Ryzen 3 Build

[R3v4n]

Hi Everyone -

I haven't built a desktop in a few years now been using laptops because I needed to move it around, that's no longer a factor so back to desktops woot.

I'm trying to spec a mid range Ryzen PC coming in around £1000 -

Right now I'm looking at

MSI X570 Carbon Pro
Ryzen 5 3600
AMD 5700XT or RX Vega 56
HyperX Predator 16GB 3200Mhz CL16
RM550X PSU
970 Evo Plus 500Gb
CoolerMaster Masterbox Q500L

The RAM is whats throwing me the most at the moment it seems when I read online the recommended stuff is GSkill Trident Z RGB but it's very expensive lol, lots of people talking about compatiblity issues with ryzen cpu's and different types of ram.

For at least the immediate term I'll be playing at 1080p Ultra I haven't got a 1440p screen at the moment perhaps in the future could be a while before I bother investing in one (only recently bought my current one).

I think its a decent spec sits around £1000ish.

Any glaring issues with it?

Hi,

This would be my suggestion add what GPU you like Vega 56 will be fine for 1080p but 5700XT will support a future upgrade to 1440p if you fancied it.
