Hey guys so could you check if this is a good build. So I already have the case and power supply with custom sleeved cabling and I am hoping to order all these parts relatively soon because of the new ryzen 3rd gen release. Do you guys agree with these parts together?

 

I live in the UK and the build will be for wide genre gaming and for use in my Computer Science Degree

You should probably wait a bit for the 2080 super, if you can. If not, eh. Not the end of the world.

 

Why get 2 1tb drives instead of one 2tb?

Because right now I dont have the extra money to get the 2tb so will be getting one then getting another very soon. Also pretty sure 2 1tb drives are cheaper than a single 2tb.

 

Also not heard anything about the 2080 super before so will look into that now haha

Nope, I just found out 2tb drives existed today. They cost exactly two times as 2 1tb drives, surprisingly.

 

Anyhow, I personally never felt the need to go beyond 1tb, I just found the disk setup curious

Ahh I will look into it then. I am ordering the CPU and MOBO now because they are low in stock but will wait for my next paycheck to get the other parts  thanks for the help

Looks solid, maybe consider 3200 MHz memory, should not be much more than the 3000 MHz you have there 

 

Just can't tell if those SSDs are SATA or NVMe?

 

As far as the GPU is concerned, maybe wait for 2080S or try to find it second hand 

 

Overall a great build!

Yh thanks just found out after looking at the 3700x that I need 3200mhz memory apparantly, plus found it on amazon for like £3 more lmao.

Amazon seems to say they are NVMe so I am hoping they are haha.

 

Also yeah will be holding out for the 2080s I think because I am now going to sell my pc as a built pc and get a case psu and more sleeved cabling so will need to wait a while
