So, I have just ordered my custom pc and was wondering what you guys think:

Case: NZXT H500 MID-TOWER GAMING CASE (WHITE)

CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3600X

Motherboard: ASUS TUF X470-PLUS GAMING

RAM: 16GB Corsair VENGEANCE DDR4 3200MHz (2 x 8GB)

GPU: 8GB AMD RADEON RX 5700 XT

SSD: 960GB ADATA SU630 2.5" SSD, SATA 6 Gb

PSU: CORSAIR 650W VS SERIES VS-650 POWER SUPPLY

Processor Cooling: Noctua NH-U14S Ultra Quiet Performance CPU Cooler

Monitor: AOC G2590PX 24.5" 144Hz Gaming Monitor


Overall, including the monitor, 3 year warranty and for it to come fully built in came to £1400, is this a fair price?

You'll need a BIOS update likely for your motherboard. I would've gone with a 570 motherboard too purely for the future of it's feature base. Audio interface is limited pretty bad too. 4 3.0 USB ports too is a fairly hard no go to me, especially when looking at things from external HDDs/SSDs and I notice a strong difference in 2.0 and 3.0 connections with my keyboard and mouse. So it just looks like you gave yourself a bit of a limp for accessories in the future. Final note I would not have gone with that power supply. Always go modular, you just don't know how valuable that is until you come at an upgrade.


Overall though, 3600X, 5700 XT, 16GB at 3200. Not a bad build by any means.
