New PC

[AvocadoDude1]

This is a system I set up in PcPartPicker. Don't be afraid to criticize It's my first system I've ever thought about building. I am planning on playing Minecraft, Rocket League, and some other games along with recording and occasionally streaming while playing. Would these specs work fine for what I want to do with it? My budget is somewhere around $1500 USD and right now it floats just around there.

Rubbish case go for p300a or p400a instead cause better airflow

 

Psu could be improved, go for a msi mpg or revolution df

 

If you are ocing a dark rock pro 4 or nh d15 would be a better buy cause they will demolish that aio, aios are only justified if you are doing an sff build or dont have the space near the cpu socket, otherwise go for a chonky and extra thiccc air cooler

 

I dont think you need 32gb ram unless you are using ram hungry programs, ram itself is not the best value, there are also better value rgb rams but hey atleast you didnt go for those incredibly overpriced corsair rgb rams

 

Since you dont have any pcie 4.0 ssds, x570 isnt neccesary, go for a b550 tomahawk instead

 

Other than a few questionable choices its actually decent for a first timer

 

Btw are you gonna do any overclocking or atleast auto overclock?

I'd rather not overclock.

Another mediocre pcpartpicker list by me .-.

 

10900f cause you stream

 

Decent budget z490 just to make sure the board vrms arent gonna be on fire trying to power this nuclear reactor xD

 

Cooler may seem weak but to compensate for that you can set the 10900f in the bios to run at 4.8ghz with 1.25v or less, you may want to get the 10850k for better undervolting so instead if 1.25v you can do 1.2v or less cause of the better silicon found in the k cpus

 

P300a cause its a decent mesh case for cheap

 

Gpu is up to you

 

If you have some leftover budget upgrade the cpu to a 10850k or spend a little on asthetics cause i yeeted asthetics as usual xD

Could I use the NZXT X53 AIO instead of the be quiet! heatsink and still have somewhat the same performance?

You want looks or do you want a good graphics card?

 

A 240mm aio is rubbish, just go straight to 360mm aio like liquid freezer 360

 

If you really want an aio that badly then you are gonna have to go overbudget or downgrade something like the gpu

 

Srry but with this config its really stretching your budget for maximum bang for buck

he's still gonna need an iGPU unless he can find a GPU at non-scalper prices.

In that case go 10850k

 

Plus youll get the better silicon as an added bonus so youll be able to undervolt better
