New Pc Build

[WhosIzaiah]

Hey I want to start streaming and was working on a new build that I want to start on. My main questions are what components are recommended to change and which are good to keep. I will provide a link to the Pcpartpicker if it helps.

Hi there, it all looks pretty good honestly! There are only a few minor things that could improve your build, if you have the budget for it.

 

1. The RAM could be changed out to a quad channel kit (4 sticks of 8GBs) to improve performance, unless you've chosen dual channel so there's breathing room to upgrade to 64GB total in the future?

2. The M.2 SSD is good for the price, but if you can afford a faster one then it's definitely worth looking into, although, again not a deal breaker whatsoever!

3. I'm sure the PSU you've picked is fine, but 80+ Gold is something to consider.

 

Like I said the list you have is perfectly fine, but those three areas would be the only 'improvements' I can think of. Hope that helps!

You shouldn't post if you don't know anything about a PC - Consumer Chip Platforms (AM4, LGA1200) have 2 Channels of memory each supporting up to 2 DIMMs (Sticks), hence, you gain no extra performance from a 4 DIMM instead of 2 DIMM kit.

 

For the builder:

 

Strix X570-E isn't worth it. Get a B550 Plus TUF Gaming from Asus instead.

 

Would probably get a ROG Strix White card instead of the Vision lineup.

 

For the case, now that you don't need EATX get the 4000X RGB, practically same case but ATX. Also get an extra fan for the back

Well okay, my bad, but there's really no need to be so rude...

Sorry, but I wanted to make sure he understood.

 

Anyways, there is no benefit with 4 DIMMs except a bit more XMP.

Don't go bronze on this CPU / GPU Combo.

 

The 3070 does actually spike power draw so go for a quality 750w EVGA, Seasonic and corsair all have options!

Do you think the Corsair RMx White (2018) 750 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply would be good or do you have a specific recommendation? Also I'm going for a white power supply to go with the case.

EVGA's PSUs are more miss than hit, and they release too many to actually keep up with and Seasonic's focus platform can't actually keep up with said power draw pikes.

Happy to help.

 

This should be better for the same price (all white)
