Advice on PC Setup

[LuckyKray13]

So I'm building my first PC, used prebuilts or hand me downs before but thought it was time to set up my own. I've decided on all the components I think would be good for my need (which is gaming with multitasking on second monitor).
I dont have a budget per say but am only putting aside £100 per month.
I am wondering if there is anything I could improve on and for a small price increase I could benifit alot more.

I do already own some components as was planning on upgrading my old prebuild however due to OEM windows it sucks a** not having windows and plan on giving the old prebuilt to the kids once new system is built.

My Parts List;

CPU: Ryzen 3 3100 [Already owned] - £95 and really regret not getting the 3300X

Motherboard: TUF B450M-Plus Gaming [Already Owned] - £85

Ram: Crucial Ballistix 2x8GB 3200 [Already Owned] - £75
GPU: Thinking either;

- RTX 2060
- GTX 1660 Super [Found for £220]
- Radeon Rx 590 Fatboy [Found for £180]

PSU: Corsair VS650

Storage:

- Corsair MP510 250GB NVMe

- Seagate BarraCuda 2TB

Case: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-06
Case Fans: Corsair AF120 Triple Pack x2

 

The total spend excluding GPU, as I'm really unsure what to pair with the plan, is £549

All the GPUs are decent options. Also consider the 5600XT. I would just buy the best one you can afford- i.e the 2060 or 5600XT if possible. 

 

Get a different PSU. Something like a corsair TXM would do nicely. This is at a great price atm https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/dDH48d/corsair-txm-gold-550w-80-gold-certified-semi-modular-atx-power-supply-cp-9020133-na    Have a look at the PSU tier list in the PSU sub-forum, and pick something from the B+ or A tier. 

 

Could save a bit of money on the corsair ssd. Could get cheaper nvme options from the likes of sabrent or crucial, or just get a SATA drive. If its just gaming you wont really notice any difference between any of these options.

 

Otherwise looks good. Enjoy

At that savings rate the parts you buy will all be different.  Don’t get married to anything out now.  It will all be quasi-obsolete in 6 months
