    Hey guys, I've been researching and looking into getting my first PC build for a few months now and have come up with a build which has been reviewed by a few people. Personally idk much about PC builds and so I'd like to get some more feedback on the pros and cons on this build before i actually go ahead and purchase the parts.

    The link to the build can be found here on PCparticker.com: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/D4YxfH
    For those who dont want to click the link for whatever reason I'll list out the parts here as well.

    Looks like a solid build. I like it all except AMD processor, I'm die hard Intel, and like liquid cooled. Other than that it seems good. What games do you play, or are you into design?

    Currently im very limited to what I play since i have a laptop so the best thing i can run atm is left 4 dead 2 lmfao. I'm hoping to play some of the newer games at around medium to high graphics like battlefield series or pubg, rust / ark, borderlands, etc..

    The only reason why i didn't do liquid cool is for the risk of a leak, and yes IK the chance is extremely small but I'd rather have the peace of mind knowing im good with a air cooled system

    Why not an m.2 SSD? You have a motherboard that supports it. Get something bigger too - 120GB gets eaten up in a heartbeat these days.

    Personally I've never used anything above 80gb in my life but i haven't taken into account the newer games I'd be playing. Thanks for the callout, do you have any specific preferences?

    tbh really decent build, psu is def kinda overkill though.

    edit:

    something about Ryzen you should be aware is the faster your ram speeds, the better. Ryzen really improves with fast memory so you should look into that and maybe reconsider ram.

    I had alot of trouble with this, i wasn't too sure which stick i should get with my setup so i ended up choosing this cheap one. Could you point out some sticks that would work well with my build? Max is 16gb though, anything after that is too much for me

    ram prices are super inflated so goodluck, this is where a bulk of your budget goes.

    https://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...-935-_-Product

    this is the fastest kit in your current price range for 8GB, 3000mhz is really good, but i recommend spending the money and just getting the 16GB kit.

    also i checked psu prices and newegg also has a great deal for the one in OP, $59.

    500GB one is closer to $200 if you want that.

    Also, get more than 8GB of RAM. That's nothing these days. Grab at least 16.
