Essentially pre-builds, so there can be compromises to hit a price point. But sometimes the compromises are fine.

Ebuyer seem to have a few good deals on their 'Alphasync' range.

£800-900 is a tight budget for an esports + streaming PC + monitor + KB + M.

Possinly something like this for £730
The main compromise here is that the RAM is just 1 x 8gb (3000MHz), but you can just add more RAM / replace the RAM down the line.
Otherwise the R5 3600 is great for gamnig and streaming and the RX 580 should do decently

You'd need to play below max settings on Apex Legends if you wanted 100fps though. You just don't have the budget for 100fps in Apex Legends on high + settings as far as I can see:


Plus a 1080p 144hz monitor for ~£180 or so.

This is very helpful Oussebon. That spec is a handy benchmark now for us to do our shopping (once we have sold laptop). Must say it's a mystery to me how you guys are able to interpret and weigh up all that benchmark data - I might be able to get my head around it if there was only one manufacturer and the development/release of new components was linear - sadly, though, my mind just boggles!

Couple of further questions to help clarify things in my mind - sorry for basic nature of questions:
  1. to what extent does the CPU affect the gameplay? Does it have equal weighting to GPU, for instance?
  2. In GPU benchmarks I note that there appear to be different manufacturers producing same models - e.g. both Asus and MSI seem to make an RX 580 8GB (one is suffixed "Strix" and the other is "GX") - is it safe to say that performance of such apparently same components is similar?
  3. Looking at the benchmark data in the link you supplied (Apex Legends Video Card Benchmark) I assume that you'd need the AMD Vega 56 or above to achieve 100FPS+ - have I interpreted correctly?
  4. What aspects of gameplay would be improved by additional 8GB RAM?
Again, many thanks in advance.

1. That really depends on the game. What I usually read is that there are 2 kind of games: CPU intensive games and GPU intensive games. GTA 5 is considered a CPU heavy game because there's a lot that needs to be calibrated by the CPU.
I'm not sure if I explain this right, but the GPU usually just calculcates the textures (how the game looks like etc, the graphics), while the CPU calculates everything else. When playing a game where the AI moves, the movement is calculated by the CPU, as soon as he gets into the screen, the textures are done by the GPU.
Also, if I understood this right, the higher the resolution of your monitor becomes, the more important your GPU gets (more textures to be done, more detail).

Conclusion: It depends on what game you play how much impact the CPU has. For fortnite I'm not sure.

2. They're all different manufacturers using the same nvidea or AMD chipset, but with their own overclocks and coolers. Compare it to multiple car brands using the same motor in it, but still they're Opel, Ford etc. They look different.
In terms of performance, all chipsets perform fairly equal, so an MSI RX580 or an Asus RX580 will have equal performances. There may be slight differences, depending on the speeds they're using and how good the coolers on the videocards are.
Usually it can work out to just go for the cheapest one though. Unless you care alot about those small clockspeed differences, looks or how quiet it is.

3. You'd need a Vega 56 or above if you want to reach 100+ FPS on high settings. Would you turn down the settings, you'd be able to get 100+FPS on slower videocards too. As seen in the picture below on medium settings, an RX580 would reach arround 150FPS.

This came from an older review (2018) so the newest cards were never included in here.

4. Oh I really don't know that question haha. I know up to some degree what it does, but I'm not really sure what effect it has on gameplay. I think it may (depending on the game) increase your FPS. That only counts for games that like to use alot of RAM though. I'm not sure how much RAM fortnite usually uses, but I think you'd be fine with 8gb. Unless you tend to have 150 tabs open in any browser (like me), that uses up RAM fast :p

1) It depends on the game as above. Usually the graphics card matters more in terms of single components but you want a CPU capable of supporting a future GPU upgrade or two without 'bottlenecking' it (beware of bottlenecking as a term - it's way overused).

In your specific case the CPU may matter a lot, because your son wants to stream. There are alternative ways to do it but typically the CPU will handle the streaming. This is demanding because you are asking it to encode video (lots of maths) as well as feed instructions to the graphics card and everything else it does.

