Hello guys, It's been a long time that I've been trying to build my own gaming PC and i came to this:

 

PCPartPicker: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/sdMF7h

 

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 1700 ($289)

COOLER: ARCTIC - Freezer 7 Pro Rev.2 45.0 CFM Fluid Dynamic Bearing CPU Cooler ($17.79)

MOTHERBOARD: MSI - B350 TOMAHAWK ATX AM4 Motherboard ($86.98)

MEMORY:  G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($148.55)

HDD: Western Digital - Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (purchased)

Graphics Card: EVGA - GeForce GTX 1050 Ti 4GB SSC GAMING ACX 3.0 Video Card (purchased)

Case: Deepcool - TESSERACT SW ATX Mid Tower Case (purchased)

Power Supply: EVGA - SuperNOVA G3 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply(purchased)

 

I want to know if this build can run some of the latest game in a decent quality without lagging. If it can great :) If it can't what can i change to make it do so? Thanks in advance.

Notes:  - My budget is maxed at R$1.800,00 about $600,00 - Total: $543.31 - Sorry for my english i am brazilian xD

Cheaper... You don't really need a Ryzen 7 1700 for gaming. Replaced it with a cheaper, but still great, CPU.

Replaced the RAM with faster one, which scales well with Ryzen performance.

Replaced the motherboard with a better quality one (avoid MSI/Gigabyte with AM4).

It would be better if you could replace the GPU. But not worth it if you already bought it.

An SSD is going to make a good difference, I have added that.

Z370 AsRock Board

and RipJaws 16GB Memory rated for 3200MHz. And it stays under the ryzen budget u made. Intel was made mainly for gaming imo. Ryzen is your workstation grade material. NOT SAYING THAT IT CANT GAME, but if you can fit Intel in.

My part-list has the 3200MHz 16GB kit as well.

Ryzen stock coolers don't need replacement, unlike Intel ones.

With Ryzen being cheaper OP can afford a good NVMe SSD. Without the SSD the Ryzen system would be over $100 cheaper than yours.

Since OP isn't researching for the highest possible FPS, Ryzen is better value for sure considering that the FPS difference is not that astronomical.

I think I would rather wait on a SSD for a bit.

You would give up a faster Operative System, gaming experience and what not, just to run games at 110 fps instead of 100 fps? (not to mention having a weaker CPU for whatever doesn't concern gaming)

Sure would. I went with a 2tb SSHD for a year, and when I felt it was right. I upgraded to an SSD.

I will use the processor for things other than games like autocad, solidworks and 3d renders

Then I switched back to the R7 1700. I still squeezed in one of the best value X370 motherboards (allows you to OC the R7 without fears).

The stock cooler of the CPU will be good enough to get 3.7-3.8GHz. More than that you will probably want an after market solution.

I still kept the faster 16GB memory kit to allow the CPU to work at its full potential.

 

I would still squeeze in an SSD if you could.

Pretty good, but just use the Wraith Spire stock cooler until you can get something much better, can't imagine that ARCTIC cooler being that much better as it's not very large.

 

MSI AM4 boards are pretty much all bad

 

You should try for the ASrock Killer X370 board, it's around $130 USD in the US at least.

Are you sure you need a 500gb SSD?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
