AMD 5 3600 Build

chap6595

So, I already to have a NZXT S340 Case....I like it and a 500W power supply...my MB / CPU failed...so Updating

Looking at going the following:

CPU: AMD5 3600

MB: Something with onboard WIFI

Cooling - I am seriously looking at a NH-D14 or a NZXT Kraken X62 Rev 2.

RAM: Was looking at 2* 16GB  3600.

 

 

Looking for support with the Motherboard help...not after something that is super high end but with some M.2 Support.

Any budget?  Overclocking capability?  for the Motherboard?  

 

What GPU are you going to use because the Ryzen 5 3600 does not have integrated graphics

Oh yeah good point..I have a new Graphics Card..so that's fine. I was hoping to keep it under 1200's AUD for CPU, MB, RAM.

 

In regards to MB...just future M.2 Slot. Not overcooking...

If you want a Motherboard that also contains Wifi - you can get this one https://www.pccasegear.com/products/43278/msi-b450-gaming-pro-carbon-ac-motherboard

 

It is listed on the Motherboard Tier Thread on this forums as well ->

Thanks...That looks amazing!

It should be more than adequate. The X63 was honestly too expensive imo for this kind of a build, and an NH-D15 wouldn't have enough clearance to fit in your case, at least on paper.

You're welcome!

I am no guru when it comes to Motherboards but another option is the MSI B450 Gaming Pro with Wifi -> https://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/t797YJ/msi-b450-gaming-pro-carbon-ac-atx-am4-motherboard-b450-gaming-pro-carbon-ac

I think it'd be better to go for the B450 Gaming Pro Carbon AC, as @PyroTheWise mentioned above, as it will be slightly less expensive and would free up a PCI-E slot.

I just thought that since the difference in price between this and a good X570 board with integrated Wi-Fi wasn't that big, and the latter would've offered even better upgradability for the future, but if you want to build this system as quick as possible then by all means the choice is yours.

Any motherboard you do go with, be sure to check the motherboard compatibility with the beQuiet -> https://www.bequiet.com/en/motherboardcheck

 

This is mainly to make sure you won't run into any clearance issues with RAM sticks.  The Dark Rock is a great air cooling system.