An R5 3600 is a capable gaming + streaming CPU and is many times better than what's in your medion erazer (3 times as many cores/threads).

2) There's very little difference between them all, especially if you just plug in and play.

3) Come back to that one.

4) With the Alphasync PC I linked it's not so much the RAM amount as the fact the PC only has 1 stick, which means the motherboard runs the memory i single channel. Modern PCs can run RAM in dual channel. So having 2 sticks allows more bandwidth for the memory. AMD Ryzen CPUs like the R5 3600 in that PC are particularly sensitive to this and you can see substantial performance gains / more consistent performance with dual channel memory in some gaming situations.

16gb can matter over 8gb in terms of sheer quantity too, and give slightly higher or more consistent framerates, but it varies depending on the game and settings (not all games would see a difference).

So adding more RAM / replacing the RAM with a new 2 x 8gb stick kit would be one of your first upgrades for the system. Upgrading RAM is a very easy DIY upgrade.

===

3) Vega 56? Yes and no.

i) First off, you wouldn't buy a Vega graphics card as it's an older series and newer ones are better bang for buck.

ii) There's also the question of a 'balanced' build. A GPU of that order today (RTX 2060 / RX 5700 sort of thing) would set you back £300+ or so just for the graphics card. What you have left over to spend on the rest of the system may leave it unbalanced, i.e. you need to cheap out on other things such that you hurt the overall performance / limit upgrade options etc.

You can and will upgrade the graphics card down the line (every couple of years potentially) so having a system that's a little bit constrained by the GPU isn't a major issue.

iii) Also, the 'best' graphics card - the one that gives most frames per second - is the RTX 2080 ti. A £1000 graphics card. It is really intended for 4k gaming or 1440p ultrawide/high refresh, rather than 1080p. There might be some valid use cases where you could buy one for 1080p gaming, but not for 99.999%+ of people.

Same sort of thing applies from around the RX 5700 onwards to be honest - you're paying for horsepower that for most gaming scenarios is excessive or just plain bad value for that resolution.

Look at the Apex Legends chart and divide framerate by the GPU cost. An RX 580 gives 80fps average on High settings in Apex and costs ~£150 as an individual component. An RTX 2080 ti gives 160fps average and costs £1000.

iv) Apex is a multiplayer game, so you can't get entirely consistent performance, because every match is different - where you point the camera, how many explosions and other visual effects are on screen, etc. It all varies, because what other players will do each time will be different. So nobody can promise "buy X graphics card, definitely get Y frames per second). The articles I linked are a good indicator, but not a cast-iron promise of performance.

Also, there are 'average' frames per second, but also 'minimum' frames per second - or more accurately the 1% and 0.1% lows in the graphics in the article. i.e. framerate isn't constant, it will vary, and the lows numbers shows you to what level those can drop down to during gameplay.

v) If your son is chasing framerate for competitive play / advantage, he is probably best off lowering the settings
(I don't know if that site is any good as a source, but the general advice of turning settings to 'low' is in keeping with competitive settings for gaming)

Which will give higher/ more consistent framerate than the 'high' or better settings benchmarked in those articles for any given graphics card.

This is what competitive players tend to do in games.

If your son is not overly bothered about competitive settings, and wants higher visual fidelity (high settings) then he'll probably need to accept the limitations of his wallet and settle for more pedestrian framerates.

Thanks again Oussebon and Inspireless Llama.
Really appreciate your patience and the extremely useful guidance. My key conclusions for the time being are:
  • for CPU, then, will look to trust recommended/reputable integrator and consider the R5 3600 as minimum benchamrk.
  • we will make a RAM upgrade (2 x 8gb stick kit) our priority. I have done this before, so well within my limited skillset!
  • with regard to GPU and framerates, there's still a lot of info to take in, digest and juggle, but my key takeaway is the concept of system balance and cost. I think I'll need to sit down with my son and make sure he understands what compromises he needs to make within the time/money-framerate-gamesettings triangle.

