First PC Build

[mattrhook]

I am looking at building my first desktop PC and have done some research and picked out these parts (look at list). I plan on using it for gaming, video editing, streaming and just general use. I sit basically right on budget too, so not looking to upgrade many parts without downgrade others. Also i want to be able to play AAA games.

Is 550W enough, some friends recommended more.

Just get a 2tb hdd and a 120gb ssd. Your never gonna use 2tb in a few years

[Jurrunio]

Havent got time to correct it myself, but I'd give it a 6/10.

 

1. Ryzen loves fast RAM, so get 3000MHz ones (3200 ones are expensive for that extra speed)

 

2. Either get a cheap ~120GB SATA SSD as boot drive or 240GB+ Samsung drive as a fast storage drive. Intel SSDs suck anyway. 3. A 550W unit is already enough for your build. Unless it is the cheapest PSU that has good quality and on or above this power rating, get another one.

You're talking maybe 350W in a worst-case scenario. Your friends are overestimating the power consumption of the rig.

A faster data transfer protocol than SATA.

Id like 3tb and also the 250gb ssd, preferably m.2 because of the speed

You'd push your budget with an m.2 and it usually disables some sata ports

Not really worth it

So maybe go for 120gb m.2 and keep the speed?

It's not worth it though

Why? Because of the price?

You will get .5 second faster boot time and you give up $25-50.

Okay, so just a normal ssd then
