Hello. Complete newbie pc builder here. Firstly, I'd like to thank you guys for the support. I just came here to ask if my build was ok, but I ended up reading reading Proximon's "Guide to choosing parts" and so much more. So thanks.
My Case explanation:
I am a newbie builder In Maldives and I need to build a Computer System for Digital content creation using blender and unreal engine 5. I asked chatgpt and then did some other research and came up with this:
Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 5800X
Motherboard: MSI B550 Tomahawk
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (2 x 16GB) DDR4 3200MHz
Storage: Samsung 970 EVO 1TB NVMe SSD
Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060
Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA 750W 80+ Gold
CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-D15
Case: Fractal design meshify C
My main questions:
1. Are there any problems with my build? (Are there any bad parts, incompatible parts, CPU GPU bottlenecking, will these parts fit in the case mentioned, etc)
2. Is there a way to make this cheaper? (Are there parts way above my need for digital content creation, are there parts that are overpriced, is it safe to buy some of these parts second hand, Maybe I can sign upto myUs and order everything from Newegg to get savings on shipping)
Other details:
Approximate Purchase Date: Black friday
Budget Range: $1600 max
Current configuration price:
Price before shipping: 1120
Shipping: 497
Total: 1617
System usage: Digital content creation (blender, unity 5 engine)
Are you buying a monitor: No (I have a hand-me-down TV. Hoping I can use that for now)
Do you need to buy OS: Yes, but I can handle that locally.
Preffered websites: Amazon, BH photo video, eBay.
Websites not considering yet:
1. Aliexpress (I heard some vendors provide bad quality stuff and I can't tell them apart as a newbie)
2. Newegg (They don't deliver directly to Maldives. However, I can sign up to MyUs and buy to save on shipping based on your suggestions)
Location: Maldives
Parts preferences:
1. AMD processor is a must.
2. Nvidia graphics card. ( I've been told that better multicore performance is better for workstations.)
Overclocking: maybe
SlI Crossfire: No
Monitor resolution: Don't know. Planning to use an old TV at home for now.
Additional comments: I want an AMD processor system for digital content creation. I want to prevent unnecessary spending and to make it cheaper if possible. Anything else can change based on your advice. I am ready to spend for a better power supply as I know how important it is now. I could even start buying some of the cheaper components before black Friday if you approve of the components.
Why am I upgrading: Digital content creation (blender and unreal engine 5)