Hi, I am sorry to say I can offer no assistance but would like to thank you for your thread. I am also a parent trying to advise my son and it is so hard. My son has recently become interested in VR gaming and a basic Vr ready PC is £1000 so I am so worried advising him where to spend his money. If you do find any good sources of info please let me know. Also I am looking for a trusted Pc builder and if you have found one please advise me. Let me know how you got on.

I recommend watching some YouTube videos that explain the build and the reasoning behind the selection of each of the components. A channel like Paul's Hardware would be an excellent place to start as he generally has monthly PC build videos for varying budgets and purposes.

Glad this thread was of use to you misslyndsay. I've found the experts on this forum to be an excellent source of info so far. I'll update this thread with how we get on when it comes to buying. (Need to get over the first step of selling son's laptop, first).

Hello again.
So, over 3 months since kicking off this thread, my son has finally sold his laptop and has a budget to buy a desktop gaming PC. Unfortunately the AlphaSync Ryzen 5 8GB RAM 1TB HDD 240GB SSD Radeon 580 Gaming Desktop PC, at £730, that Oussebon recommended is out of stock, and has been for a while now. The good news, though, is that in the meantime, my son has done a fair few chores and has a higher budget - and with xmas around the corner, I am considering giving him an additional early boost!

So, we thought the the next step up in the Alphasync range might be this machine at £ 929.99:
AlphaSync Ryzen 5 3600 16GB RAM 1TB HDD 240GB SSD RX 5700 XT Win10 Gaming Desktop PC

I assumed that the higher specs (especially the RX 5700 XT GPU) would give all-round performance improvements, and it appears (according to eBuyer's benchmarks) that it does. However, when I started investigating further, I found this nugget of information on userbenchmark.com:
"Out of the box the reference 5700 XT has high burst speeds but under load it overheats and therefore drops frames to the extent that it is more or less unusable for demanding games like PUBG. In order to settle the card it was under volted by 120 mV and the maximum clock was lowered to 1,980 MHz (the stock BIOS and 19.9.1 driver defaulted the card to 2,030 MHz). The fan curve also had to be turned up to around 50% power at 75 degrees (which is a lot noisier than stock). After making these changes the card delivered far more consistent performance albeit with a reduced top speed and unacceptable (hair dryer) levels of noise. . . . The reference 5700 XT is great for beating benchmarks, but it is not so great for playing games. Thousands of people purchased the reference card expecting flagship performance, instead they got a shopping trolley with a V6 engine."
So, some alarm bells - am I right to assume userbenchmark.com is reputable, and something to take note of in this matter?

This led me to look at some alternatives in the same sort of price range (just), and I found this on SCAN: High End Gaming PC with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and AMD Ryzen 5 3600
So, same CPU, but with a GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER which, according to userbenchmark.com, has generally similar performance levels to the RX 5700 XT, but some key differences, most notably the conclusion that it "alleviates the need for casual streamers to use a dedicated stream PC" which is important as my son wants to play and stream.
  1. Given that SCAN has configured this combo, would I be right to assume that the components are well matched and there are no significant bottlenecks?
  2. Also, recapping on the requirements [Fortnite/Apex gameplay @ 100+FPS while streaming; ability to do this for the next 2-3 years; use video editing software without freezing the computer] does this machine look like the best long-term option for the money?
Many thanks in advance - I would love to hear some of your guru views.

Not so much. Userbenchmark.com is a site that aggregates data to use in algorithmically generated GPU comparisons, but I wouldn't consider them a reputable hardware reviewer. It looks like those florid pros you reference were written by some user profile on the site. Not sure if that's a staff writer or an independent reviewer or what, but I'd take that review with a big pinch of salt.

For starters, that review is referring to the reference RX 5700 XT (the one shipped directly from AMD when the card launched). Reference cards generally don't have good thermal performance as they tend to favor blower cooler designs. AMD's reference cooler for the RX 5700 XT was especially underwhelming. The 5700 XT in the build you linked is an MSI card with a decent cooler, so thermals shouldn't be an issue.

Here are three 5700 XT reviews from reputable sources Tom's Hardware, AnandTech, and Guru3D.

