You will eventually have to upgrade. If past data is anything to go by the 5800x will pull you through till the ps5 and xbox get replaced by a higher performance model (as in properly end of life so thing xbox series 2 or ps6).
Ram who knows 16gb is currently plenty and adding in more isn't exactly hard to do but since this is weird and whacky rgb ram you might want to load up now instead of the future when it is hard to find.
As I said at the start you will eventually have to upgrade and the first part to always go is the gpu in terms of need for replacement. Probably in 4-5 years at max you'll get a new one as most people do. That is if you constantly play the newest games but who knows what you'll be doing in 4-5 years.
Storage is often upgraded too in the future as more is needed so that is also a it might happen it might not situation and buying more now just because it can happen isn't a smart idea. The only thing I am fairly certain of is that hdds for AAA games will become a thing of the past and you'll start needing a ssd for them all.
Okay thank you this helped me understand the situation alot better haha! My last question, I really liked the frames on the video link I originally posted because most of those games are ones that I currently play and get nothing near those, how significantly do you imagine the frames would differ with these parts when compared to the setup that he had

Changed things around a bit.
More ssd storage on a drive plenty fast
Better psu
Lower cpu that is better than the consoles so no sweat for gaming for the entire generation of them
Far better case with some rgb as it seemed you like that
Lowered ram to 16 but if you want get more. Little point in getting white sticks as that will be hard to see anyway.
thank you so much man, I don't mean to be repetitive but do you think that if I don't mind spending a bit more I should just get a higher cpu and higher ram as you mentioned, that way even in the far future I would not have to upgrade anything.

Sure thing just give me a bit of time.
thank you, someone mentioned switching to 5800x because for just gaming nothing more is needed?

meh, i would stick to the 5800x if you're just gaming
5900x makes no sense, even in the long term
you'll probably upgrade it by the time games actually use that many cores, imo
okay I shall do this then thank you for the helpful info

What will this be used for? Why the set price on the 5900x?
As for your current parts list
The revolution d.f 850w is same price or lower for a higher quality psu the seasonic is totally fine but might as well get the best if it is an option
The h510 SUCKS. Well not really it can barely suck in any air and thus has terrible airflow. Do not get it if you want a cool system and get a mesh from (or in case of the o11 mesh side not obstructed intakes)
Board is good but not the best for the money you are spending cheaper boards are just as good if not better.
No need for a liquid cooler plenty of air coolers can easily handle a 5900x
If you want REALLY good rgb fans for not much money arctic got you covered nice rgb with fans that are as quiet as noctuas and perform like them.
Anything else is no comment because I don't know what you want to do with the system and thus will not make a revise parts list yet.
I mainly just game on it, I set the price at that because I included the cost of extra cables in it as well, price isn't necessarily an issue I just want parts I will not have to upgrade in the future, my main concern is the system getting too hot. Would you mind revising the list with a better case and any extra things I need. I got the liquid cooler because I really like how it has the screen that shows temp and gifs, so mainly for aesthetic purposes lol, but very helpful info if you could help that'd be awesome

1) 5900x? what do you do with your PC?
2) NZXT H510 isnt great for temperatures of components, but if you like the looks then it's fine i guess? you have some high wattage components so do reconsider
Sorry I thought 5900 would be best, I mainly just game on it, price isnt nessicarrly an issue I just want parts I will not have to upgrade in the future, my main concern is the system getting too hot.

Hey guys really just wondering if this is a good overall build or if anything can be swapped out when it comes to a better case so that there is proper airflow and I don't have to worry about anything overheating. Also wondering if there is a better motherboard I should go with, price is not an issue I just really want to maximize my 3080. I do want the case to be white and see a lot of good things when it comes to the Lian-Li 011 when it comes to airflow but I am not sure if I'd need to add more fans or what exactly I should do, the inspo for the build I made is basically a copy paste of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUFcQ37Z1wo&ab_channel=XtianCXtianC
The benchmarks seem insane so I figured I couldn't go wrong with this however some of the comments do worry me a bit. Any help would be appreciated as I am still pretty new when it comes to the actual build process.
Build Link: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/RTdTcT
Graphics card priced at 0 because i own already
Processor priced higher because I included the cost of extra cables in it.

