[Elysi]

Hi, im planning to build a pc and im wondering if anyone who built with the Nzxt h500i Has any Opinions on it, im going to be building a ryzen 5 2600x, i already have 32gb corsair vengeance 300 Mhz and a gtx 1070 8Gb and a i7-7700 (non K version) with a 1tb toshiba Hdd and SanDisk 128gb SSd i have not chose what motherboard to build with so if you have any recommendations on that. This will be my first pc build because my Current pc is prebuilt. (Sadly) i has been a good pc for around a year and half now but i want to step up my Editing and have a good gaming rig. i have 2 monitors 1 Acer Gn246hl 24' 1920x1080, and a random 2nd monitor 1280x1024 720p with Logitech Keyboard and Deathadder mouse with a blue snowball mic and razer Kraken v2 headset i am new to building pc so if i messed up or missed anything please dont curisfy me my budget is around 1000$ CAD - 754$ USD

Why are you going with a 2600x? Assuming you can take the 7700 and reuse it the 2600x isn't much of an upgrade, really only 12% according to UserBenchmark (https://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i7-7700-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-2600X/3887vs3956)

I would wait for the Ryzen 3000 series to be released before upgrading.

That is only 12% for effective speed if you look at all the other categorys, the % goes as high as 44%
