It is bit more expensive.
CRYORIG is not available in my country.
Any alternative?

I added more storage, the 1TB HD for games etc and a much better SSD for the main drive and 250GB.

And better, faster Memory.


As far as coolers go what Country are you in?

I am in Czech Republic. My local shops do not have them at all.
I did not know how to add second storage on pcpartspicker. I was counting with that 1tb drive.
Your setup is like 300USD more expensive.
Is Ryzen 5 1600 bad option for gaming?

Intel is better for a gaming PC, but if you want to go with AMD it will work so it's up to you.

If you do go with AMD get fast ram, nothing slower than DDR4 3000.

 

[zeinerladislav]

OK, I understand.
In MB specs it is saying 3200(OC).
Does it mean that i will need to OverClock to make them work?
Is MB i selected good one for that setup?
In case that i will go with Ryzen setup, Should i pick ripjaws instead of hyperx?
That CPU cooler i wrote in first post, is it enough? Or should i look for better one?

I would go with a better CPU cooler.

As far as the ram speeds go on the Intel system you just enable XMP and it will run at full speed (3200 etc).

Not sure how the AMD motherboards work on that.

As Cryorig is not available for me, which cooler you would recommend for AMD?

Use the one it comes with, it's fine.

 

[zeinerladislav]

Ok, thank you for this advise.
That is what i needed to know, that it will work.
I will only get better RAM.

ok, i bulit it. Have question now. I am using that AMD Wraith Stealth cooler which was in package with Ryzen.
I ma using OCCT to measure all things.
While im just on internet, i have CPU temps around 40-42C. When i play Ghost Recon Wildlands, it is showing 52-54C.
Are these temps OR or should i look for better cooler?

Temps are fine.

One more questions i have.
I am using Fractal Design Define C. I have 2 120mm fans in front for getting fresh air into case, 2x 120mm ones on top to exhaust air out and one at back to also exhaust air. Is that good setup or should top ones do same thing as front ones?
