Hi people, regards from Argentina!
I'm trying to build a home pc, basically for games and daily uses (browsing, videos, etc). The problem is that in my country the hardware could be classified in two ways: old/outdated components at a very high price and newer components at extremely expensive prices. With that in mind, what I want to build is something that will last at least 5 years without me having to make a lot of modifications to it. If you could give me your opinions, I'd be very grateful.
Approximate Purchase Date: this week or next week at the most.
Budget Range: $1600 ($60.000 pesos)
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Games, browsing, movies.
Are you buying a monitor: No, i have a Samsung FHD 32"
Parts to Upgrade: CPU, Mobo, RAM, , SSD, Case
Do you need to buy OS: No, I currently use Windows 7 but plan to switch to Win 10
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Well, basically they're two places, averaging variety and price: Compragamer , Mercadolibre . Please, don't laugh too hard!
Location: Buenos Aires, Argentina
Parts Preferences: Intel, msi, Gigabyte (but I'm open to any option)
Overclocking: Maybe in the future
SLI or Crossfire: No
Your Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
I'm going to reuse MSI Gtx 1070 Ti, WD Blue 1T
The prices are in dollars as of today, between parentesis the price in Argentine pesos. Some things I will buy in cash and others with credit card
Intel Core i7 9700K $640.68 (23.780 pesos)
Msi Mpg Z390 Gaming Edge Ac $336 (12.500 pesos) or Gigabyte Z390 Aorus Pro Wifi $318 (11.800 pesos)
Cooler Master Master Air MA410P RGB $52 (1950 pesos)
Kingston DDR4 8GB 2666MHz HyperX Fury Black X2 $183 (6.810 pesos)
SSD Gigabyte UD Pro 512GB $123 (4.600 pesos)
Sentey Z20 $94 (3.500 pesos)
Seasonic 620W M12II-620 80+ Bronze Full Modular $88 (3.300 pesos) or Seasonic 750W Focus 80 PLUS Gold $140 (5.200 pesos)
Why I chose this configuration:
-An 8700K is at the same price (or more expensive) than the 9700K, so I prefer to spend more on a Mobo Z390 and already be updated on that side.
-A Mobo with Wifi built-in so I don't have to add a wifi board, which -possibly- adds more heat (I currently have a tp link board).
-For the moment I'm not going to do OC, I guess with the fans that comes with the cabinet and the cpu heatsink I'm covered in terms of temperature, without the need to add air or water ventilation.
-The PSU I would like to be complete modular, I think that with the 620W I'm doing well, but if im do not misunderstand the Z390 Mobo`s need power type 1 x 8-pin ATX 12V power connector.
1 x 4-pin ATX 12V power connector, what I don't know is without OC is necessary those connections.
Well, I guess that's it. I hope to have been as specific as possible, any questions you have let me know. A thousand apologies for the long post!
