There’s a Better CPU and GPU Combination 🤔

I think a better combo would be you and Carter doing the thug shaker.

All gamers that live near a Micro Center (including myself) should be eternally grateful for the bundle deals! 🤤

R5 7600 with Rx 7800 xt is all 99% of people need

[Woe_YT]

The 7800xt and 7800x3d is the exact combo I bought to play valorant, overwatch and rust, all CPU heavy games.

I love this vid because its my exact scenario. I ended up snagging the micro center 7800x3d bundle with the black friday price and have been waiting for all the drops until i make up my mind gpu wise. At first was considering the 7600xt (as 16gb vram is a must for me) but with a brand new 1440p 165hz monitor i do want to get the most out of it. So i think the 7800xt is the way to go for me. I was looking at the 6800 but its over a 3 year old card at this point. I cant really justify spending over $500 on a card that will be close to obsolete in 4 to 5 years either.

I think the 3d is still worth getting first because the gpu can be upgraded later and the 3d cpu will be more future proof and help a lot with more than just gaming. Its already insane how much it can improve gaming fps in the way a gpu upgrade normally would

[catalinforcos]

if you buy the best cpu, you can keep it for 5-6 years and just get a new midrange gfx card every generation (2years)

[frederickspeller]

Yep, people fret too much about "bottlenecks" when they should worry about trying to get the most bang for their buck.

[smol_yote]

I remember when 80 class cards were considered enthusiast grade and the 60 class cards were the mid range cards

I’m sort of disappointed there wasn’t a “There is another” Yoda meme included in this short. 😢

Three things
The 4070 ti super may be a little better than the 7900 xt
The first is good for CPU-intense games, the second is better for more GPU heavy ones
Zach you need to do the thug shake

I have 5800x3d with 7800xt.
Great upgrade combo

[schwiftyxsc]

That was exactly my thought when I was researching. I ended up finding the 7900xt and 7700x both on sale. Saved a little money to get that better gpu.

[adlibconstitution]

The cheapest 7900 xt in my country is $1000 😢 and it is very hard to find a used 7900 xt here. 7900 xtx is like $1200. Rtx 4080 is like $1400-$1500

[henkenn]

i have a 7600 and a 7800xt since this is my first pc and they perform really well together :D

[nslayer]

Get the 7800x3d, you wont have to sell or replace your cpu like ever and you can upgrade to any gpu

[Rayz]

I’m in this exact situation and I think it’s a perfect combo, at least in my opinion

[JackKingston-jjft]

Initial combo can help with futureproofing
By eventually selling the GPU and getting a better one to increase CPU usage

[nauioertezeme]

I have 7800xt and r7 7800x3d combo and its been working great for me

It highly depends on what game you play and at which resolution. If you play CPU heavy games or a lower resolution, then the CPU might be the bottleneck and if you play on a higher resolution or a game with a lower CPU usage, then the better GPU is more important. In my case for example a better CPU is more important since i like to play StarCitizen (a very CPU demanding game). Just look at the games you usually play and at your future upgrading wishes since upgrading a CPU might look cheaper at first but can be significantly more expencive since a new Motherboard and maybe even new RAM (depending on your Hardware) might has to be concidered.
