[SOLVED] Is this pc good?

[Triasis ghosh]

I am building a pc with following specs:-
1.ryzen 5 3600
2.aorus b450 elite
3.team group delta 3200 mhz 16 gb(8*2)
4.gigabyte 1660 super gaming oc (3 fans and RGB)
5.antec nx600 case
6.corsair cx550
7.wd 1 tb hdd (blue)
8.corsair mp510 250 gb ssd
9.Lg 22mp68vq monitor.

I want to overclock the cpu but i can't afford a cpu cooler now.i would save some money and buy a be quiet dark rock pro 4 latter.

Is the system okay? Feel free to give suggestions.

It's a perfectly decent 1080p gaming rig.

 

[zero_l0gic]

Not decent, its a very good 1080p rig and will make you happy for few years. Maybe get a watercooler for cpu some AIO and you can OC the cpu very good. Get a rx5700xt when you get the $$$$ for it and tou will have a decent 2k rig.

 

[Hope Ohara]

Yes, it's very very good, don't you even doubt

Why does the OP specifically need to put an AIO on a Ryzen 3600???

There's very little headroom available on these chips anyways. Overclocking beginners/newbies will actually yield worse results than PBO + Auto OC.

Get a rx5700xt when you get the $$$$ for it and tou will have a decent 2k rig.

That gpu would warrant a case change.
The design of the Antec NX600 makes me cringe. It's an enemy to all high power gpus.

More cooling power for less noise that is what AIO are used for last time i checked.

And 400mhz is a good OC boost, not sure what you meant little headroom? Why would anyone use AutoOC? Google how to OC ryzen 5 3600 on this board and copy the settings, its 2019 we OC smartwatches you think people cant find out how to OC a cpu like a pro?


And how will the gpu not fit in the case?? Case has 360mm room for gpu and rx5700xt is around 280mm and the biggest one i found was 290mm.

Only with the highest end AIO’s. The average 120 to 280mm AIO’s can be matched in both cooling performance and lower noise by a high quality and often cheaper air cooler. The key benefit is an AIO can be configured to dump the hot air outside the case but nearly all AIO’s provide less VRM cooling. A large part of the draw for AIO’s is they look better.

 

[zero_l0gic]

Most AIO coolers have higher TDP then air coolers. Yes air coolers are good but have air cooler on 1200-2000 rpm or an AIO with 600-1200 rpms your choice. Not to say 360 rads can go even lower rpm for same TDP.

 

[herrwizo]

While AIOs can have low rpm, they can (and mostly do) still end up noisier than any half-decent air cooler, mainly due to water pump. Air coolers also tend to be more reliable, especially in long-term. No liquid to leak, no pump to fail. They also cool VRMs, which is very important. And even if the fan itself fails, the heatsink would still provide passive cooling so no major problem there.

To each his own, but AIOs are, at least in my eyes, only justified when you have clearance issues within the case which you cannot solve by any other means, or for high-end overclocked rigs. In fact, even for the latter they are probably a waste of money since you will be better off with a custom water loop.

What they DO provide, is the flashy RGB lights and "bragging rights" to say that you have a watercooled rig, when it fact it could be just as well cooled with a $40 air cooler.

The pump is an extra source of noise to contend with.
If a user is smart about their choice of case, the air cooler is often quieter.

And 400mhz is a good OC boost, not sure what you meant little headroom?

So you guarantee all Ryzen 3600s can be manually overclocked by that much regardless of silicon quality, and that the gains are significant over someone just running on PBO + Auto OC?
Not sure if you meant +400 from the base, or the advertised single core boost though. The latter would be pretty ambitious...

Why would anyone use AutoOC?

PBO + Auto OC. You can run them together.
They were pretty wonky during the earlier bios patches though.

Google how to OC ryzen 5 3600 on this board and copy the settings, its 2019 we OC smartwatches you think people cant find out how to OC a cpu like a pro?

Geez... people are overclocking smart watches...

"Google how to... copy the settings... OC a cpu like a pro..."
Damn. That's just an insult to the hobby... copy settings and become a pro overclocker, NICE!
Yeah, just completely forgo all the testing and troubleshooting involved - I'm sure someone else's profile will work regardless of the cpu/mobo/ram combination. 🤔
And let's not forget about the silicon...

And how will the gpu not fit in the case?? Case has 360mm room for gpu and rx5700xt is around 280mm and the biggest one i found was 290mm.

Where in my post do I say the gpu wouldn't fit?
I was referring to yet another potential scenario of a builder putting a high power gpu like the RX 5700XT, in a hot box of a case, like the Antec NX600.
Surely you know about this? It's kind of become a fad.
People taking RX 5700XTs, 2070 Supers, 2080s, 2080Tis, etc., and then stuffing them in cases like the NZXT H500... and then later complaining about temps, black screens, and crashes.

I don't want to over clock or anything. Also rX5700 XT IS beyond my budget.by the way I just need some more rgb in my system.does the thermatake ux100 works worse than stock cooler of ryzen 5 3600?
If the performance of ux100 and stock are same then I will buy the former for just the rgb.

You want RGB so badly that you've no problem tossing out $20USD for a cooler that's slightly worse than the included stock?

What about your plan for getting a Dark Rock Pro 4(no RGB) later? Change of plans?
At least aim for a Hyper 212 RGB, or MasterAir MA410M.

If I had to be picky I would save a bit more money and get a better gpu. But thats just me. I like higher framerates for lower frametimes.

If you play mostly story based, single player games the 1660 would be great. However in games like Apex Legends, COD:MW, etc (AAA Titles) that are more competatively played by people with higher framerates, 60-90 fps just doesnt seem okay in those scenarios, especially when theres 1% and 0.1% lows of 30-50fps. But thats if your a competative gamer. And I dont mean competative as in playing in tournaments and stuff. I just mean your gameplay style.

I mean you can get a 2060 for just 100$ more and I feel that would be about the minimum most players, like me, would want to have when it came to fps/performance. Throw an OC on that 2060 and your almost at a 2060 super, which is a 400-450$ card.

Or you could even get a AMD 5700 which is better than the 2060 in a lot of games, and comes in at the same price point as the 2060 at around 340$

Please don't mind but I think,as I am already spending almost 1130 usd for this pc then a 20 usd is just minor.And i am not diverted from plan for a dark rock 4 pro,till then i am not going to oc the cpu and i dont need a 40-50usd cooler as stock performance with a RGB is enough for me until I get the dark rock.

Is thermaltake ux100 worse than stock wraith stealth (not wraith spire or prism) or just same thermal performance?

Roughly the same - I'd say slightly worse than the Wraith Stealth, because of the fan.
