I need help for something...

[Fricotype0]

So, about 2 years ago I bought my first computer. I then upgraded it after, but now it feels kind of i don't know, under-powered(if that's the word) and it seems behind on the times now. Should I build this computer or keep my Lenovo H50-55 with Nvidia gtx 1050? Computer Build list - https://pcpartpicker.com/list/TVg3xY

What do you do with it? If gaming a 1600 and a 1060 would perform muchuch better

No need for an extra CPU cooler, the bundled Wraith CPU cooler does a fine job on its own.
The Trident memory seems widely compatible with Ryzen builds and 16Gb is enough for a gaming rig.
Neat as it is the Tesseract lacks cooling capacity, consider the Fractal Design case as a superior placeholder.
If you want to play at 4K rez that GTX1080 will be a must.
I've dropped the soundcard, unless you're an audiophile the built in sound should be OK.

^ Especially on a Ryzen build.

Assuming a gaming build and that you don't need masses of memory for other purposes, how's this grab you?

No because of the 1080. I dont think I would need it because my own computer runs fine with a 1050.

Your linked build shows a 4K display, a GTX1050 will run that kind of display as a slideshow!

Oops sorry. I forgot about performance in 4k. I will fix 4k.
