Pc Build advice, is my build okay?

[Poolcoder]

So i managed to save around 500€ for an entry level gaming pc. I mainly play fortnite csgo minecraft and league of legnds.
Im thinking of buying these parts:

CPU: Ryzen 5 1600 6C/12TH 3.2Ghz 100€
GPU: XFX RX 570 4GB 80€
RAM: 2x8 DDR4 2666Mhz 60€
MOBO: Asus Prime B450M-K 70€
Storage: 512GB SSD 45€
Case: 1stcool Jazz 1 30€
PSU: Silentiumpc 500w 80+ bronze 60€
Additional 50€ for case fans fan hubs and some other accessories.

Will this pc be a good build for entry level and for this value?
This is going to be my first ever build.
( I cant access microcenter, amazon, or ebay from my country)

solid start for the price with the bending of AMD recently if and when you save $ and want to you could drop a 4000 series ryzen on that at a later date. For games you say you play now it will do those no problem.

There is nothing wrong with that build but you need more storage. Try to find the cheapest 1TB SSD you can. Don't worry about fan hubs and the like the MB has more than enough 4 pin fan adapters for your case and splitters are cheaper than buying a hub.

In general terms/overall, yes it is fine for your stated purpose.

However, I know from previous threads like this, you will now be subjected to like a gazillion replies stating that you should or should not choose this component or that one for various reasons. I hope you are prepared for this

Almost everyone on here has one opinion or another on any particular set-up and/component and will be happy to explain to you why they think their answer is the right one, so get ready....

Thanks, and yes that is the main reason i am considering the b450 mobo, for future upgrades.

 

[joemama]

I would suggest getting a 3200MHz RAM

 

[Solid State Soul ( SSS )]

Would recommend replacing the CPU to the R5 1600 AF.

Except he would be really pushing it considering the board's VRM.

 

[Countryside]

Looks fine, but for PSU at that price range i would reccomend something like EVGA 500BQ and for the cpu at the moment their is no point on buying first gen ryzen so if you cant get the 1600AF buy an 2600 is usualluy just 10-20euros more. As for ram, stick to brands like Adata, Kingston, G.Skill, Patriot, Crucial also it's always good to check the motherboard qvl list for best compatibility.

 

[Deleted member 67555]

That looks good to me.
If you can get a 1600 AF or 2600 for around the same price get one of those and spend less on the fans.
If you don't change any parts I think you'll be just fine.

 

[xtreemchaos]

thats a good build mate, theres one thing id change and thats the gpu id go for a rx580 8gb because 4gb dont really cut it nowa days.

 

[oxrufiioxo]

I'd be looking at a set of 3000 or 3200 ram on the qvl and maybe a better psu.


Also that mobo isn't very good I'd try to fit in a b450 mortar max.

 

[FreedomEclipse]

I personally dont like that powersupply but the rest looks ok.

That's a very decent allocation of budget for your first build; Well-balanced with the money spent where it matters most.

As others have said, try for at least DDR4-3000 or 3200 but don't spend too much extra on it - up to €70 for a quality DDR4-3000 kit and €80 for DDR4-3200. If it costs more than that where you live then don't bother, you should spend any spare budget on the graphics card.

The RX570 4GB is still an amazing deal, but yes - even at 1080p some games will be held back by the 4GB of VRAM on that card. If you can find an 8GB variant it is probably worth spending an extra €25 on one.

A €30 case with €50 of extra cooling is fine if you really really want that particular case, but you're better off buying a €69 case and maybe adding one fan. Can you link us to the shop you're buying from so that we can see what's available to you in your region? I know from experience that case availability is hugely dependent on where you're buying from.

The Asus Prime board is okay and it will work but it has the least VRM headroom of any of the B450 boards on the market, pretty much. Budget Asus stuff is usually overpriced and I think most people will agree that the Prime-K should be priced as one of the cheapest B450 boards on the market. The Asrock B450M Pro4 is usually the same sort of price and has very good VRMs for the money, as does the MSI B450M Gaming Plus and B450-A Pro. If you're never going to drop a better CPU into the socket, then you can save $15 by getting an MSI B450M Pro-VDH or Asrock B450M-HDV and they'll still have better VRMs than the Asus Prime-K.

With a budget of €500 and AAA games taking up 50-100GB these days, I'd make adding a 2TB hard drive a priority. Drop the SSD down to 250GB if you have to, but I doubt it'll actually save you more than $20 which means it's probably not worth doing.

You've basically spent $500 really well but a €575 budget would make this build more than €75 better; €575 is closer to the performance/€ sweet-spot.

If you would like to install more games than those you have listed, consider getting a 1TB SSD. Some games take a lot of space.

Thank you for your suggestions, gjirafamall.com is where i buy from, its on albanian language, and there are no other mobos theres, only these asus prime ones

3000+ ram

8gb variant of that gpu...or a better GPU, period.

Yeah, your motherboard options from there are limited and the Asrock ones aren't as cheap as they are elsewhere. This Gigabyte model is much better for €2 though:

Pllake ame GIGABYTE B450M S2H, AMD B450, 32 GB

The better VRMs and VRM heatsink make it at least €10 better but it also comes with a 32MB BIOS which means you won't run into BIOS problems for Zen 3 support.
You only get a single system fan header with either this board or the ASUS Prime-K though so you should probably buy at least one 2-way fan splitter so that you can run an intake fan and an exhaust fan.

This seems to be the cheapest non-awful case they sell there:

Cooling looks much better than the 1stCool Jazz 1 which has no visible ventilation at either the front or the top! For your extra €28 you get two fans, plenty of intake at the front intakes, and a mesh top exhaust which will help even without any additional fans in there. You don't need to spend €50 on accessories, just buy a single TX3 fan splitter for the two included fans:

Kabllo zgjeruese AKASA per 3-pin

Kablloja Akasa mundeson lidhjen e dy ftoheseve ne nje konektues per pllake ame. Te dy llojet e konektuesve jane te tipit female.

gjirafamall.com

They also have an SG1 without tempered glass for €10 less, but you only get 1 fan included with that version. Buy whichever you want, but it'll end up costing you about the same because you'll want an intake fan pointed directly at the RX570 for sure.
