Final Build Check

[nguyetq]

Build Help: Looking for help on my build since my knowledge on computer building is very limited. The PC will be mainly used for gaming, streaming, watching shows. I'm currently playing League of Legends, Final Fantasy XIV but want to be able to play new AAA games at High settings close to 144 FPS at 1080p but its not required around 120 is fine. I also stream on twitch once in a while and use dual monitors if that matters. My budget is $1200. I'm set on the NZXT H510 case because of the aesthetics and don't want to change it out unless its really going to hinder airflow or the pars don't fit. I have access to microcenter so the Ryzen 7 3700x is at $269.99. I can bundle it  with the Gigabyte x570 Aorus Ultra to save an additional $20 but I don't know if its worth it for the added cost of the Aorus Ultra. For RAM is it ok to go for just DDR4-3200 or should i just get the DDR4-3600? It seems worth it just for an $8 difference. Also would I be able to get by with just my old GTX 970 til the new cards come out? I'm ok with playing at lower frame rates and settings as long as the game can run still decently well.

any 550w psu will do. like corsair cx/txm/rm. antec neo eco gold 550/650w

bad airflow case. get fractal desing focus g instead.

asus prime-P is better x570 board.

Really good build but you can go with a rx5700xt to save some money the performance is the same but the rx5700xt costs less it is up to you. You should be good with a 650 watt psu. But otherwise really good build.

Yeah I was debating on the rx5700xt too but I heard some people had driver problems? Was sure if I wanted to deal with that.

The driver issues have mostly been ironed out and resolved. But if you are worried about that then I would say go nividia.

So if you were in my shoes what would you get?

[tank234]

5700xt becuase it is better value. You will maybe see like couple frame increase by going with the 2070 super but if you are really worried about the frames the 2070 super 

Here is a video comparing the two
