Help, 1st PC Build

[GamingKevin]

Can I get some of you folks to review this build I put together. I'm new to this so apologies if this list is a mess.

 

My vision for this build is to play at 1080p 144hz.

 

I'm up for swapping parts out if needed, I have a budget of $1000 so go at it.

 

Thanks in advance.

Yep, your list is private unfortunately. According to your previous posts you are located in the US, correct?

 

Since we can't see your build (yet) here's a potential build for you.

If you can't stretch the budget that far, go with an 5700XT instead of the 2070 Super and you will be within budget.

If you want more storage you can get a 500GB MX500 SSD and a 2TB Seagate Barracuda HDD instead.

Apologies for that, should be public now. Very much appreciate your build.

I see it now, thanks.

 

CPU should be replaced with a 3600, and that SSD isn't amazing. Also, I personally fucking despise unreliable Seagate drives, but apparently two of my drives being DOA and the other two dying shortly after is just bad luck on my part. I would get a WD Blue or Black instead, but that's just my opinion.
