Posted July 25, 2018 Personally I don't think your SSD is worth dropping to 8GB of RAM. Some newer games like the Witcher 3, Rise of the Tomb Raider, Arma 3, ect. all run better with more RAM. If you really want to keep the SSD I suggest swapping out the 1 8GB stick for a 2x4GB stick so you can run in dual channel and add another 2x4GB stick later. I personally still run HDDs and the time it takes me to boot up is not bad at all. As long as you manage your start up programs and enable fast boot in your BIOS setting your boot times should be pretty good. Edit: considering your also not running a "K" processor you don't need a fan either.

FeelsBadMan Yeah it is, about $100 more than it would take in the US for the same build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gotta find that motherboard, it's the best value choice IMO, probably $100-120 in AUD maybe? If the price is crazy just get the B350 version Or get like the ASrock Gaming X X370 board given X470's crazy pricing, but it may need a BIOS updatehttps://au.pcpartpicker.com/product/h8DzK8/asrock-x370-gaming-x-atx-am4-motherboard-x370-gaming-x PCPartPicker part list: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/vFqCD2 Price breakdown by merchant: https://au.pcpartpicker.com/list/vFqCD2/by_merchant/ CPU: AMD - Ryzen 5 2600 3.4GHz 6-Core Processor ($244.00 @ Shopping Express) Motherboard: ASRock - B450M PRO4 Micro ATX AM4 Motherboard Memory: G.Skill - Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory ($239.00 @ IJK) Storage: Western Digital - Green 240GB M.2-2280 Solid State Drive ($68.00 @ Centre Com) Storage: Seagate - Barracuda 2TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($79.00 @ Shopping Express) Video Card: Asus - Radeon RX 570 4GB ROG STRIX Video Card ($249.00 @ Amazon Australia) Case: Cooler Master - N300 ATX Mid Tower Case ($58.00 @ Skycomp Technology) Power Supply: Corsair - TXM Gold 550W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply ($105.00 @ Shopping Express) Total: $1042.00 +$100-120 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2018-07-25 16:58 AEST+1000 I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
