    Anybody want to suggest some builds for me?

    No need to buy the GPU right now, I can wait, but I'm thinking I could start buying the other components now


    Budget 2500 euro

    Can buy now or wait a few months, current PC with 1660ti and AMD 2600x is working fine

    I haven't built a PC before


    PC will be used for gaming

    * Apex Legends - 1080p

    * DCS - 4k

    * MSFS - 4k


    I already have:

    * All peripherals

    * SSD - 1 TB M.2 for use as boot drive

    * two monitors

    * 43" 4k 60hz for DCS and MSFS

    * 27" 1080 144hz for Apex


    preferences:

    AMD for CPU

    Nvidia for GPU (shadowplay)

    thanks K.O

    I Don't see a power supply in there, can you suggest one?

    I think I should look for another case, 35 euro to deliver seems a bit steep

    105 total for the case seems reasonable to me; it has 2x USB + 1x USB-C while something NZXT H510, be quiet 500DX, Corsair 4000D Airflow only have 1x USB + 1x USB-C for the same price.

    For PSU, any Corsair RM/RMx 750W will give you peace of mind with 10 years warranty. Seasonic Focus GX & NZXT C-series would also have 10yr.

    why choose 5800x over a 5600x?

    5600x is cheaper to buy and uses less power, pretty much same performance, or am i missing something


    I have already ordered all this from amazon.de and also a PSU


    the power usage of the 5800x might bother me


    then again Im not sure what I'm talking about just hastily reviewing stuff after having already ordered

    They have the same performance in games today but you have the budget for an 8-core; I'd recommend the upgrade for long-term.

    Power usage is higher but still below 180W. You could set it to ECO mode (65W) in BIOS if it truly bothers you.
