Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for:

Gaming, ~60FPS. I'd like to play FH5, Control (with RTX), RDR2.

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): 

Monitors: I've got 1 4K monitor and 1 1080p ultra-wide.

Looks good except maybe the CPU.

 

How do prices for a Ryzen 5 5600 (non X nor G) or a Core i5 12400 (with a B660 motherboard) compare to the 5600G that you selected?

[Omar.B]

Cheaper build but also better 

[venomtail]

U don't need an APU CPU is you're getting a GPU.

Have at a look at 6800XT. They should cost the same as 3070ti but get like 10-40 more fps.

Weren't those MAG AIO's recalled? Swap it for something more reliable if that's true.

How are we meant to see your private carts?

[1a8e]

R5 5600 is 19450INR or 245.28USD
i5 12400 is 20320INR or 256.26USD [Although the sellers for this seem dicey.]
i5 12400F is 16400INR or 206.82USD
MSI PRO B660M-A WiFi DDR4 MATX is 16045 INR or 202.34USD.
Though I'm not sure what the implications of MATX are...

I've been a laptop user so having a iGPU just sounds nice... I can skip it though.

Cheapest 6800XT I can find was 1563 USD lol

I'll search more on the MAG AIO thanks!

Looks like 12400F will be the way to go, then (or the 12400 if you have the budget and really want the iGPU).

 

mATX vs ATX tends to have fewer PCIe slots and that's about it. A lot of the time the extra slots you get on ATX boards have shared bandwidth with M.2 or SATA etc, so you can't even use them all anyway. So unless you have specific PCIe expansion needs for a soundcard or something else, there is no downside going mATX. There are some mATX boards that utilize every possible cost savings measure and are very striped down and low end, but the one you chose is not one of those.

Thanks a lot for sharing!

I can consider 5600x...
I'm not sure about deepcool, have heard very mixed reviews
motherboard has no wifi...
ram: I've used Kingston before
gpu: i'm not sure about the brand man...
Storage: I just want the 6600MB/s for fun
case: again never heard of the brand
psu is same

12400F sounds good.

And thanks for explaining the mATX difference. Helps a lot.
I'm thinking with the planned AMD socket change going the Intel route may be more future proof anyway.

So looks like v1 of the MAG AIO was the issue and the v2 fixes the sediment problem.
Thanks for the info!

Its good not that bad better than stock cooler, you can still go with the one you provided

I didn't know you looking for wifi one, you can go with the one you provided or with a cheaper one like MSI mortor

both are pretty good

Out of the box the GPU temps was around 69-70C on the Inno3D RTX 3070 Ti X3 OC dual slot graphics card, while when overclocked with the fans at 100% the GPU temps come down to an impressive 57C, you can still put it on 60% (the fan speed) and without overclocking

you can do that or you can add more storage just for your needs

Phanteks is actually really known brand and for cooling since its really good and reliable I dont know how come you never heard of it

yeah since its a really good one at a price

INNO3D 3070ti isn't an impressive 3070ti card but it is an impressive 2 slot 3070ti card.

Since I would also recommend you the Phanteks case (famous brand) there's no reason to limit yourself to a 2 slot cards. That's only a worry for mini ITX cases.

Thanks for the case info, I somehow did not hear about them!
Also, thanks for highlighting the 2 vs 3 slot card difference, wasn't aware!
