Constructing a novel computer system.
Constructing a novel computer system.
Greetings! I’m putting together my second PC, and I could really use some guidance. Could you please review the specifications below? Specifically, I’m wondering if there are any components I've overlooked. Are there alternative websites where I could purchase these parts at a lower price? And are there any potential performance limitations with this configuration? Also, is the graphics card a suitable choice? Will I require additional fans besides the radiator fan for my CPU? If you have any recommendations or can assess how strong this build will be overall, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your assistance!

Your components are becoming obsolete, and your central processing unit’s cooling fan is incompatible with the AM4 socket.
Below is a significantly improved configuration for approximately $2200:
Ryzen 7 2700 –

ASUS B450 ATX Gaming Motherboard –

Noctua NH-D15 SE-AM4 –
The components are outdated and the CPU fan doesn’t support AM4… Here you go, a much better system for 2200$: Ryzen 7 2700 - https://www.amazon.com/AMD-Ryzen-Process...7B41717Z/; ASUS B450 ATX Gaming Motherboard - https://www.amazon.com/Ryzen-Gaming-Moth...7FKV5HWJ/; Noctua NH-D15 SE-AM4 - https://www.amazon.com/Noctua-NH-D15-SE-...e-Cooler/; Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB 3200MHz C16 - https://www.amazon.com/Corsair-Vengeance...143UM4TC/; Crucial MX500 500GB SSD - https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-MX500-500...784SLQM6/; Seagate BarraCuda Internal Hard Drive 2TB - https://www.amazon.com/Seagate-BarraCuda...000DM006/; ZOTAC GAMING GeForce RTX 2080 - https://www.amazon.com/ZOTAC-GeForce-256...ackplate/; EVGA Supernova 750 G3, 80 Plus Gold - https://www.amazon.com/EVGA-Supernova-Mo...-0750-X1/; ASUS ROG Swift PG278QR 27” 1440p 1ms 165Hz with G-SYNC - https://www.amazon.com/Swift-PG278QR-G-S...g-Monitor/. For the case, you can stay with the one you have peaked just make sure it can support the mobo and the CPU cooler, and for windows just download the installer for the Microsoft website and buy a 5$ key on eBay.
