I know what i'm getting and my build has already been thought out, but what would you guys build in my position? (PCPP lists if you can be bothered). I'm Australian and have a budget of $750 AUD (ish, i will consider going over for performance) I only have one 75Hz 1920x1080p monitor and don't plan to get more, and I have peripherals covered. Love to see what you guys can come up with and thanks in advance!

This is about the best you can get without getting an APU. Yes I know it's fairly over budget

This is a build if you absolutely HAVE to stay within that budget. I recommend the build above me (RX 570 build) rather than this one though if you can pay a bit over budget.

You probably won't reach 75hz 1080p except for esports games and some older titles unfortunately. If you want to reach 75hz 1080p, get that build above me instead if you can.

I would change the Power supply to a CX750M

Recommended wattage is 550W for GPU

This supply will do just fine, 750w is extremely overkill as well.

I like to add overhead for future upgrades. I agree that 1000W and up is overkill but not 750W.

No single GPU system needs a 750w power supply. Especially a system like this.

The RX570 is not gonna top 200W in power pull, it isn't a power-hungry beast like a RTX2080. 

OP's budget is also tight and everything is more expensive in Australia.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600  Heatsink: ID-Cooling Frostflow X GPU: Zotac GTX 1060 Mini 6GB RAM: KLEVV Bolt 3600Mhz (2x8GB) Mobo: ASUS B550-F ROG Strix (Wifi)  Case: Fractal Design Meshify C PSU: Deepcool DQ-M-V2L
