MB: MB AMD B350 AM4 - https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813144029&cm_re=mb_amd_b350_pc_mate-_-13-144-029-_-Product

CPU: Ryzen 3 1300X + stock cooler

GPU: Asus - STRIX-GTX1050TI-O4G-GAMING

RAM:Kingston HyperX FURY 2x4GB 2666

CASE + PSU - Cooler Master Cooler Master MasterBox Lite 5 600W

SSHD - Seagate FireCuda 3.5'' 1TB SATA3 7200RPM 64MB cache / 8GB SSD

 

I know PSU is overkill. but its best deal in my country :)

I'd get the 2200G instead and look out if there's some faster ram for not much more, as Ryzen really likes fast ram.

Get a 1200 and OC to 1300X levels, save $20. Try getting 1x8gb also.

And would you recommend a different graphics card at a similar price?  I just got into building pc's all I have done so far is to insert a hdd in a pc and install windows.

 

New GPUs are super expensive. a 970 or 980ti on ebay will do much better for cheaper.

No one says anything wrong about my build. i guess i will stick to it :)

Uh theres some things wrong with it..

Like I said, get a 1200 and save $20, dont get an SSHD, they suck. Now with the money saved you can get an SSD. Get a 970/980ti for better performance for the same price.

Why do you want to stick with it if you can get similar performance for cheaper?

As for the SSHD, they barely offer any performance for a significant price boost.

I to say a 1tb hdd + 120gb ssd, which will perform much better.

Thanks for tips man :) . the thing is if i would build pc for myself i would risk having no warranty on used parts(Europe, Lithuania btw). but i`m building pc for friend just because he wants to buy prebuild crap from 2012 parts. 970 is very good compared to 1050. but used ones cost 300$/240eur no warranty. Maybe u have some experience with ryzen 1200 ? can stock cooler handle overclock ?

Yes the stock can handle a decent OC

Hello, you should totally get something like WD Blue 1TB + the cheapest 120 GB SSD you can find if your budget is high enough. The next thing I would change is the case. If you prefer look then this is a good case, but if you prefer performance go for something else with better airflow especially if u plan to overclock. I believe that there are better psus than this one. Get something semi modular with 80 plus bronze efficiency (450W should be enough e.g. corsair cx).

hmm. found something interesting. on 1300X it says Memory Channels Supports 2 does it mean it supports only 2 slots ? cause MB has 4. and if i`m going with 2x4gb ram i wont be able to upgrade to 4x4gb ?

It just means the memory will run in dual channel. Dont worry it will still work with 4x4. But I would still advice getting 8x1, its more future proof and slightly cheaper.
