[SOLVED] My new pc

[chris.bartzavali]

I am going to make this pc:

cpu:AMD Ryzen 7 1700X
cpu cooler:NZXT Kraken X62
gpu:Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8GB
ssd:Samsung 860 Evo 250GB
hdd:Seagate Firecuda 2TB
ram:G.Skill RipjawsV 16GB DDR4-3200MHz
mobo:Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro
psu:Corsair RMi Series RM750i
case:NZXT H500

I just wanted to know if something wrong with it.I mean i am a noob at pc building so i dont know if i have selected wrong components that they are not compatible with each other.(is cpu cooler compatible with the cpu etc..)

It's rock solid & all compatible.

I'd ask though why the gen 1 ryzen when the newer gen 2s are readily available

Unless Of course you're getting it for a very good price?

Thanks idk why gen 1.. Is something in the same price(better than AMD Ryzen 7 1700X) gen 2?

What's your location & how much is the ryzen 1700x??

At the right price its still worth buying but in all honesty even a ryzen 5 2600 is actually a little stronger for gaming & if its cheaper would probably make more sense

The newer ryzen have better efficiency & higher boost clocks so out of the box they're a more sensible choice.

I live in Greece, here ryzen 1700x is about 192 € and ryzen 5 2600 is 165 €
So its worth it to buy ryzen 5 2600 instead of ryzen 1700x?
(I'll use it for gaming, video editing/rendering and more)

Also I am not sure if the gpu will fit in the case (gpu link https://www.skroutz.gr/s/13177426/Gigabyte-GeForce-GTX-1070-Ti-8GB-GV-N107TGAMING-8GD.html) it has got 3 fans and its really big.I do not know exact dimensions.

 

[chris.bartzavali]

Is there any intel cpu that is better than ryzen for gaming? (At the same price)

 

[madmatt30]

No not really, the i5 8400 is the closest competitor to the ryzen 2600 but is €240.

The gpu you picked will fit in the nzxt h500 fine.

Rather than the 1700x & the kraken have you considered the 2700x with its stock cooler??

Although that 1700x is admittedly excellent value at less than €200

 

[chris.bartzavali]

Thanks. I will buy 2700x.
