Hi,

Am thinking about building a Threadripper Build for doing some things like 3D-Modelling, Video and Photo Editing etc.. mostly and was wondering if this build is good/somewhat-balanced, aka looking for some final thoughts :):

The GPU is temporary but want to get a better one later on. Optical drive I wanna have inside the case so it's out of the way lol.

Is the CPU-Cooler a good choice? And I don't want water-cooling at all.

Is the case good for Airflow etc..?

And yeah I know there's no SSD but I'd want a 500GB or 1TB one but they are still expensive, I think.

 

Opinions?

Thanks,

Xiauj

hey so I was looking at your list and all in all you have picked a good choice of parts noctua is a very reliable brand for cpu coolers so I wouldnt expect any problems with that you can also get a £50 480gb ssd by Kingston https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/product/WGZ2FT/kingston-a400-480gb-25-solid-state-drive-sa400s37480g

the case I do not have any experience with but looking at it it should have pretty good airflow depending on the fan config 

if your upgrading the gpu then that would be great as yes 650tis are good but not greate for editing and design 

hope this helped
