buildingpc New to PC building, thoughts about current builds?

Mr.Dutch · June 16, 2021

Budget (including currency): My budget isn't really there i'm rn hoping to stay below 16-1700 Euro (if i could Below 1500 but that's not a biggie just an extra don't want to be a cheapskate)

Country: Netherlands

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: VR, Arma 3, Newer games like sons of the forest and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2, Server hosting

Other details I have made 2 build and i was wondering what your guys thoughts are on both. I'ts my first time building a pc and I did watch a lot of video's but it's always better to have more views on the build. I first made an AMD build. But i'm actually more of a Intel person so my second build is an Intel. For now i put a 2060 on the build but i'm gonna buy a GPU last to see if the prices get better in order to maybe get a 30 series in a few months.

Intel: https://nl.pcpartpicker.com/list/qX6Pp2

Thanks a lot for the help in advance.

Not checked on GPU prices recently, but i know when the 30 series released it was much cheaper than the 20 series, so if thats still the case have a look at the 30 series instead much better performance than the 20 series also for the Ryzen CPU here's a link for you to decide what the best chip set is for your needs, shows graphs on how the PCIe lanes work and everything https://www.gamersnexus.net/guides/3582-amd-chipset-differences-b550-vs-x570-b450-x470-zen-3 in reguards to ram ryzen is real picky drop the speen down from 3600 to 3200 to be on the safe side. id probs drop the 2tb space for a 128gb M.2 for a boot drive then have like a 1tb or 1.5tb ssd or m.2 for storage space. just my opinion.

Thanks for the advice. i indeed also want a 30 series in it eventually for now i put it in there just to get a hunch of the price when the 30 series drops. Right now the 3060 is over the 800 euro here. So it'll skyrocket the price of the pc.
Thanks about the SSD i'll take a look on it. I appreciate the comment
