Trying to plan an all white computer that can run most games on ultra 60fps.New triple AAA games not going to be the main gaming target but something like borderlands 2 is a good idea. Please tell me what you think and if you have any other parts you think I should check out please give a link to them. Budget is anywhere around from $1000 to 2000 but would rather stay near middle and lower. Country is Canada.

How about this? A better all around CPU, a decent air cooler is fine, faster RAM, better SSD, and a higher capacity HDD? The Wi-fi card supports AC, allowing for higher speeds.

-Ryzen 5 1600 is cheaper and better for gaming

If you have to get a white CPU cooler you could add a cryorig h7 to the list.

For Ryzen I'd say that money is better spent on gpu or ssd or something.

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

 

Do this:

And make sure you do it by hitting the quote button at the bottom left of my post, and not the one inside the editor!

Or this:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.

Good point, I like your build better. Possibly a H7 for white theme?
