Hi All,

I want to build a new gaming PC that can run all games on high or very high settings for at least 3 to 5 years.
My current list for the Case is:
  • Ryzen 5 3600X
  • MSI RTX 2080 GAMING X TRIO
  • 16x2 ddr4 3200 mhz cl16 corsair vengeance ram
  • Corsair Force Series MP600 1TB
  • ASUS AM4 TUF Gaming X570-Plus
  • Noctua NH-D15
  • Seasonic Focus GX-750, 750W 80+ Gold
  • Corsair H500P case

Or
  • i7 9700k
  • MSI Z390-A PRO LGA1151
  • EVGA GeForce RTX 2070 XC ULTRA GAMING
  • Samsung 970 EVO Plus Series 1TP

Let me know what you guys think, My budget is about 1500USD for the PC and I don't mind gaming on 1080P.

Thank you for your suggestion 😀

On the Intel side especially if you were going high refresh 1080p/1440p then the 9700K with a 2080 Super would be very hard to beat on pure FPS. This build includes the 9700K, RTX 2080 Super and a motherboard with a very good 10+2 phase VRM.

On the Ryzen side: Same applies on the 1TB Intel 660P NVMe SSD to be swapped out and you can save more by dropping to a 3600 and a more cost effective motherboard.
