New pc build!

[Catbattle]

Hello! I have made a parts list for a gaming pc build, budget is a little over 600 US dollars, plan on playing Overwatch, GTA 5, Minecraft, Need For Speed Edge, Rocket League, No Mans Sky, and possibly Just Cause 3 are the most demanding things I plan on running, medium settings, 60fps on 1080p monitor. Can this build do that?

Build:

Power supply: EVGA 600B 600W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply

Case: Rosewill Challenger S ATX Mid Tower Case

Motherboard: ASRock B150M Pro4S Micro ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

CPU fan: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

CPU: Intel Core i5-6500 3.2GHz Quad-Core Processor

GPU:  Radeon RX 480 graphics card

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 8gb (2x4gb) DDR4-2133 Memory

Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5” 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

@STRMfrmXMN should agree with me when I say that the PSU should be better. Also, what 480 are you planning?

The 200 dollar one. Also, the PSU doesn't impact performance really, as long as you have enough power?

Reference RX480 or? PSU needs to be of good enough quality so that it doesn't end up kaput.

I would say the PSU could be better and most importantly, you need to find the budget for a SSD imo. It will make your system run so much smoother !

Not true, the quality of the PSU can impact its lifespan and the performance you'll be able to get out of the other components. Don't neglect the PSU !

The 200 dollar one will be either a reference 4GB version or a really cheap aftermarket 4GB one. The internal component quality of the PSU dictates the lifespan of your rig. A shitty PSU will blow up your computer eventually. Let me make a list for you.

Allready have a 128gb SSD for OS. But that makes sense on the PSU. What should I get then?

The one Linus used in his video. The good one.

Better PSU + this counts for a really cheap 480.

I have a preference for Seasonic, V series from Cooler Master (basically Seasonic design), AX series from Corsair and Supernova series from EVGA. This is a non-exhaustive list of course

Processor says its 2.7ghz not 3.2ghz? I want to keep the case and Micro ATX might not fit. Whats wrong with the RAM I already picked out? Hard drive is the same. Power supply has LESS watts? How is that better?

Yep, although I'd change the PSU, RAM and motherboard. Get an XFX TS, Antec HCG, Corsair RM or any SeaSonic for PSU, and a Gigabyte H110M for the motherboard. Also switch the RAM to a single channel 8GB kit (Kingston HyperX Fury, same speed), so that expanding to 16GB will be easier.

Allright, with those changes made, can anyone answer my original question?

I think I did already, although it was subtle.

Yes it can play AAA games at 1080P maximum detail.

Lol no

 

As long as it works it doesn't affect much, maybe with the ripple being barely passable on the 600B you might do minimal if any damage to your motherboard, but the 600B is a very, very low-end unit. The 750 B2 or 650GQ are not drastically more expensive and are much better. The Seasonic S12 or M12 are also much better.

Just make sure you dont buy the older RM series. Mine blew up and many others have.

 

The RMx and RMi series are made by a completely different manufacturer and are significantly better. Seasonic and Superflower are number one choices imo.

Most EVGA and XFX units are good as well, but Seasonic and Superflower are the OEM for a lot of the good units on the market.

The RMi and RMx are made by CWT as is the RM by and large. The issues with the RM were significantly over-exaggerated, the secondary caps simply being Chinese and having no other detrimental issues affected nobody. You may have had a dud, you may have had one of the older Chicony units that were still good but some person soldering had on off day, I don't know, but they're aren't terrible PSUs.

I've had it since the release of the RM series. There were flames - happened quite recently.

Allright, so, power supply? What about that?

So only the power supply needs changing?
