É overpriced, não tenha duvidas. Não só pelo fato de não ter nenhuma modularidade, ou seja, se precisar de mais que 256GB e 256GB não é porra nenhuma, ainda mais pra quem quer pra arte, fosse pra codigo até iria... um dump de 200 fotos em raw é 60GB. Se estragar é lixo. Mac tem um monte de coisa cri

For AI go for intel instead & i have added 2 ram stick you can go with 16gb only and add more later on For AI 32gb is the minimum recommended PickPCParts Part List Type Item Price CPU Intel Core Ultra 5 245K 4.2 GHz 14-core Processor ₹20,999.00 @ Avika Retails Motherboard MSI B860M GAMING WIFI Micro

Yes and no. You need a specific algorithm to take advantage of that. If you use OpenFOAM or COMSOL which does not limit the total number of core you can use, 265k should be better. For ANSYS, if you don't have HPC, you stuck at 4 cores. In this case, 9900X should be faster. The reason 265K is faster

According to testers, Intel runs cooler at the same TDP than AMD. The reason why people say Intel runs hotter is because the TDP is generally much higher than AMD. For the Core Ultra 5 245K the TDP is 125w and could potentially turbo boost to 159w!!! while the 9600X is only 65w. So when I capped the

Hey there, I built one for myself with this as the primary use case besides gaming. What I'd suggest considering is a 5070. I understand the VRAM concern, but tell me about your workloads to better help you. From a socket perspective, I'd suggest AM5 any day of the week with the rationale in the oth

core ultra 5 245k + rx 9070, 1tb ssd but 16gb ram, and 750w psu, also with a good 1440p 200hz monitor, the gpu and cpu pair will perform better than the 7500F + rx 7800xt, but is kinda costlier, so if you strictly wanna keep it 1.5L you can do 7500F with the rx 9070 on a good b850/b840/b650 motherbo

Bro 1L budget is low for ddr5 productivity build Productivity side intel processor provides more value In this budget you won't be able to get a good gpu I suggest getting a intel 245k build with 32gb it will be enough for mostly any productivity work except for 3d Later on get a gpu Here's the buil

I tried coming up with a "decent" build and here's what I came up with (all brand new, but there's a little bit of problem, I'll tell later why): Intel Core Ultra 5 245K - ₱14,595 (via PC worth) - it has 14 cores and 14 threads that makes it ideal for medium multi tasking. I use Ultra 9 285k (24 cor

Intel CPU is best option for you 245K, 250K, 265K, 270K (250 and 270 are usually best) GPU you want minimum 5060ti 16GB for good production. Nvidia is best for 3D, 16GB vram is sweet sport. You want 32GB RAM at least 1TB ssd (easy to upgrade later) This is using the 270K Bundle deal from Newegg with
