Windows PC build what to buy for 1000,- euros

[Reallity]

Hi Guys,

 

Haven't played much in the last couple of months, and now because of Corona i have to work from home. 

So this morning I ate my egg, drank some milk and booted my pc only to see it crash and not recover. 

It is quite old and in need of replacement so i've decided to buy/build a new pc. I want to spend roughly 1000 euro's.

 

Besides gaming i will be using it for Photoshop so it should have some decent rams.

 

Would love to hear your recommendations as I'm quite green in this department.

So i was thinking something like this:
 

Processors	AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Boxed	€ 174,-
Moederborden	MSI B450-A Pro Max	€ 95,05
Behuizingen	be quiet! Pure Base 500 Zwart	€ 64,95
Geheugen intern	Crucial Ballistix Sport LT BLS2K8G4D32AESBK	€ 86,05
Voedingen	Cooler Master V550 Gold	€ 71,-
Solid state drives	Crucial P1 1TB	€ 112,90
Videokaarten	Sapphire Radeon RX 5700 XT Pulse	€ 427,-
	Total	€ 1.030,95

 

 

Or the RTX2060 super armor instead

So, You want to replace the computer innards...

Old Case Motherboard: ATX motherboard form factor?  Water cooled CPU Case would be good

Check compatibility of everything!

Sold state Hard Drive highly recommended for Operating System

Seagate FireCuda SSD SATA 520 GB requires PCIe Gen4 ×4, NVMe 1.3 Interface

TB SATA Internal Storage Hard Drive

PCI Express Video card: Nvidia GTX 1060 is good

I have 700 Watt Power Supply

125 Watt CPU is the best, That will need a Server or Workstation Motherboard

RAM must be on motherboard's compatibility list

Captn spoke before me.
MSi used to be top notch hardware, not anymore. For the sake of keeping things simple, let's say they cut too many corners nowadays.
Let's go with AsRock.

Let's see what else there is in this build list.
Solid CPU? Check.
Solid case? Check.
Solid RAM? Ehh... we can do better.
Solid PSU? Nope. Let's go with a 650Watt.
Solid SSD? Check.
Solid GPU? Nope. Let's go with nVidia.

Here's what I've come up with:

PCPartPicker Part List

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.6 GHz 6-Core Processor  ($174.99 @ B&H)
Motherboard: ASRock X470 Taichi ATX AM4 Motherboard  ($209.99 @ Newegg)
Memory: G.Skill Trident Z Neo 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 Memory  ($119.99 @ Newegg)
Storage: Crucial P1 1 TB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive  ($109.99 @ B&H)
Video Card: EVGA GeForce RTX 2060 SUPER 8 GB SC BLACK GAMING Video Card  ($383.98 @ Newegg)
Case: be quiet! Pure Base 500 ATX Mid Tower Case  ($84.90 @ B&H)
Power Supply: Corsair CXM 650 W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-modular ATX Power Supply  ($94.99 @ Best Buy)
Total: $1178.83
Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available

Why the changes?
-MSi is releasing crap now.
-RAM is iffy for Ryzen imo. Let's go with a high-speed certified kit.
-Another 100watts on your PSU will give you room for upgrades to your CPU or GPU in the future.
-AMD GPUs are riddled with driver bugs atm. I recently switched from AMD to nVidia after 8+ years of using AMD GPUs. I can't recommend them at all.
