  1. Oh! I thought they were comparably similar, the 5700xt is just a little more, but if its faster, then the extra $10 or so wont matter.
  2. Thanks for the feedback guys, I took your advice into consideration and this is a revised build I came up with. Better CPU and MUCH better GPU like ya'll said, I took out those Arctic fans "Besides the reviews on their performance, I totally loved the sleek design and color" and decided to get some cheap Uphere fans that have really good reviews instead "Because I'm a Color coordination nit picking freak :P" Did yall say the MSI B450 pro-Max Mobo already come with the updated Bios? Or would I have to flash it? I kept the 600W PSU because at some point in the future I know I'll wanna upgrade the CPU to something better. Or should I get something bigger than that? the wattage calculator says rn I'm sitting at about 354W Anyways, again thank you very much for your feedback! I appreciate your time.

  3. Hello world! I've been a gamer as long as I can remember, but this is the first time I'll have ever built a new PC from parts that I've picked. I just wanted to throw out my build and get some opinions on it.

I'm gonna use it mostly for gaming and hopefully have everything at Ultra Graphics settings, but I also want to use it to stream on twitch, do Video/picture editing, I wanna get into Graphic design as well. I plan to at some point upgrade my CPU to a Ryzen 2700x or maybe better Any thoughts on what kind of processor I want to upgrade it with? I also want to upgrade the graphics card in this, maybe 6 months down the line. Anyways, thanks for checking out my thread!
