someone did their homework

 

The build currently looks pretty good although I would recommend dropping the psu down to a 650w and getting a 500g ssd and 1tb hdd if you want to save a bit of money

[PopsicleHustler]

Why go with 8th gen chip on Z390?

Do you really need to overpay for RBG RAM?

PSU is an overkill. 650W is enough.

1TB SSD? Wouldn't it be cheaper and better to get 500GB SSD+1TB HDD?

 

My point - Get normal RAM, get 650W PSU, get cheaper storage and spend more on a CPU. I would even go with Z370 and 8700k to get hyperthreaded CPU, or you can get 9900k if you go cash to burn.

Go with a Gigabyte board or something not Asus for Z390. Most of the Asus lineup is poor.

 

Swap the 8600K to the 9600K depending on the price difference.

I’d drop the PSU down a little and swap out the SSD for a higher quality one
