Budget (including currency): $1300-$2000 (I still have to make the money, so the budget is very flexible)

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: VR Gaming, some other gaming, CAD, Blendering, Machine Learning

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 pretty into aesthetics, and I probably could have saved a good $100 on not going with expensive iCUE integrated products, but they just look so good. 

I set the GPU price to MSRP because I might get a FE and prices are not really reasonable right now.

For some reason PCP isn’t loading for me (Pain)

But drop the overkill AIO, get a 5800x and a air cooler (like the Scythe Fuma 2), get a Kingston A2000 or WD SN550 for the SSD, then get a cheaper case like the P400A Digital, and get a cheaper PSU like ernemax Revolution, and then with the money saved put a 3070 😄

 

sorry for no PcPartPicker list, it’s not loading for me, or it’s down

Yes. This is basically what I was thinking

probably. Try opening it in incognito or something, that’s odd.

I’m using a school device rn, that may be why. But it’s only the US PCP, I tried loading the U.K and it works fine

Machine Learning

Are you going for serious ML, or just some toy projects to learn? If the former, then 16gb is far from enough for most decent datasets, and a regular 3060 would do better than a 3060ti due to the extra vram.

I would drop the aio and get a cheaper case, but I really really like the Corsair light-loop fans, and getting a cheap case and LLs as well would cost more. I know that it is probably illogical, but as I said, I really care about aesthetics. Should I still spend the extra money for a 5800x and 3070? Thanks for the advice!

@igormp Just some toy projects.

Then you're fine as long as you stick with a nvidia gpu
