Budget (including currency): ~$2000 USD 

Country: United states

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Streaming VR Rocket league Rainbow Six ect

Other details Since the new CPUs and GPUs are so hard to get hands on at MSRP I decided to order a computer on CyberPowerPC but I had to go with the 3070 because 6800xt is not out yet and the 3080 had a $400+ up charge so the build I was able to get is this

Keep in mind some of these things dont make sense I already have a Noctua DH-15 so I wont need the fan I also dont need an OS I also will probably upgrade the RAM I just didnt like the options they gave me. So the question is does anything stick out as a red flag? Also if say I were to get my hands on a 6800XT at launch do I just cancel the order and wait till I can get the 5900X? Also if I cancel can I get some build suggestions around $2000 budget I ONLY care about performance I don't need RGB unless it is just because that was the best option for performance.

Get a better CPU cooler, that Gammaxx 400 is only for Ryzen 5's, it's not going to beat for example a Dark Rock Pro 4. Thermal paste? Get an Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste. Also, maybe get more case fans and extension cables if you want good looks. Everything else is okay.

Yes as I was saying I have a DH-15 and the case fans I will buy aftermarket I dont like the idea of not building the computer my self because I know they will try to squeeze money out of it.

Remember to quote posts so people can see your reply.

 

Also you can do much better with a $2000 budget such as this.

PS the 3700x is a place holder for a Ryzen 9 5900x.

I did not add a cooler since you have a NH-D15

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @ me @Prodigy_Smit for me to see your replies.

A good psu is important for longevity.

 

Also, it is not uncommon for build configurators to have less than stellar inventory data. You may want to make certain that the configuration you want is in stock and not subject to delay.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

Hmm good to know. The expected ship date is december 1st but if I can get my hands on the 5900x or 6800xt before then I am cancelling my order mainly because if I have the cpu i can build the computer with my old 1070 till i can get the gpu and if i have the gpu i can probably plug it in to my current build until cpu is available. Also I feel like going full tower is a good option because the computer I have now is pretty tight and it would be not only easier to work in but also more likely to be able to fit all the parts without having to do more research if this is a bad idea let me know also can i get any good full tower suggestions(performance).
