Ryzen 2600X build, Need case/psu suggestions

AlienIsGOD · Jul 23, 2019

So i finally have the means to do a full system upgrade (minus rx 480) and here is what i have come up with:

Ryzen 2600X https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=4_1210_64&item_id=120459
DDR4 16GB Team T-Force Dark https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_1326&item_id=129181 may opt for RGB Team Group ram
M.2 SSD https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=179_1229_1296&item_id=123893
Gigabyte X470 Aorus https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=26_1207_1205_1505&item_id=121085
or
Gigabyte B450 Aorus Pro Wifi https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=26_1207_1205_1505&item_id=123696

I would like PSU advice and case suggestions (would like to keep the price of each component to ~$100 CAD)

Mobo may change depending on what is in stock and if i decide to order a board more to my liking. Is an x470 worth it over the B450 board i posted?

Would like to keep components to Canada Computers website as I have one in town and hate shipping times and customs

https://ca.pcpartpicker.com/product...x-8gb-ddr4-3200-memory-tdpgd416g3200hc14adc01 Get this ram instead. Best 3200 B die on the market.
For PSU get Seasonic.

Not sure why you're going 2600x when you can get 3600 for not that much more.

Literally $50 cad to move to 3600.

cucker tarlson · Jul 23, 2019

save $50 on case (still very decent,just needs a couple of fans added down the road)

Tight budget and 3600x is over 100 more.

dgianstefani · Jul 23, 2019

You don't need the 3600x, just the 3600, which is still better than the 2600x.

no need for 3600x just the regular 3600
stay on b450 if that's what's required.

AlienIsGOD · Jul 23, 2019

Would like a case with a glass panel side and psu shroud ie. Nzxt h500. Psu looks solid tho.

What about motherboard? X470 or b450?

dgianstefani · Jul 23, 2019

For the 3600? B450 is all that's needed for 6 cores.

Put the saved money into better ram and cpu.

definitely b450 if that's what's required to save for 3600.

AlienIsGOD · Jul 23, 2019

the 3600 is over $70 more than a 2600X. I'm on a fixed income so I'm really trying to keep costs as low as possible.

Case looks great. I think i will go with the 275R and the Seasonic PSU

dgianstefani · Jul 23, 2019

It's really not.

Kapone33 · Jul 23, 2019

Get As Rock instead of GIgabyte boards. The As Rock B450 Pro 4 or X470 Master SLI will be more satisfactory in the long run. I have found that Gigabyte boards add more voltage to the CPU and SOC than other boards The Team Force RGB RAM is actually cheaper at Newegg. In terms of a PSU Corsair make really good PSUs but make sure you get one with a 10 year warranty. If you can afford it then Seasonic does make sense.

pretty case vs noticeably better cpu.you decide.

3600 none X is The One for budget considerations.

AlienIsGOD · Jul 23, 2019

The Pro 4 looks good, will switch to that and see if the 3600 can squeeze in

this thing almost matches 8700K stock in gaming when oc'd.it outperforms a 2700 by 12% let alone a 2600.
you need dis man.

frankly if it clocked to 4.8ghz I'd sell my 5775c for it.

AlienIsGOD · Jul 23, 2019

AsRock b450 pro 4 -$125
M.2 SSD Corsair -$100
R5 3600 -$280
PSU Seasonic 650 -$118
DDR4 Ram -$110 https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=24_311_1326&item_id=129179
Case -$90

Total $823 plus taxes 13% $932 (may get warranties on a few parts so say $1000 even)

that's what my revised list looks like

Corsair force series mp300. Will get a better one down the line, will be moving my 240 data ssd and 1tb hdd to new build for now as well

okay drive,but you don't need nvme for a home/gaming build.
wd blue 3d is a great budget sata ssd,see if that looks like a bettter value option.
investing into high speed drives on ryzen doesn't pay off anyway.

PCI-E 4.0 SSD tested - slower than 3.0

seems like with the exception of synthetic scores the drives are performing much better on intel's pci-e 3.0 if you take a look at small file copy,multitasking (simultaneous copy+install) and installation times, the same drive is 15% faster on intel's 3.0 than ryzen's 4.0 LINK TO FULL REVIEW...

i just kinda want an M.2 drive as ive never had one and my board does have 2 slots

480GB will be nice for OS and a few games

then a cheap one like mp300 is a good choice.it's still on toshiba's 64layer bics,does use slc and dram buffering too,just pci-e x2 and lower end controller.

btw here's the vrm tier list for b450/x470

https://i.redd.it/7n48gewun0p21.png

seems like pro4 would do just fine but I'd get the b450-a pro.

also,check the price of ex900 drive too.
