I'm unsure whether to go for the AsRock B450m Pro4 or the MSI B450m Pro-VDH MAX.... Anyone have any thoughts on this, or knows which is better?

I'm building a pc for my gf, budget of about £500/USD600 (+-100). She'll mainly be using it for light gaming (Sims, Civ 6 etc), browsing and work. I've got this planned so far, wondering if people have any comments or would like to even propose an entirely new build for me, I'm all ears. Much...

I've got an RTX 2060 Super, Ryzen 5 3600 CPU. Looking for a monitor now, deciding between a 1080p 144hz one or a 1440p 144hz one. Basically, I'm wondering what resolution can my RTX 2060S run most comfortably at? I'm a casual gamer not competitive, mainly playing games like GTA V, COD MW, RDR2...

Yeah, that's my concern exactly! But most reports suggests it would only be available next year onwards... And I kind of wanna make sure of the RTX promo and get COD for free with it now, it ends soon. @RodroX Yeah,the Asus TUF X570 was my second choice, crazy good reviews about it. Just went...

Which RTX 2060 Super should I look at getting? Are most manufacturer's the same, with very slight difference (probs not noticeable)? I've read bad things (well, on a random thread on a forum) about the cooling issues gigabyte RTX cards are having, any of it true? link here...

Ahh right ok. Thanks! The rest of the components should all work well together right? Any comments?

Hi all, here's my new finished configuration. Wondering if anyone has anything to add/say about it, any major issues that I've not spotted perhaps? PC part picker says there might be an issue with my Cryorig H7 on the Tomahawk, so I'm keen to hear from anyone about that. Many thanks in advance...

@NightHawkRMX Thanks for this - since I got swayed to go for the R5 3600, I need to redo my MB research now haha. I'm wondering, which MB would you recommend I go for with the R5 3600 (probs around the 200£/USD mark like you suggested)? I'd need WiFi, and I believe it's cheaper to get it on the...

Thank you very much you guys, you've been amazing with all the comments and suggestions. Honestly, very grateful for your time

Planning on getting the AMD Ryzen 5 3600, with the RTX 2060 Super. Frankly, I don't really know much about the resolution/hz or what my set up can achieve, any idea what sort of resolution will work best? Also, maybe not 144hz, just something a tad higher than the current 60hz i have.

@King_V I'd be getting a new monitor to go with the PC, probably a 144hz or so, freesync/GSync depends on the GPU. I'll definitely be getting the AMD then haha, based on the overwhelming love for it. But is the Ryzen 5 3600X worth the extra dosh over the Ryzen 5 3600?

Hi all, Going for an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 CPU or maybe, just maybe an i5-9600K. Wondering which GPU would be best paired with these processors? The Radeon RX 5700, 5700XT or the RTX 2060 Super? I'm kind of leaning towards the RTX 2060 Super, but wondered what people think. I've read that there were...

Thanks for that. Is the stock cooler that comes with the 3600 any good? Would I need to get another, eg: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO? Looking at this motherboard: Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard. Thoughts?

Thanks a lot guys, really appreciate it! Looks like the 3600 it is. Should I bother with the 3600X, is it worth the extra? Also, do you have any motherboards to recommend? The X570 perhaps?

Thanks for that guys, had good points there. Now, I'm wondering for the GPU, does my CPU type (AMD/Intel) dictate which GPU(Nvidia/AMD) I get? ie. would an AMD gpu work better with an AMD cpu? or would the RTX work just as well? I guess what I'm trying to say here is I think we've established...
