OK, thanks for the advice!

Seasonic FOCUS SGX 80+ Gold 500w

Ryzen 5 3600

I was wondering if a 500w PSU from seasonic (SFX) is strong enough to hold the load of a 3600 and a 3060 ti.

Nothing, I'm just wondering if they are other options that have better airflow and are cheaper.

So recently I though of building a new computer for gaming. I've already chose my mobo, CPU and GPU. The only thing that I'm missing is a case. I've originaly settle for the Pure Base 500DX for be Quiet! but now I've watched some Gamers Nexus videos and I'm reconsidering... Do you have any suggestion for a case that'll fit under 150$ CAN, and already have included fans?

So I should go 3600?

I will most likely play multiplayer fps games like warzone or apex and play sometimes single player games.

Hey, I was looking into building another PC and though on using a Ryzen 5 3600 with a 3070. Is it a good match? After all, I though of going instead with the Ryzen 7 3700x because it has more cores and maybe it offers more performance right off the bat, but the price is also higher. I'm only going to game and do some work for school. Is it worth going with the 3700x?

How bad are the fps? Is your CPU at high usage when you game? Are the games running smoothly or laggy? Or, it could be a driver issue.

Thank you very much

Budget: 1000$ CAN Hi, my friend recently asked me to build a iTX pc. He wants to use it for music production, gaming and editing. I need help to find the right CPU and GPU for this price point. I was wondering about the 3700x and the 1660. Do you think it is enough. Can you make any suggestion?

you could upgrade to a ryzen 5000 series processor

Did you tried installing newest drivers??? I am as sceptical as you but it could also be a bad game optimisation. Do you think you are getting worse game performance when your GPU is at 40-50% utilisation?

First of all, you say that you are getting 130-165 fps in cold war, wich is perfectly fine. Does the game run correctly, because for me it could be a PSU issue. The resolution also affects your performance, a 2600 with a 2070 super would be more effective at 1440p as the game become more CPU bound. It could be that your CPU isn't strong enough for your graphics card, but the fact that your CPU is at 50-55 is leaving me sceptical. The least I could say, if you think your CPU is the bottleneck, maybe you'll have to upgrade.
