Are my GPU and CPU equipped to handle distant horizons at medium settings?

I plan on getting a NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 ti graphics card paired with an intel core i9 13900k what settings for distant horizons would you guys recommend? Also which is better? Fabric or Forge?

Use Fabric Its more modern and has better optimisation mods

are you just gonna game with the cpu? do you want recommendations from AMD gpu's as well?

What does this have to do with the question? Or are you just offering to suggest AMD GPUs?
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
not much, but a 13900k paired with a 4060 ti is a really weird combination, just looking if they realize that
MarijnIsN00B
MarijnIsN00B9mo ago
Ohh yeah true

.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
For like future upgrades yes, right now the cpu and gpu is what I can afford for now I didn’t know that
MarijnIsN00B
MarijnIsN00B9mo ago
Yeah that CPU is pretty overkill Id get a lower end one and a better GPU
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
that
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Ok thanks!
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
if you want to i can also suggest a cpu / gpu if you give a budget
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
What cpu would you recommend that’s intel? I can’t really change it to amd cause then I’d have to change the mother board I have I have a $1,900 ish budget
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
for just the cpu and gpu? you can get a 13900k + 4080 super or 7900xtx for that money
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I meant like the whole pc in total Mb I should have specified
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
what components do you plan to keep? just the motherboard?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I already have a motherboard If the cpu is over kill I can down grade it and go for a 4070
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you did not answer the question are you using a translator?

My PC I recently built is way under $1900 with even better parts. I reaaaally did my research on each part before I built it. This will be the best combination within your budget, hands-down. Here's the list of parts I bought: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/CAShep/saved/#view=9bCmLk
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
No I just didn’t understand the question mb
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
You can put some of the extra money on a better CPU but it won't make much of a difference, DH is really CPU intensive and no matter what CPU you have it will be slow
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you went the other way lol, too cheap cpu with a too expensive gpu although this combination will work if youre using a 4k monitor the ssd is a bit overpriced because its samsung and there are better cpu coolers for the money like the phantom spirit but yea, apart from the cpu/gpu mismatch it is not a bad build
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
Like I said, I did my research. This is the best CPU you're going to get for this budget, the more expensive ones aren't worth the money. The GPU is the best you're going to get for the price, it's very underrated and the performance difference between the 4070 ti and the 4080 are negligable.
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
i disagree but sure
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I’ll just show you the parts I plan on getting
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
I wouldn't recommend getting a cheaper GPU than this especially if you're going to use shaders. RT shaders run pretty good on the 4070 but on any lower GPU it's not going to run as smoothly
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
not everyone wants RT sure!
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
The reason I chose the i9 is because I also heard it’s good for content creation and over clocking
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you really dont want overclocking on the 13900k it will kill inself in a few months/years and suck a lot of power while it is one of the fastest for content creation, if youre going with a lower end cpu you probably wont notice a difference what cpu do you have now?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I don’t have one yet This is my first build Ever
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you have the motherboard but not the cpu?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Let me check the box real quick since I don’t remember it off the top of my head Intel core i3 i3-9100f
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
about the power supply, how much is it and how much is the MSI MAG A850GL where you live? the motherboard is a Intel core i3 i3-9100f? can you be clearer?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
No the cpu is
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
but you didnt have a cpu you said... im not following, sorry
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
My bad I wasn’t clear enough I was referring to the i9 My apologies
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
lets start over. what components do you have now? are there any parts that you want to transfer to the new build?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Asus prime h610m-e d4 motherboard with the intel core i3
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you cant use that motherboard with the 13900k it uses a different socket
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
It does? Crap
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
so youll need to buy a new mb
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Damn Ahh ok
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
Either new motherboard or new CPU
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
so no parts that you want to transfer to the new build? it will be a clean slate? both he's not gonna buy a 9900k
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
No absolutely not, nor should he
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Sounds out of my price range
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
its way worse than the 13900k it might be outside of your price range because its very old now and there are not a lot you can find the reason i said you are not gonna buy a 9900k is because that is the best cpu your motherboard can handle but its not good thats why you need a new motherboard
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I might be able to get a new mother board I’ll see if I can bend the budget a bit
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
for 1900 dollars you absolutely can do you care about ray tracing toji?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Yes I do The most I can spend on a new motherboard would be around $200

