I am going to be building my first gaming pc.

Are there any changes i should make?

I am based in the uk.

Most of the prices I can get cheaper.

Also, would the RX 5600XT be a better gpu option than what I have listed.

You dont need two different types of memory. they are also different speeds.

 

the 5700xt would be a better gpu

your previous config from the previous post was better. the msi motherboard is better.

the 5600xt and 2060 are very similar. depends on the price. the 2060 has a few extra features (rtx, nvenc) and more stable drivers.

this is not a real nvme drive, it's a sata drive in m.2 form. get a nvme drive, they are not more expesnive. try crucial p1 or intel 660p or wd sn550
