PC BUILD UPDATE

[Rowl]

After giving it some thought, I think I may have found a build that is suitable for me (I think lol). What I didn't mention in my previous post is that I live in Malta, and unfortunately shipping costs will give a major rise to the total cost of my build. I  lowered the budget to €1, 000 -  €1, 100 just for the build.

 

 

MOTHERBOARD                                          ASUS PRIME X370-PRO       

CPU                                                                  RYZEN 5 2600         

                                                  

RAM                                                                 GSKILL TRIDENT Z 16GB      

POWER SUPPLY                                           CORSAIR 550W G2

GPU                                                                 ASUS 1060 GTX     

HDD                                                                  SEAGATE BARRACUDA 2TB

SSD                                                                   WD BLUE 250GB    

CASE                                                                COOLERMASTER MASTERBOX 5 LITE  

 

I estimated that this build would cost around 1, 060euros, so that leaves me with a little bit extra to spend. With this build I am also trying to fit some extra RGB, hance the GSKILL Trident Z. Any improvements to this build would be appreciated. Also, are there any good but not expensive CPU coolers?

Thanks in advance guys.

Build looks fine but i would recommend getting a X470 over the 370 because u would need to mess around getting a bios update for the board and unless u have the first series Ryzen chip u could be in a spot of bother.

Case has airflow problems apparently

Could you clarify what PSU you are getting? Corsair doesn't make a 550W G2 model. I think you might be thinking of EVGA. (Corsair is better). As @jimkirk363suggested, get that newer chipset, you will want it.

 

As for CPU coolers, the Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo is still a solid option for the price. However, if you get the Ryzen with the Wraith cooler that should also be just fine.
