hello_there_123

I did not recommend the $260 TN panel that I listed, I dispise panels like these. I appreciate your pointers on the PSU and cooler, but the other components I did not pick.
 
If you look at OP's PCPartPicker list, I blatantly copied it to save time, and to maintain some of OP's personal preferences. The point of the list was just to give OP an idea on what could be improved. I spent 5 minutes on this parts list as a mock-up, obviously it's not perfect. I described it as a quick mock-up in my post.

Way overkill for a chip that draw like 80W max in overclocking gaming... 
 
both the stock cooler and the DRP4 have thermal paste 
 
Only good option for b450 are MSI. B450-a pro, b450 gaming plus, b450 taomahwk is what you want. 
 
Refer to Aegis's tier list. https://imgur.com/a/sYmbnMr 
phison E12 ssd like sabrent rocket, corsair mp510 etc are supposed to be in tier 2.. 
rx 5700 
 
This PSU not great, it's worse than TXm in build quality according to Jonnyguru.. there is a bitfenix formula gold 550 for $70 on newegg, or a CX550 for $60. And there was a thermaltake GX1 (simliar quality to CX im guessing, not same plattform) for $45 600W few days earlier, as well as enermax platimax 500W for $50... 
Cmon, its almost 2020... and we are still recommending $260 TN 144hz 1080p panels when same resolution and refresh rate, better color accuracy and reproduction quality VA panels can be found for $170 (MSI Mag240VC optix)

cheaper than mx500,infact, and does better htan mx500 on all consumer important benches...

rx 480 usually around the same price 
 
Corsair cx450 

No, he's right, they really measured 471mV ripple according to them. You can see it on the screenshot of their scope.
They also call it "only" 471mV, and also say "these voltage fluxuations are far from dangerous and will not interfere with internal components". Hilarious!
 
Yet another funny thing is they didn't even read the results correctly. They said it has 471mV ripple, but according to their screenshot, that's only the amplitude. The peak to peak change (how the ripple is supposed to be measured) is 627mV on that screenshot.
 
Now figuring out how they got so high results, and if they even setup their equipment properly, is another mystery.

Yes, you have to screw it in an m.2 slot on the motherboard. 
 
Shit ones will use 2, otherwise most will use 4. Second question: no, NVMe PCIe lanes are completely separate from the GPU. 

This build would be perfectly adequate for Sony Vegas (now just Vegas Pro because Sony sold it out) since Vegas can use OpenCL extremely well for hardware acceleration purposes and it's code also is more friendly to AMD processors, how to use SMT and so on.
 
But if you're certain you want to go Premiere Pro then the story changes completely; first Premiere Pro is just terrible with OpenCL, Adobe never cared to it and only did a half baked implementation to appease AMD users.
 
There is no way around it, Premiere Pro is CUDA Acceleration you ought to aim a different GPU since the RX580 would become nearly useless.
 
About Intel, the thing about it is that Adobe also likes it better due to how it's coded, its actual editing tools are all 100% single threaded and even more it requires Intel's hyper low latency Ring Bus to sustain the snappy responsive feeling you'll be after.
 
When it comes down to rendering, exporting and other fully multi-threaded tasks you can enable iGPU hardware acceleration (QuickSync) will boost performance and make something like the i7 8700K match a TR1950X... amazing results.
 
So the very first thing you have to figure out is what program you're buying to use... if its Vegas or Premiere? that will dictate whether you should go AMD or Intel+nVidia for this build, then we can figure out the rest.

He thinks that 660p>MX500. He also thinks that SX6000 Pro>660p. You can follow the logic from there.

SX6000 pro>mx500 according to him. 

No there isn't. And usually the PCIe lanes that an NVMe drive takes up won't conflict with the GPU because the PCIe lanes dedicated to NVMe are completely separate and do not interfere with the GPU PCIe lanes. 
 

 
Phison E12 is a controller. 

G+ uses the model numbers GP-<wattage>. Probably that.
 

660p it is then

Hello there!
 
This is how the Spoiler Header functions nowadays, leading the need to add a title to each spoiler:
 

 
Proposition is to allow editing the header text in order to improve visual quality when applicable, eliminating the need for a written title for each spoiler.
 
