Requesting Review of finalised build

[Priyank Kumar]

So this is my first assembled PC, I made a thread a while ago asking several questions and the build suggestions were really helpful, based on them I have finalised the following build and will be getting it in a few days if the response here gives the OK.

My purpose for this build is AAA gaming(DOOM, The Witcher 3, Dark Souls 3, etc.) at 1080p(not going for above that) ~60FPS at high settings. I do not want to get into over clocking as I am not very savvy with PC components and don't want to risk any damage. I have ~5% room in my budget if there is any upgrade required that is necessary for the stated purpose.

My main concern here is about whether the Motherboard is compatible with the Graphics card and the Wireless adapter as the documentation on asus.com doesn't mention RX 580 or this Wireless adapter among the compatible devices in their respective categories.

Thank you all for the help thus far and taking time for reading this. All responses will be greatly appreciated.

The Power supply is on a low end I would get a 700W for this system other wise great build

 

[Priyank Kumar]

Thanks for pointing that out! I was just going by the average wattage shown by PCPartPicker. Could I request you to suggest a suitable power supply from this site: www.mdcomputers.in around Rs.7000-8000? I am thinking of the Corsair CX750 semi modular one, is that good?

 

[Rexper]

You don't need 700 watts, that's completely false. The PSU you selected is fine. Your build will likely stay under 450 watts at load.
All your parts are compatible. I just suggest going with a set of 2 x 8gb ram instead of separate sets as you have a better chance of both working together.

 

[Priyank Kumar]

Oh, is there a difference between 8GB x 2 vs just two 8GB sticks?

 

[Priyank Kumar]

Only the following sets of 2 are available in my city: https://www.mdcomputers.in/memory/ddr4-memory#/memory-size-16-gb-a389-v16%20GB/kit-type-8gb-x-2-a390-v8GB%20x%202/tested-speed-2400-mhz-a391-v2400%20MHz/sort=p.sort_order/order=ASC/limit=15

but the document for h270m-plus motherboard only mentions the HyperX one, does this mean the rest are not compatible?

Thanks for are the work. Some issues I face is, convincing my parents of an AMD processor will be very hard, they believe only Intel makes worthwhile CPUs. I really want to ship from Newegg as well but they ship from US and warranty on the components will not be valid in India.

 

[Lucky_SLS]

even amazon imports dont cover ur warranty. tough break on the intel cpu one. but regardless, new egg will be cheaper.

A set of 2x8gb is supposedly tested by the manufactures and destined that the two sticks will work together, whereas the other way you have a chance of them not compatible with each other.

To your question, no. It just means they hasn't tested the other ones. The will all be fine as long as they are ddr4 288pin and under 4 sticks.

I'm not sure your parents have actually read reviews of the new AMD Ryzen CPUs. I suggest you show them some.

Yeah that is why I will be buying from retail here.

Ah, thanks.

Also, no they haven't. They just remember is from when we bought a PC years back and the seller told them not to go for AMD.

Guys I just saw this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DL7YcPlJ83c

I was wondering that since I am only aiming for a 60FPS and I only need this for gaming, would it be better to go for G4560?

 

[Lucky_SLS]

the recent AAA games will prove difficult for that g4560. but if u plan to upgrade that g4560 to a 7700 like in 2 years, it might be a good idea.
30k for rx580 i stupendous. the max limit for a 1060 or rx580should be 18-20k not more than that. similarly, dont spend 10k on a b250 mobo. a 6-7k 4 slot one like asrock pro4 is a good choice.
but still, i would say, try to convince ur parents to buy ryzen. its fantastic value n u wont need to change that 1600 for like 5 years
buy the case from mdcomputers.in the cooler master master case lite 5 is on sale for 3650 bucks !

For the AAA games you intend to play, the ryzen 5 will be better off for 60FPS goals with noticeable impovements. If you really need to save money you can go with the g4560 though.

Thanks Lucky and Rexper. I have decided to not go for the G4560, I don't plan to upgrade for some time and want it to be somewhat future proof.

Also yeah, the prices mentioned by PC Part Picker are from amazon . in and they are waaay overpriced. I will be buying from MD Computer or the like and RX 580 is ~22K. That case is also a great suggestion, thanks.

Working on the Ryzen situation but its not looking too promising.

I wanted to ask one more thing: Would an ATX b250 lead to lesser performance than h270? I read h270 have more PCIe 3.0 lanes, would more lanes mean better communication between CPU and GPU or something like that cause I read i5 7500 utilised 16 lanes so 12 lane on b250 might be a bottleneck? I am sorry if this sounds stupid, I don't know how PCIe lanes work

 

[Priyank Kumar]

Ok, Ryzen is a go. How about this?

[Lucky_SLS]

specs wise it ok. u r missing a SSD and micro atx cas might be a bit hard to work with for a first time user. better to for the one i suggested.
and again u just includede parts from pcpp. amazon import prices wont be considered. even amazon and mdcomputers ships their parts from outside. u r just doing it directly from newegg. i see no difference there. u wont need 8gb for 1080p. get a 4gb rx580 and save some cash.
better get them from newegg.
i never asked this. but what is ur budget for the whole setup?
another thing. the XFX rx580 GTS XXX 4gb noe costs 14k in newegg. all other 1060 6gb or rx580 started at 16k before

 

[Priyank Kumar]

Whoops, I meant to put in the case you suggested but I remembered the wrong number. I want to get an SSD but I would have to drop the RAM to to 8GB. My budget is ~75K ideally.

If you buy from MD computers in person there prices are usually comparable to Newegg after including shipping.

 

[Lucky_SLS]

8gb of ram is enough for 1080p gaming. once u use a SSD, u wont use another without them
the master box lite case is outof stock i think. get the antec GX300 case.
