help needed by picking parts

Go to solution Solved by cm992,
  • any atx case, corsair 275R Airflow is good
  • any atx 750 psu, fully modular is a plus, i like evga and corsair here
  • any atx b550 motherbaord, i like asus and msi here
  • a ryzen 3600 with stock cooler (or you could try to get a 5600x but good luck)
  • for ram get 16gb (2x8gb) ddr4 3200mhz cl16 (or 3600mhz if its not too much more)
  • for storage get an m.2 ssd, the 1tb wd black sn750 is good (you could go cheaper if you need to, most motherboards will cover the m.2 ssd with a heat spreader so you don't have to worry about the colour of the ssd)
  • the graphics card will be tough due to shortages, try to snag an rtx3060 or check your local used market and maybe get something there and wait for the new cards to come in stock at decent prices, beware some rtx3060s dont have backplates like the evga xc black, its $60usd more for the backplate version the xc gaming which looks much better imo

 

Budget (including currency): 1500 euro / 1813 dollar

Country: Netherlands

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: gaming

I have a question that you probably get asked a lot: can you list pc parts for me?  I don't have anyone in my area except companies that want to make a lot of profit who understand what kind of pc parts i need this so I thought I would try to reach all of you. I also need a monitor. i especially want to use it for games like: elite dangerous, stormworks, microsoft fligt sim 2020 and maybe f1 2020.
