If i could build one dream system with AMD what should I do?

 

Hey AMDREDTEAM Fam,

I am planning on building a DREAM AMD BUILD and I'm curious what I should get and if you have a build and have been running AMD what do you think is best overall?

Please put your DREAM BUILD and I'll take a look at everyone's ideas, builds and decide what to do and who knows maybe I'll build it LIVE with all of you in the near future! 

No ideas or build to Big or Small I'm just want everyone's thoughts on what I should do?!

Gaming or productivity orientated? ..or both? Server orientated or maybe you want to host some VM's?

"Dream Build" can be very subjective .. my dreams might severely differ from what you dream .. etc

So I'm a content creator so it would be for gaming and editing but also I am a designer and video editor as well so the everything from davinci, unreal 5, and max performance and quality gaming!

We're actually in the same boat, so I'm looking forward to the replies you get! I'm focusing on gaming myself, with a bit of productivity mixed in. 

I know I'm looking at an AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX and an AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D to start. With the GPU, you can also check out AIB partners like ASUS, MSI, Sapphire, etc. 

all depends from productivity meaning

vms/virtualization aka cpu load? max cpu -1 for instance 5900x for yourself, and 5950x if build is your income

same goes for other parts

  • CPU - 7950X3D
  • GPU - Sapphire Nitro+ 7900XTX
  • Motherboard - MSI X670E Carbon
  • RAM - Your choice just 6000mhz CL30 timings
  • Storage 1TB OS Drive / 4TB game drive (Western Digital SN850x)
  • PSU - 1000w 80+ Gold or Platinum with a 10yr warranty
  • Case - NZXT H5 Flow or Be Quiet 802

Now let's go win a championship, lmao

Leonidas - Ryzen 7 5800X3D | MBA RX 6800 XT Midnight Black | Be Quiet 802 Silent Base (Main)
Maximus - Ryzen 7 3700x | Power Color Fighter RX 6700 XT | Fractal Ridge ITX Case (HTPC)

Go big or go home!  I would use a 2-TB M.2 system drive and a few more for game drives.  I would also throw in a few SSD drives for automated backups (yes, in the same case).  I have yet to see one of my SSD drives fail and thus their reliability is to be commended.  I have seen HDDs fail over the years but nothing to be concerned about given the number of years they have operated.  For RAM, I would install 64 GB.  For the CPU cooler, a nice big 3 fan radiator AIO with RGB lighting and a cool pump would be sufficient.

As Albert Einstein said, "I could have done so much more with a Big Al's Computer!".

I'm a bit with @ThreeDee Dreams are subjective and you, as a content creator, have an audience to "please", sure we can help you with some inputs, and I will. But you should stick with SEO and build the most trendy to your audience to get watch time. Only my humble opinion.

You also got a good subscribe base, maybe you can put up a poll in the community tab of your channel, check their ages and location, this can help. 

I'm also looking to make a vídeo like that with my dream build. 

Its gonna be a Threadripper plus a 6950XT for content creation, storage and a bit of gaming on the side. 128Gb and lots of M.2 to take advantage of all those pci e lanes.

If its searchable? Well... maybe not but I'm its my dream build.

I recently updated my PC to a Ryzen 9 7950X3D and a RTX 4090 in a Silverstone GD09 case in my media rack.  The cooling system is a MO-RA3 with 200mm fans and the dual pump module mounted directly on the radiator.  Pretty fun build to do with all the cool elements external.

Building PC today without a goal is pointless tough. Even for IT work it balances from point to point. For sims u go into SSD/CPU, AI - GPU, VM - CPU with cores or TP mode and so go on.

With gaming most of the cases you go 3d.

That said you've got also external hardware like cases, fans, water cooling / customs etc.

 

Without that info you'll spend the same amount of cash as on used car (to be absolute beast of beast). Unless cash is not the problem.

Keep in mind that technology evolves, so it's a good idea to check for the latest components and reviews when building your system. Also, ensure compatibility between the components you choose. A high-end desktop processor with 16 cores and 32 threads, offering exceptional performance for gaming and content creation.
