Can someone help me review my pc part picker list? no one replied on my other one

1. Budget & Location

I am located in Canada, Unfortunately alberta is 10x colder than bc and I plan to spend about  1800$-2000$ cdn (roughly equals to 1400-1550 $US and 1070-1200 $CAD) I am on this strict budget and cannot go above because I will work a bit before and for my entire school break. 

 

2. Aim

The main focus is going to be gaming (75hz 1920x1080 monitor) and watching Youtube videos. I might potentially go pro, but school will severely limit me.

 

I play mostly fortnite(please don't criticize it), but i intend to move to other games like apex, and possibly rainbow six siege With my current hardware pick I'll get 3 months of gamepass on pc for free so there's a wide variety of games for me to play.

 

 

5. Peripherals

There's no plan the purchase new peripherals(but possibly a headset). Currently on Logitech G502 hero, G213 progidy, and some cheap sony headset i got 2 years ago for like 30-40$

 

5. Why are you upgrading?

Well as i said this is my first build, before i used to play on a trash 700$ amd r4 laptop with integrated graphics, then i moved to an xbox, but i hate the xbox live gold u have to buy and i enjoy pc gaming more

 

anyways here are my specs:

AMD Ryzen 7 3700X 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor  $419.75  (@vuugo.com)

 

Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler
$99.95 (@newegg.ca)

 

Asus TUF GAMING X570-PLUS (WI-FI) ATX AM4 Motherboard $257(@pc-canada.com)

 

G.Skill Trident Z RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 Memory  $124.99 (@amazon.ca) 

 

Crucial P1 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive

 $130.62 (@shoprbc.com)

 

Asus tuf gaming oc 5700xt $560 (@vuugo.com)

   

 

Cooler Master MasterCase H500 ATX Mid Tower Case 

$129.99(@memoryexpress.com)

 

Corsair RMx (2018) 650 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular Power supply unit  $104 (@canadacomputers.com)

 

 

Corsair ML120 75 CFM 120 mm Fans  $39.99 (@amazon.ca)

 

 

is there anything i need to know or anything i'm missing

I'm not sure whether i need to upgrade my monitor from before because i might potentially be bottlenecking my system, I will get windows 10 like a couple of days after i build the pc, and is my power supply good enough or should i upgrade to a 750w one?

 

 

 

Here is another way to view the parts(i stopped updating my parts here, its tedious, just open the pcpartpicker link)

Really solid build overall, you'd be satisfied with these parts.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I needATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explainedgroup reg is bad

Thanks, i've been researching my build and learning more about parts for the last month. I just wanted to know whether there was anything that needed final touches

For that amount of Money you should get the Noctua N-HD15.

Asus Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB Video Card $519.00 (@canadacomputers.com)

note that the blower style is hot and loud

and its pretty overkill just for the games you listed at 1080p 75Hz

Honestly, I just want to experience games in an overkill way, I also want this build to last, I might upgrade from the blower style, I know it is hot but just cause of my budget I didn't change it. Let's just see what happens, I could probably ask my uncle to lend me 100 dollars to upgrade some of my stuff. Also I will upgrade my monitor down the line but not immediately

Sorry to bother you, but on pc partpicker it says that The Noctua NH-D15 82.5 CFM CPU Cooler may require a separately available mounting adapter to fit the MSI MPG X570 GAMING EDGE WIFI ATX AM4 Motherboard. What should I do?

the gaming edge is crap, replace it with the X570-P. if you can't spend much more, pick up an XFX AIB card for a few dollars more.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 5600X Heatsink: Gelid Phantom Black GPU: Palit RTX 3060 Ti Dual RAM: Corsair DDR4 2x8GB 3000Mhz mobo: Asus X570-P case: Fractal Design Define C PSU: Superflower Leadex Gold 650W

 It's a pretty solid choice, but I would not recommend as the others have already said the reference design of the Radeon card. Just find a cheap solid AIB design from Powercolor or Sapphire (Pulse is 10$ more) and the cooling power is a massive gain. The motherboard as Hermann McPootis just said it's not the best choice as Steve from Hardware Unboxed made a VRM thermal test and found that it was very poor in maintaining an acceptable temperature in comparison to other motherboards in that price range. So go with the ASUS TUF X570-Plus WiFi instead. 

Here's my two cents! ;)

CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X | Motherboard: ASUS ROG Crosshair VIII Formula | GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6900XT | RAM: 2*16GB 3200MHz 14-14-14-34 G.Skill Trident Z Royal Silver | SSD: 2TB Gigabyte Aorus Gen 4; 500GB Samsung 860 EVO | CPU Cooler: Corsair H115i RGB Platinum | PSU: Corsair AX850 | Case: Corsair Crystal 680X | Monitor: Eve Spectrum 4K | Keyboard: Logitech G513 Romer-G Tactile | Mouse: Logitech G502 Lightspeed

Sorry, i just saw this now, and I will go with that mobo and that leaves me with 40 dollars to spend extra on getting a better gpu style instead of the blower model

Did you manage to make a decision? :)

If it's similarly priced, the Dark Rock Pro 4 is a comparable unit (even a touch quieter) and isnt the ugly tan and brown. 

 

You might grab a Sabrent Rocket if it's similarly priced to the P1. 

 

BitFenix Whisper is often a savings vs the RM or RMx PSUs. Similarly awesome unit. 

 

Your build research is in the right place. Just small nitpicky notes.

I did. I changed my gpu and got a dual fan one for like 40$ more, and I switched the nh-d15 with the nh-d15s so i have like 7mm of clearance tho, but screw it. From what iIve seen I really want to stick with the noctua cpu cooler.

I seached about the bitfenix and it costs like 150 more than the one I'm using rn so I'm chilling without, and the sabrent ssds were like 30 bucks more since. the p1 i'm looking at is going for a good price as of the time i wrote this, also I stopped updating the list on this as it was tedious, so if u want to see any updates to the list go to pc part picker link
