I would go with a ryzen five tbh but everything else seems ok but honestly your games you want to play your pc seems a bit overkill for bc like Minecraft can run on pentium and Celeron and like honestly ryzen five would be the best in the long run but I would honestly get a ryzen 3 and a slight cheaper gpu imo but it is your build and like the only thing I would for sure do is a ryzen 5 (btw I used to play all those games on core 2 duo with 4 gb ram last year and it was an ok experience )

Better build, like yours does not include GPU price.

-Overpriced AIO

-Overkill RAM

-Slow SSD for price

-Mediocre case

-Why get an RM750 when the Erenmax D.F Revolution is $5 more and is 850W??

He doesn't need 850W and Corsair RM is way better quality.

 

Great case.

 

Less overpriced then a Z73 and it fits the theme.

 

SSD Speed does not matter for gaming.

 

RAM is 3600Mhz, which is exactly 2:1 to the AMD Infinity Fabric, like you should have.

The RM is not better quality, where are you getting that from? And if the 850W is the same price, why not get that?

The P360A exists, very little reason to get this.

The Arctic Freezer II 360 (or 280) is much cheaper and better thermally than the X73. 
I would still advise an SSD with DRAM Cache with such a high end build like this. Especially when it’s only $4 - $10 more.

3200MHZ is fine. 3600 only gives a 3 - 4% boost in gaming, and that’s if it’s CL16. 3200MHZ CL14 is faster then 3600 CL16. 
Also a 3600 CL16 kit should be less than 100. Not 110.

You literally said that its $5 more - also you might not believe me so I'm telling OP: Corsair RM power supplies are tried and tested, and you should never, ever, skimp on your power supply - because having a bad one can fry all of your components.

 

For the RAM - fine, they are both equal. Its 110 USD cause I wanted to make it RGB like he had in his build.

 

For the cooler I wanted to stick with a NZXT one like he previously had with RGB / Screen.

 

When you have a $2000 budget you can afford to have a nicer Corsair quality case.

???? And so are the D.F Revolutions? The D.F Revolution is an awesome power supply and you are not “skimping out“ if you get one. I’m no PSU expert but the fact that you don’t know what the D.F Revolution is concerns me.
 

Unless you need the RGB, there is no reason to stick with NZXT. The Freezer is much better in terms of value and performance, I would much rather get that over some RGB I will look at every once in a while. 
 

The 275R is a budget oriented case now, and the P360A is much better quality anyway. It has

-RGB 

-Mesh

-2 120mm fans

its a much better case than the 275R.

The Corsair RM and Enermax Revolution are both made by the same Company (Channel Well Technology).

ok so just to clear this up. while RM and D.F are both great psus D.F is the better one. 

 

Also @Downkey Great build! but sure oyu cnt get a 1TBSSd there? Like this:

Mushkin pilot-E. Currently well priced and underrated SSD that is simialr to samsung 970 evo

Hey so this is what a changed does this look a little better. I decided that I can upgrade later and get more rgb that was I didn't get the P360A but the case might change because I do like the P360A. I want to stick with the NZXT Cooler just because it looks cool uhhhh yeah and 850w is where I feel more comfortable running a 3070. So yeah please anything else that Im over paying for other that the cpu cooler do tell.

You dont even need the AIO. Spending $270 for something not needed isnt a good idea.
Also you went with the non airflow version of the 4000D, which is terrible.
