Need Advice [following upgrade]

Go to solution Solved by Fasauceome,

Is this for a gaming focused PC?

Hello, I'm upgrading my CPU to a Ryzen 7 3800x but I am using a MSI RX 590 8gb graphics card. I think it's safe to say I need a graphics card upgrade but I dont know what would be best matched for that cpu, if anyone knows or has suggestions it would be much appreciated!聽

Thanks in advance 馃憤馃徎

Is this for a gaming focused PC?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black聽(with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux聽- Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?聽ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained,聽group reg is bad

light streaming would be good with the RTX series. You could get as high as you want like what MartinKweh said.

You could save money with a Ryzen 5 3600 and put the saved money into the GPU.
