First time building a PC

[P1xelg4mer]

Budget (including currency): Around 2000€

Country: Germany

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: A lot of different games + planning to play some vr

Other details (existing parts lists, whether any peripherals are needed, what you're upgrading from, when you're going to buy, what resolution and refresh rate you want to play at, etc): I am playing on an old PC with a GTX 1060 and an i5-4440. I am saving up some money until the end of year to get a new rig.

 

Thank you for reading my post!

 

To cut the story short: I am new to building a PC and need some feedback.

 

Here is what i cooked up today on PartPicker: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/KbgkMv

 

I did not put storage in yet, but i plan to buy an ssd to put on my motherboard and have some drives flying around.

I have the money for the gpu and i set up notifications once they are back in stock in germany again.

Good list but d15 is completely uneccesary here cause i bet like most newbies you wont oc so best go with something like a fuma 2, dark rock 4, or nh u12s cause its pointless spending that much on a cooler if you arent gonna overclock

Actually other than the cooler its a really good build

 

Didnt overspend on useless garbage like rgb

Good psu choice

Good ram choice

 

Im not sure if the case has good airflow or not, maybe go for a mesh case like p400a

[P1xelg4mer]

The airflow front to back should be good. I just heard that the bottom intake is not the best. I still have some time until i can afford it, so i am going to check out some cases. Thank you for your help!

Not really. You still need a good cooling solution. Only reason not to get the D15 is the price as there are cheaper alternatives. Also manual overclocking isn't worth it. You are better just enabling pbo2 and let it do it's own thing.

What cooler would you recommend as an alternative to the d15?
