In the process of building a new PC

ashramnavivi · 30 Jun 2020

I never knew that the forum was dedicated to this part as well, but I recently found that out, anyway, I'm in the process of building a new PC, I would cop the next parts:
CASE: I need your suggestion
PSU: CORSAIR RM650x Series 650W
MOTHERBOARD: MSI B450 TOMAHAWK MAX
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600 3.60GHz AM4 BOX Wraith Stealth
RAM: G.SKILL 2x8GB Trident Z RGB DDR4 3200MHz CL16 KIT F4-3200C16D-16GTZR
M2. SSD: SAMSUNG 500GB 970 EVO Plus M.2 PCIe M.2 2280 MZ-V7S500BW
GPU: used 1080Ti
It would cost me around 1100$ in total, now I want to hear your opinions on what should I change, what would be the best budget option

I would go for B-Die Ram

B-Die Finder

Here is a case recommendation. Great airflow, solid case and not to expensive

Hi,
Yeah just look for 3200c14 not 3200c16 and you'll be good.
Save you the searching
G.SKILL TridentZ Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Intel Z370 Platform Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C14D-32GTZSK - Newegg.com

Lower bin still good
G.SKILL TridentZ Series 32GB (2 x 16GB) 288-Pin DDR4 SDRAM DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) Intel Z370 Platform Desktop Memory Model F4-3200C15D-32GTZSK - Newegg.com

Since OP is building a AMD wouldn't the Neo series be better.

My suggestion would be to opt for the Ryzen 7 series CPU.....3700X/3800X.

Hi,
No b-die doesn't care which platform it's on it just works.

Thank you very much...good to know. Well that's the first of the day for learning something new!

Hi,
Yeah it's probably the best universal memory made well worth a little more
If not sold and shipped by newegg wait a little while/ monitor they will eventually show it cheaper.
Only question is does one want 4x8gb kit or 2x16gb kit or 4x16gb kit

If you're fairly new to building and aren't really into overclocking there's absolutely no need in chasing b-die RAM. As one who has some, it's not going to give you anything more than a non-B-Die kit except it may overclock a little better. And when I say overclock, I'm not talking XMP settings, I'm talking beyond XMP.

in keeping things simple, B-Die RAM modules are cherry picked components to give the best overclocking performance. And you can't just walk into a store and say give me a pack of B-Die RAM. You have to know what you're looking for as posted by Dude in the B-Die finder link. "After" you figure out what kits might be B-Die, then purchase that specific kit.

Anyway I think people should keep things simple before advising extreme parts and measures. If you came in and said, I'm building a system and I want to best parts available for overclocking, than the B-Die discussion would be applicable.

My two cents.
