71-90K First PC Build Need HELP!!!!

[Saaz]

And between b650m gaming and b650 s pro wifi??

Gaming has 2 ram slots, while pro wifi has 4
Pro has more audio and usb ports and slightly better vrm

Also one thing for future upgrades, with ddr5 it better to use 2 sticks than 4 sticks, you will have better stability. It's generally no recommended to use more than 2 sticks unless you need more than 64GB ram.

So basically its okay for me to go with msi gaming??

 

[Anuj333]

rather than going with that deepcool psu, go for an upper tier psu

Its still a C on the Cultist Tier list, so it's enough for the setup

Yes it's fine. You can't use it with a ryzen 9 part though, even down the line.
You'll need to spring for the b650m gaming plus wifi if you don't want to have to worry about it in the future. Watch
Hardware unboxed testing b550 to get an honest idea between the different boards.
Keep an eye out for debug LEDs though, they are worth spending extra for.

If gaming is the main priority, would be better to go with 7800X3D, which it will be able to handle fine

ok ill look out for that

is there any such tear lists for ram & SSD??

 

[Rockfella]

OP I would buy the same config without gpu now then save up for gpu and buy later.

As far as Ram goes, it doesn't matter. Just look for the cheapest kit 2x16gb kit with 6000mhz. Don't buy a single stick of ram because its like trying to run on 1 leg. Plus it will be very hard to get a matched stick later. Same models can have different company dies that behave differently. Its a very deep rabbit hole and you could face a whole lot of issues of instability, chasing down timings and volateges. Randomly once a week to once a month, your system wont post and you will have to clear cmos.

For SSD, crucial p5 plus is available for 8.5k for 1 tb. a step up is samsung 990 pro 1tb for 11k
oh and crucial p3 plus is available for 5.7k. That's a good price to performance pcie gen 4 ssd.

i have build my whole config, around the GPU, or I would have gone for better CPU, and but ill definitely think about it

there also something known as CL in ram, does it not matter??, and for ssd I was thinking of going with WD sn770

 

[karanwk]

For the SSD, yea that sounds good. Read all the specs list and make sure you have understood what you are buying. Then it's completely subjective. That's the nice part of DIY, you have options.
For RAM, yes, CL represents latency in the RAM. How long it takes to talk to the cpu. The lower, the better.
The price for lower latency RAM becomes crazy expensive very fast and the performance difference is not something you will notice in everyday use. Only benchmarks will show it.
There is a type of person who enjoys messing with things in bios, trying things and chasing higher benchmark scores. For them, the expensive RAM with high speed and low latency makes sense because it means its good quality silicon. For most of us, just take the cheapest option that looks good. If the price difference to lower latency RAM (with the same speed) is low, go for the lower latency one.
