Programming and light Gaming 1080p

[SiriusPR]

Hey everyone

 

I am looking to build a new machine, i am a web designer and developer but i am going to do more things like streaming and some media creation overall. I will play games but nothing crazy they will be 1080p games. These are the parts that i was thinking or something like this. Any feedback is appreciated.

Don't get that card model unless you want to hear a jet engine whenever you use your PC.

Thats awesome feedback, let me look at other options then/

Change the motherboard to something that isn't crap. X370 is preferable. 

Ryzen benefits a lot from faster RAM, and single rank kits are preferred (2x 8GB).

The SL308 costs $20 less than the 850 Evo.

You can get the P2 for the same price as the G2, after rebate.

Blower style cards work fine for low TDP cards. The 1060 has a 120W TDP, so it's fine. You should be able to find cheaper 1060s, though.

So i should buy 2x 8gb instead of a 1x 16gb?

I looked into that but i see that the 980ti are between $190 and $250 wouldn't it be better to just put a newer card for future proof?

Future-proofing is irrelevant if the older card performs better than the newer card at the same price point.

my goal is to go to 32gb which i know is overkill but should i just buy 2x 16gb then? other i would need 4x 8gb.

Mobo is meh, you'd be better off with 2x8gb RAM, and you'd be better off with one large 500gb SSD (a 500gb 850 evo will save you $60, or a 500gb 960 evo would only cost $20 more, two drives isn't worth it). Also I got rid of the blower cooler 1060 and got a cheaper yet as good psu

Thats awesome, is there a big difference between the 850 and 960 SSD?

so less than 200$ is a good deal ?

The 850 will be significantly slower as it isn't M.2. I'd go with a 950 EVO.

In theory, yes. In practice, no

[SiriusPR]

It depends on the workload. For booting up apps and booting up the pc there will be no difference at all. In other stuff, such as when doing large file transfers or perhaps when compiling code (I'm assuming at least part of code compilation would be disk limited) you'll notice a pretty big difference.

Yea the compiling part is the most important to me.

Get a ASUS X370 Prime good VRM's for R7 i even a X370 Gaming for a R5 overclocked much more stable and more storage options.
A SSD is nice i use one for my PvP games but if you need storage it sucks, check out the Seagate Barracuda 1/2TB drives.
