Finnally building my first PC

[Hirofine]

Hi Everyone,

New here, long time follower of the channels.
I am finally done with studies and started a job few month ago and have saved a bit of money for finally make my own build.

I have already made a pcpartpicker list of what I think might be nice and in my budget, feel free to guide me.
I have nothing to scrap from my previous set up except peripherals since I am on a laptop and it will be reused by someone else.

The look isn't that important for me, mostly because given the disposition of my desk, the glass panel will be against a wall, but I tried a black theme nonetheless in case of a setup change in the future.

 

Budget (including currency): 1500-1600 €

Country: France, but can buy also from Germany

Games, programs or workloads that it will be used for: Heavily modded Minecraft, Warframe, some AAA games, software dev

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): 

Upgrading from a laptop, where I will get the SSD but I still need another one to replace in the laptop so it can be reused by my gf, so let's consider 1 TB of storage as SSD required

I already have some peripherals including one screen, peripheral upgrade is planned for spring where the plan is to buy a second screen and new keyboard and mice.

Thanks for the help

Salut

Can get a much better gaming CPU and a better GPU by avoiding overpriced cooler and board

A beefier PSU is nice as well

A bit over 1500EUR, same price in Germany overall, but you can save a bit by getting some parts here and there (CPU from Germany, GPU from France etc)

Thanks it helps a lot, I'll check in details this evening

Depending on what software dev you are doing, you might want support for CUDA (then you want a Nvidia GPU), or you are interested in more multi threaded performance, rather than raw gaming performance. If the latter is the case, you could go for a 5900X instead of a 5800X3D. If you just do it a bit for school, then it won't be necessary though.

 

Have fun building your first PC
