Hello, I want to build a new PC, it will be used mainly for gaming. I don't play very new titles, but games like RUST, GTA V, APEX LEGENDS, etc. should run easily on 1080p. My budget is +-900 euros

I'm thinking of these specs:

GPU: GTX 1660ti

CPU: Ryzen 5 2600

MOBO: Asrock B450m pro4

PSU: Be quiet pure power 9 600w

STORAGE: intel 660p 1TB m.2 nvme ssd

CASE: aerocool cylon mini

RAM: 16gb 3000mhz

 

Is cpu good enough for 1660ti?

Can you bump up the CPU to a 2700x ?  It is only like 185 or so dollars and you get 8 cores and the fastest AMD consumer CPU for 2018.  The 2600 will run games fine tho.

Yes, CPU is more than adequate.
Make sure the RAM you get is a dual channel (2 sticks, 8GB each) kit.
Specs are good, should be great for 1080p gaming.

 

Also, that case looks like it might have poor airflow. You should probably put a fan on top for intake and populate front panel with fans, as well.

To get pricing right, it sure helps if you give the country you're buying in. 

 

PCPartPicker has most european countries as an option so a poster could mock-up a build of what it will really cost.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

A few bones to pick right off the bat here:

 

-Not in euros, (he did not say he was buying in US, he's in Lithuania)

-Overpaying for the cooler (there are far better air coolers if you're going to reject the AMD Wraith Spire to the tune of almost $40)

-RAM is a bit speny, you're paying for the RGB, similar with the motherboard

-The 970 Evo is a bit pricey especially for gaming-only uses.  If it was for Premiere sure, but other NVMe SSDs will do the same in gaming.

-A 2.5" 5400rpm Hitachi Hard drive is being recommended as a storage drive in a PC ... in this year or any year for that matter?!?!  WHAT?!

-Case is a bit speny, and PSU is not a good value, it's lower-tier than a normal Corsair CX, which is a much better-buy (in US market).
