New Build: Need help finalizing

Hi,

 

In the recent past, my pc was destroyed and i need a new one. I understand that the gpu and memory markets are insane rn, however i am in need of a pc. I need help looking over this build that I have put together because I have not very familiar with AMD in general. Including peripherals, I am able to spend $2600 - $2700 CAD including tax. I will be using the desktop for flight simulation (x-plane 11), light to moderate content creation, CADing (SolidWorks), gaming, and other general tasks such as doc editing. I would like to preferably stick with an AMD gpu as freesync monitors are much cheaper. I am not planning on OCing the cpu or gpu (not at least for a couple years).

 

Here is the build: https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/list/R9pQRJ

 

Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Where are you going to get that GPU? I would love to buy a 580 for $400.

  • I wouldn't get a 300 series motherboard, unless you're positive it'll have the correct BIOS installed.
  • Personally I'd get a G.Skill KM780 instead of that Corsair board. Better quality, much cheaper.
  • In order to get the most of AMD, it needs to be overclocked. Otherwise I'd go Intel.
  • I'd go with the G2 PSU.

Do you know of any 300 series motherboards that are ryzen 2000 ready?

Both keyboards are the exact same price for me. I had the K70 red backlighting before and i didn't find anything wrong with it for me personally. I think i will stick with the corsair. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Nope. Don't think anyone will. You're better off getting an X470 board, or risking it by getting an old board.

The G.Skill is $40 cheaper.

For some reason I saw $199 earlier. Still, cheaper.
