PC Build Finalizing

[MBlais13]

Budget: CA$1,200 roughly

Country: Canada, ON

Usage: Some games here and there, mostly development programs (blender, photoshop, visual studio), always having tons of programs open at once, and a few VMs.

Other details:

• My current computer (hand down)

  Model: Dell XPS 8700
  CPU: core i7-4790 @3.60 4-cores 8-threads.
  GPU: STRIX RX 460 O46 GAMING
  MEMORY: 16gb ddr3 1600mhz
  MOBO: Dell 0KWVT8

  OS DRIVE: Samsung 970 Evo 500 GB M.2

• I plan on getting a 3060ti or 3070 when they become available.

• I use 2 and sometimes 3 monitors.

 

I would greatly appreciate it if someone could look over my part list before I go ahead and buy everything (planning to buy everything within the month or so).

 

Thanks in advance.

Looks pretty good, I wouldn't spend anywhere close that much on that CPU and the case isn't the best for airflow, one with a mesh front panel would be better.

MSRP for the 5600x is like CA$374 (I could be wrong), so around $60 overpriced. I was looking at the Ryzen 7 5800x since it looks like its not as overpriced but it doesn't come with a stock cooler so I'm not sure its worth the money for me.
