How much are you getting this GPU for?

 

Overall good system though, if working on it a lot, make sure to save a bit up for a storage upgrade after a while. Not needed but just something to think about.

You can actually run up to a 3070 with the specs you have plus some overclocking on a 650w PSU. It'd be worth seing if you can save some money, otherwise that is like the most middle ground PC i have seen and I like it. 

I also am curious hw much you are spending on the 2060. And remember a 2060 is very different than a 2060 super.

 

EDIT: I know the 4000D says it can fit a 280mm rad in the top, but with some Motherboards it is really tight. I built mine with a 240 and it fit very easily. Just something to think about. A 240mm would be plenty for a 5600x.

I'm getting the gpu for 600 usd. I will check on upgrading the storage later on.

I will chage the rad size to 240mm.

If you think that a 650W is enough i'll check if i find a cheaper 650W.

U can get 6600XT for that price.

650W is enough.

And if you aren't going for aesthetics, good air cooler will be absolutely enough too.

Please consider taking your time to get a better gpu at MSRP. You should not pay more than $300 for a 2060, and than is an absolute max.

It takes time, but it is possible. Check out Falcodrin on Twitch. He has a bot that sends links to MSRP cards in chat. Best Buy being the most popular one as they drop a big stack of card nearly every 2 weeks. I have a gotten a 3090, 3070, and 5900x this way. (The 5900x was closer to release)

Are you sure? 

It shows as stock on PCPartPicker. I made list for you.

P.S. if you don't want RGB, Change RGB parts to same non RGB models.

Same AIO, Same RAMs, Same case (4000D) but non RGB. That's it.

would she not want a new laptop anyways at that point? (depending on what she is daily driving offcourse)

might be worth looking at if a good batterylife gaminglaptop would be a better choice if she needs a daily driver aswell as a laptop. 

it depends, but a Legion 5 + smaller powerbrick may be worth a look.

If you use a discord server like this one: https://discord.com/invite/gpu you have a better chance of finding a 6600 XT. I got one off of this server for about 500 USD.

The motherboard doesn't support 3600MHz speed RAM but idk if in the BIOS it will let you overclock so then it can. On the microcenter (idk if u know what that is) pc builder website it says that this mobo will support up to 3000MHz but nothing about overclocking it so idk i would play it safe and try for a mobo that you know ownt bottleneck the RAM
