I have a budget of $1500. I need a gaming rig and am thinking about using AMD Ryzen5 3600. I need help with choosing the following:

- X570 Motherboard

- Nvidia GPU (Possibly RTX)

- PSU (Gold)

- 16GB RAM

- Monitor

- Mouse

- Keyboard

Also windows 10 Home is included in the budget

If you are not planning on upgrading your CPU,you should go with a b450 motherboard

You do not need a x570 board for r5 3600. And that msi board will support future ryzen processors good enough

16gig 3600 mhz memory with 16 cas latency. Sweet spot for ryzen.

That adata m.2ssd is very fast and cheap for its performance. 2 tb hdd for large files.

One of the cheapest rtx 2060 super (not bad rtz 2060 super though). I would suggest you to get rx 5700 since its a  better than rtx 2060 super and you can  bios flash it to 5700 xt (for extra performance) and its a little cheaper.

Phanteks p300 is a good and cheap"ish" case.

Very good psu.

 

Now i do not know much about peripherals or monitors.  But 1440p 144hz ips panel will do good.

You coul get cheaper keyboard (mayby corsair k68 or k70) but my friend has that keyboard and i love it!

The mouse is really good for the price.

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)
