planning my first pc build

jibbbb

Budget (including currency): 1200 dollars 

Country: Jordan 

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: cod warzone, minecraft, cs go, g mod

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

so this would be my first ever gaming rig and I've managed to get these parts within my budget and I was wondering what you guys think. 

 

CPU: ryzen 5 2600

GPU: rtx 2060

Power supply: EVGA 600w semi modular 80+ bronze

motherboard: MSI arsenal gaming

case: NZXT h510

memory: Gskill ripjaws 5 (16gb kit)

storage: WD black sn750 500gb NVMe m.2

Keyboard: Razer blackwidow TE chroma (managed to find new one for $69.99)

mic: Fifine k669b

monitor: Pixio px247

 

it would be really nice if you guys could let me know what you think. (I've also thought about shipping costs but I think my parents said they can cover it)

Should get a case with a mesh front for good cooling

 

that SSD is totally overkill, even a sata SSD is fine for just gaming.

 

If the RX 5700 is around the same price it's a faster GPU

 

that mic is really overkill, the mic on any decent headset should be fine.

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

thanks for the reply. I needed the mic because I do not currently have a headset with a mic, for some reason my headset only seems to have a mic if its connected by bluetooth and I went for the RTX 2060 over the 5700XT because I want the ray tracing

Could try one of these, they're as low as $10, should all be the same Chinese clones on ebay mostly

 

Some are even USB
 


Otherwise a lot of the cheap USB mics should be the same closer to $30 where that one used to be.

ok thank you

rx5700 beat rtx 2060 super in performance.

 

why would you even consider rtx 2060 super:

better encoder for streaming (more fluent streaming experience)

more stabile drivers

Nvidia fanboy

DLSS 2.0

ray tracing (wont run very good but it will run rtx minecraft full hd 50-70fps)

 

why would you consider rx 5700 over rtx 2060 super: 

better performance in games

 

 

i would always pick the better performer, but if you really want rtx or DLSS 2.0 go for rtx 2060 super. I wouldnt go for rtx 2060 super

QUOTE ME  FOR ANSWER.

Tier lists for building a PC.

 

Motherboard tier list. Tier A for overclocking 5950x. Tier B for overclocking 5900x, Tier C for overclocking 5800X. Tier D for overclocking 5600X. Tier F for 4/6 core Cpus at stock. Tier E avoid.

(Also case airflow matter or if you are using Downcraft air cooler)

Spoiler

 

Gpu tier list. Rtx 3000 and RX 6000 not included since not so many reviews. Tier S for Water cooling. Tier A and B for overcloking. Tier C stock and Tier D avoid.

( You can overclock Tier C just fine, but it can get very loud, that is why it is not recommended for overclocking, same with tier D)

Spoiler

 

Psu tier List. Tier A for Rtx 3000, Vega and RX 6000. Tier B For anything else. Tier C cheap/IGPU. Tier D and E avoid.

(RTX 3000/ RX 6000 Might run just fine with higher wattage tier B unit, Rtx 3070 runs fine with tier B units)

Spoiler

 

Cpu cooler tier list. Tier 1&2 for power hungry Cpus with Overclock. Tier 3&4 for overclocking Ryzen 3,5,7 or lower power Intel Cpus. Tier 5 for overclocking low end Cpus or 4/6 core Ryzen. Tier 6&7 for stock. Tier 8&9 Ryzen stock cooler performance. Do not waste your money!

Spoiler

 

Storage tier List. Tier A for Moving files/  OS. Tier B for OS/Games. Tier C for games. Tier D budget Pcs. Tier E if on sale not the worst but not good.

(With a grain of salt, I use tier C for OS myself)

Spoiler

 

Case Tier List. Work In Progress. Most Phanteks airflow series cases already done!

Ask me anything :)
