Adata xpg 600 pro 240gb

I will only be using for gaming at 1080p. Previously i used to have 1336*768@60hz with vga port.

 

Kindly recommend if any alternatives necessary. Also i need to know if the case and power supply is good enough. Thanks in advance.

rx 5700 is better. you can bios flash it to almost match the 5700 XT.

psu and case are decent.

you can get 2tb hdd for 5 dollars more than 1tb

is ram cl18? shouldnt be any higher.

 

other good

Doesn't the radeon cards run a little hotter.?Plus the driver issues of amd are also a bit of concern. 

 

And i am not sure about the ram timing. What should i look for ?