Hey guys just needed some hopefully quick help, I've been trying to put together this build and was looking for a white case and saw some great things about these parts but at the bottom of the screen i am getting several error messages, any sugestions on what i shoulld do to fix it or what i should swap out. thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, I am pretty new to pc and was wondering what is more important or if both are pretty much equal. Right now these are the parts I was looking at, with my focus being on a really good mouse and a average keyboard. Let me know what you guys think.
Mouse Option 1: https://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Wireless-Gaming-Esports-Performance/dp/B07GCKQD77
Mouse Option 2 (I'd be buying this one from a friend for a much better price, this is just a reference): https://www.amazon.com/FinalMouse-Ultralight-Phantom/dp/B07F7SCHHH/ref=sr_1_4?crid=3EENFMHLF3KBU&keywords=finalmouse&qid=1556061265&s=electronics&sprefix=final%2Celectronics%2C197&sr=1-4
(Also: I am more than welcome to any mouse and keyboard recommendations/personal favorites, like i said earlier, I am new
)

here a build I put together for you. Good thing is going AMD route you can upgrade in the future to a new CPU without the need to upgrade your motherboard. also as you want to game and stream I would recommend AMD. Better at multitasking and everyday use.
Thank you so much for this list! I talked to one of the tech experts at Best Buy and he agreed on the AMD being better for multitasking so I will definitely go this route, my only question is, i wont need a cooling fan because it is already in these parts correct? and how many fps can i expect to be pushing? at least 144?

Higher resolution displays tend to get more expensive. However I would stick to your 1080p plan, live out your new system for as long as you can. You don't seem like you need a higher resolution display. Difference between 1080p and 1440 is fairly minimal anyways
sounds good, so i will go with that 1080 monitor and the build the other guy recommended! Thank you for everything

1440p is a harder resolution to spit out than 1080p is,
Refresh rate of a monitor is how many times the monitor refreshes/second, giving it that smoothness.
Dropping below the refresh rate in frames per second, you might see some funky stuff like tearing and such.
ok i think i get it, so the 1440 is the way to go, is it cheaper or more expensive, and is there a recomended model?
-
2 minutes ago, Slottr said:
Yeah it'll be very very good for 1080p 144hz.
I'd be using this for something like 1440 100hz or in and around there.
really the fact that its 100hz and not 144 doesnt affect it

Overclocking is pushing the speed of a component above the stock speeds by adjusting its clock and voltage
I can't imagine that you'd be anywhere under 144 fps at any time
ok sounds good, so that build he posted matched with a 144hz 1080p monitor should be fine? and what is the best specs of a monitor I can possibly run with that build? (most likely my last question lol) thank you so much!
-
1 minute ago, Slottr said:
For sure. I guess I oversaw that you probably wouldnt overclock (right?), and the 2070 would help. Though I personally don't feel it is worth the extra tax for it on 1080p. If you think you can use it though, by all means
overclock? and if you think this is the better build with more performance abilities than I shall choose it. BTW how many frames should i expect to be pushing on games like fortnite, gta r6 seige. (mainly fortnite)

you can't overclock this i7, and the board is cheaper, but the graphics card performs much better.
https://www.techspot.com/review/1799-geforce-gtx-1660-mega-benchmark/
would the cheaper motherboard affect amything?

Honestly, I kinda noticed that a little while ago, and wondered too
Though I figured the 8700k would do good for 144hz gaming and streaming, while passing a 1660ti on 1080p 144hz doesn't make too much sense to me? A 2070 would be more so of a waste of money on that resolution. Though it is up to OP, which is why I made the 2070 comment shortly after that.
would you agree then Sloter? that that build is the way to go for competitive, and streaming?

Here you go
And for windows, you can get it off ebay for significantly cheaper than from microsoft. If you're a post secondary student you'll probably be able to get it for free
wait, so its only like 33 dollars for a more powerful build? lol shouldnt i just get this one then? and yeah i am in college so ill see what I can do about windows. thank you.

No problem, it's literally the reason I sit on here lol
You wouldnt need to change anything theoretically. Granted, theres two things to take account for- one: is power supply. If you have add a power hungry card next to the processor in that list (8700k), you may need to upgrade that as well. If you want to feel safe, I can change the list for you to a decent 650w unit. The second thing is bottlenecking. Currently the 8700k is a GREAT chip for gaming, though tech changes over time so it depends how far down the line you upgrade and what has changed between now and then.
Your second question:
Yes there's tons. There's all of the beginners build guides done by LTT, Pauls Hardware and others. All consumer pc's are generally the same and carry the same principles over all.
Here's a few
You'll need to reference your manuals every once in a while for parts that are maybe a little bit more proprietary, like your cpu cooler might have a different mounting system than others, or motherboard connector placements may differ, etc.
thank so much this will be very helpful, and yes if you wouldn't mind making that 650w unit list for future reference i'd really appreciate it haha.

Yep, the current one is the 1660ti. It's a great card for 1080p
ok cool sorry for all the questions but these are the last two lol. 1. If i eventually get more money and want to upgrade the card I can do so just to get that 2070 and I wont have to change anything else around in the build right? And 2. any videos you recommend I check out when building this for the first time
-
1 minute ago, Slottr said:
Yeah, you'll be absolutely fine with this setup. You -could- get a 2070, but I really don't think it would be necessary.
thats the video card right?

Something like this should do, 1400 is pretty overkill for a 1080p gaming machine
thank you so much man, and this PC build will allow me to run those super congested endgames in competitive Fortnight no problem? And be able to stream them? Thank you though so much I appreciate it
