pc upgrade to ryzen from intel

jamiegrujic1001 · September 8, 2020

So im looking at upgrading to a ryzen 7 3700x and an asus strix B450-F MB.This would be used with a corsair h115i pro aio cooler. then corsair vengence ddr4 at 3000mhz and a fxf 5700xt gpu. all powered with a corsair cx550w psu(no clue if it will be fine or not). the pc is going to be used for gaming, casual streaming on youtube and music recording. I am currently having trouble with grounding with my pc, so static is coming through my studio monitors(thought both 3.5mm jacks and firewire). and running my interface via a pcie firewire card. so any feedback would be appreciated

I wouldn't get this board unless it's well under $100. Get the MSI B550 Pro VDH WiFi or MSI B550 Bazooka instead.

Try arranging your budget differently like getting a 3600 and a better motherboard. The rest is fine the PSU and RAM are decent but i would wait for the new GPUs to get released.
