First Pc Build Is It Worth The Money For This Build?

[CRAZYCOOL_OwO]

Budget (including currency): $1,100

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: A mid range gaming experience

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I've already chosen my build only things that I need to decide on is a monitor and if the parts are worth my money and will work well together.

That looks like an extremely balanced configuration and from what I can see all those parts should work together just fine.

the parts will work fine together, but you could swap out a few parts for cheaper alternatives, and have enough room for a better gpu.

I will most likely update the gpu later.

Yeah it looks like a great build. I wouldn't swap out anything unless it's for an equal part that also happens to cost less.

without knowing the resolution and games you wish the play, hard to know. rtx 3060 will likely be reasonably within budget, but very little info has been released so far. an rtx 2060 or 2070 (a bit pricier) would be great. but if you are going to be playing at 1080p, the 1660ti would be fine imo, probably fine for 1440p depending on the refresh rate and graphics settings.

I'm looking for a 144hz monitor so I think I'll stick with the 1660 ti for now but later down the road I will most likely upgrade.

Thank you for your advice it's much appreciated.

For your budget I feel like you're overpaying on multiple components. You can get a very good gaming experience with a 2070 Super / 5700XT type card at that budget, like this.

Suddenly you get 43% more GPU performance in 1080p (by Techpowerup's numbers) and 54% more in 4K, doudle the NVMe storage and similar components overall. If you choose an AIO you should know that at this budget it decreases your gaming experience by that much.

 

If you want to go team Green, the 2070 Super is the only worthwhile alternative imo, though it's $550 instead of $380

 

Edit: Corsair recently released a better airflow case if you're interested. https://pcpartpicker.com/product/WBVG3C/corsair-4000d-airflow-atx-mid-tower-case-cc-9011201-ww
