So I am planning to build a new pc to play minecraft with shaders and other graphic intensive tasks to upgrade from my "ok" 2013 Hp laptop with 8gb ddr3 ram and a intel i7-4600u. I'm planning on getting a rtx 2060 (super), a "decent" motherboard, a 250 gb ssd, two non detailed 8gb ddr4/3 sticks and a case and harddrive I have laying around. Now I don't know what to get as a cpu as I'm not plainning on doing much rendering or other cpu intensive task and because of how much I'm going to be spending on the graphics card, I don't want to spend more than I have to on the cpu. Any ideas or comments on my build plan would be appreciated as this is my first pc build and I'm not an expert on everything yet. I would need to be cooling so if anyone has a good cost effective cooling ideas I would appritiate that too.

Ryzen 5 1600AF is usually the best bang for your buck. What budget do you have for the whole PC, and what country?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

How many watts do I need?
