$40 overbudget. Went with a 5800x because it is still managble in the budget and will give you huge performance gains in Valorant. (Zen 3 in Valorant is amazing)

if you don't need wifi then you can go with the B550M-ITX for $130. Still a good board and will put you underbudget.

Budget (including currency): $1500 USD (I can go slightly over)

Country: USA

Games, programs or workloads: Valorant (Streaming, Gaming, 3-4 Tabs, Discord), Video Editing, CAD

Spoiler

 AMD Ryzen 7 5800X, ARCTIC Liquid Freezer II 280, ASRock B550M-ITX/ac, Corsair Vengeance LPX 32 GB 3600 CL18, Western Digital SN750 500 GB, Cooler Master MasterBox NR200,  SeaSonic FOCUS SGX 650 W 80+ Gold,   3x Noctua P12 redux-1700 PWM, Gigabyte M27Q 27.0" 2560x1440 170 Hz

THIS IS NOT A DREAM BUILD, Still Saving Up Money

I plan on getting any $400-500 GPU I can get (Not Included with total price) I might get 16gb of ram, so I can spend more on GPU.

Is this a good plan? Are any parts too over powered, or too budget? Thank You!

Thanks for the response, I'm fine with the $40 over, but is the ASRock B550M-ITX reliable? Also do I need 32gb of ram, what's your opinion on 32?

The B550M ITX is a pretty decent board for the price, it has ok VRMS. 


32GB of RAM is a bit overkill but if you are streaming actively it may be worth the extra money

TBH I really like the Mobo, but I also really want to upgrade storage with another m.2... so I think I am going to find another cheap one and just save up more money. Thanks for the help I appreciate it!
