[SOLVED] Help, Is this pc build good?

[igShattered]

Hi, I want to make a PC build that can run games at +60 FPS on Medium-High Settings. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on this current build I’m planning on making. I do plan on overclocking for better performance. I’d like to keep it below $1500 and I want to be able to play games such as...

Any form of feedback is much appreciated!

-Fortnite
-Rainbow Six Siege
-Destiny
-Grand Theft Auto
-CoD
-The Crew
and etc

Made you a nice build here:

For left over money you can add better or more storage.

 

[JonhySmith]

Oh just seen you plan overclocking then add a better cooler. Also it's no need for overclocking this build can do 1440p at 144hz sometimes even on ultra.

Oh, I underestimated this build. I had no idea it could run at those settings, thanks!

In my build you get almost top of the line gpu, so yeah. And the games you want to play are not heavy.

If I do end up overclocking, how is this cpu cooler?
Cpu Cooler (Ryzen 3600)

You better take the be quiet! Dark rock pro 4. It's good silent cooler.
But still no extreme overclock.
You need water cooler for extreme overclocking, which I don't recommend, because it can leak and destroy your whole pc.

I was recommended that cpu cooler by my friend too, he has it in his build and the highest his temperature has gone is 67.

This case is overpriced. I like the h500 case.
Or h500i for included rgb.

should I buy extra case fans and if so, how many

 

[JonhySmith]

Yes, 4 would be the best.

alright, thanks so much for the advice! Here’s the build with new components!

Nice build.

 

[JonhySmith]

But, my pc would do much better.
Look here:
https://gpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Nvidia-RTX-2080-vs-AMD-RX-590/4026vs4033

2080 is much better than 590.

 

[JonhySmith]

Rx590 is used in $800 builds not $1500.

I’m in Canada so your build is $1900 for me as for my build, it’s only $1400

Instead of the 2080 I think I’m going to go with the 2060 Super that way it’s not too expensive.

 

[JonhySmith]

Oh OK, but know that your build won't be able to do 1440p 144hz.

why not?

 

[JonhySmith]

Because graphics card is not strong enough.

Btw the 2060s is a good gpu for 1440p. If you want rockstable 144fps you will have to decrease image quality at some point anyways.

Playing on low is not a pleasant experience, but 100fps should be doable on medium.
