    11:17 "...no NVENC encoder" - true but it does have the VCE encoder, which is *almost* as good. But don't make people think this card lacks an encoder. That'd be the 6500 XT (and 6400... and 6300). Everything 6600 and above in AMD's Navi 2 line has VCE.

    Good build. It should be noted that when using the Ryzen 5500 CPU in your build the other hardware with it will be limited to PCIE 3.0 speeds such as the SSD and the graphics card. So finding ways to save money on certain parts to mix and max for the most synergy while freeing up a bit of extra budget for 32 GB of RAM is probably the route I'd go since the RAM in the benchmark portions was getting taxed close to its limit in some games. Both the CPU and the motherboard would limit your SSD to PCIE 3.0 speeds, so you'd have to replace both of them before you'd get your return on investment with the PCIE 4.0 SSD.
    I would probably go for a Ryzen 5600 CPU instead and get a Samsung 970 or 960 500 GB NVME SSD which are PCIE 3.0 SSDs but are still plenty fast and good quality for anyone's general needs, while being less expensive than PCIE 4.0 SSDs. Then to shave off a bit of money an RX 6600 XT would get the job done nicely at 1080p even if it's clock speeds aren't as good as the RX 6650 XT. A better CPU and moving up to 32 GB RAM could help out with the 1% lows area for some games and give you more flexibility for streaming or gaming related videos since that requires more RAM to run multiple programs at one time.
    Getting an SSD heatsink could also be helpful since the Asus B450M motherboard you used doesn't seem to have a heatsink for the SSD, and most NVME SSDs can run a bit hot at times so having a heatsink that costs only around $10 can give it a lot steadier performance and more longevity.

      @thescoffe 3 місяці тому +2

      Just a few minor corrections/additions
      The Ryzen 5000 series are all zen 3, but you are right about the pcie generation.
      Also nvme ssds at gen 3 speeds usually don't run hot enough to need a heatsink, so it wouldn't be necessary in this build.

    • @thescoffe
      @thescoffe 3 місяці тому +2

      Also most people can't tell the difference between Pcie gen 3 and 4 speeds so putting a 5600 into the current board and keeping the pcie gen 3 ssd speeds wouldn't hurt, for example when I had a b450 I ran a 980 pro (cause I got it as a prime day deal) and I can't tell a difference between that and my current build which has a pcie gen 4 ssd.

    I've built and sold many Ryzen 5500 systems, one with an RX6600XT, but most with 3060/Tis. It's a good formula. Radeon PCs are much harder to move than Nvidia in my experience. Your videos are very thorough with good purchasing insights. I like that you mentioned the PCIe 3.0 limitation, and the fact you don't use trash PSUs, referencing the Cultists list. Do you flip PCs?
    Edit: Looked at your previous vids and found you do. Good looks helping people with this info.

Out of like 50 products I’ve gotten from amazon resale, I think maybe one was a dud - and it very well could have just been a coincidence. But I returned it and got a refund the next day so 🤷 just make sure you’re buying from Amazon resale and not some third party and you should be golden 😊
