What do you need your PC for besides gaming?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

maybe you could downgrade the mobo to a b450 tomahawk which'll save you like $50, and get a 1070ti which will bring the cost to wot like $1030

You should get i7 8700k and EVGA Z370 classified K. That's basically what I use (I have the 8086k, but it's also using the Hyper 212 evo.) Your other selections for ram and PSU are fine, but consider a higher quality PSU like the EVGA G2.

 

Edit: I just saw that you don't know the size of your PC case, you posted an ATX motherboard in the original post but said you think you have mATX so if you find out you should post it 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

How many watts do I need? ATX 3.0 & PCIe 5.0 spec, PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Depends on your use. If you are only going to use the system for gaming, and want the maximum gaming performance, go for Intel. If you want gaming performance plus some editing/production capabilities, go for AMD. It's entirely up to you. If your budget is limited, go for AMD. You won't notice too much of a difference in everyday use.

What is your monitor resolution/refresh rate, and what are you doing with your PC besides gaming?

 

The R5 2600 is the best CPU for the money right now, the Ryzen 7 Chips would be better for streaming/production stuff.

 

Intel is going to have the best 144hz gaming, though not by too huge of a margin, say 100fps for ryzen vs 120+fps for intel in the average AAA game

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...
 

Spoiler

 

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

No modern CPU supports windows 7 officially/easily, you can install and use windows 10 without a key for free

 

If you want good and cheap get an R5 2600

If you are only gaming at 1080p 60hz an RX 570/580 will be fine