Useful specially for Original Posts that may benefit from multiple spoilers, this need has rise from our current rework on the Tier Lists where we will be using Spoilers more extensively to allow having far more information in the OP while keeping it organized and pristine to the eyes.
 
For instance, the desired result would be:

 
I believe this feature could be very useful for our community.
 
Thanks!

Pure power 10/11 are way better than CXM. 
 
G3 has OPP and OTP set too high but the overall build quality is good. So it's subjective as to how much those two protections will affect your ranking of them.  B2 I'm not really sure. 
 
I do know that the G1+ is based off the raider II platform, like the pure power 10/11 and evga GQ. But the power_good signal on it is not working, the transient response time is mediocre at best, and there's no surge protection for voltages (although a surge protector would probably solve this).

Wattage thing. Not a Quality thing.

Sorry my bad. I meant the straight power, not pure. Typo ?

Are you suggesting right now, that the Pure Power 11 is better than both the TXm AND the CX, and similar quality to the RMx?? 
 
If that's the case then I will say that even the CX surpasses the Pure Power 11 in quality.

That can do, i guess

There are many, many sub-series of Thermaltake Smart, and dozens, dozens of very different PSUs that have the word "Smart" somewhere in the name. Some are totally budget, some are mid end, some are actually decent with very modern technology.
It is best to ignore the entry for "Thermaltake Smart" in this list, since this is just like grouping every "GeForce GTX" card in the same performance category.
 
This particular Thermaltake Smart uses the CWT GPS platform inside, which achieves good performance and modern technology that doesn't have problems with high end components. The same design is used in Deepcool ST, new DQ-M, Thermaltake Smart DPS G, and also Enermax Revolution X't II.
The performance is good, but the protections and noise were never tested in detail, and Thermaltake could have also skimped on the quality of the internal components.

Testing PSUs is not as simple as testing a graphics card where you can just run 3DMark and plot some graphs. @LukeSavenije is right, it's not practical for someone to spend ten's of thousands on the equipment required to test PSUs, as well as the PSUs themselves, just to make a "Tier List" for a forum. There's currently over 100 PSU models listed in the Tier List. To test each model individually would require spending thousands of dollars on units and hundreds of hours of testing, and that's assuming people even have the knowledge to be able to test & review PSUs properly.
Are you willing to invest your life savings buying testing equipment and PSUs to test as well as quit your job to work full time as a PSU reviewer just to make a basic list for a forum - and do all of that for free? There's a reason that enthusiast made lists like these are simply aggregates of information from professional reviews.

The problem I see isn't necessarily in how the list is made, the problem is how people on the forum overvalue this list.
I find it very disappointing the way people go around posting "CheCk ThE PsU TiEr LiST!" any time someone asks about PSUs, or worse; when arguing about which PSU is better and thinking the PSU tier list is a definitive answer. Heck, I've seen people ask for help deciding between two different PSUs only to be told to "Check the PSU tier list!", when the two PSU's they've asked about are in the same damn tier!
 
When someone asks for help on PSUs, instead of someone saying "check the PSU tier list" when they don't have an actual answer to provide, I would actually rather someone reply with something completely stupid and wrong, like saying "You should buy the EVGA N1 700W because higher wattage is better and it will be more efficient because PSUs are most efficient at 50% load"... At least then you can have a discussion and explain why what they said is incorrect and hopefully educate them, or if they're not prepared to listen then maybe at least someone else who happens to read the discussion can learn something from it.
 
PSU tier lists like this should really only be helpful to someone who doesn't have an understanding of or interest in PSUs and is presented with a few options at their local Best Buy or on Newegg and they just need to quickly know whether to buy the EVGA N1 700W or the Corsair CX550. They can check the list, see that the CX550 is ranked higher, they buy that and slap it in their rig and never think about it again. That's really about it. You could probably simplify the tier list in to two categories "Buy" and "Don't buy" and it will still serve the same purpose. If you're expecting anything more from the PSU Tier List you're probably expecting too much.
 
JonnyGuru is currently working for Corsair's PSU division. You wouldn't expect BMW's head of engineering to review a Toyota.

@Energycore Tier C, most likely. Though it would be near the top of that tier.
