Ryzen + RX580 8GB for 144hz Gaming, Final Thoughts before purchasing

[TadMonty]

What is your intended use for this build? The more details the better.

144hz Gaming, high-Ultra settings, 60fps+, single monitor.

Mainly future-proofing for about 3-4 years.

Potential Streaming of 720 quality, but thats iffy but I do think the Ryzen5 1600 is enough

If gaming, what kind of performance are you looking for? (Screen resolution, framerate, game settings)

Same as above, main games are PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds and LoL. Will be getting Destiny 2 and some various FPS games in the future I am sure.

What is your budget (ballpark is okay)?

$800-900, less is better. Stuck between 580, 8GB and 1070

Provide any additional details you wish below.

I feel that my build is solid for what I want, minus the GPU. 580 8GB is a solid unit I am just unsure if I should spend the extra $100 for a 1070 or not.

Is the ram + mobo + cpu all good, no issues I am missing?

I will be purchasing in the coming weeks, just waiting for the Vega drop to see if prices for 580 8GB fall a little. Will be watching for deals over the next 3-4 weeks.

Thanks all!

for 144hz gaming a gtx 1070 will do much better than the 580, i'd get that instead if possible.

Even 1070 can't stick to 144 fps with ultra/high details in some games, RX580 nowhere near.

i would actually wait for Vega and get that instead  to see if any midrange vega units come out

Removed formating for night theme users and make it cleaner

 

Go for @herman mcpootis's build. OC the RAM and you're good to go.
