++ ALSO POSTED TO "COMPONENTS", NOT SURE WHICH IS THE RIGHT SECTION++
Hello!
It's been a very long time since I posted in here and long story short, I'm doing a new build and would love to hear some laidback insights from you more "enlightened" people. The last build I did was back during the GTX 6-series so it's been some time I'd say... : )
PURPOSE FOR THE RIG: Mainly 1080p Gaming with a 144hz monitor.
+Not going for heavy OC or anything. Maybe something minimal in the future.
+Not going with the X570 since the very competent B450's are 50-60% cheaper.
(+ AMD guaranteed "equal" performance for the 3rd gen Ryzens across B450/X470/X570)
(CASE: Not 100% sure yet)
(CPU COOLER: AMD Wraith Spire)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 3.8Ghz (Waited for this to launch replacing my initial choice of the 2600x)
GPU: Sapphire RX Vega 56 Pulse 8GB
RAM: Kingston 16GB (2x8) HyperX Fury DDR4 3200mhz
MOBO: Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro (ATX)
SSD: 240/480GB Kingston A400
PSU: Seasonic FOCUS+ Gold 650w
NOTE: I'm very well aware of the XT's & RTX super's, but a 2060 super is going to be 200€ more expensive than the Vega, so.... It's a no from me like Simon Cowell would say.
PRICE:The rig would be clearly below 1000€ and in my opinion gives a stellar performance for the price, no?
So, what do you think : )?