i went with this case because that is what you also chose you probably wont need more fans i think it comes with 3 of them
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I just went with the fans because I wanted a black case with white fans
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
ah alright
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
Hey if you really want to go balls out, get the world's fastest gaming CPU: AMD's Ryzen 7 7800X3D
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
then you can add those yep that is a good product i have it as well
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
That sounds crazy strong
Cashep
Cashep9mo ago
Save some money on the ssd, get the 970 instead of the 990
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
or the SN850X because the samsung tax is real
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I don’t think I’ll be changing the Corsair fans or aio I’ll definitely change the cpu and graphics card And get a new motherboard
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
what do you think about this parts list?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I like the mb, cpu and the ssd and the gpu might be doable Also I think I have the ssd in my cart
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
you really dont need an aio for the 7700 but if you like the astetic you can go for it
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Would the Western Digital WD_BLACK 2TB SN770 NVMe Internal Gaming SSD Solid State Drive - Gen4 PCIe, M.2 2280, Up to 5,150 MB/s - WDS200T3X0E bet a better alternative for the ssd? There both similar I think
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
it is a worse drive, but if you can get it for a lot cheaper it might be worth it

.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I’ll stick to the one in your list, it’s also 10 bucks cheaper Ok yea I’ve figured something out It only breaks the budget by 150 ish which isn’t too bad
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
What does your parts list look like now?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
All the same except the cpu, gpu, ram, and mb I picked your mother board CPU gpu and ram are AMD Ryzen 7 7700 8-Core, 16-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor, Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 ($549 + free shipping), and B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI motherboard
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
So you picked the rm850x over the pure power 12m? Sounds good!
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Oh and CORSAIR VENGEANCE RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz CL36 Intel XMP iCUE Compatible Computer Memory - Black (CMH32GX5M2E6000C36) No I kept the Corsair power supply
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
You don't want that ram It's cl36
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Oh ok What’s that mean
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Alright, it's your money lol But it's not like the rm850x is bad
Miki_P98
Miki_P989mo ago
latency
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Ohh ok I see Then I’ll get that one instead
Miki_P98
Miki_P989mo ago
iirc AMD sweet spot is 6000 MT/s CL 30 Intel one is 6400 MT/s CL 32 but you don't lose much performance on it maybe 3% going from 6400 MT/s CL 30 to 6000 MT/s CL 32 you can always overclock it later by 2 CL usually without issues tuning the sub-timings would give you more performance then that though
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I’ll get the ripjaw one then since it’s better And cheaper too And it’s free shipping
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
If it's 6000mhz and it's 30cl it's good Brand doesn't really matter Just make sure it's ddr5
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I found one
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Nice
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
It’s RGB DDR5 RAM 32GB (2x16GB) 6000MHz
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
And the cl is 30?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Yes
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
You say yes, but the image says it's 36? Or am I reading it wrong?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I have no idea Is 36 too much? Or too little? Nvm it says it may not work with amd processors very well So I’m going to stick to the ripjaw ram It’ll just run a bit slower than the Corsair ddr5 one
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Why? Wat is the MHz and cl on that one?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Doesn’t ddr4 run a bit slower than ddr5?
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Do not get ddr4 Your motherboard only supports ddr5
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
Then I’ll be sticking to the Corsair one which has ddr5
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
And 6000mhz cl30?
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
I found one that has cl30 and 6000mhz
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Alright, if it's not a lot more expensive than the Corsair 6000 cl36 one, take that
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
It’s 24 bucks more which I don’t mind
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Sounds good!
.mr_stoic.
.mr_stoic.OP9mo ago
As long as it works that’s what matters
Puhpine
Puhpine9mo ago
Fair lol
