Hi everyone

I've put together some stuff that I'm pretty happy with but I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on how to fine tune it or make it better if it needs it

Also do I need the cpu cooler or is the one that comes with the cpu fine and do the parts come with the cables they need or do I need to buy them separately and if so what cables do I need?

Thanks

Why get a motherboard and a wifi adapter? Just pay the same increase in price for a motherboard that has built in wifi/bluetooth. 

Very little storage for realistic use. 500GB boot will be full before you know it making you need a 2nd drive and I'd hate to waste my life away waiting around for a HDD to load games, software and so on.

Case allows for 140mm fans. Going 120mm only is a slight missed opportunity getting just that little bit more airflow at no real extra cost.

Desktop: Ryzen 7 5800X3D - Kraken X62 Rev 2 - STRIX X470-I - 3600MHz 32GB Kingston Fury - 250GB 970 Evo boot - 2x 500GB 860 Evo - 1TB P3 - 4TB HDD - RX6800 - RMx 750 W 80+ Gold - Manta - Silent Wings Pro 4's enjoyer

Setup: Zowie XL2740 27.0" 240hz - Roccat Burt Pro - Corsair K70 LUX browns - PC38X - Mackie CR5X's -

Personally, I would check Gigabyte's support page for your board for QVL memory compatibility with Vermeer-class CPUs. Sometimes you can get away with ignoring QVL and sometimes it can have a pretty big impact.
I also would opt for a board that has a wifi chipset on it. It doesn't hurt to have redundancy. A computer I (used to) have would have random latency spikes into the 17,000 range due to a Wireless Network Adapter that wasn't getting updates anymore.

Very useless comment. Maybe switch out the SSD with a higher capacity one, and get a smaller HDD. The rest of the build seems good.

Alright I've taken into account everything that people have said and changed a couple of things

Back to my first post, do I need to buy cables or do the parts come with the cables they need?

Errm are you in Australia or USA ??

Anyway

- The arctic 34 is overpriced, get a DeepCool AK400 for half the price

- $100 in case fans for a $1500 rig is kinda absurd, get a cheap 3 or 5-pack for max $40

Yeah I'm in Australia I'm going for a white build so that's why I'm going for that cpu cooler and fans but if you can find some good white fans that would be great

you can get away with a 600W PSU for a Ryzen 5600 and RTX 3060 unless you plan to upgrade down the road (like a year or two later).

 

I switched a Vega 56 to an RTX 3060, not only it draws less power it's also faster. Who knows what we'll get in the future, but it'll likely be still far away to think about right now.

If you found my answer to your post helpful, be sure to react or mark it as solution 😄

There's still really space for savings ($1640 total !)

I chose a better and faster AMD card, cheaper mobo cooler SSD PSU and fans, for same performance

You don't really need a 750W PSU, a good 650W will be enough (CPU 100W, GPU 300W, rest 100W max)

Your board is still overkill/overpriced, that's money that won't give you any noticeable performance vs say a good B550 that costs $200, so cost is back to more than $2100 ...

Fot the GPU if you can spend $900 rather get a 6800XT it's quite better

Good yet you overspent on cooling,  $150 to cool a 65W $200 chip ??

The Corsair case comes with 2 RGB fans, you should add one same, plus one non RGB Arctic p14 back, and that's all

And the Freezer 34 is overpriced, the AK400 costs half of that and will perform ok as well

With the savings you can then upgrade your GPU to a 3070ti, that will make some difference !

you do know you can reuse parts right, just because the cpu isn't super high end doesn't mean that I can't future proof for when I want a better cpu
