Gaming intel build around 1600$

[Sorfex0]

Edited. How does this look? Kinda switched to intel, because people told me i will have better time in VR and to be honest i'm kinda afraid to go AMD road so i'm willing to pay a bit more for faster driver updates and stability.

both motherboards need to be updated before you install the cpu

drop the network card unless you need additional Ethernet inputs, the mobo already comes with a single 10/100/1000 port in the io

Import fees, which import fees? Lithuania is part of the European Union. So can buy anything from all around the EU without paying any import fees.

Those are pre-build. It should be good out of the box with no updates needed and can't really ask them to remove network card.

Yeh, but still the shops are constantly out of a lot of parts and shipping them from even EU countries can cost a pretty penny. Plus i would prefer having warranty in my own country without need to send god knows where for who knows how long if you get me! I mean it's still possible to build pc from parts. That's how i build my first one, but i did have to change quite few parts that i originally planned because the market didn't had them at time or they didn't even exist in europe. 
 

[oeci]

That's a valid argument and it's of course entirely your choice. What's more you certainly don't need to justify your decision. I simply wanted to clarify that there are definitely no import fees to pay for purchases throughout the European  Union and its toll union.

[VEXICUS]

Crap PSU, other than that the build looks OK to me.

 

I mean you can make a way better system, if you build it yourself.

If this is the Asus tuff model, then it is one of the the worst cooled 5700xt's out there. That card literally heats up and throttles down.

Sounds pretty bad, if that's true. I will try piecing something together from parts you dropped!

How does this look? I dropped RGB on a lot of parts, cuz... No excuses there. But other than that is it pretty? ^^
CPU cooler comes with CPU it self and no there is no choice to take it without it.
Phanteks cases are not a thing sadly in here. Same with the power suplies. Motherboard wise i don't wanna pay too much but i really dislike the red accents on MSI board. So i kinda picked RGB one. Hahaha

• No need of that wraith max cooler as the 3700x already comes with a wraith prism cooler.
• Go with the ram kit that I have mentioned above. It is 3600mhz with better timings.
• Sapphire nitro+ is an excellent card. But you can save around €50 by going with the Sapphire pulse varient. They both perform pretty much similar.
• I would blindly go with the formula gold over the RM series from corsair. Also the formula gold is cheaper by around €50.
• The x470 prime pro  board that you have got in there belongs to tier d whereas the b450 board that I have mentioned above belongs to tier C. Maybe you can check the motherboard tier list. 

Can go with this board if you didn't like the look of the one I recommended.

build looks good. cooler is included in the price of the cpu, no need to buy it separately.

Switched parts into intel and nvidia. People said i will have a lot better time with those in VR.
And to be honest i'm afraid to go amd road so i'm willing to pay a bit extra.
Changed ram into same speed and latency (the ones that you offered are not available)
Don't have that psu in my country. I'm not fan of corsair psu either, but we don't have much choice here sadly.

Then those people dont know shit. VR has essentially two monitors to render for, and as a result has more pixels and stresses out the GPU more than say, a single 1080p display. With only a 2070S, you'll hit the GPU bottleneck first even with 3rd gen Ryzen.

 

and I havent seen a VR game that's considered really CPU heavy, compared to non-VR games like RDR2 or Assassin's Creed Origins/Odyssey. You're still GPU bottlenecked in those games though with graphics settings turned up even at 1080p since they are also really GPU heavy.

By the tier list looks like corsair rm series should be fine! Thanks for sharing this!
As far as i heard and read on forums the the higher clocks of cores from 4790k pulls it a head quite a bit. Especially in unreal engine games and there is quite a lot of them on VR. Tho overall i guess i just prefer having the best gaming experience now. I heard that 3700x would be more futerproof and easier to upgrade, but to be honest i'm not planning to upgrade in till probably it's about time to get a new system. Still rolling my 4790k with 970sli. But triple a titles started slowing down so decided to change the system. Also read a lot of scary things about amd gpus driver wise and optimization wise. I might end up paying quite a bit of "alpha" titles. So i guess paying a bit more for better optimized drivers is fine.

[oeci]

And what exactly hinders you from combining the best CPU you can afford (currently AMD) with a Nvidia GPU?

Ryzen 3rd gen has more cores and higher IPC so single core performance is also better (they can get past 200cb in single core score at stock settings with 3200MHz dual channel memory, your 4790k can't even at 5GHz)

I didnt recommend AMD GPUs here, they are straight up slower than the 2070S and that goes above all else.

AMD CPUs are fine, I'd avoid AMD GPUs for VR.  

I'd use a ryzen 7, and the gigabyte rtx 2070s on this list
