motherboad Can i run it without burning my house down?

[Loenneborg]

Hey, i just got a "new" motherbaord. 

It's the "Asus Rog Strix b-350 gaming", i want to put these specs into my pc and onto my motherboard: AMD Ryzen 5 3600, Sapphire PULSE Radeon RX 5700, Corsair Hydro Series H55. Do i have to be carefull with the heat generated from the pc? Or is this cooler actually good enough.

you'll be fine. it's a small 120 rad so you shouldn't count on good overclocking performance, but if you just run it stock it should be just fine.

Make sure the Mobo supports 3rd gen and you have a way to update it if so

Few things here

 

First - update the BIOS for the 3600

Second -  the H55 will be fine - the 3600 is a very low-heat CPU. If you were talking about a 9700K or 3900X then an upgrade might be needed but for a 3600, you're fine.

Third - what power supply are you running? Realistically even 400W is enough but the quality is the main concern I have

First - thanks for the feedback

Second - how do i update it

Third - im thinking about running it with 700W, but i may only use 500W if 400 is gonna cut it.

Updating is done either with an older CPU if you have one or by asking the store to do it for you. Most will do it free, some charge 10$ for it. No biggie

 

As for the PSU - get a good quality unit. a CX450 is vastly superior compared to a DiabloTek 1000W or Lepa 1200W or whatever. Grab a good quality 400-500W unit and enjoy

He's talking about the H55. If you haven't bought the cooler - just get a Dark Rock 4 - it's vastly superior compared to the rather poor H55

For the power supply - what's the budget? A TXm Gold or Be Quiet Straight Power 11 Gold is my suggestion

Well, grab a CX550 then for future headroom and less noise/heat

Not really - so long as it's a recognizable brand like Crucial, Kingston, Corsair or whatever and not some chinese crap
