Image result for gaming cpuamd ryzen 3 1300X

Ryzen, yes. Quad core, no. Ryzen 5 2600 is value king right now, and 3000 series is soon to arrive, driving prices even lower.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

I like water coolers better than normal coolers 

If you mean AIO then, as a previous AIO owner I would recommend air.


Air coolers have come a long way and either perform as good as or better than single fan AIOs. I would consider a 240mm AIO but a top end air cooler may be better value for money. 

 

I lost my last rig to an AIO leak, the AIO was 8 years old however so that was my bad for not changing it after 5-6 years. I would have been better switching to a modern air cooler but I didnt. Lesson learnt there!

 

Back on topic, for a 1070 I would recommend an i5 8600.

i5 8600 - RX 6600 - Fractal Nano S - 1080p 144Hz
