What do you think about this AMD build

[jorra]

Hello =)

I live in China and it is time for a new pc.

It is for 1080p gaming, BF V ready on high graphics.
Does this build look good for the price?

Cpu: Ryzen 5 2600X = $223
Gpu: Sapphire RX580 8G Ultra Platinum OC = $306
Mobo: Gigabyte X470 Aorus Ultra Gaming = $146
Ram: Crucial 2x8GB DDR4 2666 = $157
Storage: ADATA XPG M.2 500GB NVME SSD = $131
Psu: Super Flower 550W 80 plus GOLD = $58

Total = $1021

I read that the ryzen 5 2600x has a nice stock cpu cooler so I will just use that. Until I need to overclock my cpu & gpu I will get better cooling.

Thanks for any suggestions or comments!

Would go with a cheaper B450 Motherboard and get 2x8GB 3000mhz Ram

Nice build. If you plan to overclock stick with the x470 for better power delivery. Definitely get a kit of 3200mhz memory as it makes a difference with AMD's infinity fabric and performance. As for the graphics card, what resolution will your monitor be and at what refresh rate?

My resolution will be 1920×1080 with a refresh rate of 60Hz it is a normal 34inc AOC monitor. Is that extra 600mhz with the ram really a noticeable difference?

When I researched my first gen ryzen build, it did. There's plenty of YouTube videos out there if you search "Ryzen Memory Speed"

With the dedicated GPU you won't notice. No

I agree after watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dx2NTo1vo84
2-5 fps more is not worth the money for higher mhz and low cla ram kits

The point of the faster ram is for better overclocking of the cpu. That guys video was just testing ram speed. https://youtu.be/RZRjoeyz4Z0
You're probably fine either way. Just the 3200 is basically the same price.

If you're just looking to get 60fps to match your monitor's refresh rate, knock the motherboard down to a B450 chipset, Ryzen 2600 and the 2666mhz memory.
If you want to overclock and eventually plan to get a better monitor, go with the Ryzen 2600x, x470 chipset and the 3200mhz memory. It's all about choosing correctly balanced components.

Thanks a lot for your reply. I will get at least 3200mhz ram!

You also just convinced me to get a new monitor I am searching for 144hz FreeSync monitors right now =)
Do you know if my computer will be able to handel 144hz in Battlefeild V or PUBG?

If you're looking for high 144hz+ refresh rate, you'll have to go intel for processing and nvidia for a graphics card.

Also, for that money I would rather buy a "older" Ryzen 7 X1700 and a cheap X370 Pro4 and get way more performance for about the same price.
