get a 3600 instead of 3600x , literally does not matter unless u r overclocking and for overclocking u need a good cooler and a stock cooler wont do ..... and get a 500 gb ssd and get a 2 tb hard drive which is roughly ONLY 55 usd , and for the budget mentioned , get a better graphics card something like a rx 5700 xt or rtx 2060 super , the case is pretty good but , i would recommend a cooler master td 500 mesh for aesthetics

I mean at $1k USD I wouldn't call this budget, budget is like <$800 USD. 

Don't buy the 3600X, you pay extra for a letter and it doesn't do you anything because a simple overclock of a 3600 can match the performance of the 3600X. 

In fact, don't buy anything for at least a month or two. Wait till RTX 3000 and Ryzen 4000 release and you can something better for the same price. 

I don't think anybody should be building a new computer right now with RTX 3000 just around the corner and new CPUs a little later. 

Fuck you scalpers, fuck you scammers, fuck all of you jerks that charge way too much to tech-illiterate people. 

Unless I say I am speaking from experience or can confirm my expertise, assume it is an educated guess.

Current setup: Ryzen 5 3600, MSI MPG B550, 2x8GB DDR4-3200, RX 5600 XT (+120 core, +320 Mem), 1TB WD SN550, 1TB Team MP33, 2TB Seagate Barracuda Compute, 500GB Samsung 860 Evo, Corsair 4000D Airflow, 650W 80+ Gold. Razer peripherals. 

Also have a Alienware Alpha R1: i3-4170T, GTX 860M (≈ a 750 Ti). 2x4GB DDR3L-1600, Crucial MX500

My past and current projects: VR Flight Sim: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=dG38Jx (Done!)

A do it all server for educational use: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=vmmNcf (Cancelled)

Replacement of my friend's PC nicknamed Donkey, going from 2nd gen i5 to Zen+ R5: https://pcpartpicker.com/user/nathanpete/saved/#view=WmsW4D (Done!)

initial ampere release will almost 100% be only high end gpus that are in the $600+ range, theyll be OOS for months and wont affect current pricing. no point in waiting for a low-midrange build, and the other parts wont be affected either

topics i need help on:

Spoiler

 

 

my "oops i bought intel right before zen 3 releases" build

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600 (placeholder)

GPU: Gigabyte 980ti Xtreme (also placeholder), deshroud w/ generic 1200rpm 120mm fans x2, stock bios 130% power, no voltage offset: +70 core +400 mem 

Memory: 2x16gb GSkill Trident Z RGB 3600C16, 14-15-30-288@1.45v

Motherboard: Asus ROG Strix X570-E Gaming

Cooler: Noctua NH-D15S w/ white chromax bling
OS Drive: Samsung PM981 1tb (OEM 970 Evo)

Storage Drive: XPG SX8200 Pro 2tb

Backup Storage: Seagate Barracuda Compute 4TB

PSU: Seasonic Prime Ultra Titanium 750W w/ black/white Cablemod extensions
Case: Fractal Design Meshify C Dark (to be replaced with a good case shortly)

basically everything was bought used off of reddit or here, only new component was the case. absolutely nutty deals for some of these parts, ill have to tally it all up once it's "done" :D

If you can, wait for the new hardware to launch. If you can find a P400A for the same price as the P350X then I would chose that instead
