looks good but I would get a 5700xt rather than the 2070 super. Also if you are not in a rush I would wait for the next gen stuff to release 

[spartaman64]

but why do you have a wraith cooler for 100+ dollars also

well i do plan on using RTX in some games, and i figured that this is the best card for my budget, plus i only have a budget of $1500 usd, i dont know that the next gen stuff is going to cost more, feel free to make any adjustments

well i couldn't find any good black noctua cpu coolers that i can buy right know, and i dont want to go AIO, so why not a amd cooler on an amd cpu?

you are buying a cooler probably worse than a 212 evo for 119 dollars 

[tank234]

alright understandable, you can save some money by using the cooler included with the cpu and getting a different ssd https://pcpartpicker.com/product/pxKcCJ/crucial-p1-1tb-m2-2280-solid-state-drive-ct1000p1ssd8

If you arent overclocking, the included cooler is good enough. Or you can get a cheaper cooler like the hyper 212 if you want it to be cooler or quieter. Also, there is really no need to buy thermal paste as it is pre applied to most coolers.

That cooler is included with cpu's it's worse on the level of 20$ coolers. Not much better than the stock cooler your cpu comes with.

I wouldn't. I believe it comes with a pretty decent paste and even if you bought the best thermal paste on the market, you would only be seeing a couple of degrees of difference.

This is a much better build.

1. no need for the amd cooler. This hyper 212 is better and like 70$ cheaper. Also good thermal paste comes with the cooler.

2. This case comes with an extra fan so no need for all the extra ones.

3. This is a ATX mobo which is still very good but will fill up the case

4. This is a psu with more wattage and a bit cheaper. it is still B+ on the tier list.

With all the money saved, you can go for a much better gpu. The r5 3600 can still keep up.

I would wait for next gen hardware tho, so you could swap out the cpu and gpu for one of the new ones (coming out in the next couple of months)

Sure but I would still just wait for next gen stuff. It's a month out from launching and worst case you get a 2070 cheaper and may be able to even get a 2080 for the price.

thx! tho, im wondering if i sould stick with the 2070 super, and not go for the 2080 super. besides, if i upgrade to a 3080TI from a 2070 super, wouldn't it fell like a better experience instead of going 2080 super then 3080TI?

Just wait? The 3080ti is launching is like 30 days? If you already know you want that card why are you throwing away money like that? Also why even bother upgrading if you aren't even sure you'd notice a big difference?

You could just wait for the new hardware. Save a lot of money
