  1. Thank you both for the great insights!
  2. 1. Budget & Location I'm Planning a US $1200 build, but I'm fine going a little over 2. Aim I want the best gaming experience I can get for $1200, also I'm highly interested in RTX 3. Monitors I currently have three 1680x1050 60Hz monitors. I would like to upgrade them in the future to an unspecified higher resolution(probably not 4k because it's too expensive) and 144Hz (I'm not including this cost in the $1200) 4. Peripherals I plan on getting VR in the future (not included in the $1200) 5. Why are you upgrading? My current rig runs on a GTX 750 TI and isn't bad, but doesn't have the power I'm looking for I ended up changing a lot of my parts to be based off the Game Now build in The Perfect DIY Gaming PC - Early 2020 Buyer's Guide. PCPartPicker Part List: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/xW9PK4 CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor ($189.99 @ Amazon) CPU Cooler: Noctua NH-U12S SE-AM4 CPU Cooler ($59.95 @ Amazon) Motherboard: MSI B450 Gaming Plus MAX ATX AM4 Motherboard ($104.99 @ B&H) Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 Memory ($74.98 @ Amazon) Storage: Corsair MP510 960 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive ($154.99 @ Corsair) Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2070 SUPER 8 GB Video Card ($499.99 @ Best Buy) Power Supply: Corsair CX (2017) 550 W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply ($59.99 @ Corsair) Custom: IC Graphite Thermal Pad (30 X30 mm) ($9.97 @ Amazon) Total: $1154.85 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2020-01-19 16:11 EST-0500 Questions: How can I figure out if all the parts are compatible with each other, and won't create bottlenecks? Is it worth it to get a after market card, or should I stick with NVIDIA one? According to this video, I'd only get a few more fps on average while gaming. (The video didn't include thermals or anything) How do I decide which one to get as I couldn't find benchmarks for all of them? Are their any problems that more experienced eyes can see? Do you have any suggestions on cases? A black and red theme would be preferable, but not necessary Unless there is a reason to get a more expensive one I would prefer a cheaper one I'm neutral to RGB Are there better / equivalent parts that are cheaper? Are there significantly better parts for a little extra? Is there anything I need to add to this post? Did I post this in the correct place?
