I did some research and got what I want. Just looking for tips and possible better choices. First time building and I don't want to mess up.

Tip #1: Go AMD. I've used Intel for years and switched to an AMD system a while ago, and it is definitely worth it. higher performance and lower price. No Intel product currently competes with an AMD product within it's price point, by nearly any metric, by a landslide.

 

Tip#2: Get an M.2 or at least a SATA SSD. For your price point you'll be infuriated with the speed of an HDD.

 

Tip#3: You don't need liquid cooling (unless you are doing heavy overclocking) or RGB (it can become a HUGE money trap for most people) with the money you have spent on RGB and water cooling, you could significantly upgrade your GPU and your CPU.

 

Tip#4 The RAM you picked is really over priced. Stick with some G.skill ripjaw or something less flashy and you'll save ~10-20% on RAM

budget and country? Ryzen is no-brainer in under 2000dollar gaming pc's. AMD ryzen will deliver much better performance than intel can (in budget builds) and ryzen comes with decent stoc cooler so you wont have to buy a new cooler.

I Use my knowledge as business owner and self taught technician aswell as an AI to help people. AI might be controversial but it actually works pretty well 90% of the time.

Well. the core i3 9100-F is a great deal, at only 75$. i only agree for the ryzen 5s

I appreciate the tips. Is there fans that have good performance and little sound compared to the ML120, 140? If there is a better price point than RGB fans it'll be nice to know.
