Hey Guys! I have selected the following components for my gaming PC build named (Beaser(As in Beast and taser)) and here are the components-

BTWs I live in India and the budget for such build is 87000 Rs = (1250$ USD)

1. AMD Ryzen 5 2600x 6 Core 3.6-4.2 GHz AM4 processor

2. Galax 1070 Ti

3. 2*8 GB Corsair Vengeance 3000Mhz LPX Ram modules

4. MSI B450 Tomahawk motherboard

5. Adata SX6000 128 GB M.2 SSD for OS

6. Seagate 1TB Barracuda HDD

7. Stock cooler ( I will be using it in the stock settings)

8. Corsair VS 550 @ SMPS ATX PSU

9. Cooler Master Lite 5 RGB Case ( Dont worry about airflow)

10. Arctic 5 Silver Thermal paste

11. Iron Man Funko Pop figure for the asthetics

I really need something with RGB to burn my friend, he teases me a lot as he has an alienware laptop with 1080M and I7 7980HQ something something.

everything is great except for the SSD and the Power Supply.

switch the SSD to a normal 2.5 inch one, and go for 250GB, M.2 will not benefit you in any way.

and switch the power supply to something more reliable and robust.

But isn't M.2 faster than normal SATA SSD? And the PSU is either of this price or of double, thus can't do that but if the reasons are good, i would go for a normal SSD

M.2 and SATA are pretty much the same speed. M.2, however, plugs into your motherboard instead of needing cable and such for SATA making M.2 more expensive. NVMe is faster then SATA but is only really useful when editing/transferring large files. Only playing games (which I suppose you're doing) an M.2 won't help you. Better to get a bigger SATA to store more games as most are over 50GB nowadays.

Alright, i think a 1070 Ti also should be sufficient then

Yea, however, I would wait a bit for it to drop in price since RTX is releasing. However, if you are in a rush go for it. An OC 1070 Ti matches the 1080 in performance.

Nope, too much to hope for that in India! In fact a 1070 ti FE is cheaper by approx. 50$ in India and 100$ cheaper than 1080

What I meant was if you overclock the 1070 Ti it matches the 1080s performance. The RTX cards releasing will also drop the 1070 Ti in price since its the old generation.
