Building tips

Cotix · March 3, 2019

Hi. I'm planning to build myself a gaming PC. This is my first time building any pc by myself and i was wondering are there any useful tips from you experienced builders that might help me? I have been watching various pc build vids by both Linus and austin, so i have theoretical knowledge what to do. Currently im at process of getting all the components for the build.

Here are the all components for the build:

Ryzen 5 1600x
Asus b450m-k
2x 4 gb of g skill v series 2400mhz
500 w be quiet! Pure power 11 80+gold
Arctic freezer one 33 esports
Crucial bx500, 480gb
Coolermaster IC essential e1
Sapphire pulse rx 570 4gb

I have been paying alot of attention of compatibility, and i do have limited budget hence specific hardware.

also few questions: I'm getting 75hz screen, do I need to get dp cable or regular HDMI will be able to push 1080 75?

Would i be able to chain 4x 120 mm fans to single chassis fan header, since it appears there's only one header for the chassis fans? I ordered 3 splitters from aliexpress, dunno if it would work.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
