Hey everyone, I'm a bit of a noob at pc building but I understand the basics. My pc is literally about to die and I want to know if my setup will support gaming at integrated graphics without any problems until I get a GPU at a retail price. Feel free to recommend me any changes to my build but I don't want to go over my budget :).

 

This is my build: 

 

Intel Core i9-9900K 3.6 GHz 8-Core Processor

NZXT Kraken X53 RGB 52.44 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler

MSI MPG Z390 GAMING EDGE AC ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

NZXT H510 Elite ATX Mid Tower Case

Corsair RM (2019) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

It'll probably run the games, but you won't be getting those sorts of frame rates at any sort of decent quality without a dGPU.

Switch to a 10700k since it is on a newer platform, it’s around the same price

You can expect to only be able to game mostly in 720p, though in some light games you can reach 1080p 60

I already got my CPU for a decent price at microcenter ($249).

I suggest going with The Asus Rog strix 3070 white or black oc edition and Micro Center I think is in stock for $800 I know its $800 which is like $200 off of the retail but yea.

-Change the AIO. An Arctic Freezer 280 or 360 would perform better for the same price

-Just go with a normal 970 evo

-Change the case, the H510 is pretty crap

 

geometry is hard
b550 > x570

That case probably has better airflow but I already bought it lol.

That was a great recommendation but why not order the P360A and then swap everything over to that case and return the H510. It's a really bad case for airflow and will become a hot box/furnace quickly with high performance components.

I knew the case was super bad for airflow but I literally got it for the aesthetics. I would rather sacrifice a fair amount of airflow over looks.

If you want to thermal throttle and lose performance on the table then, just know it won't be great.
