Any problem with this build?

Edit: 

Also how hard would it be to paint that GPU for a first time builder?

Hold on, actually 23.8 inches might be a little small for a 1440p monitor. What do other people think? I'm saying this because the most common 1080p monitor is 24 inches.

I thought the same but when i checked some reviews and videos on YouTube it looked good to me

Well if that's okay with you. For a $120 more you can get the ASUS MG279Q.

However, if you can't stretch the budget or if you are ok with a smaller monitor then go for it.

I'd just get a different SSD, SanDisk for cheap or an MX300/evo850 if you can afford, Kingston has a serious background of shitty SSDs on the "low budget" segment:

I have 5 SSD Plus which performs identically to brand new, oldest one being 1 year and 3 months now, they are all great SSDs and the same used on WD Green SSDs line up.

 

It is true there used to be an old revision code name g25 years ago with issues but every new one now is the g26 with is solid and perfectly recommended.

Not bad

How about that:

CPU		AMD - Ryzen 5 1600 3.2GHz 6-Core Processor	$196.88	Buy
CPU Cooler		Noctua - NH-U9DXi4 37.8 CFM CPU Cooler	$59.95	Buy
Motherboard		ASRock - X370 GAMING X ATX AM4 Motherboard	$111.98	Buy
Memory		G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3200 Memory	$153.88	Buy
Storage		Samsung - 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive	$89.99	Buy
		Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive	$45.69	Buy
Video Card		Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB G1 Gaming Video Card (2-Way SLI)	$523.89	Buy
		Gigabyte - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB G1 Gaming Video Card (2-Way SLI)	$523.89	Buy
Case		Phanteks - Enthoo Pro M ATX Mid Tower Case	$75.98	Buy
Power Supply		Cooler Master - 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply	$85.98	Buy

TOTAL: $2258.10    

https://pcpartpicker.com/user/arescho/saved/#view=DdBbjX

and that's with SLI man, rather than wasting money on RGB goodness. Furthermore, people are overclocking Ryzens with stock coolers, no reason to waste so much money on water when Noctua are the best airflow coolers and you will have the same results. Or Atleast consider GTX 1080 Ti and maybe i7-7700k for $2200 PC.

 

EDIT: An alternative - https://pcpartpicker.com/user/arescho/saved/#view=7jmqkL. GTX 1080 TI and i7-7700k plus the Kraken X62.

Total:

$2208.16

Why not just use BB code markup instead of this mess that I can't read?

What you mean you cant read it? It looks like the screenshot below for me and just press on the name of the part and it takes you to part picker.

I use the dark theme, just like the majority of users who know about it's existence. It looks like this to me:

 

In the future, just use the BBCode option on PCPP and copy paste it

Oh Thanks. I will start using it. What you guys think about the Builds. For me is much better idea not to spend so much money on looks when you can get so much more performance instead. I mean.. 2way SLI GTX 1080 or i7-7700k + GTX 1080 Ti for the same money.

I presume you do not know much about Motherboards, so let me explain. Supports SLI and Crossfire, it has M.2, USB 3.1. USB type C, 12 power phase design, so overclocking is a breeze. Furthermore Asrock as solid. I presume you would buy an Asus for +$60 with the same features. Today's quality on components is not like the old days where MSI and Seagate would suck. Now every brand is as good as the other when it comes to reliability. 

 

Note: OP @CreepyProI would wait for the new Cofveve Lake from Intel as it seems like even their i5s are going to have 6 cores and they may actually beat the Ryzens. Here is an article about the release - https://www.pcgamesn.com/intel/intel-14nm-coffee-lake-release-date

No 12 phase or LLC settings.

ISL95712 integrates 2 of the drivers, you cannot double it up on the Gaming X and it is not digital, so no advanced tuning.

So it is 4+2 with double the components, you cannot create 6 phases from 2 PWM channels.

Looks like you do not know about motherboards.

The used mosfets are generally fine.

Asus Prime X370 Pro will kill it in terms of overclocking and VRM

I have an SSD Plus myself and I can assure you it's not a great ssd. When copying files from one location on the ssd to another I usually see transfer rates around a few hundred KB/s. Granted, I only have around 10GB free space but these are files a few megabytes in size so that shouldn't matter that much.

 

I'm not sure if it's a G25 or G26 but generally it's agreed upon that the controller used, the SMI2246 is more of the reason for the poor performance so while having a G26 will help MLC flash can't fix everything.
