Hello everyone,

I’m looking to building a new PC to replace my old PC with an i5 3rd Gen Intel CPU and GTX 1050. The following are the new parts that I’m looking to build:

  1. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600
  2. PSU: EVGA 600W BR
  3. RAM: G.Skill Aegis DDR4-3200MHz OC 16GB x 1
  4. GPU: Gigabyte Geforce RTX 2060 6GB OC
Now coming to the motherboard I’m looking into one with an X570 chipset just to avoid the hassle of having to get a loaner CPU to perform a BIOS update on a B450 and heard sometimes they are buggy with 3rd gen Ryzen CPUs.
I’ve put these three mobos in my list. I would love to have the USB-C option since I have a few C type storage devices but I can still get by without it. I’ve read in a review somewhere that the MSI runs a bit hotter compared to the other two, but it was just one review.

Which of these is the best and the issue faced with the respective mobos?

  1. https://www.amazon.com/MSI-X570-Gaming-Motherboard-Wi-Fi/dp/B07T2FWCYG/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_sims?ie=UTF8
  2. https://www.amazon.com/Gigabyte-X570-AORUS-802-11AC-Motherboard/dp/B07WL5MFXL/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_sims?ie=UTF8
  3. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SXF8GY3/ref=ox_sc_act_title_6?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1
Also is the included Wraith cooler with the Ryzen 5 enough when gaming or do I need to et another one? I don’t intend to overclock the CPU.
BTW I'm ordering all these parts from the US to my place since here the same parts are marked-up in price from 30 to 50%. That's why I'm a little worried since I won't be able to immediately ship it off without incurring some serious costs.

Thanks in advance

PSU: EVGA 600W BR ...Very poor quality , Don't buy!

Oops! I’ve already bought the PSU and CPU. I thought EVGA was a good brand. Wish I asked this question sooner. I’ve had used their GPU in the past and they were really good. Luckily this PSU has a 2 or 3 year warranty. pcpartpicker showed my build would consume around 318W so I picked a 600W so there is plenty of room without overloading the PSU. You have had any bad experiences?
