I'm putting together a build that I want to use mainly to play CS:GO and replace my current "gaming" laptop. However, I plan to mostly use this computer for standard work and a little bit of GoPro video editing/creation. I do also want to have a system with components that will last me more than a few years. I know I could easily go out and buy a pre-built system on Dell with my company discount for >$1000 but there's no fun in doing that, so I'd like to build something to my desires. Seeing as how I'm not the most computer savvy person out there, I'm hoping someone or multiple people can review my build and give me feedback:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700
MB: MSI B350M Gamin Pro AM4 AMD Micro ATX
Graphics: Sapphire Nitro Radeon RX 480 4GB 256-big GDDR5 PCI-e 3.0 Xfire support
RAM: CORSAIR Vengeance LPX 8GB 288-pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 2400 (PC4 19200) [2x4GB sticks]
PSU: RaidMax Hybrid 2 RX-530SS 530W, Xfire ready, Modular
Storage: Seagate FireCuda Gaming SSHD 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal drive; Sandisk SDSSDA-120GB
CASE: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-02 Mid-Tower Gaming Case
I think from my own research, I could be just fine getting the AMD FX-8370 with the wraith cooler and building from there, not to mention it would be cheaper, but I also realize that the 8370 is 30 months old at this point.
