My first build suggestions requested.

[DarkAavenger777]

This is going to be my first build and i have already bought the case, ram, cpu cooler and motherboard.

THE BUILD

Are there any suggestions from you guys?

Also how will i connect all the rgb fans into one port on the smart device in my case?

Are there any problems i am going to face for example like not enough ports for something, etc.?

Thanks a lot.

Thr AIO is a massive waste of money. The GPU cooler is Mediocre and the HDD is shit.

 

Get a Dark Rock Slim for the cooler

A WD RE or Black for the drive

And a Sapphire Nitro for the GPU model

 

Also, you don't even need 550W as the entire system will barely use 350W. 750W is absurd overkill, get a SeaSonic Platinum 500-600W instead

Well, just looking at your list in general you can use a B450 Tomahawk and save £100, in addition to just buying a Noctua NH-U12S Chromax (So it's all black), saving you another £100 or so. Spend that extra money to get a RTX 2070S, and you are golden. As for theming you can really do whatever you want, just chuck some RGB fans into the case along with a Corsair controller and you are good to go.

But i already got both of those things for free from one of my friends

The Gigabyte cooler is shit. The Sapphire Nitro is the absolute best available.

 

As for the power supply, no amount of upgrades will push you over 450W max. 750W is a waste of money. Get a higher quality unit instead

You really should get a B450 Tomahawk or similar so that you can use the money saved on a graphics card that's better. You should buy the 2070S for about $500 USD.

The 2070S isn't worth the extra £100 over a 5700XT.

Well, we all have our different opinions. Reasons I like the 2070S over the 5700 XT:

• DLSS
• RTX
• NVENC Encoder (awesome for streamers)

Of course, some people may not need these features but it's great to have them if you do need them.

Still not worth it if he is just gaming. I would rather spend that extra £100 on a 3700X.

No because the Asus coolers this generation are horrible and the cards overheat. Again, there is nothing that is even remotely as good as the Sapphire Nitro - it's literally among the top 5 coolers on the GPU market.

RTX is useless - the 3070 will be about 4 times better at ray-tracing than the 2070 Super.
He's not streaming so the encoder is useless
DLSS is not supported so it's also useless.

should I wait for the 3000 series? will they be good competitors against 5700xt at the same point?

If you have 50-100% more money, then yea. If you want value, then no

The Powercolor Red Devil is also very good and that costs £39 less than the Nitro if buying direct from Amazon.
