Would go for a Samsung 980 Pro as your m.2 SSD as it supports the "new" PCIe 4.0 just like your CPU and motherboard. But other than that it looks fine to me.

I'd say you're overspending significantly on your case and motherboard.


As for what to choose - I have no idea; it depends on your priorities really.

Thanks for reading all this by the way!

By the way, my desktop is a docked laptop. Get over it, No seriously, I have an exterrnal monitor, keyboard, mouse, headset, ethernet and cooling fans all connected. Using it feels no different to a desktop, it works for several hours if the power goes out, and disconnecting just a few cables gives me something I can take on the go. There's enough power for all games I play and it even copes with basic (and some not-so-basic) video editing. Give it a go - you might just love it.

@pythonmegapixel wouldn't neccessarily say overspend, cases are taste so if this one is appealing to him than why the heck not. And if he would like to take a look at overclocking then the mobo is fine, too.

Cases aren't just taste - there are also issues of airflow, cable management, drive space, fan space, etc.

A B550 Tomahawk would handle a 5600x just fine. A Samsung 970 Evo is pretty pointless for a Gaming PC - something like a SX 8200 would be a similar choice for cheaper. A 750w PSU would be sufficient, the model is a good one though.

I can only provide my personal opinion.

I am very happy for others to disagree with me, given that it's not my money which is being spent.

 

My personal opinion is that better value could be had by choosing a different case and motherboard.

case isn't great for airflow. get something with a mesh front, like a meshify, p400a digital, bequiet 500dx etc

get the b550 version of the tomahawk.

Makes no sense what so ever to do that for a gaming rig. Huge waste of money as you do not see a difference between a regular sata ssd and the top of the line nvme drives in games.

@jaslion I am quite sure that nobody uses their computer just and anly for gaming so it will be a benefit in some way. Also you do benefit in terms of loading times let's say with GTA V as an example.

This is a gaming and streaming rig so there is literally no usecase specified here that benefits from an nvme drive. Sure you get those half a second launch time improvements sometimes in some programs which still does not justify a purchase like that.

The sx8200 is one of those drives that got "updated" later and now is a mixed bag of will you get the one with the good flash or bad flash so it's on an avoid list now.

Not a fan of that anymore since Adata decided to swap out the controller/Nand for slower variants without informing consumers, so you don't know which version you are getting until you have bought it.

 

A WD Blue SN550 is usually one of the cheaper/decent SSD's for a gaming pc.
