Hi, im planning on building a new gaming pc, I have done som research and come up with this specs:

 

CPU: Ryzen 7 3700x

Motherboard: Asus ROG SRIX B550-f (wi-fi)

RAM: Corsair vengense RGB Pro SL 2x 16 GB 3600MHz

Storage: Samsung 970 Evo 1 TB M.2-2280

GPU: AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT 8 GB

Case: Phanteks Eclipse P300A

Power supply: Corsair RM (2019) 750W

 

totally about 1670 USD

 

I am going to use the computer for gaming and games as COD Warzone but also school work. I want it to be good for the future so i don't need to upgrade anything pretty soon. I want to be able to play warzone at 144 fps 1080p at medium-high settings

currently I am using only one monitor but I am probably going to buy one more in the future, my current monitor is at 1080p 144hz.

 

Should i change something or is it good as it is?

Do you have a PCPartPicker list that breaks down the costs per component??? Most likely, the GPU is taking up at least 1/2 of your total.

I personally find that ram to be overpriced, especially DDR4-3600 at CL18 timings. 

 

On a side note, what is up with the Samsung prices lately??? These prices are similar to when I purchased that exact SSD back in Feb.2019...

 

Don't see the need for ~$200 motherboard, use the extra money to allocate for an aftermarket CPU cooler. 

 

Due to the current graphics card supply shortage, that is to be expected unfortunately. I personally don't find it to be worth it for that card.

Which motherboard do you recommend then?

I'm sorry, didn't realize that's the price for a B550 motherboard so then that's ok. Most likely due to improvements over B450 motherboards (which are cheaper). Asus does sell a board similar to this one without Wi-FI, but that is completely up to you whether you want Wi-Fi or not.

So I should find a better RAM, by a CPU cooler and wait for the GPU prices to sink.

Thanks a lot for the help :)

I would go with @SupaKomputas list to be honest. You'll still have the same case and its pretty appealing for the price.
