Hello everyone, few weeks ago I made a post regarding my PC build that I was going to with.  since then I've changed my build based on the ryzen 2600 X and Crosshair 7 x470 motherboard. What I was wondering is will the GTX 1080 be bottlenecked by the ryzen 2600 X here is my parts list which I am ordering next Friday.

I've already gotten the case. Also my monitor is 1080p at a 75hz refresh rate.

Spending way too much on your motherboard

 

a GTX 1070ti makes more sense than a 1080 due to pricing, but I'd suggest just forgetting both and living with a GTX 1050ti until next gen GPUs are out at the end of the year. A 1070 or above is fairly overkill for 1080p gaming anyways. Just turn off AA/Shadows on the 1050ti and you should be alright for medium-high settings.

You can just use Store MI on X470 to speed up your hard drive rather than a hybrid drive.

8 core is probably overkill for you, but I'd rather have 8 cores than an overkill motherboard. Could just save money there in any event.

Ryzen 2 is good enough for 105fps in the average AAA game, coffee lake being 120+fps or so, but then you lose StoreMI, and a soldered IHS, and AM4.

Could always get the cooler later, the ryzen stock cooler is fairly alright.

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?
