Hi, I just need advice on my planned build.I mostly work with 3D and Motion Graphics and I'm also planning on moving to a GPU based render engine like Redshift. As for gaming, I just go for casual AAA titles. Please let me know if my build is enough or if I have to swap some of the parts. Thanks!

Better put some money from RGB cooler to 3-rd Gen Ryzen, 2060 Super (it is WORTH the overpay unlike 2080 Super, thanks to additional 2 GB of VRAM and 15% perf improvement), better cooler w/o RGB and X570 board. I'd also say to bump power supply up to 600 W and SSD to 256 GB (for faster renders), but now I see my suggestions written, and... Unless you have enough money to do all of them, I'd say go for 2060 Super.

Purify your Windows 10/11, don't give Microsoft anything that you don't want to share.

Thanks for the recommendations, reading back all the things I listed down and considering everything that you mentioned, it all makes much more sense to ditch most of the RGB stuff and reallocate the budget more on performance. Thanks again!

Hi, I mostly use After Effects and Illustrator for my motion graphics. As for my 3D, I use ZBrush, Maya and Substance Painter. I'm based in the Philippines, I only used PC part picker since it had options for compatibility, wattage etc. I've also converted the total cost and it's pretty much close enough with my local currency.
