[SOLVED] Thoughts on build?

[Brontyde]

I'm curious about a potential build, I'm not a savant at building or making builds for pcs, and wanted to get some thoughts/opinions from everyone. First off, the CPU some people may say to go 3600, I only did 3700X because I tend to hold onto my parts for long periods until they die typically. Next, I tried doing the CPU cooler as a Coolermaster EVO 212, but it brought up compatibility issues with PCPartPicker. Overall though, how does this build look? What changes would you make? Any help is greatly appreciated.

You dont really need a cooler, the included one is fine at stock speeds. I would either save the money or spend alittle more on a better one

You can save some money if you want and get a B450 motherboard, PCIe4 is not really needed by 99% of home users

Get 3200mhz or faster RAM

Save money or spend more on I'm assuming a cooler? Any recommendations as people tend to lean toward the EVO 212 from most of my research.

As for the motherboard, using any of the B450s I get several more compatibility issues in regards to motherboard slots, physical dimensions, and bios updates prior to using Matisse chips. Maybe I'm putting too much emphasis on the compatibility issues brought up by PCPartPicker.

The only issue I have with your build is the CPU cooler. Its unnecessary as far as I'm concerned unless you are overclocking. Even so, that still depends on how well your tower can keep the air flowing to start with and on the room temperature. The quality of the tower itself is just as important as anything else. And if PCI-E 4.0 is the wave of the future, then I'd get it. I don't settle for less than I can afford, or settle for what is claimed to be "enough" right now.

That motherboard is a very poor x570.

You could get a better x570 or even go b450 to spend your money better.

This is the one I have. Its served me well so far.

Ahh, I understand, looks like I'm on the right path. I'll take what advice you and everyone else gave me and make changes. Saving money is always nice, leaves room for improvements, i.e. cpu cooler if needed, cheaper/more efficient mobo.

Yeah, if the motherboard you list isn't up to task as others stated, then my suggestion is to buy the motherboard I linked in my previous post. Its got PCIE 4.0 slots and its working great for me so far.

I can definitely see that working, the only issue is cost somewhat. The cost for that mobo is $350-390, which may be a bit much. I can see though that the mobo is where I'm struggling in the build at the moment, as the one I listed seems to have issues with ram location and physical dimensions given if I get a CPU cooler. B450s and earlier seem to have issues with bios/the cpu according the PCPartPicker, so if I have to reduce from 3700x to say 3600 and get a different mobo, given that more than one person has pointed out the mobo being something to potentially change, so I might have to go that route.
