5800X isn't in a great spot, the 2 additional cores over 5600 or 12400 aren't that useful, or if you need moar coars get a 5900X or 12700

Plus it's hard to cool, yet you don't need a D15...

I'd advise for either a 5600, 5700X, or 12400, and a cheaper cooler ($50ish mid range, Intel and AMD stock coolers are usable but still bad)

You could go for a RAM kit that has 3200Mhz as the 5800X and 12400 can only go up to 3200Mhz.

 

One thing that came into my mind would be, take a 500GB m.2 for boot, 1TB for active work and then a 2TB HDD for storage. I don't know how big your projects are on how many you will be working at the same time.

 

And oh boy that monitor is costing twice as much as it would cost me over here.

probably all the components cost much cost in israel.

 

Edit: made a little list with your configuration on pcpartpicker https://il.pcpartpicker.com/list/PDBzFg so anyone can easily make changes and try something maybe

5600x or 12600 is enough for gaming.

you don't need x570 for 5600x, get a b550 for 5600x.

or wait for amd to release 5600x3d (still rumor tho).

 

for GPU, probably best wait, there will be price drops in probably next month, since china already slashing gpu prices up to 38% below MSRP.

3070TI should be around $600. For that money you can get a 3080ti.

The 5800X absolutely can use RAM above 3200 on a motherboard that supports it.

 

OP, as others have already said, going for a 5600X or 12600K would be cheaper, and if going for the 5600X you won't need X570 as B550 is more than enough. Also I'd recommend getting a 750W PSU to have some overhead for the power spikes of that 3070Ti.

Then does the AMD Spec site only says what would be the optimal maximum? I'm just curious as Intel says the same "up to 3200 Mhz"

Both Intel and AMD CPU support "overclocked" memory. That is, memory speeds above the stock speed listed.

From what I've read, that's the guaranteed by warranty speed the CPU will work with.
Most memory speed recommendations I've seen for 5600X/5800X are for 3600MT/s. I've got memory running at 3600 on my 5800X with DOCP (XMP) enabled. If it's disabled the memory defaults to 2133.

First of all, thank you for your responses 😄

I went over your comments and came up with these new specs (12400F over 3800x, I still went with CPU cooler because in here they don't include the stock cooler but took a cheaper one, and changed the storage):

    Price (NIS) Price (USD)
CPU Intel Core i5 12400F 749 217.21
CPU Cooler Noctua NH-U14S 285 82.65
MB GIGABYTE B660M GAMING X DDR4 LGA1700 Intel B660 680 197.2
Memory G.Skill Trident Z Neo 2x8GB DDR4 3600Mhz 440 127.6
Storage Samsung 970 EVO Plus 500GB M.2 315 91.35
Storage Samsung 870 QVO 1TB SATA III SSD 435 126.15
Storage Seagate Barracuda HDD 2TB 230 66.7
Graphics Card Asus TUF Gaming RTX 3070Ti OC 8 GB 3710 1075.9
PSU Corsair RM650 425 123.25
Case Corsair iCue 4000D Airflow 425 123.25
Extra Fans Corsair iCUE SP120 x 2 200 58
       
Monitor Samsung Odyssey G5 26.9" LED VA 1500 435
    9394 2724.26

 

Thoughts? I also saw that on newegg the same GPU would cost me about 700NIS/150USD less, but with no warranty. Does anyone have any experience buying from there?

NH-U14S is a fairly powerful cooler. You could save a bit by getting a less capable model.

 

If you replace the storage with a 2TB NVMe drive like the Teamgroup MP33 Pro, WD SN570, or Intel 660 would you have sufficient storage?
