I last built a PC about 5 years ago so I haven't kept up with the hardwear improvements over the years. I am enjoy FS but i believe my current build is not enough for the new MFS so have wimped out and am looking at the likes of Competitor info removed
To cut a long story short this is what i have come up with:-
CORSAIR iCUE 220T RGB AIRFLOW MID TOWER GAMING CASE
Processor (CPU) AMD Ryzen 7 3700X Eight Core CPU (3.6GHz-4.4GHz/36MB CACHE/AM4)
Motherboard ASUS® TUF X570-PLUS GAMING (USB 3.2 Gen 2, PCIe 4.0, CrossFireX) - ARGB Ready!
Memory (RAM) 32GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3000MHz (2 x 16GB)
Graphics Card 8GB AMD RADEON™ RX 5700 XT - HDMI, DP - DX® 12
1st Storage Drive 1TB PCS 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb (520MB/R, 470MB/W)
2nd Storage Drive 512GB PCS 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb (520MB/R, 450MB/W)
1st M.2 SSD Drive 500GB SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2, PCIe NVMe (up to 3500MB/R, 3200MB/W)
Power Supply CORSAIR 650W RM SERIES™ MODULAR 80 PLUS® GOLD, ULTRA QUIET
Power Cable 1 x 1 Metre UK Power Cable (Kettle Lead)
Processor Cooling PCS FrostFlow 100 RGB Series High Performance CPU Cooler (AMD)
Thermal Paste ARCTIC MX-4 EXTREME THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY COMPOUND
Sound Card ONBOARD 6 CHANNEL (5.1) HIGH DEF AUDIO (AS STANDARD)
Have I gone a little overboard? I do want to run it at the higher spec that MS recommend.
Any pointers as to whether i need to tone down areas would be appreciated.
My current spec:-
ASUS P8Z68-VLX
Intel 2500K
ATI Radeon HD 5670 GPU
PSU 450W
Loads of SSD!
Cheers
