ryzen build idea

[Soirehk]

Hello, I'm building a gaming PC with AMD Ryzen, was wondering what y'all think. Based on Newegg prices, I haven't ordered yet because I still might make some changes.

Case-: Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced - High Air Flow Full Tower Computer Case with USB 3.0 and All-Black Interior $155


CPU-: AMD RYZEN 7 1700X 8-Core 3.4 GHz (3.8 GHz Turbo) Socket AM4 95W YD170XBCAEWOF Desktop Processor. $400

Mobo:- MSI X370 GAMING PRO CARBON AM4 AMD X370 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 HDMI ATX AMD Motherboard $180

DDR4 Ram-: G.SKILL TridentZ RGB Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C16D-16GTZR $150

CPU cooling-: CRYORIG H7 Tower Cooler For AMD/Intel CPU

GPU-: ZOTAC GeForce GTX 1070 Mini, ZT-P10700G-10M, 8GB GDDR5

Os-: Windows 10

4tb hard-drive $200

Total is around $1670 (prices are rounded up)

I was eye balling the ASUS ROG Crosshair VI Hero AM4 AMD X370 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.1 USB 3.0 ATX Motherboards - AMD motherboard as well for $255

What do y'all think.

go for it honestly AMD is only going to get better with the next few mb bios updates to resolve issues i was an intel fan but be going AMD in 6 months once the 2nd gen processors are released & teething problems ironed out being a new socket processor. Go with this as AMD has been prety open about bugs & issues so i recomend to go with it

Change from a GTX 1070 mini to a proper sized cooler if you can. They have better temps and typically higher factory overclocks. I've heard a few complaints about from single fan GTX 1070s being quite warm.

Unless you don't want to overclock the 1700x, otherwise, invest in a big twin air tower cooler or 240/280mm AIO liquid. The H7 will not be enough for 3.9-4.1Ghz OC with Ryzen.

Preferably, you'd want the TridentZ 3200 CL15 kit not the CL16 kit, but you can try your luck to see if you'll be able to get it to 2933. And I've seen report of a bug with the Gskill TridentZ RGB and their software that would kill one module of the kit on Ryzen builder thread, while the bug may not be exclusive to Ryzen platform, I'd withhold from recommending the TridentZ RGB for using with Ryzen until more info on said bug is known.
