Not sure on the board and the 580. Hate AMD for making multiple 580's

The bad RX 580 is for China only, that card's legit.

Nice build. 

[Opencircuit74]

Just a quick question... do you need storage and a case or are you re-using it or something?

 

Board should be fine.

Everything else is being reused.

you'd have to hate nvidia too in that case; they've done similar bullshit in the past. are you just gaming or also streaming/editing/rendering?

I hate nvidia with a passion. I just needed to know which 580 is the proper one.

 

just games, the 580 has free sync and is near the same as a 1060.

the 2048SP 'RX 580' are china-only as stated earlier so you'll be fine on that front, but the ram you picked is quite overpriced. the 2700x isn't needed for games, a ryzen 2600 will do just as well.

That power supply seems weak for that system.

Chose the aegis because that's the only cheaper ram that states compatibility on MSI's website. You really don't need a heat spreader on DDR4 as this thing is most like not going to have an OC other than the normal boost clocks.

550w is enough for a vega 64 and ryzen 2600. Ram that isn't in the compatibility list will often work anyways, the list is just what they confirm as working with that mobo.
