PC Build Suggestions

[Denis_Twin]

Hey guys, I would like to ask how does this seem to come together for gaming/some editing?

I mostly do gaming in online games (such as guild wars 2 or raiding in world of warcraft) and use my PC for editing videos and photos occasionally, sometimes maybe streaming too.

Also need some case suggestions, want it to be as silent as possible.

If there is a better or more recent part that I could use please let me know, thanks!

which you didn't state anywhere in the thread or list.

1700 is much better value since 2nd gen Ryzen didnt improve in speed nearly as much as the price difference. If you just want 2nd gen Ryzen, then get the 2700 if you will overclock yourself, or 2700x if you dont (and pay more for that). The X model goes faster at stock, but when manually overclocked they hit similar speeds.

 

the choice of mobo can be improved too. I prefer the Asus B450-F more than the X470 Gaming Pro as a motherboard for the price, but it depends on how much you care about overclocking and the final choice of CPU.

Thanks, so which case would you go for? Something less noisy, my current one is noisy on the front.

Also, B450-F is 5$ cheaper or so from the x470

Is it a better motherboard overall?

oh , by the way, I wont assemble it due to guarantee reasons so I wont ask for overclocking due to policies.

Corsair 270R with current prices of $60.

 

what X470, MSI Gaming Pro or X470-F?

not sure what 'guarantee' and 'policies' mean here, but anyway. 2700X does have a tendency of shoving too much voltage (safe, but quite a lot more than needed) to the CPU at stock causing high heat output, which makes MSI boards a no-no. They dont have offset voltage mode, so you cant correct this over-voltage behaviour easily.

Asus B450-F is better. Hardware side, they are similar. Asus do get better software (BIOS), looks (RGB lights) and price.

 

case products? You mean fans?

thanks, yes, Pc Case.

Maybe a line of choices, I like the https://www.amazon.it/Corsair-Carbide-Mid-Tower-Finestra-Laterale/dp/B00I0MKMG2 or spec-3

Something Practically good. I dont care about lights too much.

[Denis_Twin]

Also, is the motherboard you mentioned superior to MSI X470 Gaming Pro? because the name says 470 so isnt it more recent as a line of products?

yes.

 

chipsets only represents the features available (X370 and X470 support SLI, B350 and B450 doesnt for example). It doesnt mean one is better or worse. B450 is actually the newer chipset compared to X470

Thanks for the info and the suggestions, I decided to go for Corsair Carbide Spec-03 LED as it is kinda more in the price tag and the design is pretty cool too, it is corsair and has some high quality material that it is made of.

didnt recommend spec-03 because there's only 1 intake on the front, but either way enjoy it.
