New PC build

Go to solution Solved by Meganter,

Hello,

 

Is it purely for gaming ?

 

If yes :

Cpu: AMD 3800x or 3700x > 3600

MBO: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Pro Carbon WiFi > hell no, the worst x570, get a b450 MSI MAX (Tomahaw, A-Pro, Gaming PLUS)

SSD: Samsung 970 EVO SSD > overpriced, so get a nice MP510, Sabrent Rocket, HP 920EX etc 

AIO: Corsair H115i RGB Platinum > air cooler are as good and cheaper, get a eSports 34 for example.

So I am saving up for a new PC, and I just wanted to know if the parts I'm getting are worth it. (All listed below)

 

Graphics Card:Asus ROG Strix RTX 2070 super 8gb

 

Cpu: AMD 3800x or 3700x

 

MBO: MSI MPG X570 Gaming Pro Carbon WiFi

 

SSD: Samsung 970 EVO SSD

 

AIO: Corsair H115i RGB Platinum

 

RAM: Corsair vengeance RGB Pro 16gb 3200MHz

 

Fans: Corsair QL120 and 140 mm RGB fans

 

PSU (already owned): Corsair Rm750x white edition

Please do not get that motherboard, it has some of the worst VRMs of any X570 motherboard. I am sure someone else will suggest a better board to pick.

PC:

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X | AMD Radeon RX 7900 GRE | 32 GB RAM | Arch Linux

Laptop:

MacBook Pro 13" (2019) | Intel Core i5 8279U | 8 GB RAM | macOS

Server:

Intel Core i7 6700K | 16 GB RAM | 2 TB HDD | Debian Linux

It is not purely for gaming, also streaming and content creating. I am also going for aesthetics.
