Why a 2 gen old cpu?

[Alireza]

how about getting a 256 GB NVMe ssd with a dram cache instead of a cheap sata ssd???

other components are great

even the gpu is a bit overkill for your games!

[Alireza]

yeah

you might want to go 3th gen as well

You mean Zen 3, I'm assuming. 

The cheapest CPU in that lineup will be $300, so I don't really see the point, especially when a 3600 should do just fine in the games OP mentioned they'll be playing even at reasonably high framerates.

Im suprised that you can fit a 5700xt but is that going to be under 1000 when it includes tax?
