Was wondering does this work? I own the GPU already so i dont want to change it

[sld87]

yes

[Rokas111]

ok thanks

[Quadriplegic]

Would it work? Yes.

Should you build it? No.

[Caennanu]

i agree with @Quadriplegic it will work, but you can get much better performance for the same price.

Also, why would you want a seperate soundcard?

If you're buying this new, then it's at least 3 years out of date.

This is probably what you should be aiming for. 6700k is outdated at this point. It's still a good gaming cpu, but stuff like Battlefield V and other games are starting to move towards more cores and threads. 4 cores 8 threads is hanging on..a..thread (Sorry, couldn't resist).

 

This performs slightly better than that 6700k, while having a way better experience overall in games because of the extra cores and threads.

 

If you're happy messing about with the bios to get ryzen 3000 support, then saving some money on a b450 board would work (I'm not sure if the US has the b450 MAX boards yet, so those could be options too for out of the box support)

 

The psu was way overkill so we've saved some money on that, and we've also changed the 500gb ssd to a 1tb one. And it still comes to $300 less, so there we go. Enjoy.

 

And no, AMD is not hot and slow (I'm sure that's what you'll be thinking). That's long gone.

If buying used yes, but if you are buying new, you can get a lot better and save money. Don't buy a sound card. If its for gaming it will make no difference. If you are editing audio get something like the focusrite scarlett.

Not to highjack. I remember back in the day using the sound card for the gaming sound then running music off of the onboard sound and a second set of speakers.    This still a thing? Maybe why he is looking at a sound card.