This led me to look at some alternatives in the same sort of price range (just), and I found this on SCAN: High End Gaming PC with NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER and AMD Ryzen 5 3600

Many thanks in advance - I would love to hear some of your guru views.
Either of these builds is a fair pick, I think. I like that the SCAN PC build has a 1TB SSD instead of the less ideal 240GB SSD and 1TB HDD combo.

As for performance between the 5700 XT and the 2060 Super, the 5700 XT is the superior card when it comes to raw power. However, given your son's specific use case, the 2060 Super might be the preferred pick. NVIDIA's NVENC encoding solution is more capable than the AMD alternative. If you're encoding on the CPU, then it's a moot point, but if you're encoding on the GPU then it's worth considering. Also, I don't know what program you use to edit videos, but Adobe Premiere tends to prefer NVIDIA cards in my experience.

Another thing to consider:

These computers are built with what is now the outgoing generation of hardware. The Ryzen 5000 series desktop CPUs are dropping in a couple weeks, and look to offer a sizable performance bump. We also have RTX 3000 series cards from NVIDIA trickling into the market as supply allows, and AMD's Big Navi GPUs are schedule to be announced at the end of the month.

Obviously it's hard to know exactly what will be available in your budget, but if this is going to be a Christmas time purchase, I would highly recommend waiting and seeing what the market looks like in late November. Pre-built machines might be a little late to pick up the new hardware, but if nothing else you might be able to find some good deals on outgoing models.

Scan have a deal on at the moment for this - 3xs-pc-of-the-month
Thanks Boon72. Yes, we've been eyeing up this deal. It certainly looks a good amount of spec for the money. My son's only reluctance is the case - he wonders whether it will have enough airflow (and he's slightly mesmerised by other cases that feature RGB coolers - though I think there may be an option with Scan to choose a different case.

My only questions are against the ASUS PRIME B450M-A Mobo:
  1. How future-proofed is it?
  2. And the specs say that the AM slots support RAM clocked at up to 2.933 MHz and this can be increased to up to 3.2 MHz via OC. I assume you'd want to do this to get the max out of your RAM, but I've never had to OC before - is this a simple thing to do, and are there any downsides?
Also, we're of a mind to follow Zoid's recommendation, and wait to see what the market looks like in late November to find some good deals on outgoing models - I wonder if his deal is the start of the outgoing model offload?

there is an option to build your own on Scan (and the other sites) so maybe a case change can be done, i would imagine given the company that airflow and cooling would be sufficient. it's also discounted by £100 which is a great deal with a 3yr warranty.

you could always wait a little longer, as AMD lauch their grapics cards tomorrow and with the new cpu's and also Nvidia's cards, pre built machines will start to get done with the new specs ready for xmas.

That's a fair deal I think. Decent spec for the price. I'd still advocate for waiting (assuming this is going to be a christmas gift) because I think new hardware availability could make November or December the best time to buy.

To answer your questions:

Future-proofed is a tricky term. Since new computing technology is always being created, there's no way to truly future-proof a build. It will always go out of date. You just don't want it to go out of date too fast. That motherboard has a B450 chipset with current support for Ryzen 3000 series CPUs. AMD has confirmed that the B450 chipset will support Ryzen 5000, though that will depend a little bit on each motherboard manufacturer. PCIe 4.0 is a thing that will be used in the future, which that motherboard does not support, but I think it's unlikely you'll need it during the life of that machine.

I'd say don't get caught up worrying about future-proofing. Over time it inevitably becomes a fool's game. If you make the best choice you can on your initial purchase, you shouldn't have to worry about it.

As for RAM, I'm not sure exactly which specs you're referencing, but that motherboard supports RAM OC profiles up to 4400MHz, and the build comes with 3200MHz RAM. Since it's a prebuilt machine, my guess is that it would come out of the box running at 3200. If you built it yourself it might default to 2666 and you would just have to go into the BIOS and flip a switch to bump it up to 3200. You can go into further fine tuning of RAM timings if you want, but changing the speed is usually just a matter of selecting a number and maybe pushing a button to enable an XMP profile.
