Multimedia & Gaming 2K by AMD Ryzen 5 1400 + Gigabyte GTX 1070 Mini-ITX

Excellent equipment designed for the living room of our home, which goes beyond a simple multimedia system, it is a gamer equipment in a compact space that allows us to play 2K without problems.

You have asked us on many occasions for a gamer team to be able to connect to television and that will allow you to play 2K without problems. Today we bring you a more than enough proposal for this practice, based on the AMD Ryzen 5 1400 processor and an NVIDIA GTX 1070, in this case customized by Gigabyte and in mini-ITX format. A format that it shares with the motherboard and chassis, developed by Corsair with a mini-ITX format, capable of housing all the hardware without major problems. The set is priced at € 1190, but it is due to the high price of SSDs and RAM, the rise in price of NVIDIA graphics and the digital canon for HDDs, so we have gone about 25% than expected, due to the rise in the price of the components and we have already adjusted to the maximum, what cost.


AMD RYZEN 5 1400 3.2GHz BOXED


The choice of a processor, such as this AMD Ryzen 5 1400 is not a random choice, since we were looking for an excellent processor, with a great price and this is it. This processor has a total of four cores and eight processing threads, with a base frequency of 3.2GHz and a Boost mode of 3.4GHz, with overclocking capacity and a TDP of 65W. In addition, this processor gives us the Wraith Stealth heatsink, so we do not need to invest in an independent heatsink system. (PVP: 160.95 €)


BIOSTAR B350GTN


We have chosen an AMD Ryzen as a processor and as a motherboard compatible with this chassis, we have opted for a mini-ITX motherboard, with the B350 chipset, a great solution that reduces the price and allows us to overclock. Internally, this motherboard has two DDR4 DIMM sockets, maximum 32GB @ 2400MHz. This motherboard has a PCIe 3.0 x16 expansion port to install a graphics card, which we will talk about later. For storage, this motherboard has four SATA 6Gbps ports and a header for USB 3.0 ports on the front, as well as a connector for HD sound. Regarding the I / O panel, we find five USB 3.0 ports and one USB 3.1 Type-C, a PS / 2 port, it has HDMI and DVI video outputs, a Gigabit Ethernet port and 7.1 channel HD sound and S / PDIF digital sound. . (PVP: 103.95 €)


GIGABYTE GTX 1070 MINI-ITX OC 8GB


We are looking to make a powerful gaming team that allows us to play with a 2K resolution and that is why we have chosen this Gigabyte GTX 1070 Mini ITX OC 8GB GDDR5. This graphics card is a complete model of graphics card, which happens with a compact design, which makes it ideal for our system, we will have no problems mounting it. This graphics card has a base frequency of 1531MHz and in Boost mode it can reach 1746MHz. It has a powerful heatsink with a 100mm fan and in terms of video outputs, it has two DVI-D, an HDMI and a DisplayPort, all we need to connect anything. (PVP: 474.95 €)


CORSAIR FORCE LE200 240GB


For the primary storage, we have chosen to install an SSD, essential today in any gamer system worth its salt, as it provides us with a significant improvement in the overall performance of the system. We opted for the Corsair Force LE200 240GB drive, because it strikes us as a great drive, offering 550MB / s sequential read and 500MB / s sequential write. This unit has a somewhat limited capacity, but it is designed for the operating system and fundamental software, then we will save the games on the mechanical hard drive that we have selected for this function. (PVP: 105.95 €)


CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX RED 16GB (2x8GB 2400MHz)


The minimum, but minimum, minimum, of RAM memory for a gamer computer is 16GB, less than that is not recommended. As we look for everything from Corsair, we have opted for this pack of RAM, of excellent price, which has a CL14 latency and a working voltage of 1.2V. Something excellent is that these modules have a dissipation system, so they become a perfect solution for this system. (PVP: 156.95 €)


SEAGATE BARRACUDA 2TB


We have chosen, due to the limited capacity of the SSDs, to introduce an independent 2TB storage unit, where we can install the games and store data and files, such as videos, photos or important documents. We must bear in mind that these units have the digital canon in their price, that is why they have risen so much in price from one day to the next. (PVP: 75.95 €)


CORSAIR CX650 VS 80PLUS BRONZE 650W


We wanted to opt for a power supply that was powerful, enough not to fall short with possible extensions or system improvements or even to overclock the processor or graphics card, that's why we opted for the Corsair CX650 V2 80Plus Bronze, offering a power of 650W. It is undoubtedly an excellent solution, with an extremely adjusted price and that guarantees that at no time, despite the possible overclocking, we run out of power. (PVP: 82.95 €)


CORSAIR OBSIDIAN 250D


A very interesting solution to place next to our television and that is not the typical small height chassis or a complete tower, so we have looked for something different, opting for a cubic type chassis. This chassis has dimensions of 351x277x290mm, designed to support mini-ITX format motherboards. Internally it has the capacity to house two 2.5 ″ drives and also a 5.25 ″ optical drive, which can hold a 3.5 ″ or 2.5 ″ drive, depending on the user's needs. Regarding cooling, it supports 200mm or 140mm fans on the front, incorporating a 140mm fan in the upper area supports two 120mm fans, one of these installed and one of 80mm in the rear area, this one not included. Regarding connectivity, it has two USB 3.0 ports, a microphone input and a 3.5mm jack audio output. (PVP: 104.95 €)
