*NOTE: The Toughpower GF A3 PSU is B Tier Rated, not A Tier. The similarly named Toughpower GF3 is A Tier rated. I've changed the link in the description to the A Tier rated one.*

I had a nightmare with the bequiet 12m. Fourth PC build, everything worked but the fans. Including CPU and GPU fans. MSI and ASUS support for motherboard said it was a bad motherboard so I tried 3 different motherboards, a different case, same results. So for a last attempt I switched the PSU to the Corsair RM750e and it worked. None of the companies suggested it was the PSU. My confidence in PC building has been restored, but damn. That was a nightmare to deal with. Had no idea a PSU could be the problem of ALL fans not working

Pair it with the Ryzen 4070, it’s the perfect pair!

[jimashby]

I actually wait and look forward to these. A really fun show. 😊

I just bought that kit from a guy locally that said he bought the wrong ram. Got it new for $50. Yes it’s similar in performance to the Trident 6000MT / CL30 but timings are better on Gskill so get the low profile flare x 6000mt cl30 instead for $105. If you want to pull the maximum out of the box performance from your cpu/gpu.

All of these kits are 6000MT/s CL30-38-38-96 1.35V

Gskill FlareX Low Profile for $104.99
F5-6000J3038F16GX2-FX5

Gskill Trident RGB for $112.99
F5-6000J3038F16GX2-TZ5NR

Gskill Trident Non RGB for $116.99 F5-6000J3038F16GX2-TZ5N

Love it. This will be my next build, premium one you showcased, but with a 4070ti Super. Thanks as always, Jason! Amazing videos!

[radupopescu]

I like ur videos Jason. Keep it up with the good work !

[tofu]

Great video to get people started on a build.

One slight mistake: The thermaltake gf a3 isn't an A tier psu. Their naming is a bit confusing but the "gf3" and "gfa3" are different where the "a3" variant doesn't have all Japanese capacitors.

I dont know what yall be smoking thinking this new CPU isn't a flop. It has literally nothing going for it let alone it is sometimes slower than previous gen in some titles AND on some productivity tasks.

[ronzerker]

I've been so behind on tech news and what's going on. What brought me back was the news around Intel, who I thought were doing great ever since their gpu releases. Seeing the 9000 series is crazy because I just bought a 7600x thinking 9k series was coming like next year or something. Thanks for the build video. I'll try upgrading in a year from now to get that solid 4k gaming experience.

[cmdr_stretchedguy]

I'm planning to wait for the first 9600X sale to swap from my current 5600X to the 9600X to put on my B650 board.

[chrislincoln]

I get what you are saying, but at a 10% performance uplift over the 7600x at a 40% mark up over current prices I really don't see the use case.

[SpudLord_PhD]

Thanks for the video Jason. Seeing all the temps for the 9600x and the 9700x makes me happy. I know the 7800x3d is still a monster for gaming but I really like those temps under load for the new 9000 series CPUs right now. So when i plan on upgrading my PC this fall I have a tough one to choose. I know you would recommend the 7800x3d but a little less performance and lower temps on the 9700x is calling to me. I like a quiet system 😂.

[jlclark]

From what I have seen from reviews we need to wait for proper bios updates to fix many issues with this CPU. The only thing it has going for it is power efficiency. The new 9000 series is not any better than the 7000 series.

Best CPU for Ryzen 9600x build.... 7600X

When the world needed him the most, he was there.

[williammunny]

I still gotta hold on my build but, interesting to see what’s coming out for my 25’ build!

[TKTKTKTKTKTKTKTKTKTKTKTKTK]

Awesome Video! It summarizes the findings from my three days of deep-diving research into the new options, which is much appreciated and reassuring!

RAM Question: Is there a downside to taking a 6400/30 1.35V RAM over a 6000/30 1.35V RAM kit when using the Ryzen 5 9600X CPU? I've seen several people stating that anything above 6000 can cause booting issues but not sure exactly how accurate that information is.

Your help is amazingly appreciated :)

[B.hydro.H]

9600x can keep up with 7600x at lower tdp and through bios can easily bring up the tdp increasing it’s performance

[NulJern]

God damnit! He did it again.. Another great video and as always informative, great explanation and solid advice! Just doing my to help the algo :D
