  1. So unfortunately, the website I'll be ordering from doesn't have any 3000Mhz G.Skill RAM, but they do have 3200MHz, is that ok? It's not cheaper, but if you insist on Corsair being not so good, then I'll go for it. Is G.SKILL 16 GB KIT DDR4 3200 MHz CL16 Trident Z RGB Okay? (I can squeeze a few bucks for the RGB version). 500GB is enough for me but I can just add the SSD from my current PC. I can go with the EVO version which is cheaper (no idea what's the difference between the PRO and EVO versions). Ok I'll get a 650W PSU. Which one should I get out of these? Seasonic Focus Plus 650 Gold, EVGA 650 GQ, EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G+ or Corsair TX650M? You convinved me to go with Meshify C, but now I really don't know how to do the cooling system. 1x 120x120mm Noctua fan for the back, put the radiator on top and then how many fans should I get for the front?
  2. Wouldn't BIOS update help with that? I guess I could go for the EVO version.
  3. Hi, it's been almost 5 years since I bought my first gaming PC and I've decided it's time to get a new one. 50% of my day consists of watching youtube + twitch and the other half is working in Photoshop. I tend to boot up Battlefield 1 once every 2 months and this new build would be for occasional Battlefield V and maybe some other AAA games in the future. I'll be playing on a 1080p 60Hz monitor and maybe update to 1440p in the future PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant Type Item Price CPU Intel - Core i5-9600K 3.7 GHz 6-Core Processor $259.99 @ Walmart CPU Cooler NZXT - Kraken X52 Liquid CPU Cooler $149.30 @ OutletPC Motherboard Asus - PRIME Z370-A II ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $168.89 @ B&H Memory Corsair - Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-2666 Memory $98.99 @ Newegg Storage Samsung - 970 Pro 512 GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive $159.99 @ Amazon Video Card EVGA - GeForce RTX 2070 8 GB Black Video Card $489.99 @ Amazon Case NZXT - H500i (White) ATX Mid Tower Case $99.99 @ Amazon Power Supply Corsair - RMx (2018) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply $112.98 @ Newegg Case Fan Noctua - NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 PWM 71.69 CFM 120mm Fan $25.35 @ Amazon Case Fan Noctua - NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 PWM 71.69 CFM 120mm Fan $25.35 @ Amazon Case Fan Noctua - NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 PWM 71.69 CFM 120mm Fan $25.35 @ Amazon Case Fan Noctua - NF-F12 industrialPPC-2000 PWM 71.69 CFM 120mm Fan $25.35 @ Amazon Prices include shipping, taxes, rebates, and discounts Total $1641.52 Generated by PCPartPicker 2019-03-19 12:41 EDT-0400 The price should be somewhere around as displayed above. I will now explain some of my decisions, what I don't want to change and some questions. Oh and btw, this build would now cost me 1700€, since I'm in Europe. I want to keep the case, but if there's something similar in the same price range, with similar looks and better air flow, I'm all ears. I also want to keep the CPU cooler and the fans. I plan on sticking 2 of these Noctua fans on the radiator instead of the default NZXT ones and the other 2 for the case. I don't really need more storage and I could always just plug in the SSD from my current PC. I chose 2 memory sticks instead of 4 because the NZXT cooler blocks the first slot, but I can deal with that. I chose RTX 2070 instead of 2060 to be "future-proof" I guess. Now these are the questions I have: Will my i5 CPU bottleneck the GPU? Should I go for 650W PSU instead of the 750 one? I know this case has a bad air flow, but is it that bad? Since I'll put the radiator on the front of the case, I'm left with just 2 fans in the case, is that enough? Should I go for a case with 5 fan slots? That would be all I guess, I'm looking forward to some more professional help from you guys, thanks a lot.
