You say around 2000 AUD, but it's only 1500? You should get an SSD, a less powerfull PSU, a better GPU, and a WAAAY less expensive case.

Main PC:

AMD Ryzen 7 5800X • Noctua NH-D15 • MSI MAG B550 Tomahawk • 2x8GB G.skill Trident Z Neo 3600MHz CL16 • MSI VENTUS 3X GeForce RTX 3070 OC • Samsung 970 Evo 1TB • Samsung 860 Evo 1TB • Cosair iCUE 465X RGB • Corsair RMx 750W (White)

 

Peripherals/Other:

ASUS VG27AQ • G PRO K/DA • G502 Hero K/DA • G733 K/DA • G840 K/DA • Oculus Quest 2 • Nintendo Switch (Rev. 2)

 

Laptop (Dell XPS 13):

Intel Core i7-1195G7 • Intel Iris Xe Graphics • 16GB LPDDR4x 4267MHz • 512GB M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD • 13.4" OLED 3.5K InfinityEdge Display (3456x2160, 400nit, touch). 

 

Got any questions about my system or peripherals? Feel free to tag me (@bellabichon) and I'll be happy to give you my two cents. 

 

PSA: Posting a PCPartPicker list with no explanation isn't helpful for first-time builders :)

Pcpartpicker picks the cheapest part from different websites. I'm buying all these parts from Umart and everything costs about $1900 + $50 (around) for shipping. Sorry, i forgot to add my ssd (i added it now). I realize the psu is overkill but i'm not planning on changing in a loooong time. I feel like every other graphics cards are too expensive rn (GPU suggestions?). I do understand the case is very expensive but in my opinion it is one of the best looking cases out there (what case do you recommend).

Seriously suggest you consider shopping around. it will allow you fit so much more into the same build.

One can instruct pcpartpicker to use particular merchants. Also, if it does not have a listing from the merchant, one can enter a custom price. 

 

Without actual pricing it is difficult to comment on the build. But it strikes me as a poor allocation of funds. In a gaming system gpu should be a priority, followed by the cpu. Spending almost as much on the case as the gpu is not a good idea.

Browsed UMart for a while. These are all on there, and I do believe this list addresses your build desires. Apologies for all the pictures, but .... yep. It is what it is.

Couple additions to the build above that seriously increase how much you'll be able to cool it for an overclock.
