New Build Almost Complete Final Thought?

[Aidan Hartline]

So I am Almost Done with my Build and Super Close to Getting the Last Bit of Money to Get my Final Components. So here is my Plan. A Couple Things will be stated after the fact.

So A few Things

1. I already have the B350 F Gaming Board, the Cryorig H5 Ultimate, the Corsair RM 650x, the Storage, the RX 480 8gb, and Windows 10.

2. I want to Invest in the First Gen Ryzen because I don't see much justification for paying 50 Dollars more for the Ryzen 5 2600, plus I would need to borrow a CPU so I can Update the Bios.

3. I Bought the RX 480 8gb Used off of Craigslist

4. I also Plan on Buying some Cablemod Cable Extensions

 

So what are your thoughts? Anything I can do To improve the Setup a Bit? I plan on Overclocking the CPU and GPU

It's $30 more for ryzen 2600 over the 1600 and it's worth it.  Also, you should get faster ram for ryzen, something around 3000mhz and 3200mhz should be $5-10 more

Get better RAM, and also that case might have case fans, so you might not need that expensive of fans.

Bur i could save 50 dollars because from Microcenter its on for $150. Plus I already have my B350 Board And i would need to find a First Series Chip to Update the bios plus its only like a 3 Percent difference so I just havent seen much justification.

It's more than 3%, but please at least get faster ram, 3200mhz ram like this only costs $15 more https://pcpartpicker.com/product/4n648d/gskill-tridentz-series-16gb-2-x-8gb-ddr4-3200-memory-f4-3200c16d-16gtzkw

Consider dropping the Nzxt fans and putting the money towards faster memory and a 2xxx cpu. RGB fans are easily added later, if really desired. The case comes with two fans which should be more than sufficient for good airflow. (When getting RGB fans, I would suggest models supported by the motherboard's lighting control protocol. Aura Sync in this instance.)
