Building my first Gaming PC and can't decide

[Logical0.1]

So I'm building my first gaming pc and I can't decide between mouses, headsets, processors. (90% of the time I'll use it for only gaming)

 

I can't decide between the Razer Deathadder Elite, Steelseries rival 310, Logitech G502. The 3 of them are about the same price and the problem is that I cant try them myself because I'm in Egypt and I'll order them from Amazon. so which would you recommend?

 

same for the HS70 Wireless headset and the Hyperx Cloud II. so please tell me your recommendation.

 

and lastly I can't decide between the ryzen 5 2600 , 2600x . ryzen 7 2700. knowing that both the 2600x and the 2700 are for the same price (225$).

 

Any help would be appreciated.

In terms of peripherals its really more like a personal preference for me id grab G502 if its cheaper in your country. About the Hyper X Cloud II or HS70 it depends on your setup whether you want cable running through your desk or would you want wireless and not interfere with anything both works and performs almost similarly, i just go for the better build quality for longevity so I would say Hyper X Cloud II's for me,

Last but not the least the processors, well it seems like they have the same price so I would say get the beefier one.

I didnt like the cloud 2, liked the G502 enough to own and use two (workstation and gaming rig) and use a ryzen 2700x and it's a beast

The G502 is an Amazon Bestseller and it's a great mouse IMO. I've been using it for a few months and it's a great mouse.

 

I haven't had a Cloud II headset but I'm pretty sure it's a great headset.

 

You should save up for a bit longer and buy a 2700X.

Ryzen 7 2700x isn't an option because it'll exceed my budget. which would u recommend from the 3 processors? (2600/2600x/2700)

The R7 2700 unless the R5 2600 is a lot cheaper..

The ryzen  7 1800x is also 225$ and will outperform both of them.

I would say if you are not going to overclock the 2600x, higher base clock, higher turbo

For the same price the R7 2700 is the better option. Only reason to go with the 6 core is if the R5 1600 is a lot cheaper.

How do you figure that out ? Also no stock cooler with the 1800X.

He is going to get a higher base clock and turbo clock with the 2600x and if he isnt going to overclock there is no real benefit imo. I run 3 vm's on my 2700x and still have threads that I have as backup for more vm's and I doubt he is going use all 16 threads efficiently

Still makes sense to get the 8 core if it is the same price.

but is the R7 2700 good for gaming? I'm not planning to overclock.

Why would you get more cores on LOWER base clock if you are not going to utilize all of the cores/threads

Yes it is fine. Better to have the extra cores for the same money.

Ever heard of overclocking ? It is a thing.

see that "not going to overclock" ?

It makes no difference in the short term. Buying a 6 core when you can get an 8 core for the same money is just plain stupid.

except the 2600 has lower clock speeds than 2600x

So ? Even with both at stock the R7 2700 is better.

still lower base clocks

That seems to be your only argument. More cores is better for longevity.

a cryorg h7 will work fine on it.

That website isn't the way to compare them. Also adding a cooler means extra cost.
