I desperately need a new PC and I've made a part list. I plan on playing games like Minecraft (main), Rocket League and Among Us, and I'd appreciate some help. I live in the UK and part prices are very different here, so I'd be better off with help from someone in the UK.

Parts list:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X 3.7 GHz 8-Core Processor

Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) DDR4-3600 CL18 Memory

Storage: Crucial P2 500 GB M.2-2280 NVME Solid State Drive

Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2060 6 GB WINDFORCE Video Card

Case: Corsair 275R Airflow ATX Mid Tower Case

Power Supply: KOLINK ENCLAVE 600 W 80+ Gold Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply

Case Fan: Corsair AF120 (2018) 52 CFM 120 mm Fan

Case Fan: Corsair AF120 (2018) 52 CFM 120 mm Fan

Case Fan: Corsair AF120 (2018) 52 CFM 120 mm Fan

Case Fan: Corsair AF120 (2018) 52 CFM 120 mm Fan

Monitor: MSI Optix G241 23.8" 1920x1080 144 Hz Monitor

Motherboard: MSI x470 Gaming Plus Max Motherboard

Keyboard: Logitech G213 Prodigy Keyboard

Custom: Glorious Model O Matte Black Mouse

**Total: £1113.79**

I need help on the motherboard, monitor and keyboard mainly, but any help is appreciated. If you don't live in the UK, the price of every single part will probably be much lower than it is in the UK, so don't come screaming at me! I'd also appreciate any help for any parts that I haven't included in this list that I'll need for this PC to work, e.g. DisplayPort or HDMI monitor cables. Thank you! (Please don't suggest new RAM, trust me - I'm an expert.)

Hello
Dont buy the Kolink PSU. It might be cheap but they are cheap for a reason. If you can get one of the following makes then choose one & post back here for opinions.

Corsair
Seasonic
Superflower
Phanteks AMP
BeQuiet

A few small changes on your build.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £1,170.37 (includes shipping: £19.62)
​


You could probably just use a 1660 super instead of the 2060 with the games you mentioned. Also maybe buy a 5600xt as the monitor has freesync and the nvida cards cant use that AFAIK.

My basket at Overclockers UK:
Total: £570.48 (includes shipping: £10.50)​
​

Same reason the 2700x is pointless and the 3600 woudl be faster in most things anyway (if you can find one for sale)
I would normally say ignore the x and xt model of the 3600 but they are the only ones in stock at OC.

Sounds expensive for minecraft, rocket league and among us

I'd personally recommend spending less.
I'd also recommend looking at arctic fans. Really good price/performance

This is a UK based forum (maybe you got confused with the US overclockers(.com) forum?). This seems a pretty indulgent build for rocket league and minecraft.
