Rate My Build Plan

[burrito123boi]

I went to a video on youtube and found "The Best 700$ Gaming/Streaming PC". Only things I changed were the case, the amount of ram (brand still the same), and I had to pick the graphics card myself. See what you think.

Budget (including currency): 2,000 AUD

Country: Australia

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Minecraft, Fortnite, Rocket League, etc.

Other details: I have a existing parts list. Tell me if I should change something.

you should only get 16GB of RAM and use that money to get a better graphics card or just save the money.

 

Also you can typically buy Windows 10 keys for a few bucks on Amazon which could save you some more money as well.

I would question why 32 GB, but first I must question why 2 sets of 16GB. Scratch one kit and get the 5700XT. Otherwise solidly overbuilt PC for the games you play....Just the way I like it. What about the monitor?

[boggy77]

better motherboard, better ram, better storage, much better gpu.

you were overspending on psu and the gpu you picked is entry level.

for $2000, this will be much much better.

I would take 16gb of good 3200MHZ RAM

double rank modules, so you gain the same 4 slot amd advantage 

hdd 7200rpm, no compromize on this please

 

to be honest, doesn't seems to be an overall weighted starting point... for a 2000 budget I agree with the other guys, you have to expect more an better

ur gpu is very weak for a $2000 build. it can handle 1080p gaming, but just barely.
