Alas, I am not a big fan of team red.. The Ryzen series is amazing, but just not for me. Thanks though, I appreciate it :)

unnecessary cooler and thermal paste, and get a CX/TXM instead of the M12ii.

Id advice again getting a motherboard that cost more then the cpu. Dont get a h60 the stock cooler is more then fine and you wont need to buy the thermal paste unless you feel you are going to mess up and have to replace the paste. Get a cheaper motherboard and try and get a 8400 instead. Also get rid of the DVD drive. Install windows through a USB.

at this price point, you should be looking at an i5 or R5 based system and because of ryzens better multicore performance and ability to overclock it will narrow the gap to a point where the single core performance will be within 10% on average but the multicore performance will be far better

here are some benchmarks that support my opinion: http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-8400-vs-AMD-Ryzen-5-1600/3939vs3919

The motherboard is there to stay, the CPU will definitely be upgraded in the future. The DVD drive is needed to do some casual side business. I am installing windows through a USB. The thermal paste is nice to have, might not use it now but maybe in the coming months. I know the H60 is definitely not needed but I have used it before and love it

I know Ryzen has better multi-core performance but I want a Z370 because Intel's new CPU releases. The i3 is just a placeholder for right now.

The power supply I would like for it to stay fully modular and I much prefer Intel over Amd. Team Reds new releases are nice but I have just had to many problems with AMD in the past.

I was thinking about that, and If I remember correctly the mobo has a M.2 slot. I might get a M.2 card instead of an SSD.

it's only the 24-pin and 8-pin cpu connector that are fixed on the psu, no reason to spend the extra on a fully modular unit. just because you had an issue with AMD in the past doesn't mean you'll keep having issues with all their products in the future.

I totally get that and was considering getting an AMD CPU and GPU. But im going to wait until the cryptomining price jack up before I buy a GPU. If it goes down enough I might even get a 1060 3gb

it might take awhile before prices go back to normal, look for a used gtx 970/980/ti instead.

I HV NOT ADDED A GPU COZ CURRENTLY GPU PRICES ARE WAY TOO HIGH. SO I RECOMMEND U TO GET SOME USED GPU. CURRENTLY GTX 960/970 GO AROUND FR $150-200 IN THE USED MARKET. U CAN EVEN FIND A GTX 980 FR ABOUT $180-250.

ALL THESE GPUS EASILY OUTPERFORM A GTX 1050TI.

ALSO I WENT WITH SEAGATE FIRECUDA INSTEAD OF WD BLUE AS IT IS A HYBRID DRIVE. IT IS AN SSHD.

I ALSO HV SELECTED THAT 80+ GOLD RATED PSU.

INTEL I5 8400 COMES WITH A STOCK INTEL COOLER WHICH HAS THERMAL PASTE PREAPPLIED TO IT. SO NO NEED OF PURCHASING THERMAL PASTE AND COOLER.

SSD TIER LIST

 

 

CPU - Ryzen 7 3700X

Mobo - ASRock X470 Taichi

Memory - G.Skill Trident Z RGB (8x2 3200MHz)
