New PC build advice

Hello guys I had previously taken your advise to buy my gaming PC. It has performed phenomenally thanks to your help. Now the time has finally come for me to build a new computer. My current budget is 70000 INR (981.54 USD). My goal for this new build is only 1080p gaming at 60 fps. (BTW I am only buying the case along with its components and not monitors and peripherals.) I usually play the AAA stuff and occasionally casual games. Any help would be very much appreciated. Here are my dilemmas; Should I go team Red or Blue? Which graphics card should I buy?

Thanks in advance.

Here are the specs of my current computer:

Intel i5 6500

Asus H110m k

8GB X 2 DDR4 Kingston hyper x memory 2133mhz

Gainward GTX 1060 GB ddr5

Corsair VS550 PSU

Also got in ssd Samsung 750 EVO 120 GB

Cooler Master CMP 351 case

I am planning to buy:

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor

MSI B450M PRO-M2 V2 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard

Crucial Ballistix Sport LT 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3000 Memory

MSI Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB Video Card

Please suggest me an apt PSU to power this rig. Will 600W be sufficient? Also should I use faster ram?

I have multi monitor setup BTW.

Thanks in advance.

Hey, no 600W won't be enough for rx 5700 xt. So get something like 750W cuz  recommanded is 600W but that is never enough. After years of experiences you need that 100W headroom so get this one if you have enough money https://amzn.to/2LH5Cyh. And also i have notieced you are going for the reference rx 5700 xt... IMO the custom is worth the extra money as it is much cooler and quiter imma just give you my suggestion https://amzn.to/32PNSGw. And ye that Ram is good enough  i would use that one as well. I dont mind if you ask me something.

A 550W will easily power a 5700XT.

recommendation by AMD is 600 and you have to count all the other stuff so nah 550 is not enough for sure

That board is not good. See if you can get something like the B450M Gaming Plus instead.

 

A 550W psu is enough. Depends on your budget ? Something like a Bitfenix Formula is fine.

Yeah ignore what AMD suggest. A 550W is plenty.

Why do you keep repeating yourself ?

 

If you don't want to take my word for it then maybe a review will help. You can see that system power consumption is 322W and that is with an 8700K.

Thanks guys.

BTW is my choice of graphics card correct for 1080p gaming. Is NVIDIA better option or should I stick with AMD?

The RX 5700 XT or even the 5700 are usually better value than Nvidia. If you want cheaper still then there is the RX 580/590. Still capable cards for 1080p.

 

This Sapphire Pulse is good for the price if it is in your budget. Much better than the blower type coolers.
