Hello, Tomshardware!
I'm getting a new Gaming PC and I have picked these components.

Case: Phanteks Eclipse P400S Tempered Glass
Processor: AMD Ryzen 7 2700x
Processor Cooler: AMD Wraith Prism (Stock)
Graphics Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 1070 Ti 8gb SC
Motherboard: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK
RAM: Corsair 16GB (2x8) DDR4 3000Mhz CL15 Vengeance LPX Black
SSD: Samsung 860 EVO 500GB M.2
HDD: A 2 TB HDD I will build into this computer.
Case Fan: Corsair ML140 PRO RGB 2-pack (w Lighting Node PRO)
Power Supply: Seasonic FOCUS Plus 650W Gold

These components fills up my budget fully.
(about 1785 dollars)

I wanna use this computer to play video games on ultra over 60 fps the upcoming years, and going to video edit, animate, etc.
Right now, I'm planning to play games like Black Ops 4, Battlefield 5, Fallout 76.

What do you think? Is there something I should change to save money or get better performance?
Give my picks some critique and tips.

Just a tip: use PC Part Picker to post these lists. It makes it easier because we can see your currency (USD, AUD, etc) and the list is easy to read since it shows prices for all parts.
If you make this in a pc part picker list I'll see if there's anything you could improve:)

The thing is, I'm actually getting these parts from a swedish site part picker which also builds the pc for me.
And the swedish economy in components is different.

Do you think my parts would run too hot on phanteks with those 2 extra case fans?
Also, I have to switch my 2 140mm corsair fans of choice to something else because the sale vanished.
Any recommendations of fans?

I looked into the meshify c earlier when picking a case, and I don't like that it isn't as long as most cases, and might not fit some builds. I also don't really know if the noise levels of the meshify will bother me or not.

But on the phanteks if I have 2 good 140mm front fans and 1 fan from the case back, will I have to worry about my components running too hot?

About how many degrees lower does meshify c run than the phanteks?
And is there a big difference between the temps on the H500 from the phanteks? It seems like the H500 is closed too.

So, I picked the meshify C, and it comes with 2 fans.
How many extra fans will I need?
And are those fans coming with the case any good?

Alright man, with these replacements (meshify c, other fans). Do you think this machine will handle games in ultra over 60 fps in the upcoming years and animating/video editing?

I have ordered this pc weeks ago, forgot to pick a solution for the thread. Yes, I went with bequiet and went with b450 tomahawk for its good vrms. I dont need a much higher end motherboard, as this one got all the stuff I want.
