Help with part list

[Callumm]

Hello, I’m not sure if this is where I ask but I was looking to build a pc for somewhere in the 2000-3000 aud range. The pc will be mostly used for gaming with a bit of video editing on the side, I don’t need anything like monitors or keyboards and such, the only thing I’m adamant about except for the inwin infinity case and maybe the rgb Corsair ram

 

heres what me and a friend put together quickly, I don’t think the list price includes the case and I need a hard drive  

 

Thanks,

Also this is my first home build so I’m not experienced

Is there any easy way to make this list a bit less?

 

also I’m quite inexperienced, will this intel cpu to LGA be something I have to go out of my way to do or is it just a another cpu that has some stuff going on I don’t know about

Wow! Thank you so much for your quick replies, it looks just like what I need but is this Intel core to LGA motherboard something I need to look into or is it just some stuff I don’t need to worry about. Is there a reason it should be that motherboard?

LGA stands for Land Grid Array, and describes the connection between the CPU and the motherboard. That means the motherboard CPU socket(the slot you put the CPU into) has gold pins in it, and the CPU has gold plates. These plates and pins contact when the CPU is installed.

There is PGA(pin grid array), where the pins are on the CPU and the plates are on the motherboard socket(this is used by AMD), and BGA(Ball grid array). BGA is mostly used for stuff like RAM modules where it is soldered

I assume you care about aesthetics, so I chose a much cheaper case which still looks gorgeous, 5 RGB fans to compliment that, RGB RAM and a decent looking GPU.

 

RTX 2070 can be overclocked to reach 2070 Super levels. If you want the 2070 Super's extra performance, just buy an RTX 2080. 

 

Ryzen 5 3600 has same amount of threads and cores as i7-8700, slightly slower clock speed but much higher instructions per clock.

 

Intel 660p has very good price to performance, cheaper than many slower SATA SSDs

If I really did want the inwin infinity case would this list still work?

I personally wouldn't recommend it, as it is overpriced but it would work. The In Win infinity case fits 5 fans so it would be fine

Sweet, I just really want that in particular because the way it would be set up in my room the only part you’d be able to see without getting close would be the cool bit. And I’d be happy to just stare at that effect rather than play games

The 2070 super is significantly faster the 2070, overclocking the 2070 to 2070 super levels is unrealistic imo. The 2060 super is basically as fast as a 2070 and the 2070 super is basically as fast as the 2080. I would recommend going with 2060 super > 2070 and 2070 super > 2080. The 2070 super is also the same GPU die as the 2080

I agree with this. I have a 660p as a second ssd in my system. But I use a smaller 970 evo as my main drive because it’s more reliable (and faster)

The pc part picker says “

• Warning!Some AMD B450 chipset motherboards may need a BIOS update prior to using Zen 2 CPUs. Upgrading the BIOS may require a different CPU that is supported by older BIOS revisions.” Is this something I need to worry about?
