[HarmlessPotato12]

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Tfpgfy

will be used with arch linux 64 bit

 

for light to mid tier gaming, some coding and general web browsing

 

will everything work? should i change something?
(im scared)

also, the case: idk just picked smt cheap, do i need a bigger case?

Welcome to the forums!
Looks great

Yeah it's a pretty good build for this budget, even better when you use Linux on it

ill just assume budget is 750$

what country?

what usecases?

 

pretty terrible for 750$

6700xt minimum and with used am4 a 3080 or 6800xt (~350$) should fit in budget

 

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vGdCQP

5600x + 6800 + 32gb 3600c18

 

used 5600(x) should be around 70-90$

 

used midranger b3/450 like the tomahawk or equivalent are ~50$ but if youd prefer a new board then theres the b450m pro vdh max

 

ram capacity has been doubled to 32gb

 

ssd has been upgraded to a dram gen3 and its cheaper too

 

left an option for a new gpu incase used 6800/6800xt is meh value or you want a new gpu which is valid considering the pricing of the 6800 (should slightly outperform the 7700xt whilst having 4gb more vram), used 6800xt should be around the 350-400$ mark, used 3080 ~350$ though i assume youd want amd cause linux

 

left the case alone as budget allows for a decent case but you really could just buy a 10-20$ used case and put that money towards something like an 850w gf1 with a 10 year warranty which will last you multiple systems as long as you dont go dual gpu hedt or something, or you could also buy a used 5700x/5800x instead of a 5600x but those are encroaching on 12600kf pricing (demolishes them in singlecore and multicore) to the point that youd be better off buying one for 150$ (or used if cheaper) and pairing with a used b660/z690 board
