cpu and cpu cooler good enough.  Get msi b450 tomahawk max instead of just normal, The "Max" at the end means that is has been bios updated for supporting your processor.

Get g.skill Rippjaws 3600mhz cl16 ram kit instead.

put 2tb hdd there, if you do not already have one.

 

other are good

Hi boggy77

and thanks for the comment.

 

I have reviewed the crucial p1 ssd - the best part is 1TB, but... the benchmarks that i have reviewed, shows that evo 970 is really the better choice compared to storage

due the IO speed.

 

About the PSU, my previous one was also seasonic and im really happy with it, what are the advantages of corsair?

well tehn you are looking the wong kit or its out of stock right now. Look for other 16 gig 3600mhz cl16 kits. If you cannot find them at 25% more cost then go what you had at the first place. And it will give you a nice performance boost

if this build is for gaming, you won't notice the speed difference between the crucial and the samsung. that only comes into play when transferring very large files frequently.

as for the psu, the corsair rmx is better quality and also cheaper. (check out the psu tier lsit in my signature).

the difference in real life performance between 3600C16 and 3600C18 is about 1%. so I wouldn't spend more than 1% of the total build cost for faster ram. so that would be 10-15$
