Is everything OK with this PC build?

SandPenguin96 · May 23, 2017

Hi everyone!. I'm building my first gaming PC after 6 years of my last one.

I'll keep the current Power Supply, Case, and HDDs. They'll be fine.

All i just want to know: Will these parts work correctly together?.

So, here's the list of components that i will buy very soon:

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 1500X 3.5GHz-3.7GHz
Motherboard: GA-AB350M-Gaming 3
Memory: 2x8GB G.Skill Flare X 3200Mhz
Video Card: Sapphire RX 580 8GB Nitro+

So, that's it!. Now, some things that i know are:

- The Motherboard needs a BIOS update, to support Ryzen 5 processors. I got that.
- I need to configure manually the RAM sticks through BIOS settings to get those 3200MHz.
- I won't do Crossfire neither SLI.
- My PSU has the 6-pin and 8-pin required for that graphics card.
- The Memory is on the QVL of the Motherboard.

Am i right?. Am i forgetting something?

Thanks for your responses.

Build looks good, may i ask what Power Supply you intend on using? It may have the appropriate connectors but if it isn't a good quality Power Supply i would have to advise you get a new one with the build if it's 6+ years old. Other than that, the parts will work fine together and you seem to have done prior research into what you need which is good. Hope this helps

Hi, thanks! and yes, this is my current PSU, i bought it 1-2 years ago:
PSU: Thermaltake TR2 TR-600
According to the PSU Calculator from Outervision.com. I think it'll do the work just fine.

It will indeed, just wanted to make sure you weren't using a 6+ year old PSU especially if it was lower quality. Good luck with the upgrade!
