[SOLVED] New pc build

Solution
I didn't see the 2700X available on Amazon so went with 3600 & aftermarket cooler. Disregard the error message, the 3600 will work with the motherboard. Speaking of which, the motherboard has wifi & bluetoooth.

It's ok, for the SSD you can get a 1TB NVMe M.2 SSD for cheaper which will also be faster. The PSU would work but you may want to get a better quality 550W (plenty) instead. The stock cooler for the CPU is quite good and is RGB, going to the CM EVO Black 212 might be more of a sidegrade then upgrade.

What is your total budget?

Are you buying this through a service or building it yourself?

I am buying this through amazon and gonna build it myself I dont have a set budget but the cheaper the better. I am not really a pc builder currently my pc is pretty old except the graphics card which I got under a year ago a GTX 1060 6GB https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-N...x+1060+6gb&qid=1579623401&s=computers&sr=1-20

I just want a pc upgrade and was building around the graphics card if you have any better builds please past them. thanks :)
 
get the 3600 of the 2700x instead and you realize that is a micro ATX board and an ATX mid-tower case you can get a bigger, board if you choose too. also for the money, the 5700xt will probably give you the best bang for your buck as the 1060 is much slower. this is for gaming correct?

If you can get the 2700X then do that instead as it performs pretty close to the 3600 but has additional cores/threads which are good for multitasking.
