Hi,
so, yeah, I decided to get a new PC, because upgrading the one I have is a waste of money.
Here's the list of all the components (with the prices in Euros on Amazon Italy, where I live):

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x - 309.99
  • ARCTIC MX-4 2019 Edition 4 g Thermal Paste - 9.39
  • Mobo: MSI B450-A PRO MAX ATX AM4 - 105
  • RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 CL16 - 89
  • Storage: Seagate BarraCuda 1 TB and Western Digital Blue 250 GB 2.5" SSD - 35 and 51.80
  • GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER 6 GB Twin Fan - 269.75
  • Case: Cooler Master MasterBox NR600 (w/ODD) ATX Mid Tower - 73.61
  • PSU: EVGA BR 600 W 80+ Bronze - 61.99
  • be quiet! Pure Wings 2 140 61.2 CFM 140 mm Fans (3 fans) - 11.99 x3
For a total of 1041.50 Euros.

I wanted a build for editing/some streaming and gaming (mostly CS:GO as of rn).
My budget is like 1100/1150 max (it's better if it's cheaper)... and are all components good/compatible? Is the cooling allright? Do you have any tips or advice (I'd like it to be kinda silent, if possible)?
Thank you in advance. :D

Okay, thank you.
Do you think it's a good build for my budget or should I change some parts? Maybe from your experience with brands, etc...
There is nothing wrong that I can see. There will always be somebody that thinks GPU "X" is better than "Y". Or get case "Z" because of the LED lighting, etc.
I am not a gamer, and don't like LEDs so I can't comment on those specific aspects.

Why thermal paste, when you don't have any aftermarket cooler?
