[SOLVED] What do you think? Should I go with this setup?

[Seth Willerton]

Hello all,

First time builder converting from xbox. I have never played on PC before however I have put in so much time researching and learning everything. I went from nothing and I feel as now I have a decent understanding of PC building. My budget is $1,500 Canadian but I kind of went overkill so im almost at $2,000. I havent bought anything yet but im waiting for the new intel GPU's to come out to hopefully lower prices and maybe swap my GPU around.

Games I hope to play are Arma 3 (heavily modded), Squads, Halo Infinite, Escape from Tarkov, Insurgency: Sandstorm - and I want to be able to play future titles in over 5 years and not have to worry.

Suggestions, confirmations, clarifications, and any other "ations" you guys come up with let me know any advice is welcomed

alternatively, you could also go for a Ryzen 7 3700X for the extra 8 threads, lower TDP and 20 bucks less, and a B550 or X570 board, everything else is fine though

(aside from maybe swapping out the RAM for a higher speed kit and the PSU for a 80+ gold rated one, but that's just me)

Power supply i understand the 80+Gold because i lige at home so wasted electricity
