ima drop a diss track on you

 

you bought 2x4gb ddr4 instead of 1x8gb, so you must throw it out when you want to upgrade to 32gb!

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

For a budget build thats not bad at all. You just chose a bad time to build with mining at an all time high bringing GPU prices with it, and the global RAM shortage....

 

And I think the case is ugly... but thats all personal pref

Fanboys are the worst thing to happen to the tech community World. Chief among them are Apple fanboys.

I can only roast the PSU, which sucks.

 

Look around PCCP, it seems that the Corsair TX550M is the cheapest among 450W or higher, 80+ Bronze or higher rated PSUs with modular cables that's good.

Well, it’s not the best GPU price (I’ve seen those at $130 USD), and the case isn’t the best looking (personal opinion), but it’s decent.

Oh, that, there is barely any performance there to roast, what even is that PSU, are you sure there isn't a potato in that?

But on a serious level, I would bump up the CPU a bit, and bump down the GPU to a 1050, and a SATA drive may be better than that M.2 Stick for the price.

Motherboard too expensive for such a low-end chip (entry-level B350 + Ryzen 5 1500X is more performance almost everywhere).

Spending too much on 3200MHz memory when a better CPU would be better even with slower RAM

You're buying a WD Blue but the RE4 1TB is cheaper and higher performance https://pcpartpicker.com/product/KzTmP6/western-digital-internal-hard-drive-wd1003fbyx

The SPEC-01 is a pretty bad case but meh I don't care that much

What does bother me is your PSU. It might look like a great one but that series doesn't have OPP (over-power protection). In other words were a surge to happen or were you to foolishly load this power supply too much, it will die and it may even have some small explosions.

The CX450M is around the same performance and has all the needed protection circuits.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

RIP the prices of everything right now, building a PC is insane due to crypto mining.

Guy got a PSU, fully-modular unit,
Time will tell how long he can use it.
Corsair would be a better choice,
If he can afford it.
Throw some RAM in there, now he got (2x4)8,
Now y'all know why we all hate.
Be throwin' it out when you want 32,
Droppin' cash on fast RAM,
Gonna cheap on the CPU,
Get a board that's too expensive for the spec,
Gonna do a 1050Ti just for lulz.
GPU's much too expensive to get,
Be better off just to wait
(unless you need it quick)
Case is good, now I won't lie,
You could find something better to buy.
Get an S340 fo' yo money,
Have it last a while longer.

Parts so high priced, y'all can't cheap if you tried.
Miners gonna mine, ain't crap we can do survive.
Gamers need their parts, Bitcoin's useless.
Wait a while longer and save up yo cash,
DRAM prices so high, just get a better CPU
And increased performance.

This was originally intended as a roast of sorts for the OP's build, but it sort of became a rant about the whole gaming PC industry towards the end. Was written with inspiration from @themctipers, @Jurrunio, and @Energycore

now modern rap it

shove in a bunch of n words, and swears every two words, mumble it all with no enthusiasm with a really simple sub bass, and have that triple hat tap thing
