Is this a good pc build?

[chaselgator]

Im looking to get into pc gaming. I was looking at digital storm computers, but i am on a budget of no more than $700 with operating system. Does this build look good to you guys? Will everything fit? https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vgTFRG

Yes but I would suggest going with 2x4GB DDR4 3000 if you can. Faster memory in dual-channel will help in gaming.

Not bad at all, but Ryzen likes fast RAM and like MrN1ce9uy said a better PSU is advisable.

Looks good, but I would get 4x2 memory rather than 8x1, and you should get an SSD for the Operating system. If I were you, I would get a 60 or 120 gigabyte SSD and a 500 gigabyte Hard Drive. Hope this helps!

It's really good. IMO a Ryzen 5 with 16 GB with a good clock speed would be devastating. One small complain, I feel like the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU a very small bit. A better option would also be a GTX 1060 6GB instead but being honest it's an amazing budget build. Obviously I'm gonna say another "You need a better PSU", it's annoying but it's needed.

Would a Ryzen 5 1400 be better? Or a Ryzen 5 1500x? (which one of the 2), but if its not worth the extra money and the Ryzen 3 is still good lmk aswell.

You'll have to post your permalink. The link you posted is a generic link that will show anyone the last list they had.

Yep looks good.

The Corsair CX450 (2017) made it on TH's Top PSUs of 2017, while the EVGA B3 (they have several cheap bronze units) failed the OPP test and blew up during the review testing.
