So I'm planning to build a mid range PC for about 650-700 Euros. I live in Austria, so prices are a little bit higher than in US.. Planning to use PC for mostly 1080p 144Hz gaming + little bit of student machine learning (second part is not that crucial :))

So I picked this components:

Ryzen 5 2600 161

Gigabyte gtx 1660 242

MSI b450 gaming pro carbon ???141

be quiet! System Power 9 600 Watt 60

G.Skill Aegis 8 GB Ram 43

Arctic Freezer 33 eSports One 27€ (maybe gonna buy it month later)

Aerocool cyclon case 40

 

All prices are from computeruniverse.com and amazon.de

Planning to OC gtx 1660 and a liitle bit of OC of ryzen. And the idea was to buy all parts to get me running now and then I can get another stick of RAM and some fans into my case.

There are some questions: Do I need a really high-end PSU for my motherboard, cause it has 8 + 4 CPU connectors.. And maybe is this motherboard a little bit overkill for my system? I thought about MSI b450 Tomahawk, but the problem with that motherboard is that it doesnt have 3pin RGB header, so I won't be able to add some RGB fans later;( So wanted to read some recommendations from you and to decide with better PSU maybe and better overall build.

Btw, sorry for my English..

Thanks, didnt know that. Is it really nice or stock cooler will be enough for ryzen tp to 4.1 GHz?

 

And what motherboard is better: msi tomahawk or gigabyte b450 aorus pro?

I would recommend the Pure Power 10 or 11 instead of the System Power 9. All up your system is probably going to use less than 250W under load, so the 400W or 500W models would do, no need for 600W.
2x8GB 3000MHz memory would be a lot better. Ryzen loses a lot of performance with single channel memory. May as well just buy it in a 2x8GB kit as it usually ends up cheaper than buying two lots of 1x8GB.

Are those much better? Cause Pure Power 10 400W costs the same as System Power 9. And I'm planning overclocking 1660, cause reviews say that it is possible to reach performance of 1660ti.. 

 

And 2 sticks of 8 gb are just 4 euros cheaper than 2 times 8 Gb...

Go with the upgrade for the ram later on. The mobo is a little overkill, but that's all I can suggest.

Home Base : Ryzen 5 2400G - ASROCK HDV R4.0 B450M -  Corsair Vengance Pro RGB 2x8GB @3200Mhz - Sapphire Pulse RX 5700XT - WB Black (2018) 500GB NVME SSD - 250GB WD (P.O.S.) HDD - 250GB LITEONIT SSD - Cougar MX330 ATX Tower - EVGA SuperNOVA 750 GQ 750W Gold- Razer Deathaddder Elite - Corsair K55 RGB Keyboard

about the same, whichever is cheaper/prefered

Not a great case for overclocking. Case has almost no airflow, so your CPU and GPU will get warm even without any over clocks as they show in the review video (keep in mind they also added 2 fans to the front and their GPU was less powerful than the one you're using). 

 

What are some Austrian online retailers you can shop at? Or are all these prices from local Walk-In stores?

mylemon.at or smthg like that.. I didn't choose exact shop, where I'll buy it, cause some parts are cheaper in some stores. For case I wanted some sort of a window and that case looked quite good for me. But what are your recommendations in sub 50 Euro zone?

They have a Focus G which is a great option.

They also have the Coolermaster MB510L, MB520 and K500L

https://mylemon.at/artikel/coolermaster/mcb_k500l_kann_s00/case-midi-coolerm-masterbox-k500l.html

https://mylemon.at/artikel/coolermaster/mcb_b520_kann_s00/coomas-masterbox-mb520-rd.html

 

I would definitely recommend the K500L since it comes with three fans out of the box and they're being utilized properly by the case design.
