[SOLVED] Fist Build — Recommendations / Help

[Foouur]

Hello, it is my first time building a pc. I read many reviews and watched many videos over the last weeks. (1500€ limit) But I am still not sure if my build is good. Would be greatly appreciate if you guys could help me.

That's my part list: https://de.pcpartpicker.com/list/nXngHB

I am not 100% sure if these parts are all good.

Is everything compatible?

Any Bottleneck?

And does everything fits into the case ?
Tanks guys!

hi,i made tweakes so your build is exacly 1500$,but its also way better:https://pcpartpicker.com/list/NmHj7T

WHAY I DID:
-Same cpu
-Put a x570 for the next gen of nvidia gpus (mainly because x570 has pcie 4.0)
-double the capacity of your ram and put 3600 mhz instead of 3200mhz
1tb of crucial p1 M.2's (x2) cuz nobody wants hdds anymore and these are like 20 times faster+plus you have 2tb
-put a 5700xt cuz its cheaper than rtx 2070 and its bassically similar in performance
-Same case
-way better psu cuz i dont know if your pc would boot with that 550W psu.Now it has 850W with 80+gold efficiency.

Enjoy and tell what u think

Sorry but i dont really have time to check out if it fits you can check it your self but impretty sure it will be ok.Main things to look for are the gpu size,cooler height,and is the ram "low enough"so it can be easily removed without taking out the cpu cooler everytime.

5700XT is a joke of a card -esp when combined with the terrible drivers. Get the Nvidia and forget the AMD stuff.

?
5700XT is not bad at all.I gotta admit there are some bad drivers lately,but you are talking like its the worst card ever.Its amazing for its price and while the NVIDIA might be the favourite between the brands that doesnt mean the other things are trash.If he buys the 5700XT he can save up some money to buy that "better NVIDIA stuff" later on when the 30 series comes out (which i would cuz i heard it will be amazing)

 

[gg83]

Would the 3600 non x be a good choice if on sale for really cheap. Which it might soon? Then have the extra 50$ or so? Just a thought and not accusing anyone of being dumb. If anyone is dumb it's me.

The RAM is 3200MT/s b-die CL14. F4-3200C14D-16GFX G.Skill Flare X / 3200C14 8.8ns / 16GB 2 sticks SR. Better for performance, could overclock to 3600MT/s CL16.
Tested Latency 14-14-14-34 https://www.gskill.com/specification/165/170/1535961634/F4-3200C14D-16GFX-Specification Not on the motherboards memory compatibility list but should be fine as this is a Samsung b-die kit. My b-die kit was not on my motherboards memory compatibility list and works with a decent overclock.

The choice of GPU recommends 650 watts. https://www.gigabyte.com/uk/Graphics-Card/GV-N207SWF3OC-8GD/sp#sp

Power calculator puts you at 500 watts. With the overclock on the GPU that will put you too close to 550 watts imo. Overclock the 3700x and you will very close to max'ing out your PSU.

This website states both motherboard and graphics card fit your case but no information on the CPU cooler. https://pangoly.com/en/review/fractal-design-meshify-c-tg/compatibility/motherboard#compatible-list

 

[GarrettL]

I wouldn't recommend any motherboard other than the B550 or x570. Wait till June for the B550's, don't have buyers remorse in a year or two.

Your OS & Applications go on the 500GB SSD and the games go on the 2TB SSD. The CPU cooler is very good and at an excellent price. 5700XT offers 92-95% the performance of the 2070 Super for 75% the price.
