If you have extra budget try getting a 5600XT (This if you don't mind the worse cooler to save €25) or maybe the RX 5700.

 

Hello,

Because It's my first time to buy a new PC Gaming Desktop, but not normal or work.

I am trying to find the best budget for a motherboard with CPU and Air Cooler, RAM, etc.

Also, I am looking for quiet more for CPU Cooler and no noise.

And If SSD Samsung 860 1TB is really worth as faster than any SSD. If I didn't know maybe. I'm also looking for that over SSD 1TB only. But I'm not interested in HDD or SSD, SSHD low storage.

About a case. I don't really know what is the best case, like sharkoon.

I am looking to buy the best budget motherboard and etc list here,
 

  1. Case: Sharkoon VG7-W Red, or something.
     
  2. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600x or 2700x, 3600.
     
  3. CPU Cooler: Cooler Master MasterAir MA410M
     
  4. Motherboard: Asus PRIME B450M-A Micro ATX AM4 or others.
     
  5. Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (1 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200 or Corsair 16GB (1 x 16 GB) DDR4-3200.
     
  6. Storage: Samsung 860 QVO 1 TB 2.5"
     
  7. Video Card: Asus Radeon RX 580 - 896 2 GB AREZ or ASRock Phantom Gaming AMD Radeon RX 580 8GB or AMD Radeon RX 580
     
  8. Power Supply: be quiet! Pure Power 11 CM 600 W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-modular ATX

Only in the Netherlands shop.

 

Please, let me if there any know to buy the best budget.

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 :)

NOTE: It would be easier if I knew your actual budget, and what kind of gaming you want to do.  For example, if you want to game in 1080p, or 1440p then you'll be getting completely different answers.  For most budget builds, 1080p is usually the option. Let me know what you're trying to do, and I could dial in a more concise list for you. 

 

Case - Whatever case you want.  Check reviews for build quality and make sure it has features you want.  Some cases are more difficult to build in, considering this is your first build, you might want to find one that's easy to work in.  I have no experience with Sharkoon cases, so I can't weigh in on that choice.  

 

CPU - the 3600 is kind of the king of budget PC builds right now.  I will say this, pairing it with an RX580 might be a bit of a waste.  If the 580 is your GPU budget, then I'd say save some money and go with a 2600.  A good rule of thumb, your GPU can be around 30 to 40% of your budget, if you're going to be gaming.

 

CPU Cooler - The stock cooler that comes with the 3600 is just fine honestly.  I did a build for a friend using it a few months back, it's very quiet.  I'd say try the stock cooler to begin with, if you need something nicer once you're finished you can always add one later.  If quiet is your goal, look into Be Quiet or Noctua options. 

 

MOTHERBOARD - Here, you'll have to do some research, and it'll depend on the options you want/need and what your budget is.  IF you go with the 3600, then PERSONALLY I'd suggest springing for an X570 board.  Budget X570 boards are only a little bit more expensive than the B450 Tomahawk that a lot of people suggest, and it might be worth it to you.  The B450 Tomahawk will work just fine though. 

 

MEMORY - You listed single sticks, you will want to use two sticks to take advantage of these CPU's supporting Dual Channel Memory.  So getting TWO 8GB Sticks will actually get you a better experience than one 16GB stick.  Especially if you go with the 3600 CPU you will want a minimum of 3200 speed and a maximum of 3600 speed RAM.  Any decent Memory Kit you can afford within that speed range will be great.  Don't worry about springing for super expensive RAM with super low CL timings, because it's not worth it in most cases. 

 

STORAGE - Go with an M.2 SSD, they are easier to install, and not much more than a standard 2.5" drive.  SSD's are so reasonably priced these days, I don't even bother suggesting mechanical drives to people anymore, just get SSDs.  Start with a 500GB one to load your OS on and that'll get you started on a game library.  If you need more down the road, just look for deals on other M.2 1TB drives to buy, and add them into your system very easily.  I have three 1TB M.2 SSD's in my current system, I just wait until I see one on sale and buy it.  I think I paid like $80 for the last one. 

 

VIDEO CARD - Like I said earlier, pairing an RX580 with a Ryzen 3000 series CPU is quite a mismatch.  If you're focus is 1080p gaming, then the 580 is a decent enough card, but you could take the money you're saving by not buying a cooler to begin with and putting that into your GPU to get you something along the lines of a 5700

 

PSU - Check the list, find the one in one of the nicer tiers you can afford.

1. Note Black ops 3, Overwatch, League of legends, Plan to play Horizon Zero Dawn until release in summer, etc new game.

 

Only for 1080p

 

2. Case I don't have a choice a good for case. But sharkoon looks pretty good at model and RGB. I don't know.

 

3. CPU I will choose 3600.

 

4. CPU Cooler Thanks for the info. I will take look later.

 

5. MOTHERBOARD what would you recommend me to buy x570 from MSI or Asus, Asrock, gigabyte motherboard?

 

6. MEMORY Actually, I think maybe I would choose with 1x16GB than 8.

 

7. STORAGE Thanks for the info.

 

8. VIDEO CARD Yeah, just for 1080p, I don't think I'll go 580 or R5700

If you're going with Ryzen, always go for dual channel ram - so 2x8Gb or 2x16gb etc etc.

There is a visible performance gain between the two - dual is just better.

Just to add, the cooler like was mentioned before can be bought afterwards in case the stock one is too loud for you, if the stock is quiet enough you save €50, if it isn't you can get a quiet cooler like the Fuma 2.

Sorry man, but You'd be better off with less RAM but 3600 speed.  Zen 2 works best with RAM between 3200 - 3600Mhz  Unless you are going to overclock your RAM.
