Hello friends...

I am looking for some websites similar to PC PartPicker:

https://pcpartpicker.com/

PCPartPicker is not giving me the detail I wish to see, and I wonder how current it's list of hardware is.

Can anyone here suggest other websites like the above?

Many thanks,

What info are you looking for that's missing on PCPartPicker? Considering you posted this thread in the Motherboards section, what info pertaining to motherboards are you looking for?

I am building a new desktop so I need everything. But I will post to the motherboard forum for help. PCPartsPicker does not let me select PCIe-4 or 5 slots.

Thanks

Hello...

I am building a desktop for my friend who uses Davinci Resolve to edit and render digital movies in 4K. His current system takes way too long to render the larger movies he needs to work on. He wants a faster desktop built. I went to PCPartPicker but they did not have the detail I needed to make good choices for my friend.

Can someone recommend a few other websites similar to PCPartBuilder to me?

Many thanks

Please stick to one thread unless you want spaghetti brains.

A person told me to post my question here rather then the forum I originally chose to post my question in. I am sorry. I thought he might be a moderator??

Which post should I delete?

Thank you for your help

Am I in the motherboard section? Is a sub forum here in the motherboard section? I do not know which forum to post my question. Can anyone suggest which forum to use?
Many thanks

Ideally, you follow this, and post in the Systems Forum.

You're looking for much more than just a motherboard.

I built an editing rig not too long ago. Really just comes down to budget, but generally you can pretty easily filter out boards with less features by looking for high counts of USB Type C, then narrow it down from there.

Pretty much all but the cheapest boards of the current generation run at least a single PCIe 5.0 x16 and a single PCIe 5.0 4x M.2 slot. Not that there are very many PCIe 5.0 4x drives worth buying or GPUs that need that much bandwidth.

ASRock Pro are my usual cheap go to board when on a budget. MSI Pro is decent as well.

Editing build I made for a coworker:
9950X
Thermalright Peerless Assassin
A small pile of Thermalright 120mm fans
X870E, MB had 4 M.2 drive slots
4TB Samsung 990 Pro was the main drive, I think there was boot drive as well that was smaller.
RTX 4080 Super
2x32GB 6400 CL32 Trident Z, we made a go at 4x32GB, but the fastest it would go was 3600, and unreliably at that.
I think it was in a Hyte chassis.
Some beefy power supply, been a few months.

He had been using a GTX1060 powered laptop, went from nearly 24 hours to encode a video to about 30 minutes.

Thanks for the many tips Eximo. I have not looked at the ASRock before but will take a took. Many thanks! mraroid
