I’ve already touched 1.4L out of my 1.5L budget. I’ll willing to spurge 15-20K more for PC case, PSU, Fans (if not already in PC case), GPU stand and other accessories. I already have a Mouse, keyboard and a Monitor. Will purchase a headphones and mousepad now if in budget or later if not.
Requirements -
CASE - A small-medium case for a M-ATX build. Sturdy and build to last as I’ll be travelling every now and often (2-3 Years) and I want to pack it in a steel box with original packaging for safe transport. RBG is a non requirement but I’ve kept of the asthethics of MoBo, GPU, RAM and cooler white so I would appreciate something that will align with the colour scheme. Something that is easy to cable manage will be appreciated. ANT products look on a cheaper side but I would rather prefer well known branded Case.
PSU - Anything that will fit the above case. Has to be modular. I’m not certain about +80 Broze,silver,gold certification so I request if forum members can shed some light on this.
@Raoskyneo, @el_diablo Its already purchased. Only part I impulse buy turns out like this. WIll just hope for the best. Also, I am getting a 7800X3d not a 9800x3d which this chart suggests.
As for case, I have shortlisted to the fwg white cases.
P1 - Lain Li Lancool 217 - 11.3K
P2 - Corsair Frame 4000D RS ARGB - 9.47K
P3 - NZXT H6 Flow White - 9.69K
P4 - Cooler Master Elite 600 ARGB - 9K
I am leaning towards Lian Li 217 because of the 6 preinstalled fans and good reviews.
PSU Finalised to - Corsair RM850x - 11.6. White one is about 2K more.
Gigabyte B850M Gaming X will suffice, costs under 15k or so in India. Take the loss & resell the AsRock mobo locally, though anyone aware of the issue will never buy an AsRock AM5 mobo.
FYI - can easily save money on the CPU cooler. Forgot to notice earlier but 360mm with mATX cabinet might get a bit problematic. CH160 plus & some other more compact cases can’t be considered. AP201 & A3 supports 360mm AIO though. Not an issue if you consider an ATX case, in which case get Gigabyte B850 Gaming X WiFi for under 17k instead, will get 3rd M.2 slot.
AG620 will be enough to cool 7800X3D. I am using a puny AK400 on my 9800X3D but my case is a big ATX one, so has plenty of airflow.
Like I said, most of the parts have already been purchased incl the Cooler. Hence I am leaning towards Lian Li 217 as it will accept most traditional builds. As for the Mobo, I might just swing it. Besides, as it is purchased from US, I’ll get reduced prices due to lack of Indian Inovice.
