    Well thank you for clearing that up. I thought the Ryzen 5 chips all had graphics.
     
    I will wait till the video card arrives.

    Aggressor got a reaction from MrBucket101 in PSU for Dual GTX 1080   
    I literally left my office and went to the store to make the change before the finalized the 1000W order. So it is set back to the 850W. And I broke down and ordered the 2nd gtx 1080 and some extra storage.
     
    I hope you're happy

    @Agressor motherboards don't draw power... They literally do nothing but supply power to other devices that are connected to them. At best, maybe a couple W due to inefficiencies.
     
    Here, I spec'd out your system, using 4.5GHz @ 1.29v (cause nearly every 5820k is stable at those values), 2 1080 overclocked to 1978/2705 (the clocks of that gigabyte card in your screenshot), 3 - 3.5" drives, and 12 system fans, b/c why not. 
     
    Stretch the wattage even more and add 10W more for overclocking your ram. You still don't get anywhere near the limits of your PSU.
     
    you are just fine

    1. use the BIOS to overclock, if you don't know how to then it may be a good idea to leave OCing for now  
    2. Voltage is usually manually set if you manually overclock a CPU. Of course some motherboards can auto OC but it usually leaves you with a 4Ghz OC sipping 1.32Volts which is a bit high (that my case with my x99-s and 5820k and auto OC where as with me manually OCing, I can get 4.3Ghz at 1.3volts so you know )
    3. Stressing a system is not enough to determine whether a system is stable or not, you've gotta use it normally and stress test it and if any crashes occur then dial the OC back or up the voltage  (while making sure temps are all guld)
    4. That PC store guy is probably talking about DDR3 RAM but he is correct, we're no long using DDR2 memory so even 1600mhz is good enough  (but 2133mhz is lowest for ddr4 so...meh?)

    1. For cpu, you overclock in the bios(but sometimes you can use software like intel extreme tuning, but just use the bios). MSI afterburner is for gpu's
     
    2. 1.3 is normally the max voltage you should give the chip, much higher and it will make it die much faster. You set the lowest voltage you can and still have a stable overclock
     
    3.If your system is stable, then it won't crash. If it crashes after a few days its not stable and lower the clock speed.
     
    4. Idk what the ram speed from the store is. You can oc it as much as your want(past 3333, but i suggest against it) RAM overclocking is normally a very small improvement(1% or less and can cause lots of stability issues).

    well yeah it's 140$ more expensive, but you're getting 2 more cores and extra pci-e lanes  (handy if you're running SLI (or planning on), since your SSD uses 4 lanes and your gpu uses 8 lanes, when you install a second GPU your SSD will become slower)
     
    and if you're ever going to do something that can benefit from the extra cores( DX12 games, content creation) you're going to see a huge boost in performance)

    Your CPU is unlocked, this means it is good to overclock but your CU cooler chosen (while amazing) just won't handle overclocking. Look at getting either an AIO liquid cooler (maybe even a custom loop at your budget).

    Custom loops do not have to be expensive, IE my custom loop (incl GPU)  was $100 for EVERYTHING by using car engine hosing and 12V fountain pump.

    For best price/performance I would wait until some proper benchmarks have been released on the RX 480 and maybe wait and see what the 490/490x has to offer.

    Your parts list looks good other than that

    Not all time you need to investigate how fast is write and read speeds, sometimes some SSD are optimized to write over read and viceversa. there's many different types of SSD. Here you can see diffenrent types of SSD:
    the build i put you it was the best of the best as far as i know, because you say
    so i build something under $3000 CAD.
     
    Keep reseaching. and you will find wat is going to you.

    About the SSD i was refering to the guy that linked the 950 pro which is fast but you're mostly not gonna notice it in daily usage, if you just want cheap go for a Samsung 850 EVO 500gb or something. it's more than enough speed wise and it has pretty nice $ per gb

    What about this? The SSD isn't as fast but it's half the price and you're barely gonna notice the difference in daily usage, changed the psu to an RM850x which can easily deal with 1080 SLI plus overclocks in the future

    I forgot mention about windows prices:
     
    I recommend buy the retail version. because this is the version thats not tied to anything and you can install in any PC without a problem.
    Link: https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B01019T6O0
    This is more safer than oem keys. it should always work.
     
    For OEM. is the version i call it "the one time use" because is tied to the motherboad and re use it is very difficult

    WARNING: i link you to a site that have different providers of cheap keys, if you buy from them make sure to but the protection from kinguin because sometimes DOES NOT WORK.

    Reson for changing the:
    CPU: Why you would put a i7 instead of i5 as you said. You never mention about video editing. So better i5. you will never use the hyperthreading. so it a waste buying a i7 CPU cooler. if you choose a K processor i bet you will overclock so i put the AIO liquid cooler Corsair H115I for a lowest temp.
    Added the best thermal paste on the market the Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut. no ones can beat this thermal paste. is the best of the best.
    added M.2 950 PRO since you want a "blazing fast gaming PC" for get 2GB/s of transfer data + a hybrid 2TB drive disk for storage
    Changed to EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB SC ACX 3.0 video card. EVGA is one of the best video card manufacturer on the Nvidia side.
    Changed the case for the Enthoo pro for better airflow and better temps, also it got more space for radiator/case fans.
    Changed the PSU for the EVGA SuperNOVA P2 650W 80+ Platinum. it's more safer and better unit, also got more efficiency.
    Keyboard: The corsair K70 Rapidfire use the new Cherry MX speed for 40% faster pressing than averange mechanical keyboard
    Mouse: The G502 is the best wired mouse on the maket it have the best sensor for a deadly accurate aiming in FPS. and have fast response times.
