thoughts on new build

Budget (including currency): $1,000 to $1,200 usd

Country: usa

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: gaming, vr gaming, daw's, 3d modeling, digital artwork 

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): 

I'm looking to build me a new computer here soon and was wanting to get some opinions on if the setup i have planed will handle everything fine

There is no GPU listed as i will be reusing my xfx rx 480's that i have in my current build

The hdd will just be for mass storage of 3d designs and music as i also have a 500gb ssd that i will be using from my current build for games and programs

A CPU known for efficiency does not need a cooler this big. It is cheap, but still waste of money.

I would recommend something like this. The upgraded CPU will benefit your 3d modelling. Also, the 360mm AIO is unnecessary for this CPU. So i would go with an air cooler like the dark rock 4 or if you are set on a water cooler, then a 240mm one will be plenty.

I should be pointed out that none of these will work without a gpu.  They’re kind of hard to get right now.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

i didn't notice best buy had a 5600x for 299 or i would have selected that to begin with thank you for the suggestion i have never had a water cooled setup so i was unsure how big of a AIO i would need but yes i would like to stay water cooled so i will look at 240mm thank you for the info on it

would it be better if it was 3600 or is the timing the issue of it being slow

Then there's the problem with size and weight. I recommend ITX systems if you're going to move it around.

Even if you're sticking to ATX. better get a lighter case. 5000D weighs nearly 14kg, while also ATX 275R weighs just over 10kg. Meanwhile the mATX Corsair 280R weighs 7.1kg and mITX Lian Li TU150 at 3.6kg (though other cases come with 2 fans and Lian Li doesnt come with any). A smaller motherboard also weighs less.

Also preferably no liquid cooler, there are cases where the AIO starts leaking after being moved around a couple of times.

Then a higher efficiency PSU is still recommended (so 80+ Gold). Maybe a higher tier unit too.

Frequency here, but ofc you shouldn't ignore timings either. Keep CAS latency on or below 1/200 (So 18 for 3600MHz) would be good while keeping prices in check.

That may let out all the b450 and b550 options then.  Iirc only x570 has crossfire capability for ryzen.  Might not apply for Nvidia stuff.  Needs to be checked though

ok i might wait on the psu then as i have a EVGA bq 750w 80+ bronze right now and save for a new gpu and psu when the gpu's are more readily available and put what i have towards better parts

? Could be SLI.  My memory is AMD has crossfire and Nvidia has SLI and they behave very similarly but not always exactly alike.  B450 and 550 is supposed to have a problem with at least one of them that was one of the baked in limitations designed to make x570 appealing. It became a semi-non issue because multiple video cards were on the way out anyway so b450 was considered a good board for gaming anyway in spite of that limitation.  The issue here though is the OP has multiple video cards he wants to use even though very few new games support it any more.  So it becomes pertinent.

 

Theres a bunch of stuff I don’t know.  I don’t know if the 480 is AMD or Nvidia, I don’t know exactly how the b450/b550 limitation works or if it even applies to whichever brand of card.

the rx 480 is AMD i will run a single card if it gets me better performance i don't have crossfire turned on all the time so dropping down to a single card is not a problem for me

Makes sense.  There are fewer and fewer games that can make use of it anyway.   It will be only one card at all on the b450 and b550 I think though.

I would do this, also more left to get Windows and additional drives for storage. 🙂

May not need the hyper212.  Not sure.  My memory is that the 5600 comes with a stock cooler.  It the only 5000 series cpu that does.  I don’t know which one though.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.

Even if it comes with one, having a after market one increase Cinebench scores in multi-threaded.

Could.  Depends on how much which depends on which cooler they box with it. If it’s a wraith I tend to agree with you.  If it’s a Max though it gets more complicated.

Not a pro, not even very good.  I’m just old and have time currently.  Assuming I know a lot about computers can be a mistake.
