I would wait maybe a month till the bugs are worked out with RX 5700 XT, but that is my opinion with most new tech.

Yooo just made This account and I have been thinking about getting a graphics card for around 400-500ish $/€. 

 

Personally thought about getting the new RX 5700 XT and that would be paired with a last gen Ryzen 5 2600 non X

 

Is there a better card for the pairing or should I go with a 2060 etc

 

IMPORTANT: IM NOT CHANGING THE RYZEN CPU, RYZEN FTW REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

 

specs for the upcoming build

 

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600

RAM: 16GB 3200mhz

MOTHERBOARD: dunno forgot some WiFi gigabyte mini itx around 160-180$

STORAGE: 120gb ssd & 1 tb hdd 

case (if that matters): Phanteks eclipse 400

GPU:_______________ to be Continuing

If you don't have your mind made up I have an alternative suggestion, since you mentioned mini ITX

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Fasauceome, looked at the case u mentioned (silverstone sugo SG13B) and I thought it looked like a microwave LMAO and i already thought of a small form case from fractal design node 202. Just that one cause of its very similar design of a Xbox one.
