Hi,

I know this has been said time and again. Sorry to bother and ask again if i'm creating a new thread for this since there's a few. I know nuts about troubleshooting etc etc therefore i'm going for AS for their after sales support. Is this build ok for gaming and streaming?


CPU - AMD RYZEN 5 3600 | 4.2 GHZ | 6 Cores 12 Threads
Motherboard - ASUS B450 TUF Gaming Plus
Graphic Card - ZOTAC RTX 2070 SUPER 8GB GDDR6
Ram - 6GB Klevv BOLT X 3200 Mhz (8x2)


Games i'll be playing mostly is world of warcraft and call of duty modern warfare. Your kind input is much appreciated. Apologies once again.

currently using Prism X240 and right now running at 1920 x 1080
You should be able to hit >100fps comfortably for the games you mentioned at highest settings. rtx is good choice as well for the nvenc encoder for streaming.

Yes what you originally listed is good enough to address your immediate requirement.

IF you want to go for the 3700X then it will be a lot faster but personally I would look at going for an X570 motherboard combined with a PCIE 4 NVMe SSD OR waiting for the B550 boards to debut.

thanks for the information. couldn't wait since my laptop breakdown on me today.

If that's the case then stick with the original plan and go for the Ryzen 5 3600 :s22:

The one thing I do not like with Dreamcore is the casing,.. would much rather go with an NZXT case!

can build via some of the folks in carousell, i did mine there. morning deposit, late afternoon can collect already.

most of them stock up the common parts anyway.

If TS wants reliable support and doesn't know anything about troubleshooting, it's better to buy from Aftershock or Dreamcore.

I don't think you got a choice for mb, given it is prebuild, so that's all you can get.

I wish i could too but given the lack of knowledge on troubleshooting. i have to pass unfortunately.

Indeed.

Have some question with dreamcore:

1) Thinking of getting a Tier 5. Is it worth it? How do I compare price?
https://www.dreamcore.com.sg/product/dreamcore-tier-5-dream-build-special-edition/

2) Does Operating System unactivated means OS installed but no CD Key? I have a Microsoft Surface Pro 7 with Window Pro, can I use that CD key?

3) I realise AS and Dreamcore secondary storage only have up to 4TB, can I change it to those 16TB HDD?

Go and visit their website,... they do not just do 1 case they have a whole range and most people that review online recommend them.

IF you don't like the full tower cases then go for a Mid tower or if u want to go even smaller go for a Mini!

The easiest way to compare is to plug in the parts they are providing to one of the SLS pricelists. I did a quick sanity check and their pricing is competitive but at the same time everyone is jacking up prices due to ** so if you can I would hold off.

2) Does Operating System unactivated means OS installed but no CD Key? I have a Microsoft Surface Pro 7 with Window Pro, can I use that CD key?

If you have purchased a Retail copy of Windows 10, then you're allowed to transfer the product key to another computer. ... On the other hand, if you have a computer that came pre-installed with Windows 10 (such as Surface Laptop 2, Dell XPS 13, or Lenovo X1 Carbon), then you're using an OEM license.

3) I realise AS and Dreamcore secondary storage only have up to 4TB, can I change it to those 16TB HDD?

You can either ask them to take out the 4TB and purchase your own bigger drive or tell them to add it.

How much are Dreamcore charging for the license? Are you looking at Windows 10 Home or Professional?
