[Jacob_S]

***This is my first custom build***

case: Corsair 465x

aio: Corsair h100i

memory: Trident Z RGB 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3200 

Storage: XPG SPECTRIX S40G RGB m.2 1TB

external 3.0 Samsung 2tb ssd 

extra LL 120 fan for back exhaust 

Power: Corsair cxm 650 80+ bronze

Lights: Phanteks neon strips, strimer plus gpu power

monitor: AOC U2790VQ 27" 4K. (I know it’s 60fps but this was purchased before I built pc, used for Mac setup)

 

Any thoughts or suggestions? I use this for light gaming and basic web browsing

maybe get a b series board and get higher freq memory  

also aio and liquid coolind and that kind of stuff are performing very close to air cooling i would say go for a something like a noctua

may i know why you recommend a b450 or b550 when he can clearly afford an x570?

1. instead of the cxm series, id rather recommend the non modular cx series 650w. if you would like the modular feature, consider getting a TXM, RMx, or Vengeance series psu from corsair.

2. any reason why you went with an external 2tb ssd?

3. at this budget (im assuming 1500-200$), its best to wait till september to build. new generation processors (zen3, 4000 series ryzen) and new GPUs (Nvidia 3000 series ampere, AMD Big Navi) is coming soon, the same price youre paying now can get you much better performance in 2 months. it is of best interest for you to wait.

but if he can afford it, isnt it better to get x570?

agreed, but if he can afford the extra benefits then there's no problem in getting one, is there? why simply cut costs when it is not needed?
