Need little help picking parts for new build

[Senbutsu]

Need a little help building new pc, old one broke and was about 10 years old so gonna be a big upgrade. Picked out some parts that should be compatible. If my pick of parts bad suggestions for other parts would be much appreciated.

btw the case is the fractal design focus 2

 budget ~1800-2000aus

Nice pick, but since you're using AM4 platform (Mobo B550 and Ryzen 5700X), I would suggest you to purchase DDR4 RAM instead of current DDR5 on your cart

Since this DDR5 RAM is compatible to the latest AM5 platform only

 

P.S.

If you still have a budget, upgrade your CPU of choice from 5700X to 5800X3D is not a bad choice, since it is the best AM4 CPU on the market (X3D will noticeably improve the low 0,1% FPS performance)

I can suggest you to choose a DC-to-DC PSU, my PC is reborn since when I put one in it.

They are more efficient, less noisy, less prone to power spikes (when the power suddenly goes down and up to be clear).

I have an ITek BD 700, semi-modular with support to 4+4 CPU power line and a LOT of cables for everything.

I suggest you take a dual tower cooler cpu air cooler as the 5700x runs hot and plus you can future proof it aswell. You can take the ThermalRight Pearless Assasin SE120 or just the 120, both are good and the price is also better. Also the ram you chose is DDR5 and it is not compatible with the motherboard as DDR5 is only supported by the new AM5 platform and not the AM4. If you can spend couple extra bucks you can take the ryzen 7 5800x3D as @Imago mentions it here. If you still want the pc to be able to use DDR5 then you may need to spend more by getting a B650 motherboard which are quite expensive (atleast in my region) and you can prob go for the ryzen 5 7600x with the B650 motherboard. But again your choice

Ok I’ve made a slight change taking in some of your suggestions

PSU is already dc-dc, changed the ram to ddr4 and the cpu cooler to a duel fan. Can’t change cpu to 5800x3d as much as I’d love to

Thank you again, I’m not interested in the PSU being white I’m interested in the white cables. The build you suggested looks great, I’ll see if I can get most the parts from this shop near me if not then I’ll order them online

if you want to get that white rm850 then go for it. It's a good psu and white cables do look good
