My first build - what do you think?

[ealives]

Ok, this is my first build, and I'm wondering what ppl who have done this before think.

Ryzen 1300x
ASRock AB350 Fatal1ty Gaming K4 motherboard
8GM Patriot Viper Elite DDR4 2400 RAM
Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1050 GPU
Corsair MP500 120 GB SSD
Samsung EVO 850 500 GB SSD

Everything booted on the first try. I have the CPU overclocked to 3800 at 1.275 volts.

I ran Cinebench, and it came in at 576, with 89 FPS.

So, is this good?

Here are pics of the computer.

I'm only 13, and this is the first time I've built a computer, so go easy on me.

ram too slow, 3000+ dual channel
1050 too weak for AAA games. 120 gb ssd money -> get 1050 ti, 1060 3gb or 6gb.

I don't play any AAA games right now. And the RAM was what I had already

I just started playing games on my computer, so I did not want to spend too much, and then decide I was not that into it.

Will the RAM make a big difference?

 

[vapour]

If not AAA games, your build is fine. You should get 1600 at that time Anyway, you may consider Zen2 when it comes out

 

[vapour]

2400 and 3200 will show big diff in some AAA games, like: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ajbr0lJDVvk

Is a temp of around 33 OK with it overclocked to 3.8 ghz? I'm using the stock cooler, but have an AIO I can install if I need to.

Wait, Zen 2?

Are they changing it already? Didn't Ryzens just come out?

 

[vapour]

Zen2 will use same socket, yeah, tech is developing so fast.

under load temp < 85 is good. Try realbench/aida64 stress test to make sure it is stable.

For a budget build it okay.

When you upgrade your RAM a 16GB kit should be purchased. Don't go cheap and just buy an 8GB module for a total of 12GB. RAM are sold in kits for a reason. They are going to be compatible. Another module with identical specs will usually work. We and those at other forums hear from the people when it doesn't. Save yourself some headaches.

3800 is usually referred to as 3.8GHz. Speed is one thing. How are the temps.? Voltage?

I'd also run Intel's burn test,Firestrike and https://benchmark.unigine.com/heaven.

Make sure you never fill that SSD up. Leave at least 12GB free.

Nice cable management for a neat case interior.

The temps are running between 30 and 33 celcius. The voltage is at 1.2875

I have a 120 AIO I can install, but I liked how the stock cooler looked. It was a lot neater/cleaner than the hoses with the AIO

 

[vapour]

Keep your stock, no need for extra AIO

I just did not like the way the AIO would have looked. The hoses would have been all over the case.

Hopefully I can sell it
