Don't buy €160 5600 MHz RAM.Thanks to all for your feedback. Does my latest build-to-buy look good?:
CPU: 7600X @ 230€
CPU Cooler: NH-U12S SE-AM4 83€
RAM: 2x16Gb | G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo | 5600MT/s | 30-36-36-89 | AMD EXPO 163€
Main: ASUS Proart B650 330€
PSU: Seasonic Prime Platinum 156€
SSD: Samsung 990 Pro Heatsink 160€
Case: Fractal Design Focus 2 70€
Total: 1190€. Around 1200€ with shipping.
The only item I find questionable is RAM as the selection is huge. But this looks like a good premium kit.
The only problem is, the Samsung 990 Heatsink Edition will only arrive to Europe on April 6th and then it will take up to a week to arrive to my place. But I guess it's worth the wait if I want the best quality. I want to know my SSD is not overheating!
The reason I am leaning towards 990 Pro instead of Gen5 SSDs is because I think I'd rather have the #1 Gen4 SSD than the very first experimental Gen5 ones that will be left behind soon by new releases every month.
Edit:
Possible easy savings that I consider:
Could take cheaper simpler RAM for 110€.
Simple 990 PRO for 140€
And Noctua U12S Redux cooler for 60€
For total savings of 96€
Get 6000/C38 or better.
Remember this is the equivalent of 3000/19, which isn't good latency. 5600/30 is 2800/15 which also isn't great.
Spending €80+ on a cooler for a €200 CPU also doesn't make sense.
990 Pro doesn't need a heatsink either, and most good motherboards will have one anyway.
